Podcast appearances and mentions of Tommy Fleetwood

Peter and Ronan (fresh from Birkdale) are back in studio to review Ryan Fox's Open Championship victory. The New Zealander joined Michael Campbell and Bob Charles in earning a men's major victory with a thoroughly impressive display on the back nine where he reached out and grabbed the Claret Jug with both hands with four birdies in his last six holes and two in his last three.There were also plenty of other storylines and the lads dive in to discuss Bryson DeChambeau, Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry while there are worrying signs for Tommy Fleetwood.

And just like that, The 154th Open is over. New Zealand's Ryan Fox is the ‘Champion Golfer of the Year' - and very deservedly so.   On this week's episode of The bunkered Podcast, Michael and Lewis - fresh from Royal Birkdale - recap all of the action from a memorable Open.   Has there been a more popular winner in recent memory than Ryan Fox? Is Cam Young the best active golfer without a major? Why can't Sam Burns close out 54-hole leads? Did the pressure of being the home favourite affect Tommy Fleetwood?   Plus, the guys go deep on Bryson DeChambeau's rules incident, Rory McIlroy's response to it, and question whether or not Bob MacIntyre needs to change his ways if he ever wants to make the leap from major contender to major champion.   And stick around right until the end of the episode because the guys have an announcement.   Tune-in now!   — SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTERS!   Get all the golf info and opinions you need delivered straight to your inbox.

Alright Par Pals

This is a Proper Victory Monday episode following Ryan Fox's first major championship win! Andy and Brendan went LIVE on YouTube on Sunday afternoon to recap a whirlwind of a final round at Royal Birkdale. Of course, they begin with the 2026 Champion Golfer of the Year, Ryan Fox, who birdied the 18th hole to win in regulation and avoid a playoff with Cameron Young. Kevin Van Valkenburg stops by from the Open Media Center to share some notes from his afternoon following the final group, setting the scene for one of the best major finishes in recent memory. Brendan spent his time on the course with local hero Tommy Fleetwood and World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, latter of whom found himself in a rules situation with the same walking official as Bryson's group on Friday. Brendan was front-and-center for one of the great TIO debates of our time and provides a bevy of information as to what was happening in the moment. He then gets Andy going on his thoughts on Royal Birkdale and the course's recent renovations that prepared it for this Open Championship before Andy continues on with some critiques of NBC's coverage throughout the weekend. There are plenty Storylines Nobody's Talking About to wrap the week, covering all-important Wikipedia Top Tens, Rory's work as a lead negotiator, and what was going down on Twitter during the Sunday broadcast. PJ gets tapped to share his thoughts on a runner-up finish for Cameron Young, whose score of -9 looked like it may hold up for the last 2.5 hours of the tournament. Thank you for following along during another year of daily major podcasts, and we look forward to doing it again in 2027! Mercedes-Benz is proud to be an Official Patron of The Open Championship.

Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme recap the 154th Open Championship at Royal Birkdale, where 39-year-old Ryan Fox closed with an aggressive nine-iron to 11 feet on the 72nd hole and drained the birdie to win his first major, clearing Cam Young by a shot. They break down his decisive back nine and journey to the top: turning pro at 25, not reaching the PGA Tour full-time until age 37.Plus: Cam Young's fateful bunker gamble on 18 and the way his narrative has shifted rhe past year, heartbreak for Sam Burns with another near-miss at a major, controversy surrounding Scottie Scheffler's 17th-hole TIO ruling, a bigger picture discussion about rules enforcement in the wake of Bryson DeChambeau's two-shot penalty, and whether Royal Birkdale's firm-and-fast setup played as a true links test.Don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, and follow us on socials @thesmylieshow!

We look back on a dramatic finish at Royal Birkdale, where Ryan Fox closed with a strong Sunday round and won on the 72nd hole. We say he stayed composed under pressure, kept executing shots, and handled some very unlucky breaks on the closing holes without letting them affect him.We also discuss how the course played over the week. We say it was firm, dry and much harder in the afternoon, while the morning wave had the best scoring conditions. We note that the changes to the course produced strong championship golf, with several holes forcing players to choose different clubs and strategies.We reflect on the other main contenders, especially Sam Burns, Tommy Fleetwood and Scottie Scheffler. We say Burns started well but made a series of errors that took him out of the lead, Fleetwood had a very strong week but faded late, and Scheffler struck the ball well but lost many strokes on the greens.A large part of the discussion focuses on the Bryson DeChambeau ruling and the difference between that incident and Scottie Scheffler's ruling on 17. We say the rules were applied in different ways, that the evidence and intent were debated, and that the decisions raised questions about consistency and about how golf polices itself.We finish with the wider context of Fox's win, including his New Zealand sporting background, the significance of the result for New Zealand golf, and a few lighter notes on the week's other winners and losers, including the event's attendance, the amateur performances, and the people behind the tournament setup.

