Redkacheek's Playbook: 2025 PGA Championship

Alright.. PGA Championship week. What used to be known as Glory's Last Shot...now is just an event in between the Masters and US Open (imo), but it is a great field, we have the PGA Tour and some of LIV all together to compete this week. Now I will be honest, this course seems almost too one-dimensional. I hate to completely side with a narrative for a course, because usually it's not an absolute anyways, but Quail Hollow and especially this week is set up to reward the longest and straightest. Certainly some will be able to hang around for a Top 20 with average driving, but it's going to be a tall order and for everything I want to focus on it really boils down to great driving, mostly distance (which SG:OTT weights quite heavily) and some accuracy. 

After that, the ApproachIQ really does help a lot to see which players will also have the most opportunities with the distances in. Unfortunately it's pretty simple this week. Lot of drivers (12 of 14 tee shots are 290-330), and lot's of mid to long irons.

Let's quickly just recap the Course and the ComboIQ which we walked through on Tuesday.
