Lee Westwood and Trevor Immelman joined the program this morning. Westwood recently qualified for this year's Open at Royal Portrush and Immelman is the lead analyst in the booth for CBS Sports.
It's a throwback audio episode with Brendan using his Airpods after finding himself in a travel delay. Nevertheless, Andy is on cloud nine over on Westy Island after Lee Westwood qualified for this month's Open Championship at Royal Portrush. The two reminisce about Westy's t-4 performance and stand-up morals at the 2019 Open before running through the rest of the 2025 qualifiers from overseas. They are particularly chuffed by Richard Teder, a 20-year-old from Estonia who holed out for eagle in a playoff to secure his spot at Portrush. Andy wonders if Dick Teder is the first player in a new generation of golfers - the Rory (Sabbatini) generation. LIV's 2026 schedule was leaked and the league won't make a stop in the United States until mid-May. Brendan and Andy run through the dates and the travel plans needed to play at majors throughout the world, such as going from Spain to Shinnecock Hills for the U.S. Open. From there, it's time for some lock-hammer-fire picks for the John Deere Classic at TPC Deere Run. The "Champion House" is back and is sure to be catnip for the entirety of the week. It's the strongest field in tournament history and there's no better example of that than Rickie Fowler returning to the Quad Cities for the first time since 2010. Andy shares a little 2010 time capsule to contextualize how long its been since Rickie played the Deere and gets Brendan to sing along to some Ke$ha on a Tuesday afternoon. In news, Adam Schupak reported that numerous PGA Tour legends are unhappy that they've been cut out of the new equity program coming as part of the PGA Tour Enterprises company. 36 former players will receive money based on a "career points" system that prioritized PGA Tour wins and starts, leaving European stars like Tony Jacklin and Nick Faldo on the outside looking in. They are, predictably, unhappy and voiced their displeasure to Golfweek, leading to a lengthy discussion from Andy and Brendan. Tune in to CBS Sports Network at Noon ET on Wednesday, July 2, for the Team Europe Wheel of Mules on "Eye on Golf with The Shotgun Start."
Andrew Novak and Henni Zuel joined the program this morning. Novak, who is having a career year, talked about how he has had to grow into every level of golf to get comfortable and feel like he can belong. He also talked about how motivating it is to know he is part of the Ryder Cup conversation. Zuel, part of the Sky Sports broadcast team, joined to talk about the recent qualifiers for The Open including Lee Westwood. The show ended with dogs of the week and team picks for the John Deere Classic.
With pegs in the ground tomorrow at the John Deere Classic, our crew catches up with past winners Zach Johnson and Lucas Glover! The two major champions discuss their favorite memories of winning at TPC Deere Run, and what they think makes this small-town event such a staple for the PGA TOUR. Aldrich Potgieter has yet to be a multi-time winner on TOUR but is well on his way after winning the Rocket Classic last week! The burly South African is in the field this week and catches up with Eamon and Lav as he now turns his attention to locking up the last available spot in the Open Championship. Aldrich Potgieter (3:53) Zach Johnson (17:00) Lucas Glover (34:23)

If you're interested in astrology, PGA cleanup, and the most comprehensive preview of the Senior PGA Championship, this is the episode for you! Still basking in the afterglow of Scottie's win at the PGA, Andy and Brendan are in high spirits for this Wednesday episode. They first debate what a fair over-under is for Scottie Scheffler's career major wins and emphasize how hard it is to sustain an elite level of play for ten years. The two then do some more PGA wrap up and briefly look ahead to Oakmont and Royal Portrush, where they expect Jon Rahm to be a contender. On the PGA Tour, Scottie will tee it up again in Dallas for the Charles Schwab Challenge. Joining him there are Corey Pavin, Olin Browne, and David Frost, leading Brendan to question whether these olds will be competitive at Colonial. After making some fire picks for the week, this episode turns into a full-on preview of the Senior PGA Championship at Congressional. Brendan and PJ go through the field and discuss notables, including Andy's favorite, Lee Westwood! There are odds out there for this event, so picks are made for this major championship as well. In news, Detroit's TGL team will begin play in 2027 and some history was made at the USGA Fourball.
Andy starts this Friday episode by breaking the news of the latest Cavaliers trade to Brendan just before the NBA trade deadline on Thursday afternoon. Brendan parlays his excitement about the Cavs into a recap of LIV's first-ever round on FS2, complete with dancing robots, strobe lights, and a Backstreet Boys appearance! Brendan shares details of his morning watching the 54 players in Riyadh and calls Thursday's first round "the golf broadcast of the year" to this point. With solid first rounds from names such as Dustin Johnson, Lee Westwood, and new signing Tom McKibbin, there's some anticipation for the final two rounds of competition in Saudi Arabia. In other LIV news, the USGA announced an exemption category for LIV golfers, the first major to have an explicit category for LIV qualifiers. On the PGA Tour, a statement regarding Jay Monahan and Adam Scott meeting with President Trump was released just before recording. The three met to discuss a potential deal between the PGA Tour and PIF, which the statement alleges is becoming closer to being a reality. Andy and Brendan then talk through Rory McIlroy's response to Charley Hoffman's letter taking "thinly-veiled" shots at him earlier this week. On the golf course, the WM Phoenix Open has turned into a influencer event, which has Brendan wondering whether it could be that exclusive if everyone's invited. Brendan shares some reports from PGA Tour HQ about cafeteria prices being raised, and Andy wonders if this is an SSG operation to recoup some money spent on other sports teams. This episode wraps with some SGS Golf Advice questions about joining a club and some Super Bowl chatter before the big game on Sunday night.
So, it looks like the 12 players who make the US team for next year's Ryder Cup team will each be paid a share of $4million to take part. On this week's episode of The bunkered Podcast, Michael, Bryce and Alex react to this shock news – and suffice to say, not one of them is impressed. Elsewhere, the guys grade Rory McIlroy's year after he signed off on 2024 with an emotional victory in the DP World Tour Championship and they respond to the latest stinging criticism of Tyrrell Hatton's antics.

