This recording was delayed until Monday morning because life is better with Andy by Brendan's side! Andy's in the dumps following the Illini's loss to Kentucky in the Round of 32, but his spirits were lifted by Tiger Woods hard-launching his relationship with Vanessa Trump on Sunday night. Brendan and Andy unpack all aspects of Tiger's post, from the bizarre caption to the posed photos prominently featuring the Sun Day Red logo. After a quick spin through Vanessa Trump's Wikipedia page, the two move on to the golf, where a "lost" Viktor Hovland ran down Justin Thomas to win the Valspar. Brendan is fired up about how great the PGA Tour's Florida Swing was and imagines Luke Donald is thrilled with back-to-back wins from European Ryder Cup stalwarts. Andy shares some appreciation for Viktor Hovland's openness with the media when discussing his struggles and compares how Hovland and JT played the final few holes down the stretch in different ways. It was a week of viral moments - Billy Boy showed off some ambidextrousness, making a birdie after hitting his approach left-handed, Adam Hadwin broke a sprinkler with a club slam, and Patton Kizzire perfected the "putter punt." Elsewhere in golf, Dick Mansell won on the DP World Tour, the Sunshine Tour is back in the Coetzee Zone, and Miguel Angel Jimenez secured his second Champions Tour win of the 2025 season in California. There's also plenty of chatter about the PGA Tour's DMCA habits, which are back and possibly better than ever! Things wrap up with some March Madness talk following Andy and PJ's trips to their respective regional sites to watch their teams lose in the second round.
This week on The Sports Agents...From sneaking a disguised Novak Djokovic into a team talk, to lessons from Ben Stokes and the LIV/PGA divide, we chatted to European Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald for an exclusive interview (02:15). One day Jim Ratcliffe said Manchester United were on track to be 'bust by Christmas', and the next they announced plans for a £2bn stadium... so we asked Professor of Football Finance at the University of Liverpool, Kieran Maguire, how that makes sense (08:45). Michael Jordan, Usain Bolt, Sarah Storey... lots of famous sportspeople have tried switching sports. We got into what that's like with double Olympic champion Jade Jones, who's swapping taekwondo for boxing. We also chatted to Usain Bolt's football coach, Mike Mulvey (16:30). And comedian Adam Hills chatted to us about his new role as President of the Rugby Football league, which seems to involve a big gold chain, hearing stories from his Ukrainian counterpart and spending his spare time at the Para-Standing Tennis World Championships (21:30).

Drew Stoltz of Subpar and Brendan Porath of The Fried Egg joined us today. Stoltz talked about a number of the changes that took place at this year's WM Phoenix Open, how the younger generation is so skilled and ready to win and how Jordan Spieth can energize a crowd. Porath also talked about what Spieth brings to the table for the PGA Tour as well as forecasting the season ahead for Tiger Woods and what would be considered successful. Porath also talked about how deep the European Ryder Cup team as Thomas Detry picked up his first win at the WM.
Matt Kendrick, the CEO of Good Good Golf joined us today to talk about the rise of digital platform, their desire to be a top 5 brand in golf, how the personalities on their team come together, their recent investment in LAGC of TGL, the event they are hosting on Golf Channel, the idea that golfers are building their individual brands and much more.The boys from The Wagyu Filet showed joined us live in studio to talk about Rory Milroy's weekend at Pebble Beach and his new approach, if Scottie Scheffler has missed a beat coming off his 2024 season and injury, the depth that the European Ryder Cup team is building and the pros and cons of the Waste Management in Phoenix this week.
Andy and Brendan went live on YouTube late Sunday night to recap Rory McIlroy's win at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am, his 27th career victory on the PGA Tour. They dive into what was a quality weekend of golf on the PGA Tour, providing a much-needed boost to the product after a sleepy start to the season. The two unpack Rory's dominating performance driving the ball, including the ridiculous line he took on the 14th hole which lead him to an eagle on Sunday to practically seal his win. Andy and Brendan also compliment the CBS broadcast, which elevated the event even more than its "signature" status. They discuss what turned out to be a packed European Ryder Cup leaderboard, with strong performances from Shane Lowry, Justin Rose, and Sepp Straka. TGL superstar Tom Kim was also a factor, finishing in a tie for seventh after being put on the clock for slow play (again). In addition to Rory, Scottie Scheffler also made his first start of 2025, finishing in a tie for ninth. After wrapping up with more discussion about why venues matter on the PGA Tour, Andy and Brendan turn their attention to perhaps their favorite venue, DLF. Ollie Schniederjans won for the first time in nine years, blowing out a LIV-heavy field in India. Andy shares some intel from someone who's played DLF about the course and why Bryson was perhaps not the biggest fan of the greens there. A Lim Kim won the LPGA's Tournament of Champions, which ended right in the coverage gap for Pebble Beach, outlasting a late charge by Nelly Korda on Sunday. In golf news from the weekend, Brendan shares a letter written by Charley Hoffman that was shared with PGA Tour members on Sunday night. Hoffman is suggesting that top players need to show their support for the Tour by playing in more events, despite taking time off to play overseas or in TGL matches on Mondays and Tuesday nights. To wrap this episode up, Andy, Brendan, and PJ react to the Luka Doncic trade in an NBA-focused Sports Minute.
On this week's edition of the podcast, Ronan and Mark talk through the Dubai Desert Classic, the performances of the Irish and a brilliant week for European Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald as Tyrrell Hatton and Sepp Straka secured big wins on both tours. Also we have a chat with newly minted Ladies European Tour professional Canice Screene as the 23-year-old prepares to embark on her maiden season in the paid ranks. Canice, a London native, represented Ireland at amateur level and won the Irish Women's Close last year before earning some LET status at Q-School.
Martin and Des look at the weekends results which bode well for the European Ryder Cup team later in the year, albeit there are also some concerns surrounding two key players from the winning 2023 team. Martin chats with two local Foggies about their predictions for the major season and whether they agree with the choices made by the ITFOG "experts" from the last episode. The boys cover some topical stories before revealing a surprisingly positive ranking in a recently published Top 100 Golf Podcasts list.Interact with the podcast via X @ITFOG_podcast, Instagram @ITFOG or BlueSky @ITFOG-podcast.

