Gary Williams opens Wednesday's 5 Clubs on Golf Channel and PGA Tour Radio, Channel 92 on SiriusXM, presented by Sentry Insurance, with the standings and scenarios heading into the BMW Championship at Bellerive Country Club. He runs through the players fighting to reach East Lake, from J.J. Spaun's comfortable position at 21 to the Hail Mary math facing players like Michael Brennan, Matt McCarty and Ryo Hisatsune in the 45 to 50 range. Gary then spends time on the remarkable parallel careers of Adam Scott and Justin Rose, two 46 year old major champions born two weeks apart in 1980 whose win totals, earnings and career arcs mirror each other almost exactly.Sean Zak of Golf Magazine and golf.com joins Gary from Indianapolis to discuss the chaotic final week of LIV Golf's 2026 season. Zak details unpaid vendors, mounting lawsuits and signs pointing toward bankruptcy, and traces the collapse of merger talks between the PGA Tour and the Public Investment Fund back to a tense meeting involving Jay Monahan and Yasir Al-Rumayyan. The conversation turns to Jon Rahm's contract situation and why January 2027 may be the moment his path becomes clear, Bryson DeChambeau's continued commitment to building his own golf spectacle, and the DP World Tour's rising position as a landing spot for players looking to return to the traditional game. Zak and Gary close by putting Scottie Scheffler's five year run in context, from his breakout Phoenix win in 2022 to the gap he has now opened over the rest of the world ranking.Keith Stewart of Read the Line breaks down Bellerive Country Club ahead of the BMW Championship, describing a Rees Jones redesign with wide Zoysia fairways, sectioned green complexes and soft conditions following rain. Stewart identifies total driving and proximity from 175 yards and beyond as the keys to the week, and singles out Sam Burns and Si-Woo Kim as players overdue for a win after standout seasons. He and Gary also update the season-long picks standings, with Gil Hanse, Brendon De Jong and Jay Bilas all weighing in ahead of the final push toward East Lake.The episode wraps with Dogs of the Week, featuring golf course companions from Piners Country Club, Watami Golf and Country Club, Prospector Golf Course and Wind Dance Golf Club, and closes with a note on Bellerive's history and former Augusta National chairman Hord Hardin's eleven club championships there.Subscribe to 5 Clubs for more conversations and analysis from across the world of golf.

Smylie Kaufman is back home after broadcasting the U.S. Amateur at Merion, and he and Charlie Hulme spend the front half of the show breaking down the course — its unusual routing, the brutal 14-18 closing stretch, the debate over how much green-complex slope can survive modern speeds, and why it's such a compelling preview for the 2030 U.S. Open there. Jack Whaley beat Jay Leng Jr. for the title, with Ryder Cowan and Carter Loflin standing out as names to know.From there, the guys run their favorite trees in golf — a loose, hilarious countdown through Merion, Pebble Beach, The Renaissance Club, Cypress Point, TPC Sawgrass, Panmure (where Ben Hogan prepped for the 1953 Open), Prairie Dunes, Seminole, Monterey Peninsula, and the tree at Augusta National.Plus: the case for Scottie Scheffler as the clear Player of the Year after his 8-shot win at TPC Southwind, what the PGA Tour's new playoff points structure means for players fighting to stay inside the top 50, and the fallout from Jon Rahm's reported LIV Golf exit — including what it means for the DP World Tour, the Challenger Series, and the sport's shifting global landscape heading into 2027.Don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, and follow us on socials @thesmylieshow!Chapters0:00 Intro & catch-up: fresh off the U.S. Amateur at Merion2:59 Merion's unique routing and standout holes7:47 Tangent: the Bobby Jones cinematic universe11:33 Merion's brutal closing stretch and the 17th green debate12:49 Setting up Merion for a 2030 U.S. Open18:46 The story behind Merion's wicker-basket logo22:27 Merion trivia: director-of-golf tenure & clubhouse details27:05 Best trees in golf: the debate begins (Merion's 8th)29:03 Pebble Beach's 18th hole cypress31:58 The Renaissance Club's 11th hole33:16 Cypress Point: Walker Cup picnics & the 17th tree36:47 TPC Sawgrass's tree-lined holes38:29 Panmure: where Hogan prepped for the 1953 Open40:08 Prairie Dunes' "The Shoot" at 1542:15 Seminole's 16th hole palms43:42 Monterey Peninsula's 11th hole45:54 The Tree at Augusta National & honorable mentions48:10 U.S. Amateur standouts: Ryder Cowan & Carter Loflin50:26 The case for Scottie Scheffler as Player of the Year59:07 PGA Tour playoff points shakeup & the scramble for top 501:04:41 Jon Rahm, LIV Golf, and the DP World Tour's shifting landscape1:19:11 Sign-off: Bob McIntyre preview, Ryder Cup to the South & JT's Firestone flashback#golf #pgatour #smylieshow #scottiescheffler #Merion

