PGA Championship

[CMIZ5290]

Brooks Koepka is 12 under after two rounds at Bethpage Black for the PGA Championship....Are you kidding me?

[mq711]

He is like a machine, lord help the field if his putter stays hot.

[Goudey77]

Koepka is the Rodney Dangerfield of golf. No respect

[CMIZ5290]

Here is his resume in the last 8 Majors.....4 wins, and 1 runner up at this years Masters....If he wins this PGA, he would have won back to back U.S. Opens, and back to back PGA's....That's even beyond Tiger Woods in the day....Having said that, I'm not fond of his attitude and remarks to the media....He's a cocky MF.....

Woods is 17 shots back. Yikes. Oh now I see he didn't make the cut even.

Tiger played terrible today. I thought he looked wiped out, too. Now he has the weekend to rest up. I’m a big Tiger fan, but this was ugly.

No, it's not. Woods won four majors in a row (the "Tiger Slam") in 2000-01 and five of six.

1999 PGA; Won
2000 Masters: Fifth
2000 U.S. Open: Won
2000 British Open: Won
2000 PGA: Won
2001 Masters: Won

I believe what Kevin means is that to win 2 Opens & 2 PGA's ( or ANY 2 Majors) back-to-back has NEVER been done before by ANYONE, including Tiger.

Koepka is beginning to look like a machine to me, altho his finish Sat looked more human. I'm like several of you--I can't believe his game, but his attitude is a bit haughty!

[MrPosadas]

Brooks is an animal. If he takes the PGA Championship that translates to winning half of the majors from the last two years. Doesn’t get the respect he deserves.

Tiger is the Pujols of golf now. Still can hit a home run with an exemplary career record, but

Koepka is the Trout now in his prime with an outstanding future ahead of him.

Edited for Sam.

Koepka is the Trout.

Not accurate, but nice try.

Did anyone else see Koepka's quote before this tournament about how easy majors are to win compared to regular tournaments? I think it makes his performance stand out even more. The other guys had to be gunning for him after he basically said at least half the field can't win and half of those who can will choke and won't be a factor.

The dude definitely has a 'tude. I have mixed feelings about it, I guess. On the one hand it's refreshing to see a trash talking golfer who can back it up, I mean hell it's just a sport why not everyone else is doing it. On the other hand, there is something appealing about golf being above all that.
