U.S. Open Preview | Best Plays and Fantasy

from Making The Turn|Golf Podcast · host Jordan Angrist, Toby Goldner

Bud Cawley finally breaks through at the RBC Canadian Open — no wins in years of starts, a Friday 63, and a closing 65 to hold off Matt Fitzpatrick, Viktor Hovland, Jackson Suber, and a fading Wyndham Clark. Jordan and Toby break down the wildest break of the year (a tee shot that ricocheted off a cart path and saved Cawley two shots), recap Tommy Fleetwood and Sam Burns coming up just short, and look at what's next for the 36-year-old first-time winner.Then it's straight to Shinnecock Hills for the US Open. Jordan and Toby dig into the brutal 2018 scoring averages, the firm-and-fast fescue, and a forecast calling for 40-50 mph gusts that could bring Thursday's round to a standstill. The guys debate whether Scotty Scheffler's driver issues knock him out of career Grand Slam contention, make the case for Rory McIlroy thriving in chaos, and break down the LIV contingent — Bryson, Rahm, and a hobbled Brooks Koepka who may be a game-time decision.Jordan and Toby go deep on the field: JJ Spieth's putting yips heading into a title defense, Matt Fitzpatrick's course fit and ball-striking, a Dustin Johnson dark-horse case, and why Tyrrell Hatton's major record makes him impossible to ignore. Plus a full slate of matchup bets and top-20 picks across the leaderboard, a look back at the stacked 2018 Shinnecock leaderboard, and a big giveaway announcement — the guys are headed to Long Island and giving away a signed US Open hat.#PGATour #USOpen #Shinnecock #GolfPodcast #MakingTheTurn #RBCCanadianOpen #BudCawley #GolfBetting #DraftKings #FantasyGolf #DFS #BrooksKoepka #RoryMcIlroy #ScottyScheffler