This week we are joined by the Sports Field Manager at Vanderbilt University, Adam Adkins!Episode in a Glance:In this episode of The Hitstreak, I sit down with Adam Adkins, the Sports Field Manager at Vanderbilt University and a guy I have known for 30 years. Adam and a team of five or six are responsible for nearly every varsity athletic surface on campus, roughly 24 acres with 11 and a half of that natural turf, and the standard never moves no matter what the weather does. We get into how my own dad taught a five foot twelve year old left hander to pitch, the summer Adam grew from five foot four to six foot two, the wake up call of an SEC locker room, and the phone call that talked him into an Augusta National internship he was ready to turn down. Plus what he looks for on a resume, why most people stop evolving the day school ends, the morning someone sprayed weedkiller on greens worth millions, and why you will never outlive your own self image.Key Points:- Trust the process only works once you have stacked enough wins that you would be a fool not to.- Somebody has to see it in you first, and then have the patience to stay with you.- Consistency is the whole job. The weather changes, the surface does not.- Culture starts at recruiting. Hire like minded people and it stops being a job.- You can plan for a year and something will still go wrong, so hire for how people adapt.- Personal development stops being automatic the day you leave school. After that it is a choice.- A degree without a way to apply it is a skill you cannot monetize.- Getting out of your comfort zone is how you find out what you actually love.- The more you learn, the faster you admit somebody else knows more than you.- Attention to detail can be explained to you, but you do not understand it until it is yours to own.About our guest:Adam Adkins is the Sports Field Manager at Vanderbilt University, where he and his team look after nearly every varsity athletic surface on campus, roughly 24 acres of playing surface with 11 and a half acres of natural turf. Raised in middle Tennessee, he learned to pitch as a five foot twelve year old left hander under Mickey Hiter, Travis Copley and Lin Pilgrim, grew from five foot four to six foot two the summer before his junior year, and capped his high school career with a state championship before heading to the University of Tennessee, where he pitched and studied turf grass management.An internship at Augusta National that he nearly declined pulled him toward golf, and he spent 14 years as a golf course superintendent across middle Tennessee, starting at Vanderbilt Legends out of college. He returned to the sports side at Vanderbilt roughly two years ago. He credits Hall of Fame superintendent Joe Kennedy with giving him his start, and says being around coaches like Tim Corbin and Clark Lea is the part of the job he would never trade.Follow and contact:Instagram: @Adkins31Subscribe to Nick's top-rated podcast The Hitstreak on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/NickHiterFollow and Rate us on Spotify: https://spotify.com/NickHiterFollow and Rate us on Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/NickHiterFollow and Rate us on iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/NickHiter