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 421 - Golf Wars - LIV Golf's Bitter Battle For Power We're talking with Iain Carter about his new book, Golf Wars and the turbulent world of professional golf. The battle for the future of professional golf has been blazing. The Saudi-backed organisation LIV Golf has struck at the very heart of the golfing establishment, setting up rival tournaments with enormous prize pots and pitting the game's most famous players against each other. Led by legend Greg Norman, it has enticed the likes of Sergio García, Ian Poulter, Lee Westwood and Jon Rahm, parking its tanks on the manicured greens of the traditional game. Its tagline: Golf but louder. With LIV now in its season and little sign of the struggle abating, BBC Golf Correspondent Iain Carter delivers the fascinating – and ongoing – account of a sporting upheaval. Golf Wars spotlights the key players, both on the course and in the boardroom, exploring how the PGA Tour and other traditional organisations are fighting back. Carter covers every twist and turn, hearing from influential figures including Rory McIlroy, Jay Monahan, Greg Norman, Keith Pelley and Tiger Woods. Through expert and up-to-date analysis of all sides of this bitter conflict, Carter reveals how the saga is unfolding and what it means for golf's future. Has the controversial Saudi Arabian state essentially bought the game? Is LIV just a sportwashing series of glitzy exhibition tournaments? Or is it a welcome challenge to the golfing hegemony and a long-awaited refresh of tired traditions? This epic tale of fierce internal warfare has shaken golf to its core and marks a seminal moment in sporting history.

Munn confesses his wandering eye allowed him to cheat on the Reese's Blizzard at DQ for the first time in 20 years and purchase a Puppy Chow Blizzard.The guys talk about Wyndham Clark's run to his first career victory at the Wells Fargo Championship, played at one of the toughest courses on Tour at Quail Hollow. Clark burst past Xander Schauffele on the back nine. With just two designated events remaining, the top two players in the world sat this event out and the guys break down all of the week's storylines.They touch on Phil's recent Twitter behavior, using expletives to describe Mike Whan's decision at the USGA to remove Talor Gooch's exemption into the U.S. Open. Meanwhile, Lee Westwood continues to rip the DP World Tour after the Tour won it's legal battle against the LIV Tour players.The guys talk about Gopher Ben Warian continuing a fantastic junior season, qualifying for the NCAA Regionals next week in Michigan and Bella McCauley and Mariana Mesones playing at the NCAA Indiana Regional this week.

Thailand ran the table to beat Australia in the finals.Brad breaks down the Minnesota high school golf scene with Maple Grove surging into the top ranking in the boys and girls rankings.
It's Friday! Andy and Brendan discuss a variety of topics as we barrel toward the weekend. They begin with some of the drama around this Talor Gooch exemption cutout for the U.S. Open, and some of Phil's working theories for it. That leads to a digression on some of the unseen tactics that can be deployed by one prominent manufacturer that begins with a “t” and ends with a “t” in the ongoing rollback and bifurcation battle. Rory McIlroy working with the TaylorMade team for six or seven months on some new wedges is a nice segue from that. There's some LeBron vs. Steph chatter and excitement about the Bears NFC North chances against a Rodgers-less Packers team. Lee Westwood's poor choice of words about resigning from the DP World Tour is covered, as are the Ryder Cup implications for the European side and its captain's room in the future.

After getting ripped to shreds on LIV Twitter, CP (mainly), Alex and Steve defend themselves against the haters, a group that included Lee Westwood, who came up with a new name for our podcast. We also debate the merits of the OWGR and whether or not 40 minutes could be described as “a hike” to play golf. Finally, a recap of Tony Finau and Talor Gooch's wins, plus picks for this week's elevated event, the Wells Fargo.
4-24-2023 Passed Ball Show. John spends this program questioning the value of the regular season of the four major U.S. team sports. With so many teams now given a spot in the postseason, there is limited value in a team having the best record in a given division- let alone the entire league. John makes some suggestions to better incentivize finishing with the best record of a given league, such as an automatic berth in the conference (or league) championship series. John then congratulates the Pittsburgh Pirates- first for their solid start to the 2023 baseball season, then for the belief in their manager to give him an extension. John brings up the Houston Astros terrible (at the time) decision to fire Bo Porter during an organizational decision based rebuild and doubles down on his appreciation for an organizational belief in a manager even when the team is losing. Finally, John questions whether there is a need for a NBA team to have an enforcer- a shittalking, trouble starting player whose sole goal is to get under the skin of the opponent's star(s). And during today's Saving Sports History segment, John talks about Lave Cross, the first American League Game, Happy Chandler, Bob Cousy, past NFL Drafts, Andy Cooper, Omar Vizquel, Chipper Jones, and Lee Westwood.
The My Love of Golf Podcast - EP226 What a tremendous win in NZ by Aussie Brendan Jones. Fifteen times winner on the Japan tour, it was clear to see just how much this win at Millbrook meant for Jones. After battling to make the cut Jones strung together a tremendous Saturday round of 9 under to set up the tilt at the win. Twitter set alight by Mike. Nah, not really, however a simple response to Mike from Lee Westwood seemed to cause a stir, and it has definitely caused a stir internally amongst the LIV and PGAT discord fans. We chat the regular teepster chat and preview The Players at the TPC Sawgrass. An hour plus of two golf obsessed men chatting golf.
