Major Formerly Known As Glory's Last Shot Has Arrived

Yes, Glory's Last Shot is dead, confirmed by the PGA of America Wednesday in their press conference.

Ten seconds of silence please....


 

Okay, now that we have that behind us, the weather forecast looks promising once we get past the early hours Thursday. Many of the world's best are in top form and no matter how you feel about Oak Hill's architectural blend of Ross-Jones-Fazio-Fazio-Schreiner-Marzolf, it has a history of providing drama, so we should be in for a dandy.

I'm sticking with Bill Haas, my Grey Goose 19th Hole pick, both because of his fine play of late and his strong family connection to Oak Hill, scene of father Jay's highest and lowest moments (Senior PGA win, Ryder Cup last hole loss).

Though I did name J.J. Henry as my darkhorse. After all, how often does a PGA Champion WD and magically find that the person he is opening a spot in the field for will emply his regular caddy, who also happens to be that same major winner. Sam Weinman reports on Mark Brooks' move.
