## Resource

The 2026 PGA Championship is over, but Kyle Porter and Hayden Martin are still trying to process one of the weirdest and most entertaining major championships in recent memory. In this episode, they unpack five things they now view differently after a chaotic week at Aronimink, including: Why the PGA Championship still matters more than people admit Whether “bad winners” are actually great for golf Why course setup discourse is getting harder every year How putting became the hidden skill of the week And why Jon Rahm suddenly feels terrifying again Plus: Aaron Rye’s incredible major-winning performance Why this tournament worked even without a superstar winner JT almost stealing the PGA Why no-cut events still stink And Garrett Higgo/Blockie discourse somehow continuing 📫 200K golf fans follow us on social, and 17K read our free weekly newsletter, which is handcrafted to make the daily golf fan’s personal experience of golf feel more meaningful.
