Xander Schauffele matched the lowest round in major golf history on Thursday, firing a nine-under-par 62 to seize command after the opening day of the PGA Championship.Schauffele already shared the record-low round in major golf history with his 62 from the first round of last year's US Open at Los Angeles Country Club, matched by American Rickie Fowler in the same round and South African Branden Grace at the 2017 British Open at Royal Birkdale.
Rory McIlroy is craving for deja vu to be the order of his week at this 106th USPGA Championship and even this early in proceedings the prospects appear that he could be drowning in the glorious stuff come Sunday.
The American matched the record he had already held with Branden Grace and Rickie Fowler.
