Golf legend Tiger Woods is part of the 2022 PGA Championship field at Southern Hills Country Club
Fifteen former PGA Champions will play in the 2022 PGA Championship, which gets underway from Southern Hills Country Club on Thursday.
Tiger Woods, Brooks Koepka, Justin Thomas, Rory McIlroy and Collin Morikawa are among the former champions set to tee it up in the second major of the year.
The 2022 PGA Championship field will also include the likes of Scottie Scheffler, Jon Rahm and Jordan Spieth. The first 2022 PGA Championship tee times begin at 8 a.m. ET, while Tiger Woods will begin at 9:11 a.m. ET.
Woods finished on top of the leaderboard the last time Southern Hills hosted the PGA Championship in 2007.
Woods, a 15-time major champion, has won the Wanamaker Trophy four times in his career. According to the latest 2022 PGA Championship odds from Caesars Sportsbook, Woods is 50-1 to finish on top of the leaderboard.
Should Woods be included in your 2022 PGA Championship bets or should you look elsewhere in the PGA odds for value?
Before locking in your 2022 PGA Championship picks, be sure to see the golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
SportsLine’s proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June 2020. In fact, it’s up almost $9,000 on its best bets since that point, nailing tournament after tournament.
At the 2022 Masters, McClure’s model was all over Scottie Scheffler’s first career major championship victory heading into the weekend.
The model also nailed Tiger Woods’ exact finishing position at Augusta National before the tournament started (47th). In addition, McClure’s best bets included Collin Morikawa winning outright at the 2021 Open Championship, even though he was listed as a massive 40-1 long shot.
This same model has also nailed a whopping eight majors entering the weekend. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns.
Now that the 2022 PGA Championship field is taking shape, SportsLine simulated the event 10,000 times, and the results were surprising.

Model’s top 2022 PGA Championship predictions
One huge shocker the model is calling for at the PGA Championship 2022: Rory McIlroy, a 20-time PGA Tour champion and one of the top favorites, stumbles at Southern Hills and barely cracks the top 10.
Coming off a second-place finish at the Masters and a fifth-place finish at the Wells Fargo Championship, McIlroy is back up to No. 7 in the world after falling to as low as 16 late last season.
However, McIlroy hasn’t won a major in nearly eight years after winning four before his 26th birthday, while the PGA Championship setups haven’t seemed to favor his game in recent years.
McIlroy has finished outside the top 20 in five of his last six starts at the PGA Championship and his wedge play could be particularly damaging at Southern Hills.
McIlroy ranks 209th in proximity to the hole on shots between 50 and 125 yards this season. Those scoring clubs will be needed on a Gil Hanse redesign that emphasizes precision.
The model has also revealed where Tiger Woods will finish in the 2022 PGA Championship. It’s been 15 years since Woods won the 2007 PGA Championship at Southern Hills.
Woods dominated the competition, winning by two strokes, despite shooting a 71 in the opening round.
Woods fired a 63 in the second round of the 2007 PGA Championship, which remains his lowest round in a major. Woods’ 63 still remains the course record at Southern Hills, so he’ll be confident he can play well this week.
Plus, Woods is tied with Sam Snead for the most wins in the history of professional golf and trails only Jack Nicklaus (18) in major victories.
Woods is a long shot to win the PGA Championship 2022, according to oddsmakers, but his success at Southern Hills and extensive knowledge of the course could be major X-factors.

How to make 2022 PGA Championship picks The model is also targeting three golfers with odds of 20-1 or longer who will make surprising runs. Anyone who backs these long shots could hit it big. You can only see them here.
