The second major of the 2024 golf season continues being contested with plenty of big-time players looking to set a tone for the remainder of the campaign. This as the beautify of May surrounds Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville with the PGA Championship returning to town for the first time in a decade.
An unfortunate wrench was thrown into the tournament Friday morning as, in unrelated incidents, a pedestrian was killed outside the Valhalla grounds in a traffic incident and world No. 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler was arrested for violating traffic rules. Even before this shocking incident, Scheffler had an immense amount of pressure on his shoulders. Not only is he attempting to become the first golfer since 2015 to win the first two majors of the year, the 2024 Masters champion is looking for his third straight win on the PGA Tour, which would also make it five victories across his last six tournaments played. The PGA would also mark the second leg of his personal slam journey -- even if he does not complete it this year -- given his major championship mantle consists of two green jackets over the last three years.
Through 36 holes, Xander Schauffele not only holds a one-stroke lead but matched a PGA Championship scoring record sitting 12 under after the first two rounds. While he's been immensely impressive, Schauffele has not separated himself from the pack. Collin Morikawa sits one shot back entering Round 3 with Sahith Theegala two behind looking to break through as a professional. Then there's Scheffler and Bryson DeChambeau leading a significant group within three strokes of Scheffler. In total, there are 21 golfers in striking distance, which means Moving Day should be immense Saturday.
