Former Jayhawk Gary Woodland sets PGA Championship record in enemy territory

Former Kansas golfer Gary Woodland followed up a great start with a round good enough to get him in the record book Friday at the PGA Championship.

Woodland had no choice but to play well to stay ahead of Kevin Kisner and everyone else.

On a day of record scoring, the 34-year-old Woodland — he played at KU from 2003-07 — had a 4-under 66 and set the PGA Championship record with a 36-hole score of 130. That was only good for a 1-shot lead over Kisner, who had a chance at the PGA Championship scoring record until a bogey on his last hole for a 64.
