I'm about ready to run off the golf course So, Welcome to the Friday Golf Podcast. I'm Garrett Morrison and today I'm

bringing on Shane Ryan of Golf Digest to talk about the state of Rory McElroy.

As we all know, Rory just came runner-up in the US Open at Pinehurst,

losing to Bryson to Shambow by one stroke in heartbreaking fashion.

So I thought it would be a good time to assess the broader arc of Rory's career.

And I can't think of any media member I'd rather discuss this with than Shane Ryan.

Shane has been covering Rory in depth for the better part of Roy's career in the professional

limelight, starting with Shane's excellent book,

Slaying the Tiger, which was about the 2014 season of majors and PJ Tour events.

And Shane also wrote an outstanding story on Rory's final round at

Pinehurst, which we'll talk about in depth in this episode and which you can read

at golf digest.com. Shane is always such a delight to talk to one of my favorite writers and people in golf journalism.

But before we get to that, let's talk briefly about golf forever.

You may have been noticing recently that you don't feel as loose on

the course as you used to. If that's the case for you, your body may be holding your

game back and it's time to change that.

and a swing trainer that will give you

added flexibility, strength, and balance, so you'll be able to hit the first tee, ready to go.
