Jimmy Walker has a one shot lead after the first day of action at the 2016 PGA Champoinship from Baltrusol Golf Club in Springfield, New Jersey. On the course early on a hot, humid Thursday, Walker took advantage of the cooler morning conditions to log a five-under 6—a standout performance after what has been a difficult season to date. Three players are chasing walker at four under: Martin Kaymer, Ross Fisher and Emiliano Grillo. Just two weeks after his impressive British Open win, Henrik Stenson is also in the hunt after Day 1 at three under par, while 2015 PGA champion Jason Day sits...

If the last major of the golf season is able to come close to matching what happened in the British Open earlier this month, fans will witness a tournament to remember. Henrik Stenson fired a remarkable 63 in the final round to win that tournament, and that score came three days after Phil Mickelson opened it with a 63 of his own. The golfers may not be able to go quite so low on the long and difficult Baltusrol Golf Club track in what is likely to be a hot and rainy Springfield, New Jersey, but that doesn’t mean the PGA Championship will not be a competitive and exciting tournament. One...

However, he is still listed as +800 chalk (bet $100 to win $800) at sportsbooks monitored by Odds Shark. Johnson’s main competition is expected to come from another pair of previous major winners in Irishman Rory McIlroy and Australian Jason...
