On this episode of The Fried Egg Golf Podcast, Andy Johnson and Joseph LaMagna discuss the PGA Tour's new competitive model, unveiled last week by Brian Rolapp and Tiger Woods. Andy first provides a general overview of the new structure that splits the Tour into two distinct "series," with promotion and relegation between them. Then, Joseph joins him for an in-depth breakdown of all the details before the two point out potential landmines that the Tour needs to fix before these plans go into play in 2028.

As per major championship tradition, Andy Johnson is joined by 2008 Masters champion and CBS lead analyst Trevor Immelman for a recap of the 2026 U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club. Andy and Trevor discuss Wyndham Clark's second U.S. Open victory and his recent run of form that has placed him back in the top ten of the Official World Golf Ranking. They break down Clark's Sunday round and praise his ability to stay composed when faced with a crowd rooting for his competitors. Andy and Trevor also commend the USGA for the course setup at Shinnecock after back-to-back poor results in prior U.S. Opens at the venue. They touch on the pack of chasers who didn't do enough to catch Clark on Sunday, focusing on Sam Burns, Tom Kim, and Scottie Scheffler, as well as a few players who did not even see the weekend. The two wrap things up with a brief preview of next month's Open Championship and the upcoming CBS Golf broadcast schedule.
