Ready Golf Podcast

18-05-2021 • 1 hr 20 mins

This week’s episode is all about setting up the year’s second major, the PGA Championship taking place at The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort, South Carolina. We get into details on the course’s history, some unique design elements and discuss the challenges the field will be facing this week in what Golf Digest has named the most difficult course in America. We also break down the players and debate which style of game should see some success out there. We also make our standard head/heart/wildcard picks for who we think will take home the coveted Wannamaker Trophy.

But before getting into the PGA Championship we also (quickly) take you through the headlines of the week, which include:

  • A feel-good victory at the British Masters for journeyman Richard Bland

  • A *shrug* victory for K.H. Lee at the AT&T Byron Nelson

  • Another botched handling of a prestigious women’s event by the NCAA

The Ocean Course is set up to be the longest course in Major tournament history measuring at 7,876 yards and we hope you all enjoy every moment of it! Check back with us next week for our recap.
