What. The. Hell?!
Peace appears to have (very unexpectedly) broken out in professional men’s golf civil war.
The PGA Tour has agreed to merge with LIV Golf and the DP World Tour in a groundbreaking new commercial entity to “unify” the professional game, ending months of division, hostility and rancour.
It’s a truly huge announcement – and one that nobody saw coming – which merits its very own Emergency Podcast.
Within minutes of the news breaking, Michael and Bryce hit record to document their reaction – and those of the game’s biggest names and you, our listeners – in this special ep.

The second men’s major of the year is upon us – but does anybody really care?
On this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast, Michael and Bryce discuss the PGA Championship’s identity crisis and weigh up what can be done to solve it.
In terms of who’ll be left holding the Wanamaker Trophy on Sunday night, is this the week that Rory finally breaks his major duck? Is Jon Rahm looking good for back-to-back major wins? Can one of the 18 LIV men steal the show and the spoils?
Plys... if you could erase any year from the major championship record books, which one would it be and why? The guys make their suggestions.
