Beginning at 0:16, Doctor sets the tone with energetic anticipation, positioning Oakmont as a legendary course hosting the U.S. Open for a record tenth time. From 0:43, he sharply critiques the previous RBC Canadian Open, describing the Osprey Valley course as “a disgrace” and detailing a 5.8-unit loss that week, with Sam Burns' top-20 finish as the lone success. Despite the setbacks, he praises Ryan Fox's recent success, highlighting the Kiwi's two playoff victories in four starts and his historic Canadian Open win, the first by a New Zealander since 1968. Doctor then shifts focus to Oakmont's rich history. He recounts notable U.S. Open wins, including Tommy Armour (1927), Sam Parks Jr. (1935), and Ben Hogan's record-setting 1953 season. He emphasizes Jack Nicklaus' 1962 victory over Arnold Palmer at age 22, which kickstarted Nicklaus' legendary career. Johnny Miller's final-round 63 in 1973 is labeled the greatest round in U.S. Open history, despite not being the lowest score ever. Further champions like Larry Nelson (1983), Ernie Els (1994), Angel Cabrera (2007), and Dustin Johnson (2016) round out Oakmont's storied hosting record. At 12:00, Doctor begins his betting picks. He endorses Scottie Scheffler (+350) as outright number one, citing dominant recent wins and past experience at Oakmont, where he missed the cut by one in 2016. Bryson DeChambeau, with a futures ticket from December at 14-1, is lauded for his driving power and improved approach play, though his recent accuracy issues raise concern. DeChambeau claims Oakmont is “the toughest test in the world right now,” and Doctor remains confident in his form. Rory McIlroy is passed over due to a poor performance at the Canadian Open, including erratic driving and uninspired play. Doctor quotes Rory discussing his struggle for motivation and interest in hobbies like tennis. John Rahm, however, is preferred in a head-to-head matchup (-133), praised for his polished game despite recent putting inconsistency. Doctor argues Rahm is better equipped than Rory to handle Oakmont's demands. Xander Schauffele and Collin Morikawa are also faded. Xander's driving accuracy is flagged as a season-long weakness, and Morikawa is critiqued for losing strokes around the green in five of his last six starts, rendering him unfit for a major requiring elite scrambling. Ludwig Åberg is highlighted as a top Nordic pick at +180, benefiting from strong recent form and inconsistent competition, with Joachim Lagerlund identified as his main threat. Doctor names Hideki Matsuyama as top Japanese player at even money, emphasizing his elite U.S. Open history and the weak form of his countrymen. Outright picks include Scheffler (+350), DeChambeau (14-1), Brooks Koepka (18-1, faded due to poor form), Keegan Bradley (100-1, riding strong recent finishes), and Cam Young (150-1), who's gained strokes off the tee and on the greens recently. Young's playoff qualification over top names and his form earn him sleeper status. Two fantasy lineups are provided. A DraftKings build includes Rahm, Åberg, Spieth, Bradley, Young, and Leishman. The PGA Tour lineup features Scheffler (captain), Bradley, DeChambeau, and Young, with Åberg and Leishman on the bench. Doctor predicts a winning score of -3, depending on weekend rain, and offers Cam Young to finish top 28 at +320 as his best bet. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Will Doctor reviews all 95 players at Augusta en route to finalizing card for the 89th playing of the Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club. -Reviewing 4 futures outright tickets -Reviewing 3 picks to win any major in 2025 -Going through all 95 players in the Masters Tournament -Adding 1 outright -1 t20, 1 t30 -2 bets "to make the cut" -1 bet "to miss the cut" -4 72-hole matchups -1 first round matchup -3 round 1 three ball matchups -1 t10 after R1 including an 8.2-unit loss at the Valero Texas Open and a failed 9-1 futures ticket on the Houston Cougars in NCAA basketball. He stresses the importance of reviewing picks, especially amid a losing streak, and outlines the four Masters futures he carries from December: Scottie Scheffler (7-1), Ludwig Aberg (14-1), Sung Jae Im (50-1), and Sepp Straka (100-1), with three additional tickets on Sahith Theegala, Tom Kim, and Davis Thompson to win any major. Scottie Scheffler, coming in as the favorite at +525, is praised for consistent elite performance, including no finishes worse than 25th in six events since returning from a hand injury, and podium finishes in his last four starts. His game, including a best putting performance of the season in Houston, is peaking. Rory McIlroy is faded despite strong wins at Pebble Beach and the Players; Will cites driving accuracy issues and suggests 10-1 would be a fairer line than 7.25-1. Jon Rahm, now on the LIV circuit, enters at 16-1 with recent top-10s but inconsistent putting and chipping. Morikawa is also passed over due to final-round collapses, though Will does back him to top 10 in Round 1. Other fades include Bryson DeChambeau (20-1), Justin Thomas (25-1), and Hideki Matsuyama (35-1), due to poor putting or chipping trends. Conversely, Will is bullish on Robert MacIntyre (60-1), who has recorded three straight top-11 finishes and two strong prior Augusta showings. He places both an outright bet and a matchup on him. Victor Hovland is another targeted play, specifically in a matchup over Cam Smith, following his Valspar win and a confident outlook on his improved short game. Shane Lowry, cited for consistency and solid Augusta history, is backed for a top 20, while Russell Henley earns a top-30 ticket thanks to elevated iron play. Several key quotes add depth. Scottie Scheffler credits Texas's varied conditions for developing his shot-making adaptability. Rory McIlroy reflects on family memories and the beauty of Augusta. Morikawa defends media avoidance, which Will critiques as symptomatic of poor mental preparation. Hovland speaks optimistically about short-game improvements with coach Grant Waite, prompting confidence from Will. Aberg's comments reveal awareness of recent struggles, but he remains committed to routine. Sepp Straka remains a strong value at 100-1 with excellent iron play and driving form. He's bet to beat Sam Burns in a first-round matchup, who is faded due to declining performance. Sung Jae Im's ticket has cratered in value, and Will expresses regret on that pick. Spieth is passed over at 40-1 due to erratic iron play, despite solid chipping and putting. Other noted fades include Tommy Fleetwood, Corey Connors, Cam Smith, Patrick Cantlay, Min Woo Lee, and Brooks Koepka, each due to specific statistical weaknesses in approach, short game, or driving. Later segments analyze lower-ranked players, including positive remarks about Phil Mickelson's resurgence and Charles Schwartzel's sharp form. Will picks Mickelson to make the cut, citing recent LIV success. Keegan Bradley and Akshay Bhatia are also featured in favorable matchups. Will wraps with lineup picks for Masters.com, choosing Scheffler, Patrick Reed, Shane Lowry, Davis Thompson, and Straka.

