Brooks Koepka entered Saturday at the PGA Championship with a seven-stroke lead after setting a new major record with a two-round total of 128.The field's only chance to get close on Moving Day was the three-time major champ coming back to the pack. Unfortunately for them, that didn't happen.After opening with a par, Koepka got the birdie train rolling once again, hitting a dart to 5 feet on the par-4 second hole that was so good it appeared to break the ShotTracer:

Despite the blemish, Koepka went out in 34 and headed to the back nine with a commanding lead.Koepka started his inward nine with another bogey at the par-4 10th hole, but was able to rebound from his first back-to back bogeys of the week with a par on 11th hole.Koepka finally got back on the birdie train on the par-5 13th hole. After finding trouble to the right of the fairway on both his drive and his second shot, the 29-year-old stuck his third shot to 16 feet and promptly sank the birdie putt to get back to 1 under on the day:

Footwork is critical to balance and creating force but does not direct the golf club. After observing this dynamic for some 35 years I have reached the conclusion that the body reacts to the position of the club. Not the other way around.

I just have to figure it out and try to create a good balance to find a prep of what I need to work on. Nowhere does the Tiger mystique hang over an event more than at the Masters. That is, which golfer's legacy would we think about most
