PGA GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP
August 14, 2015  | By David Bianculli

TNT, 2:00 p.m. ET

 
Under changing and increasingly challenging playing conditions, Dustin Johnson (pictured) took the first-day lead at the PGA Golf Championship yesterday – a feat he also achieved this year at the U.S. Open and British Open, becoming the first golfer in history to take the opening lead in three consecutive majors. But though he finished yesterday with a 6-under-par 66, Johnson still has his work cut out for him, because he didn’t end up winning either of those other 2015 majors. Other notable first-day performances: David Lingmerth shot a 67, Jason Day a 68, Jordan Spieth and Rory McIlroy shot 71s, Phil Mickelson a 72, and the still-struggling Tiger Woods a 75. Today, Day 2, with afternoon winds expected to make play tougher.
