Bradley Wins PGA Championship In Playoff

A guy with Wyoming ties won the PGA Championship. Keegan Bradley rallied from five strokes down with three holes to play to beat Jason Dufner in a three hole playoff at the Atlanta Athletic Club course.

Bradley lived in Jackson for three summers while he was a college student at St. Johns. His father Mark is the Head Professional at the Jackson Hole Golf and Tennis Club. Keegan's aunt is Hall of Fame LPGA golfer Pat Bradley. Keegan won the Wyoming State Amateur Championship in Rock Springs in 2006, finishing second in 2005. Bradley won the Wyoming Match Play Championship in 2007 at 3 Crowns in Casper. On the course yesterday Bradley was magnificent down the stretch with a huge birdie put on 17 and won two out of the three playoff holes. He's the first golfer since 2003 to win a major tournament in his first attempt.
