A wild week in the world of golf went out with a bang as Nick Taylor made a 72-foot eagle putt on the fourth playoff hole to become the first Canadian to win the national open since 1954. Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme discuss Taylor's win, the latest updates on the bombshell news last week that the PGA Tour, DP World Tour, and Public Investment Fund struck a deal to pool commercial interests, and preview the third major of the year - the US Open at Los Angeles Country Club. Matt Stoller, the author of "Goliath: The 100-Year War Between Monopoly Power and Democracy," joins Smylie and Charlie to discuss his antitrust concerns surrounding the proposed PGAT/DPWT/PIF deal.
