PGA Championship Recap: Splendor and Scandal in Charlotte

Andy and Brendan are flying high after another strong major championship week of golf and daily podcasts. They get right to it with this recap marveling at Scottie Scheffler’s weekend at Quail Hollow, from the all-time Saturday finish that went right into the ugly Sunday start to a win that provokes thoughts of a multi-major summer to come. What’s left for him to solve and are there further questions that need answering? They get into the mental load he can put on his competitors, including Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau on the weekend. They discuss the joy of having Rahm back in the hunt and how it came undone on the back nine. They get into some amusing Bryson quotes about his equipment and needing to find a ball that flies straighter with over 190 mph speeds. Also, has his major play been more brilliant or sloppy lately? They grade out several more near the top of the non-Scottie leaderboard, including Joaquin Niemann’s first ever top 10. Rory’s week is given a review, from the scores to the media freeze out. Also graded is the CT Machine, the Quail Hollow major setup, and the PGA of America as a whole led by Don Rea. Then PJ jumps on late to debrief on a WILD Champions Tour scramble in the dark as well as a possible auction scandal at the PGA.
