Golf's Anchorman: Is Bernhard Langer Cheating?
Matt Cook and Buttsy kick off with a preview of the Fall Golf Season discussing emerging talent and veteran presence in the series. The branding of the Fall series is compared to the Korn Ferry tour, followed by a comprehensive Procore Championship preview, including Sahith Theegala's chances. They then shift to LIV Golf Chicago, exploring player dynamics, standings, and Anthony Kim's situation. The Swannies Style segment announces a major GIVEAWAY! Lastly the guys cover Bernhard Langer's anchoring controversy, leading to suggestions for new putter anchoring rules. The episode wraps up with a debate on rule 10.1b, Langer's technique, and acknowledgments.
Key Points
- The fall series could benefit from a rebranding to better highlight the mix of emerging talent and veteran players aiming to regain their status.
- LIV Golf's new open zone and drop zone system introduces potential drama and strategic player movements, with captains no longer being guaranteed safety if they fall into the drop zone.
- Bernhard Langer's putting technique, which appears to involve anchoring against his chest, remains controversial and is seen by many, including the podcast hosts, as violating the spirit of the anchoring ban.
