John Dempsey returns to the show to break down a controversy-filled weekend at The Open Championship. The headline story: Bryson DeChambeau’s two-stroke penalty for improving his lie in the rough, and his reported threat to walk away from the tournament rather than accept it. There’s also the rules violation itself, Rory McIlroy’s candid comments about DeChambeau’s personality, and how Golf Channel’s “Live From” team — Rich Lerner, Brandel Chambly, Paul McGinley, and Eamon Lynch — reacted on air.

Plus, there’s the tournament’s real story: Ryan Fox, the late-blooming New Zealander who tied the all-time major low-round scoring record and held his nerve down the stretch to win his first major. Plus, why they call it “The Open” and not “The British Open,” and a check-in on our own golf games.
