Will Doctor gives you the sharpest card for the Valero Texas Open live from San Antonio at TPC San Antonio (Oaks). -Discussing top 8 on odds board -1 matchup -1 t10, 1 t20 -3 outrights (30/1, 55/1, 110/1) -Sleeper, 2 FRP, 2 lineups -Scoring, best bet For the latest as far as the world of golf, follow Doc on X @drmedia59 In the VALSPAR25 Golf Preview Podcast, Will Doctor recaps the Houston Open and offers a detailed betting breakdown for the upcoming Valero Texas Open. He opens by acknowledging a disappointing week in Houston, losing 5.5 units, bringing his season total to -53.8 units. Minwoo Lee claimed his first PGA Tour title, winning by one over Scottie Scheffler and Gary Woodland. Though Minwoo only hit 22 of 52 fairways, his dominance on and around the greens—15th in approach and around-the-green, and 2nd in putting—secured the win. Alejandro Tosti, known for his distance (4th at 317 yards), finished T-5 after a solid Sunday despite a rough start. Gary Woodland's emotional runner-up, his best since brain surgery, was fueled by elite putting and iron play. Scottie Scheffler posted his best putting week of 2025 and nearly chased down Minwoo with a final round 63, birdieing holes 13 through 16. Will's picks last week largely faltered. Davis Thompson (T-27) had a strong middle stretch but imploded on the greens Sunday with several missed short putts. Mac Meissner (T-39) drove poorly, finishing 67th in strokes gained off the tee, but impressed with iron play. Tony Finau missed a top-20 finish by two shots due to negative iron stats and a disastrous four-putt on Saturday's 15th hole. Minwoo Lee's top-20 bet hit, but Mackenzie Hughes lost top Canadian to Taylor Pendrith, who posted three rounds of 65. Looking ahead to the Valero Texas Open, Will previews a course demanding driving accuracy and elite short game on firm Bermuda greens. He dismisses favorites Ludwig Aberg (12-1), Tommy Fleetwood (14-1), Patrick Cantlay (20-1), Hideki Matsuyama (20-1), Keegan Bradley (25-1), and Jordan Spieth (25-1) due to recent struggles, poor pricing, or course history. Corey Conners, despite being 18-1, gets a top-10 pick (+175) based on his consistent form and two past wins at TPC San Antonio. Akshay Bhatia, the defending champion, earns a top-20 nod at even money given his recent top finishes. Will's outrights include Denny McCarthy (30-1), praised for elite putting and consistent irons; Bud Cauley (55-1), coming off two top-10s with sharp ball striking; and Isaiah Salinda (110-1), a powerful, accurate rookie who dazzled late in Houston. Woodland, fresh off his emotional T-2, is his sleeper pick for a top-10 finish at 4-1. First-round picks are Cauley (+450) and Salinda (+650) to top-10, both teeing off early. His DraftKings lineup features Bhatia, McCarthy, Cauley, Woodland, Salinda, and Meissner, while the PGA Tour Fantasy roster has Bhatia, McCarthy, Cauley, Salinda (captain), Woodland, and Lee Hodges. With potential wind and rain forecasted, Will predicts a winning score of 16-under. His best bet: Salinda to finish top-20 at 3-1.

