PGA Championship 2025: Weather drastically improves, no preferred lies in Round 1
After enduring roughly 5 inches of rain in the last 10 days, including downpours this week, Thursday offers a much brighter forecast for the start of the 107th PGA Championship.
Temperatures are expected to reach the mid-80s with winds blowing up to 15 mph — and no rain at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina.
There will also be no preferred lies. PGA officials said Wednesday that the field will play the ball as it lies in the fairway. Quail Hollow is equipped with a SubAir system.

2025 PGA Championship in photos
Scottie Scheffler won the 107th PGA Championship at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte on Sunday. Why it matters: This was the second time Charlotte hosted the PGA Championship, one of golf's four majors. For Scheffler, now a three-time major winner, it was his first time hoisting the Wanamaker Trophy. It was his first solo major win in Charlotte (he was part of Team USA's win during the Presidents Cup here in 2022). Catch up quick: Charlotte started off the week soggy. Fans weren't allowed on the course Monday due to the weather and storms caused delays throughout the week. By Sunday it was a runaway for Scheffler. The No. 1 player in the world, reminded everyone why he's the best player on the planet, shooting -11 under par for the four-round, 72-hole championship. By the numbers: A fun stat to share with your friends and coworkers — this was Scheffler's 15th PGA Tour win. Since 1950, only two other players have snagged 15 wins faster: Tiger Woods in 3 years and 32 days. Jack Nicklaus in 3 years and 45 days. Now Scheffler in 3 years and 94 days. Between the lines: Sine Charlotte hosted its first major in 2017, roughly $40 million has been invested into Quail Hollow Club, according to Johnny Harris, the club's president. That's not just the golf course and practice areas, Harris tells me, but facilities, roads and utilities as well. What's next: Harris is interested in bringing more major events to Quail Hollow, in addition to being an annual stop on the PGA Tour with the Truist Championship. "We will continue to pursue international and national events like a Ryder Cup, like a PGA Championship and some of the others," Harris says. But his main priority is bringing the best golfers in the world to the Carolinas. Here we look at the PGA Championship in photos:

Rory McIlroy Had Blunt 2-Word Response to PGA Championship Delay
Weather has played a significant role in the 2025 PGA Championship so far this week. It all started when heavy rains hampered or outright ruined some practice rounds and left the grounds with standing water through the first round. During that first round golfers were forced to deal with mud balls that altered the trajectory of their shots. While some played it off as part of the tournament, defending champion Xander Schauffele was not pleased. Advertisement 'Had a ridiculous mud ball there on 16 with Scottie,' said Schauffele, made the cut on the number. 'We were in the middle of the fairway, and I don't know, we had to aim right of the grandstands probably. I'm not sure. I aimed right of the bunker and it whipped in the water and Scottie whipped it in the water, as well. It is what it is, and a lot of guys are dealing with it, but it's just unfortunate to be hitting good shots and to pay them off that way. It's kind of stupid. 'I'm not the only guy. I'm just in front of the camera. I wouldn't want to go in the locker room because I'm sure a lot of guys aren't super happy with sort of the conditions there. I feel like the grass is so good, there is no real advantage to cleaning your ball in the fairway. The course is completely tipped out. It sucks that you're kind of 50/50 once you hit the fairway.' The weather wasn't quite done playing a role, though. On Saturday, May 17 the start of the third round was pushed back thanks to "dangerous" weather in the area that eventually forced the PGA of America into an unfortunate situation. The delay came shortly before Schauffele and Rory McIlroy were set to tee off, with the latter caught on video giving the PGA of America a piece of his mind. As he started walking towards the course cameras caught McIlroy saying, "f*** off," after the horn blew. Advertisement The PGA of America opted to push the start of the tournament back 3.5 hours and shifting it to threesomes going off the No. 1 and No. 10 tees. McIlroy and Schauffele were scheduled to tee off at 8:25 a.m. ET this morning, but will now tee off at 1:38 p.m. ET alongside Chris Kirk.
