PGA championship has been very entertaining.

Good job by them managing the weather and course conditions. I love seeing these guys paying the price for hitting into the rough. Greens look like they are rolling great.

Interesting seeing two LIV golfers, Koepka and Bryson, in the final two pairings. Fun watching them play together today as well considering their history. Koepka was the only guy today to have a great round. Everybody else is hanging on by their teeth.

The Canadian Conner looked like a golf machine for 17 holes today. Brutal mistake thinning that fairway bunker shot into the lip setting up that double bogey.

The club pro Michael Block is great to watch. In 8th place he’s first club pro in over 30 years to be in the top ten after 54 holes. He‘ll be paired with Rory tomorrow.

Should be a great Sunday. I think I want Hovland to pull it out, he’s been right there for a while and needs to finish one of these things all the way.

Since I haven't watched LIV Golf, I don't know if these two have gotten past.....their past. Things were pretty testy between them on the tour but now since they are kinda renegades-in-common, have they gotten along better? I'll probably get to watch tomorrow's round and may see first hand. For now, what are you seeing? Kissed and made up?

There wasn’t any commentary I remember about their little feud. They seemed to get along fine. Bryson seems to play quite a bit faster now but that could just be how the coverage portrays it. CBS seems to spend very little time showing guys in their pre-shot prep.

I think they mutually decided to drop the tit-for-tat before moving to LIV golf.

It has been an interesting tournament. I’m looking Sheffler to rebound today but he seems to be just off his best the last few weeks. Rory snuck up on the leaders and Conner looks great. Makes for a dramatic Sunday.

Koepka off to a blistering start with birdies at 2 and 3. Looking unbeatable right now.

I’m fully onboard with pulling for Block. It’s time for the first club pro to win one IMO.

Realistically, I’m hoping he can rally for a top 4 finish.

I'm not a real fan of the Nole---smug and arrogant that he is---but you gotta give him credit for seemingly able to rise up and play lights out during a major most times. For awhile he was Mr. Major, then a couple of hiccups. This weekend looks like he got the mojo back.

Schleffler is a guy who can look like he isn’t playing well and he’s still in the mix. The guy has burned the edge of so many putts this week he could be running away with this if a few of those fall.

Is he the guy who had 7 bogeys yesterday on the first 9? Commentators mentioned it today but I missed the name of who they were talking about?

If so, there’s the difference between him & the leader.

Koepka & Hovland are coming back to the field. I saw Koepka bogey the 6th to drop to -8. Just looked at my phone to see he dropped another shot and Hovland put up a bogey somewhere over the past few holes. It’s wide open.

Literally saw Spaulding or an Spaulding lookalike over Hovland’s shoulder after his tee shot on 18. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Man, not sure what is crazier… Blocks ace or Hovland hitting literally the same botched sand shot into the lip that Conner did yesterday. Crazy!

PGA must be apoplectic about a LIV golfer winning their championship.

And he buried it!

Loved Block’s ace. A great moment, along with his finishing putt.

I wondered why the LIV golfers were even in it. I learned that all 4 majors are stand-alone entities. The PGA does not run the PGA Championship. Surprised me that it’s not theirs.

The Tour Championship is the PGA tour’s.
