TULSA, Okla. — The 2022 PGA Championship is here!
Practice rounds for the tournament wrap up Wednesday at Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa. The tournament tees off early Thursday morning.
Day 3
Golfers and fans came out to a hot and sunshine-filled day ahead at Southern Hills. Wednesday marks the last day of practice for those who decide to hit the course or practice greens, and the last day for player interviews before play starts on Thursday.
The crowds looked to double in size for the final morning of practice for Tiger Woods as he teed off on the front 9.