Eindelijk!!! De competitie is begonnen. Martijn won met zijn team met 14-4. Paul, Peter en Rogier waren gastheer en zagen wat verrassende uitslagen. Er waren nog wel wat zomertijd incidentjes.We hebben in het clubhuis de hele ronde van Luiten bekeken in India. Hij speelde solid en werd 3 achter Chacarra en Nakajima. Wat een baan!In Houston werd Scheffler net als vorig jaar 2e, dit keer niet achter Jaeger, maar achter 'chef' Min Woo Lee. Een baan waar je vanaf de tee niet kan missen, maar het schot naar de green is vaak wel lastig.De Pro Golf tour in Hongarije had een volledig Nederlands podium met Lars van der Vight, Mike Toorop en Dario Antonisse.In de korte ronde: Tony Finau, de laatste plekjes in de Masters worden verdeeld, Keith Mitchell Dave Pelz, Steve Wiliams, voorspellingen jaarspel, Gary Player en Jack Nicklaus.Raad de Speler tot slot.0:00 - 22:45 Eigen golf22:45 - 46:46 Professioneel golf46:46 - 1:04:02 Korte Ronde1:04:02 - 1:04:34 Raad de Speler
TGL Tuesdays come to a close, as this episode was a YouTube live recording following Billy Boy's crowning moment in the SoFi Dome! Andy and Brendan begin by discussing the Atlanta Drive's SoFi Cup win, rounding out the TGL season. They share some overall takeaways from the inaugural screen golf season, Andy breaks out his data-driven power rankings one last time, and PJ is reeling after yet another New York sports loss in a playoff environment. There are pleas for Billy Horschel to take his (rightful) place on the Ryder Cup team this fall, with his MVP-worthy screen golf performance showing he's ready for the main stage. In real golf (37:50, for all of you timestamp fans), Andy deems this week's Hero Indian Open "the Event of the Year" with the DP World Tour heading back to DLF. A listener writes in with some in-person insight from our favorite course, complete with an SGS legend sighting in the clubhouse! Picks are made for the Houston Open, which Tony Finau believes is the best Masters prep on Tour. The LPGA returns with the Ford Championship in Arizona and Brendan passes on some insight from the latest episode of The Mixed Bag. The Champions Tour continues its California Swing, but you'll have to chase down how to watch it across multiple platforms. Finally, the NFLPA Classic at Mayakoba is filling some airtime on Golf Channel this week, so PJ gives an in-depth breakdown of the field and some quotes from on-course reporter Jameis Winston. To wrap things up, Andy, Brendan, and PJ discuss how one would fly to India to make it out to DLF for the Indian Open this weekend.

Joe Highsmith went from barely making the cut to his first PGA Tour win with an exemplary weekend at the Cognizant Classic to kick of the the "Florida Swing" at PGA National. Jake Knapp fired a sizzling 59 on Thursday to jump out to a lead but was not able to keep the good playing going through 72 holes as he and the rest of the field were passed by Highsmith on the weekend to grab the title. Luke Clanton made another PGA Tour cut and got his tour card through the PGA Tour University accelerated program. It has been a spectacular and unique rise for Clanton who has done it mostly by great play in PGA Tour tournaments. We even dare to raise the question about the number one amatuer in the world... Would Keegan Bradley think about making him a captains pick for the Ryder Cup this fall? With Angel Cabrera coming back to the Masters and a former Australian biker gang member qualifying for the Open Championship at Royal Portrush, we dig into some of the felonies committed during PGA Tour events. Jeff will also discuss a current legal situation between Tony Finau and some agents he had early in his career. Tim dives into this week in YouTube golf which saw John Daly and his son take on Grant Horvat and Phil Mickelson as the big YouTube golf of the week.

Andy and Brendan are buzzing on this Monday episode, recorded immediately after the playoff finish at VidantaWorld. Andy is claiming a Victory Monday for Illinois after Brian Campbell took down Aldrich Potgieter at the Mexico Open. The two unpack Sunday's stretch run that led to the two-man playoff. They discuss Potgieter's first pop-up on a PGA Tour stage, how he leveraged his driving distance into a second place check, and some of the decisions he and his caddie made that may have cost him the win. Andy and Brendan also react to Campbell's final drive of the event, destined to go out of bounds before hitting a tree and bouncing back into play. They share some disappointment in the performances of Aaron Rai and Stephan Jaeger as both failed to convert on chances that could have resulted in a win. Elsewhere, Brendan shares some listener reporting from the Magical Kenya Open, won by Jacques Kruyswijk. On the LPGA Tour, Angel Yin won the Honda LPGA Thailand and A Lim Kim's use of aimpoint on a tap-in went viral late Saturday night. A roundup of weekend news closes this episode, with Andy and Brendan touching on Tony Finau's one-match deal with LAGC, Eamon Lynch's reporting on the PIF-PGA Tour White House meeting, and Jordan Spieth playing next week's Cognizant.

