Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme are back from a long week at the PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club, where Aaron Rai captured his first major championship in one of the more unpredictable PGA Championships in recent memory. Smylie and Charlie break down why Rai’s precision and consistency were such a perfect fit for the setup, what made Aronimink play so uniquely, and which players left Philadelphia with momentum heading into the summer stretch.

The guys also discuss Jon Rahm, Justin Thomas, Cam Smith, Ludvig Åberg and more, before diving into the latest reporting surrounding LIV Golf’s financial future, potential restructuring, and what it could mean for players and professional golf moving forward. Plus: behind-the-scenes stories from PGA week, Smylie’s “Live From” shot recreations, cheesesteak rankings, summer golf apparel debates, and plenty more.
