Aronimink Chaos & A Seven-Way Tie - May 15th, 2026

On May 15th, 2026, a brutally firm Aronimink yielded a massive seven-way tie for the PGA Championship lead amidst bizarre rules debates, emotional admissions, and flying divots.THE SEVEN-WAY TIEA brutally firm Aronimink created a massive seven-way logjam at three-under 67, featuring Scottie Scheffler, a pain-free Martin Kaymer, Min Woo Lee, and 21-year-old Aldrich Potgieter showcasing historic power to tame the demanding layout.Lee changed his Thursday mindset to "go at some pins," while Scheffler begged the Philly crowd to "please please stop beating our football team so bad."Scheffler's wife joked about his recent runner-up streak, and co-leader Ryo Hisatsune calmed his opening-round nerves by sipping from a water flask he jokingly calls his "sake bomb."RAHM, BRYSON & BIZARRE BLUNDERSJon Rahm holed a spectacular 101-yard eagle to shoot 69, but the real drama came from Bryson DeChambeau’s disastrous 76 and Garrick Higgo receiving a brutal two-stroke penalty for missing his tee time by 30 seconds.Higgo offered some incredible circular logic: "I would not have been late if I knew I was running late," while Bryson debated concrete stairs rules, stating, "I am so confused right now."Paul McGinley revealed Bryson is currently under an agent-mandated "gag order," and a distressed Rahm is trying to "track down" a volunteer he accidentally hit with a flying divot to give him a present.HEARTBREAK & GRAND SLAM HOPESBrooks Koepka fought through "absolutely horrendous" putting to post a 69, matching Jordan Spieth who kept his career Grand Slam hopes alive. Meanwhile, Rory McIlroy stumbled to a frustrating opening-round 74.McIlroy blamed his struggles on a missing toenail and a failing driver he described with a word for fertilizer.Koepka shared a raw, emotional admission about his wife's tragic miscarriage last October, noting he has finally "refound my happiness."Quick HitsMichael Block's mirrorless bathroom pep talk: "you are actually pretty good buddy" • Shane Lowry's 68 features a wild 360-degree lip-in • Cameron Young mashes a 2028-conforming Titleist rollback prototype ball 312 yards • Phillies legend Ryan Howard admits a phobia of two-foot putts Hosted on Acast.
