This week on Quiet Please Golf Podcast, we wrap up the Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches and break down the late stumble from Shane Lowry — what’s the mindset in those moments, and what does it mean for him moving forward? We also look at the composure of Nico Echavarria, who battled through the Bear Trap, and preview storylines heading into the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Off the course, the business of golf gets interesting as McLaren steps into the game with McLaren Golf while Topgolf reportedly loses nearly $1B in valuation. And the global tour drama continues as Jon Rahm calls out the DP World Tour, labeling its penalties “extortion.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In case you slept through it, a predawn lunar eclipse occurred at 5:38AM CST this morning (Tuesday, March 3). The “Worm Moon” (as dubbed by the astronomy community) is a nod to earthworms which tend to emerge from the ground at this time of year during winter thawing. Anyone living south of I-20 knows a thing or two about thawing of late. Air conditioners here in the deep South have also emerged from hibernation after a recent wave of 80+ degree temperatures – even before the end of February. As can happen during these full moon events, the weekend featured a number of rather unusual sports stories. Women’s half-marathon in Atlanta ended with a surprise finish Sunday’s women’s Half Marathon Championship in Atlanta provided a lead vehicle in front of the leaders pack. These are commonly used for races in major cities. With a little more than one mile to go in the race, the top three women runners followed such a vehicle. Unfortunately, it led the top trio off the race course and down the wrong street! The other runners in the field quickly noted the error, made the proper turn, and proceeded on toward the finish line. The confused race leader needed about 60 seconds to notice that she was running the wrong way. She and the other two leaders quickly made a U-turn. Those unfortunate detour required almost two minutes in order to return to the original course route. By then, the confused trio of competitors would complete the race in 9th, 12th and 13th place. The top prize of $20,000 went to another runner. This threesome of wayward runners filed an immediate protest afterwards. It was denied. Officials claimed that the entry form clearly required each runner to know the race layout prior to the start of the competition. What about that lead vehicle? Ironically, the vehicle was provided by the host city’s Atlanta Track Club. Driving in a big city like Atlanta can be challenging, but that was downright embarrassing. USC’s 26-year old (!) top scoring basketball player is no longer with the team The 18-11 USC Trojans men’s basketball team has lost five straight games. After the team’s weekend loss to #12 Nebraska, USC announced that its 19 point-per game starting forward was no longer with the team. Chad Baker-Mazara went down with an apparent injury early in the second half of Southern Cal’s 82-67 home loss to the surprising Cornhuskers on Saturday. Instead of sitting down on the team’s bench, the 6’7” basketball player was found sitting in the stands near the bench between a young lady and another injured teammate. The trio was seen having a delightful chat during the second half of USC’s fifth straight loss. USC has fallen from a likely NCAA March Madness selection to a team unlikely to make the field unless they win the upcoming Big Ten basketball tournament. Second year coach Eric Musselman was unaware of the severity of Chad Baker-Mazara’s injury during the game other than the trainer telling the coach, “He couldn’t go.” Chad Baker-Mazara is from the Dominican Republic. He has played collegiately for Duquesne (Pittsburgh), San Diego State, Northwest Florida State, Auburn (2023-2025) and at USC this season. He has a history of being rather temperamental on and off the court. The 26-year old Baker-Mazara was listed as a graduate student at Southern Cal. However, he was drafted in late January by a professional basketball league based in Puerto Rico. Perhaps he’s had enough of those tough grad school courses at age 26 to get that degree. Famed “Bear Trap” snared PGA golfer Shane Lowry in Sunday’s final round The 15th, 16th, and 17th holes at PGA National’s Champion course are well known to professional golfers. Called “The Bear Trap” to honor course designer Jack “The Golden Bear” Nicklaus, this trio of holes is among the most difficult on the PGA Tour. Add