Brendan! returns to host this Friday episode and begins by picking Andy's brain about a morning spent at the DMV. This conversation quickly evolves into a debate about different kinds of gasoline and why the "middle" level of gas even exists. If anyone out there happens to own a gas station, please let us know your thoughts on this matter. Speaking of "gas", Rico Hoey is continuing his fall swing heater with a share of the first round lead at the RSM Classic. Andy does some Big J Journalism and investigates whether Hoey will be eligible for the International Presidents Cup team and finds out that he is, in fact, eligible to take down Scottie Scheffler at Medinah in September 2026. The two then run down the Top 100 Bubble Boys as the FedEx Cup season finally comes to a close, mentioning that podcast favorites like Matt Kuchar and the "Beau-rista" may be on the outside looking in for full status. "AI Minute" returns with Andy reading off the Google Gemini suggestions for someone googling Matt Kuchar's age. They then check in on the Tour's "Players to Watch", most of whom are struggling after Thursday's round. Brendon Todd was not one of the five highlighted by the Tour, but "Todd Watch" returns anyway for a quick minute. Brendan then shifts to the biggest news coming out of the RSM, some comments from Harris English about a potential PGA Tour schedule change. English claims that the Tour is discussing starting after the Super Bowl and running a 20-event season. Andy and Brendan discuss the impact this would have on the "A Tour" and "B Tour" setups, as well as major markets that would likely host a new tournament under this structure. Andy brings in a "former NFL executive" (PJ) to share some thoughts on a move to an NFL-like schedule under Brian Rolapp, another very famous ex-NFL exec. PJ is also prompted to preview an upcoming "Lunch with The Boys" episode featuring recurring guest Cameron Young. Through two rounds, Caleb Surratt is doing Caleb Surratt things at the Saudi International, but Anthony Kim is close behind him on the leaderboard! Brendan and Andy then unpack a bit of the LPGA's 2026 schedule changes before wrapping things up with the latest from Notah on Tiger's future competitive plans.
Steve is BACK and kicks things off with some Golfer of the Year debate and trying to determine who should wear the crown between Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy. Then he discusses Laurie Canter rejoining the PGA Tour from LIV Golf, Kai Trump's controversial LPGA debut, the FedEx Fall Finale, and Victor Perez heading to LIV!Suicide Prevention Lifeline Info: https://988lifeline.orgSupport our sponsors!'47Get FREE Shipping on ALL orders when you join the '47 Family and shop your favorite sports teams with '47 Brand!47.sjv.io/JKOKkEMERCH: Get 10% off your next merch order with code UNDERGROUND at phiapparel.co/shopAcorn Hills:Use code "GITH15" for 15% off at https://acornhillsco.com/MacGregor GolfMacGregor is one the most well-known brands in golf, winning a remarkable 59 Majors in our illustrious history, and used by all-time greats.

Andy is joined by "The Boys" for this final Wednesday show of the 2025 PGA Tour season! Brendan is off at Pinehurst in protest of the RSM Classic, his least favorite PGA Tour event, so PJ and Joseph LaMagna step in to preview the fall swing finale. PGA Tour Comms put out an unhinged list of five "Players to Watch" for the RSM which prompts a guessing game to kick off the show. Andy then goes down the list of every winner of the event and wonders if this is the worst winner's list of any full-field PGA Tour event. Although he's not a "Player to Watch," U.S. Am winner Mason Howell is in the field and playing with Davis Love III for the first two rounds. The CME Group Tour Championship rounds out a big week of LPGA news. Every round of the 2026 season will be broadcast on live TV with more cameras and microphones on the course to help facilitate this. Andy issues an apology for misidentifying Brooke Matthews as the winner of the Lamborghini on Monday's episode and quizzes PJ and Joseph on whether they'd even want the car after an ace. 43 LIV golfers will tee it up at the PIF Saudi International for some coffee golf in the U.S., but they're all dwarfed by Sampson Zheng for the purposes of this podcast (and the soundboard). LIV's offseason is underway and the first PGA Tour defection is in the books with Victor Perez heading to the Cleeks. Martin Kaymer is ecstatic about this acquisition and gave some glowing quotes about how Perez will further elevate the Cleeks brand. The three pitch some other LIV hot stove transactions, including two offers for one of the brightest young golf stars in the world! In news, former LIV star Henrik Stenson paid his DPWT fines and will be back on the tour for 2025 in some capacity. Andy wonders if this is all a ploy to get a second chance at a Ryder Cup captaincy now that the Euro pipeline seems dry. The Augusta Hooters was demolished on Tuesday but PJ already has a plan for another interview with John Daly next year. Finally, there's some general sports chatter to round out this episode with notes on the Colts, LeBron James, and a takedown of WWE.

