That's a par-par finish for Capan and a nice little 58 ... the field is absolutely ripping apart Texas Rangers Golf Club today

A little PSA to all that are going to mention the 57/58 from Frankie Capan … last name is pronounced Sap-in.

One of the sneaky best golf feelings is hitting an absolutely trash tee shot and then figuring out a plan to still make par. Trash tee shot pars are up there with tap-in birdies imo. We all can hit perfect shots here and there, it’s the Spiethian pars that truly rock.

Legit one of the hardest I’ve laughed listening to a podcast in a while. When Brendan Porath says Bob Charles I almost died.

Highly recommend this one:

Scottie vs Nelly makes a ton of sense as a golf competition … lean into the GOLF part of it and people would watch.

No offense to Russ Cochran, but in a year in which the KFT and Q-School grads have struggled for starts, it's not a good look to have someone in PGA Tour field who has played one (1) Tour event since 2009.

What does the rules official do if all 68 other golfers simultaneously concede to Scottie so they can go home?

Scheffler with a 3-shot lead. If he holds on, his last seven wins will have come against fields that had at least 8 of the 10 in the world ranking. No Talor Gooch, but still pretty good.

It’s conceivable that both Nelly and Scottie match (or exceed?) their LPGA/PGA Tour career outputs this year.

With wins today…

Nelly
Career thru 2023: 8 wins, 1 major
2024: 5 wins, 1 major

Scottie
Career thru 2023: 6 wins, 1 major
2024: 4 wins, 1 major

I asked Justin Ray about the week after the Masters and he said the last to do so was Langer in' 85 ... Rory won the week after his Open win in 2014 so I'd assume that's the last time after a major.
