There’s plenty still to unpack from one of the most thrilling major championships in history at the U.S. Open.
In this edition of the Golf Channel Podcast with Rex & Lav, the guys discuss the fallout from Pinehurst – Rory McIlroy’s decision to skip his media responsibilities following his final-hour collapse, as well as Bryson DeChambeau making the rounds with the U.S. Open trophy in tow.
Plus, Rex is at the Travelers Championship, anticipating a possible news break with the PGA Tour/PIF deal, but instead wound up covering a few small items. Sigh.