Chris McKee wraps up everything that happened at the DP World Tour's Race to Dubai where Rory McIlory won his 7th title. You'll hear audio from Rory as well as Tommy Fleetwood, Marco Penge and more. McKee also recaps Adam Schenk winning the Butterfield Bermuda Championship as well as several key PGA Tour players trying to hang onto their tour cards including Adam Hadwin. McKee also discussed Kai Trump's LPGA Tour debut in Florida.
Nick and Mark have come in with plenty to discuss, they both watched a heap of golf over the weekend and have seen some great performances that they want to discuss. The one-handed putting of Adam Schenk a highlight, and we discuss one-handed putting. Nick has been reading about a new technique called 'heads up putting' that he explains to Mark. Young pro Max Charles performed well at the weekend and Mark was particularly proud of how Max went given he has been giving him a few pointers, and pinching (with credit) some of Nick O'Hern's tips. Mark discusses what he calls 'formalising acceleration', what it is, and what it achieves. On that, Mark predicted a 64 in the Box Hill Pro Am, he didn't quite get there with his up and downs letting him down.Nick talks about 'the feel'. When you've got it, you're on. He talks through a time playing the Congressional in Washington when he had the feels, and Mark has a story about watching, and then copying Raymond Floyd.Mark gives an update on Charlie Woods and explains why he is a fan of the young fella. Nick's Touch of Class for BMW is on something that Rory McIlroy has done, and not on the golf course. We have a listen.After the turn, we touch on what went wrong with our Betr multi at the weekend. Mark and Dan blame Nick saying he put the mozz on the multi and is at fault. When you hear the facts it is hard to argue. Although Nick defends himself. If this was a court case, Nick would be found guilty and the sentence would be significant. Probably with no non-parole period.Our Betr Top 5 is less controversial than last weeks. We've had a mountain of feedback following Marks Top 5 things that Pros laugh at Amateurs for doing last week, which we'll discuss in a bonus pod later in the week. Today, Nick lists his Top 5 unusual things you see Pros do.Feedback today for Southern Golf Club - some comments about Nicks photo from the Shepparton Golf Club in front of the honour board, Gary Player, Trees on Links courses, and Marks old caddy Drew has written in...Mark reveals the first time he ever hired Drew to caddy for him, and why it went pear-shaped on the 3rd holeA big PING global results today with plenty for Nick to run through - Dubai, LPGA, and a heap more. So much for it being a quiet time of the golfing year!And the masterclass for watchMynumbers.....Mark has brought a chopstick in to illustrate a point in todays masterclass which has to do with having enough 'space' when you're driving.We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:BMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;And watchMynumbers and Southern Golf Club.

Het was de week van de verrassingen. Zo slaagde Mike Toorop erin om een DP World kaart te bemachtigen voor komend seizoen. Natuurlijk bellen we 'm even. Ook Anne-Sterre den Dunnen verraste menigeen door in haar allereerste LPGA wedstrijd tussen allerlei wereldsterren 'gewoon' de cut te halen, ook haar bellen we natuurlijk even. Verder was het verrassend dat Mcllroy niet won maar zijn goede vriend Fitzy wel. En dat levert natuurlijk leuke content op van Mevrouw Fitzy. Op Bermuda waaide je zowat uit je onderbroek, wat dan weer niet verrassend is.

We also show our appreciation for the Butterfield and other fall events that seemingly always punch above their weight, talk through the week for the LPGA, assorted news and notes including JT's surgery and the publication of PGA Tour financials.

En un capítulo que fue de menos a más, los Caimanes descubrieron una falla en el sistema de puntos del PGA Tour en la FedEx Cup: cómo frena el crecimiento de golfistas, cierra puertas a algunos y le da oportunidades a varios que, posiblemente, ya no lo merecen. También, por supuesto, el séptimo campeonato de puntos de Rory McIlroy en el DP World, así como el tercer lugar en solitario de la mexicana Gaby López en la LPGA.
