Summary
In this episode of the Inside Golf Podcast, host Andy is joined by Bryan to recap a brutal US Open DFS week marked by extremely low 6-of-6 rates, breaking down key mistakes tied to heavy chalk exposure — particularly Patrick Reed — alongside other misses like Adam Scott, Viktor Hovland, J.J. Spaun, and Shane Lowry. They highlight some correct calls including Scottie Scheffler, Tom Kim, and Keith Mitchell, and work through cut killers and heroes, ownership lessons, and lineup-building takeaways. The conversation then shifts to the no-cut Travelers Championship at TPC River Highlands, with debate around Scheffler's outlook amid perceived swing and body language changes, likely ownership levels, and his optimizer value. Justin Thomas and Ludvig Åberg emerge as the preferred top-end plays, with a look at Cameron Young's injury and leverage potential. In the mid and lower tiers, the guys discuss Ben Griffin, J.J. Spaun as a flop-lag, Aaron Rai, Ryan Gerard, Corey Conners, Eric Cole, Bud Cauley, and potential rebound plays in Akshay Bhatia and Shane Lowry. The episode closes with quick film recommendations for The Furious and Waves.
