Best Active Golfers Never to Win a Major Following Xander's Huge Win at PGA Championship

After an electric finish at the PGA Championship this past weekend, Xander Schauffele removed his name off the list of the “Best Golfers To Never Win A Major.” But now as we move towards the U.S. Open in June, who remains on that list looking to obtain the glory of winning a major championship?

BetCarolina.com utilized the upcoming future odds for the U.S. Open to finalize the list of the “Best Active Golfers To Never Win A Major,” which will updated prior to each major championship.

After 12 close-but-no-cigar finishes in majors, Xander Schauffele finally came out on top in Sunday’s final round of the 2024 PGA Championship, nailing a short putt on 18 to cap off a wild one-stroke victory over Bryson DeChambeau at Louisville’s Valhalla Country Club.  

Schauffele finished the week at -21, breaking a record for the lowest 72-hole score in a major, which speaks to the way that the San Diego native played all weekend at an event that was overshadowed at points by actions that took place off the grounds of the Kentucky course. 

Schauffele did all that after finishing in the top 10 of a major championship 12 times over the years, with six top-five finishes in his career.

Now, it’s worth wondering which of golf’s up-and-coming stars that have yet to finish atop the leaderboard at a major will do so next, with a star-studded cast that includes players like Viktor Hovland, Ludvig Aberg, and Patrick Cantlay all looking for that career-defining victory.  

Utilizing North Carolina DraftKings Sportsbook, Bet Carolina utilized future odds to win the next major championship (U.S. Open) as the deciding factor of who the best golfers are who don’t have a major championship on their resume.
