Is LeBron James the Biggest Moment YouTube Golf Has Ever Had?

LeBron James has officially entered YouTube Golf with plans for a recurring golf series on his own channel. Mike and Chris debate whether one of the most famous athletes in the world launching his own golf platform is the biggest mainstream moment YouTube Golf has ever had, what his arrival could mean for established creators and whether a relative beginner with unmatched access can bring an entirely new audience into the game. Then the format shifts to questions with no preparation and no mulligans, with Chris taking the private side and Mike the public side on New Jersey’s best risk-reward par 5 and most intimidating tee shot, along with the first sign that tells you someone can really play and a blind ranking of five golf apparel brands.

The guys also recap the FedEx St. Jude Championship and Albertson’s Boise Open before looking ahead to the BMW Championship and AdventHealth Championship. Plus, the 111th Met Open gets underway at Essex County Country Club, bringing one of the Met Area’s premier championships to the historic New Jersey venue for the first time.
