Ann broadcasts from the 125th U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club in Pa. Ann talks with Paul Alexander, Host/Anchor, KDKA Radio and 93.7 The Fan, about the difficulty of Oakmont, what makes it so special, and stories about the beloved Arnold Palmer. Ann visits with Hall of Famer, Ernie Els, who won his first Major title at the 1994 U.S. Open at Oakmont, and shares his memories of that win and the brutal test the course presents, in addition to his opinions on a variety of issues in golf.

Will Doctor gives you the sharpest card for the U.S. Open at Oakmont. -Going over top 7 names on odds board -1 matchup -2 top nationality tickets -3 futures outrights (+350, 14/1, 18/1) -2 outrights added (100/1 & 150/1) -Sleeper, 2 lineups, scoring -Best bet For more on the world of golf, follow Doc on X @drmedia59 In the "U.S. Open at Oakmont Picks and Predictions" podcast, Will Doctor provides a comprehensive betting preview of the upcoming U.S. Open at Oakmont. Beginning at 0:16, Doctor sets the tone with energetic anticipation, positioning Oakmont as a legendary course hosting the U.S. Open for a record tenth time. From 0:43, he sharply critiques the previous RBC Canadian Open, describing the Osprey Valley course as “a disgrace” and detailing a 5.8-unit loss that week, with Sam Burns' top-20 finish as the lone success. Despite the setbacks, he praises Ryan Fox's recent success, highlighting the Kiwi's two playoff victories in four starts and his historic Canadian Open win, the first by a New Zealander since 1968. Doctor then shifts focus to Oakmont's rich history. He recounts notable U.S. Open wins, including Tommy Armour (1927), Sam Parks Jr. (1935), and Ben Hogan's record-setting 1953 season. He emphasizes Jack Nicklaus' 1962 victory over Arnold Palmer at age 22, which kickstarted Nicklaus' legendary career. Johnny Miller's final-round 63 in 1973 is labeled the greatest round in U.S. Open history, despite not being the lowest score ever. Further champions like Larry Nelson (1983), Ernie Els (1994), Angel Cabrera (2007), and Dustin Johnson (2016) round out Oakmont's storied hosting record. At 12:00, Doctor begins his betting picks. He endorses Scottie Scheffler (+350) as outright number one, citing dominant recent wins and past experience at Oakmont, where he missed the cut by one in 2016. Bryson DeChambeau, with a futures ticket from December at 14-1, is lauded for his driving power and improved approach play, though his recent accuracy issues raise concern. DeChambeau claims Oakmont is “the toughest test in the world right now,” and Doctor remains confident in his form. Rory McIlroy is passed over due to a poor performance at the Canadian Open, including erratic driving and uninspired play. Doctor quotes Rory discussing his struggle for motivation and interest in hobbies like tennis. John Rahm, however, is preferred in a head-to-head matchup (-133), praised for his polished game despite recent putting inconsistency. Doctor argues Rahm is better equipped than Rory to handle Oakmont's demands. Xander Schauffele and Collin Morikawa are also faded. Xander's driving accuracy is flagged as a season-long weakness, and Morikawa is critiqued for losing strokes around the green in five of his last six starts, rendering him unfit for a major requiring elite scrambling. Ludwig Åberg is highlighted as a top Nordic pick at +180, benefiting from strong recent form and inconsistent competition, with Joachim Lagerlund identified as his main threat. Doctor names Hideki Matsuyama as top Japanese player at even money, emphasizing his elite U.S. Open history and the weak form of his countrymen. Outright picks include Scheffler (+350), DeChambeau (14-1), Brooks Koepka (18-1, faded due to poor form), Keegan Bradley (100-1, riding strong recent finishes), and Cam Young (150-1), who's gained strokes off the tee and on the greens recently. Young's playoff qualification over top names and his form earn him sleeper status. Two fantasy lineups are provided. A DraftKings build includes Rahm, Åberg, Spieth, Bradley, Young, and Leishman. The PGA Tour lineup features Scheffler (captain), Bradley, DeChambeau, and Young, with Åberg and Leishman on the bench. Doctor predicts a winning score of -3, depending on weekend rain, and offers Cam Young to finish top 28 at +320 as his best bet. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ann talks with Hall of Famer Ernie Els, about his first Major victory, the 1994 U.S. Open title at Oakmont Country Club; his thoughts on the USGA not going to Monday for an 18 hole play-off, which was changed years ago; the dominance of Scottie Scheffler on the PGA Tour; and how Ernie, now 55, stays sharp on the PGA Tour Champions.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Professor Rajen Naidoo, head of Occupational and Environmental Health at UKZN, about a shocking new report from Greenpeace Africa and CREA revealing that air pollution killed 42,000 South Africans in 2023 including over 1,300 children. The economic cost? R960 billion, over 14% of the country’s GDP. Most of the pollution comes from coal-fired power stations in Mpumalanga and Gauteng, yet the government continues to let major polluters off the hook. It’s a crisis of lungs, livelihoods, and leadership. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

