Episode 198: Scottie Scheffler Smokes the Field in Memphis

Author: Break 80 Podcast August 17, 2026 Duration: 59:03
World number one, Scottie Scheffler, lapped the field Sunday in Memphis at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Scheffler left no doubt in the final round as he won the championship by 8 shots at -17. We will dive into the the FedEx Cup playoffs and discuss if Scottie locked up the player of the year award with this win. The U.S. Amateur Championship gave people a look at Merion Golf Club this week and the course and quality of play did not disappoint. We talk the golf course and our thoughts on the championship. We also go into the week in YouTube golf, Mike makes an albatross and a new segment, where Mike finds golf stuff on ebay in the middle of the night!

The Break80 Podcast is a weekly conversation with Stouds, Mike, and Tim, three friends who find as much to talk about in the game's margins as in its major championships. This isn't just a recap of tour scores; it's a deep dive into the personal stories, the memorable rounds, and the local characters that give golf its texture. You'll hear their own experiences on the course, the good shots and the bad breaks, all framed by a genuine curiosity about what makes the sport compelling. The show actively seeks out the people and places that don't always make the headlines but are essential to the game's heart. It's built on the idea that the pursuit of that magic number-breaking 80-is a universal struggle, a mix of technical challenge and personal narrative. Tuning into this podcast feels like pulling up a chair in the grill room after a round, where the discussion ranges from equipment quirks to course design, always with a focus on the camaraderie that keeps players coming back. The Break80 crew operates with the understanding that the difference between a 79 and an 80 is everything, a philosophy that colors every story they uncover and every topic they share with their listeners.
