Why? Some years maybe, if it is on a great course. Bethpage, Whistling Straits. But Bellerive? Trump Bedminster? Quail Hollow? Both have great fields, Sawgrass is a great course with compelling finishing holes. Why would you say the PGA is always a better watch?Kinda feels like a slap in the face to all those who won it if you just replace it. The pga doesn’t get the clout the others due, likely because it gets lost in the mix as far as excitement. It doesn’t drum up any major buzz like the Masters, people aren’t talking about how the PGA is gonna screw it up ala the USGA, and the Open.. it’s just the Open. Set up the course, let’s just see who wins. PGA seems to always be hard, but fair. A test, but not an unfair one.
That being said, I’d watch the pga over the players all day.
And if it were replaced, it wouldn't be retroactive. You wouldn't recalculate career majors. If it was considered a major at the time then it counts as a major.