Will Doctor gives you the sharpest card for the Valero Texas Open live from San Antonio at TPC San Antonio (Oaks). -Discussing top 8 on odds board -1 matchup -1 t10, 1 t20 -3 outrights (30/1, 55/1, 110/1) -Sleeper, 2 FRP, 2 lineups -Scoring, best bet For the latest as far as the world of golf, follow Doc on X @drmedia59 In the VALSPAR25 Golf Preview Podcast, Will Doctor recaps the Houston Open and offers a detailed betting breakdown for the upcoming Valero Texas Open. He opens by acknowledging a disappointing week in Houston, losing 5.5 units, bringing his season total to -53.8 units. Minwoo Lee claimed his first PGA Tour title, winning by one over Scottie Scheffler and Gary Woodland. Though Minwoo only hit 22 of 52 fairways, his dominance on and around the greens—15th in approach and around-the-green, and 2nd in putting—secured the win. Alejandro Tosti, known for his distance (4th at 317 yards), finished T-5 after a solid Sunday despite a rough start. Gary Woodland's emotional runner-up, his best since brain surgery, was fueled by elite putting and iron play. Scottie Scheffler posted his best putting week of 2025 and nearly chased down Minwoo with a final round 63, birdieing holes 13 through 16. Will's picks last week largely faltered. Davis Thompson (T-27) had a strong middle stretch but imploded on the greens Sunday with several missed short putts. Mac Meissner (T-39) drove poorly, finishing 67th in strokes gained off the tee, but impressed with iron play. Tony Finau missed a top-20 finish by two shots due to negative iron stats and a disastrous four-putt on Saturday's 15th hole. Minwoo Lee's top-20 bet hit, but Mackenzie Hughes lost top Canadian to Taylor Pendrith, who posted three rounds of 65. Looking ahead to the Valero Texas Open, Will previews a course demanding driving accuracy and elite short game on firm Bermuda greens. He dismisses favorites Ludwig Aberg (12-1), Tommy Fleetwood (14-1), Patrick Cantlay (20-1), Hideki Matsuyama (20-1), Keegan Bradley (25-1), and Jordan Spieth (25-1) due to recent struggles, poor pricing, or course history. Corey Conners, despite being 18-1, gets a top-10 pick (+175) based on his consistent form and two past wins at TPC San Antonio. Akshay Bhatia, the defending champion, earns a top-20 nod at even money given his recent top finishes. Will's outrights include Denny McCarthy (30-1), praised for elite putting and consistent irons; Bud Cauley (55-1), coming off two top-10s with sharp ball striking; and Isaiah Salinda (110-1), a powerful, accurate rookie who dazzled late in Houston. Woodland, fresh off his emotional T-2, is his sleeper pick for a top-10 finish at 4-1. First-round picks are Cauley (+450) and Salinda (+650) to top-10, both teeing off early. His DraftKings lineup features Bhatia, McCarthy, Cauley, Woodland, Salinda, and Meissner, while the PGA Tour Fantasy roster has Bhatia, McCarthy, Cauley, Salinda (captain), Woodland, and Lee Hodges. With potential wind and rain forecasted, Will predicts a winning score of 16-under. His best bet: Salinda to finish top-20 at 3-1.

