Rory McIlroy's eventful week + Bob May on the 2000 PGA Championship

After Rory McIlroy's second win in three weeks at the Wells Fargo Championship, Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme discuss the showdown setting up between Rory and Scottie Scheffler at Valhalla - the site of Rory's last major win. Smylie and Charlie also have a "clutch gene" discussion as it relates to Xander Schauffele after another near miss at a marquee event while playing in the final group. Smylie is then joined by Bob May, runner-up to Tiger Woods in the 2000 PGA Championship at Valhalla, to relive that thrilling playoff finish (and Tiger's iconic walk-in putt). Finally, SK and CH discuss where Rory's week began - with the news that he would not be rejoining the policy board as reported, but instead would be assuming a role on the transaction subcommittee.

What a great perspective Bob shared with on approaching that final round. Great interview!

Smylie is the podcast GOAT.

He’s really not

I reckon Xander could try meditation... honestly, those wedge crashes coming home. A 10 handicap like me would have been rapt with them, but oh boy, he didn't need em! Hopefully he's not too depressed about this. Credit to Rory - what a round!! 🎉⛳️ Very interesting discussion guys - as usual 😊

[@alanfinn77]

Very interesting about the wedges I was shocked that Xander allowed Rory to steam ahead like that I really expected it to go down to the last

Great interview Smylie! Tiger has to many health issues to ever win a Major again. Along with that the talent now is so incredible, and just keeps getting better.

[@alanfinn77]

Totally agree the depth of talent in world golf now is just too strong to think Tiger could win again with his injury history

[@ethanbielby2775]

I think pga tour should add a team aspect and make the fedex cup playoffs team based. Maybe have 4 members on a team like liv and combine the players fedex cup points and top 30 or so teams make the playoffs.

Bob May! What a legendary battle w/ Tiger he had.

[@lucaszamorano823]

Did they give their picks already??

[@OG_Jack]

LIV breaks golf. PGA Tour has to fix it. Players need more money. TV ratings are down. What a freaking mess. I love golf. No sure I love this mess! The Smylie Show rules, others drool!
