If in the morning shift at PGA Championship Jon Rahm, Rory McIloroy and Jordan Spieth attracted the attention of the public, in the afternoon the main match was made up of Scottie Scheffler (67), Justin Rose (70) and Matt Fitzpatrick (70). The Philadelphia public took a liking to the number 1 in the world cheering for the Eagles and perhaps this spurred on a staunch Dallas Cowboys fan.
After the first round, the bad result for McIlroy (74)who signed what may be his worst final of the round with five bogeys – and one birdie – in the last six holesand the great hit by Bryson DeChambeau (76). In the press room they asked the Northern Irishman to define his result in one word: “Shit”said. And the fact is that he did not play badly until that final stretch, in which some bad start was combined with those greens of Aronimink Golf Clubin which depending on where you bounce the ball, it takes you off the green itself or sends it to the bottom. Afterwards he stayed on the practice field for a long time.
Bryson also finished his round very badly and is the LIV star with the worst result, since Rahm, Niemann and Smith signed 69. The other Spanish in the super league, David Puig, shot 71while Ángel Ayora materialized 72. At this point we cannot say that Xander Schauffele (68) and Patrick Reed (68) be two covered. On the contrary, these are two candidate firms and there are many big names up there. Martin Kaymer’s 67 was surprising (the best in the LIV) winner of two majors but far from any important fight for years. Along with him at the top of the classification, Scheffler, Ryo Hitsasume, Aldrich Potgieter, Stephan Jaeger and Min Woo Lee. (Classification)
Scheffler played very well and probably deserved better luck. He didn’t need to show off like Rahm around the green. Yes indeed, On the 14th, Scottie made a very unexpected bogey after missing a three-foot putt. when he came kicking with confidence. Far from cursing, the current tournament champion smiled. The truth is that he hit such accurate shots on the green that his birdies were ‘easy’, except for the cigar he hit on the 7th hole.
