CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Charlotte’s Quail Hollow Club has been chosen as the site of the 2017 PGA Championship, PGA officials announced Tuesday.Quail Hollow will be the third venue in North Carolina to host the event, joining Pinehurst Resort & Country Club, which held the event in 1936, and Tanglewood Golf Club of Winston-Salem, which hosted in 1974.“It is with great pleasure that we bring the PGA Championship back to North Carolina, and to make our first visit to Quail Hollow Club, a venue and a community that has demonstrated its skill in hosting premier golf,” said PGA of America President Jim Remy.Gov. Beverly Perdue and Charlotte Mayor Anthony Foxx were at the club for the announcement on Tuesday morning and said the event is great news for the state and the city.The championship is expected to bring in about 50,000 people, and Perdue said the state is hoping it will net between $150 million and $200 million.

    • Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts? 
    • nope     This is why we come back every year.  Hope springs eternal
    • It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
