Well, after a week, the PGA Tour is back. The Safeway Open is no more,  in steps the Fortinet. Napa, CA, wine country. Pat Perez might just mess around and win this thing.  The Ryder Cup teams are now official, and I have to say, the U.S. team is absolutely loaded. I mean, how do we lose? (Important to note: I said that when we went and got our asses kicked in France a few years ago).  Patrick Reed is at it again, liking tweets that were directed right at Stricker for not picking him for the squad. Because of course he did.  And lots more!

In this episode, I got to go to Silverado Golf Resort to buy a few Safeway Open hats.  But the bonus was to get to practice for a little bit of time on the Silverado Golf Resort practice putting green, which is a PGA Tour practice putting green.  This was a privilege to be able to practice on because I was not a paying golfer but I did spend money in the golf shop.  Anyway, I also got to see some of Johnny Miller's golf clubs from his 1976 British Open victory.  Thanks for listening to The Knackered Golfist Podcast.  

A few months back, caddie Todd Montoya (Brian Stuard) entered a raffle for the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Naturally, Montoya forgot he entered that raffle. He was reminded in a big way two weeks ago while in Napa, California for the Safeway Open when he received a call notifying him that he won two of the raffle items: 1. a pre-paid credit card for $1,000; 2. The grand prize -- a $505,000 dream home. What?! In this episode of 'Under the Strap,' Montoya tells host T.J. Auclair about all the emotions that went through his head when he learned of his good fortune, talks to us about his career as a caddie dating back to 2001, his great nicknames and some hilarious on-course stories like the player who once yelled at his caddie for... sweating.

Final round of the US Open at Winged Foot and BK is here with some great perspectives and insights leading into what should be a great finishing round.  Plus, an interview with Atlanta's own Stewart Cink following his win last weekend at the Safeway Open.

With not having performed her best since returning back to competition following the LPGA Tour's restart, Brooke Henderson found herself in the final group on Sunday at the ANA Inspiration seeking her second major championship title. Stewart Cink ends his 11-year win drought at the first event of the 2020-2021 PGA Tour season at the Safeway Open for his first victory since the 2009 British Open, and we look forward to next week's US Open where 4 Canadians will be competing at Winged Foot.

We are back! As we all moved all over the place, we had some technical planning to iron out, but we are here and ready to go! The Lions imploded, and we break down that game to the fullest extent. We covered other NFL news before transitioning to college football. The B12 embarrassed itself, and we also broke down the teams and players that impressed the most in Week 1 (or 2). And will the Big Ten ever come back? After a brief transition to the golf action at the Safeway Open, we picked the Monday Night Football winners. Our final thoughts included MSU Football recruiting, the NBA Playoffs and the Tigers getting blown out all week long. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tuoritalk/support

We briefly break down the tournament, and quickly transition into our thoughts on the upcoming US Open, including: Brooks Koepka withdraws from US Open Scottie Scheffler will miss due to positive COVID test Which Korn Ferry golfers may make noise at the US Open? What to expect from Winged Foot First thoughts on players to watch And much, much more. Intro and extro music by Wool on Wolves.

47 year old Stewart Cink won the 2020 Safeway Open at Silverado this week.  His success comes after his last win which was at the 2009 British Open at Turnberry in Ayrshire, Scotland.  His win was a family affair as his son Reagan worked the bag as his caddie.  It was also great to get a glimpse of the up and coming Harry Higgs as a swashbuckling Texan whose style of play is a bit more sassy than the average PGA Tour player.  His antics included an Albatross on the 9th hole on Friday.  This was pleasant to see.  Thanks for listening to The Knackered Golfist!  Please subscribe and give me a LIKE on iTunes and Spotify.

Holly and Will discuss Hideki Matsuyama's win at the WGC- HSBC Champions event by seven strokes. Matsuyama finished second in the event prior to the WGC. The duo talk about another young talent who notched his first win on Tour, Cody Gribble won the Sanderson Farms Championship by four strokes.  A quick look around the Tours, Shanshan Feng won in Malaysia on the LPGA Tour. Feng is a student at the Orlando area Gary Gilchrist Academy where Will Perry used to work. Juli Inkster won on the Legends Tour and Tom Pernice Jr won the first of the final 3 Champions Tour events of the season for the Charles Schwab Cup title.  In the second segment, Bob Harig, ESPN.com, calls in to talk with Holly and Will. Bob is a long time Cubs fan. Holly asks Bob about Hideki Matsuyama's win and how he has played lately. When Hideki Matsuyama can putt well, he is a force to be reckoned with. He won the Asian Amateur twice. Holly and Bob talked about Hideki taking a backseat to Jordan Spieth and the others who have dominated over the past few years.  Will asks Bob which Major event fits Hideki's game? He is a long hitter off the tee. Bob says that Hideki can win the Open Championship or any of the majors if he could get his putting dialed in. Bob talks about how tough it is coming from Japan and trying to learn the language in the U.S. as well as adapt here is a very tough task for anyone.  Holly asks Bob about Tiger's official announcement that he will play in the Hero World Challenge. Also the two discuss Tiger's chipping issues and whether there is any truth to the rumors.  Bob talks about how so much clamor over Tiger was made officially announced that he was going to play. Everyone expected him to after he said that he would. Tiger still has four more weeks to get ready for the tourney. Bob said that it was a shame that Tiger couldn't play at the Safeway and get all the media attention surrounding his return out of the way.  Bob said to expect a lot out of Tiger's game when he first comes back. It would be silly to expect it. It is going to take some time for him to get comfortable inside the ropes again. In the third segment of this week's show Terrie Purdum, Southern Golf Central Magazine's publisher, calls in from the Villages to talk about the latest issue that is a tribute to Arnold Palmer. Terrie and Turf Life have a booth at all the local tournaments like The PNC Father and Son Tournament and the CME Title Holders in Naples. Stop by the booth and pick up bottles of free sunscreen.  Terrie also talks about youth golf sensation Bella Dovhey from Oviedo, Fla, whose interview with The King is published in this month's commemorative issue of Southern Golf Central Magazine (pages 10-11). Bella is also an incredible young golfer who has won 3 Jr World Championships and many other tournaments in U.S. Kids Golf. In the final segment of this week's show Todd Lewis, The Golf Channel, calls in to help wrap up another hour of intelligent golf talk. Holly asks Todd about Cody Gribble's win on the PGA Tour. Gribble is from Texas and played alongside Jordan Spieth when they won the National Championship. Todd is amazed of how ready that the players who come out of college today and are ready to play so well on the Tours. Will asks Todd about some other young players who may play well this week at the Shriners. Todd says to watch for Grason Murray, who won his first event on the Web.com Tour in September.  Todd talks about Tiger Woods. Unlike any other player, every swing if not every step Tiger Woods makes will be shown on the Golf Channel and he is the only player in the world like that. So when he pulled out of the Safeway Open, Todd says that Tiger wasn't close to being to his level of play that he wanted to be. Todd said that the starts Tiger wanted to have this fall at the safeway, in Turkey and at the Heroes World Challenge were more to prepare him for 2017. Will and Holly both pick Ryan Moore to win this week's Shriners Hospitals for Children Open and Will's backup pick is Scott Piercy, Holly's second pick is Smylie Kaufman.

