Players were greeted with a kinder, gentler Aronimink on Saturday at the PGA Championship. However, that doesn't mean everybody went low.
One of those who struggled was two-time PGA Tour winner Brian Campbell. And struggled is putting it lightly.

We hate to pick on Campbell—and, certainly, he's to be commended for making the cut at the year's second major championship. But on Moving Day, he moved all the way to the bottom of the leaderboard. And it's not even close.
Campbell shot a 12-over-par 82, but it wasn't just his score that stood out. As many on Golf Twitter noted, the 33-year-old had a tough time with every aspect of his game.
As you can see, at the time of him finishing his third round, Campbell was dead last in every important statistical category except for two—in which he finished second-to-last. Yikes. Hopefully, he didn't suffer an injury, although that would explain those numbers better, in particular, losing more than 12 shots total to the field.
At 16 over par through 54 holes, Campbell will be in the first group off on Sunday. And while he's got time to practice before that, he's also got a lot of different things to work on.
