The Brenden Aaronson Weston McKennie golf story was the funniest highlight of a 17-minute interview that Men in Blazers did with the Leeds duo and Fulham’s American pair of Tim Ream and Antonee Robinson.
Leeds United and Fulham are America’s favorite Premier League teams as both have multiple U.S. players on the roster. This Saturday the two clubs face off, brutally early at 7:30 a.m. ET, and fans got to see a four-player interview with the Americans.
During the interview Aaronson was asked if he’d ever seen McKennie lost for words. Then came the golf story.

Imagine if you were one of Aaronson’s friends and every time you looked behind yourself it was just a lonely McKennie playing golf. Hilarious.
Men in Blazers posted the full interview on YouTube. If I know people on the internet well enough then I bet you might feel too lazy to sit through 17 whole minutes of content.
To make things easier I’ve added timestamps of some of the bigger topics they discuss if you just want to skim through the video.
