2018 PGA Championship

Today starts the last major championship of this PGA season. Too much is made of the 4 majors, but they are usually fun to watch.
This year they are playing at Bel Rieve Country Club in St; Louis. The last time I saw a tournament played there was in the mid-60s. I remember the course as long. Today's players will likely play it like a pitch and putt course. The greens are very undulating and tricky. There are huge bunkers in play on every hole and water on most holes. Trees can be an issue and the rough will be high enough to be an issue.
However, there will be little wind and the fairways are wide. Recent dam weather will make them seem wider and the greens will be receptive.
In short, it will be a fair test. Unlike the USGA, the PGA has no problems with low scores. Last year, at Quail  Hollow, they got carried away and had glass like freens and vrutal rough and that made for a fairly boring tournament. no one could risk anything around the green and it is not really entertaining to watch players just struggling to chop the ball out of rough, hoping to make the fairway. By all early repeat that this year.
In an earlier post, I said that Bubba Watson will win this tournament. After 3 wins this year, he has cooled off, but this is the kind of old style course he loves. so. I'm sticking with him. Of course, I picked Martin Kaymer to win the open, so you may not want to place a ton of money on Bubba just in my say so. Whoever wins, it should be fun to watch. Take a little tine this weekend, out your feet yo and enjot what should be an unteresting and exciting 4 rounds.
