Rory McIlroy: Although he has failed to win a major championship in over seven-and-a-half years, the 33-year-old will feel upbeat about his chances of claiming Slam title number five. He closed the Masters with a best-of-tournament 64, which left him in second spot - his highest-ever finish at Augusta. Since then he's finished fifth over the testing TPC Potomac layout.
Collin Morikawa: The 25-year-old from California is every inch a championship contender. He's the only golfer during the last dozen Majors to win two of them, and he heads to Tulsa as the world number three.
Jon Rahm: The reigning US Open champion had made a slow start to the year - by his own recent high standards - until his victory in Mexico on the first day of May returned him to the winners' enclosure.
Scottie Scheffler: The current world number one - who this time last year was ranked 24th - has won four times on the PGA Tour since the start of February. This included a maiden Major triumph at Augusta but it wasn't as though we weren't warned. During 2021, Scheffler posted a hat-trick of Major top 10s to prove he could handle tough courses, as well as the pressure of showcase events.
Jordan Spieth: Always a threat in Majors, the 28-year-old is back up to number eight in the world after finishing runner-up in Texas on Sunday.
