In this episode of Tales From the Tips, D.A. and 15-year Tour Caddy Mick Middlemo break down the chaos, carnage, and comedy from the latest PGA Championship. From brutal course setups that had players questioning their life choices to the ongoing debate of whether modern major championship golf has officially become “survival of the luckiest,” the boys dive deep into what separates the grinders from the complainers on the biggest stage in golf.

The conversation swings from sharp tournament analysis to legendary locker room storytelling, including unforgettable tales about fan-favorite character and golf folk hero Boo Weekley. Mickmo shares insider perspectives on course conditions, player frustrations, and the mental circus that comes with navigating major championship pressure, while D.A. tries to determine if some setups are testing golf skills… or just emotional stability.

Expect laughs, behind-the-scenes Tour stories, hot takes on PGA Championship setups, and enough golf banter to make your weekend foursome sound painfully quiet by comparison. Whether you’re a hardcore golf fan, weekend hacker, or someone who simply enjoys hearing caddies roast Tour pros in real time, this episode delivers a perfect mix of insight and entertainment.
