100th PGA Championship at Bellerive

Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The final major of the season kicks off on Thursday afternoon as Bellerive Country Club hosts the 100th PGA Championship, where Justin Thomas is looking to defend the title that he claimed this time last year.

Thomas comes into the tournament in red-hot form after winning the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational last weekend, but he faces plenty of competition to retain his title. Both Jason Day and Rory McIlroy, past winners of this competition, have proven competitive over the last few weeks, while Dustin Johnson heads into the weekend as the favourite following his impressive final round at Firestone that cemented his status as world No 1.

The first round at the PGA Championship gets underway at 12:50 BST (full tee-times available here) with the final groups set to head out onto the course around 20:30 BST this evening, and there’s no shortage of action given that McIlroy and Thomas are joined by Tiger Woods in one of the most competitive groups over the first two days.
