The week leading into the 2025 PGA Championship, I thought I would reshare one of our fan favorite podcasts titled, "They Won for Everyone." This podcast tells the story of golf's systematic discrimination and the events that led to the striking of the PGA's Caucasian Clause.
Next week the TalkinGolf History podcast will have a brand new podcast on the History of James Braid.
For the US Open we will cover the History of Oakmont Country Club.

When did the Masters become a Major Championship?
And the search for the lost apostrophe...Listen in and learn more about what is usually the first major of the year and in 2020 will be the last major of the year.
