HOLY HELL MAJOR CHAMPIONSHIP GOLF IS BACK… Your Thursday PGA Championship slash afternoon open thread

Hawkey is back, the NBA is back (I think?), based ball is sort-of back who knows, football… again, who knows. All of that stated, golf has been back for six weeks. Granted, there aren’t any galleries, so, it’s been a bit strange, but, I’ll take what I can get at this point. However, today begins the first major of the golfing calendar, the PGA Championship, at Harding Park in San Francisco. With COVID being such fun for everyone, everywhere this year (WEAR A MASK, PEOPLE. IT ISN’T TYRANNY, IT’S PUBLIC HEALTH), we are going to have the 101st PGA Championship without fans in attendance.

Brooks Koepka is looking to be first to win three straight PGAs since Walter Hagan did in the 1910s. Last year’s PGA was the first, and now only, the late, great tWBS and I met and hung out, in real life.

It isn’t The Masters Thursday, but, it is still major championship golf. Sit back, crack a drink, and enjoy in this COVID-era. I would, too, but, wifey is working a 24 hour shift, so, I get to chase the kids around all day. Hello there, gin!
