Tourney Favorite Dustin Johnson’s Implosion a Shocking End to Day 1 at Baltusrol

If ever a golf course seemed destined to showcase the explosive talents of Dustin Johnson, Baltusrol is it. The home of this year’s PGA Championship is long and uncomplicated, almost as if the folks at the New Jersey golf club had put out a welcome mat for the man whose swing is pure dynamite. Yet as Thursday’s first round came to a close, Johnson easily ranked as the day’s biggest disappointment. His seven-over round of 77 dumped him as deeply into the rear guard as he’s ever been this early at a major—tied for 143rd, with only five players carding a worse score. It... 

PGA Championship 2016: Leaderboard Scores and Highlights from Thursday

The clouds sent rain washing down on Baltusrol Golf Club, but Jimmy Walker saw nothing but clarity in Thursday’s first round of the 2016 PGA Championship.  Walker carded a five-under 65 on the Springfield, New Jersey, golf course to carry a one-stroke lead heading into the second round. Martin Kaymer, Ross Fisher and Emiliano Grillo are each tied for second at four under. Walker, a 37-year-old who has never finished any better than seventh at a major, carded six birdies against one bogey. He played the front nine at one under, including recording just one bogey at No. 6, before... 

Jordan Spieth at PGA Championship 2016: Thursday Leaderboard Score and Reaction

Jordan Spieth kicked off the year’s final major in much the same way he has fared in the previous three, as he ended the first 18 holes at the 2016 PGA Championship at even par Thursday. This continued Spieth’s inconsistent trend in 2016. He hasn’t been bad overall, owning two victories, but in 13 major rounds, the 23-year-old has finished over par five times and nearly added a sixth before two late birdies saved him Thursday. Spieth has some ground to make up over the next three days. Jimmy Walker ended his day with the lead after firing a five-under 65 in the... 

Jason Day Shows Remarkable Resilience to Deliver Solid Start at PGA Championship

Maybe Jason Day ought to find a chunk of New Jersey rock and plant it in his shoe, or try to crash one of the state’s many toll booths without a penny in his pocket. Perhaps longtime caddie and mentor Colin Swatton could jab him in the eye with a sharp golf pencil. After all, dealing with aggravation, discomfort, distraction and irritation seems to represent the world No. 1’s personal Grand Slam path to success. In a sport where angst and stress are as much a part of the game as three-putts and wooden tees, Day once again proved that when it comes to eliciting superlative play, the... 

PGA Championship 2016 Leaderboard: Latest Scores and Standings from Thursday

The PGA Championship may give Dustin Johnson and Henrik Stenson each the opportunity to put their signature on the current golf year. Johnson won the U.S. Open by overcoming personal demons, hitting long, straight drives and knocking in birdie putts to get the best of the field at Oakmont, Pennsylvania. Stenson was even better in taking the British Open, firing a final round of 63 to get the best of runner-up Phil Mickelson and take home the Claret Jug. If either of them can win the PGA Championship at Baltusrol Golf Club in Springfield, New Jersey, this weekend, it will mark their second major... 

Women’s British Open 2016: Thursday Leaderboard Scores and LPGA Highlights

South Korea’s Mirim Lee opened her 2016 Women’s British Open campaign with a sensational round of 10-under 62 to take the lead at Woburn Golf and Country Club in Milton Keynes, England. Lee sits three shots ahead of Ariya Jutanugarn, who also impressed greatly, finishing at seven under. Shanshan Feng shot six under, while Mi Hyang Lee and Stacy Lewis carded rounds of five-under to stay within distance of Thursday’s top performers. Here’s a look at the current leaderboard: For the full leaderboard, visit the LPGA’s official website.      Recap Lee came... 

Rory McIlroy at PGA Championship 2016: Thursday Leaderboard Score and Reaction

Rory McIlroy‘s chances of winning a major tournament in 2016 likely ended Thursday, as the superstar shot a disappointing four-over 74 at the PGA Championship at the Baltusrol Golf Course in Springfield, New Jersey. That left McIlroy well off the pace of the top of the leaderboard:  McIlroy‘s day didn’t start well. After parring his first three holes, he bogeyed Nos. 13, 14 and 16 (he opened on the back nine). That left McIlroy with a fight on his hands, as Jason Sobel of ESPN noted: His first nine holes, indeed, were marked by a series of missed opportunities, per... 

Phil Mickelson at PGA Championship 2016: Thursday Leaderboard Score and Reaction

Phil Mickelson will need to mount a sizable comeback over the next three days to contend at the 2016 PGA Championship after posting a one-over 71 in Thursday’s first round at Baltusrol Golf Club in Springfield, New Jersey.  It’s a frustrating start for the 46-year-old American star. Not only is he coming off a second-place finish in the British Open in his last start, but he also earned his only PGA Championship triumph on this very course in 2005. Let’s check out how Lefty’s opening round played out Thursday: And here’s an updated look at the tournament leaderboard...

The 2016 PGA Championship, the last major of the 2016 season, kicked off on Thursday at the Baltusrol Golf Club in Springfield Township, New Jersey. In-form Dustin Johnson is one of the favourites among a stacked field of contenders, including defending champion Jason Day and former winner Rory McIlroy. British Open champion Henrik Stenson will hope to continue his momentum, and the likes of Phil Mickelson and Jordan Spieth are also among the top contenders. Here’s a live look at the leaderboard: Defending champion and Players Championship winner Day once again finds himself among the favourites... 

PGA Championship 2016 Schedule: Tee Times, TV Coverage, Live Stream, Predictions

The 2016 golf season has been anything but predictable, which could lead to an interesting PGA Championship. After first-time winners brought home titles in each of the first three majors of the year, there are tons of possibilities for the fourth and final major championship of the season. Plenty of underrated competitors are hoping to become the fourth first-time winner of the year. On the other hand, the trend of one golfer winning two majors in the same season could continue—it has happened in each of the last two years. Some proven competitors also want to get on the board in 2016. Here...
