Just a reminder that I make my expert picks looking at all fantasy leagues and formats.

2025 BMW PGA Championship expert picks and rankings
1. Rory McIlroy: McIlroy just won the Irish Open for the second time, doing it in dramatic fashion. He returns here after losing in a playoff against Billy Horschel last year.
2. Jon Rahm: Rahm hasn't won this year, but he's been a runner-up magnet on LIV Golf and has played well in this venue in the past.
3. Tommy Fleetwood: Fleetwood won the Tour Championship, has enjoyed a solid record here and should be quite confident.
4. Viktor Hovland: Hovland has been fifth here twice in the last three years, and this could be a great venue for him.
5. Ludvig Aberg: Ludvig had a better finish to the PGA Tour season after a horrid middle, and he was T-10 here in 2023.

6. Shane Lowry: Lowry is coming off a good finish in his home-nation open last week and returns to a venue where he won in 2022.
7. Ryan Fox: Fox won here two years ago and has enjoyed a multi-win season on the PGA Tour, so he should be fairly confident.
8. Aaron Rai: Rai has to feel somewhat hurt to not get much of a chance at the Ryder Cup team, and he can be motivated to thrive at a venue where he's been T-2 and T-4 the last two years.
9. Tyrrell Hatton: Hatton was joint runner-up to Ryan Fox in 2023, and that's really his best work here the last few years.
10. Billy Horschel: Horschel has won here twice, and he's a threat to consider despite a down year.
