Well, that was a fun first day! 
Round one of The 151st Open is in the books. We had low scores, high scores and pretty much everything in between on Thursday at Royal Liverpool. 
Michael and Alex are joined by Golf Digest’s Luke Kerr Dineen to chat about amateur Christo Lamprecht’s stunning start, Tommy Fleetwood’s title prospects, and Rory McIlroy’s challenging (but ultimately satisfying) opening salvo. 
The guys also discuss another horror day at the office for Justin Thomas as well as some extraordinary comments made by Ernie Els after his first round.

On this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast, Michael and Bryce reflect on the tragic news about Grayson Murray.  
They discuss the two-time PGA Tour winner’s career, his successes, his challenges and what lessons can be learned from his heartbreaking decision to take his own life at only 30 years of age.  
Elsewhere, there’s a full US Women’s Open preview. Can Nelly Korda make it seven wins (seven!) in her last eight starts? Is Rose Zhang her most likely challenger? Are we finally seeing prize money progress? And should trans golfers, such as Hailey Davidson, be allowed to enter qualifying for these events? 
There’s also some chat about Bryson and a long overdue statue for one of the game’s greatest names.

A tribute to Grayson Murray

Xander Schauffele is a major champion at long, long last. 
So often the bridesmaid in the game’s biggest events, the Californian stepped up to win the PGA Championship at Valhalla.  
On this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast, Michael, Bryce and Alex reflect on Schauffele’s major breakthrough and wonder where it all went right. 
There’s chat about Bryson’s new-found popularity, Viktor’s missed opportunity, Bob Mac’s incredible week and Scottie Scheffler’s arrest (still feels completely weird to type that).  
Plus, is Tiger Woods in denial? Is DJ a spent force in the majors? And what now for Rory McIlroy?

The big fat PGA Championship debrief!

It’s PGA Championship week which means it’s time for part two of our preview.  
Michael, Bryce and Alex run the rule over some of the contenders for the Wanamaker, including a resurgent Rory McIlroy, new-dad Scottie Scheffler, the near-faultless Ludvig Aberg and the polarising Patrick Cantlay. 
Plus, have we already seen the best of the career grand slam-chasing Jordan Spieth? Why do the Brits always do so badly? And could we be in line for more Michael Block heroics? 
Elsewhere, there’s chat about the latest PGA Tour bombshell, as well as thoughts on Bob MacIntyre’s recent comments.  
As if all that wasn’t enough, there’s also a chance to win a brand-new Callaway driver as The bunkered Podcast hits a major milestone...

The ultimate PGA Championship preview: Part 2

Michael, Bryce and Alex set the scene for the second men’s major of the season: the PGA Championship.  
Is any player under more pressure to perform at Valhalla than Talor Gooch? Does the six invites for LIV players expose a serious flaw in the world rankings? Does the PGA really have the strongest field in golf? And is Brooks Koepka the man to beat? 
Elsewhere, there’s chat about the TGL and the latest LIV shenanigans, as well as one of the best Honesty Boxes to date.  
For some reason, there’s a bit of talk about Eurovision, too. But hey, why not?

The ultimate PGA Championship preview: Part 1

So, there we have it. PGA Tour players who ‘stayed loyal’ to the PGA Tour in the aftermath of LIV’s emergence now know how much they’re going to be rewarded with. Tiger Woods is set to receive $100m. There’s $50m for Rory McIlroy. Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas will each pocket $30m. And on and on it goes. 
But is this a good look for the game? Is the professional realm of the sport in danger of losing fans altogether as the incredibly rich get ludicrously richer? 
Michael and Alex get heated about it on this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast.  
Elsewhere, is dominance boring? Why has Rory McIlroy returned to the PGA Tour policy board? Is LIV Adelaide the real ‘fifth major’?  
Plus, we welcome our youngest-ever guest to the show, with genuinely very funny consequences.
