PGA Championship Contest
I didnβt think Xander could do it. Congrats to him.
A couple of clutch putts there on 18!
Both datko (-14) and fat shot (-13) picked the winner but not the score of -21 (new Major record).
If the course weren't soft, one of those scores may well have won. Congrats on at least picking the golfer.
Thanks for playing along and looking forward to the US Open before too long.
Schauffele has to be the oldest looking 30 year old dude I've ever seen.

Scheffler looks older...
PA-PLAYA he looks like he's on roids....like if Lou Ferrigno went into golf he'd look like XS.
Great win.....great championship. Hovland and Deshambeau pushing Xander and Deshambeau hitting that putt on 18 to make Xander birdie for the win was some high drama. Power lip IN. I dunno what others think but the layup on 18 was a good shot.....was gonna say "gutsy" but there was not much risk. Def got his attention and he pulled it off flawlessly.
DonM same here ....I still question if he will win one in tough conditions, i.e. firm baked out conditions, but he pulled this one off. Seriously delivered with a hiccup and some tough circumstances down the stretch with his last two drives being a bit unlucky. That was a fun final round to watch!
I want to thank the consolation prize winner DATKO for donating his prize of a dozen balls
to a budding young golfer in my area. Thanks for stepping up and the kid will be giddy.
Now......off to the US Open soon.

Hell, in Texas, if there is an accident on the freeway, drivers just start peeling off the right side and down to the frontage road. We did it once with our pickup towing a fifth wheel camping trailer. It looked like a jailbreak.
I live 40 miles from Valhalla and there is still a lot of local news coverage of the Scotty incident. The mayor is calling for a full investigation to make sure proper police procedures were followed. There is also a lot of press saying many of the upper ranks in the LMPD think the case might have been "over charged" and suggesting reducing or dismissing the charge. Supposedly there is a witness who said he saw the officer running after Scotty's car and tripped. Supposedly there is a traffic cam video just discovered. Apparently there is a meeting today to discuss the charges.
