Bubba Watson Tied PGA Championship Record

TULSA - Will Zalatoris leads after tying the third-best opening 36-hole score (66-65-131) in PGA Championship history. In the seven major championships hosted at Southern Hills, all winners held at least a share of the 36-hole lead.

Bubba Watson equaled the PGA Championship scoring record with a 7-under (63), becoming the third player to do so at Southern Hills (Raymond Floyd/1982, Tiger Woods/2007).

Four-time PGA Championship winner Tiger Woods made the cut for the 18th time in 22 starts at the event while Scottie Scheffler becomes just the third World No. 1 to miss the cut at the PGA Championship

First-round leader Rory McIlroy trails by five shots following a 1-over (71).

Shane Lowry (T-41/+2) extended the longest active streak of cuts made in major championships to 12, dating to a T-8 at the 2019 PGA Championship.

Scheffler, Dustin Johnson, Patrick Cantlay and Daniel Berger among the notables that MTC.
