The week leading into tournament always starts with the big names coming into the press center. This week at Whistling Straits was no exception, when we last saw a major on american soil it was the U.S. Open at Chambers Bay.

When it all came down to the back nine on Sunday, the shootout turned into one between a few players, but at the end it was Dustin Johnson and winner Jordan Spieth.

But it’s a new day and new championship, both players were close at St. Andrews but did not win, and here in Kohler or shall I say Haven Wisconsin the home of the Straits Course, fans wonder if the rematch is on. The other topic still on everyone’s mind, was does Dustin Johnson still think about his bunker miscue on Sunday of the PGA back in 2010.

So today before the packed press room, they both met the media and took on all the questions.
