Six Tied After 18 Holes at The Memorial

June 3, 2022 by PGA Tour Brunch

DUBLIN, Ohio – Cameron Young, who entered the week with Top-3 finishes in his last three starts, has the most Top-fives on Tour this season without a win (5). He is currently among six players tied after 18 holes at The Memorial. That marks the most in tournament history (previously: 4, 1997, 1998).

With an opening 5-under (67), Cameron Smith recorded his lowest score in 17 rounds at the Memorial Tournament. It marks the second time he has posted a sub-par score in his seventh start in the event (previously: 71/R2/2017). Smith has made the cut in the event twice (2017, 2020).

Will Zalatoris (T-7) at (68), has two playoff losses and four additional Top-10s on the season, is one stroke off the lead. He missed cut in only other start at the Memorial Tournament (MC/2018).

In first start since the 2022 Masters Tournament and left wrist surgery in April, 2018 Memorial Tournament winner Bryson DeChambeau opened with a 4-over (76) while Harris English played for the first time since the 2022 Sony Open in Hawaii and hip surgery in February, and posted a 5-over (77).

Chad Ramey withdrew after the first round (back injury).

2014 Memorial Tournament winner Hideki Matsuyama was disqualified for using a non-conforming club (Rule 4.1a). The equipment rules specify what is not allowed (4.c3). Matsuyama apparently applied a substance to his 3-wood club head.

PGA Tour: The Memorial Up Next

June 1, 2022 by PGA Tour Brunch

DUBLIN, Ohio – Just like a holiday party held in January, The Memorial comes rolling in the weekend AFTER Memorial Day in the United States of America, but because of the stature of the great Jack Nicklaus, no one seems to care. Certainly, the strong field is indication of a tournament worthy of GOLF’s GOAT.

The tournament holds elevated status with a prize pool of $12 million and a winner’s share of $2,160,000, a take-away of 550 FedEx Cup points Patrick Cantlay enjoyed last season.

The Memorial is one of three PGA Tour events with such elevated status, along with The Genesis Invitational and the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard.

Muirfield Village golf club – Jack Nicklaus’ signature course – underwent some renovations in the years 202-21 and its green speed is back up to the traditional Memorial tournament zip. The renovation saw irrigation work done, bunkers rebuilt, the reconstruction of greens, resurfaced tee boxes and length added. The course opened in 1974 and has hosted a PGA Tour event every year since 1976.

Spain’s Jon Rahm, who enters the week No. 2 in the Official World Golf Ranking and returns as a past event winner (2020). At the 2021 Memorial Tournament, Rahm held a six-stroke lead after the third round, what would be the largest 54-hole lead on Tour that 2021-22 season, but was forced to withdraw on Saturday evening after testing positive for COVID-19.

Stallings, Scheffler, Hossler Top Charles Schwab Leaderboard

May 28, 2022 by PGA Tour Brunch

FORT WORTH – World No. 1 and FedEx Cup leader Scottie Scheffler posted a second consecutive bogey-free round, carding a 5- under (65) Friday to retain a share of the lead; he is the only player in the field without a bogey.

Making his 10th start and playing his 26th round at the Charles Schwab Challenge, Scott Stallings carded a bogeyfree 6-under 64, his lowest score at the event and tied Danny Lee for the low round of the day.

For a third consecutive Charles Schwab Challenge, an 18-hole leader/co-leader also leads/co-leads after 36 holes (Beau Hossler, Scottie Scheffler/2022; Jordan Spieth/2021; and Harold Varner III/2020)

Since 1990, the second-round leader/co-leader has won the Charles Schwab Challenge 11 times.

Co-leaders are 1-2-3 in Strokes Gained: Approach the Green this week (Hossler/1st; Stallings/2nd; Scheffler/3rd)

Three of the top four players on the leaderboard have fewer than three bogeys through 36 holes: Scheffler (T1/zero), Hossler (T1/two), Patrick Reed (4th/two).

Justin Thomas, winner of last week’s PGA Championship, played Nos. 7-10 at 6-over par on Friday, including a triple bogey at the par-4 ninth, ending the longest active streak of made cuts on Tour at 21, dating back a year to the 2021 Charles Schwab Challenge.

Jon Rahm now has the longest active streak with 11 consecutive made cuts.

PGA Tees-It-Up at Colonial

May 26, 2022 by PGA Tour Brunch

DALLAS/FORT WORTH – Dallas native and University of Texas alum Scottie Scheffler was the hottest golfer in the Rio Grande as he won his first four PGA Tour titles in a span of six starts but that came to a grinding halt when he missed the cut at the PGA Championship last week. It marked his second missed cut of the season and first of the calendar year. He will be making his third start in the Charles Schwab Challenge (MC/2021, T-55/2020).