Rory the Glory, Fitzpatrick im Hattrick-Modus und ein deutscher Player of the Year: In dieser Folge nehmen Hinnerk Baumgarten, Benedict „Bene“ Staben, Sven Hanft und Julius Allzeit das DP World Tour Championship in Dubai auseinander. Rory McIlroy erzwingt mit einem spektakulären Eagle an der 18 das Stechen, doch Matt Fitzpatrick holt sich seinen dritten Titel auf dem Earth Course. Im Fokus aus deutscher Sicht: Nicolai von Dellingshausen, der mit vier Runden unter Par, Sieg in Österreich und Rang 37 im Jahresranking eine bemerkenswert stabile Saison spielt – sportlich wie privat ein echtes Paket. Parallel dazu wird klar, wie dünn die deutsche Spitze geworden ist: Nur vier Deutsche besitzen 2026 eine volle DP-World-Tour-Karte, die Q-School endet beinahe im Debakel. Die Runde diskutiert strukturelle Defizite im deutschen Leistungssport, Ego-Trainer, überladene Förderstrukturen und den Vergleich mit Skandinavien. Dazu kommen Updates von der PGA Tour (Rosenmüller und Jeremy Paul im Kartenkampf), der LPGA mit Esther Henseleit sowie den Champions mit Bernhard Langer und Alex Čejka. Bene erklärt den neuen „Power-Move“ mit Ground-Forces und warum ohne Rumpfstabilität gar nichts geht. Zum Schluss gibt's Ausrüster-Talk: Fitzpatricks wilder Schlägermix, vier Wedges, kein Eisen 8 – und erste Geschenkideen Richtung Golf-Weihnachten inklusive Adventskalender-Teaser. Highlights Dubai-Drama: Rorys Eagle an der 18, Fitzpatricks Sieg im Stechen und Analyse des Earth Course Nicolai von Dellingshausen: starke Saison, Top-40 im Ranking und deutscher Player of the Year Q-School-Frust: warum Deutschland mit nur vier vollen Tourkarten in die neue Saison geht Power-Move & Ground-Forces: Bene erklärt moderne Längen-Gewinnung – und die Verletzungsfallen PGA, LPGA & Champions Tour: Updates zu Rosenmüller, Jeremy Paul, Esther Henseleit, Bernhard Langer und Alex Čejka What's in the Bag Matt Fitzpatrick: Markenmix, vier Wedges, kein Eisen 8 – was Amateure daraus lernen können

This Friday morning recording covers a variety of topics, stretching from a hypothetical Matthew Jordan comeback at the DPWT Championship to a preview of a Bears-Browns game happening five weeks from now. We begin with a Football Minute following another Jets primetime loss. Andy forces PJ to apologize for forcing America to watch Justin Fields in a standalone game, something that he has done on this podcast many times. Andy and Brendan quickly pivot to the Butterfield Bermuda Championship where Adam Hadwin had the early lead. The two use Hadwin fighting for his card as an example of the new cutthroat PGA Tour rules and a proof of concept for what the fall swing should be. Mid-Am Will Haddrell, previously mentioned on Wednesday's episode, looks to be in position to make the cut and maybe even beat Michael Brennan! In Dubai, the European Ryder Cup team is off to the races in the final event of the DP World Tour season. Nicolai Hojgaard leads at the halfway point over the likes of Justin Rose, Shane Lowry, and Rory McIlroy. Andy compares the leaderboard in Dubai to the Butterfield leaderboard for a good chuckle before asking if a Patrick Reed or Matthew Jordan comeback win would do more for content. The Internet Invitational wrapped up last night with over 200,000 live viewers tuning in for the finale. Andy and Brendan discuss the reach of the tournament and compare the viewer numbers to what the Butterfield may produce this weekend. Kai Trump's LPGA debut produced plenty of viewers on social media as she carded an 83 in the first round at the ANNIKA. Brendan gives some credit to Trump for beating the offshore gambling lines and says it was a "not-horrendous" score given the circumstances. This leads into another wider discussion about what sponsor exemptions should be used for in golf and whether someone like Internet Invitational star Brad Dalke is worthy of one in a PGA Tour event. Andy highlights that other popular sports do not need something like a sponsor exemption to bring in eyeballs. The Champions Tour is playing four rounds this week at Phoenix Country Club and some hecklers have surfaced following Bernhard Langer around the event. Two patrons are unhappy with Langer's potential "anchoring" and have t-shirts and the rulebook to prove their point. This episode ends with a Golf Advice question that could be straight out of a "Curb Your Enthusiasm" script that has Andy yelling about aces again.
