The R&A and USGA have announced the most significant changes to golf equipment in a generation, outlining plans to introduce a Model Local Rule that will restrict how far elite players are able to hit the ball.
On this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast, Michael and Bryce react to that news, assess what kind of impact it’s likely to have and discuss who the biggest winners and losers are.
Elsewhere, has The PLAYERS Championship lost its lustre? Is Rory McIlroy cracking under the pressure of being the PGA Tour’s de facto spokesperson? And why the hell have the BBC passed up the chance to show golf for free?!

Well... that wasn’t the Tiger Woods comeback we expected. Not only did he surprise everybody by making the cut, he also found himself at the centre of controversy over his now infamous ‘tampon prank’ on Justin Thomas.
On this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast, Michael and Bryce reflect on that incident and discuss whether or not it was, as some have suggested, “just harmless fun”.
There’s also chat about what’s next for the 15-time major champ, as well as praise for new world No.1 (and winning machine Jon Rahm).
The guys also answer your questions and discuss some of the most famous people they’ve ever seen at golf tournaments... which leads them down a very bizarre rabbit-hole!

Michael and Bryce reflect on a crazy weekend in golf, dominated by the installation – and subsequent removal – of a ‘patio’ either side of the Swilcan Bridge in St Andrews.
What were the Links Trust thinking? Was the reaction over the top? What happens now? The guys debate all of that and more.
Elsewhere, Chad Mumm, the executive producer of new Netfix series ‘Full Swing’, drops by to preview the show, and there’s talk about the latest LIV rumours, Augusta National’s new 13th, a 530-yard drive, and Bryson’s Cobra ‘split’.

Michael and Bryce recap an incredible week in the UAE, where Rory McIlroy held off Patrick Reed to win the Dubai Desert Classic – but that’s not the half of it. There were rules debacles, spats, trees, tees and more.
How excited should we be getting about Rory? Is Patrick Reed a bad guy or just misunderstood? Is a little needle good for the game? The guys get into all this and more.
There’s also reaction to Phil Mickelson’s return to Twitter and news that the BBC could be about to give up on The Masters altogether.
Plus, golf is now available on prescription in some parts of Scotland – and not before time!
