   Taming the Untamed: US Open Challenges and Bold Predictions

   This week, Erik and Craig dive into the upcoming US Open at Pinehurst, marking the 124th edition of this prestigious tournament. Pinehurst is known for its stunning yet brutally challenging greens that never seem to stop moving. Erik, admittedly exhausted from his tireless efforts to launch The Golf Armory, shares his awe and slight dread at the difficulty these greens present, likening them to some of the hardest golf in the world. Tune in as the duo make their predictions for the tournament, encouraging listeners to hear their proven picks. Erik makes one of his boldest calls yet, picking Lynn Grant to win the Mixed Scandinavian Open tournament. There ain’t no way any other podcaster chose Lynn Grant to win, but she did, proving Erik’s instincts right. Meanwhile, Soderbergh should have won but ultimately had no chance. In the LPGA, Linnea Storm shot an incredible 60, narrowly missing a shot at 59. The episode wraps up with updates from Craig and Erik, including exciting news about The Golf Armory. The website is launching this week at http://thegolfarmory.com. Check it out, grab a gift card or shirt, and support the venture just like Craig does. Join us for insights, laughs, and some friendly competition in this week’s episode of Across the Pond Golf. https://linktr.ee/atpgolf (https://linktr.ee/atpgolf)

   RBC Canadian Open Drama, Yuka Saso’s Triumph, and the Future of Women’s Golf

   This week on Across The Pond Golf, we dive into an action-packed lineup of events and exciting updates in the world of golf. First, we celebrate Big Bob (Robert MacIntyre) as he clinches victory at the RBC Canadian Open in true Scottish fashion. We talk about the emotional family moment as his grass-cuttin’ father can finally put down the petrol can after a long-awaited PGA win. Bob, we’ll see you at the U.S. Open! Next, we shine a spotlight on Yuka Saso, who etched her name into another major LPGA event. Despite the dark horse predictions, including a surprising 10 from Nelly Korda, Yuka’s performance left us all in awe. Charley Hull’s recent stogie incident draws attention for all the wrong reasons. We discuss why there’s so much more to her game and why she’s the role model the next generation needs. Erik shares his thoughts on the rise of women’s golf and how it could mirror the WNBA’s success, citing the Caitlin Clark effect. We also look ahead to Jack Nicklaus’s Memorial Tournament, which promises to be a thrilling shootout. Craig and Erik share their takes on this electrifying event, where everyone and their mom will be watching. Who’s your pick? Erik reveals the long-awaited name of his new business venture, and we introduce the host tattoo chart challenge. Plus, don’t miss our collaboration with Dirty Birdie, an exciting new golf brand on the rise.
