TULSA, Okla. – Come Sunday, the hefty, silver Wanamaker Trophy will be hoisted by Will Zalatoris.
Yes, 36 holes remain in the 104th PGA Championship at Southern Hills Country Club. Yes, the skinny youngster from the Lone Star State hasn’t won on the PGA Tour. And yes, there’s some serious firepower in pursuit.
But history is on the side of Zalatoris. Of the seven major championships played at Southern Hills, all were won by a player who led or co-led the tournament through 36 holes. And Zalatoris is atop the leaderboard.
