Players, PGA of America officials and architecture gurus say a US PGA Championship at Bethpage Black will add an element of excitement – and terror, for some – during a New York spring.
Curious how much everybody made for their efforts in the year’s final men’s Major? Here’s the breakdown for the prizemoney every player who made the cut earned this week at Bellerive.
Brooks Koepka stared down his idol Adam Scott and ignored the noise of a Tiger Woods-generated Sunday roar to claim a pulsating 100th US PGA Championship at Bellerive Country Club in St Louis.
Brooks Koepka won his second Major of the season and third of his career by combining the kind of solid ball striking with good in-close putting to win by two over Tiger Woods at Bellerive Country Club.
Scott is known for using his broomstick Scotty Cameron by Titleist centre-shafted Kombi Long mallet, but also has a conventional-length Scotty Cameron by Titleist 340, often referred to as a Newport 2 Timeless.
These guys aren’t among the favourites this week at Bellerive Country Club, but under the right circumstances they could all find themselves in contention come Sunday.
