Martin Kaymer Gets Motivated After PGA Official Asks If He Still Plays
Martin Kaymer speaks after opening the 2026 PGA Championship with a 3-under 67 at Aronimink.
The two-time major champion tells a brilliant Champions Dinner story: a PGA of America official asked him whether he was still playing this week, and Kaymer joked that he had not flown from Europe just to have a New York strip.
Kaymer also explains his driver off the deck on the 9th hole, why Aronimink suits his eye, how he has finally become pain-free after years of injuries and surgeries, and why competing in majors still means so much to him.
Isn`t that the guy who went to LIV to grow the game 😂😂😂. Arrogant prick, met him 2017 at the BMW in Germany, complete as*hole compared to e.g. a great gentleman like Ernie Els at the same venue.
