Great Golfing Lineage: In addition to being the nephew of World Golf Hall of Fame member Pat Bradley, second round co-leader Keegan Bradley is the son of PGA member Mark Bradley, the PGA head professional at Jackson Hole (Wyo.) Golf and Tennis Club.
 
"I know he's very proud of his PGA Class A status," Keegan said today of his father. "I grew up going to the course with him wherever he was working, and playing from morning until night as much as I could. I was a golf junkie, I guess you could say ... I know he'd love for me to win this one. He's been very influential in my golf career, for sure."
 
36-Hole Cut Two Strokes Higher Than '01: The cut today fell at 4-over par, two strokes higher than the 36-hole cut in the 2001 PGA Championship.
 
Small Survivor: Mike Small, men's head golf coach at the University of Illinois, is the lone PGA Club Professional to make the 36-hole cut. Small, a three-time winner of the PGA Professional National Championship, shot 71 today and is 4-over par for the Championship.
 
Another Short-Lived Defense: For the second consecutive year, the defending Champion failed to survive the 36-hole cut. Martin Kaymer, who won the PGA Championship last year at Whistling Straits in Kohler, Wis., need 34 putts today and shot 73. He finished at 5-over par, one stroke too high to advance to the weekend.
 
Last year, 2009 PGA Champion Y.E. Yang missed the cut.
