Smylie and Charlie are back to break down Scottie Scheffler's win at the Tour Championship — his second FedEx Cup, his third title of the year, and the moment he passed Tiger Woods for the all-time PGA Tour money record. They dig into the stats, his Jack Nicklaus comparison, and his pointed press-conference comments on East Lake's pin positions and setup.Plus: the full breakdown of Brian Rolapp's 2028 PGA Tour overhaul — the Championship Series schedule taking shape around GO by Raymond James and 14 sponsors chasing the final four spots, the new two-week match play finale format, Rory McIlroy's 15-event rule likely going away, LIV players' return conditions, whether East Lake stays in the Tour Championship rotation, and the wishlist of historic clubs (Olympic Club, Baltusrol, Cypress Point) that could host a reimagined postseason.Lastly, SK and Charlie dive into the Presidents Cup discussion as we look ahead to Medinah.Before all that: Charlie makes his first-ever albatross on Saturday — and discovers a fan who shares his name made one on the very same day.Don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, and follow us on socials @thesmylieshow!Chapters0:00 Intro & toasting the 2026 PGA Tour season's end2:05 Charlie's albatross and the "other Charlie Hume"6:15 Ryan Gerard's murky tour status6:37 Scottie's FedEx Cup playoff run10:39 Scottie's loose press-room mood & the Brandel Chamblee shoutout12:36 Scottie's 2026 season in review: near-misses & the Nicklaus comparison16:24 By the numbers: strokes gained, scoring records & passing Tiger on the money list18:21 The two stats behind the leap: proximity and putts made from 25+ feet23:53 Scottie's East Lake pin-position rant, in his own words26:14 Course architecture debate: this year's setup vs. old East Lake31:34 Should East Lake stay in the Tour Championship rotation?35:13 Brian Rolapp's leadership style & the state of the 2028 overhaul38:19 Championship Series update: GO by Raymond James and the chase for the final 4 events40:21 Scarcity by design: how the new model out-leverages LIV on star power42:29 Board meetings, FedEx's sponsorship future & criteria for the last 4 spots43:27 LIV return conditions, Rory's 15-event rule going away & a fall "world tour"47:43 Inside the new 2-week match play finale format49:59 The "no winner after week one" problem & the TV coverage challenge52:29 Group of death, tournament luck, and the case for match play54:19 Separating the season-long trophy from the finale spectacle57:19 Venue wishlist: Olympic Club, Baltusrol & golf's most exclusive clubs59:29 Smaller crowds, bigger engagement — the Cypress Point/Walker Cup comparison1:01:56 "What is amateur golf in 2026?" — why the top clubs are still cautious1:11:40 Presidents Cup discussion#golf #pgatour #scottiescheffler #tourchampionship #golfrecap #golfhighlights #smylieshow