Drumroll please…….… Joe is back! As we say here in England, super sub Sam De'Ath had great innings (Google it, Americans), but it's time for the star of the show to return and talk golf gear. His back is better, his beard is trimmed, and his makeup is done - we couldn't be happier to have ‘The Pro' back.  And it's a bumper episode to return to. Joe will give us insight into two of his favorite things - Taylormade irons and golf grips.

He finished 5-under on the final nine holes, with birdies at 10, 12, and 15, and a momentum-shifting eagle on the 14th. Led the field in Strokes Gained: Off the Tee and was top 10 in putting. Averaged 336 yards per drive (leading the field), scaling back to irons strategically in the final round. Will Doctor highlights McIlroy's shift to a conservative approach in his final round, citing Jamie Kennedy (Golf Digest) for insightful questions on McIlroy's tactics. Scottie Scheffler's Performance Finished T-9 despite high expectations. Was above average in all statistical categories, with a final-round 67. Second round (70) cost him ground, but overall solid performance. Tom Kim's Near Miss Finished T-7, cashing a top-10 ticket. Struggled on par-5s, a key reason for missing a podium finish. Big mistake: bogey on the par-5 6th, where he hit into the Pacific Ocean. His slow play is a concern heading into Phoenix Open, especially with rowdy fans at TPC Scottsdale. WM Phoenix Open – Picks & Predictions Top Contenders & Betting Analysis Scottie Scheffler (+305) Back-to-back WM Phoenix Open winner (2022, 2023). T-3 last year. Improved putting over recent months. Not betting outright but looking for a live number. Justin Thomas (15:1) Driving accuracy concerns. Has played well in Phoenix but struggles to win due to tee-shot inconsistencies. Passing on JT outright. Hideki Matsuyama (17:1) 2-time Phoenix Open winner (2016, 2017). Struggled with driving accuracy in recent events. Third consecutive tournament, raising fatigue concerns. Sungjae Im (22:1) Has 2 top-10 finishes at Phoenix Open. However, below-average iron play in 2 of last 3 starts. Has not truly contended at this event. Sam Burns (25:1) Back-to-back top-10s at WM Phoenix Open. Struggling with approach play in recent months. Passing on Burns this week. Tom Kim (33:1) Slow play may be an issue in a loud environment. T-17 last year, finished 11 shots back. Not enough value at 33:1, so passing on Kim. Best Bets & Sleeper Picks Matchup Bets Rico Hoey over Thriston Lawrence (-106) Hoey: Great total driver & putter on overseeded greens. Lawrence: Poor driving accuracy & distance. Hoey should outperform Lawrence in these conditions. Top Picks Kurt Kitayama Win: 66:1 Top-20: +240 Strengths: Elite driver, strong recent putting. Recent results at WM Phoenix Open: T-23 in 2023. T-8 in 2022. Why bet? Improved driving accuracy recently, well-rested after missing Farmers. Gary Woodland (Sleeper Pick) Win: 115:1 Top-20: +350 Past Winner (2018). Ball-striking back to form with coach Randy Smith. Putting showed improvement at Pebble Beach. Low risk, high reward pick.

