-20 minimum looks to be the number. No room for fricking around


What's the weather supposed to be? If it's soft all weekend it might get low but this happens pretty often in majors. They always get tougher over the weekend. Last year at the US Open after round one it looked like they were going to light up LA CC but they only finished at like 1 or 2 under what the opening round total score was.

Somehow nobody at the USGA realized that it's overcast and cool in Southern California in June. Took them two rounds to adjust the greens.

Valhalla just is just a run of the mill tour course

more rain tomorrow and Saturday. Just don’t see how they speed these greens up. Caddies supposedly said the winner is going to be low low this week

It’s not just Xander running in birdies right now. It’s a shite ton of people

These guys are just too good for any golf course that’s wet. They bitched slapped Augusta on Thursday as well. Even Bryson shot in the 60s that day and that course usually kills him

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Tiger putt with so much speed, he usually struggles on slow greens

Rory’s wedges and irons are an absolutely insane. Hit two flags in the last 3 holes

Rory looks so relieved to finally hit a fairway.

The one time I don't bet on X during a major and he starts like this.

Figured Pinehurst was a perfect fit for him.

The PGA app shot/score tracker is so far behind. Inexcusable for the PGA championship. I watched hideki hit a birdie 15 minutes ago and it's just now showing up on the app.

I can understand for a regular tourney but this is their major championship.

They were so far behind the masters app as well.

There’s a difference between the PGA Tour and PGA of America.

You need to download the PGA Championship App.

Will do.

Betting against Dunlap with these difficult roughs seems to be a winning strategy. His driving accuracy just isn't consistent enough yet

A -20 or better winner for the PGA championship would be embarrassing. Definitely dilutes the win of whoever takes it. Thats not a true major championship test.

The only thing that gives me a little semblance of hope that the scores might not be crazy low is that of 78 guys on the course, only 15 of them are -2 or better.

The rain isn't going to help but maybe it'll toughen up by Saturday.

Not sure what you're laughing about. There's only been one -20 or better winner in tournament history, J Day in 2015.

Butch Harmons boomer arse is complaining about all the betting advertising on the ESPN golf coverage

The best boomer part about it? He choose the ESPN Betting stream on ESPN+…..
