    Presidents Cup Course Preview: Inside Medinah's OCM Redesign with Mike Cocking

    Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme sit down with Mike Cocking - the "C" in OCM Golf, the "O" belonging to International Team Captain Geoff Ogilvy - days before the OCM redesign of Medinah #3 takes the stage as the host of the Presidents Cup. Mike explains how the closing stretch of the storied American venue was reimagined to better bring natural features into play, and what that means for strategy and entertainment as the world's best prepare to take it on. Plus: OCM's origin story (including the "M" - Ashley Mead), inspiration from a childhood spent playing golf on Melbourne's Sand Belt, the Kingston Heath and Shady Oaks projects (including a Ben Hogan keepsake story), the agronomy issue that drove the Medinah rebuild, whether Ogilvy has a built-in edge as International Team captain, and Cocking's prediction for who wins at Medinah.

    Akshay Bhatia Gets Technical On Driver Work, Bunker Play, & His Go-To Cook Out Order

    Akshay Bhatia joins Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme for his third appearance on the show (rising up the all-time leaderboard - watch out Justin Thomas and James Nitties!). Fresh off his third straight Tour Championship, Akshay opens up on why he's calling his 2026 season "mediocre," the exact swing changes he's targeting this off-season to fix his driver, and what it would mean to finally crack the top 20 in strokes gained off the tee. Plus: his partnership with caddie Joe Greiner after their first year together, his cross-handed chipping technique and elite bunker play, the mind-blowing way he uses ball speed as a distance control mechanism with his irons, and with a childhood spent in North Carolina - his go-to Cook Out order.

    Presidents Cup Picks Reaction + The 2026 PGA Tour Season In Review

    Brandt Snedeker and Geoff Ogilvy have set their 2026 Presidents Cup rosters, and Smylie and Charlie break down every pick — starting with the headline move: 21-year-old Jackson Koivun, who was outside the top 40 on points and only a few months into his pro career, getting the nod for Team USA over veterans with far bigger resumes. They get into why the pick makes sense, and what it means for Koivun's career. Plus: the full US and International rosters for Medinah, the stat-driven case for why Ryan Gerard should've made the team, dream-pairing predictions for both sides, and why Team USA's depth might make this one lopsided on paper. From there, Smylie and Charlie shift into a full 2026 PGA Tour season review — favorite events and storylines, the "old guys" who had big years, feel-good stories, and players who took steps forward and back.

    Walker Cup Preview: Ryder Cowan, Jack Whaley & TJ Ford Break Down Lahinch

    Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme preview the 2026 Walker Cup at Lahinch Golf Club with three guests: Team USA's Ryder Cowan, US Amateur champion Jack Whaley - whose victory at Merion earned him a GB&I roster spot, and Lahinch operations manager TJ Ford, who walks us through some truly stunning flyovers. Ryder discusses matching Jackson Koivun for low-amateur honors at the US Open, what he learned studying Koivun's game, and the golf balls he forgot before his Round of 64 win over Miles Russell. Jack recaps his US Amateur run at Merion — wasp sting included — and the major exemptions that came with it. TJ takes them through Lahinch's Old Tom Morris and Alister MacKenzie design, the club's famous roaming goats, and tells an incredible stories about some caddie shenanigans on the 5th hole. Charlie and Smylie close it out with the full team rosters and their own final score picks. Don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, and follow us on socials @thesmylieshow!

    Scottie Scheffler Wins the Tour Championship + Brian Rolapp's 2028 PGAT Overhaul + Presidents Cup Talk

    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.

    Tommy Fleetwood: Breakthrough Win At East Lake, Working With Butch Harmon, and Fatherhood

    Smylie and Charlie are joined by defending TOUR Champion Tommy Fleetwood on the latest episode of The Smylie Show! Tommy reflects on his breakthrough win - his first on the PGA TOUR - in 2025 at East Lake a year later, the near-misses at the Travelers Championship and FedEx St. Jude that preceded it, the "instant gratification" he felt on the flight home, and how that mindset has carried into this season. Plus: His work with Butch Harmon and the power of simplicity, his love for the nine wood and mini driver, an emotional week playing the Open Championship at home in Southport, and his "fatherhood foursome" featuring Oscar, Murray, and Frankie (and the antics that usually ensue during and after). We also get a highly entertaining behind-the-scenes look at Frankie's prep process ahead of the 2025 Masters Par Three Contest.

    BMW Championship Recap: Wyndham Clark or Scottie Scheffler For Player of the Year?

    BMW Championship Recap: Wyndham Clark or Scottie Scheffler For Player of the Year?  Smylie Kaufman heads straight from the airport (with an update to his airlines Big Board!) to the studio to join Charlie Hulme for a recap of the BMW Championship, where he broadcasted the action from Bellerive Country Club all week long. Smylie and Charlie discuss Wyndham Clark's third win of the 2026 season, and where that places him in an increasingly interesting Player of the Year race that also includes Scottie Scheffler, Cameron Young, Matt Fitzpatrick and Chris Gotterup. SK and CH also recap a disappointing ending - but a much improved week - for Rory McIlroy. A discussion about a "flat cat" putting grip that Rory has been using as a training aid leads to a conversation about the most unique aids that Smylie has seen while playing on Tour. Also in this episode: Smylie puts together his most likely Presidents Cup team with six USA players now automatically qualified, and Scottie's week dealing with hand, foot and mouth - a familiar experience for fathers of young children.
