Description

What a week in St. Andrews: From Tiger giving an Old Course goodbye, to boos for Ian Poulter and an awkward Phil exit, there is so much to talk about as it relates to the 150th Open Championship. There are few people better to recap an Open than our John Huggan, a longtime editor who is now our European correspondent and an expert on the Old Course. We get Huggan’s thoughts on Rory’s missed opportunity, Cameron Smith making history and whether the Old Course has been reduced to a pitch and putt … or a hybrid-and-putt.The ‘Be Right’ boys are buzzing, too, after cashing some Cameron Smith tickets (as we hope you did, too, as Stephen Hennessey made him one of his picks on last week’s episode). Listen on for their early leans for the 3M Open.As always, check GolfDigest.com for our full array of gambling content for the PGA Championship, including picks from our anonymous caddie, Pat Mayo of DraftKings/Mayo Media Network; Rick Gehman of RickRunGood.com; Brandon Gdula of numberFire/FanDuel; and Lee Alldrick of FanShareSports.