Back from the Hero World Challenge interlude, Andy and Brendan resume the Year in Review and get through the year's first major, Scottie Scheffler's second Masters win. Andy begins the show by remembering Peppy Peter Malnati's victory at the Valspar, his first PGA Tour win in nine years. Peppy Peter is moved to tears in his post-round interview, and finally plays in his first Masters tournament a few weeks later. Brendan then moves through the Texas Children's Houston Open, where Stephan Jaeger secured his permanent call-up from AAAA player, outlasting Scottie Scheffler, Tony Finau, Tosti Boy, and more. Tosti becomes a national name this week, and Andy and Brendan remember the finest Tosti Tales from earlier this year. PJ jumps in to recap Akshay's shoulder-popping win at Valero, Anthony Kim's "vaguely remembering" Tiger's 2019 Masters win, and a thrilling ANWA finish. From there, it's a group effort on the Masters, covering Monday's total eclipse, Zach Johnson (not) cursing at patrons, and Scottie pulling away from the pack on Sunday after weekend charges from Ludvig Åberg, Collin Morikawa, and Max Homa.
With the Year in Review on pause until next week, Andy and Brendan use this Friday episode to catch up on the remaining golf news from this week. Andy spends the entire show dealing with a potential tsunami warning in California, leading to multiple cut-ins with the latest updates from the National Weather Service. In terms of late-breaking golf news, Brendan shares that Scottie Scheffler is using a claw grip to putt at the Hero and the two wonder if this will be a long-term solution for him or if he's just trying it out in a "hit and giggle" event. NYGC's Cameron Young is off to a hot start in Albany, setting him up for his first "win" on the PGA Tour. It was revealed that Tony Finau is NOT going to LIV (as of now), but withdrew from the Hero World Challenge due to knee surgery. Speaking of LIV, it's a loaded leaderboard for the weekend at the Saudi International series, currently being led by Logan McAllister. Dustin Johnson, the latest Golf Saudi ambassador, missed the cut, but had some quotes about "growing the game" in the Golf Saudi press release. Patrick Reed also had some newsworthy comments, suggesting that players who can qualify should be able to play on any tour they want, without suspension or fines. The Ryder Cup pay-for-play debate is somehow still rearing its head, with Scottie Scheffler and Justin Thomas being the latest Americans to be peppered with questions about it during pressers at the Hero. Kevin Kisner will be the new lead analyst for NBC in 2025 and Brendan wonders how this will impact his TGL status as a member of Jupiter Links Golf Club. Brendan and Andy also break down a potential LIV-WNBA legal battle after the WNBA's latest team logo may rip off a LIV franchise. This episode closes with some SGS Golf Advice about a dice-roll cheater and a legendary war of words at a golf simulator in Canada.

Things are back to normal on this Wednesday episode as Andy and Brendan pause the Year in Review to discuss the Hero World Challenge and plenty of news from across the world of golf. Brendan recaps an amazing Browns loss on Monday Night Football to start things off and Andy wonders what the career of Justin Thomas would look like if he took a Jameis Winston approach to improvement (praying to be delivered from pick sixes). From there, the two recap Tiger's annual press conference at the Hero, where he claimed that his competitive fire is still burning but he's unable to compete physically right now. Andy and Brendan discuss key takeaways from the media session and wonder if Tiger's waning energy is being wasted on the PGA Tour-PIF negotiations. Meanwhile, the LIV Hot Stove is scorching as Thomas Pieters was dealt from the RangeGoats to the 4 Aces in exchange for... nothing and Tony Finau is rumored to be the latest to make the jump after withdrawing from the Hero on Monday. An all-new "Commissioners Minute" segment leads to debates about Jay Monahan's place among sports commissioners after it was revealed that his 2023 salary totaled $23 million. "Commissioners Minute" continues with the news of Mollie Marcoux Samaan's resignation as the LPGA's leader also breaking on Monday. Andy and Brendan then move to the metaverse, where Tiger claims that he will be ready to play when Jupiter Links GC hits the SoFi Center for the first TGL season in January. Unbeknownst to this podcast, the NYGC squad had a media day in New York, where a non-invited PJ missed out on a chance to have Mets/NYGC owner compare Matt Fitzpatrick to Sean Manaea. The premier golf gambling podcast then makes some picks for the Hero World Challenge before running through notables at the DP World Tour's Nedbank Golf Challenge in South Africa. To close things out, PJ recaps the first round of Champions Tour Q-School's final stage, where some SGS favorites are looking to secure status for next year.

