The Open Championship is finished, Ryan Fox is the Champion Golfer of the Year, and the men’s major season is officially over. Trey Wingo and Justin Ray recap a wild week at Royal Birkdale, from Ryan Fox’s historic comeback to Bryson DeChambeau’s penalty controversy, Scottie Scheffler’s strange Sunday, Cameron Young’s near-miss, Sam Burns’ heartbreak, and the bigger question golf now has to answer: why are the majors done in July? Ryan Fox Makes History Ryan Fox went from T-52 after 36 holes to winning The Open Championship, completing the biggest 36-hole comeback by position in men’s major championship history. Justin explains why Fox’s Saturday 62 changed everything, why his win was so rare, and why his style, pace of play, and New Zealand sporting background made him such a popular champion. The Bryson Penalty Debate Trey and Justin break down the Bryson DeChambeau two-shot penalty, why the R&A was in charge instead of the PGA Tour, and why intent was not the only issue. They also discuss Bryson’s reaction, the idea that he may have threatened to leave the championship, and why both Trey and Justin believe golf is better when Bryson is relevant in majors — even when the drama gets complicated. Scottie, Cameron Young and Sam Burns Scottie Scheffler had one of the strangest final rounds of the week, including a wild break on 17 and a ruling that could have created even more controversy. Cameron Young shot 64 on Sunday and still came up one shot short. Sam Burns had another major chance slip away, but Justin explains why he may be one of the best bets to break through soon. Why Is Major Season Already Over? The Open was the final men’s major of the year, which means golf now waits roughly nine months until the next one. Trey makes the case for moving the PGA Championship back to August, why the current major schedule feels too compressed, and why golf is better when the major season has more room to breathe. Mailbag Trey and Justin also answer viewer questions on scoring records, whether strokes under par or total score matters more, major championship experience, video review in golf, future multiple-major winners, and whether players owe the media post-round interviews.

Ryan Fox Just Pulled Off the Biggest Comeback in Major Championship History. Here’s What It Means.

Ryan Fox Just Pulled Off the Biggest Comeback in Major Championship History. Here’s What It Means. Head to cozyearth.com and use code WINGO for an exclusive 20% off. Ryan Fox is the Champion Golfer of the Year. At 39 years old, Fox won The Open Championship for his first major title, his third PGA TOUR win, and one of the most unlikely major victories golf has ever seen. After two rounds at Royal Birkdale, Fox was tied for 52nd. By Sunday night, he was holding the trophy. Trey Wingo reacts to Fox’s historic comeback, his 72nd-hole birdie to edge Cameron Young, and why this win was not just a great finish — it was a career-defining moment. The Record Ryan Fox did not just win The Open. He pulled off the largest 36-hole comeback by position in men’s major championship history. After sitting T-52 through two rounds, Fox shot into contention with a Saturday 62, then finished the job on Sunday with four birdies in his final six holes. That included the birdie on 18 that gave him the championship by one. The Rarity Fox also joined a very short list of golfers who have won their first major at 39 or older in the last 30 years. Trey breaks down why that matters, what it says about Fox’s career, and why this was not some random one-week story. Fox had already won twice on the PGA TOUR in 2025, both times in playoffs, and he brought that same toughness into the biggest moment of his career. The Legacy Ryan Fox became just the second player from New Zealand to win The Open Championship, joining Bob Charles in 1963. Trey looks at Fox’s athletic background, his New Zealand roots, his pace of play, and the calm mentality that helped him handle bad breaks, pressure, and one of the toughest closing stretches in golf. The Chasers Cameron Young shot 64 on Sunday and still came up short. Sam Burns had the lead and another major chance, but could not close. Scottie Scheffler had one of the strangest final rounds of the week. Bryson DeChambeau’s penalty controversy still hung over the weekend. Trey breaks down how all of it shaped the final round at Royal Birkdale. The Major Season Is Over The Open Championship was the final major of the year, which means golf now waits roughly nine months for the next major at Augusta. Trey explains why he still believes the PGA Championship belongs back in August, why the current major schedule feels too compressed, and why golf is better when the major season has more room to breathe. Ryan Fox won The Open. He made New Zealand history. And he pulled off one of the greatest comebacks major championship golf has ever seen. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Bryson DeChambeau Still Has a Chance. But He Has to Get Out of His Own Way.

Bryson DeChambeau Still Has a Chance. But He Has to Get Out of His Own Way. Head to cozyearth.com and use code WINGO for an exclusive 20% off. After three rounds at Royal Birkdale, The Open Championship has two major stories. The first is the leaderboard. Sam Burns heads into Sunday with a two-shot lead at 10-under, after putting together one of the best 36-hole stretches in major championship history. Ryan Fox, who fired a 62 on Saturday, will join him in the final pairing. Si Woo Kim, Ryan Gerard, Tommy Fleetwood, Ludvig Aberg, Xander Schauffele, Scottie Scheffler and others are all still within range. And then there is Bryson DeChambeau. After Friday’s two-shot penalty, Bryson remains one of the biggest stories of the championship. Trey Wingo breaks down why the penalty ruling was not a PGA Tour conspiracy, why the R&A had jurisdiction at The Open, and why the rule did not require intent. If officials believed Bryson’s actions had the potential to improve his swing, that was enough for a penalty. Trey also reacts to the way Bryson handled the fallout. For two straight days, Bryson did not speak after his round. After the animated discussion with rules officials, the delayed uncertainty around whether he would continue, and the possibility that he may have threatened to disqualify himself, Trey says Bryson owed people an explanation. But the golf part is still very real. Bryson is only four shots back entering Sunday. Nobody ahead of him on the leaderboard has done what he has done: win multiple major championships. Sam Burns, Ryan Fox, Si Woo Kim and the others in front of him all have a chance to change their careers, but Bryson already knows what it feels like to close. That makes Sunday about mindset. Does Bryson look at the leaderboard and focus on the penalty he believes cost him? Or does he realize he is four shots back at the final major of the year, with no major champions ahead of him, and a real chance to turn his entire season around? Trey compares the situation to Rory McIlroy at the Masters, when Rory had to reset mentally after missing a putt to win and still found a way to finish the job. The Open Championship is bigger than one player. But Bryson DeChambeau has made himself one of the biggest stories of the week. Now he has one round left to decide what kind of story it becomes.

