They say you never remember who comes in second, but, to me, the last
time the PGA championship was played at Whistling Straits, my memories
are distinctly of DJ, of him sitting forlornly in the scoring room as he
realizes his chance at a major were “grounded” due to a rule violation.
Martin Kaymer went on to victory that year, over Bubba Watson, if your
memory fails to serve, as it did for me. (And technically DJ came in T5)
And it seems like eons ago that old man, Rory McIlroy won this
tournament in handy fashion over Rickie and Phil in 2014. Since then,
the new guard of Spieth and Rickie are front and center. Although
Jordan’s opportunity at the grand slam is gone, a win here would
certainly make a big statement about his place in the game. And perhaps
DJ might want to make one, too.
Whistling Straits is a great venue; I’ve been looking forward to this return for sometime. The pool is up! Get your entries in now for a little added excitement. Fore!

Congrats to Jason Day who played solid golf today with nary a hiccup to record his first well-deserved major victory. Spieth was
matching Jason, but couldn’t gain any ground, and very few others put any pressure on Jason. I suspect this is the first of many
for the young Aussie.
To the pool, and congrats to team, It’s a Bunker, DJ, which was entered by yours truly, GPA, Brian Duffield. My team had Day, Rose,
Koepeka, and Grace, who led the team into first spot. A three-way tie for the remaining order and winning score pick determines
Candice Blake’s team, Noah’s Picks, as second (-12), Penny Thompson’s team Stymied for third (-10), and Dave Bailey’s team, Last
Chance (-8) takes solo fourth place. Sorry, Dave!
I have double-checked the scores and everything looks okay, but please let me know if you see something amiss. All the final round
scores for teams and players are here or at the link below.
Thanks for another great season of major golf pools. Hope everyone enjoyed it. Have a great rest of the summer and hopefully see
you next year. Fore!
