Summary
In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy is joined by Joseph LaMagna of The Fried Egg to preview the PGA Championship at Aronimink, a Donald Ross design hosting a major again after the rain-softened 2018 BMW Championship. They discuss how firmness, lack of subair, and a rainy forecast could drive scoring toward even par or slightly under, with wide-ish fairways, big sloped greens, and a likely driver-heavy setup making putting and lag putting especially important. They compare Aronimink’s member-focused Gil Hanse restoration to Oak Hill’s major-centric renovation, debate whether the course favors distance, and highlight key holes and a potentially decisive finishing stretch. They assess major contenders including Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Cameron Young, Xander Schauffele, Jon Rahm, and Bryson DeChambeau, plus sleepers like Min Woo Lee, Sepp Straka, Sam Burns, Harris English, and Chris Gotterup.