Bryson DeChambeau’s Two-Stroke Penalty Changed The Open Championship

Bryson DeChambeau’s Two-Stroke Penalty Changed The Open Championship Head to cozyearth.com and use code WINGO for an exclusive 20% off. Subscribe to support the channel: https://www.youtube.com/@treywingopresents?sub_confirmation=1 Bryson DeChambeau thought he had shot a 66 in the second round of The Open Championship at Royal Birkdale. Instead, everything changed after he walked into the scoring area. The R&A rules officials reviewed Bryson’s actions on the fifth hole, where his drive ended up in deep fescue. The question was whether Bryson had improved his lie by walking around the ball and pressing down the grass behind it before hitting his shot. After a long and animated discussion, officials assessed a two-stroke penalty. That moved Bryson from seven-under to five-under. Instead of sitting one shot off the lead and playing in the final group on Saturday, he dropped farther down the leaderboard. Trey Wingo breaks down why the penalty matters, why the R&A was never going to bend on protecting the integrity of the rules, and why Bryson had to be careful not to let his frustration ruin the entire tournament. Because according to Trey, if Bryson had disqualified himself over the penalty, it would have been one of the worst decisions in professional golf history. Even after the penalty, Bryson is still right in the mix. The leaderboard entering the weekend is wide open. Lucas Herbert leads at eight-under after shooting 62. Jackson Suber, Cameron Young and Ryan Gerard are at six-under. Sam Burns and Bryson are at five-under. Behind them are names like Scottie Scheffler, John Rahm, Tommy Fleetwood, Robert MacIntyre and Francesco Molinari. And that is what makes this so interesting. Many of the players ahead of Bryson have never won a major. Bryson has won two U.S. Opens. He knows what it takes to close on the weekend. The biggest question now is whether he can calm down, reset mentally, and turn this controversy into fuel. Trey also explains why the penalty changed the Saturday pairings. Without it, Bryson would have played in the final group with Lucas Herbert. Instead, Herbert now gets Jackson Suber. That is a very different dynamic. The Open now has everything heading into the weekend: controversy, record-setting rounds, young players at the top, proven major champions lurking, and Bryson DeChambeau trying to turn his entire year around. The penalty hurt him. But it did not end his championship. More Straight Facts Homie!

Is the NFL Giving Fans Too Much Football?

Is the NFL Giving Fans Too Much Football? Head to cozyearth.com and use code WINGO for an exclusive 20% off. Andrew Brandt joins Trey Wingo to talk about one of the biggest questions around the NFL: can the league ever become too big? Trey starts with the idea of scarcity. Part of what made the NFL so powerful is that fans had to wait for it. Sunday mattered. Monday night mattered. One game a week made the product feel special. But now the NFL is everywhere. There are games all day Sunday, including early international games. Monday Night Football. Thursday Night Football. Thanksgiving games. A Black Friday game. Christmas games. Saturday games late in the season. And now even Thanksgiving Eve is becoming part of the NFL calendar. So Trey asks the real question: is the NFL messing with the formula that made it so valuable? America’s Addiction Trey says football is not America’s pastime anymore. It is America’s national addiction. Andrew says he would like to think the NFL could eventually go too far, but the evidence still says no. The league has survived concerns over protests, concussions, politics, sports betting and oversaturation, and the appetite for football is still massive. Trey brings up Mark Cuban’s old warning that “pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.” Andrew’s response is simple: the hogs are not close to getting slaughtered. Schedule Overload The conversation gets into whether fans will keep planning every other day of the week around NFL games. Trey points out that players like Jason Kelce have talked about what makes football special: you only get one game a week, and everyone builds toward it. Andrew admits that even he has had moments where it felt like there was too much football, especially around Thanksgiving and Christmas. But whether that feeling becomes universal is still the question. Cowboys Value and the Next Sale From there, Trey and Andrew connect the schedule conversation back to franchise value. After the Seahawks sold for nearly $10 billion, Trey asks what the Dallas Cowboys could be worth. If Seattle is worth almost $10 billion, is America’s Team worth $20 billion? Andrew explains that some franchises may never actually hit the open market, including the Cowboys, Patriots, Bengals, 49ers and Eagles, because they are family-controlled teams. Still, the larger point is clear: NFL ownership has become one of the most valuable assets in sports. Green Bay and the NFL’s Secret Sauce The conversation ends with one of the most interesting parts of the NFL business model: Green Bay. Trey points out that the Packers play in the smallest market in major American professional sports, yet they are able to compete because the NFL shares revenue equally across teams. Andrew calls it “corporate socialism.” The league’s owners are extremely capitalist in almost every other business sense, but the NFL works because every team gets an equal share of the national revenue. That is why Green Bay can compete with New York, Dallas, Los Angeles, Chicago and Miami. It is also why NFL franchise values keep climbing. The question is whether the league can keep adding more games, more windows and more money without damaging what made the product special in the first place. For now, the answer still seems to be yes. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
