Last year’s PGA Championship was one we’ll never forget. Had 200/1 longshot Mito Pereira to win along with Will Zalatoris. Check out the 2022 PGA Championship previews and feel my pain as Pereira stood on the 72nd hole Sunday needing a par to win the major tournament. He made a double-bogey. Zalatoris was in a playoff with Justin Thomas, and Will Z also lost. Ugh.

Next week it’s the Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial CC in Fort Worth, TX, where we cashed a big underdog match-up winner in 2021 during our smoking hot  17-5 on tournament match-ups start.
