The U.S. Open returns to Shinnecock Hills — Scott's favorite course on Earth — and The Edge is all in. Scott and Andy break down what makes Shinnecock such a brutal, beautiful test (50-yard-wide fairways, whispering fescue, and wind that "never misses a tee time"), then go head-to-head in Majors Poker, each drafting a five-player hand to take on the championship. No spoilers here — you'll have to watch to see who loaded up on pedigree and who bet on the conditions. Along the way: a strokes-gained screen that spit out only four "qualified" players, a Ludvig Åberg snub debate, Andy's rant on the golf-ball rollback, and an all-time roast of Tommy Fleetwood's wardrobe. Then it's the Bars Exam — Scott hands Andy two lines from a classic New York rap track and makes him name the group cold. Does he get it? Press play and find out.

Scott Walker and Andy Walker break down the second men's major of the year, debating the top contenders, course strategy, and drafting their picks for the 2026 PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club in suburban Philadelphia. They discuss why the field has narrowed to three names — and a deep dive into Cam Young's emergence as a bonafide superstar, including his tempo and swing mechanics. They will break down the Donald Ross design renovated by Gil Hanse — why patience, driving accuracy, and a sharp short game will be the keys to victory.

Scott Walker (The Edge) sits down with Oliver Hsiang and Preston Becker (Weekday Golf) in a crossover episode. The site was Rancho de los Caballeros in Wickenburg, Arizona, ahead of a 90-player golf trip. In Part 1 of 2, the group talks right before play began about how to pull off one of the biggest golf trips you can imagine, whether you can actually play good golf on such a huge boondoggle, and whether you can get 90 people together without finding one jerk!
