Talking The Open & PIF/PGA Tour Partnership, Jay Monahan's Future, & Much More with Ron Sirak, Jay Delsing, John Mahaffey, & David Ogrin...

In this episode, I'm joined by one of the all-time great golf writers Ron Sirak, St. Louis Sports Hall of Famer Jay Delsing, 1978 PGA Champion & 1986 Players Champion John Mahaffey, and 1996 Texas Open Champion David Ogrin.

I get all four guys to weigh in on this week's Open Championship, their experience playing in or covering an Open, plus if there is a path back for Jay Monahan. Here is what we also discuss:

Ron Sirak shares his thoughts on the Women's US Open, the escalating purses on the PGA & LPGA Tours, his thoughts on who is the greatest of all-time is on the men's side, and he reminds us of the greatness of Ben Hogan.

Jay Delsing talks about what it was like making it to the quarterfinals of the US Junior Golf Tournament. We hear about his days playing alongside Corey Pavin, Steve Pate, and Duffy Waldorf at UCLA, what it was like being paired with Arnold Palmer, and his final round 61 at the 1993 FedEx St. Jude Classic.

John Mahaffey shares his experience finishing T10 in the 1975 Open Championship and what it was like competing against the superstars of the 70s and 80s.

David Ogrin tells us about his T13 finish at the 1983 US Open at Oakmont and what it's like putting on those greens. Fourteen years later at the 1997 US Open, he finished T10 and why his brother-in-law cost him and Tom Lehman a shot at winning. We also get a lesson about stretching to find what you're capable of on the course.