In this two-part podcast, Andy Johnson is first joined by Fried Egg Golf's Joseph LaMagna to discuss the first PGA Tour stop of the 2025 season, Hideki Matsuyama's record-breaking win at The Sentry. With Matsuyama taking down the PGA Tour's 72-hole record for score-to-par, Andy and Joseph discuss whether the game has moved past the Plantation Course at Kapalua Resort. The two debate whether changing the course to a par 72 as opposed to the current par 73 iteration would make things any better and how the PGA Tour could possibly add some teeth to a course that lacks defense when the wind isn't blowing. For the second part of this show, Andy chats with golf architect Jaeger Kovich about the most pressing issues for the golf course industry in 2025, such as rising building costs and the continued growth of resort golf.

Andy and Brendan are back to recap the first PGA Tour event of 2025, a Hideki Matsuyama win at The Sentry. Andy is fired up about the a Bears win in Green Bay to end the NFL season and Brendan now has a playoff game to look forward to with the Commanders on Sunday Night Football next week. The golf talk begins with a look at Hideki's performance in his season-opening win, as he set the PGA Tour scoring record at a final tally of -35 for the week. Andy ponders whether Hideki's a Hall of Famer and the two try to slot him into a tier among the biggest names in pro golf. Kapalua takes some shots for producing yet another birdiefest, with chatter that they could be making the course into a par 72 for next year's event. Andy and Brendan then discuss Collin Morikawa's runner up finish and wonder why he has not tried to add speed to his swing like so many of his counterparts. In news, the Tour Championship may move to a match-play format, something Andy has been calling for for years. Peppy Peter and Adam Scott aren't sold on the idea, and Brendan shares some quotes from the two about other potential formats for the last event of the year. There's some optimism about the TGL debut on Tuesday night, as Ludvig will represent The Bay against Xander and NYGC on ESPN for the first-ever match. Andy and Brendan debate whether TGL will work, what "working" looks like in this sense, and applaud the amount of content surrounding the league's launch so far. Finally, this episode ends with a Sports Minute celebrating the merciful end of an awful NFL season for the Bears, Browns, and Jets.

This marked the debut show for 5 Clubs on Golf Channel and our first guest was none other than World #1 golfer Nelly Korda. She joined Gary Williams to talk about her memorable 2024 season as well as what is in store for 2025. Gary also discussed the record-setting performance of Hideki Matsuyama at The Sentry, his observations from the first week back on the men's side and what to make of just how good Scottie Scheffler has been the past few years.

Yesterday in Hawaii, Hideki Matsuyama put on a clinic, winning the season opening Sentry for his 11th career PGA Tour win. His 35-under for the week is the lowest score to par in a 72-hole event. Damon and Eamon discuss Matsuyama's dominating performance and what another second place means for Morikawa. Our colleague Johnson Wagner also knows something about lifting a trophy in Hawaii. Back in 2012, he shot a 3-under 67 in the final round of the Sony Open for a two-shot victory. Johnson joins the show to reminisce on his victorious week and the upcoming PGA season.

The 2024 Year in Review comes to an end with this final installment covering golf's ultimate prize, the FedEx Cup Playoffs. Before the Year in Review kicks off, Andy and Brendan react live to the end of the PNC Championship as Team Langer took down Team Woods in a one-hole playoff down in Florida. There's also some Swag Sports Minute chatter early in the show with another losing Sunday from the Bears, Browns, and Jets. The Year in Review finale begins with Brendan researching the happenings at TPC Initech as part of the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Hideki Matsuyama ran away with the win, but Rory McIlroy, Max Homa, and Jordan Spieth struggled to find any form in Memphis. Brendan also shares some laughs from the U.S. Amateur and the NFL preseason. PJ then leads the way for the second stage of the playoffs, a Keegan Bradley win at Castle Pines for the BMW Championship. Scottie got angry at the course, Billy Boy was nervous about protecting the points, and Lydia Ko won the Women's Open at St Andrews. Finally, as always, Andy dedicated his time to researching the Net Tour Championship, the cherry on top of Scottie Scheffler's 2024 season. He recaps the Creator Classic, Jay Monahan's State of the Tour presser, and the ridiculousness of the "FedEx Starting Strokes" branding. We hope you enjoyed all nine episodes reviewing the amusing, inane, and extraordinary moments from another year of golf.
