(Ep 141) The 152nd Open Championship (with Joe Idone)

After a sweet homecoming win at The Renaissance Club for Robert MacIntyre in dramatic fashion draining a 22ft birdie put on the 72nd to win his home Open and jump to a career high of 16th in the OWGR! It was a truly monumental day for Scotland!   We are at the final Major Championship of the year on the men's side for the most prestigious Championship in all of Golf for the right to be called 'The Champion Golfer of The Year' its the 152nd edition of The Open Championship at Royal Troon as we return to the Ayrshire Links for the first time in 8 years after the historic dual of 2016 between Henrik Stenson & Phil Mickelson who completed lapped the field that week as the Swede became a Major Champion for the first time! This pristine links has added an extra 190+ yards since 2016 and will play as 7,350 yards Par 71. You will need to have everything working as you navigate this testing golf course!  I was joined by Joe Idone (@TourPicks) on X as we breakdown Royal Troon and who the contenders this week might be after Brian Harman's rout of Royal Liverpool last July! We have a strong hand of selections this week. Scottie Scheffler returns having missed Scottish Open last week while we all have out say on Rory, Xander, Bryson, Morikawa & Ludvig! Joe is one of the most respected names in the Golf Content Industry and done a really good job here of providing good information! Could we see an 11th different name in a row on the Claret Jug in what has definitely been the most unpredictable Major of the 4! Listen & Download on Podbean, Spotify & Apple Podcast!   Thanks
