Summary
In this episode of Hold The Green, Steve is joined by his fellow ISN colleagues Andy, Brian, and Kyle recap the PGA Championship at Aronimink, where Aaron Rai won by three over Alex Smalley and Jon Rahm. They discuss Rai’s historically low Data Golf skill ranking for a major winner, his late-round surge, and how putting variance and difficult greens shaped the leaderboard. The group debates whether Aronimink and PGA setup choices fairly rewarded skill, with on-site observations highlighting weather impacts, controversial pin placements (notably Friday on 14), and pace-of-play issues. They assess key players including Rahm, Cam Smith, Rory, Scheffler, Ludvig, JT, and others, plus frustrations with missed bets and underperformers. The episode closes with early Shinnecock Hills picks and brief notes on upcoming TPC Craig Ranch.
