Nike Golf had a decent showing at the 2011 PGA Championship. While Dyson was the top swoosher after Day 1, Vegas stole the thunder after day 2, both athletes being inside the Top 10 at one point or another. Then it was Charl Schwartzel’s turn who was T8 after the 3rd Round. Charl put up a 3rd round 66, while Francesco Molinari put up a 3rd round 67.
In the end, Charl Schwartzel picked up his 8th consecutive Top 30 in a Major and his 7th straight Top 20 in a major. Tiger disappointed and AK just missed the cut, but it was a fun event and I didn’t miss having Tiger in contention. I honestly feel bad for anyone that didn’t want the final round.
Here are the full results from the Nike Golf athletes, complete with their updated World Golf Rankings;
T12 :: Charl Schwartzel :: 71 71 66 71 :: -1
He’s just a stud. Woo woo woo

Pre-PGA World Ranking – 23
Current Ranking – 22
T51 :: Simon Dyson :: 68 72 71 75 :: +6

T51 :: Jhonattan Vegas :: 70 68 74 74 :: +6

Current Ranking – 105
T72 :: Paul Casey :: :: 72 72 78 72 :: +14
At least he made the cut! He should have a really big bounce back year. That 78 was tough.
Pre-PGA World Ranking – 16
Current Ranking – 17
————— CUT (+4) —————
CUT :: Anthony Kim :: 74 71 :: +5
If 6 more guys were +5 or higher, AK would have made the cut. He actually played a great second round. A couple holes on Day 1 cost him.
Pre-PGA World Ranking – 61
Current Ranking – 66
CUT :: Stewart Cink :: 69 78 :: +7
Cink was T13 after round 1. Too bad he blew up.

Current Ranking – 88
CUT :: Jeff Coston :: 76 73 :: +9
Cos beat Tiger Woods, Vijay Singh, Webb Simpson, Graeme McDowel, Louis Oosthuizen, Darren Clarke and a bunch of other guys. Good for him.
CUT :: Tiger Woods :: 77 73 :: +10
Tiger, Tiger. Started with so much promise… -3 thru his first 5 holes, then blew up like ACME TNT.
Pre-PGA World Ranking – 30
Current Ranking – 33
CUT :: Lucas Glover :: 80 75 :: +15
I thought he was going to contend. Tough go for LG.
Pre-PGA World Ranking – 57
Current Ranking – 59
CUT :: Scott Erdman :: 80 81 :: +21
Had the 2nd worst total score after Friday. I’m sure he had a blast, though!
