Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme are on site in Philadelphia for the 2026 PGA Championship at Aronimink, breaking down the course, the conditions, and the players best suited to contend for the Wanamaker Trophy.

But first! A quick chat about their studio for the day at Cobbs Creek. Check out the exciting project in the works that could turn into a PGA TOUR venue while supporting educational opportunities for children in Philadelphia at cobbscreek.org.

The guys discuss why Aronimink could favor long hitters, how soft conditions and patchy rough may impact scoring, the ongoing debate around tree removal in modern course restorations, and which stars they like most this week — including Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, Bryson DeChambeau, Cam Young, Rickie Fowler, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, Xander Schauffele and more. Plus, they close with a recap of their round at Trout National.

Stay tuned for more from Aronimink GC, all week!
