About this listen

In Episode 6 of The Drop, we tackle the biggest transformations shaping the future of golf. From Pinehurst’s precision makeover to Oakmont’s brutal setup for the 2025 U.S. Open, we break down the major course updates that will define the next five years.

We also dive deep into the distance debate: Is modern power ruining golf—or just evolving it? Plus, we explain the golf ball rollback in simple terms: who it affects, why it’s happening, and what it means for your weekend rounds.

To top it off, we're officially launching The Drop Digest! Get extended show notes, coffee picks, gear tips, exclusive merch drops, and more—all in one sleek, weekly email.
