The leaderboard at the 2025 PGA Championship is in good shape heading into the weekend. Jhonattan Vegas, Matthieu Pavon, and Matt Fitzpatrick lead the way. But some big names missed the cut at Quail Hollow.
Jordan Spieth came in with a shot at the career Grand Slam. That’s on hold again. A second-round 68 helped, but it wasn’t enough to undo an opening 76; he missed the cut by one at +2.
Brooks Koepka didn’t make it either, finishing 9-over for two rounds.
Xander Schauffele had made 62 straight cuts coming into the PGA Championship. He was outside the cut line almost all day but finished at +1 to make his 63rd cut in a row. Rory McIlroy also barely made it to the weekend and finished at +1 after two rounds.
Some big names heading home include Justin Thomas (+3), Ludvig Åberg (+3), Hideki Matsuyama (+3), Patrick Cantlay (+6) and Phil Mickelson (+9). Quail Hollow has been demanding, and the next two days won’t get easier.
