In this gripping episode of Across The Pond Golf, hosts Erik and Craig dive into the turbulent world of golf, far removed from the serene backdrop of The Masters. They dissect Taylor Gooch's recent verbal mishap directed toward Rory McIlroy the English talent to which is undoubtably a bona fide golf legend, amidst the swirling controversies of LIV Golf and its figurehead, Greg Norman. The episode heats up with a surprising update on Anthony Kim's return to the golf scene, tattoos and all, after a lengthy hiatus. Amidst the excitement of the Mexico Open and the standout performance of Jake Knapp, the hosts debate whether this season will bring more of Knapp time’s dynamic play. This episode is a rollercoaster ride of opinions, updates, and predictions, mirroring the unpredictable nature of golf itself. Don't miss Erik and Craig's take on the latest developments in the golf world, where the drama off the green is just as compelling as the action on it.

In the world of professional golf, the narrative landscape is rich and ever-evolving, prominently featured across various media platforms, now commonly referred to as social media. The discourse surrounds the legendary Tiger Woods, affectionately known as The Big Cat, and the speculation about his career's longevity. Questions arise about his ability to compete at the highest level—does he have the resilience to continue, or is it perhaps time to retire his illustrious spikes? It appears that focusing on his business endeavors might be a prudent direction for Tiger at this juncture.
In parallel, Jordan Spieth captures attention with a notable oversight regarding his scorecard, raising questions about the adequacy of traditional scoring methods in today's technologically advanced era. Despite Spieth's error, the debate extends to whether the PGA Tour should bear some responsibility for such incidents.
The Riviera Country Club witnessed an unexpected yet familiar victory with Hideki Matsuyama's remarkable late-round performance, securing another win to his name. However, this triumph was not without its controversy—did the ball move during play? This incident and more from last week's tournament are expertly dissected by Craig and Erik in their latest coverage.
