About this listen

 Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme catch up after a long 4th of July weekend and some well-needed time at the municipal golf course, where Smylie attempted to break his own (truly absurd) course record. Smylie and Charlie then recap the John Deere Classic, wondering if they are underrating Brian Campbell after his second TOUR win this season (despite only averaging 276 yards off the tee). They also discuss Max Homa's near miss, and what it would take over the next two months to make the USA Ryder Cup team this fall. Finally, SK and CH look over some changes to the TOUR Championship purse structure in the wake of adjustments to the competitive format, and discuss whether it makes the playoffs any more compelling.
