PGA Championship 2019: Rory McIlroy had the perfect answer when asked what the crowds will be like at the 2024 Ryder Cup at Bethpage
Warren LittleFARMINGDALE, N.Y. — Rory McIlroy is known for being honest, open and thoughtful with the media, almost to a fault. He knows better than anyone that anything he says can become a story. But on Sunday at the PGA Championship, it was something the Northern Irishman didn't say that may grab a few headlines.

McIlroy, who carded a second-straight 69 at Bethpage Black to creep up the leader board, will almost surely be back at the A.W. Tillinghast track on Long Island in 2024, when the Ryder Cup rolls into town. If the fans this week have proved anything, it's that it will be an extremely rowdy affair in 2024, especially with the USA vs. Europe dynamic. We won't know until it happens, but the word “hostile” is one that may be thrown around quite a bit when the biennial competition takes place here in five years.
Following his round, McIlroy was first asked if he'd like..
PGA Championship 2019: Tour pro’s rough week continues with courtesy car accident, embarrassing chat with cop
Michael Kim missed the cut by a single shot at Bethpage Black on Friday. But if that wasn't bad enough, his PGA Championship experience still managed to take a turn for the worse over the weekend.
During Sunday's final round, Kim shared a photo of his courtesy car, which had been “rear-ended on the freeway.” We're guessing he was referring to the infamous Long Island Expressway. What a nightmare that road can be.

Anyway, there's more. After a cop arrived on the scene, the two had a humorous/embarrassing chat in which the officer had no clue Kim, 25, was a PGA Tour pro. To be fair, most hardcore golf fans couldn't pick Kim, a one-time winner on tour. But still, pretty funny that he didn't even consider this an option despite Kim driving a car with PGA Championship logos on it. Here's Kim's Instagram post:

PGA Championship 2019: Brooks Koepka denies girlfriend twice, further proof he’s more machine than man at Bethpage
David Young (photo by David Young/Action Plus via Getty Images)FARMINGDALE, N.Y.—Brooks Koepka, the Terminator ostensibly sent from the future to destroy all competition in golf, explained his major methodology thusly:
“I think I'm more focused than anybody out there,” the cyborg Koepka said on Saturday at the PGA Championship. “I think I'm tunnel-visioned.”
In case his seven-shot advantage heading into the final round at Bethpage Black left any doubt, Koepka illustrated that strategy in front of the cameras Sunday afternoon. With TV crews following his walk onto the property, Koepka, for the world to see, denied girlfriend Jena Sims a kiss.
Twice.

Cold. Blooded.
If it's any consolation, Ms. Sims, you now have an idea how the rest of the sport feels at the moment.

PGA Championship 2019: Phil Mickelson inexplicably hits 3-wood from impossible lie, proves he knows what he’s doing
FARMINGDALE, N.Y. — It doesn't matter if he's shooting a 63 or a 76, Phil Mickelson always has a flair for the dramatic. Put him in front of a New York crowd and you can guarantee he'll go out of his way to produce as many theatrics as possible.

This was precisely the case late in his final round on Sunday at Bethpage Black, one Mickleson had already ejected from at four over through 15 holes. While he probably can't wait to finish this week off and get the hell off Long Island, he's not just gonna stop doing Phil things. At the par-4 16th, following a woeful drive that he blocked into some high rough between 15 and 16 fairways, Lefty went full Lefty, pulling out a 3-wood despite having what looked like an impossible lie. Knowing that this shot could end up anywhere, Mickelson could be heard saying “heads up” to the gallery, followed by “I don't know which way to move them [the fans], I don..
