2025 Open Championship Recap: Scottie's historic run and Rory's homecoming
Scottie Scheffler is the 2025 Champion Golfer of the Year after securing his fourth major title with a Sunday 68 at Royal Portrush. Andy and Brendan spend the first half of this episode putting Scheffler's run into some historical context following his win, placing him a U.S. Open win away from the career slam at just 29 years old. The two break down his round and the skills he showed throughout the week that enabled him to separate from the rest of the field in Northern Ireland. The back half of this recap touches on basically the rest of the field, as Andy's "Storylines Nobody's Talking About" include Rory McIlroy winning "Low Holywood," a Sunday storm hitting Westy Island, plenty of Wikipedia Top Tens, and Kevin Kisner blaming the UGSA for Wyndham Clark's Oakmont incident. There's also plenty of course takeaways from Royal Portrush, and Brendan ends this week of coverage with a little game from his time on the grounds at the 2025 Open.
