Rory is king of Europe again but does this cement his as our best ever ahead of Seve and Faldo?
This is once again a Victory Monday episode of The Shotgun Start as Caleb Williams led a game-winning drive in Minnesota to push the Bears to 7-3 on the year. Andy is absolutely buzzing following the divisional win but was even more excited about the finish of the Butterfield Bermuda Championship on Sunday morning. Adam Schenk hung on against 40 mph winds to secure his first PGA Tour win and guarantee his status for the 2026 season. Andy and Brendan run through an incredible Sunday of television as Tour veterans and young players battled the elements on a small island in the middle of the ocean. They pitch that maybe the Butterfield should be a Signature Event to give fans a chance to watch the best players in the world try to figure out the wind patterns for four days of competition. Not to be outdone, the DP World Tour Championship went to a playoff between Rory McIlroy and Matt Fitzpatrick. Fitz ended up with the win, putting a bow on a season that had him fall outside the top 80 in OWGR only to now have him back inside the top 25 heading into the new year. Andy and Brendan then take a look at the "Year of Rory" following his seventh Race to Dubai title, tying Seve's mark for second place all time. Potential Ryder Cup captain Stewart Cink chased down Steven Alker in Phoenix to become the first player since 2017 to win both the Schwab Cup Championship and the season-long honors. Champions Tour Minute also includes some Tiger Woods chatter following a Golfweek article published on Friday about his potential involvement on the senior circuit in 2026. This episode closes with a brief bit of news involving a back surgery for Justin Thomas that will keep him out of action for the first part of next season.
Die vyfmalige major-kampioen, Rory McIlroy, het die Race to Dubai-titel die vierde agtereenvolgende jaar en die sewende keer in sy loopbaan gewen. Die Noord-Ier was naaswenner in die seisoen se laaste DP World Tour-kampioenskap in Dubai, wat Matt Fitzpatrick van Engeland in ʼn uitspeelronde gewen het. Die Switser, Ludvig Åberg, en Tommy Fleetwood van Engeland deel die derde plek. McIlroy sê dis ʼn eer om die Spanjaard, Seve Ballesteros, se kerf van ses titels verby te steek:

Welcome to The Golfing Mind, the podcast that explores the psychology of golf and the mental habits that separate great players from the rest. Every golfer, from club amateur to major champion, knows what it feels like to lose confidence. One week, the swing feels effortless, the next it's as if you've forgotten how to play. It's a lonely, frustrating place — but it's also part of the game. What matters isn't avoiding slumps, it's knowing how to recover from them. In today's episode, we're looking at how to rebuild self-belief when your confidence has faded. We'll explore the mental traps that make slumps worse, practical steps to restore trust in your swing, and how great players — from Rory McIlroy to Rickie Fowler — found their way back after setbacks. Confidence isn't a mysterious gift reserved for the lucky few. It's something you can rebuild, step by step, with the right mindset and habits. So if you've ever stood over the ball thinking, “What happened to my game?”, this episode is for you. Let's talk about how to rediscover your belief — and your best golf. https://www.siegergolf.com/online-courses Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
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.
Ireland's world cup dream remains alive as the Heimer Hallgrimsson's side defeat Portugal two nil last night. It was a drama filled game as Cristiano Ronaldo was given his first ever red card for Portugal. Meanwhile, it's the return of the Mack as Andy Farrell names his squads ahead of Ireland's game against Australia in the Aviva stadium this weekend. And in golf, Rory McIlroy is hoping for a fourth consecutive race to Dubai title as he trails behind Michael Kim.All the sport with Shane Hannon and Keith Treacy, former Ireland International footballer.
In this episode of The Entrepreneur Experiment, Gary Fox sits down with Ryan Casey, the founder of C11 Recovery — one of Ireland's fastest-growing performance and recovery brands. From spending his days as an electrician to working with Rory McIlroy, Manchester City, Munster Rugby, and the DP World Tour, Ryan's journey is a masterclass in turning grit into global growth. In just three years, he's built a company that began with three plastic tubs and a few compression boots into a multimillion-euro recovery business operating in Ireland, the UK, and the Middle East. Ryan shares how he went from driving a van across Ireland doing free sessions to closing deals in Dubai, the mindset that helped him thrive under pressure, and why he believes confidence and consistency are the ultimate unfair advantages. If you're building from scratch, navigating uncertainty, or trying to turn momentum into mastery — this episode is a must-listen. Show Notes In this episode, we cover:
John Duggan is joined by Cameron Hill and Vinny Perth to bring you all of today's news from the world of sport on a day where Andy Farrell announced his squad for Saturday's test against Australia and Ireland's last home game of the year against Portugal as well as the first round for Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry at the DP World Tour Championship
Andy and Brendan! are joined by "The Boys" for this Wednesday episode in honor of the Butterfield Bermuda Championship. Andy is especially jazzed after a big Packers loss on national TV moving the Bears into a tie for first place in the NFC North. He attempts to once again besmirch Aaron Rodgers but quickly is moved to golf talk with a loaded schedule of events to discuss. Brendan attempts to deem the Butterfield as the "Event of the Week" but is shamed into giving it to the Schwab Cup Finals by Andy as a nod to PJ's continued Champions Tour coverage. Andy, Brendan, and Joseph LaMagna run through the field in Bermuda and Brendan shares his investigation into how some amateurs found their way into the event. The DP World Tour finals are next up on the "Schedule of the Week," with Rory McIlroy poised to secure yet another Race to Dubai win. The DPWT announced the new "Rory McIlroy Award" on Tuesday, now given to the European with the best performance across a year's four majors. To Brendan and PJ's surprise, Joseph reveals that Rory is ineligible for this award, leading to questions about why this even exists. The ANNIKA Driven by Gainbridge at the Pelican has made plenty of headlines due to a Kai Trump sponsor exemption and Caitlin Clark's Pro-Am round having extended coverage on Golf Channel. Finally, PJ previews the Charles Schwab Cup Championship as the 2025 Champions Tour season comes to a close. Andy makes plans for next year's swan song at Phoenix Country Club that involves PJ running a 5K race to raise money for colon cancer research. There's a brief discussion of some news surrounding the now-announced teams for the "Golf Channel Games," but Joseph isn't sure what to make of this made-for-TV spectacle. "The Boys" are then put on the hot seat by Andy and Brendan as they're quizzed about the future of "Lunch with The Boys," the Indianapolis Colts, and more.
On this week's edition of the podcast we discuss the DP World Tour Q-School results and why Ireland seems to be struggling to produce players ready for Europe's top level after three successive years of no cards.The DP World Tour reaches its finale as Rory McIlroy chases a seventh Race to Dubai crown which would move him to within one of Collin Montgomerie's record eighth. Does the Race to Dubai still mean as much? And if so have we given Montgomerie's dominance enough credit given the depth of talent on the old European Tour.There are also card permutations on both sides of the Atlantic as Seamus Power resumes his quest to retain his PGA Tour playing rights as five Irish bid for Alps Tour status. Leona Maguire looks to secure her spot in the LPGA Tour season finale.
The following is an extract from an interview with Rory McIlroy on how conversations with Bob Rotella have helped his game. "We are talking about not getting too much into results and outcomes, we talk about trying to chase a feeling on the golf course. Like if you're on the golf course, what way do you want to feel when you're playing golf. That's something that is a - it's not something I obviously just do here, but I do every week that I compete. If I can chase that feeling and make that the important thing, then hopefully the golf will take care of itself". Source: Golf News UK - Masters Inteview: Rory McIlroy I have experienced this feeling on the golf course, but not nearly as often as I would like. That feeling, in my words, is best described as playing effortlessly without thoughts of technique, swing planes, or score, etc. That's the day you will smile on the course and have fun with those around you. While playing your best golf. It's never about the score; it's about playing Golf effortlessly. (Or whatever your sport is.) Realising that this is what you are capable of, more often with the right thoughts or no thought process, just doing what comes naturally. Why am I having this conversation with you? About my thoughts on golf? Because I believe the same advice applies when speaking in public. I often encounter people who want or need to be more confident and speak in front of groups, but are hesitant or nervous about doing so. Why? Because I believe they have experienced what people describe as "helpful advice". This advice usually starts with "Let me provide you with some constructive criticism". (Constructive criticism is criticism with the word constructive added to soften the blow - it does not!) Speak slower, speak quicker, louder; don't put your hands in your pockets, make eye contact, imagine your audience is naked, etc., etc. You know the drill. All of the above advice merely increases people's nervousness and diverts the focus from your purpose and reason for speaking to this group. Golf Lesson: Anyone who has experienced a golf lesson from a friend will know the drill: keep your head down, turn from the waist, wait for your shoulders to touch your chin, finish high, all leading to total confusion and exasperation. My wife went to a very well-known golf professional for a lesson some years ago, which consisted of him telling her to 'hit down on the ball' for the whole lesson. The problem was that she did not know what he meant by 'hit down on the ball', and he did not explain or demonstrate; he just assumed she understood. Good coaches, firstly, listen to understand and then provide simple, clear instructions enabling you to progress. Bob Rotella Bob Rotella says you should do this when standing over your golf ball on the course. Look at the target Look at the ball Swing the club What this series of actions does is clear your mind of all the junk usually going around in your head. The advice I provide to my clients as part of their preparation is also a three-step process. Research your audience You know your subject/topic; otherwise, you would not be asked to speak Believe in yourself and they will BELIEVE in you Like Bob Rotella, I aim to keep my clients' heads clear of all the noise and stress that are usually associated with speaking to a group. PS Golf is not a game of perfect, and neither will you be perfect when presenting, but you can be BELIEVABLE and that is what audiences WANT!