Ever wonder what it's like to walk the hallowed grounds of Augusta National alongside legends like Byron Nelson? In our Season 19 finale, host Colin Weston sits down with the incomparable Jimmy Roberts - sports broadcasting icon, master storyteller, and co-founder of Big Swing Media - for a conversation that spans the evolution of golf media and the $250 billion annual business of golf. We To learn how a cold call to ABC's Wide World of Sports launched a four-decade broadcasting career that would lead to earning 16 Emmy Awards. From his first nervous steps at the 1991 Masters to launching a premium media company dedicated to golf's business landscape, Jimmy shares the lessons learned from a career that's covered every major sporting event on the planet. Whether you're an aspiring broadcaster, a golf industry professional, or simply someone who loves a great story, this episode is your backstage pass to one of sport's most respected voices. Three key takeaways that you'll discover: ✅ The Power of Curiosity Over Stats Jimmy reveals that his entire career was built not on memorizing statistics, but on genuine curiosity about people. His advice? "God gave us two ears and one mouth" so listen more because everyone has a story worth telling. ✅ Golf is a $250 Billion/year Global Ecosystem With more golf courses in America than McDonald's restaurants and 130 million "golf engaged" Americans, Jimmy explains why he and co-founder Fred Bucher launched Big Swing Media to cover the business side of the game that's been largely overlooked. ✅ Storytelling is About Making People Care From his days at ABC Sports learning from legendary producer Roone Arledge, Jimmy shares the foundational principle of great storytelling: educate your audience and give them a reason to connect emotionally with the subjects you cover. Inspiring Quotes from Jimmy Roberts: "Everybody's got a story. The heart of storytelling is to educate people and give them a reason to care. Give them a reason to identify, give them a reason to root." "If there was such a thing as YouTube back then, I'd probably be either waiting tables or selling insurance right now because there'd be evidence of my incompetence. I was really fortunate to learn on the job and make a lot of mistakes in obscurity." "We're not broadcasters, we're narrowcasters. We've identified our little lane where there's a lot of white space, and we're colouring in some of the lines." Episode Chapters 00:00 - Introduction Colin sets the stage for this special Season 19 finale conversation with broadcasting legend Jimmy Roberts. 01:01 - The Origin Story Jimmy shares his golf journey - from parents who introduced him to the game to maintaining a "comfortable somewhere in the 80s" handicap. He reveals the three things that make golf truly special: beautiful places, connection with people, and the joy of playing the game for a lifetime. 03:43 - The Breakthrough Moment The remarkable story of how a cold call to ABC's Wide World of Sports at age 18 launched a legendary career. Jimmy recounts pestering legendary producer Ned Steckle and landing his first gig covering the 1976 NCAA lacrosse championship. 08:40 - Finding Golf Why Jimmy strategically "planted a flag" in golf coverage at ESPN in the early 1990s - and how Tiger Woods' arrival proved to be the perfect timing that turbocharged Jimmy's storytelling career. 10:02 - First Masters Memories Jimmy's unforgettable 1991 Masters experience: showing up overwhelmed, finding comfort with Dave Marr, and the surreal moment Byron Nelson pretended to know him. "There was no way he had any idea who I was, but that's more a story about who Dave Marr was." 12:49 - Playing Augusta National Insider details on the Monday media lottery, playing the course, and what television doesn't capture - especially the dramatic elevation changes and the true challenge of those legendary greens. 16:05 - Augusta's Digital Innovation How the Masters leads the industry by asking "how do we make this the best it can be?" rather than "how much does it cost?" Jimmy shares insights on working with Augusta's digital committee, chaired by Comcast's Brian Roberts. 16:42 - The Art of Storytelling Jimmy's approach to journalism: be curious, ask more questions than you answer, and always remember that "everybody's got a story." He traces the lineage of "up close and personal" features to Roone Arledge's Olympic coverage. 19:28 - Big Swing Media Origins The founding story of Jimmy's digital media company, sparked by the surprising fact that there are more golf courses in America than McDonald's restaurants - and a $250 billion annual global industry with virtually no dedicated media coverage. 21:51 - Celebrity Golf and Growth Jimmy discusses guests like Steph Curry, Jack Nicklaus, and Delta CEO Ed Bastian. He shares insights on why celebrity events like the American Century Championship resonate. "They're like us. We all share this game." 29:03 - The Business of Golf How Big Swing Media targets the "CEO hour" on Golf Channel, reaching the 450 of 500 Fortune 500 CEOs who play golf. The focus on leadership, culture, and the business side of the game. 34:15 - Diversity and the Future The fastest-growing golf segments: young women and people of colour. Jimmy highlights stories like Five Iron Golf co-founder Nora Dunn and Stanford women's golf coach Anne Walker, whose program has won three of the last five national championships. 38:23 - Where to Find Jimmy Big Swing Media's footprint: The Big Swing podcast on YouTube, the Golf Channel show (Tuesdays at 7 AM ET), and the Golf Business Intelligence Brief newsletter twice weekly.