We are wishing a happy June 6th to you and yours, wherever you may be! Brendan barely has a voice but is still ready to celebrate the second anniversary of the Framework Agreement with Andy on this fine Friday episode. The two open with a lengthy discussion about the future of LIV Golf and the current status of this 731 day-old agreement between the PIF and PGA Tour. They debate whether the two sides ever actually come together and if not, what the best path forward is for everyone involved. From there, this is a bit of an Oakmont preview episode ahead of the 125th U.S. Open next week. Andy has Brendan and PJ attempt to place the top of the field into tiers, with some commentary on players such as Ludvig Åberg, Joaquin Niemann, and Justin Rose. Andy also goes down the list a bit to find a deep sleeper who has the short game to win a U.S. Open at a course like Oakmont. Brendan turns back the clock for a Flashback Friday on the 2016 U.S. Open and the rules controversy that loomed over Dustin Johnson's final round. He shares some tweets from Rory, Spieth, and even Rickie who were watching live and were not pleased with the USGA's handling of the situation. To close things out, Joseph LaMagna stops by bring Ernie Els's 1994 U.S. Open win into question after discovering some sketchy drops during the final round.

La photo est en couverture des journaux en Afrique du Sud : on y voit le président américain Donald Trump et son homologue sud-africain, Cyril Ramaphosa, assis sur les fauteuils jaunes du Bureau ovale de la Maison-Blanche, devant les journalistes et les caméras. Et à voir leurs mouvements de mains, la discussion est animée…Le quotidien sud-africain Cape Times relate la scène : « Ramaphosa est arrivé en disant qu'il voulait discuter du commerce et des minerais rares. La réunion a débuté de manière cordiale. Trump et lui ont commencé à discuter golf. D'ailleurs, deux champions de golf sud-africains Ernie Els et Retief Goosen étaient présents dans la délégation de Ramaphosa. Mais la réunion a rapidement tourné au vinaigre, pointe Cape Times. Trump a montré une vidéo et des documents, comme prétendues preuves de ses affirmations infondées selon lesquelles les Sud-Africains blancs seraient persécutés et leurs terres confisquées ».Des allégations déjà formulées par le président américain ces derniers mois et démenties par l'Afrique du Sud. Cyril Ramaphosa s'est défendu, a démenti une nouvelle fois…Mais, constate le Mail & Guardian, autre média sud-africain, « les discussions commerciales ont été reléguées au second plan ».Et Cape Times de parler de véritable « embuscade tendue par Trump, comme celle dont avait été victime le président ukrainien Volodymyr Zelensky, en février dernier ».Trop timoré ?The Star, autre quotidien sud-africain s'en prend à… Cyril Ramaphosa. « L'occasion ratée de Ramaphosa de repositionner l'Afrique du Sud comme centre d'affaires stratégique de l'Afrique », titre le journal. The Star qui dénonce « l'inertie diplomatique » du président sud-africain : « Ramaphosa a manqué une occasion en or : celle de rétablir les faits avec fermeté et audace. Il ne s'agissait pas seulement de dire la vérité sur les statistiques de la criminalité rurale ou la réforme agraire. Il s'agissait de dire au monde ce qu'est l'Afrique du Sud aujourd'hui – et, plus important encore, ce qu'elle aspire à être. L'Afrique du Sud ne s'effondre pas sous les violences raciales, s'exclame The Star.