a stiff Florida ocean breeze and carding a par on each of those three holes is considered a big success. The 2019 British Open champion Shane Lowry was atop the leaderboard by two shots coming into the infamous “Bear Trap” holes at the Cognizant Classic in Palm Beach, Florida Sunday. Lowry made a par 3 on the 15th hole to retain his lead. At the par-4 16th hole, Shane Lowry’s tee shot drifted to the right and splashed down into the adjacent lake. A double bogey six tightened the match and allowed his playing competitors back into the game. The final “Bear Trap” obstacle was the treacherous par-3 17th hole. With mounting pressure and gusting winds, Shane Lowry’s tee shot again drifted right and sank to the bottom of a lake. That second consecutive double bogey also sank Lowry’s chances to win the golf tournament. Columbia’s Nico Echavarria held steady and gladly accepted his good fortune to claim a victory and paycheck of more than $1.7 million. Shane Lowry finished in a tie for second place. His payday of $726,000 was one million dollars less than he would have received for first place. Ouch! Thought about the weekend NFL Combine – New York Jets coach needs more sleep The woeful New York Jets will have four of the first 44 selections during Round 1 and 2 in late April’s NFL draft in Pittsburgh. Head coach Aaron Glenn finished 4-13 during his first season with the Jets in 2025. He was in the stands watching the NFL’s annual college player combine over the weekend at Indianapolis. The NFL Combine is where potential pro draft choices showcase their ability to run fast, jump high, and sparkle in a series of drills in front of all 32 teams. The Jets coach apparently was so bored by the proceedings that he was caught briefly napping during the Combine. That’s OK, coach! I tried to watch about 15 minutes of that stuff over the weekend. It definitely works better than No-Doze in putting you to sleep. Zzzz. The NFL Combine can serve as a launching point for an athletically-gifted player – especially those coming from the smaller schools. The combine also reveals weaknesses which might negatively affect your potential NFL draft value, too. Former Arkansas Razorback quarterback Taylen Green is basking in ESPN’s rays of praise Taylen Green was already ESPN’s #7 quarterback heading into the NFL Combine last weekend. After an impressive showing, he may be moving up some teams’ draft board. Taylen Green ran a speedy 4.36 second 40-yard dash. Zoom! He established a quarterback record with a 43 ½ inch vertical leap. Is he playing basketball or football? Green posted a broad jump of 11′ 2”. Why is that important for a quarterback? Welcome to the unique world of the annual NFL Scouting Combine. Taylen Green was quarterback for an Arkansas Razorback football team which finished only 2-10 last year. He passed for 19 touchdowns but also had 11 interceptions. Taylen Green averaged more than 3.13 seconds from the time he received the snap until making a throw while at the University of Arkansas. That was 4th slowest among all 136 FBS major college starting quarterbacks last season. He must to trim that statistic by a full half-second in the NFL, or he will be pummeled regularly by speedy on-coming defenders. Taylen Green may go on to have a terrific NFL career. But, then again…??? Let’s remember a few recent first-round quarterbacks flops after being praised by the ESPN Draft Day hype train! ESPN’s enthusiastic NFL insider Mel “Hyper” Kiper practically drooled when fawning over former first round quarterback Kyler Murray in 2019. Arizona selected Murray with the first overall pick in that year’s NFL draft. Seven years later, the Arizona Cardinals are desperately trying to trade Kyler Murray away. He has led the team to just one playoff game over seven seasons and his contract will pay him $40 million this season. Good luck trying to make any deal, Cardinals! In 2021, the NFL Combine shined the athletic spotlight brightly onto North Dakota State quarterback Trey Lance. He wowed the scouts at the combine with an exceptional ability to run fast, jump high, and leap over tall buildings in a single bound. (Oops, wrong guy!) The San Francisco 49ers talked themselves into selecting Trey Lance with the 3rd overall selection in the first round of the 2021 draft. Sadly, Lance was a flop in his first three seasons in San Francisco. He was traded to the Dallas Cowboys in 2024. Lance was cut loose by the Cowboys after just one year in Big D. The Los Angeles Chargers signed Lance last season to serve as a back-up to starter