Hang Up and Listen

Golf’s Boring GOAT?


Listen Later

Hosts Alex Kirshner, Ben Lindbergh, and Lindsay Gibbs discuss the brilliant (but boringly calm) Scottie Scheffler, who racked up yet another victory at the Open Championship at Royal Portrush. The hosts then welcome Front Office Sports writer Annie Costabile to examine the WNBA’s All-Star weekend. They also get into the MLB All-Star game’s swing-off finale.

On the bonus episode available exclusively for Slate Plus members, the panel ranks their favorite and least favorite innovations in sports broadcasting.


Scottie Scheffler (3:37): He loves The Office more than golf.

WNBA All-Star Weekend (21:42): How the players used their CBA leverage

The Swing-Off (40:33): With great power comes great endings?