In Part 1 of this week's episode of Next on the Tee, I kick things off with a return visit from NHL legend and a fantastic golfer Dan Quinn. Dan played 14 seasons in the NHL, including memorable years alongside Mario Lemieux with the Pittsburgh Penguins. Off the ice, Dan has logged countless rounds at Oakmont and spent several years caddying on the PGA Tour for the likes of Ernie Els, John Daly, Yost Luiten—and a then up-and-coming Cam Smith. We revisit his experiences playing Oakmont, and I get his insights on this year's US Open. We hear about the rounds he played there with Mario Lemieux and Next on the Tee favorite Bob Ford. You'll hear about his times on the bag for Ernie Els at the 2013 US Open and the 2015 US Open for a rookie named Cam Smith. We finish up discussing what the Penguins need to do in order to get back being a playoff caliber team. Then I'm joined by longtime friend and fellow broadcaster Jeff Tracy, host of Grilling at the Green and Barbecue Nation shows on AM 860 in Portland. Jeff's a true Renaissance man—he's not only a seasoned radio host and golf analyst, he's also a competitive barbecue master and a former horse show judge. We talk golf, brisket, and Jeff's thoughts on the PGA Championship and the upcoming U.S. Open. You won't want to miss the insights and laughs with two guys who bring serious flavor—both on the course and off.

Ray White speaks to David Smith, The Guardian’s Washington DC Bureau Chief, about President Cyril Ramaphosa’s headline-grabbing meeting with Donald Trump at the White House, a moment many are calling a diplomatic coup after months of tension, aid threats, and misinformation over land reform. With warm handshakes masking high-stakes negotiations, Ramaphosa’s visit is seen as a strategic masterstroke, possibly fueled by influential backchannels and business interests from figures like Johann Rupert and Ernie Els. But beyond the symbolic breakthrough, David unpacks whether this charm offensive can translate into tangible wins for South Africa on trade, tech, and international credibility. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

Andy is off in Scotland and calls in after a late night at the pub to join Brendan for this Monday morning recording. After some unplanned promo for Fried Egg Golf Club, this episode starts with a recognition of the world's best player, Joaquin Niemann, following his third win of the year on LIV. The two compare the three wins of Niemann and Rory McIlroy and wonder who the best player of 2025 truly is. From there, the conversation shifts to an extended Champs Tour Minute, as a power outage at the Zurich Classic allowed everyone to get some bonus coverage from Zinger and Papa on Golf Channel. PJ is overjoyed that the greater viewing public now sees his point about Zinger being kept in a studio as opposed to on the road watching Jerry Kelly outlast Ernie Els at TPC Sugarloaf. Andy and Brendan then move to the Chevron, won by Mao Saigo in a five-way playoff, the largest in LPGA history. Brendan points out the egregious backboarding opportunity available on the 18th hole and Andy shares some local reporting from The Woodlands about the lack of advertising for the event. On the PGA Tour, social media sensation Ben Griffin and NFL Draft pundit Andrew Novak teamed up for their first PGA Tour win(s) at the Zurich Classic, beating the Hojgaard twins following some interesting drops on the 72nd hole. This episode quickly runs through some news to wrap things up, including the latest from Michael Block as he looks to qualify for Quail Hollow.

Darren spent his Tuesday afternoon (17 December 2024) at Zimbali Lakes playing golf with Ernie Els, and it was nothing short of exceptional. Aside from being surrounded by the legend himself, Darren shocked himself and everyone else with his golfing skills. He made a near impossible shot that landed closest to the flag, essentially winning him the competition. Even Ernie Els was surprised Webpage

