The 19th Hole Golf Show: Recapping the 2018 US Open



On this episode of the podcast, Ryan Ballengee recaps the 2018 US Open from Shinnecock Hills, kicking things off with what seemed to set apart Brooks Koepka from Dustin Johnson, Justin Rose and the rest of the weekend contenders. Then he gets into the Phil Mickelson debacle and shares his nuanced view on what happened, including why Mickelson deserved to be disqualified. Finally, Ryan talks about the USGA's setup choices throughout the week and makes clear this approach rightfully weeds out much of the field before the tournament begins.