Matt Every and Tim Barter joined Gary Williams on today's show. Every was up first and talked about what he has learned about the tour since leaving it as a player; what he doesn't love about analytics, his fandom of Ben Griffin and that he feels there needs to be a penalty for playing bad golf and favors a cut no matter the event. Barter talked about Rory McIlroy's chase for a 7th Order of Merit that could culminate in Dubai this weekend; his thoughts on Tommy Fleetwood moving to an elite level; his love and appreciation of Justin Rose; the play of Bob McIntyre and if Luke Donald will pursue a third consecutive Ryder Cup captaincy.
The Internet Invitational has taken YouTube and the golf world by storm. We will have a heated discussion about the event and if Brad Dalke could play on the PGA Tour. Aaron Rai won in Abu Dhabi over Tommy Fleetwood with a birdie on the first playoff hole. Rory McIlroy fired a -10 in the final round to almost get into the playoff but fell a shot short at the 2nd to last event of the DP World Tour season. Ben Griffin, using a new putter this week, earned his 3rd tour victory of 2025, joining only Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy in doing so this year. We will talk about all of these things and more on this episode if the Break80 Podcast. Subscribe to the Break80 Podcast on Apple & Spotify for weekly golf content. Learn more about your ad choices.

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.

Colm Boohig from Off The Ball looks back on the weekend of sport.

Across two hours, he opens up about the lessons, the pressure, and the people who helped him through it all - including his father, Grant Fox, whose reflections bring the conversation full circle.This is an honest, personal look at one of New Zealand's most successful athletes - a conversation about golf, resilience and what really matters when the cameras are off.This episode is brought to you by the TAB.

