Sean Melia of Bay State Golf spent the week on the ground at TPC Boston, and he came
back with the story of the FM Championship that the broadcast didn't tell: Megan
Khang's father, who is also her coach, cheerfully absolving himself of any
responsibility for his daughter's putting — while half-swinging a club on the range
as she played. Kent and Scottie work through Ruoning Yin's sixth win and first in
over 600 days, what TPC Boston is actually like as a fan and a photographer, and
whether a tournament with this much investment behind it deserves major status. Then
the Solheim Cup, where both captains have already made calls worth questioning:
Anna Nordqvist retiring mid-captaincy and taking herself out of a roster she'd walk
onto, and Angela Stanford leaving the Angel Yin decision open far too long. Plus the
WTGL rosters finally land — five teams, twenty-five players, and one very loud
absence.
