Random PGA Championship Field Picker

What Is the Random PGA Championship Field Picker?

The Random PGA Championship Field Picker spins through the field and hands you a player.

It has the strongest field of the four majors by ranking, since a large share of the world's top players qualify automatically.

How to Use the Random PGA Championship Field Picker?

1. 1

   Open the Random PGA Championship Field Picker. All 50 players load with equal odds, Aaron Rai, Adam Scott and Akshay Bhatia among them.

2. 2

   Trim the field if your game calls for it: take Aaron Rai out for an underdog run, or keep only the players still in contention.

3. 3

   Press SPIN. The wheel settles on one of the 50 and the result card names your PGA Championship Field player.

4. 4

   Drawing for a group? Turn on Remove Winners so Bud Cauley cannot come up twice, then spin once per person.

5. 5

   Save the trimmed wheel under "My Wheels" and the next PGA Championship Field draw opens on your players rather than all 50.

Random PGA Championship Field Picker Use Cases

Sweepstakes for the championship. Fantasy tiebreakers. Watch party draws for the weekend.

Anyone tracking the majors across a season and wanting a player to follow through each one.

What Is on the PGA Championship Field Wheel

The wheel holds the whole PGA Championship Field field: 50 players, each with an identical slice. Aaron Rai, Adam Scott, Akshay Bhatia, Alex Noren, Alex Smalley and Ben Griffin are among them.

Equal slices mean the PGA Championship Field draw does not quietly favour the players you would expect it to. Aaron Rai comes up exactly as often as Bud Cauley, which is the part that matters when the result has to look fair to everyone watching it land.

The PGA Championship Field field of 50 is wide enough that trimming is usually the first thing worth doing. Cut it to the players genuinely in contention and the wheel stops offering results the room will reject on sight, which is what makes people stop trusting a draw and start respinning it.

The Strongest Field, Statistically

By ranking, the PGA Championship assembles the strongest field of the four majors. A large share of the world's top players qualify automatically, and the field carries fewer ceremonial or amateur entries than the Masters or The Open.

The winner takes the Wanamaker Trophy, which is among the largest trophies in professional sport and has been lost and recovered more than once in its history.

The strength of the field cuts both ways for a random draw. Your player is more likely to be genuinely competitive than at a major with a broader entry list, and correspondingly less likely to be the outsider whose win you'd still be talking about in ten years.

Tips for Fair Draws

Because the field is so strong by ranking, a random draw is less likely to hand you an outsider here than at the other majors.

That cuts both ways: your player is more likely to be competitive, and less likely to be a long shot worth bragging about.
