The PGA Championship gave us a moment worth holding onto. Aaron Rai, a 31-year-old Englishman whose dad kept him out of the junior comparison machine, outplayed golf's biggest names to win his first major. Our team was at Aronimink asking Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele, and Collin Morikawa what they'd tell young golfers and their parents — and Jon Gordon joined Greg to talk about the one regret almost every sports parent eventually carries.
