PGA Championship = 2017's best major?

I think it's going to be a great tournament. Spieth trying for the slam, Rory's success in the past there, last shot at glory, etc. It's my least favorite major, but I'm really looking forward to it this year.

 

My prediction.....Rory will win it.

I have some predictions:

 

-People will hate the coverage

-People will hate the winning score

-People will hate the winner because of something he did

-People will hate that a penalty wasn't called for something

-People will hate guys who didn't win the tournament for being happy for the guy who did

-People will hate the setup and call it a joke

I have wanted it since Spieth came in 2nd at his first masters.

 

A Rory vs Spieth final pairing on Sunday. I would see them separate from the pack on saturday in seperate groups and then duke it on Sunday. It would make for a great tournament

Like they say in the NBA: it's gonna be a bar fight. (Golf's version of a bar fight).

 

With so many players with so much to prove, everyone's gonna be hungry. Brooks Koepka won't be the only one with his tongue out licking his lower lips as he wets his appetite for birdies; they're all (ALL of them) gonna be in apex-predator mode.

 

Nothing will be left in the bag; these guys will be full throttle.

 

Rory will be in full beast mode. Jordan will want this more than any tournament ever. And Rickie has won there (I'm not saying he'll win but there's something to be said for that), so maybe he can give things a go.

 

I do like that playing the week prior is basically mandatory, so nobody's gonna try to gain an upper hand doing whatever it is pro golfers do when they skip tournaments to prepare for a major. But I can see it happening; Jordan may bail so he can win the Grand Slam.

It would be most fun if in the final paring we had a Reed/RM pointing match going on again. Doubt that would happen...they did a ton of work on the course be interesting to see how difficult the setup is...or if Phil likes it now!

I can't wait to see the new and improved Quail Hollow.

 

We usually go down every year for the Wells Fargo but decided to skip the PGA as the I'm sure the crowds will be massive.

......did you watch the Masters this year? That was pretty good. Maybe the best golf tournament I've watched since the Ryder Cup. That will be tough to beat.

The PGA isn't normally but I'm optimistic, as ever.

 

Can anyone recall a year when the PGA was the best major?

 

Despite TW's performance at the U.S.Open earlier in the year, i think 2000 can be argued. at least as far as an exciting, every shot a nail biter, battle down the stretch between Tiger and Bob May. That was Ridiculous back and forth golf.

Yes, that's a decent call. With both Opens being blowouts and I can't recall much being memorable about Vijay's Masters victory. Perhaps only diluted by the fact it was Tiger versus Bob May and not someone more noteworthy.

 

Thinking about it, 2001 Toms V Mickelson wasn't bad either with Toms making the hole in one with the 4 wood.

Expect a Spieth-McIlroy battle.

 

End up with Charley Hoffman vs Russell Knox.

2014 - Masters was very dull that year, Kaymer had the US Open won on Friday, McIlroy had the Open won on Saturday. PGA was a battle between Mickelson, Stenson, Fowler and McIlroy, very exciting.

And that there are "shirt folders" in the field, taking spots from more deserving players who actually have a chance to win...
