338: J.T. Poston’s Emotional Win, Ryan Gerard’s Rise & Nelly Korda’s U.S. Open Moment

With 33 holes played already on Sunday at Muirfield Village, it took J.T. Poston two more to emerge victorious, punching his ticket to Shinnecock Hills (and avoiding another 36 holes on Golf’s Longest Day) in the process. Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme recap the week at Memorial, and Poston’s journey back to the winner’s circle.

Smylie was on-site at Jack’s Place and gives his perspective on how Poston found something special with his ball striking and putter, why Ryan Gerard’s putting turnaround is elevating his ceiling, and how brutal Muirfield Village played before the weekend rain softened the golf course.

The guys also discuss Scottie Scheffler’s viral frustration at the 16th hole, Wyndham Clark’s form heading toward the U.S. Open, Golf’s Longest Day, Nelly Korda’s first U.S. Women’s Open win at Riviera, the future of mixed men’s/women’s golf events, and the latest LIV Golf reporting.
