The Open Championship Recap: Ryan Fox Wins, Bryson DeChambeau's Penalty, and more| Ep. 9

Brian Manzella and Sam Osborne break down everything that happened at The Open Championship, and everything golf media won't say about it.

Ryan Fox came from outside the top 50 in the world to beat Sam Burns down the stretch, taking two brutal breaks on 15 and 17 without so much as a raised eyebrow. TV gave Fox credit for staying cool. What nobody mentioned is that Sam Burns has now missed the putts that mattered the last couple of times he had a chance to win a major. That's the story the broadcast skipped.

Then the big one: Bryson DeChambeau's two-stroke penalty for improving his lie in the second round. Brian and Sam agree the ruling was correct. They also agree it's a double standard, because this happens on tour constantly and only gets called when the cameras and the crowds are on you. From Dustin Johnson in 2019 at Royal Portrush and this year with Wyndham Clark at Shinnecock to the questions around Tiger, the history here is longer than the broadcast wants to admit.

Plus: Rory McIlroy says he doesn't care about his legacy, and neither host is buying it. Why Scottie Scheffler and Sam Burns seem allergic to stardom. How $100 million in the bank changed player motivation compared to the Nicklaus and Watson era. And a full teardown of NBC and Peacock's Open coverage: Adam Scott and Russell Henley finished ninth and barely got a single shot on air, Kevin Kisner has been neutered by producers, and Johnny Miller remains the gold standard nobody will let anyone copy.

Sam also owns up to his own tournament meltdown, including back-to-back double and triple bogey, and teases the side saddle putting conversation coming in a future episode.

Next up on No More Lies: the second ten of the most influential golf books of all time, and the next installment of the top 100 golf swings.