This Friday episode brings a game of Quote Roulette and the conclusion of the first-ever "Draft Week" to start your weekend. Brendan is ready to skip forward to Sunday afternoon's big Jets-Browns tilt at MetLife Stadium with rumors swirling that he may meet up with PJ to watch the game in-person. Andy and Brendan run through the early leaderboards for the HSBC Abu Dhabi Championship and World Wide Technology Championship before diving into press conference clippings from around the world. Rory McIlroy wasn't impressed by LIV's move to 72 holes and doesn't think they'll be getting too many OWGR points as things currently stand. Lee Westwood took exception to these remarks by the Masters champion, saying that Rory may change his mind next week on whatever he said anyway. Westy believes that the LIV fans are the biggest winners of this "innovation" as they'll be seeing an extra day of golf! Paul McGinley spoke to Bunkered about the impending DP World Tour fine decision on players like Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton. McGinley believes there are larger things at play for the future of the DP World Tour's existence and acknowledges that making Ryder Cup players be members is one of few cards the Euro circuit has left. Perhaps most importantly, there was some late-night beef between Joe Mayo and the Short Game Chef on Instagram on Wednesday night. In a now-deleted Instagram post, Mayo started a grease fire in the Chef's kitchen, airing out some past texts and conversations and calling out the Chef's teachings. Andy and Brendan are giddy about this long-winded IG caption and lose it when Joseph LaMagna joins in to share a comment about "extra Mayo." Lastly, the President of the PGA of America spoke to the 31,000 or 34,000 or 37,000 members this week and apologized for "harming the association" in past months. We play the audio of this apology and have added it to the soundboard. "Draft Week" wraps up with a double whammy and a new guest: Joseph joins Andy, Brendan, and PJ to draft 2026 Pro Golf Venues AND the best players in the world age 28-and-younger.
A busy weekend of sport ahead, with Ireland taking on Japan in the rugby, Manchester City facing off with Liverpool in the Premier league, Rory McIlroy heads to Abu Dhabi for the HSBC Championship, the F1 heads to Brazil, and Shamrock rovers aim for a double as they play Cork City. Colm Boohig from Off The Ball looks ahead to the weekend of sport.
Gholf: Die vyfmalige major-kampioen, Rory McIlroy, beskryf LIV Gholf se besluit om sy toernooi van volgende jaar na 72 putjies uit te brei as eienaardig. Dit kan die Saoedi-Arabies-gesteunde liga se poging versterk om erken te word op die amptelike wêreldranglys, wat van die uiterste belang is omdat die vier majors dit gebruik om hulle spelerslys te bepaal. McIlroy, wat dié week die 12de keer in 'n toernooi in Abu Dhabi speel, bevraagteken hoeveel ranglyspunte beskikbaar gaan wees in LIV-toernooie:
What happens when AI takes a swing at golf instruction?In this episode of the Athletic Motion Golf podcast, Mike Granato and Shaun Webb break down Rory McIlroy's legendary swing—but with a twist. They asked ChatGPT to do the analysis first.
Will Doctor gives you the sharpest preview for the week 45 action in the world of golf. Golf Preview Podcast: Worldwide Technology & Abu Dhabi HSBC Championships This week's Golf Preview Podcast with host Will Doctor took listeners around the globe for twin tournaments—the PGA Tour's Worldwide Technology Championship in Cabo and the DP World Tour's Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship—pairing sharp betting insight with a clear read on form, course fit, and odds value. Will opened with the major headline that LIV Golf will expand to 72 holes in 2026, a necessary step toward earning official world ranking points. He applauded the move but joked that LIV must “ditch the shotgun start, put their pants back on, and bump fields to 125 players” to be taken seriously. Turning to Cabo's El Cardinal at Diamante, Will dissected wide fairways, coastal winds, and massive 8,000-square-foot greens that demand patience and putting precision on paspalum. He ran through the favorites—Ben Griffin at 13-1, J.J. Spahn at 14-1, and Siwoo Kim at 20-1—praising their ball-striking while noting putting woes make them risky pre-tournament bets. Rico Hoey and Michael Thorbjornsen earned honorable mentions for potential live plays, while Max Graceman's length and putting prowess made him a strong lineup anchor despite inflated odds. Will's card featured Matt Kuchar outright at 60-1 on FanDuel, citing Kuchar's coastal pedigree, recent form, and runner-up finish at Diamante two years ago. He paired that with Max Graceman top-10 (+200) and Thorbjornsen top-10 (+275), plus a sleeper top-20 on Isaiah Salenda at +333, banking on his paspalum putting bounce-back. His lone matchup pick was David Ford over Chandler Phillips (–105), backing the rookie's consistency off the tee and elite putting splits. In Abu Dhabi, Will spotlighted Rory McIlroy (6-1), Tommy Fleetwood (7-1), and Tyrrell Hatton (9-1) as clear threats at Yas Links, with Matt Fitzpatrick (18-1) his top outright due to sustained top-10 consistency and motivation to close the season strong. Rafa Cabrera-Bello rounded out his picks with a top-20 (+240) and long-shot outright (200-1), leaning on course history and renewed confidence with the putter. Will closed by promoting Pregame's EAGLE20 discount code and teasing next week's Bermuda and Dubai finales. With humor, precision, and elite statistical depth, the podcast offered a comprehensive blueprint for golf bettors navigating late-season chaos—smart, fast, and perfectly dialed in to the global game.

Tiger Woods' latest surgery has fans asking if we've finally reached the end of an era—and his own words might confirm it. In this week's episode of The Golf Podcast, we ask the question every golf fan is wondering — is this finally the end for Tiger Woods? After undergoing yet another back surgery to replace a collapsed disc, Tiger's future in competitive golf looks more uncertain than ever. At 49 years old and approaching eligibility for the PGA Tour Champions, Tiger has opened up about his biggest regret from years of relentless training and physical strain — running too much early in his career, which he now believes contributed to many of his knee and back problems. In this episode, we're breaking down Tiger's long injury timeline, his cryptic comments about returning to golf, and what this latest setback could mean for his career. Could his next chapter be as a mentor, designer, or even a full-time dad to Charlie Woods? And more importantly, does professional golf still need Tiger to thrive? We explore how stars like Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy have carried the torch, the rise of new golf ventures like TGL and Tomorrow Sports, and whether the game has finally moved beyond its Tiger era.

