| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the 92nd Professional Golfers' Association of America (PGA) Championship and the changes made to the Whistling Straits course design from the 2004 Championship, explaining that "the course has been refined to enhance player strategy." Details changes made, adding that "the most talked about changes were to the par-4 500 yard eighteenth hole where [Pete] Dye added a second fairway to the left of the creek that runs down the hole." Provides information regarding player performance, indicating that "Germany's Martin Kymer won the event with a score of 11 under 277." Addresses the turf conditions and its maintenance during the tournament, stating that "the rain and light winds provided for soft conditions and easy scoring for the first two days of tournament play before sunshine and wind firmed things up." Profiles the career of the course superintendent, Christopher Zugel. Provides information regarding his career growth, adding that "it is clear he enjoys the uniqueness of Whistling Straits fescue fairways and the excitement that comes from working with the Pete Dye design and championship golf." |