Andy is feeling laborious on this Wednesday episode, leading to a wide-ranging discussion about upcoming golf tournaments, a sesame chicken lunch special, and the lack of national attention on the Chicago Bears. Brendan relays some feedback from Scottish listeners about last episode's mispronunciations of "Hamish" before promoting the new Design Disasters account on Instagram (@design__disasters) featuring some incredible golf holes. From there, attention turns to the World Wide Technology Championship. First, Andy and Brendan try to figure out what, exactly, World Wide Technology does, but can't quite find a firm answer. Billy Andrade's sponsor exemption into this event comes up again, and Brendan reveals that his last PGA Tour start was over ten years ago. Cutthroat Corner returns for this week as well, but not for the player you might think! There's some Bubble Boy talk as the FedEx Fall hits the final stretch, leading to a discussion about a PGA Tour win leading to a two-year exemption. It's the first week of DP World Tour Playoffs, as Min Woo Lee and Rory McIlroy are teeing it up at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship. Min Woo's appearance in Abu Dhabi leads to a brief TGL segment about the latest "Temple" hole unveiling.

Four golfers from Newfoundland's west coast are getting into the swing of things - at the Ernie Els autism international golf tournament. They're taking part on a course in this province, but their scores are compared with those of competitors from other countries. The CBC's Amy Feehan went to the Humber Valley Resort golf course. She spoke with golfer Joseph Tobin and his mother, Jessica Wyatt, as well as golfer Jackson Pink and coach Wayne Allen.

First up, we dive into Sabrina Carpenter's fiery interview on “Hot Ones.” Imagine trying to keep your cool while Sean Evans mercilessly serves you wings hotter than the sun. Sabrina, bless her soul, talked about her hit song “Espresso” while desperately trying not to combust. The hook “That's that me espresso” became an instant meme legend for its... let's say, unique syntax. She defended her lyrical choice by basically saying, “If you don't get the joke, the joke's on you.” Honestly, Sabrina, if you can deliver punchlines while your taste buds are having a meltdown, you're a hero in my book. Plus, she almost sued Sean for the pain – now that's spicy! Next, let's talk about our President Joe Biden's latest verbal gymnastics routine. It's like he's auditioning for a political version of “Who's Line Is It Anyway?” At the NATO summit, he accidentally called Ukrainian President Zelenskiy, “President Putin.” Talk about a plot twist! As if that wasn't enough, he then mixed up Kamala Harris with Donald Trump. “I wouldn't have picked Vice President Trump if she wasn't qualified to be president.” Well, Joe, that's one heck of a hypothetical reality show I don't want to see. And for the grand finale, he couldn't quite get “chiefs of staff” right, calling them “commander in chief.” Someone get this man a teleprompter and a nap, stat! Speaking of political theater, Donald Trump threw down the gauntlet for a golf match against Biden. Trump is convinced this will be the most-watched sporting event ever. Honestly, he might be right. I mean, who doesn't want to see two septuagenarians duke it out on the green? Trump sweetened the deal by promising a $1 million check to charity if Biden wins. Now that's some high-stakes mini-golf drama! Ernie Els even confirmed Trump's hole-in-one from 2022. Yes, folks, miracles do happen – especially when Trump's PR team is around. Brian Jack from Georgia also chimed in, praising Trump's golf game and claiming he shot a 70. I'd believe it if we were playing by Trump's rules, which I'm guessing involve a lot of mulligans and “alternative facts.” This week's episode is a rollercoaster of spice, slips, and swings. From Sabrina Carpenter's sizzling serenade to Biden's bloopers and Trump's golfing gauntlet, we've covered all the bases. Tune in to hear our takes, laughs, and possibly some tears (mostly from Sabrina's hot sauce ordeal). That's it for this week's episode of “What Are We Doing.” Stay tuned, stay spicy, and remember – if your espresso sounds weird, just say it's a punchline. Catch you next week! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/what-are-we-doing-pod/support

