The Unlikely Champion: Aaron Rai's Historic Victory at Aronimink The 108th PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club will be remembered for years to come, thanks in part to the underdog story that stole the show.
English golfer Aaron Rai emerged victorious in his first major championship, leaving a trail of star studded competitors behind him. Rai's path to victory was far from smooth.
He briefly fell three shots off the lead on the front nine before producing a clutch eagle putt at the par 5 ninth hole.