Reigning PGA Tour Rookie of the Year Will Zalatoris enters the week after earning his fifth Top-10 in his eighth major championship start. The PGA Championship playoff marked the Dallas native’s second playoff appearance of the season (2022 Farmers Insurance Open).

In bid to become the first major championship winner from Chile, third-round PGA Championship leader Mito Pereira finished T-3 in his second career major start. The PGA rookie will be making his Charles Schwab Challenge debut in his 29th career start.

A year ago, Jason Kokrak defeated Jordan Spieth by two strokes to earn Kokrak’s second career PGA Tour victory at the Charles Schwab Challenge. Kokrak was the first player since Francesco Molinari (2017-18) to win their first two TOUR titles in the same season at age 35 or older. Kokrak will attempt to become only the second player to successfully defend their title in Fort Worth, Ben Hogan did it on two occasions (1946-1947, 1952-1953).

Thomas Comeback Highlights PGA

May 22, 2022 by PGA Tour Brunch

TULSA – Justin Thomas, the son and grandson of PGA Professionals, defeated Will Zalatoris in a three-hole aggregate playoff to win the PGA Championship for the second time (2017, 2022). He became the 22nd multiple winner of the event.

In doing so, Thomas came from seven strokes back to tie the PGA Championship record for largest final-round comeback, marking the largest comeback win since Justin Rose came from eight back at the 2017 WGC-HSBC Champions.

Thomas has now won in seven straight seasons on the PGA Tour. That can become the Tour’s longest streak if Dustin Johnson does not win a tournament this season.

This year marks the first time in eight major championships contested at Southern Hills that the 36-hole and 54-hole leader/co-leader did not win the tournament. Thirty-six-hole leader Zalatoris finished runner-up for the third time in 48 Tour starts and scored his fifth Top-10 finish in last seven major starts.

Fifty-four-hole leader Mito Pereira made double bogey on No. 18 to finish T-3 but had the best finish by a Chilean at a major.

Tiger Withdraws From PGA Champ

May 22, 2022 by PGA Tour Brunch

Tiger Woods Forced to WD From PGA Championship

TULSA – Mito Pereira holds a three-stroke lead over Matt Fitzpatrick and Will Zalatoris. It is Pereira’s his first lead after any round on Tour. Pereira is the first player since John Daly (1991) to hold the outright 54-hole lead in their PGA Championship debut.

Pereira is seeking to become the first PGA Tour Rookie to win a major championship since Keegan Bradley at the 2011 PGA Championship.

Tiger Woods withdrew from the PGA Championship after recording his highest score (79) in 79 rounds at the PGA Championship and third-highest personal score ever in a major.

In the seven major championships hosted at Southern Hills, all winners held at least a share of the 54-hole lead.

Danny Willett is the last player to earn his first Tour win at a major (2016 Masters).

May 18, 2022 by Terry Lyons

TULSA – Tiger Woods, who returned from injury at the Masters Tournament in April for his first Tour start since the 2020 Masters, is set to compete this week at the second Major of the 2022 pro golf circuit. Woods, who won the 2007 PGA Championship at Southern Hills Country Club the last time it hosted a major, is tied for the most PGA TOUR wins of all-time (82) and trails only Jack Nicklaus‘ record of 18 major championships by three. Woods enters the week No. 237 in the FedEx Cup standings and No. 818 in the Official World Golf Ranking.

The PGA of America announced on Saturday, May 14, that 2021 champion Phil Mickelson will not compete. The last time a defending champion did not play in a major was Rory McIlroy at the 2015 Open Championship. Mickelson last played on Tour at the 2022 Farmers Insurance Open (MC).

Five players have won the Career Grand Slam and Jordan Spieth can become the sixth with a win. Spieth won the 2015 Masters Tournament, 2015 U.S. Open and 2017 Open Championship, and is making his sixth start in the PGA Championship since the 2017 Open (T-28/2017, T-12/2018, T-3/2019, T-71/2020, T-30/2021).

AT&T Byron Nelson | Tournament Preview

MCKINNEY, TEXAS – The AT&T Byron Nelson is one of the premier events on the PGA Tour since 1968. The TPC Craig Ranch, just north of Dallas/Fort Worth, hosts the biggest golf attraction of the year and the most anticipated social event of the spring because of its yearly financial charity commitment to the community.

Three of the world’s Top 10 professional golfers and six of the Top 20 are scheduled to play with Brooks Koepka having to withdraw this week. Dallas resident Scottie Scheffler claimed his first Green Jacket at The Masters, then kept winning and winning to rocket to the top spot in the Official World Golf Rankings.

Fellow Texans Jordan Spieth, Will Zalatoris and Ryan Palmer are set to return to TPC Craig Ranch, as well.
