<\/gu-island><\/span><\/p>\n\n\nA few quotes from the 2024 US PGA champion, Xander Schauffele.<\/strong> The Valhalla winner has finished in the top 10 in 18 of his 35 majors \u2013 a remarkable record. He\u2019s on track for another, and perhaps even a second Wanamaker Trophy, after firing a 2-under 68 earlier. That\u2019s currently just one off the lead.<\/p>\n\ndouble quotation mark<\/title><path d=\"M5.255 0h4.75c-.572 4.53-1.077 8.972-1.297 13.941H0C.792 9.104 2.44 4.53 5.255 0Zm11.061 0H21c-.506 4.53-1.077 8.972-1.297 13.941h-8.686c.902-4.837 2.485-9.411 5.3-13.941Z\"\/><\/svg>It\u2019s always nervy playing in a major, so nice to get off to a good start for sure.

For that, we need Jason Day who likes to wear clothing about five sizes too big for him. Fortunately, he got done before the winds picked up, piecing together a fine 1-under 69. Scheffler, by the way, has just seen a 31-footer for birdie graze the hole at 5 so he stays at +1. Playing partners Matt Fitzpatrick and Justin Rose also make pars, the former showing his mettle by sinking a 10-footer to avoid the dreaded three-putt. Just a note that Rose appears to be battling a stiff back\/side. He was filmed earlier doing a series of twists and lunges on the fairway, more medicinal than Rasputin dance-based.<\/p>\n<footer class=\"dcr-3i7iba\"><gu-island name=\"ShareButton\" priority=\"feature\" deferuntil=\"visible\" props=\"{"size":"xsmall","pageId":"sport\/live\/2026\/may\/14\/us-pga-championship-day-one-live","hash":"block-6a06214d8f086f4020ef77b5","queryParams":{"page":"with:block-6a06214d8f086f4020ef77b5"},"webTitle":"US PGA Championship, day one \u2013 live","format":{"design":11,"display":0,"theme":2},"context":"LiveBlock"}\">Share<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"-3 -3 30 30\" focusable=\"false\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M19 16c1.675 0 3 1.35 3 3 0 1.675-1.325 3-3 3a2.97 2.97 0 0 1-2.975-3c0-.125 0-.275.025-.375L7.1 14.15a2.9 2.9 0 0 1-2.075.825C3.325 14.975 2 13.65 2 12a3.004 3.004 0 0 1 3.025-3.025c.775 0 1.5.35 2.075.875l8.95-4.475c-.025-.1-.025-.225-.025-.4A2.966 2.966 0 0 1 19 2c1.675 0 3 1.325 3 2.975C22 6.65 20.675 8 19 8c-.8 0-1.475-.325-2.05-.825l-8.975 4.45C8 11.7 8 11.825 8 12s0 .3-.025.375l8.975 4.45c.575-.5 1.25-.825 2.05-.825m0-12.8c-.975 0-1.8.775-1.8 1.775S18.025 6.8 19 6.8c1 0 1.825-.825 1.825-1.825S20 3.2 19 3.2m0 17.6c1 0 1.825-.825 1.825-1.8 0-1-.825-1.8-1.825-1.8-.975 0-1.8.8-1.8 1.8 0 .975.825 1.8 1.8 1.8\"\/><\/svg><\/gu-island><\/p>\n<p>Updated at\u00a0<time datetime=\"2026-05-14T19:32:29.000Z\" data-locale=\"en-us\" title=\"Thursday, May 14, 2026 at 03:32 PM Eastern Daylight Time\">15.32 EDT<\/time><\/p>\n<\/footer>\n<\/article>\n<article id=\"block-6a061faa8f086f4020ef77b0\" class=\"block dcr-1os4bxs\">\n<header class=\"dcr-88va8u\"\/>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>The wind has picked up a little for the afternoon starters.<\/strong> But Akshay Bhatia continues to bowl along merrily and the lefty birdies the long par-5 9th to turn in 3-under 32.

What a disastrous end to his round. A four-over 74. To par, that equals his worst-ever showing at the PGA Championship. But it\u2019s a birdie-birdie finish for Jon Rahm, who will be feeling much more chipper for his 69. Chipper being the operative word, seeing he holed out with one twice. And completing the match, it\u2019s a par for Jordan Spieth: given those dropped strokes at 7 and 8, that\u2019s a slightly disappointing one-under round of 69.

And there are more crowd-pleasing antics on the 11th, where Dan Brown holes out from 102 yards for the first eagle of the week! The 31-year-old Englishman is making his major championship debut Stateside, though he finished in the top ten at the 2024 Open. Both Fox and Brown are -2.<\/p>\n<footer class=\"dcr-3i7iba\"><gu-island name=\"ShareButton\" priority=\"feature\" deferuntil=\"visible\" props=\"{"size":"xsmall","pageId":"sport\/live\/2026\/may\/14\/us-pga-championship-day-one-live","hash":"block-6a05e1f48f08f817fdb23750","queryParams":{"page":"with:block-6a05e1f48f08f817fdb23750"},"webTitle":"US PGA Championship, day one \u2013 live","format":{"design":11,"display":0,"theme":2},"context":"LiveBlock"}\">Share<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"-3 -3 30 30\" focusable=\"false\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M19 16c1.675 0 3 1.35 3 3 0 1.675-1.325 3-3 3a2.97 2.97 0 0 1-2.975-3c0-.125 0-.275.025-.375L7.1 14.15a2.9 2.9 0 0 1-2.075.825C3.325 14.975 2 13.65 2 12a3.004 3.004 0 0 1 3.025-3.025c.775 0 1.5.35 2.075.875l8.95-4.475c-.025-.1-.025-.225-.025-.4A2.966 2.966 0 0 1 19 2c1.675 0 3 1.325 3 2.975C22 6.65 20.675 8 19 8c-.8 0-1.475-.325-2.05-.825l-8.975 4.45C8 11.7 8 11.825 8 12s0 .3-.025.375l8.975 4.45c.575-.5 1.25-.825 2.05-.825m0-12.8c-.975 0-1.8.775-1.8 1.775S18.025 6.8 19 6.8c1 0 1.825-.825 1.825-1.825S20 3.2 19 3.2m0 17.6c1 0 1.825-.825 1.825-1.8 0-1-.825-1.8-1.825-1.8-.975 0-1.8.8-1.8 1.8 0 .975.825 1.8 1.8 1.8\"\/><\/svg><\/gu-island><\/footer>\n<\/article>\n<article id=\"block-6a05e1398f0871867a243f00\" class=\"block dcr-1os4bxs\">\n<header class=\"dcr-88va8u\"\/>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>Jordan Spieth finally gets something going.<\/strong> He steers in a 25-foot right-to-left curler on the par-five 16th, and that breaks a run of pars.