Not so fast! Bryson's penalty controversy and more! Lucas Herbert (-8) and Sam Burns (-5) both post 62s, but that wasn't the biggest story of the day. Bryson DeChambeau was assessed a two-stroke penalty after his round, dropping from solo second to T5. And his third-round status is in question. We break it all down and react live. Plus, we discuss Cameron Young (-6), Scottie Scheffler (-4), Tommy Fleetwood (-4), and Jon Rahm (-4). Down the Leaderboard, news and notes, and much more. Presented by Titleist.

Charlie Hulme and Smylie Kaufman break down a wild Friday at The Open Championship, headlined by Bryson DeChambeau's two-shot penalty for improving his lie in the fescue on the par-4 5th. Smylie was on-site chasing the story in real time — he walks through racing out to the hole, tracking down the actual divot, and simulating Bryson's swing to assess whether the penalty was warranted. The ruling drops Bryson to T5 at 5 under, three back of the lead heading into the weekend.Plus: two Royal Birkdale course records as Lucas Herbert and Sam Burns both card 62s, the tied-lowest round in major championship history; a bigger-picture debate on whether rules enforcement is consistent across the PGA Tour, USGA, and R&A (with the Wyndham Clark, Joaquin Niemann, Jon Rahm, and Sam Burns/Oakmont cases all on the table); real questions about whether Bryson tees it up Saturday; a driver-strategy breakdown comparing Tommy Fleetwood and Jon Rahm's approaches on the 10th hole; and score predictions for the cut line and the weekend leader.Don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, and follow us on socials @thesmylieshow!Chapters1:25 Bryson DeChambeau's penalty controversy breaks2:18 Smylie's on-the-ground chase to the 5th hole5:22 Breaking down Bryson's backswing and the fescue lie8:43 Bryson's agent statement and the intent question10:03 Big picture: is rules enforcement consistent across tours?13:37 Would Bryson withdraw from The Open?17:00 Debate: is the two-shot penalty too harsh?22:46 Friday's other big stories: course records & leaderboard23:55 Driver strategy: Tommy Fleetwood vs. Jon Rahm on 1028:45 Cut line prediction, Ryan Gerard shoutout & weekend outlook#brysondechambeau #theopen #smylieshow #golf

He might not lead The Open Championship at halfway but all the headlines at Birkdale are being made by Bryson DeChambeau, who finished his second round in second place but was then handed a two-shot penalty for improving his lie on the 5th hole. Andrew and Eddie discuss it all while Iain digs around for further news then joins the chat. Quite apart from all that, it was a day of extraordinary golf with 62s being handed in by leader Lucas Herbert and American Sam Burns. Even bigger names are not too far away with Scheffler, Cam Young and Tommy Fleetwood, but the question remains: Will Bryson play? And will Donald Trump put in a call to have it overturned?Brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukAnd by: www.ping.comEmail:tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast Hosted on Acast.

