237: Should Keegan Bradley play in the R...

The Smylie Show
About this episode
We begin this week on the Smylie Show with Smylie Kaufman & Charlie Hulme's reaction to a stunning comeback win for Keegan Bradley at the Travelers Championship! With Bradley set to captain the American side in the Ryder Cup this fall, Smylie and Charlie discuss what more Keegan needs to do in order to feel comfortable using a pick on himself as a playing captain - the first time since Arnold Palmer in 1963. SK and CH also delve into the flip side of Bradley's win - a devastating finish for Tommy Fleetwood as he continues to search for his first-ever PGA TOUR win.

Smylie and Charlie are then joined by GOLF.com's James Colgan, who provides some insight on the TOUR's new CEO, Brian Rolapp. James delves into the work Rolapp did as the de facto No. 2 at the NFL, including landmark media deals that could inform the approach he'll take with the PGA TOUR.
