Tiger Woods still hasn’t won a major since 2008. But bookmakers still see him as the odds-on choice to win every time he tees off, and that’s the case 2012 PGA Championship at Kiawah Island in South Carolina is no exception.

Woods has 6-1 odds to win the championship. That’s more than twice as good as the next-best odds given, which belong to Lee Westwood at 14-1. Other notables include Luke Donald and Rory McIlroy at 16-1, Adam Scott at 25-1 after his poor performance down the stretch in the British Open, Ernie Els, who eventually won that tournament, at 40-1, and Keegan Bradley, who won last year’s PGA Championship and won this week’s Bridgestone Invitational on the final hole of the competition, at 66-1.

Here’s a more complete list of the odds:

Tiger Woods 6/1
Lee Westwood 14/1
Luke Donald 16/1
Rory McIlroy 16/1
Phil Mickelson 20/1
Adam Scott 25/1
Graeme McDowell 33/1
Jason Dufner 33/1
Matt Kuchar 33/1
Hunter Mahan 33/1
Webb Simpson 33/1
Justin Rose 33/1
Dustin Johnson 33/1
Bubba Watson 33/1
Zach Johnson 40/1
Rickie Fowler 40/1
