The PGA Championship - the Forgotten Major

It feels like the PGA Championship is golf's least-loved major. Or maybe it just feels that way to me because I forgot to set my ESPN Best Ball lineup like an idiot (after placing 421st for the US Open and being the top 5% for the British - dammit!). The PGA Champ is like the Australian Open of golf. It's the Rodney Dangerfield compared to other majors.

If you had to rank the majors in order of prestige, it would go Masters, US Open, British Open, then finally the PGA. Why is that? Is it like the Belmont Stakes and the triple crown, where it only matters if someone is chasing a golf Grand Slam? Is interest lessened this year because Tiger seemed to be slumping? Am I just bitter because of the Best Ball thing? Let me know.
