@GolfDigest Did he throw a fit and ask to call Trump?

James Nagle mistakenly used a green-reading map at Saucon Valley to help him line up putts, violating Model Local Rule G-12. Read more: glfdig.st/7gwH50ZsjBh

@3tripsc I couldn’t disagree more. I’d say the disconnect is covid golfers and everyone else. Bryson is a clown show.

And you guys wonder why Bryson doesn't want to talk to the media. I don't know if there's been a greater disconnect between the fans and media view of a golfer than with Bryson DeChambeau.

@Johnny_Recruits @PatMcAfeeShow “Changing the media platform” doing what thousands of other radio shows have done for years lol gimme a break

@PatMcAfeeShow Keep going Pat, keep doing your thing. You and the boys are changing the media platform.

@GolfRamble @JosephLaMagna Sounds like you should make your own list Ramble

@JosephLaMagna It is! I just think a 39-year-old journeyman showing up and finishing T11 in his first U.S. Open is more impressive than a 24-year-old finishing down the field in all four.

2026 Major Grades are in!

@jamierkennedy @Sean_Zak Foxy hit the bunker shot on 18 Saturday, Cam couldn’t on Sunday. Crazy they had basically the same shot.

The margins of major golf. 🟡 Cam Young hit a cut that landed 292 yards (yellow X below). It rolled into the left side of the bunker, he made bogey and finished -9. ⚪️ Ryan Fox hit a cut that landed 282 yards (white X). It skirted the bunker, he made birdie and finished -10.

@wingoz Trey you had no idea what golf was when the PGA was in August. Stop acting like you’re a golf guy

Move the PGA back to August

@SteveCampy Realistically you probably just can’t read greens. Stroke is fine. If anything I’d say maybe take it back a little further, can see you rushing it and pushing it when you’re trying to force it in with that short backstroke.

Can someone who is good at golf please tell me what I’m doing wrong with my putting stroke? I know it’s not pretty. It’s Zalatoris levels of ugly.

@TeeTimesPub No one look guiltier than a guy stomping his feet, threatening to quit and trying to call the president.

Bryson trying to call the president and stomping his feet / arguing for 45 minutes doesn’t feel performative. Just signals to me how much he knew and fully believed he didn’t break the rule. He’s still a reasonable person, don’t think he’d go to this lengths if he thought he could be wrong on that. Imagine being accused of lying and cheating in a massive moment, if you 100% knew you were in the right, it’d be silly to NOT argue it to the fullest extent. Of course those that already don’t like you will view that through a negative lens, but who cares.

@budflight @BrentleyGC Awesome picture dude

@BrentleyGC From a week ago inbound to PHL

Few golf courses are immediately recognizable from 10k feet. This is one of them:

@SheponAir Me actually taking Clay Travis side

Hey Clay, whether you agree with his politics or not, the man put in a decade plus, that was his livelihood. And in terms of breaking down the game, he more than held his end of the bargain. Is it really worth the likes and engagement to kick someone when they are already down?

@DivotDoctrine Oh for sure. Cause Bryson has done so well closing majors recently. 🥱 Gimme a fucking break.

Ryan Fox deserves all the props and is the Champion Golfer of the Year, but I can't help but think the Open was entirely altered after Bryson was docked those two strokes.

🫡 The BBC's World Cup 2026 montage is utterly sensational. x.com/alexewing_/sta…

@ByronYork Maybe it was because Bryson acted like an absolute child. Partially the R&A’s fault for allowing him to be driven back out there to put on a show, but also Bryson’s fault for acting like that and then threatening to quit.

It appears that some of the anti-Bryson DeChambeau commentary has softened a bit now that the British Open is over. The harshness of Friday's discussion -- "He did everything but lay down behind it or take a weed whacker to the tall grass," said the Golf Channel's Brandel Chamblee -- faded by Sunday, probably because of 1) the understanding comments of players Max Homa, Sam Burns, and Scottie Scheffler; 2) the crowd's clear support of DeChambeau; and 3) DeChambeau's continued play, even though he faded to -4 and T14. Why such a sharp reaction Friday? Some of it was certainly just a dispute about the rules, but some of it also seemed to be about LIV. A post-LIV reconciliation still seems a long way away.

@Top100Rick “Top100Rick” doesn’t know what performative means

Rory called Bryson DeChambeau “performative”. This video is a pretty fair argument that Rory is being a bit of hypocrite. A full minute of Rory acting a bit immature. Under the new rules, there are multiple 2 stroke penalties here.

@LIVRandONIONS So now Niemann is just Ryan Fox? I thought Niemann was a superstar?

For the "Joaquin Niemann will never win a major" crowd

@JeffSmithGolf Lol Bryson hasn’t come close to finishing off a major in his last 9 attempts. No one was worried.

The entire anti-LIV golf media ecosystem worked OT to deny Bryson Dechambeau the Claret Jug (pregame to fake penalty to Saturday’s gaslighting). Thinking they’d make way for a PGA TOUR golden boy. Instead. End up with 39-yo journeyman Ryan Fox. Super worthy like champ like Aaron Rai. But. Same one-off juice. Karma AF.

@KylePorterNS Don’t worry, Kisner still fucking sucks

OK, hand up, I was wrong about this. I thought saying four back was too far back was absurd because there were seven rounds of -4 or better today. I also wanted more on *why* Bryson -- who hit it so well the first three days -- couldn't shoot -4 or better instead of just, "He's too far back." But fair play to Kiz. None of the -4s or better came late in the day, and he believed that's how the golf course was going to play out. I'll head back to my newsletter shanty and draw up some new takes.

I’d love to see @K_Kisner get back to playing full time so that we never have to hear him again ruin a golf tournament

@jride442 @CPowers14 Crazy easy again when it mattered? Cause one guy went on a great run? Stop it

@CPowers14 What a weird fucking tournament. Coverage was awful. Course played easy then hard then easy. Then impossible then when it mattered crazy easy again. Weird ass stupid rules, stupid course decisions. Just weird.

Hard to make a moment like that feel small but NBC managed to pull it off

@DustinT_NBA “I get one is live”… uhh no I don’t think ya do bud

YouTube golfers legitimately put together a better production than these commercial broadcast companies. You can see every shot from multiple angles with accurate shot tracers. I get one is live and the other is compiled, but they could learn a lot from the way YouTubers film and present their rounds.
