It is really damn impressive when you see the names not on the list. Of the tens of thousands of worldwide professional golfers over the last century, it’s hard to fathom that only 6 have accomplished it. It’s one of the most amazing feats in sports. Statistically, it may be the rarest.

It's no small feat. Lots of golfing legends were never able to accomplish this.

Agree with this. The fact that neither Arnold Palmer or Tom Watson ever won the PGA championship is pretty hard to believe but it's true.

Happy for Rory. He put the whole PGA on his back when everyone else was a sellout to liv. He didn’t have to do it but he did and you could tell it brought a whole lot of stress to his work life and outside life. This was so fricking worth it and I’m so happy for him. Loyalty is everything. FOR RORY!


This! He had the weight of the tour on his shoulders. He might have gotten played by Jay, but he fully committed to the tour and its history and now he is a part of history.

For Rory!!

Which is ironic because this metric is always the most important at Augusta you’d think the math wiz would know this but are the same time he also used to call AN a par 67.

And he's still only 35. He still has another 8-10 years of prime golf left.

Wouldn't be shocked if he ends up with between 8-11 majors by the time he's done if he doesn't decide to retire early. Dude is on another planet right now.
