  1. Awesome major. I was getting hyped at the final day, and Scheffler's comeback. I was thinking that he was gonna push it to a 3-way playoff at the end (he did everything in his power to do that, and big ups to him). Also awesome idea by the PGA for putting 1 & 2 together for the final day. Fitz was faltering out, and Zalatoris looked to be pushing it to extra golf, but he found a way to pull it off (and Zalatoris missed that putt by a HAIR).

  2. Literally everyone is doing big business with Saudi. From the U.S. government to major sponsors to the PGA itself. So where did this insane over the top hatred of Saudi Arabia comes from? And why are you now so preoccupied with this issue? Answer: You have been fed a narrative, and you have swallowed the thing hook, line, and sinker? The PGA is attempting to monopolize top flight golf. They are acting like a tyranny with the help of jackboot Rory.

  3. 1:20:30 If you are in a bunker, you can take an unplayable within the bunker for a 1 stroke penalty. You also have the option, which you describe, to remove the ball from the bunker, but it's a 2 stroke penalty. So in your scenario, if you hit your second shot into the road hole bunker, you would be hitting 5 from outside of the bunker.

  4. US companies export about 50 billion in goods annually to Saudi Arabia not to mention US arm sales of 350 billion under Trump. Please explain why golfers shouldn't take Saudi money?

  5. "one of the more dramatic major finishes" … Already forgot about the PGA when the guy who had been leading for days double bogeyed 18 to set up a playoff?

  6. Don’t you think it’s the responsibility of the consumer to determine who they are going to give their money to? Best case scenario, if you wanted to stick it to the saudi backer, is let them pay the players a ton of money and then don’t ever watch it or feed any money into it. Make their investment be in vain. It’s not like the players are giving money to the Saudi’s, they’re taking money. The patrons are the ones who would be supporting

  7. Is this pod producer seriously trying to film this as a mockumentary? The cringe zooms and wild cam reactions? Horrid producing, but what do you expect from a 4 foot manhattanite male

  8. I remember when we had big tournaments in Britain (PGA Championship, World Match Play, British Masters etc), and the World Golf Championship in Jamaica. And the USPGA slowly and steadily destroyed all of the competition with big money. Now it's happening again with LIV. The USPGA monopolization of golf resulted in a 72 hole/4 round stranglehold with little chance of innovation. But thanks to LIV, we can now expect huge change.

  9. Trent, once you visit St Andrews head to Jannettas Gelateria near the Cathedral on South St. That should satisfy your sweet tooth. Just make sure the Peter Millar's have an elasticated waistband

  10. Sum's up US sports coverage right there. One of the greatest shots in US OPEN history and you're reading out a shitty commercial over the top of it…

  11. Nice format but lay off the cell phones. The second that tournament ended everybody was just text messaging furiously

  12. Frankie with a terrible botch of an iconic moment… “I think I got my swagger back”

  13. Not Fitz doing exactly what he shamed Bryson for and getting the exact same outcome Bryson got from it

  14. You guys are so hypocritical and so are all of the tour players who are endorsed or sponsored by companies that do business with Saudi Arabia example is Jordan spieth and att and let’s not forget that a lot of the pga tour title sponsors for marque events do business in Saudi Arabia. Example the att pebble beach pro am or the att Byron Nelson or the John Deere classic.
