Day, Todd share lead; Koepka one back - PGA Championship San Francisco: Golf news
The HinduJason Day and Brendon Todd shared the lead after the first round of the PGA Championship while Brooks Koepka got his bid for a three-peat off to a solid start and Tiger Woods found success with a new putter in the first major of the COVID-19 era. “It allows me to spend the next 12 hours before my second round feeling really good, like I've got momentum still.” Koepka, Justin Rose, Xander Schauffele, former world number one Martin Kaymer and Zach Johnson were among a group of nine one shot off the pace in the first major championship since the July 2019 British Open. I was able to do it but I didn't think there would be that many guys four under or better,” Woods said after his lowest opening round score in a major championship since 2012. Four-times major champion Koepka, who fell short of a third consecutive U.S. Open title last year, said he was very relaxed during a round in which he made six birdies and two bogeys.
