Hunter Mahan recorded his best finish at the PGA Championship in 2014, finishing in a tie for seventh place that year.
Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, will host pro golfers for this year's PGA Championship.
The opening round tees off Thursday, but Mahan is already sharing an interesting observation about this year's golf course.

While the 42-year-old was pleased with the course's overall condition leading into the second major of the 2025 season, he also thought it needed more, referencing a famous A-list family in his argument about the course's shortcomings.

"I guess I would say Quail Hollow is like a Kardashian," Mahan told The Athletic. "It's very modern, beautiful and well-kept. But it lacks a soul or character."
Elsewhere, Dean Burmester also weighed in on Quail Hollow, describing the course as a "monster" and admitting he had only experienced the course through pixels.
"I haven't seen it, but I've played it on PlayStation quite a few times. It's a monster, right?" Burmester noted.
Burmester ended the 2024 PGA Championship in a six-way tie with Rory McIlroy and others for 12th place. McIlroy won the Masters last month to earn his first career jacket.
While the PGA Championship changes courses each year, many golfers on the PGA Tour likely have some familiarity with Quail Hollow. The venue last hosted the PGA Championship in 2017. It also hosted the Wells Fargo Championship numerous times and was also the site of the 2022 Presidents Cup.

Xander Schauffele won last year's PGA Championship, which took place at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky.
Fox News Digital reached out to a rep for the Kardashians for a response to Mahan's comments.

White Sox agree to 1-year contract with left-hander Tyler Alexander
CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago White Sox added pitcher Tyler Alexander on Sunday, agreeing to a one-year contract with the veteran left-hander. Alexander, a Chicago native who turns 31 next month, was designated for assignment by Milwaukee last weekend. He cleared waivers and opted for free agency. Alexander went 3-5 with a 6.19 ERA and one save in 21 appearances for the Brewers this season, including four starts. He had 30 strikeouts and 12 walks over 36 1/3 innings. The White Sox also placed left-hander Jared Shuster on the 15-day injured list before their series finale against Kansas City. Shuster has a blister on his left hand. To make room for Alexander on the 40-man roster, left-hander Fraser Ellard was transferred to the 60-day injured list. Ellard has a left lat strain. Alexander is 20-33 with a 4.67 ERA in 164 career major league appearances, also playing for the Detroit Tigers and Tampa Bay Rays. ___ AP MLB:

Kris Jenner Radiates During Dinner at Nobu After Seemingly Dropping Merch About Her Viral Glow-Up
Kris Jenner enjoyed a girls' night out on Friday, June 6. Jenner, 69, was spotted arriving to dinner at Los Angeles' Nobu hotspot in photos obtained by Us Weekly, dressed chicly in a black coat with embellished flowers and a coordinating pair of sunglasses. For glam, Jenner wore her signature dark tresses in a chic, slightly feathered bob. Several hours earlier, the Kardashians matriarch debuted her newest business venture based on her now-viral plastic surgery results. She dropped a white T-shirt that read, 'I'll have what Kris Jenner is having,' as part of son Rob Kardashian's Arthur George brand. The limited-edition top retails for $40. While Jenner hasn't detailed her merch inspiration, it's been presumed to be a nod to her recent aesthetic glow-up. Us Weekly confirmed earlier this month that Jenner went to plastic surgeon Dr. Steven Levine in New York City for a cosmetic procedure. Kris Jenner Reveals Kylie Jenner's Breast Surgeon Also Did Her 1st Facelift in 2011 While it's not known precisely what Jenner had done, she's previously been candid about her plastic surgery journey. She's gone under the knife for facelifts, an earlobe reduction and got Botox injections. 'Who doesn't love Botox?' Jenner told People in 2019. 'For me, it's been really great. If you're responsible and you talk to your doctor, I think it works. It's something that I've been using for a long time.' Jenner previously had her first facelift in 2011, which was documented on her family's Keeping Up With the Kardashians, and performed by Dr. Garth Fisher. 'Garth, you are such a superstar class act!! You did my first facelift in 2011… 14 years ago and made it the most amazing experience ever,' Jenner wrote via Instagram comment on Wednesday, June 4. '[You] even gave us access to film so that others could get a peek inside what it's like and not be afraid. You have taken great care of us always and remain such a close and treasured friend!! Such an incredible talent!!' This Is the Celebrity Plastic Surgeon Behind Kris Jenner's New Glow-Up Jenner's youngest daughter, Kylie Jenner, recently revealed that Fisher also performed her breast augmentation. "I'm honored to be acknowledged by Kylie — her kind words were unexpected but truly appreciated,' Fisher wrote in a social media statement on Wednesday. 'Patient confidentiality has always been the foundation of my practice. Over three decades, we've never had a single breach. My entire team is thoroughly trained and bound by strict NDAs and confidentiality agreements. This is more than policy — it's our culture.' He added, 'HIPAA (patient privacy) laws are in place to protect patients, and I will never discuss any details of a procedure or procedures unless the patient has chosen to share them or given me permission to discuss. Every patient is unique. This isn't 'cookbook' surgery — it's thoughtful, personalized care.'

You could cut the tension with a needle—7 SteamDB changes in the past week have Silksong hopefuls wondering if the final hour is upon us
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Silksong may, after many long years, finally be releasing—or it may not be. A shadowdrop could be arriving tomorrow, or our eternal vigil may never end. It's either the final 24 hours, or time has no meaning anymore. One thing's for certain: SteamDB has some updates. In addition to the updates released earlier this week, which included achievement data for multiple languages, Silksong has had support for Windows, Mac, and Linux added, visible via SteamDB. At the time of writing, Silksong's minimum requirements don't list Mac or Linux as possible platforms, however, Steam does provide support for them, and developers can prep their store pages to send out platform-specific packages. As always, the Silksong subreddit is being delightfully normal about the news. In one thread, you can even see the ever-cynical doubters (we're well past the point of tribalistic factions) starting to crack. "FUCK MY FLAIR SILKSONG TOMORROW," roars one frantic switcher. "I... CANT... DENY... IT... ANY... LONGER!" writes another, with the tone of the Incredible Hulk swelling out of his shirt. On one hand, it is mighty suspicious that the games' Steam page would receive such a ferocious flurry of updates—seven in total, including this one—before Summer Game Fest. With a bevvy of announcements to come, the idea that Team Cherry's doing some preparatory updating before finally releasing the dang thing isn't entirely out of the question. On the other hand, a few SteamDB updates aren't substantial proof of anything if you aren't scrabbling for every scrap of hope you can. Almost no game since Elden Ring has had this much feverish hype built up behind it and, in a way, the cultish chanting is outstripping what Silksong is likely bound to be: A very good metroidvania. Which, given I've played several since Hollow Knight, is only saying so much. If Team Cherry does do the funniest thing it can and shadowdrop Silksong in a manner of hours, it'll mark the end to all doubting and hoping, all coping and copium. No more daily Silksong news, no more crossed fingers, no more Silkposts. Bait used to be believable, but if it's the dawn of the final day, it shall be absent entirely. All I can say is, if this is indeed the end?
