SHEBOYGAN, Wis. – Zach Johnson may get this weekend free to polish the Claret Jug.
The winner of The Open Championship last month, Johnson doesn’t look like he will be adding the Wanamaker Trophy as the PGA Championship winner. In fact, he may be headed home when the cut is finally made at the weather-suspended event. After following up his 3-over-par 75 Thursday with a 72 on Friday, he was one shot off the projected cut line.
Johnson can blame a wayward driver for his early exit. He hit just five fairways at Whistling Straits on Thursday and only seven on Friday.
