The action gets underway tomorrow with the morning foresomes, while 8,000 spectators will be in attendance on both days of the competition. Over 60 greenkeepers will be on hand over the weekend, with 45 drafted in as volunteers from around the world, to keep the course in top shape.

Andy and Brendan are excited for Labor Day weekend and bring the energy for this Whiparound Friday episode ahead of the holiday. They begin with Mike Sposa's win at the U.S. Senior Amateur Championship at Baltimore Country Club. Andy is inspired by this story of resilience in the amateur game and wonders how Sposa had the time to get so good at golf while he was busy making 90 cuts on the PGA Tour! The two break down yet another example of the farce that is "reinstated amateurism" and wonder how the USGA let this guy bank in the ranks after such a long pro career. Brendan continues the heartwarming start to the show with a Sergio Garcia tale from the Omega European Masters that you won't want to miss. From there, they discuss this weekend's Walker Cup at Lahinch Golf Club. Team USA has to face not only the best Great Britain & Ireland team in recent memory, but they're also battling a stomach bug that has taken over the teamroom. From there, Andy shares some research into the Christiaan Bezuidenhout Presidents Cup pick and decides that C-Bez should play all five sessions for the Internationals. Kevin Van Valkenburg returns with yet another B. Draddy P-Cup Flashback about the 2015 matches and some Phil Mickelson hijinks in South Korea.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 2ú lá de mí Aibreán, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1976 bhí an ECC ag iarradh caith amach ball nach raibh ag déanamh an rud ceart. I 1993 tháinig an nuacht amach go raibh an GAA ag smaoineamh ar cead a thabhairt chuig cluichí rugbaí a imir I bPáirc an Chrócaigh. Dúradh go raibh siad ag smaoineamh ar de bharr go mbeidís ábalta níos mó airgead a fháil don fhorbairt ar an staid. I 1960 bhí Inis chun gach rud a dhéanamh chun na bóthair a bheith sábháilte do gach duine. I 1993 fuair daoine cnámharlach ag Club Gailf Lahinch nuair a bhí siad ag déanamh obair ann. Dúradh go raibh sé fear ó ghlúin eile. Tháinig na Gardaí amach agus dúirt siad go raibh sé ón ghorta. Sin Brotherhood of Man le Save Your Kisses For Me – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo i 1976. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1977 chuaigh Fleetwood Mac chuig barr na cairteacha lena albam Rumours. Bhí amhráin ar an albam cosúil le Go Your Own Way, Dreams, Don't Stop agus You Make Loving Fun. Bhí sé an t-albam is mó a chuir Fleetwood Mac amach agus bhí sé sna cairteacha ar feadh 20 bhliain I Meiriceá agus dhíol siad níos mó ná 40 milliúin cóip timpeall an domhain. I 2001 shínigh Mariah Carey margadh iontach le Virgin Records do 3 albam leis an luach nach mór 100 milliúin dollar. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh amhránaí Marvin Gaye I Meiriceá I 1939 agus rugadh amhránaí Zach Bryan I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1996 agus seo chuid de a amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 2nd of April, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh In 1976 The ECC was on the verge of putting the economic boot in against members stepping out of line In 1993 The GAA considered allowing rugby to be played at Croke park as part of its plans to secure millions of pounds of state funding for the development of the stadium. In 1960 Ennis was to start a big drive to make the roads in the area more safe for all users. In 1993 a skeleton unearthed during development works at Lahinch Golf Club and was believed to be that if a man from another generation. According to the gardai, the bones were most likely from the famine period. That was Brotherhood of Man with Save Your Kisses For Me – the biggest song on this day in 1976. Onto music news on this day in 1977, Fleetwood Mac topped the Billboard 200 with their 11th studio album, Rumours. Featuring such enduring Top Ten hits as “Go Your Own Way,” “Dreams,” “Don't Stop,” and “You Make Loving Fun,” the Grammy-winning album would become the band's most successful release, eventually spending more than 20 non-consecutive years on the US chart and selling more than 40 million copies worldwide. In 2001, Mariah Carey signed what was then the most lucrative recording deal in pop music history when she agreed to join Virgin Records in a three-album deal reportedly worth $100 million. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – Marvin Gaye was born in america in 1939 and singer Zach Bryan was born in america on this day in 1996 and this is one of his songs. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.