Tiger Woods gave Bay Area golf fans a few days notice that he wound be missing the Safeway Open at Silverado Resort, citing that his game was not where he wanted it to be for his PGA Tour return.  Host Kyle and his longtime golf buddy Kev talk about what it means for Tiger to delay his PGA Tour comeback, and how golf fans should feel about his decision to postpone his comeback until he feels confident in his game. In addition, a recent report from The Golf Channel's Matt Ginella informs us that a new 18-hole course could be in play for the already spectacular Bandon Dunes Golf Resort.  Kev and Kyle reflect on their past experience at 'The Sheep Ranch', and whether building a regulation golf course in it's place is good or bad for golf.   This episode is proudly presented by GolfGuide.net and Golf Guide Magazine.

Holly asks Todd what his thought are about Tiger withdrawing from that event. Todd says that anytime the world's most popular player ... the guy who is the most popular in this generation, with 79 PGA Tour wins and 14 Major championships, uses the word vulnerable to describe his game, then you understand that he is not ready to play on the world's greatest stage.  Todd said that he spoke with several PGA Tour veterans including Phil Mickelson who said that they have played on Tour when their game was vulnerable. Todd says the difference is that everything Tiger does is very scrutinized ... and maybe Tiger learned his lesson when he tried to come back a couple of years ago. Todd thinks Tiger wants to be completely ready and he is not there at this point. Todd say he really doesn't think it's a body issue or injury. Holly, Will and Todd talked about Tiger's shift in being more transparent about the status of his game. More than he was when he was younger.  Holly asks Todd about the Safeway and who might win. He shares that Phil Mickelson is bringing some momentum from the Ryder Cup and the course might favor Phil's game.

From the time Tiger committed to the event until the day he withdrew. There are a lot of really good golfers competing in the Safeway. Does it make him scared or does it make him smart?  The event was big news and people bought tickets to the event who would not have and now are disappointed that they won't see Tiger.  The course requires accuracy off the tee and that is something that Tiger hasn't been that consistent with of late. The course is flat and somewhat tight and not that wide. Ted said keeping it in the fairway is very important playing this Robert Trent Jones course. Holly asks Ted why Tiger may not have chosen to compete in one of the five other PGA Tour events in the wrap around season and instead waiting until the Hero World Challenge at the end of the year. Ted feel that Tiger wants to protect his confidence. Ted says that there are about 40 players in the field that could win the Safeway and that compared to a few years ago when there were a core of 5-10 players dominated the Tour.

He needs to build his game and build his confidence.  Holly talks with Jeff about Rory bouncing back and turning his season around on a 15 foot putt for a triple bogey. Jeff thinks that Rory had been lost with his putting even though he was striking the ball so well, his putting was letting him down. It's also good news for Darren Clarke and the young European Ryder Cup team with McIlroy playing so well now. Another guy on the prowl and prepared for the Ryder Cup is Bulldog Patrick Reed who leads the FedEx Cup standings right now. Jeff thinks that maybe the US team might try something new for the Ryder Cup like having some younger guys who are really fired up. Not that the vets aren't but maybe switch it up with some new blood. The PGA Tour is headed to Crooked Stick in Indiana, Holly asks Jeff about the course. He said it's a good track and the players like to play there. Some of the guys who are playing well now played well three years ago.

He reports that Jason just put a new shaft in his driver Wednesday before the third FedEx Cup event.  Holly asked Ben about Jason Day's wife Ellie's car accident at the Deutsche Bank. He said everyone is fine and Ellie only had a case of whiplash.  Adam Scott was playing well earlier in the year but has crept his way into the Top 5. He thinks that Adam has a very good chance this week. Ben said that Adam played well in the Pro-Am on Wednesday and has been playing well the past two weeks in the FedExCup. He thinks that golf fans might be in for a shootout between Adam and Rory McIlroy this week.