John Darkow - PoliticalCartoons.com On this week's show... The federal government shutdown is over for now, but the debate on healthcare rages on. Michigan Democrats, led by Senators Peters and Slotkin, have harsh words for the 7 Democrats who voted with Republicans to end the 41-day shutdown without any guaranteed continuation of healthcare insurance subsidies. The Republican bill includes a potential onetime $500,000 or more bonus for 8 Senators investigated as part of the January 6 insurrection (Lindsey Graham says he'll sue for millions!) The White House calls the newly released Epstein emails part of a Democratic Party hoax – that there's nothing there – but Trump is doing all he can to keep the files secret, and redirect the story to investigations of retirees like Bill Clinton and Larry Summers. The U.S. House will vote on a full release of all the files in early December. Donald Trump basically admits widespread law-breaking by his reelection team, issuing federal pardons to 71 of his minions – even though they haven't been federally charged. And the pardons don't save folks like Giuliani and Meadows from possible state criminal charges. The looming increases in health insurance premiums has convinced four companies to pull out of the Michigan market. Former Congressman Mike Rogers thought he had a free ride to the GOP nomination for U.S. Senator, but there's a new candidate who could make the next 9 months a lot more difficult for him. Former Michigan Republican Party co-chair Bernadette Smith starts with more than a little support from the party's MAGA base. Rogers is now saying the 2024 election was stolen from him but providing no proof. And there's the story of two presidential grandkids extending family traditions: JFK's grandson, Jack Schlossberg, extends the family tradition by running for Congress in New York … in a district that includes Trump Tower. Donald Trump's granddaughter, Kai, is extending a different family tradition: she's playing golf, making her LPGA debut as an invited golfer in the LPGA Annika Tournament. Sadly, after the 2nd round she was dead last (18 over par) and missed the cut

Before Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme get to golf's biggest news of the past week - LIV Golf moving from 54 to 72 holes - we begin by detailing Smylie's brutal onset of “dad back” that left him crawling around the house. Charlie then recounts his cathartic return to golf at Hidden Creek - from a rain-soaked finish to a well-deserved steam shower. From there, the guys dig into LIV's move to 72-hole events: does it help majors performance, OWGR hopes, or brand identity? They hit fan reactions, Rory's take, player pathways, and why 72 holes might help some stars while blurring what made LIV different. In the back half of the episode, they tackle the DP World Tour dilemma: Rahm and Hatton's appeals, Ryder Cup eligibility, the PGA Tour partnership, TV product realities, and whether “home games,” nations, or mixed-gender teams could make team golf click. Chapters: 00:00 On the road; off-season check-in 00:28 “Dad-back” hits: stairs, stroller, and full-body spasms 04:59 Crawling the house, bathroom saga, and the recovery plan 07:24 Dry needling, PT, and week-to-week swing timeline 07:50 Hidden Creek trip: first rounds back after surgery 09:51 Birdies in a downpour, finishing 18, and the steam-shower reward 12:50 News segue: DP World Tour wrap, Ben Griffin's win, LIV headlines 13:31 Main topic: LIV moves from 54 to 72—first reactions 14:16 OWGR reality vs format; the closed-shop and pathways problem 15:38 Preparing for majors versus blurring LIV's brand identity 17:02 Rory's comments and field-strength implications 18:05 What would actually move the needle: tee times, relegation, field size 18:49 Why 54 could create different winners vs 72's “truer” leaderboard 19:29 Shotgun starts, sleeping on leads, and pressure differences 21:22 Everyone backtracks sometimes: gear, coaches, and sports takes 25:06 “54” spin vs holes played; player-lens view on 72 vs 54 26:21 The game-within-the-game over 72 holes; form building before majors 27:16 Major-exemption math and why results at the majors are the judge 33:13 Expectation-setting for LIV at the Masters and beyond 34:19 Shift to DP World Tour: Rahm/Hatton appeals, fines, and Ryder Cup stakes 35:36 DPWT's position in the ecosystem: partner with PGA Tour or pivot toward LIV? 40:03 Funding realities, TV product challenges, and sustainability questions 41:12 What if DPWT had been the Saudi-backed “strong international tour”? 42:42 US TV windows vs international schedules; business trade-offs 45:20 Team-golf ideas: legends + current pros + LPGA, or nations-based squads 46:47 Nations/home-game model and why fans might care more 47:35 Make it a fun product, not an OWGR product; formats beyond 72-hole stroke play 50:05 Borrowing from what works in modern golf content without breaking broadcast logic 51:26 Tape delay vs betting/live; what matters for engagement and sponsors 53:14 Bottom line: does the 72-hole shift simply aim at better major results? 53:41 Has LIV created a star?

Much to the dismay of one YouTube commenter, Andy declares this as yet another Victory Monday episode! He's excited about the latest Bears comeback win but instead eggs Brendan and PJ on to discuss the Tank Bowl between the Jets and Browns on Sunday. After a quick recap of the misery at the Meadowlands, Andy and Brendan move into a weekend recap of all things pro golf. "Benny Booms" secured his third win of the calendar year at the World Wide Technology Championship with a 63 on Sunday, moving into the OWGR top ten and bumping Collin Morikawa out. Griffin's breakout 2025 is discussed at length, and Andy and Brendan try to figure out how likely he is to win a major next season. On the DP World Tour, Aaron Rai took down Tommy Fleetwood in a playoff at the HSBC Abu Dhabi to win the first playoff event. Rory McIlroy made things interesting with a 62 on Sunday, falling one shot short of the playoff. Brendan credits Rory for staying in the fight after a season full of wins which may make a random DPWT event seem somewhat meaningless. The rains did NOT bless the LPGA's Toto Japan Classic. Weather caused the final round to be stopped while it was in progress and the tournament reverted back to the 54 hole scores as the final leaderboard. This led to a playoff conducted on a makeshift 130-yard "par 3" that was actually a rain-soaked par 5. Andy pleads with the LPGA's new commissioner to fix the league's recurring issues and maybe consider playing more events in Asia due to great fan turnouts. Min Woo Lee announced that he will be playing on the PGA Tour for 2026, putting to bed any rumors of his departure for a LIV contract. This Dr. Chipinski storyline segues nicely into some TGL talk before NFL Minute rounds out this episode with a new Andy conspiracy about Aaron Rodgers.