I have to say I have been surprised at just how good Manchester Golf Club is this week for English Women's Open on LET Access. I was pleased to be joined by American pro Katherine Schuster who is 100 percent embracing the challenge of pro life in Europe this season as she is currently 29th on LET Access Series Order of Merit standings after 6 events into her rookie season on tour.  Katherine is from Outer Banks area of North Carolina, USA and started the game out at age of 10 after watching Drive, Chip and Putt competition at Augusta National which got her hooked instantly. Katherine has had the pleasure of taking the drive down Magnolia Lane at Augusta 4 times an experience that never gets old. She would go to Clemson University before trying to win tour card at Q School in Morocco. We also find out more about Katherine as a person including that she has attempted to achieve her aviation license!  I was also joined be podcast guest and one of the legends in 2016 Olympian, 2x Symetra Tour winner and last year's Santander Golf Tour Avila champion Ale Llaneza in what was a 2nd run after our walk and talk chat yesterday was directly affected with the blowing wind.

The best two weeks in golf are here! According to Lewis, at least. Michael's less convinced… but then again, he's played Augusta National.   Before next week's Open Championship at Royal Birkdale, we've got the Scottish Open at The Renaissance, where an exceptional field will attempt to wrestle the title from Chris Gotterup.   But should the event start moving around the country again? Just one of the many questions the guys tackle.   Elsewhere, there's some chat around the most infamous lasagne in golf, Peter Alliss' jaw-dropping birth, Rory McIlroy's unexpected movie cameo, and much more besides.   Tune-in now!   — SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTERS!   Get all the golf info and opinions you need delivered straight to your inbox.

On this episode of the Try That in a Small Town Podcast, the guys start with listener Q&A and end up deep in the realities of life as working Nashville pros. They break down why most artists use session bands instead of their road bands in the studio, what makes a truly great studio player, and how songs like “Try That in a Small Town,” “All-American Girl,” and other hits actually came together. You'll hear stories about mentoring young musicians in Nashville, navigating confidence and doubt in the early Aldean days, and how a raw, slightly “on the edge” sound helped define a new lane in country. The crew also vents about crosswalk etiquette, insane roundabouts on Demonbreun, messy public bathrooms, and a wild “dipshit of the week” segment that includes a pharmacist trading meds for sex and Neil's unapologetically spicy take on women joining Augusta National. Along the way, they celebrate “Try That in a Small Town” going platinum, shout out John Edwards finally getting some long-overdue recognition, and brag on Neil's wife and her company for co-designing the new “Welcome to Tennessee” signs across the state.

We dive into preparing a player for The Masters, practice rounds, course strategy, what surprised him most about Augusta, and the lessons learned from being around the world's best players.

Nobody knows Shinnecock like Jimmy Dunne. A South Shore Long Island kid who caddied and painted houses in the summers, Dunne played Shinnecock at 16 after landing a painting job at a member's house in Southampton. He walked off the 18th convinced it was the greatest golf course in the world. Now the president of Seminole GC and a member at Augusta National, Pine Valley, and Cypress Point, he still feels that way. On this episode of the TGJ Podcast, Tom Coyne joins Dunne in his Southampton golf shrine to share what he loves about Shinnecock and preview the U.S. Open. Dunne also discusses his legendary 63 at Shinnecock, how memorizing every caddie's name at Augusta became a dealmaker's cheat code, and what it was like helping steer the PGA Tour through its war with LIV. It's a rare look at one of the world's most iconic grounds through the eyes of someone who's played them all.The Golfer's Journal and this podcast are made possible by reader support.

