Holly Sonders Strips Down The PGA Championship To Bare Basics

Note: We are proud to welcome Holly Sonders to the OutKick content family. Holly will be writing about golf, beginning with this week’s PGA Championship.

Today I came home from work, removed my schoolgirl outfit and thigh highs, and decided to do a deep dive into the PGA Championship. If you can get that image out of your head, keep reading.

It will be the first time the PGA Championship returns to Kiawah Island since 2012 when Rory McIlroy last hoisted the Wanamaker Trophy.  It’s been SEVEN YEARS since the Northern Irishman won his last major, and this fucker is definitely due for another. The Fan Duel Sportsbook currently has Rory listed as the favorite to pull it off this weekend at +1100

But what about the rest of the field? The hottest player this past calendar year on tour has been the long bombing Bryson DeChambeau (+1900). But his stats will tell you he has a better chance of fitting his biceps into a smedium polo than finding fairways at the Ocean Course. Those things are mowed tighter than well, you know. I digress …

For me, I’m looking at those in Bryson’s first-round pairing on Thursday: Reigning PGA Champion Collin Morikawa (+3000) AND reigning Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama (+3300). Those two really get me going this week. Proven major champions and absolute machines when it comes to pressure situations. 

But at 8,000 yards, Kiawah will be a beast this week. And it will take someone who can pipe it out there far enough to finesse his way to the green with a short iron instead of a hybrid. So don’t count Brooks Koepka (+4500) out of any setup like this. Ever. We may see something special from him this week. 

And if Brooks pulls it off, I’ll bust out my assless chaps for a celebration Sunday. How many strokes will it take?

  1. I’m tired of seeing Holly Sonders on the site. This is a girl who has suffered some sort of trauma in her life because women from nurturing families don’t strip and put their pictures on sites like Fans Only. I really wish Outkick could get over putting these women here because there are literally thousands of other sites you can see psychologically damaged women

  2. Yeah, she is stunningly gorgeous — that is obvious! But the pics and the f***** language actually detracts from her having any kind of credibility at all when it comes to writing a golf piece. Yes, you can be gorgeous AND have the knowledge to write an article of any kind — but it makes her entire article a hell of a lot less believable when you attach barely clothed pics along with the article. Not that I didn’t like the pics, she’s amazingly hot — but there are other websites for pics of this nature and whatnot. And in closing, I guess I don’t have a prayer in Hell of dating her, do I?

  3. Clearly a love it or hate it situation going on here.

    I don’t mind it, but I’d certainly love to see some additions that bring actual journalism into the fray instead of retweets, screen caps and reporting on other reporters reports. Not that that doesn’t occur here, I’d just like to see more of it.