Andy and Brendan! once again went LIVE on YouTube for one of the best days of the year: the annual golf Halloween costumes episode. Before diving into some ideas celebrating the best in golf for 2025, the two quickly run through the Schedule for the Week containing just two events for the final week in October. They then move to some recent news, highlighting Kai Trump's LPGA sponsor exemption into The Annika in November. Andy and Brendan call out the continued use of sponsor exemptions on all tours and note that this could not be a an actual competitive exemption. Elsewhere on the LPGA, the Grant Thornton Invitational teams are out, pairing FSU studs Lottie Woad and Luke Clanton, Canadians Brooke Henderson and Corey Conners, and more. For the last bit of news, it was announced that the Old Course will be adding new tees in an effort to make the course longer for the 155th Open. This opens the floodgates for a discussion about the distance problem in golf with Brendan calling this a "five-alarm fire" that should not be celebrated by media and fans alike. PJ is tapped to explain the 2026 Champions Tour schedule that may - or may not - have Tiger Woods in its plans before Andy forces him to rank his top five Halloween candies. The three then present their golf-adjacent Halloween costume ideas, covering subjects like Lucas "King of Takes" Glover, Happy Gilmore*, the Crentist, Keegan Bradley's suitcase, and much, much more. Listener submissions will be read and judged on Friday's episode for a gift card to the Fried Egg Golf Pro Shop.
Joining me on this episode it was a pleasure to be joined by 2020 AIG Women's Open champion Sophia Popov who bares all in this incredible raw and honest story about the highest highs of winning in a remarkable fairytale story at Royal Troon to finding out finally after 3 years she was diagnosed with Lyme Disease. Sophia was born in Boston, Massachusetts but moved to the Karlsruhe district in Germany at the age of 4 where she would compete in numerous competitions as a German player although has now stayed in Arizona for a number of years. Sophia would have success in her earlier years representing Team Europe at 2009 Junior Solheim Cup which included Leona Maguire & Klara Spilkova, she also won the 2010 International European Ladies Amateur Championship. Sophia would go to University of South California representing USC Trojans and would play a part of 2x Espirito Santo Trophy's & 3x European Ladies' Amateur Team Championships for Germany and won 2x Vagliano Trophy's for Team Europe as well as winning numerous collegiate titles. In 2014 Sophia would turn pro at her home event on LET at German Masters and would win both a LET card & LPGA card for 2015 before disaster struck the early signs of fatigue, multiple pains and lack of appetite left Sophia feeling pretty frail and it would take 3 years to have a diagnosis of deadly Lyme Disease and now raises much needed awareness on Lyme Disease as an advocate. In 2020 while on Symetra Tour just before the height of Covid 19 Pandemic it would come at a great time for Popov as it meant being still able to practice fully in her state of Arizona where Cactus Tour mini tour events were still taking place for player which included some top LPGA pros from Arizona area including 3x major champion Anna Nordqvist & Carlota Ciganda playing a couple. This gave Sophia a platform to stay competitive and it would pay off winning 3x Cactus Tour events before Tour Golf made a comeback and would finish well at Marathon Classic which would get Sophia into 2020 AIG Women's Open at Royal Troon, the rest as they say is history as Sophia Popov would overcome all the odds to complete a truly remarkable feat coming from unknown pro to Major Champion defeating Jasmine Suwannapura by 2 shots to etch her name in the history books forever, truly one of the most unbelievable tales. This year back playing on Epson Tour in Arizona would see Popov win Carlisle Arizona Women's Classic just a little over a year after giving birth to her little girl Maya and what makes the story even better is Sophia won the event on Mother's Day of all days to win in front of her daughter. Please be sure to share this fantastic episode around as we try to tell the full story of Sophia Popov. Listen/Download on all the usual platforms and let's spread the word, one of the best episodes i've done on here!