While “Dodo” offers player-specific insights to his stable of golfers (which now stretches to some three dozen across the PGA Tour, DP World Tour and beyond), this conversation is chock-full of nuggets for the everyday golfer. If you subscribe to axioms like “keep it below the hole” and “find the right side of the fairway,” get ready to challenge your thinking.

European Ryder Cup hero and lifelong Evertonian, Tommy Fleetwood, was at Goodison Park recently for the game against Manchester City. He took the gold trophy, won by Europe against the USA in Rome in the autumn, onto the pitch before the game to thunderous applause from the fans. Before he walked up the tunnel, Fleetwood sat down with Graham Stuart for a quick chat about his Ryder Cup success and his love for the Blues. He also explained how his concentration on the course wavered during one of the majors – because Everton were losing against Crystal Palace in a must-win relegation clash in May 2022! “We were in the third-to-last group in the US PGA so we had a chance of winning it, but we had to keep track of the (football) scores at the same time. We'd played two or three holes and Everton were 2-0 down and then on the fifth or sixth tee we heard that we'd gone 3-2 up. We could concentrate on the major after that!” Fleetwood also compares vital putts to penalty-kicks, reveals his envy that footballers get that ‘team-spirit' feeling every week, and recalls the time that Diamond had to curtail his viewing of a round in Orlando after picking up an injury!

