SANTA ANA PUEBLO, N.M. (AP) — Braden Shattuck injured his back so badly in a car accident four years ago he wasn’t sure he could play golf again. Now the Pennsylvania club professional is headed to the PGA Championship in two weeks. Shattuck made a 12-foot par putt on the final hole for a 70 and a one-shot victory in the PGA Professional Championship. He’s now the director of instruction at Rolling Green in Springfield, Pennsylvania. Shattuck is among 20 club pros who earned a spot in the PGA Championship at Oak Hill. The group includes Alex Beach. He made it for the fifth straight time.