This Wednesday episode was once again recorded LIVE on YouTube in an effort to have some fun during "silly season." Andy believes that "golf is back!" and Brendan immediately shares that Dustin Johnson might agree with him. DJ is in the Philippines this week for an Asian Tour event and is excited to grow the game alongside some of his LIV leaguemates and other YouTube golfers. Dustin shared some enlightening thoughts on the host course for this International Series tournament, calling it "a golf course" and allowing his "good caddie" to scout the course and tell him where to hit it. Brendan is giddy about these DJ quotes and gets Andy going on DJ's future in majors now that his exemptions are up. Keegan Bradley is also pondering his future these days, wondering if he'll ever get a chance to play in the Ryder Cup again. At Travelers media day, Keegan shared that the last few weeks have been some of the toughest of his life and that the loss at Bethpage will follow him forever. He did state that his goal is to play at Adare Manor, though, so he's got that going for him for the next two years. A B. Draddy ad read turns into a bit of an Illinois Minute with Andy and Brendan debating if the Illini can find their way into the College Football Playoff this winter. The Schedule for the Week kicks off with the Bank of Utah Championship and the PGA Tour's return to the lava rocks. Andy and Brendan are excited for a weekend of captivating TV viewing at Black Desert Resort with a strong field for a FedEx Fall event. Notably not in the field is Jordan Spieth, who currently sits at 56th in the standings heading into next season. Brendan declares Spieth "MIA" and calls out sponsor exemptions for Signature Events taking away from the fields at events that need big-name players. There's some cocktail golf this week for the east coast in the form of the LPGA's International Crown, and Tommy Gainey is on the bubble of the Champs Tour finals in Phoenix. Brendan runs through some notables for Q-School and Andy anoints the Billy Horschel Invitational Presented by Cisco as the "Event of the Week." In events that have ended, the Butterfield will have a D2 golfer from Lee University in the field after a win at a recent college event. The news roundup begins with Jack Nicklaus winning a $50 million lawsuit, leading to a wider discussion about clubs overspending and youth sports. Lastly, the NBA starts up tonight and the PGA Tour is in Utah, so Andy ends the show with a much-needed Jazz Minute!
In this episode of the Inside the LPGA podcast, hosts Hope Barnett, Adam Stanley, and Emma Talley discuss the upcoming Hanwha LIFEPLUS International Crown, a prestigious team event in women's golf. The conversation covers the event's format, which includes four days of competition with eight teams. The hosts share their excitement about the event being held in Korea, highlighting the strong support for women's golf in the region. They also discuss the addition of a World Team, which includes top players like Brooke Henderson, Lydia Ko, Charley Hull and Wei Ling Hsu. Each host shares their predictions for the event while also covering the unique format of the tournament. Tune in and give your predictions too!
In this episode, we celebrate the remarkable career of Stacy Lewis, a true legend in the world of golf. As she steps away from the LPGA Tour, Stacy reflects on her journey from overcoming scoliosis to becoming a world number one golfer and playing on Tour as a mom. We delve into her most memorable moments, the impact she's had on fellow players, and her plans for life beyond the greens. Don't miss this inspiring conversation with a trailblazer who has left an indelible mark on the sport.

With Andy on the road, Brendan! kicks off this episode with a solo segment focusing on Jon Rahm and his Ryder Cup future. Brendan unpacks the ongoing legal battle between Rahm (and Tyrrell Hatton) and the DP World Tour regarding fines for playing unsanctioned (LIV) events. Rahm has repeatedly stated that he will not be paying these fines and has appealed the DP World Tour's ruling to the point of arbitration. Due to this appeal process, Rahm and Hatton have been able to play in DP World Tour events despite the outstanding fines and were allowed to play for Team Europe at the 2025 Ryder Cup. With the arbitration ruling looming, Brendan looks at whether Rahm's Ryder Cup status and DPWT status is really in jeopardy, and what it would mean for him (and Team Europe) moving forward. Brendan is then joined by Kevin Van Valkenburg for the rest of this Wednesday episode. KVV offers his take on the Rahm discourse and the news that Rahm will not tee it up until LIV's 2026 season kicks off in February. From there, the two run through the Schedule for the Week. Many stars are in India for the DP World Indian Championship in Delhi. Rory, Tommy, Hovland, "Benny Booms," and Brian Harman are among the notables competing at this fall series event. Viktor is back in action after his neck injury at Bethpage and was finally available to speak on the events leading to his Sunday "in the envelope." Elsewhere in golf, the LPGA's Asia swing rolls on with another limited-field event without Nelly Korda, the Champs Tour playoffs kick off in the DMV, and Q-School is ongoing. In news, Cadillac is rumored to be back in the fold for the PGA Tour's return to Doral this year. Brendan and KVV take this as a chance to reminisce about past tournament sponsors they wish would return. Lastly, KVV debuts his new mailbag segment with a few preview questions before expanding on more submissions in an upcoming website column.
This week, Mal sits down with professional golfer Tisha Alyn to talk about the double life she lived while competing on the LPGA tour - hiding her sexuality from the sport she loved, her peers, and even her family. Tish opens up about coming out, the challenges of having a mom who wasn't accepting at first, and how that strained relationship shaped her journey. She also shares how the PGA helped her embrace her identity and how she went on to become a pioneer for queer representation in professional golf.

