PGA Alert: Golf Tournament Will Go On Thursday Despite Fears It Won't Live Up To Early Week Fun

Despite the great fun had by most during the first three days of the liveliest early week major in some time, the giggles must go as we return to the slog that is modern major golf: five hour (if we're lucky) rounds with seemingly endless TNT coverage for the next two days. That'll be followed by more seemingly endless CBS weekend promotions for the new season of NCI Los Angeles, interspersed with golf shots and homages to Herb Kohler and the American Club.

So what do you need to know about the PGA Championship that is rumored to be taking place amidst this week's soap opera? It rained like crazy today so it'll be soft and long the first two rounds. Tiger is playing terribly while he works with his new instructor, Phil is recuperating and we have two positively unpredictable and entertaining Ryder Cup captains who stole the early week show. Even better, we have two more months of their antics! So sit back, get through the PGA and settle in for the event destined to salvage the season: the 2010 Ryder Cup.
