The Green Mile nearly sent Masters champion Rory McIlroy home early from the PGA Championship. Quail Hollow’s closing three holes known did a number on several other players, too. The Green Mile has lived up to its diabolical reputation this week as one of the most difficult closing stretches in golf and has had a major impact on the leaderboard.

The two-time major champ was tied for the lead going into Quail Hollow’s infamous closing stretch but is now six behind Scottie Scheffler.

Quail Hollow is hosting the 2025 PGA Championship, and the word is that it's going to take hitting it long and straight to win the famed Wanamaker Trophy. That includes the final three holes of the course in Charlotte, North Carolina, which is known as the "Green Mile."
