Can anybody catch Brooks Koepka at the PGA Championship?

FARMINGDALE, N.Y. -- The 101st PGA Championship would probably be one heck of a golf tournament -- if Brooks Koepka wasn't here.

Koepka will carry the largest 36-hole lead in a major in 84 years into the third round at Bethpage Black on Saturday.

After following up his record-setting 63 with a 5-under 65 on Friday, Koepka holds a seven-shot advantage over everyone else in the field.

That's the biggest lead in a major championship since Henry Cotton had a nine-shot advantage in the 1934 Open Championship. It's also the biggest lead in PGA Championship history.