Justin Herbert. Don’t forget about 2023’s NFL Combine star quarterback Anthony Richardson Much like Arkansas quarterback Taylen Green, Anthony Richardson became the darling of the NFL Combine in 2023. Richardson had finally become the starting QB for the Florida Gators in his third year at the school. He made a number of poor decisions behind center that season but was often bailed-out by his uncanny running skills. The Gators went a pedestrian 6-6, but the team’s quarterback convinced himself that he was ready to play in the NFL. An impressive showing at the 2023 NFL Combine helped to elevate draft hype about Anthony Richardson. He would vault all the way into the 4th overall selection by the Indianapolis Colts three years ago in 2023. After just three NFL seasons, the Colts are now practically begging someone to take Richardson off their hands right now. Anthony Richardson has started only 15 games in three years. He has more career interceptions (13) than touchdowns (11). Richardson suffered concussions in his rookie season from frequently running with the football. Since then, he has dealt with a myriad of injuries. Anthony Richardson has one season left on his rookie NFL contract which pays him “only” $8.5 million in 2026. With a relatively affordable price tag, Richardson is likely to be traded to another team willing to give him a second chance. The NFL Draft Combine nearly sunk 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy was the last college football player selected in the 2022 NFL draft. “Mr. Irrelevant” (the sarcastic nickname assigned to the final person selected in each year’s NFL draft) was a very accurate and successful quarterback for three seasons at Iowa State. However, Brock Purdy’s participation in that spring’s NFL Combine produced a pedestrian 4.84 second 40-yard dash and a lackluster 27” vertical leap. His perceived lack of athleticism caused Brock Purdy to drop further down the draft boards after an underwhelming showing at the NFL Combine. Five years later, “Mr. Irrelevant” is the 49er’s starting quarterback, has played in a Super Bowl and now earns $53 million per year. Moral of the story – Don’t place too much stock in the NFL Combine results when evaluating a future pro football player – especially at the quarterback position! The post Beware! The Worm Moon is upon us! appeared first on SwampSwamiSports.com.
Joel Zuckerman has written 10 books, including ones about PGA of America Professionals and the legendary course designer, Pete Dye.

Golf is a crazy and brutal game, even for the best in the world. Shane Lowry found that out this week at PGA National for the Cognizant Classic. With a three-shot lead on the 16th tee, he flared an iron into the water, which resulted in a double bogey. On the 17th tee shot he did it again, which allowed Nico Echavarria to take home the title. We will do a deep dive into the tournament and what exactly happened to Shane Lowry on this week's episode. It is Arnold Palmer Invitational week and we will be talking one of the best tournaments of the year on the PGA Tour at storied Bay Hill. Scottie Scheffler will once again be a major favorite for this event, which usually plays pretty difficult for tour players. McLaren racing is dipping their toes into the golf world with an announcement Monday that they will start making golf clubs. The luxury car manufacturer and dominant Formula 1 team, will supposedly be launching clubs in late April. Subscribe to the Break80 Podcast on Apple, Spotify and YouTube for weekly golf content.

HAIL THE CONQUERING HERO... except for the four players ahead of him whom he didn't quite conquer. It was a great weekend for Eddie though as he finished 5th in the South African Open and is still in Stellenbosch to give us all of the details, including a hot putter, an unplanned equipment change and a caddie who simply enjoys it all too much. There is also discussion of Shane Lowry's meltdown at the end of Cognizant Classic in Florida and his admirable post-round chat with the media. The three then talk about the layers which are now clearly forming in the professional game and find time to praise the talent in British Women's golf as well as Chris Wood on the MENA Tour. They then wonder if Andy Murray will lay on a private jet to get Eddie back in time for a practice round ahead of the Sunningdale Foursomes. If he doesn't, he's just not taking it seriously.Brought to you by: www.petermillar.co.ukVisit: www.ping.comEmail: tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast Hosted on Acast.

