With the Presidents Cup approaching and more changes coming to the professional golf calendar, we ask a bigger question: in an increasingly individual and fractured game, is team golf actually more important than ever?

#088: Scheffler's Royal Run to the Claret Jug

Wed, 23 Jul 2025 00:30:37 +0000

Scottie Scheffler continued his historic run by winning the 2025 Open Championship at Royal Portrush, cruising to a four-shot victory at 17-under to secure his fourth major title in just over three years — matching Tiger Woods’ early career pace. His final-round 68 cemented a dominant performance, extending his streak to 11 straight top-10s and further solidifying his grip on World No. 1. The win also reshaped the Ryder Cup picture: Rory McIlroy remains the lone automatic qualifier for Europe, but Shane Lowry, Tyrrell Hatton, and Robert MacIntyre are closing in, while Sepp Straka’s recent surge adds intrigue. For Team USA, Keegan Bradley sits 10th and could become the first playing captain since 1963, thanks to a new rule allowing on-course advice from vice-captains. Meanwhile, Bryson DeChambeau and Rory McIlroy impressed with late Open charges, and with the Olympics and FedEx Cup playoffs looming, the summer golf calendar is just heating up

#087: Bunker Busters and Rory DropsThe Mic

Fri, 11 Jul 2025 02:06:42 +0000

Welcome back to another explosive edition of the Quiet Please Golf Podcast — and let’s just say, this week’s episode is less a polite tee-off and more a full-blown bunker buster. We pick up right where we left off from last week’s cliffhanger, and the fireworks start immediately.

First up: Paul Azinger. The man didn’t just dip a toe into controversy — he dove headfirst. Azinger’s comments about online golf instruction had the golf world clutching pearls and typing fast. Is swing coaching via social media helping or harming the modern game? Zinger didn’t mince words, and neither did we.

Then came the Rory McIlroy bombshell — and no, not his 330-yard drives. We’re talking about his searing remarks regarding the PGA’s direction and its ties to the soon-to-be HQ in Frisco. Whether you agree or not, Rory laid it all out with vintage Irish fire, and the implications for the sport’s power structure are massive.

And while the men were tossing verbal grenades, Lottie Woad was out there dropping real ones — fairway missiles and clinical putts — en route to victory at the Women’s Irish Open. The amateur phenom didn't just win; she conquered a loaded field with poise that belied her years. A future superstar? We say yes.

Over at the John Deere Classic, the theater was electric — a finish packed with drama, grit, and putts that felt like destiny. We break down the defining moments and what they mean for the FedEx Cup race.

And that’s all before we even touch on Royal Portrush — because trust us, what’s brewing in Northern Ireland deserves its own segment. Grab your headphones and maybe a helmet — the Quiet Please Golf Podcast is teeing off loud this week.

On this week’s episode of the Quiet Please Golf Podcast, the panel kicks things off with a deep dive into Aldrich Potgieter’s impressive win at the Detroit Golf Club, where the 20-year-old South African showcased poise and precision well beyond his years to claim his maiden PGA Tour victory. We then shift focus to the Detroit Golf Club’s ambitious $16 million renovation plan, exploring what’s in store for the historic venue and how it may reshape future tournaments there. From course changes to mental games, Rory McIlroy’s recent struggles raise questions about his headspace—has the pressure gotten to him, or is this just a blip? The crew also weighs in on Paul Azinger’s spicy take that golf instruction has gotten “out of control”—is he onto something, or just yelling at clouds? Finally, we take a look ahead to the Open Championship, highlight a few dark horse picks, and ask the important question: who doesn’t want to root for Captain America himself, Patrick Reed? (Okay, okay—don’t all answer at once…)

#084: Spaun Hits a Bomb, Rory Hits a Tee Marker, & Someone Hits the Lockers

Wed, 18 Jun 2025 00:35:12 +0000

Oakmont was every bit the punishing test we expected, and this year’s U.S. Open lived up to its brutal reputation. Fast greens, deep rough, steady rain, and those infamous church pew bunkers made survival the name of the game. In the end, it was JJ Spaun who rose above the chaos, capturing the title with the only score under par for the week and a short game that held firm under immense pressure. His clutch tee shot on 17 will be remembered—but the 62-foot bomb he dropped on 18 was pure electricity. We break down the big names that faltered throughout the week, reminding us once again that Oakmont doesn’t play favorites. It was a classic U.S. Open: unforgiving, dramatic, and a true test of championship golf. Oakmont never disappoints.
