Due to heavy thunderstorms that pounded Oakland Hills Country Club on Saturday afternoon, the third round of the 90th PGA Championship was suspended until Sunday morning. Play in the season's final major will resume at 7:15 a.m. ET, with the final twosome of leader J.B. Holmes and Charlie Wi scheduled to tee off at 7:40 a.m. ET.

If Garcia can’t get it done now, without Tiger in the field he may never win a major. I think Curtis is going to win.
Don’t count Stenson out. He’s been playing quite well in the majors. I’m off to view the tournament but will return periodically.
It is certainly wide open. Who knows maybe Rose will get it done. I’d go with Curtis just because he’s won a major. The Players is almost a major so maybe that helps Sergio.
He also, around the same time, built the course at the Sagamore in Bolton Landing.
What a challenge and what a treat to play on.
It's always the strongest field.
Rational people could disagree on this...
I think it probably should be considered a major and Greg Norman’s 24 under is the best four rounds of golf I’ve seen anyone play. That includes Tiger at Pebble and the Old Course in 2000.
I’ve watched almost every major this year on TV...because of Tiger. Without Tiger, I frankly don’t care. I’m not a golfer, but I love to watch the mastery of Tiger Woods.
Tiger Woods is the mentally toughest athlete in the world. In terms of skills I still think Mickelson is on par with him. But when Woods needs to make a par saving put to keep a round going, he makes it. He’s unreal.
I’m not sure any cares about this. No Tiger and I even heard that the Detroit papers didn’t even have this tournament on their front pages (of course the mayor was going to jail). The sport sure does miss Tiger.
I didn’t realize Harrington was so close to the lead. He’s my pick now.
>I'd go with Curtis because he's a buckeye from oHIo. Watch out for Paddy of British Open fame. He's suddenly in the hunt after a terrific morning.
You are so right. There are a few Ross couses here in Ohio and they are all gems. We've even got a MacKenzie (The Eagles in Hamilton, Ohio), 27 holes of pure pleasure..
You are added to the ping list

That's what I'm hoping. that little creep is in the same category as Rory Sabatini to me.
you could be right. Let’s see what the ratings prove.
Just scrolling down, I see you've come to the same possibility as I have.
Is FR slow today? Wow. I'm swithching between the USA/China water polo match and the PGA.
Did the USA crush the Chicom hosts in B Ball or what???
good call
