Shane BaconTommy Fleetwood is a top contender to win the US Open at Shinnecock Hills
I think Tommy Fleetwood, if he ever gets a major, it's gonna be a US open just with the way he plays. So I love Tommy this week. I think Tommy is near the top of my board in terms of who I think is gonna win this thing. He didn't play great on Sunday in Canada. I don't think that matters. I think he's found something with the ball striking.

Big CatJalen Brunson is the current number one player in the NBA
I rank Jalen Brunson one. That's the whole point of winning a championship, is you get to spend an entire off season and saying your guy's number one. The whole point of winning a title is that then the next four months you get to just say, my guy, my best guy is the best guy in the whole league.
HankI would not trade Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown for Giannis Antetokounmpo
[Big Cat: Do you want Giannis, answer the question, yes or no?] No. We won a championship with Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum. Why would we give that up?
Big CatThe Knicks would not have won the NBA title without Tom Thibodeau
Listen, I know there's people who've been like, oh yeah, Tibs, like Biggest Loser. They don't win this without Tibs. I really believe that. Tibs inherited a godawful Knicks team and franchise and made them winners pretty quickly and made them competent. And then Mike Brown obviously took him over the top, but the guy before the guy I think still has some importance.

He uses these single length irons... Nobody's using single length irons except Bryson. I just think he's gotta get away from that and at least try something different with the irons. 'cause the iron play is just not good enough right now to win major championships.
Shane BaconViktor Hovland will win the 2026 Open Championship
My pick is gonna be Victor Hovland... I just like the way Victor's played. Got the win over Scotty Scheffler. That's gotta help the confidence... I think Victor Hovland has found something. He's the guy that rides the confidence wave as well. I think Hovland's the open champion.
Shane BaconWyndham Clark is 'free money' for a top 20 finish at the 2026 Open Championship.
Wyndham is a top 10 bet right now. Wyndham is a top 10 bet everywhere. Like everywhere he plays, top 10, very confident... I just think if you're looking at numbers, look at Wyndham Clark and you see a decent number on a top 10, top 20 bet. I think it's kind of free money right now with Wyndham Clark.
