SPRINGFIELD, N.J. (AP) -- Until a couple weeks ago, Rich Beem didn't know if he was going to play at the PGA Championship.

Beem shot a 69 in his opening round Thursday, his first sub-70 score in a major since 2006. The 45-year-old followed with a 71 Friday to make cut for the first time in the PGA Championship since 2012.

Beem took to Twitter on Friday afternoon to share his excitement: ''Holy crap I made the cut!
