## Resource

Wyndham Clark delivered when it mattered most at the BMW Championship, closing with three straight birdies to hold off Rory McIlroy, and capture his third PGA TOUR victory of the season. Gary Williams breaks down Clark’s dramatic finish at Bellerive Country Club and asks the question that suddenly has some life: Is there now a legitimate Player of the Year debate between Clark and Scottie Scheffler? Brendan Porath of Fried Egg Golf joins the show to discuss: • Wyndham Clark’s clutch finish and ability to close under pressure • Rory McIlroy’s bounce-back week and near-win in St. Louis • Clark vs. Scheffler in the Player of the Year race • Why the BMW Championship’s rotating venue model continues to work • The Presidents Cup picture and why Gary Woodland deserves serious consideration • What could be next for Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau following the conclusion of the LIV Golf season Plus, Scottie Scheffler reveals he battled hand, foot, and mouth disease during the BMW Championship, the final 30 players are set for the Tour Championship at East Lake, and Gary looks at the remarkable summer of U.S. Walker Cup team member Jay Leng.