Andy and Brendan return after a eventful weekend of sports losses and an "uneventful" weekend of pro golf. Andy is still in the dumps after the Cubs loss in the NLDS, but claims a Victory Monday for Chicago anyway. It was an eventful weekend in French Lick, Indiana at the Korn Ferry Tour finals. Andy and Brendan run through the Top 20 bubble and discuss many of the players that earned their PGA Tour cards for next year. They also commend the KFT broadcast crew for bringing something different to viewers before wondering what Brian Rolapp was thinking during his trip to French Lick. On the PGA Tour, Xander Schauffele found his way back to the winner's circle at the Baycurrent Classic in Japan. This was Xander's tenth PGA Tour win, leading to a discussion about how many he'll end up with at the end of his career. Unlike the KFT booth, Andy was less than impressed with the Baycurrent broadcast and calls for more analysts to tell it like it is. Brendan is fired up that the year of Marco Penge rolls on after his big win at the Spanish Open. Penge will now be in next year's Open and Masters and said post-round that he thinks he's set up for success at Augusta. PJ checks on his Masters odds and finds that Penge's priced lower than one recent major champion! In perhaps the biggest news of the week, the LPGA's streak is over. Jeeno Thitikul won the Buick LPGA Shanghai, becoming the first repeat winner of 2025. The greens at this event were under fire all week for poor conditioning and Brendan was excited to see some pros having to handle muni-like conditions. Alex Cjeka won the final Champions Tour event of the regular season and the "senior mules" are unhappy about Brian Rolapp's recent cuts to the pension program. As for the rest of the news from this weekend, it came out that J.J. Spaun was held out of foursomes at the Ryder Cup due to his golf ball. Andy suggests maybe it's time for golf to have just one ball to use like every other sport does. The two then discuss the current state of Tiger Woods following another back surgery and where his place in today's game may be. Will he even play a TGL match again, much less any on-course golf? To end the show, Andy demands that PJ apologize for an abysmal performance from Justin Fields on national television as the Jets remain winless in 2025.
An earlier than usual recording as Eddie is spending all of Monday travelling to India, having received an invitation to play in the DP World Championship in Delhi. He still makes time to join Andrew and Iain to discuss Marco Penge completing his third victory of a remarkable season in Spain. Xander Schauffele is back in the winner's circle after his triumph in Japan and World Number One Jeeno Thitikul becomes the first repeat winner of the LPGA season. In other news, Iain bought a swing training aid and Andrew will not be selling potatoes any time soon.The Chipping Forecast is in association with: www.petermillar.co.ukEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast Hosted on Acast.

Hope Barnett and Andrew Coltart joined the show today. Barnett, who covers the LPGA, talked about the parity on the LPGA this year, how Jeeno Thitikul ascended to #1 in the world, the boxes checked and what's next for Lydia Ko, the future of Lexi Thompson and the year for Nelly Korda. Coltart talked about Rory McIlroy being Europe's all-time best, could Luke Donald be the Ryder Cup captain for two more terms, what stood out to him from the Ryder Cup and the form of many of the LIV players when they play the DP World Tour. We closed the show with our picks for the Baycurrent Classic and unveiled our golf dogs of the week.
DJ, Tron and Randy open the pod with a quick trip around the world of pro golf with a recap of the Sanderson, KFT, Euro, LPGA and Champions tours before we review a litany of post Ryder Cup news and notes including fallout at the PGA of America, leadership of future US teams, the week of Don Rea, and various social media posts and articles. We also talk to Randy about his recent trip to Sand Valley, some personal golf updates and upcoming content releases.

Just when we thought we were out, he pulls us back in! After declaring this podcast done with Don Rea until Year in Review, Brendan starts this episode off with the late-breaking news of Don Rea's karaoke performance after Saturday of the Ryder Cup. According to the Times of London, D-Rabbit reportedly took the mic at his hotel and performed Eminem's "Lose Yourself" in front of player families and more onlookers. Andy is stunned by the song choice, thinking that an Eagles song would be more up Don's alley. Everyone is wondering when and where the video of this historical moment will inevitably come out and PJ is debating on making some calls across Long Island to see if he can procure it. With Don's one-year anniversary as PGA of America president coming up, Andy ponders if he makes it through half of his two-year term. Brendan is aghast at the "Deep State" of European media and PGA of America members who are trying to cancel Don, demanding that this cannot happen, if only for the sake of this podcast. Before running through this week's results, Andy and Brendan also provide an incredible update on the "Lotte at Lottie's" challenge! In actual golf news, Tommy Gainey secured his first win on the Champions Tour and Andy believes that this may mark the end for the senior circuit in more ways than one. Speaking of the Lotte, the LPGA's unique winner streak carries on after non-member sponsor exemption Youmin Hwang took home the win. Big Shot Bob MacIntyre won a rainy, cold Dunhill just a week after battling at Bethpage. The weather was so bad in Scotland that the event was shortened to 54 holes, causing some Pro-Am celebs to walk off the course due to the conditions. On the PGA Tour, Steven Fisk chased down Garrick Higgo at the Sanderson to win his first-ever PGA Tour title. Andy pops PJ about the latest Jets loss and there's some network television discussion to round out this quick Sunday recording.