Charlie Hulme and Smylie Kaufman break down Round 1 of the 154th Open Championship at Royal Birkdale, where Jackson Suber leads at 5-under and Englishman Daniel Brown sits T2 at 4-under. Smylie, who walked all day with the Cam Young–Ludvig Åberg–Wyndham Clark group, dives into how the course shifted from a calm, receptive morning to tough northwest crosswinds in the afternoon, and compares the end-of-day green conditions to Poa annua.Plus: the variety and firmness of Birkdale's turf on display through Tommy Fleetwood, Jordan Spieth, Jon Rahm and Rory McIlroy's approach shots, a parallel between Rory and Bryson DeChambeau's rough putting days, Cam Young's near-63 that got away, why the course rewards precision but still leaves room for aggressive drivers, Scottie Scheffler's 93%-fairways 2-under start, Bryson's driver edge in the firm conditions, and the guys' cut line and 36-hole leader predictions.Don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, and follow us on socials @thesmylieshow!Chapters0:00 Round 1 wrap: Jackson Suber leads, Daniel Brown T21:21 Smylie's flushed wedge on No. 72:52 Morning calm to afternoon crosswinds: how Birkdale played5:34 Course variety and firm turf 7:51 Morning vs. afternoon scoring — Cam Young9:24 Who the course favors: precision, aggression, and spinny fescue11:47 Scottie Scheffler's 93% fairways and 2-under start13:26 Bryson's driver advantage and conditions in his favor14:31 Bryson's approach game: the real test comes Friday afternoon15:21 Preview picks recap, cut line and leader predictions#theopen #golf #smylieshow #royalbirkdale

This episode we discuss the setup for the Open Championship at Royal Birkdale, with particular focus on the firm, fast conditions and how much water the course is losing each day through high wind and heat. We talk about how the greens are being monitored and adjusted with modern technology, and how the course presentation is being kept under control.We also look at how players may adapt their strategy, with many expected to leave driver out in favor of irons, mini drivers or three-woods. The discussion covers wedge bounce, firm fairways, bunkers, and how the course conditions create difficult equipment decisions for the field.We spend a lot of time on the holes that could shape the championship, especially 1, 10, 13, 14, 17 and 18. We talk about the challenge of the opening stretch, the reachable but dangerous par 5s, the narrow closing hole, and how wind direction could change the approach on several key holes.We then turn to likely scoring and possible outcomes, with the group largely agreeing that the winning score is more likely to be in the high single digits rather than very low. We also discuss which players may suit the test, including Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood, Jordan Spieth, Bryson DeChambeau, Scottie Scheffler, Patrick Reed, Matt Fitzpatrick, Harris English and others.Finally, we cover the “Tooting Beck” low-round prediction for British and Irish players, and close with a brief exchange about England's football match against Argentina.

Smylie Kaufman joins Charlie Hulme for a major championship preview edition of The Smylie Show, this time reporting on-site from Royal Birkdale ahead of the 154th Open Championship. Smylie's fresh off practice-round scouting with Scottie Scheffler, Sam Burns and Tommy Fleetwood, and the two break down how a UK heat wave has left the course baked out, brown, and playing firmer and faster than usual — with wind direction doing wild things to distance and club selection all week.Plus: a full hole-by-hole walkthrough of Royal Birkdale using the R&A's course guide and Padraig Harrington's notes on each hole, including the redesigned par-3s and the new 13th where Jordan Spieth made his iconic bogey in 2017.

The Open Championship is here! What a tournament, what a history. And today Nick and Mark preview The Open.Mark asks Nick about when he played in The Open Championship in 2008 and Greg Norman led at 54 holes, tied for the lead with 8 holes to play ...and he was retired and spending his time playing tennis !!As usual we have a look at the power rankings, and we start with a convo about Tommy Fleetwood - this is his home course, and Nick says there is nothing like local knowledge of a course, and Mark says he is the best player to not win a major, so it could be a good weekend for him.Nick notes that Min Woo's iron play is looking much better, and his short game is on point. Mark says this course suits Min Woo, and he is one of the best stinger players he's ever seen, and he deserves to be considered the leading Australian in the field.Mark talks about how this course has seen plenty of great putters win, seems to suit them. Nick isn't looking forward to seeing Tom Kim play, describing him as 'brutal' to watch (in reference to his pace).Scheffler is #5 in the power rankings, and Mark feels he knows why that is the case. Nick's 'concern' about Scottie this week is his putting.Rory #4 in the power rankings, Nick saw a funny piece of footage featuring Rory this week which we have a listen to. Matt Fitzpatrick...he is red hot, both Nick and Mark are huge fans and reckon he's set for a big weekend.Mark cannot understand why Morikawa is #2 in the power rankings for The Open, Nick can and explains why. Nick goes on to explain the strategy for playing this course.With the tournament finishing at a similar time to the World Cup Final, Nick tells Mark that there is a contingency to adjust tee times if England are in the final to avoid the situation of empty stands, or cheering from the stands as people keep an eye on the World Cup.And before the turn we discuss some of the fun, new markets Betr have on the tournament, there are some crackers if you want to whack 5 bucks on a couple. And what will our Talk Birdie Betr multi be? We kick it around before the turn, and decide after. We text Hummer live, and get the odds back in record time. You can open a Betr account at their website here, or on the app, and you'll find out multi on the Betr Specials section.Enjoy The Open !!!We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:Hostplus, Talk Birdie To Me's official retirement partnerBMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;The Find My Player app - follow every player on every tour;And Southern Golf Club.

Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme sit down with coaching legend Butch Harmon — the man behind Tiger Woods, Greg Norman, Dustin Johnson, Tommy Fleetwood, and more. Butch shares his take on Scottie Scheffler (he compares him to Jack Nicklaus, not Tiger), breaks down Rory McIlroy's raw talent, and explains what separates the best ball-strikers in the world.The conversation covers the equipment rollback debate, Jose Maria Olazabal's 9-club proposal, coaching Tiger through the 1997–98 swing change, and Dustin Johnson spending 3.5 years learning to hit a fade.Then Charlie launches "Butch Harmon Story Time" — the Corvette on 17 Mile Drive at Cypress Point, caddying at the Alfred Dunhill Links, Tiger threading a driver through a range bay door at Rio Seco, and a live Sky Sports moment Butch will never live down.Subscribe for new episodes every week and follow @thesmylieshow on all socials ⛳️CHAPTERS0:00 Intro0:58 Travelers Championship Recap2:20 Scottie Scheffler & Jack Nicklaus7:15 Butch's Coaching Philosophy12:59 Tommy Fleetwood & the Nine Wood16:25 Equipment & the Rollback Debate21:38 Olazabal's 9-Club Idea23:10 Tiger's Nine Shots26:05 Butch Harmon School of Golf28:46 Story Time with Butch41:20 Tiger at Rio Secco44:27 Coaching Tiger's Swing46:18 DJ Learns to Fade49:00 Tom Watson at Turnberry52:12 Smylie's Swing Analysis#smylieshow #pgatour #golf #tigerwoods #scottiescheffler

From there, Andy, Kevin, and Joseph discuss a variety of pro golf topics, including Tommy Fleetwood's winless 2026, Scottie Scheffler's upcoming attempt to win the Career Grand Slam, and whether PGA Tour U is harming players more than it's helping them.

The crew is deep into summer golf season — and this week there's plenty to talk about. First up, the Women's US Open heads to Riviera Country Club, and the guys make the case for why Riv might actually suit the women's game better than the men's. The iconic par-4 10th gets its due, and Coach Clappy shares why he'll be there in person — supporting his student Davina Zand as she competes in the Curtis Cup at Bel-Air.From there, the conversation turns to one of coaching's great debates: has golf instruction become too technical? With launch monitors, video, and biomechanics data at every corner, the guys ask what would happen if you stripped it all away — and why the best coaches in the world often keep it brutally simple. Think Butch Harmon telling Tommy Fleetwood to "shut the door" with his hip.Then it gets personal. Cam Smith's recent move away from long-time coach Grant Field sparks a broader conversation about when it's right to change coaches — and when it isn't. How do you know it's time to move on? What does loyalty really look like? And should coaches be cutting ties with students more often than they do?Next week: TaylorMade's Chris Trott (Trotty Golf) joins to talk equipment fitting — drop your questions now.

#360 | Dave sits down with Ishveen Jolly, founder and CEO of Open Sponsorship, to talk about what influencer and athlete marketing actually looks like for B2B brands — and why it's more accessible than most marketers think. Ishveen breaks down how a $5K March Madness campaign outperformed traditional ads, why your first influencer deal will almost certainly miss on the offer, and how to think about sports sponsorships without a Tommy Fleetwood budget. They get into audience-fit versus story-fit sponsorships, why the goal should never be a landing page click, and why most B2B teams are applying the wrong success metrics from the start. If you've ever wondered how to get into influencer or sports sponsorship marketing without a Fortune 500 budget, this is the episode.Timestamps Join 50,0000 people who get Dave's Newsletter here: https://www.exitfive.com/newsletterLearn more about Exit Five's private marketing community: https://www.exitfive.com/***Brought to you by:Optimizely - A no-code AI platform where autonomous agents execute marketing work across webpages, email, SEO, and campaigns.