Because let's face it, golfers are such hotties, amirite?
Joe Benigno is going to the Jets/Chiefs game with the Winters Brothers. Joe can turn on you like the tiger did on Siegfried and Roy. We also talked about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce and Gio said the best thing for a relationship is not being able to see each other so often. Gio also said he cannot cheat on her or the Swifties will go after him. Usher is doing the halftime show for the Super Bowl. Gio was disappointed because he wanted something bigger. Jerry returns for an update and has audio from Chandler Jones of the Raiders who is really in crisis mode. Hopefully he gets the help he needs. The Lions beat the Packers and Jerry has some play by play sound. Jordan Love said not to blame the offensive line, as he is not executing. Dan Campbell talked about his daily coffee routine. Jets WR Mecole Hardman said he'll be ready when they call his number. Sean McDermott talked about the upcoming game against the Dolphins. Bill Belichick was asked to compare Micah Parsons vs Lawrence Taylor. Zeke Elliott is going back to Dallas as a Patriot. Matt Olson of the Braves hit his 54th HR. Evan wonders how the Braves have 60 more HRs than the next team. Gio said the European Ryder Cup team is filled with ugly guys. In the final segment of the hour, we found out the toll for the GW Bridge for tractor trailers is $100. Crazy.
Hour 1 The Jets and Chiefs play Sunday night and all people seem to care about is whether Taylor Swift will be at the game. Boomer said the people he talked to said there is no confirmation that she will be there. Boomer is very into the Taylor Swift angle. Last night the Lions steamrolled the Packers at Lambeau Field. Gio said we need Zach Wilson to just be a C+. We are not asking him to be Patrick Mahomes. Gio thinks Boomer is babying Zach Wilson: ‘You're putting Zach Wilson's mouth up to your teat'. Jerry is here for his first update but first Gio said Evan Roberts doesn't get enough credit for being dumb. He can't even say, ‘cuisine'. Jerry starts with audio from the Lions win over the Packers last night, 34-20. Chiefs LB Willie Gay said the Jets look like a team that wants to run the ball and they are in panic mode. Bryce Harper got thrown out after Angel Hernandez called him out on a check swing. In the final segment of the hour, a caller thinks the Jets will win this game just to screw all of us who are betting against them. Hour 2 The game of the week will be the Dolphins at the Bills. Boomer expects a wild scene up there in Buffalo. Gio is all in on the Dolphins, it feels like their year. Boomer said it' s tough to play in Buffalo. We checked the weather and it's supposed to be 75 and sunny. Gio said there was something in the air yesterday between Sal and BT. Jerry returns for an update but first Gio said Direct TV is terrible when it rains. Jerry said to use the app. Gio was told he is not allowed to hang pictures in his office because it's a union job. Jerry starts with audio from last night's Lions win over the Packers 34-20. Matt LaFleur said they got their ass kicked. Zach Wilson was asked about Willie Gay's comments saying the Jets are in panic mode. He also was asked about the comments Joe Namath had about him. Al & Eddie had 2 anti-Zach Wilson songs. Chris Simms is under fire for saying ‘kill the quarterback'. In the final segment of the hour, Gio went to a terrible golf course yesterday that's near a poop plant. Gio had a bad experience with the guy in the pro shop. Hour 3 Joe Benigno is going to the Jets/Chiefs game with the Winters Brothers. Joe can turn on you like the tiger did on Siegfried and Roy. We also talked about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce and Gio said the best thing for a relationship is not being able to see each other so often. Gio also said he cannot cheat on her or the Swifties will go after him. Usher is doing the halftime show for the Super Bowl. Gio was disappointed because he wanted something bigger. Jerry returns for an update and has audio from Chandler Jones of the Raiders who is really in crisis mode. Hopefully he gets the help he needs. The Lions beat the Packers and Jerry has some play by play sound. Jordan Love said not to blame the offensive line, as he is not executing. Dan Campbell talked about his daily coffee routine.

Evan wonders how the Braves have 60 more HRs than the next team. Gio said the European Ryder Cup team is filled with ugly guys. In the final segment of the hour, we found out the toll for the GW Bridge for tractor trailers is $100. Crazy. Hour 4 What are the odds that Aaron Boone will be back next season? A caller wants to know if there was any fallout from the Phil Simms lady glasses. A caller went to KC to see the Chiefs instead of MetLife because it was less of a hassle.

Jamie Kennedy joins the Sambuca Boys this week to talk all things European Ryder Cup. Jamie talks about his experience working with the DP World Tour and the European Ryder Cup team, what some of the European players are saying following a trip to Rome, and if Europe's Ryder Cup chemistry is as strong as it's been portrayed. The group also touches on the discussion of course set-up following the release of photos and videos of Marco Simone's rough, ending with a talk on the merit of the “underdog mentality” both squads will use in Rome.
Andy and Brendan are back from the holiday weekend recording on the fifth anniversary of the start of this podcast, a misguided, silly, but often rewarding endeavor. They briefly discuss their weekends before a separate tennis chat on the U.S. Open in New York and what golf might learn, or not learn, from that. There's also some brief amusement over Martin Kaymer's dissatisfaction with the Cleeks. Then they get to the European Ryder Cup team rounding out with six picks from Luke Donald and what the Aberg selection says about the current state of golf. There's also some review of the U.S. roster and where it might run into points of contention against some of the personalities on this now finished Euro side. That also leads to a separate side reminiscence on the internal disaster that was the 2018 U.S. team when this podcast started, and whether there's the potential for that with this group. The Walker Cup at the Old Course is given a recap, with some thoughts on how to improve or tweak it going forward. News hits on the CJ Cup taking over the Byron Nelson.
