LOUISVILLE Kentucky (Reuters) - Most golfers are meticulous when it comes to preparing for tournaments but Jason Dufner has had to abandon his usual attention to detail ahead of this week's PGA Championship because of a lingering neck injury.

Dufner has been severely hampered by two bulging disks in his neck since April and will launch his title defence at the year's final major in Thursday's opening round at Valhalla Golf Club after seeing very little of the par-71 course in practice.
