Welcome to PGA Tour Brunch – 1st Look at Charles Schwab Challenge

The 2021 Charles Schwab Challenge is the 35th of 50 events on the PGA Tour. The tournament is played at the famed Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas and is set-up at 7,209 yards.

Last year, the 2020 Charles Schwab Challenge marked the PGA Tour’s return to competition after a 12-week hiatus due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. The 91-day gap between the cancellation of THE PLAYERSChampionship and the first round of the Charles Schwab Challenge represented the longest unscheduled break from PGA Tour competition since World War II.

Phil Mickelson, 50, won his sixth major championship title at last week’s PGA Championship, becoming the oldest major winner in history and the sixth-oldest winner of any tournament in PGA Tour history. Two of Mickelson’s 45 career PGA Tour victories have come at the Charles Schwab Challenge (2000, 2008) and he will be making his third start in the event since 2010 (T-29/2017, MC/2020). The last player to win the week after winning a major: Tiger Woods, 2006 (PGA Championship, WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational)

Dallas native Jordan Spieth has three consecutive top-10s in the state of Texas, highlighted by his 12th career PGA Tour title at the Valero Texas Open. His others: T-9/WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play, T-9/AT&T Byron Nelson). Spieth, who won at Colonial in 2017, enters the week at No. 9 in the FedExCup standings.


Tournament Tee Times begin Thursday at 7:10am (local)/8:10am (EDT) through 1:39pm (local)/2:39pm (EDT).

Weather: Thursday’s forecast calls for mostly sunny skies and temperatures in the low 80s. Winds will blow at 14 mph with 69% humidity and a 10% chance of rain. The Friday forecast is calling for scattered thunderstorms and a 40% chance of rain in 80% humidity.

Lefty Sends Father Time Packing

May 24, 2021 by PGA Tour Brunch

KIAWAH ISLAND – In the Year 2021, Father Time is 0-2. First it was Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Tom Brady turning the NFL upside down with his 2021 Super Bowl victory at age 43. This weekend, it was Phil “Lefty” Mickelson winning the PGA Championship, a major in pro golf, at age 50. He earned $2,160,000 for the effort.

Mickelson won his sixth major championship title, and second at the PGA Championship, at the age of 50 years, 11 months, 7 days, becoming the oldest major winner in PGA Tour history and first player to win a major after age 50.

The victory span of 30 years, 4 months, 10 days passed since Mickelson’s first PGA Tour title at the 1991 Northern Telecom Open as an amateur, and it marks the longest time between wins by a player in Tour history.

Mickelson is now the fourth player to win PGA Tour events in four different decades. The others: Sam Snead, Raymond Floyd, Davis Love III)

Brooks Koepka finished T-2, his seventh win or runner-up finish in a major since the start of 2017.

Louis Oosthuizen (T-2) recorded his fifth runner-up in his 49th major championship start. No player has more runner-up finishes in PGA Tour majors since 2012.

Harry Higgs finished T-4 in his first major appearance

PGA Tour Brunch – PGA Championship Notebook 

Five-time major champion and 2005 PGA Championship winner Phil Mickelson holds a one-stroke lead and is looking to become the first player to win a men’s major championship after turning 50 years old. Mickelson is the fourth player to hold the 54-hole lead/co-lead in a major at age 50 or older during the modern era (1934-present).

Mickelson is 3-for-5 with the 54-hole lead/co-lead in major championships (21-for-36 in 72-hole PGA Tour events).

Sunday’s final pairing includes two players that have combined for nine major championship titles (Mickelson/5, Brooks Koepka/4). Koepka, the 2018 and 2019 PGA Championship winner, is one stroke back of Mickelson.

Koepka will attempt to win the same major three times in a four-year stretch. The last player to accomplish that feat was Tom Watson at The Open Championship (1980, 1982, 1983).

PGA Tour Brunch – PGA Championship Notebook

Corey Conners holds the third 18-hole lead/co-lead of his PGA Tour career and second of the season but he is 0-for-2, to date, converting. This is Conners’ best position after any round in a major championship entering the week. His previous best was solo-sixth after the third round of the 2021 Masters Tournament.

Defending champion Collin Morikawa stands T-8; seven different players have won back-to-back at the PGA Championship.

Brooks Koepka opened his PGA Championship with a score in the 60s for the sixth consecutive year, the longest such streak at any major championship in the modern era (since 1934). The previous record of five was held by Jack Nicklaus, who recorded five consecutive first-round scores in the 60s at the Masters Tournament from 1972-1976.

Entering the week with top-10s in each of his last four starts on the PGA Tour, Jordan Spieth (T-41) carded a 1-over (73). Spieth can become the sixth player to complete the Career Grand Slam with a win this week (major championship titles: 2015 Masters Tournament, 2015 U.S. Open, 2017 The Open Championship).

Welcome to PGA Tour Brunch at PGA Championship

It’s Opening Round for the 2021 PGA Championship and the PGA of America has set-up a LONG golf course. At 7,876 yards, the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Resort will be the longest course on record in major championship history. The previous mark of 7,741 yards was held by the 2017 U.S. Open at Erin Hills.

World No. 1 and reigning FedExCup champion Dustin Johnson has finished as runner-up at the PGA Championship in each of the last two years, becoming the first player to do so since Jack Nicklaus (1964, 1965). Johnson withdrew before the start of last week’s AT&T Byron Nelson due to a knee injury.

Three of the four events this season awarding 600 FedEx points to the winner have been won by players entering the week in the Top 10 in the Official World Golf Ranking: Bryson DeChambeau, 2020 U.S. Open (9); Dustin Johnson, 2020 Masters (1); Justin Thomas, The PLAYERS (3).

There have been just five first-time PGA Tour winners this season: Carlos Ortiz, Vivint Houston Open; Jason Kokrak, The CJ CUP @ Shadow Creek; Joel Dahmen, Corales Puntacana Resort & Club Championship; Sam Burns, Valspar Championship; K.H. Lee, AT&T Byron Nelson.

Nine of the top 10 players in the FedExCup standings are in their 20s, led by No. 1 Bryson DeChambeau. The only player 30 or older in the top 10 is Stewart Cink (7).

Welcome to PGA Tour Brunch – 1st Look at PGA Championship

The 2021 PGA Championship is the 34th of 50 events on the PGA Tour. It is organized by the PGA of America.

Collin Morikawa won his first major championship title at the 2020 PGA Championship and will attempt to become the eighth player to successfully defend his title.

Five players have won the Career Grand Slam and Jordan Spieth can become the sixth with a win on the Ocean Course. Spieth won the 2015 Masters Tournament, 2015 U.S. Open and 2017 Open Championship.

The 2021 PGA Championship will be played at the Pete and Alice Dye-designed Ocean Course at Kiawah for the second time in tournament history and first since 2012. In 2012, Rory McIlroy won the tournament by eight strokes, the largest margin of victory in PGA Championship history.

McKINNEY, TEXAS – In the final round, K.H. Lee birdied four of first six holes and 71st and 72nd holes to claim his first PGA Tour victory.
