Aaron Rai a surprise major winner only by name as PGA Championship lives up to major reputation‎

The PGA Championship once used a slogan that only illustrated an identity crisis of a major often looked upon as the fourth of four. The 108th edition was every bit of a major, right down to Aaron Rai joining a list of surprise winners that speaks to the beautiful meritocracy in the game, and the shots he produced that will become part of PGA Championship lore. Most memorable was a putt that determined only the margin of victory, just inside 70 feet across the par-3 17th green that Rai later said he was only trying to get close.