Send us Fan MailSome people play golf for fun.

Gary Williams opens this episode of 5 Clubs by breaking down the value and intrigue surrounding Jordan Spieth as he continues searching for a return to contention on the PGA TOUR.

In today's episode, we're sitting down with Justin Klemballa, the coach behind the Breaking Bogey program and one of the sharpest voices in golf instruction, to talk through his recent trip to the Masters at Augusta National. This was his first time back inside the gates in 16 years.Justin walks us through what it's actually like to spend a week at Augusta: the patron experience that no other venue in sports gets right, the $3 pimento cheese sandwiches, the free parking on acres of club-owned land, and the traditions that make the Masters feel like a world of its own. We also break down the moment that defined Rory McIlroy's career Grand Slam — the slice into the trees on 15 and the birdie that followed — and what his comeback tells us about identity, self-belief, and the stories we let run on the first tee.From there, Justin gets into the framework he uses with every Breaking Bogey student: the PAR Method; three letters that change how you practice and how you score. He shares the Tin Cup tournament story that taught him to choose what he remembers, the 25/75 short-game ratio that flips most amateurs' practice on its head, and the $4 foot-powder trick that exposes more swing flaws than any video lesson.Justin's Previous Episodes: 136.

Happy National Boston Marathon Day! We kick off the episode with some very realistic running motivation, reminding everyone that making it to the start line with your bodily fluids sorted out is half the battle, and taking a trip to the medical tent just means you get a cooler story. We recount Erin's brutal weekend "marathon" hike up Pulpit Rock, which featured Dan hiking in flip flops and eventually having to shove a 40 pound, heavily breathing Bucky the pug into his backpack. Erin also gives a week two update on her "Pull-Up Revolution," celebrating the awakening of her "sleeper cell muscles". Erin then spirals over her invite to the Dick's Sporting Goods Varsity Team brand trip in Tampa, specifically stressing over how to dress "camera ready" without looking like she consulted ChatPPP for fashion advice.In niche internet and pop culture news, we cover the genius behind the "Two Cute Labs" (Stink and Bink) who went viral for selling "your ad here" space on their backs. We also discuss the growing "Jason Kelce fatigue" after his appearance at The Masters frustrated traditionalists, and debate the so called decorum decline involving college bros flipping off cameras outside Augusta National.In sports, we break down two disqualifications: Matt Choi getting DQ'd from an Ironman for drafting (and missing the penalty tent because he skipped orientation), and the shocking overturning of a Pokémon Go Regional Championship simply because the winner put his headphones down too forcefully.We then present our very serious, hard hitting journalism segment: an interview with Max Martin, the CEO of the Enhanced Games! We debrief our chat with him, discussing the $1 million world record prizes, the fascinating concept of building a digital first stadium in just four weeks, and how athletes are utilizing FDA approved testing and doctors to compete safely. Finally, we wrap up with a heartwarming "No Bad, No Sad" story about King Randall's program, where he takes young men to the grocery store to teach them essential life skills like picking produce, doing laundry, and speaking with eye contact.

This is the Live Call-in Show from this past Sunday night, Aprill 12, 2026!  Mike and Scott were back together for another BOGP Open Line!  Taking a cue from The Masters and Augusta National where cell phones are banned from the golf course to "enhance the live experience", we had a discussion if you would get behind an overall ban on live-streaming in the Disney parks.  Where would you fall?  Also, we had a great call about bus transportation at the Deluxe Resorts vs. Value Resorts.  We also talked some Springtime Surprise plans, more great floors around Walt Disney World and more!  Come join us in the BOGP Clubhouse this week at www.beourguestpodcast.com/discord.  Please visit our website at www.beourguestpodcast.com.  Thank you so much for your support of our podcast!

