I honestly feels this year has had 4 excellent majors. Only the US open was tarnished a little due to poor greens but the actual excitement was still there.

The right guy won after so many near misses over the past five years. Good on you cobber!

I was thinking that the PGA used to have the reputation as the poor relation of the majors, but this one was excellent.

Plus is there an argument to say that it was the best course a Major was played on this year, certainly of the US ones in terms of scoring opportunities and excitement? I suppose it's sacrilege to say it was better than St Andrews as you can't separate the history from the course. But personally I'm a bit bored of Augusta with every grass blade being seemingly painted dark green and manicured to withing an inch of its life, the insistence you can't start the TV coverage until half way through the day and all that 'patrons' stuff they come up with. Much preferred Whistling Straits if I'm honest. Plus you can actually play it.

Was I the only one that thought his Mrs had put on a few pounds ?

Great performance. He seems to be able to play under pressure, and a lot of the majors he just missed out on, he still played well in the last round. Think he could win quite a few more now.

I think the phrase "so-and-so deserves to win a major" is vastly over used especially when it comes to a few well loved Europeans, but IMO is very very deserving of Jason Day and I was very happy to hear that he'd won.

It was great watching him walk onto the 18th green and his Son run on after he'd holed out.
Speith showed real class,as did Rory.

Great win by the Flipino Australian , my wife watch him and she is not a golf fan , after his fall at the US Open its great to see him overcome his illness and win in style , he has been knocking on the door for a few years now and now his Day as come .......................EYG

Great stuff from Jason Day. Have warmed to him after he showed just how disappointed he was at missing the play-off at the Open.

And there was me thinking that people preferred US Open-style "struggling for par" type Majors.....
Almost universally commended as one of the best Majors and it was won with a record under par score.
Just sayin'.....

I preferred this free scoring game. After a short while, watching the worlds best playing shots like we all do from deep cack, or putting off the green is no longer funny and I'd prefer -20 scores and brilliant shot making

One of the best ever ?! Really ?

I know Monty kept blerting that out but it lacked excitement on every day for me to the point I switched off every day

It was some very good golf but lacked excitement and flair that we have seen in two other majors this year and many previously

Loved this major. In my opinion was the best one this year. Glad Day won as well. Hes been one of my favourite golfers for a while and after his performance he could well get top spot. Love his game. Was cheering after every putt he made. Speith impressed me too. I used to think he was an egotistical moron but he does seem like a top guy and the 'Holy Snap Hooks' made me chuckle.
