This South Carolina layout has already made a mark on golfing history, with this course best known for hosting the 'War on the Shore' - a particularly acrimonious Ryder Cup renewal, won by the United States in 1991.

Given that 2011's shock winner, 600.00 chance Keegan Bradley, was barely known beyond the Nationwide Tour 12 months ago, making predictions at this early stage is fraught with difficulty.

Indeed, as the style and character of PGA Championship venues offer fewer consistent clues than the other majors, when the time comes, punters may be best served by considering the layout's creator.

Pete Dye is arguably the modern game's greatest course designer, with an eye for the TV audience and its desire for drama and volatile, fast-changing leaderboards.

Dye is best known for creating Sawgrass with its infamous dramatic finish, and also designed Whistling Straits, that hosted the two most dramatic recent PGAs in 2004 and 2010.

In-running traders will be looking forward to another treat in August.