Following Rory McIlroy's repeat at Augusta National, Andy Johnson is joined by 2008 Masters champion and CBS lead analyst Trevor Immelman to recap the 2026 Masters Tournament. Andy and Trevor discuss McIlroy's sixth major championship victory and the path that led him to just the fourth back-to-back win at the Masters. They also highlight a runner-up finish from World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and how a middling Friday round likely prevented him from winning a third green jacket. The two touch on other top contenders from the week such as Cameron Young, Justin Rose, and Sam Burns before briefly looking ahead to next month's PGA Championship at Aronimink.

Nobody covers The Masters and yesterday's box scores quite like MNST!! Rory McIlroy had to wait more than a decade to win the Masters and complete the career Grand Slam.He had to wait only a year to take home a second green jacket.After squandering a record six-stroke lead in Saturday's third round, McIlroy briefly lost the lead again Sunday before taking control on the second nine at Augusta National to become the first back-to-back Masters champion since Tiger Woods in 2001-02 and the fourth overall (Jack Nicklaus, Nick Faldo).A day after his 1-over 73 opened the door for a handful of golfers, McIlroy posted a 71 despite a bogey on the 18th to win by one stroke at 12-under 276.The MN Twins have won six of their last 7See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Andy and Brendan (joined by KVV, Joseph, and PJ) are bouncing after another incredible Masters finish that had Rory McIlroy winning another green jacket. They debrief on a full day chasing a manic leaderboard with Rory, Cameron Young, Justin Rose, Scottie Scheffler, and more throwing their hat in the ring to win on a firm Augusta National setup. They discuss Rory's legacy now with six majors, his claim to the best European golfer of all time, and what comes next on the resume building. They also discuss all the challengers and dispense with the preposterous notion that Augusta went soft with the setup. LIV Golf's week is given a grade, with some hollering about Sergio Garcia's conduct and the warning he received from a green jacket. They discuss the narrative that the Masters lost some of its identity with the merch haul movement and some of the hijinks around the Par 3 contest. Lastly, they finish with some big picture thoughts on the majors the rest of the year and a note of thanks for listening.

What a day for Cameron Young (-11)! He shoots a third round 65 to rocket up the leaderboard and tie Rory McIlroy (-11) at the top. Sam Burns (-10) sits in solo third, Shane Lowry (-9) in fourth, and Jason Day (-8) and Justin Rose (-8) rounding out the Top 5.

Andy and Brendan load in for an all-time round of Contender or Pretender as we head to the final round of the 2026 Masters. They discuss Rory McIlroy losing his six-shot lead with haste, as a host of talented chasers came and went at him on the leaderboard on Saturday, none more so than Cameron Young, much to PJ Clark's delight. They run through the entire board, including sheriff of the fair police Scottie Scheffler, and debate who is game for Sunday. Should we be ringing alarm bells on Rory after the way he hit it in the third round? There is also some lengthy and emotional discussion about the setup of the golf course and the critique that Augusta National went too soft. They rip through some Storylines No One is Talking About for one final night before closing it out with an amusing story from under the tree and their picks to win it all on Sunday.

What a day for Rory McIlroy (-12). He jumps out to a six-shot lead over Sam Burns (-6) and P. Reed (-6) while Shane Lowry (-5), Tommy Fleetwood (-5), and Justin Rose (-5) sit at T4.

