 They've made the turn in golf's least-major major, the PGA, and so far it is living down to its reputation. Which is to say, the top of leaderboard is occupied by People Greatly Anonymous.

Or maybe you can tell me something -- anything -- about 36-hole leader Jhonattan Vegas, other than he's 40 years old, he's the only Venezuelan with a PGA tour card, and he's won six times in PGA events.

Also, he played his college golf at Texas. So hook 'em horns.

Anyway, Vegas is not exactly a household name, which is why I had to look up all of the aforementioned intel on him. This is no reflection on Vegas, because my depth of golf knowledge goes down about a foot and then fizzles out. But I'd bet the casual fan is looking at the leaderboard this morning and wondering if they've stumbled on the side of a milk carton instead.

Jhonattan Vegas? Si Woo Kim? Matthieu Pavon? Christian Bedzuidenhout, Garrick Higgo, Michael Thorgbjornsen?

They're all tied for seventh or better right now, even if you can't spell half their names. But where's Rory? Where's the defending PGA champ, Xander Schauffele?

Oh, there they are, tied for 62nd with the likes of Bud Cauley, Kevin Yu, Chris Kirk and Sam Burns. But at least they made the cut, unlike, say, Justin Thomas, Jordan Spieth, Shane Lowry and Ludvig Aberg.

This suggests the PGA site, Quail Hollow, plays no favorites, which is what you like to see from the track for one of golf's majors. But I won't say more than "suggests" because ... well, because lookie here: Right there among the milk carton boys are a couple of names you have heard before.

Scottie Scheffler, for instance. And Max Homa.

They're both tied for fifth, three strokes adrift of Vegas, so maybe Quail Hollow does play a favorite or two. In fact, if I were a betting man, I'd put some coin down on Scheffler to be hoisting the Wanamaker Trophy tomorrow evening. 

Caprice being what it apparently is this week, of course, it might just as soon be Vegas, too. Or Kim. Or even Michael Thorgbjornsen, who could Thorg Bjorn the field and grab the big prize.

Stay tuned.
