7-0; +10.05pts

Pre-tournament plays:

LAY 20pts liability

Rory McIlroy 8.0  22nd
Hideki Matsuyama 13.5  5th
Jordan Spieth 14  28th
Dustin Johnson 15.5  13th
Rickie Fowler 17.5  5th
Brooks Koepka 27  13th
Jon Rahm 30  58th
Opposing the top of the field and the top of that list is McIlroy - his history in this event and on this course is the reason for his single figure odds, but his post-injury struggles with his game suggest that there is plenty of reason to oppose him whatever the event or course
As impressive as Matsuyama was last week, this is a big drop in pre-tournament odds and there isn't value here - I'd price higher as winning back-to-back is tough for any pair of events, let alone a WGC and a Major
Spieth has missed the Wells Fargo Championship in each of the last three years after finishing 32nd on his debut - that suggests he doesn't has a preference for this course and that puts him at a disadvantage against so many who have played here year-on-year
The same is also true for Johnson who hasn't played at Quail Hollow since missing the cut in 2011 and with form an issue, he is a player to oppose at this stage of the event
Fowler does have form at Quail Hollow and won in 2012 and he is in good form, but I still wouln't price him at such low odds in a Major Championship
Koepka's odds are much higher than last week, but with good reason - the field is more than twice as large, but more importantly, he hasn't previously played in the Wells Fargo Championship on this course so this is an unusually large disadvantage in the PGA Championship
The same is also true for Rahm and his form has also been patchy since winning the Irish Open, so I doubt that his odds will be much lower throughout this event
