This week on The Missing Links Golf Show, Steve and Andy dive deep into a fascinating PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club — a venue that has sparked debate about what major championship golf should actually look like.

Did the course expose the limits of “bomb and gouge” golf? Or did it finally reward strategy, precision and proper course management?

The boys unpack:

• Why Aronimink divided opinion among players and fans
• Whether modern majors rely too heavily on distance
• The growing questions around golf ball rollback
• Jon Rahm’s return to serious major contention
• Why Brooks Koepka suddenly looks dangerous again
• Cam Smith’s surprising resurgence
• Bryson DeChambeau’s current crossroads
• Scottie Scheffler’s rare putting struggles
• Justin Rose continuing to prove class is permanent

And of course, there’s plenty of discussion about unlikely major champion Aaron Rai — the two-gloved grinder whose humility, work ethic and precision golf won over just about everybody watching.

Steve and Andy also explore:

• Why Aaron Rai’s upbringing and training philosophy are so compelling
• The value of learning to score on shorter golf courses
• What strokes gained data really tells us about winning majors
• Why ball striking still rules elite golf

Plus, the Pilgrims get another original Missing Links rock anthem to close out the show:
“The Bomber & The Short Gamer.”

Because apparently the world now needs a golf rock album.
