## Resource

Ahead of the the national championship's return to Shinnecock Hills in two weeks, Andy, Brendan, and Kevin Van Valkenburg continue their rewatch of the 1986 majors with a Flashback Friday on Raymond Floyd's U.S. Open win. The three share their favorite moments from Sunday's round,  available for viewing on the USGA's YouTube Channel . They discuss the main stars of the day, including Floyd, Greg Norman, and Lee Trevino, and give some takes on the ABC broadcast itself. In a new add to these major rewatch episodes, Andy, Brendan, and KVV hand out awards such as "The Patrick Cantlay Housecat of the Week" and "The Tommy Fleetwood Memorial Yellow Square" to players who deserved some recognition for their efforts 40 years ago. Kevin sends this episode off with some detailed research about Raymond Floyd's off-the-course business ventures, including the management of a first-of-its-kind band in the United States!   Welcome to 140 years of setting the standard with Mercedes-Benz.