Andy and Brendan are buzzing after a Friday sprint to the finish from Rory McIlroy, who set history with the largest 36-hole lead by making birdies in six of his last seven holes. They discuss the finish, how he's elevated his game and brain at Augusta, a place that seems ready to give him it all now, and how far back is too far back with this margin. They run through the list of very game chasers and who might pose a problem should he stumble. Also discussed is the notion of Augusta going “soft” with the setup with greens that were less firm than the opening round on Thursday. Is the 13th hole back? They analyze a full day of momentous decisions and some water balls, including Scottie Scheffler, who seems stuck in neutral. They have a dose of shame to give out for the missed cut crew, including Bryson DeChambeau, who went out in a blaze of ignominy with a triple bogey 18th hole to tumble below the cut line. The notion of LIV preparing Bryson, Rahm, and others for major championship golf is also put to the test, with some quotes from the past coming back to haunt. They close it with some rapid awards from the day and several Storylines No One Is Talking About as this Masters goes to the weekend.

Sam Burns (-5) and defending Masters Champion Rory McIlroy (-5) lead after Round 1 at Augusta National Golf Club. The trio of TM Rose (-3), Kurt Kitayama (-3), and Patrick Reed (-3) all sit T3. We break down all of the day's events: Rory & Bermuda Burns rounds, P.Reed & Scottie, and stinky Bryson and Rahm.

After a long travel day, there's still plenty of excitement for this year's Masters as each shares what they're looking forward to the most this week. Brendan suggests that a certain Guy may be the only player with enough juice to really energize the crowd late on Sunday, while Andy is just waiting to hear Joseph LaMagna's first impressions of Augusta National. Before all of that, they recap the Valero Texas Open, where J.J. Spaun officially became the King of Texas with his second win at the event. Spaun's comeback win in rough weather marks his first since last year's U.S. Open, with Brendan suggesting he may be "The Rain King." Andy runs down the list of "Worst Major Winners This Decade (or Century)" and applauds Spaun for further removing himself from this list. He then launches into a crusade against Bob MacIntyre's caddie for using an iPhone to find the wind direction on the 72nd hole with a chance to make a playoff or even win the tournament. Asterisk Talley had a historic collapse at Augusta National on Saturday during the final round of the ANWA, clearing the way for Maria Jose Marin to win perhaps the biggest event in women's golf. More results follow, with Andy and Brendan discussing a runaway with for Lauren Coughlin at Shadow Creek and an opera singer's big week on the Korn Ferry Tour. After wrapping up with yet another Masters Fact of the Day, the two announce that they will be LIVE on the Fried Egg Golf YouTube channel for the 2026 Masters preview episode at 3:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday, April 7th.

Welcome back to Golf's Preeminent Victory Monday Podcast! Andy and Brendan went LIVE on YouTube for this recording, with Brendan calling it a Victory Monday for everyone in the golf world after Gary Woodland's win in Houston. Andy is celebrating a Victory Monday for other reasons as the Fighting Illini are Final Four bound for the first time in 21 years. After some technical hiccups and debate about whether Andy is headed to Indianapolis ahead of the Masters, the two recap an emotional win for Gary Woodland at the Texas Children's Houston Open. The 2019 U.S. Open winner blitzed the field, winning by five shots at the conclusion of Sunday's round and setting the new scoring record for the tournament. Brendan declares Woodland's win the "Story of the Year" given the context surrounding his struggles with PTSD following brain surgery. Andy gives Woodland praise for going public with his diagnosis and commends him on helping not only himself but others in doing so. The two also discuss standout performances from Min Woo Lee, Johnny Keefer, Chris Gotterup, and Sudarshan Yellamaraju. Brendan shares some Substantiated Rumors from the Indian Open at DLF, where it seems as if the DP World Tour may be faking weather reports in order to ensure a fair course setup. Alex Fitzpatrick secured his first win on the DP World Tour, joining his brother, Matt, in the winner's circle following last week's Valspar Championship. In other results, the LPGA has its first repeat winner of 2026, Stew Cink is coming for a playing Ryder Cup captaincy, and the "Davis Zone" has hit the Korn Ferry Tour. Things wrap up with some news about the new player facilities at Augusta National and a brief bit of Tiger Woods discussion as more comes out about Friday's car accident and his ensuing arrest for DUI.
