The 2026 PGA Championship is finally here, marking the second major of the season. Just over a month after Rory McIlroy kicked off golf’s biggest events with a victory at Augusta National, the focus now shifts to Aronimink in Philadelphia, where a new major champion will be crowned.
This week, a field of 156 players will tee off, each with the Wanamaker Trophy in their sights. Among them, 11 competitors come from the LIV Golf circuit.
Following Brooks Koepka’s departure from the tour over the winter and Phil Mickelson’s absence due to personal matters, LIV Golf fields only one past PGA champion: 2010 winner Martin Kaymer. However, the league still boasts multiple major winners, including Bryson DeChambeau, Dustin Johnson, and Jon Rahm.
Here’s the full list of LIV Golf players competing at this week’s PGA Championship.
