0:00.0	Welcome to the Clubhouse with Shane Bacon, presented by Tiop.com by the PGA Tour.
0:09.7	I am your host, Shane Bacon, and it's Friday.
0:13.4	And finally, I'm coming up with a U.S. Open Lookback podcast.
0:18.0	Actually, it works a little bit considering the Phil Mickelson comments that came out on
0:22.1	Wednesday. And we've had a few days to kind of digest what happened with both Brooks Kepka and
0:26.4	Shinnekaa kills and the golf course and all that went down. So I actually think this plays pretty
0:30.8	well. Had Curtis Strange on who, you know, is a great person to chat with about winning back-to-back U.S. Opens. He's the last guy to do it, and he was there to interview Brooks Kefka.
0:40.2	He sent out a great tweet about always wanting to be the first person there to congratulate
0:43.9	the first player that was able to do it.
0:46.3	And, you know, Brooks Kebke, the first guy since 88, 89 to pull off back-to-back wins in
0:50.2	completely different fashions.
0:51.4	That's something Curtis and I jump into. But it was a great week.
0:55.5	I mean, you know, I was very lucky to be a part of the telecast and getting to call some great
1:00.3	shots towards the end and, you know, him making that birdie on 16. You know, shout out to Brad
1:05.2	Faxson and Gilhance and Joe and Paul and Curtis and everybody that was involved. I thought it was a really, really fun week for our team at Fox. And, you know, it's always fun to be able to present a championship
1:14.7	in that in that style. So, uh, we are all resting up. I know Faxson texted me on Monday and said he,
1:19.9	he took a nap for the first time in a couple of years. Gil Hans texted me on Thursday and finally said, hey, we needed a few days to kind of chill out, and I finally wanted to send
1:28.6	the Texas state, thanks for the great week. But yeah, we roll through. We have the senior
1:32.9	open next week and on and on we go. But this week is the Travelers Championship, and TPC River
1:38.4	Highlands isn't the only course in Connecticut linked to world-renowned designer Pete Dye.
1:43.0	Winbury Hills Golf Course is Pete Dye's first effort in New England, and it's definitely
1:46.6	worth checking out.