Andy and Brendan! went LIVE on YouTube for a Victory Monday morning recording following a Ballfrogs win over Jupiter Links late Sunday night. Andy is buzzing now that the Frogs have locked up the number one seed in the TGL playoffs despite the best efforts of "Tom Sim" and Max Homa. This turned out to be a loaded weekend of pro golf with national opens across the globe and a Cognizant Classic that absolutely delivered. Shane Lowry found the water twice in "The Bear Trap," blowing a four-shot lead on the final three holes at PGA National. The Salty Boy, Nico Echavarria, came up with a birdie on the 17th to take the lead and eventually secure his third PGA Tour win. Andy and Brendan discuss Lowry's collapse and debate whether he'll find himself in another position to win on the PGA Tour any time soon. Lowry, who hasn't won a solo event in the U.S. since 2015, had a win probability of over 96% standing on the 16th tee before being the first player to hit it in the water on Sunday. Brendan gives him props for speaking to the media immediately after his round and sharing that he wanted to win in front of his daughter for the first time. Following an epic finish - and despite a poor setup at PGA National - Andy runs through the Tour's schedule and puts the Cognizant in a tier above many Signature Events and all three playoff venues this year. PJ shares an update on the yearlong "Brooks Koepka vs. Mules" contest after Koepka's first top ten finish of the season. Is the money deficit already too big for the Mules to make up? Andy and Brendan then run through results from the rest of the week, hitting on the South African Open, New Zealand Open, and the Argentina Open, where winners and top finishers earned a spot at Royal Birkdale later this year. In news, the USGA had a massive Saturday news dump in which they awarded the 2045(!!!) U.S. Open to Inverness Club in Toledo, Ohio. Who knows if this podcast will exist in 19 years, but these two midwesterners are excited for the national championship to return to America's heartland. Things wrap up with some TGL chatter recapping the first overtime match of 2026 and plenty of Jason Kelce exposure on the Worldwide Leader in Sports.

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning open the week by breaking down the Maple Leafs' dismal showing against the Ottawa Senators. The boys break down the team's response afterward and Craig Berube publicly calling them out, leadership concerns around captain Auston Matthews, the physical pushback from Max Domi and Scott Laughton, and the broader direction of the coaching staff and front office.

They close by reacting to Shane Lowry's meltdown at the Cognizant Classic. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
On this week's edition of the podcast, Peter and Rónán try to make sense of Sunday night as Shane Lowry snatched defeat from the jaws of victory in an unthinkable fashion at the Cognizant Classic.Lowry led by three strokes with three to play but back to back double bogeys compounded a disastrous finish as Nico Echavarria stole in for the victory and to pay off the mortgage. There are still plenty of reasons to be positive for Lowry going forward on what was a generally positive week for the Irish with two runner-up finishes on mini tours while Áine Donegan shone in Australia on her professional debut on the Ladies European Tour.
The Out of Bounds Podcast is back the morning after a wild Cognizant Classic at PGA National — and chaos ruled the final three holes. Nico Echavarria grabbed his third career PGA Tour win with back-to-back bogey-free 66s while Shane Lowry suffered one of the most shocking late collapses in recent memory, turning a three-shot lead into a double-double finish.Josh Durso and Nate Sharman break down whether the bigger story is the clutch performance or the meltdown, what Brooks Koepka's T9 and Sunday 65 actually mean, and why this might be the start of a trend. They also hit the global wins from Casey Jarvis and Korn Ferry champion Alistair Docherty — including a fascinating equipment twist involving non-mainstream gear.Plus: the schedule debate around the Cognizant Classic, Arnold Palmer Invitational preview, Puerto Rico Open storylines, and what to watch this week across pro golf.

