Koepka sets new 36-hole major scoring record, leads PGA by 7 shots

With rounds of 63-65, Brooks Koepka leads the PGA Championship by a tournament-record seven shots. Here’s where things stand through two rounds at Bethpage Black, where Koepka just rewrote the record book:

Leaderboard: Koepka (-12), Jordan Spieth (-5), Adam Scott (-5), Daniel Berger (-4), Dustin Johnson (-4), Kelly Kraft (-4), Matt Wallace (-4), Luke List (-4)

What it means: Koepka is 36 holes from his fourth major title and his second consecutive PGA. His two-round total of 128 is a new major championship record by two, and his seven-shot margin through 36 holes is the largest in PGA history.
