Show notes
Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme break away from MDW festivities to discuss Ben Griffin's second PGA TOUR win in a month, and whether he - and his teammate in the first win, Andrew Novak - should make the USA Ryder Cup team at Bethpage Black this fall. Smylie and Charlie also discuss the factors surrounding Rory McIlroy's decision to skip the Memorial Tournament at Jack's Place, and Bud Cauley's incredible comeback story as he returns this week to the site of the car accident that nearly derailed his career seven years ago. Finally, Charlie's travels this week for "work" took him to some amazing golf destinations, and he recaps trips to Eagle Point and National Golf Links of America.
