To identify PGA Championship contenders, we can combine current form with what we know about one of the PGA Tour’s stickier courses: Quail Hollow in Charlotte.

The PGA Championship was first played in 1916 and was a match-play event for the first 42 years of its existence. It's been played every year except when it paused for 1917, 1918 and 1919 for World World I and 1943 due to World War II. In 1958 it changed to stroke play with Dow Finsterwald the first winner after the format changed.
