Identity Crisis❓

Aaron Rai with the Wannamaker (Picture by: John Haslbauer) The PGA Championship Does Have an Identity: Aaron Rai Showed Us By: John Haslbauer (aka PGA Tout) NEWTOWN SQUARE, PA Plenty of narratives (wagering or otherwise) circulated ahead of the 108th PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club. Almost all of them were proven false. Rumors of a winning score pushing toward 20 under par were debunked. The driver-heavy approach Rory McIlroy preached after his practice rounds proved to be his...

The Magnificent 7️⃣

Friday, Round 2 NEWTOWN SQUARE, PA "This is the hardest set of pin locations that I've seen since I've been on TOUR, and that includes U.S. Opens, that includes Oakmont.

They said maybe Shinnecock is the only place they have seen that has pins that could compare to this." - Scottie Scheffler on round two's hole locations. It was a wild Friday...

The Philly Special 🔔

It's always sunny in Philadelphia NEWTOWN SQUARE, PA Once Rory and Akshay faded away on Saturday, I was pulling for Rickie Fowler on Sunday. What a story that would have been, 14 years after his first victory on the PGA TOUR at the same venue. Fowler flushing it out there is a good thing.
