How to get the most fun PGA major coverage check out Dale Cory on the Complete Sports Media Podcast
Check out our really fun conversation with Dale Cory discussing the PGA Championship.
The years first major ends up being the 102nd PGA Championship from Harding Park in San Francisco. One of the main focus points of this tournament heading in was Brooks Koepka the two time defending champ. He shot a four under par opening round standing in a huge log jam one shot back of the leaders Jason Day and Brendon Todd. There were nine players at 4 under 66 just a shot behind. Sitting at three under par 67 were 8 players after the first round. So if you do the math that is 17 players within two shots of the leaders!
The biggest featured group on Thursday was Tiger Woods matched up with newly crowned world number 1 Justin Thomas and world Number 3 Rory McIlroy. Tiger played a pretty solid opening round and managed a 2 under 68 and is tied for 20th. Rory shot an even par 70 and sits in a tie for 48th JT struggled with two double bogeys and shot a one over par and sits in a tie for 68th.
This is a fun tournament to watch and what about to play? Well we can try and ask some of the 20 club pros that qualified for this years tournament. Lets hope a bunch of them make the cut and we have a chance to see a cinderella story! I hope that we get a chance to speak to at least one of them on an upcoming podcast.
Enjoy this conversation and the tournament this weekend!
Take care
