So uh... this happened last week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45xF1C76I88  https://www.pga.com/events/pgachampionship/ If it seems like the British Open ended just 2 weeks ago, that's because it did, but here we are, the last shot at glory's last shot--starting next year, the PGA Championship will move to May in the slot currently occupied by The Player's Championship which will move back to March. As for the course, I thought it was a new major venue but apparently it held the U.S. Open in 1965 and the PGA Championship in 1992.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7t00RPOZmn4 Air Times (ET) Thu/Fri: TNT 2 - 8 p.m. Sat/Sun: TNT 11 a.m. - 2 p.m., CBS 2 - 7 p.m. Marquee Tee Times (Thu/Fri ET) 8:39 a.m. / 2:04 p.m. -- Rickie Fowler, Hideki Matsuyama, Ian Poulter 9:01 a.m. / 2:26 p.m. -- Phil Mickelson, Jason Day, Keegan Bradley 9:23 a.m. / 2:48 p.m. -- Justin Thomas, Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy 1:53 p.m. / 8:28 a.m. -- Dustin Johnson, Bubba Watson, Adam Scott 2:15 p.m. / 8:50 a.m. -- Patrick Reed, Brooks Koepka, Francesco Molinari 2:37 p.m. / 9:12 a.m. -- Jordan Spieth, Jon Rahm, Justin Rose Betting Favorites (Ladbrokes as of 4am ET Monday) Dustin Johnson 8/1 Rory McIlroy 10/1 Jordan Spieth 14/1 Justin Thomas 14/1 Brooks Koepka 20/1 Justin Rose 20/1 Rickie Fowler 20/1 Tiger Woods 20/1 Francesco Molinari 25/1 Jason Day 25/1 Jon Rahm 25/1 Tommy Fleetwood 25/1 Betting Pool Pick an available player who isn't one of the listed top 10 betting favorites.

You know what, lets mix things up a bit this week. Put me down for Matt "Mr. consistent, out here grinding top 10s all week long" Kuchar.

Xander Schauffele Are they going to demolish this course? Like -25 or something? If so, someone like Ted Potter Jr. will win, lol.

He's either going to flame out and miss the cut, or finish like top 10. Nothing in between.

God I fucking love Diablo 3 gold, it even paid for this shitty title
|
as I said before, my dad and I have Saturday tickets and have been fully hype for going on a few weeks now. galleries are gonna be huge and scores are gonna be low, because of massive green complexes that are dry. (and no, I can't give local knowledge of Bellerive, as let's just say I went to the wrong high school to play there.)

I went in 2016 at Baltusrol and galleries were small because of rain and it was fascinating to watch. We had the bonus of going on Sunday when most of the field had to finish their Saturday rounds early that day so I got to watch Justin Rose hit an approach and putt out from about 10 feet away, it was surreal. There were literally ten people watching Justin Rose play a hole of golf in a major championship. Russell Knox almost hit me with a drive while he was playing with Bubba who also hit it in the poo poo and then hit the most impressive golf shot I've ever seen. Bubba was 20 yards left of the fairway and carved one out of a muddy lie that managed to hit the front right of the green where he two putted for par.

I'm going with Tommy Fleetwood. This will be the first professional golf tournament I've ever attended and I am incredibly pumped.

Steph Curry shot +1 at a web.com event today. He's well off the pace but by no means anywhere near last place. He won't sniff the cut if he shoots the same number tomorrow but I can't argue with shooting 71 in tournament conditions. Dude can golf a ball.
