• Paul Claxton qualified for his first PGA Championship by finishing third in the PGA Professional Championship in Oregon. Claxton played on both the PGA and Web.com tours and he currently is PGA Director of Golf at Hawk’s Point Golf Club in Vidalia, Ga. The PGA Championship is slated for Aug. 10-13 at Quail Hollow.
"I'm looking forward to the PGA Championship," he said. "That was my goal coming out here, so I'm very pleased that I was able to do that. I've never played in one, so I'm looking forward to it. I've been working in a shop for two years, so I was leaking a little oil coming in. I need to work on my game a little bit before I head to Quail Hollow. It was fun to get in the hunt and feel a little pressure. It lets me know that I have some work to do and that's OK. I enjoy practicing and hopefully I'll get to do some more of it."
