Thursday Mar 28, 2024
Thursday Mar 28, 2024
Chris DiMarco thinks LIV should buy the Champions Tour because the prize funds on the over-50s tour are “a joke”.

Does he have a point or is he wildly out of touch? Michael and Bryce debate that on this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast.

Can anybody stop Scottie Scheffler?
Wednesday Mar 20, 2024
Wednesday Mar 20, 2024
With his come-from-behind win at The PLAYERS Championship, world No.1 Scottie Scheffler consolidated his position as the game’s most dominant player, which begs the question: can anybody stop him?
Michael, Bryce and Alex reflect on Scheffler’s Sawgrass success (try saying that ten times really fast) and discuss what he has to do to get to the next level. Michael also outlines why he hates the expression ‘Tiger-esque’.
Elsewhere, the guys discuss Jay Monahan’s future, the big meeting in the Bahamas, and Jon Rahm’s magnificent Masters menu.
Plus, ‘What The Hell Is That Sponsor’ makes an overdue return and there’s some spirited debate about which golfer would make the best James Bond and Bond villain.

What now for Tiger Woods (and Sun Day Red)?
Tuesday Feb 20, 2024
Tuesday Feb 20, 2024
As launch events go, Tiger Woods’ having to withdraw from the Genesis Invitational after only 24 holes was probably not what the 15-time major champ had in mind for his new apparel brand Sun Day Red.
On this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast, Michael, Bryce and Alex discuss another hectic week in the life of Tiger Woods and ask: just who, exactly, is going to buy his clobber?

The first event of the new LIV season is in the books – but how did it go? Did Jon Rahm make any difference? Is the broadcast any good? What do they still need to fix?

Are golf club memberships too expensive?
Wednesday Jan 17, 2024
Wednesday Jan 17, 2024
A new study has found that almost half of all golf club members in the UK are paying more than £1,000 a year for that privilege, up from roughly one in five in 2018 – but amidst a cost of living crisis, just how sustainable is that?
Michael, Bryce and Alex discuss that very topic on this week’s episode of The bunkered Podcast, brought to you in association with Callaway.
Elsewhere, there’s reaction to Keith Pelley’s shock departure from the DP World Tour, Rory’s latest brush with victory in Dubai and plenty of chat about whether or not sponsor’s invites need to be more tightly regulated.