Will Doctor the sharpest golf mind in the game gets you ready with all his picks for the DP World Tour Championship Will Doctor returns on Pregame's Golf Preview Podcast to cover the DP World Tour India Championship at Delhi Golf Club, a short, tight thinker's course demanding accuracy and elite Bermuda putting. Rory McIlroy headlines the field at +550 after his Ryder Cup appearance, while Tommy Fleetwood, Ben Griffin, Victor Hovland, and Brian Harman follow on the odds board. Doctor candidly admits his recent slump—down 6.7 units after a rough run of misses in Japan and Spain—but aims to bounce back in India. He reviews poor picks like Eric Cole at the Bay Current, Michael Kim's top-ten miss, and Hideki Matsuyama's near miss on the Japanese leaderboard. Despite Christian Bezuidenhout's top-ten and some solid form from Patrick Reed and young star Angel Ayora, Doctor's recent cards have fallen short. In Spain, Marco Penge won, and Doctor's outrights in the DP and Korn Ferry Tour events all missed, dropping another 11 units. Shifting focus, he outlines Delhi's setup—tight fairways, strategic play, and little need for drivers—and identifies players with precise ball-striking and solid putting as keys to victory. McIlroy's length gives him an edge even with fewer drivers, but Doctor is cautious given Rory's layoff. Fleetwood at +675 is his top choice among favorites due to accuracy, sixth in strokes gained approach, and proven Bermuda success at East Lake. Griffin, despite a stellar season and two wins, has too long a layoff to back pre-tournament. Hovland, nursing a neck injury, is another fade despite elite approach stats, as Doctor avoids risk. Harman fits perfectly with his precision and prior success on Bermuda layouts but is also a pass due to recent inactivity. Doctor's first “pick to place” is Denmark's Jeff Winther top 20 at +260 for his accuracy and positive recent putting form, including a top-10 in India last year. His second placement pick is India's Anirban Lahiri top 10 at +260, praising Lahiri's form from LIV events and strong national open history despite criticizing LIV's limited fields. For outrights, Doctor backs Fleetwood to win at +675, Ayora at 30-1 after consecutive top-tens and improving putting, and Joel Girrbach at 120-1 as a sleeper with renewed iron play and putting confidence after a solo third in Madrid. He offers a football promo—code DRINK20 for $20 off an all-access package—before revealing his sleeper, Jeong Weon Ko top 10 at 12-1, citing his success in India and strong ball-striking. His best bet is Ayora top 10 at +225 on MGM, expecting the Spanish prodigy to contend again. Doctor concludes optimistic about finding form in Delhi, emphasizing control off the tee, confident approach play, and putting consistency on Bermuda as the key to cashing in.

Napheesa Collier went scorched earth. In her season exit interview, she publicly called out Cathy Engelbert and WNBA leadership for their lack of accountability around some of the most pressing issues facing players.

The dust is beginning to settle from the "biggest Ryder Cup ever" and the PGA of America has found itself in the crosshairs of everyone in golf. The organization has still not formally acknowledged anything regarding fan behavior or experience at Bethpage, but a Don Rea interview from Sunday morning has surfaced and provides Andy and Brendan with plenty of fodder. The President of the 31,000 thought that you could find fans like the ones on Saturday at a "youth soccer game" and claimed that he hadn't heard any of the barbs thrown at Rory McIlroy during the week. He wrapped up his chat with BBC by saying that "golf is the engine of good," which sets Andy and Brendan off to the races. They look back at the week as a whole and wonder what the PGA of America's true focus was on and whether the organization truly cared about putting on a quality golf tournament. The two discuss where the Ryder Cup should go from here and whether it needs to be sold or licensed to another company for future installments in the United States. After a complete dissection of Mr. Rea's quotes, it's back to normal in golf with plenty on the Schedule for the Week. It's chicken time at the Sanderson, you can go watch the Lotte at Lottie's, and Furyk & Friends has a distinct Ryder Cup feel! Plenty of LIV players and Ryder Cuppers will play at the Dunhill Links on the DP World Tour with celebs like Wayne Gretzky, Bill Murray, and the bassist from Linkin Park. A brief Playoff Baseball minute sends us home for this Wednesday episode with both the Guardians and Cubs starting their runs on Tuesday afternoon. Always remember, by listening to this podcast, you're part of the engine of good!

Andy and Brendan have PLENTY to talk about after a full, buzzing Saturday at the Ryder Cup despite the blowout on the scoreboard. They jump immediately into the testy exchange between Bryson DeChambeau, Justin Rose, caddies, Francesco Molinari, and others during another winning afternoon for Europe. They dissect Keegan's miscues with lineups and management but wonder if it would have mattered given Europe's play. They also go into the extremely hostile crowds, the constant abuse of Rory McIlroy and the opponent, and discuss how bad it got out there and how much it crossed the line. KVV and LaMagna join late to relay some of their notes from their days inside the ropes before a rambling discussion on Russ Henley, Rose, New England sports analogies, and much more in this rollicking Saturday night episode.
