On July 22nd, 2025, we break down Scottie Scheffler's Open Championship victory, the bizarre stories behind his dominance, and what his historic run means for the rest of the golf world.


THE SCHEFFLER ERA

  • We go beyond the box score of Scottie Scheffler's Open win, exploring his unique motivations, the bizarre hand injury that almost stopped him, and why his peers are already comparing this dominant run to Tiger Woods.
  • "Winning is 'awesome for two minutes,'" Scheffler said, explaining his life is "not a fulfilling one" from golf alone, grounding his success in faith and family.
  • The near-disaster? A puncture wound on his hand sustained before the tournament while trying to cut ravioli with a wine glass.


LIV'S MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT

  • In stark contrast to Scheffler's triumph, we detail the underwhelming major season for LIV Golf's biggest names, questioning what their struggles mean for the tour and their legacies as the 2024-25 season concludes.
  • Both Dustin Johnson and Brooks Koepka missed the cut in three of the four majors, while Jon Rahm failed to record a finish better than T7.
  • Bryson DeChambeau offered his respect, praising Scheffler's incredible ability to balance his elite performance with his commitment to family.
