Woods has never won a Major coming from behind, and given his narrow four-stroke deficit heading into the final round of the PGA Championship at Bellerive, it’s worth looking at the times he’s at least come close.
After holding its own on Day 1, the field set Bellerive aflame on Friday. Gary Woodland set the PGA’s 36-hole scoring record. Brooks Koepka and Charl Schwartzel tied the single-day mark with a pair of 63s.
Friday morning at Bellerive, Adam Scott carded a tidy five-under 65 to climb into contention five shots back after the morning wave at the PGA Championship.
We’re all pretty used to seeing golfers with athletic tape on their overused, injured bodies. But the flesh-coloured patch of tape that Rory McIlroy had on his right forearm at the PGA Championship is a bit different.
These guys aren’t among the favourites this week at Bellerive Country Club, but under the right circumstances they could all find themselves in contention come Sunday.