Matthew Rudy is an author and the ghost-writer of over 25 golf instruction, sports and business books.  He is also a Senior Writer for Golf Digest Magazine.  Matthew joins #OntheMark to discuss and elaborate on an article he wrote, for Golf Digest, dispelling 5 Golf Myths that could be ruining your golf. Those myths include: Throwing Grass in the Air to Test the Wind, Breaking Putts Toward Landmarks, Keeping Your Head Down, How Backspin is really Created, Tee it High and Let it Fly, and Plumb-bobbing as a green-reading mechanism As an added bonus, Matthew also talks about a book of swing sequences he wrote, and he shares insights on what you can learn from 'outlying' golf-swings like those of Paul Azinger, Raymond Floy and Chi Chi Rodriguez. Throughout his lessons, Matthew shares insights and tips from people he has spent time around, e.g., Instructors and coaches - Kevin Weeks, Mike Jacobs, Stan Utley, Bernie Najar, Dave Stockton, Hank Haney, and players - Tiger Woods, Ernie Els, Scottie Scheffler, and Justin Thomas.

It's Victory Monday! For Brendan, at least. Andy has fewer nice things to say about his football teams and is ready to maybe check out on the Bears season. Then they move to tennis, which had its great final completely overshadowed by the opening Sunday in the NFL and maybe should take a page out of the FedEx Cup. An ad read for a new sponsor leads to some Irish Open chatter on the weather, Rory's four balls in the water, and the Candyman's ascent. There's a segment on the USA's big scouting trip to Rome over the weekend, where 9 of the 12 team members made it. Does it matter much for the actual Cup? Are people going to overreact to the ones who did not make the trip? The LPGA event leads to a side chat on Lexi's awful year and upcoming Solheim Cup. The Champions Tour chat is more of an occasion to react to some interesting Ernie Els comments on technology leading to swing speeds that are not sustainable if you want to stay healthy. They close with a random flashback to the 2000 NFL Draft.

Chris Childers (Full Ride on SiriusXM) joins to talk about player safety in the MLB after fans approached Ronald Acuna and a shooting at a White Sox game, the NCAA football, how a 2 conference system could work, fair recruiting solutions, Idaho school superintendent Brandon Durst using a student discount for NFL Sunday Ticket, football coach Rush Propst throws his headset at his own son during a scuffle, Noah Lyles wins gold in the 100 and 200 then discusses world titles, and Liam Neeson (Kenny Stevenson) wants to star in an Ernie Els biopic, and so much more!

David Leadbetter is one of the foremost golf instructors of all time.  Perennially one of Golf Digest Magazine's Top Instructors, he has taught multiple Major Champions including Nick Faldo, Nick Price and Ernie Els. Leadbetter has also influenced and mentored a number of successful golf instructors. He joins #OntheMark to share his insights on the golf swing and golf swing technique.  He also introduces his latest Swing Training Aid, The "Straight Away" and elaborates on how it can help you iron out the start of your golf swing - an area Leadbetter believes is highly influential and important to ball-striking success. David talks about how to start the swing consistently well.  He shares his 8 ways that golfers tend to incorrectly start the swing.  He talks about the areas of the body that are engaged and recruited in the 'move-away,' and he also highlights various feels you are likely to get with an athletic and appropriate start to the swing. As an add-on, Leadbetter shares some lessons from 3 of his most prominent students - Nick Faldo, Nick Price and Ernie Els.  He talks about 'Golf Swing DNA' and understanding your 'Swing Fingerprint,' and tendencies and how golf instincts, for teachers and players, are important to situational success. This podcast is also available on YouTube at youtube.com/@markimmelman. Log on and subscribe to watch Leadbetter discuss and demonstrate the golf swing.

Andy and Brendan are fresh and chipper after watching 13ish hours of golf in the first round of the Open. They begin with some amusements from the day, including their own routines to wake up and dive right into what quickly became an abominable broadcast in the early morning hours. They react to how Royal Liverpool played in the first round, with particular admiration for the internal out-of-bounds and some skepticism for the new 17th hole. They reveal the “actual” leaderboard with some of the names that must be taken seriously, and those who do not have to be. They discuss Brooks, Scottie, and Rory getting into the house relatively unharmed, though Scheffler's putting is cause again for concern. There's some sympathy for JT's finish, but a realistic assessment on whether he should be brought to Rome. Zinger and Faldo are chuckled over for a few minutes before they close with some news on Ernie Els just going off on Jay Monahan and the merger deal to Bob Harig.