Andy and Brendan! went LIVE on YouTube for this Friday episode to kick off the post-Ryder Cup weekend. We've received word that the "Lotte at Lottie's" challenge is off to a roaring start, with two listeners finding each other at the bar on Wednesday watching tape delayed coverage of an LPGA event from across the world. As you could probably guess, most of this episode focuses on the continued fallout from the Ryder Cup crowd fiasco and Don Rea's various responses. Andy and Brendan dig into the Don's LinkedIn post responding to criticism, something he's experienced since his days as a Minor League Baseball umpire. "New level, new devil" has now become a staple in the podcast's vocabulary as well. Andy got duped by a photoshop of Rea's potential resignation being discussed on ESPN's "First Take," but Brendan can't imagine a golf world without Don moving forward. Elsewhere in the crowd discourse, PGA of America CEO Derek Sprague spoke to The Athletic about "not hearing" what happened from his luxury box on Saturday. Matt Fitzpatrick and Tyrrell Hatton spoke out prior to the Dunhill, unsatisfied with Don's trophy presentation and ensuing apology. In non-crowd Ryder Cup cleanup, Furyk & Friends has become a bevy of content! AssCap Jim Furyk was unhappy about the green speeds being off at Bethpage and wonders if that was to blame for Team USA's poor putting performance. Stewart Cink also revealed that he interviewed for the 2025 captaincy, only to get ghosted by "special agent" John Wood afterward. Moving on from the Ryder Cup, LIV has reported its financial losses and the numbers have Andy and Brendan wondering where the league goes from here. Things wrap with Golf Advice, including Andy's passionate defense of poker chip ball markers.
Soly, TC, and DJ bring on former NLU Young Hitter Justin Hueber to discuss his run at the USGA Mid-Am and the debate surrounding former professional golfers regaining their amateur status. We also had some fun with random stats from the 2025 PGA Tour Season, recap Michael Kim's win on the DP World Tour, the LPGA washout in Arkansas, and the KFT tournament in Columbus. Then it's on to a back nine where we discuss a few bits of pre-Ryder Cup chatter from Bryson and Rory, the cancellation of the 2026 Sentry, the Masters addition of Amazon Prime to their broadcast partners, and more.

This episode was recorded before NFL kickoff on Sunday, so Victory Monday for the Bears and Browns will have to wait. Andy is still licking his wounds from an ugly Illini loss to Indiana on Saturday night and wonders if winning out would still clinch a playoff spot. PJ is in high spirits after a Syracuse win in Death Valley and an early scouting trip to Bethpage on Saturday morning - only for the Jets to ruin everything again. We wrap up College Football Corner and discuss some wonderful coffee golf at the French Open (presented by FedEx) on Sunday. Michael Kim secured his first win since the 2018 John Deere Classic, edging out Elvis Smylie, Min Woo Lee, and Brooks Koepka. With Kim, Lee, and Koepka dropping in on the DP World Tour to great success, Brendan tries to draw some conclusions about where these fall fields stand overseas. Andy makes the case for a potential unification between the PGA Tour and DP World Tour that would have one points list and a stronger fall schedule. The LPGA had yet another unique result to uphold the streak - a cancelation of the tournament in Arkansas after 18 holes! Brendan has PJ share some scuttlebutt from the early merch preview at Bethpage, including some reporting about the famous sign - a favorite of Jason Garrett. In an actual bit of news, Rory McIlroy spoke with The Guardian and took his chance to pop Bryson DeChambeau ahead of a potential match this week. Rory also says he's "more confident" in a win for Europe now than he was when he made his guarantee in 2023. Andy and Brendan answer some listener questions about the Ryder Cup to close things out before traveling to the great state of New York for this week's festivities. Find our full Ryder Cup preview episode here on Wednesday night!
A light week of golf leads us to this wide-ranging Friday episode, covering a potential new housecat, the return of a broadcast legend, and a legendary Ryder Cup Flashback. Andy and Brendan first discuss the U.S. Mid-Am and the fiery online debate about former pros getting their amateur status reinstated. Andy is adamant that these players should not be able to waltz back into amateur golf and outlines his ideal rules for the situation. Brendan and KVV react to Andy's rulings and wonder if some are too harsh for those looking to continue playing competitive golf after their pro careers end. There's a bit of golf news to cover with LPGA legend Stacy Lewis retiring and the PGA of America bringing the KPMG Women's PGA and the PGA Championship back to Bethpage in the coming years. In much-needed Ryder Cup broadcast news, Sir Nick Faldo will be on the call for NBC next week, teaming with Terry Gannon and Notah Begay for morning sessions. Blockie is also back in the fold for 2026, because of course he is! We'll see him at the AmEx next year. In the spirit of Bob Uecker, a Golf Advice emailer sent along a letter from a ghost of Ryder Cup past to be read before we help one of our favorite football podcasters out with a fantasy football punishment. KVV then unpacks a Flashback Friday segment on the 2004 Ryder Cup war between Phil Mickelson and American captain Hal Sutton, complete with a Texas accent you won't want to miss. Lastly, some Don Rea soundbites send us into the weekend, as only he can.
