lotta fun yesterday, walked the whole coarse eventually finding great spot between 15 & 16... watching guys tee off on 15, then doing a 180 to watch groups put on 16.
Following Dustin Johnson early on 3, when I literally turn around and Paulina is a foot away.... had a few brews and said hi Paulina, she was nice and said hello
i play Bethpage often and to see how much work is put in to pull this off is incredible... like I was in a different state
merch tent was huge, food n beer lines were a pain in the ass, weather couldn’t have been better0 -

LOL. Guy is about to win his 4th major out of the last 8 and people still love to talk about how he's in too good of shape! You must love listening to Brandel Chamblee.0 -

No no one was dominant while Tiger was injured. Brooks is the first to actually show signs (in majors only) of dominance.
Tiger is not irrelevant. Not sure if you were being sarcastic. In the space of a year he made it to top ten in the world, one major, had the best cumulative score to par in the three majors approaching the PGA, won the Tour Championship, and finished second in the FedEx Cup.
Rory showed some signs of dominating the majors 2011-2014 but then hasn't won a major since. This run here by Koepka has been incredible and I am absolutely loving it. Really don't understand all the hate this guy gets.0 -

Just pointing out that it would be difficult to maintain that physique and stay injury free over a long period of time.0 -

Brooks is trying to show with his body language all is okay, but inside his head is spinning. Par out and he wins.0

I did not expect the back nine today to be interesting but it was. DJ needs to figure out how to get the W and not second place.
I don't know what to think of that golf course. Without Koepka it would have been an exciting tournament. It was awesome to see the pros hitting shots out of the rough that I hit (on shorter, less thick rough for me though).

Dude has got to be one of the more bizarre stories in golf history. 5 wins with 4 majors!! Dude could very easily end up with more major wins than normal tournament wins

It would be interesting to compare how the top 15 Americans and 15 Europeans fared at the PGA.0 -
$2M for winning the PGA. DJ won over $1M. That is a nice weekend.
Mapped out my week. Weather permitting, and provided I can wake up in the morning, I plan on golfing 4 times after work (and then going into a holiday weekend!). My favorite time on a golf course is around sunset. It is so quiet.
