Halfway through the 2019 PGA Championship, it's apparent the Seminoles have landed on the Bethpage Black course at Bethpage State Park. Brooks Koepka is garnering all the accolades heading into the weekend after rounds of 63-65-128, 12 under par, but Daniel Berger is holding up his end of the FSU hype with rounds of 70-66-136. He's 4 under par and only one stroke out of second place. Could an unforgettable 1-2 Seminole finish be on the menu for Sunday afternoon?

    Of course, it's never a good idea to crown a king when there are still 36 holes to play, despite how solid Koepka's game is and a 7-stroke lead over Jordan Spieth (69-66-135) and Adam Scott (71-64-135). But, if Koepka slips to 72 today, and one or more of the others shoot two or three under, it could all turn around in a hurry.

    Tiger Woods bowed out after rounds of 72-73-145, 5 over; the cut line is 4 over. Tiger was well inside the line after a front-nine par 35, but bogeys at 10, 11, 12 and 14, offset by just one birdie at 13, killed his chances. He needed one birdie over the last four holes to ensure he would continue playing on the weekend, but he parred all four. 

    Phil Mickelson hung on with rounds of 69-71-140, even par, and is tied for 26th. Gator Billy Horschel's 70-72-142 made the cut by two strokes; he's tied for 47th.
