Has the PGA Tour lost the plot?
Thursday Aug 10, 2023
Thursday Aug 10, 2023
The PGA Tour is back in the spotlight this week. Hot on the heels of announcing its radically different schedule for 2024 – which includes a record $25m bonus payment for the FedEx Cup winner – one of its longest-serving and most influential executives quit.
This came just days after it was announced that Tiger Woods had accepted a new role as a Player Director.
Considering everything that’s going on, it’s reasonable to ask: is the PGA Tour in turmoil?
Michael McEwan and Alex Perry get into that on this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast.
Elsewhere, the guys preview the AIG Women’s Open, share their thoughts on the R&A’s new pet project Golf It!, salute Bryson DeChambeau for his 58.
Plus, Michael makes an extraordinary admission about starters...

The complete post-Open debrief
Thursday Jul 27, 2023
Thursday Jul 27, 2023
Another Open Championship is in the books – and let’s be honest, it wasn’t a classic.
On this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast, Michael and Bryce reflect on the ‘Walkover on the Wirral’, where Brian Harman romped to his first major title.
Is the new champ getting the respect he deserves? If not, why not? Did the R&A make a blunder with the course set-up? What was with the unruly behaviour from the crowds? What next for Rory? The guys get into all of this and more.
There’s also a look ahead to this week’s Evian Championship, which a surprise name has chosen to skip, as well as an early preview of how the Ryder Cup teams are shaping up and a major Podder Of Merit development...
