This weekend delivered a sports feast worthy of multiple highlight reels, with Graham and Scott diving deep into Scottie Scheffler's historic PGA Championship victory that cements his place among golf's elite. Scheffler's 15th win in just over three years puts him in the conversation with early-career Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus—a statistical comparison that has both hosts marveling at what we're witnessing.

The conversation shifts through a whirlwind of playoff drama across multiple leagues. The NHL's Conference Finals are set with Stars-Oilers and Panthers-Hurricanes, featuring heartwarming stories like the Jets player who scored after his father's passing. Meanwhile, the NBA playoffs delivered stunning upsets with the Knicks taking down Boston and Oklahoma City dominating Denver, setting up conference finals that few predicted when the postseason began.

Not content to stick to on-field action, the guys break down the NFL schedule release phenomenon—particularly the Chargers' brilliant Minecraft-themed video filled with Easter eggs trolling division rivals. From QR codes mocking the Raiders to subtle jabs at Saquon Barkley's move to Philadelphia, the social media teams brought their A-game. The episode rounds out with discussion of Brock Purdy's new contract that rewards "Mr. Irrelevant" with top-tier quarterback money and an early preview of the upcoming US Open at intimidating Oakmont Country Club, where even the pros fear the lightning-fast greens.

Whether you're a fan of dramatic putts, Game 7 heroics, or social media brilliance, this episode captures the electricity of a packed sports weekend while delivering the unfiltered commentary and friendly banter that defines the Bald Guys on the Bench podcast.