This Friday episode begins with an apology from Andy after a missed opportunity to discuss Kevin Roy (and his dad, Patrick) as part of our preview of The Cognizant Classic. Brendan moves things along to an early check-in at the South African Open where George Coetzee withdrew after a poor start, ending his run in this week's Game Within a Game. Another Game Within a Game participant is Ernie Els, who Andy claimed "looked a little husky" on the range. This Ernie discussion ushers in a brand-new Champions Tour Minute after Andy and PJ heard from a well-placed source that the "next big thing" on the senior circuit is not Tiger Woods or Zach Johnson, but another 50-year-old waiting to make his debut. The bulk of this episode focuses on some comments from pre-tournament press conferences at The Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches. Shane Lowry believes that the overseed course setup by the Tour's Championship Management has dramatically altered this event from a tough test to now something that looks green on television. Billy Horschel tried to shift the blame off the Tour and to the resort at PGA National, but Andy and Brendan aren't giving them the benefit of the doubt. This issue with the setups is even further exemplified at this week's KFT event at the Jockey Club, with Andy saying that the Tour has "completely ruined so many places." Ryan Gerard, the betting favorite at this event, also had some things to say before he teed off. Gerard has been a focus of the Tour's marketing efforts this week and Brendan thinks this can be a model for future "PGA-B" events potentially making stars. Gerard shared a story about playing with Scottie Scheffler and how Scottie manages to bridge the gap between clubs by playing a high-launching shot. Gerard has been chasing that shot and believes he has it, hoping that it'll lead to success at the majors this year. Brendan then shares a Flashback Friday segment on the 1991 Honda Classic, won by Steve Pate. This story has it all, including a legendary overclub challenge by Paul Azinger and a scorekeeper finding a lost ball.

On this week's edition of the podcast, Peter and Ronan start off down under and reflect on what will surely be the golf story of the year as Anthony Kim rolled back the years and won for the first time in 16 years at LIV Adelaide capping off a sensational comeback journey.There was also huge drama at Pebble Beach as Collin Morikawa... eventually... won the AT&T Pro-Am for his first win in over two years while there were signs of encouragement for Shane Lowry and Rory McIlroy heading into the Genesis and beyond as Max Kennedy gave his DP World Tour hopes a shot in the arm during an overall fruitful period for the Irish in South Africa over the last month.
On this week's edition of the podcast Peter and Ronan discuss the fallout from the respective victories of Patrick Reed and Scottie Scheffler. As Scheffler hits the record books with Tiger and Jack after his 20th win, is Reed an example to follow for what a potential world tour could look like?It was take two at TGL for Peter in the SOFI centre and after an underwhelming first season he was intrigued to see has the product improved. There was also underwhelming weeks on tour for Rory McIlroy, Shane Lowry and Seamus Power while Tom McKibbin and Alex Maguire have started the year brightly.
The PGA Tour kicked off the 2026 season in Hawaii at the Sony Open. Chris Gotterup took home the title and moved to number 17 in the OWGR. We discuss the event and our thoughts on the golf course and Chris Gotterup. Nacho Elvira won on the DP World Tour this week after a collapse by Shane Lowry on the final hole. Rory McIlroy could not capitalize on a great opening round, and finished two shots back of Elvira. All this professional golf and the Good Good guys go to California.

Despite a heartbreaking Bears loss to end their season in the Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs, Andy joins Brendan for what is still a Victory Monday episode of The Shotgun Start. Andy can't believe that Vijay Singh made the cut at the Sony Open and immediately takes a victory lap about hitting the Over-Under of 0.5 Vijay made cuts for the season. There is a brief Football Minute at the start of this episode commemorating a historic Bears season, but the conversation soon shifts to the PGA Tour's Opening Drive, which is now closed after just one event. Chris Gotterup won the Sony Open for his third win in as many seasons and perhaps further exemplifying why he was a Ryder Cup snub at Bethpage. Andy and Brendan discuss Gotterup's advantage off-the-tee that set him up for success at Waialae Country Club and his continued ascendence into the upper tier of pro golfers. The two then unpack other storylines from the first PGA Tour event of the year, such as a top 25 from Jordan Spieth, a made cut from Vijay, a Sunday stumble by 54-hole leader Davis Riley, and a Collin Morikawa missed cut. Andy also brings up Big Shot Bob MacIntyre's comments about his attitude costing him a win at the Sony and wonders if Bob gets a bit too much leeway from fans based on his on-course actions. Nacho Elvira took home the win in Dubai on the DP World Tour after a Shane Lowry collapse on the 72nd hole. Andy and Brendan are thrilled about a win for Nacho and give some props to Lowry for speaking to the media after a tough finish. After touching on the Latin America Am, Brendan shares some of Michael Block's latest comments... about Tiger Woods. Andy cannot believe that Blockie has a platform to throw out a gauntlet to Tiger Woods on the Champions Tour, and Brendan also can't believe Greg Norman is still being platformed to discuss his "loyalty to the PGA Tour." Speaking of loyalty to the PGA Tour, Patrick Reed has said that he'd be open to a return if he was offered the same deal as Brooks Koepka. This episode wraps up with another Football Minute as we put a bow on the Bears and look ahead to a loaded week of pro golf with the 2026 season now underway.

Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler, Keith Mitchell, Keegan Bradley and Shane Lowry joined the final 5 Clubs on Golf Channel program for 2025. All of the guests discussed the Golf Channel Games. McIlroy recapped his year including the Masters and what his priorities are ahead. Bradley touched on his feelings for the Ryder Cup and the aftermath and the hole it has left in his soul. Lowry touched on his Ryder Cup memories including the pressure he felt on the 18th hole as the lead was slipping away. Mitchell talked about his appreciation for the world of broadcast as he prepared for his role in the Golf Channel Games and talked about the world's top two players. And Scheffler touched on his improved putting, the back 9 at the PGA and how the condensed PGA TOUR schedule will have to be navigated. We also announced a new event in collaboration with Landmand Golf Club called the Heartbeat and showcased our dogs of the week.
Despite the almost four-hour runtime of Part 5, the show must go on as the self-imposed Christmas deadline inches closer and closer. Andy and Brendan are once again joined by PJ and KVV to chat through a set of four events following Rory's win at the Masters. Before the Year in Review gets back underway, the four recap this week's biggest news: Alejandro Tosti's performance at PGA Tour Q-School. Everyone is giddy to have Tosti back for another season on the big tour and they commend him for fighting through Q-School for a second time. Andy, Brendan, and Kevin also discuss some late-breaking golf news regarding the National Links Trust and the Trump administration's plan to renovate the three public golf courses in Washington D.C. The Year in Review resumes with a look back at the RBC Heritage and the immediate wake of one of the greatest wins in golf history. PJ runs through a week's worth of Rory reactions before unveiling the important stuff, such as Grant Horvat's Barracuda exemption (unused) and Wesley Bryan's PGA Tour suspension (still seemingly ongoing). Justin Thomas returned to the winner's circle in Hilton Head, getting over the finish line for the first time since the 2022 PGA Championship. Andy is next up with the Zurich Classic, where Rory McIlroy made his return to golf in a team event alongside Shane Lowry. Andy rediscovers the backboarding that occurred at a disastrous Chevron Championship and the power outage that led to the golf world being exposed to a Champions Tour Sunday on national TV. He also shares that one of the great technological achievements of our time happened this week! Brendan has the honor of recapping PGA Tour history, as Scottie Scheffler burned down TPC Craig T. Nelson Ranch and tied the all-time scoring record in a runaway win. All that may be great, but Brendan is most excited about the children in attendance chanting while a bulldozer wrecked the practice green ahead of Lanny's renovation. KVV comes in to close things out again, handling the first-ever Truist Championship. His findings lead the group down a rabbit-hole of past HSBC photo shoots, complete with a flying Henrik Stenson and Yao Ming. The 2025 Year in Review returns on Wednesday with the long-awaited Rise of Rea.
The Pro Shop's Dan Rapaport joins us to preview "The Skins Game" -- for which he'll be a commentator on along with Andrew Catalon and Colt Knost -- between Tommy Fleetwood, Shane Lowry, Keegan Bradley and Xander Schauffele. (Friday at 9am ET LIVE on Amazon Prime Video.) We also touch on recent renovations to Harbour Town Golf Links, what to expect from Panther National, Keegan's mindset as he faces two of his Ryder Cup foes, a format tweak to the Skins Game and a lot more.
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.
