Ranking the seven golf majors of 2020-21 from Phil Mickelson's historic win to Collin Morikawa's double

There's a clear No. 1 and No. 7 on the list, but the rest of the major tournaments are difficult to sort through
The golf major season is over. Not just the 2021 season, but the entire seven-majors-in-11-months extravaganza has ended with Collin Morikawa's victory at the 149th Open Championship. It was a bookend to the way it started last August when Morikawa took the 2020 PGA Championship at TPC Harding Park. He made an entire career in just 11 months. After the PGA Tour returned amid the COVID-19 pandemic last summer, and as the majors started announcing when their championships would be held, it became clear that the next year of major championship golf would be as compact and wild as it has ever been. That mostly played out among the seven majors as we got six world-class champions and innumerable memorable moments. Since we're at the very end of this bananas run, I thought it would be fun to look back and rank the seven majors we've had in the last 11 months by how good and memorable they were. It's hard to believe that this time a year ago we were sitting here discussing everything that could take place. Now it's all over. Every shot has been hit. There are no major championships for nine more months. As sad as that it is, we still have the previous seven to dissect, overreact to and discuss until then. Let's get started.More Related News
