2014 PGA Championship Day Four This And That Thread
/Valhalla received another downpour Sunday morning, leaving the course even more saturated for a diverse cast of characters to make a run at the year's final major.
With 500 votes, 47% of you think Rory is going to win, 30% think it'll be Rickie and 12% voted for Phil. Looks about right but crazy things happen.
Saturday's third round action will be hard to top, especially with more tucked holes and no apparent freebies like yesterday's fourth hole setup.
Rory McIlroy's finish Saturday helped mask a day of so-so shots, as Derek Lawrenson highlights in his game story focusing on McIlroy's powerful birdies at 16 and 18. Sam Weinman isn't sold that McIlroy will have it easy Sunday. The video isn't available, but Frank Nobilo had some interesting analysis last night on Live From of Rory's post-round "no matter what happens" remarks, which could be taken either as that of a confident golfer willing to put himself on the line, or of someone who isn't quite as confident in his game as the rest of us are. Weather willing, we should know around 6:50 p.m. ET.
Jason Day's second hole par Saturday continues to be the talk of the tournament, as was David Feherty's role in helping him find the ball. Luke Kerr-Dineen with the GIF's of the search and creek crossing. GolfChannel.com with the compilation of Saturday's best, including Day's shot.
I wrote a little about Bernd Wiesberger so you know a little more about this classy Austrian whose third round 65 has him in the final pairing.
John Strege on the Live From guys practically declaring their unrequited love for Rickie Fowler, who does seem due to win one of these after the year he's had in majors.
Phil Mickelson showed up early Sunday and to use that final lesson in the series he bought from Butch Harmon, Golf Channel's Todd Lewis reports. Here's Matthew Rudy on another Phil Mickelson finish to set up a shot at the Wannamaker Trophy. Rex Hoggard thinks the Sunday pairing with Rickie Fowler will be great for both Phil and Rickie.
Separate of the big name leaders, Jeff Babineau notes that Brooks Koepka has another stellar tournament in the book heading into Sunday.
