Golf: Aaron Rai Lies 4th, Bhatia Tied-29 In PGA Championship
The US Ryder Cup: Venezuelan Jhonattan Vegas, who has never finished in the Top-20 at a Major, shot his best score in the PGA Championship with a 7-under 64 that gave him a two-shot lead in a field that has 98 of the world’s Top-100 players. Another player of Indian interest, Akshay Bhatia, carded 1-under 70 to be Tied-29, but Sahith Theegala pulled out the night before the first day as his strained neck continued to affect his movements.
The two Indian-Americans, as well as Rai, played in the Tour Championships last year and were in the Top 30 of the world. Bhatia and Theegala are Hero Global Ambassadors.
As World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler shot 2-under 69 and World No. 2 Rory McIlroy carded 3-over 74, Indo-British Aaron Rai did well to shoot 4-under 67 and was in a tie for fourth with European Ryder Cup captain, Luke Donald, 47, who shot the day’s only bogey-free round of 67. The US Ryder Cup captain, Keegan Bradley, shot 68.
