my fb memory from a couple years ago when there was that PGA event in 'Philly' (forget which one/which course?) where I noted how awesome Philly fans were - where normally you would get the typical 'get in the hole', the fans were heard to yell 'KING OF THE NORTH!' and 'GET HIM A BODY BAG JOHNNY!' instead.

Aronimink / BMW Championship. He holds the course record with 4 other players.

Rahm now #1 in the world despite playing a pretty lousy back 9 yesterday (admittedly the two-stroke penalty for moving his ball was a pretty dicey call). His lead was so large a lot of us could have held it coming in.

Have I missed something...where is Koepka lately?

Also, it's hard to believe Jordan Speith has fallen all the way to #60 in the world right now. A few years ago it looked like he'd be in the top 5 for a couple of decades.

There were a lot of bad final rounds yesterday, the course was playing insanely tough. Average Final round score was 75.96.

Ton of young talent. Think a lot of these guys will be battling each other for years to come.

What the hell happened to Spieth. I forgot he only needed the PGA to have the career grand slam.

Morikawa might already be the best iron player in the world. When he putts like he did this weekend he's going to win a lot of goddamn tournaments.
