I spent the past few weeks writing up in-depth descriptions of all 18 holes at Shinnecock Hills. @JosephLaMagna chimed in with some insightful notes on strategy, and @mattrouches and Cameron Hurdus provided great visuals.

On CNBC yesterday, Scott O'Neil couldn't guarantee LIV Golf's final four events will take place in 2026, but he was willing to guarantee "a heck of a return if you come invest in this business."

Completely agree with Geoff that we are in the “steroids era of golf”
It’s a shame on many levels but mostly for the players who I believe are better but we actually don’t know how much better because they have equipment that has diluted so much of the challenge of the game.
Jun 10
After watching the women take on Riviera at the U.S. Women's Open, @GeoffShac reflected on how modern equipment has diminished both shot-making and stylistic variety in the men's game.
You can listen to or watch @AndyTFE's full conversation with Geoff on The Fried Egg Golf Podcast.

I am tapping out after 113 holes 🫡
1 birdie (the literal first hole @BrendanPorath saw — #110)
One Coca-Cola
Game Within a Game: 96! A blowout, somehow!
Thank you to everyone for the support. I had a blast. I will probably not play golf again for a long time now.

Can you play 100 holes of golf in one day subsisting on soda and Skittles?
Support PJ today as he risks his health for a good cause.

As you might have heard on today's SGS, I am in DC for the National Links Trust's 100 Hole Hike tomorrow.
The mere concept of a Knicks championship parade is (hopefully) motivation enough for me to survive, but if you'd like to contribute to the cause: nationallinkstrust.org/the-h…

I watched this two nights ago and really enjoyed Rory’s perspective and thoughts on what make Shinnecock tough
Rory McIlroy on Shinnecock Hills:
"It's an amazing golf course because the playing corridors are wide. The greens are pretty small. They can tuck the pins away in little nooks and crannies and @AndyTFE will love me saying this, but you do have to think about angles."

"Scottie, for the first time, probably... since we saw him at the PGA at Harding Park for the first time in his career... We have a mismatch of his expectations and his current level of play."

Only thing that could make the US Women's Open better is if the winner had to jump into a temporary pool off the 18th.