There are two primary sources of unhappiness: living focused on the wrong things, and living in a way not in harmony with what matters most to you. Today, McKay opens our eyes to see why we need to discover what matters most to us and how to live in harmony with our values to live a happy and purposeful life. In this episode, McKay tells the story of the integrity possessed by Tony Finau, a man who valued honesty and decided to live with his values. He goes on to discuss the reasons why many are unhappy, the importance of deciding what matters most to you, and ways to identify your governing values. As McKay makes clear here today, when you become a light, and not a judge, and write down your governing values, you become set on your way to a happier and better life. The Finer Details of This Episode: - Tony Finau's integrity- The sources of unhappiness in life- Why you have to decide what matters most- How to live in harmony with what matters most- Beethoven's Fifth Symphony- the pursuit of what matters- How do you determine what matters most to you?- Ways to identify your governing values- Be a light, not a judge- Living in harmony with your chosen values- The power of planning your day Quotes: “To be happy and to pursue a purposeful life we have to decide what matters most and then seek to live in harmony with what matters.” “A deal is a deal. A handshake is a handshake. Integrity is integrity.” “It seems like selfishness, operating without common respect, and other such things, are the trades growing in our society.” “Be yourself, but be that perfectly.” “Our daily actions are in line with what matters most to us.” “Our purpose in life is to become the best we can be, to become a person of noble actions and virtues.” “We only have one life on this earth. I mean, I haven't heard of anyone going around for a second try, and if we aren't doing what matters most, then what in fact are we doing?” “You must take responsibility for your belief window and remove the erroneous beliefs on that window.” Show Links: Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

Below is a breakdown of the key moments: Friday's Recap & Player Analysis: [Will Docter] (0:39 - 13:30) Will discusses the complete turnaround from Thursday's domination by Team USA to Friday's losses in the foursome sessions. Below are detailed match analyses: Match 6: Hideki Matsuyama and Sungjae Im vs. Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele Matsuyama and Im stunned Cantlay and Schauffele with seven consecutive birdies, finishing 7 and 6. The Japanese-Korean duo, ranked low in strokes gained on Day 1, were in top five by the end of Friday. Key Quote: "Seven straight birdies is flat-out impressive stuff in any format" (0:47). Analysis: Matsuyama and Im displayed exceptional form, outperforming Cantlay and Schauffele in every aspect, particularly in putting. Match 7: Adam Scott and Taylor Pendrith vs. Sahith Theegala and Collin Morikawa Pendrith continued his solid performance, paired with Scott who had a fantastic day on the greens. Theegala struggled, having the second-worst day on the course. Analysis: Theegala's weak putting, combined with Morikawa's subpar form, left them outmatched despite Morikawa's solid ball striking. Match 8: Christiaan Bezuidenhout and Jason Day vs. Max Homa and Brian Harman Homa had a strong day with his driving, but Harman's poor showing left the pair vulnerable. Team USA Analysis: Homa and Harman couldn't recover, losing 1-up in a closely contested match. Day and Bezuidenhout capitalized on their putting despite not playing their best. Match 9: Corey Conners and Mackenzie Hughes vs. Wyndham Clark and Tony Finau The Canadians made seven birdies, ending the match on 13, while Clark and Finau could not make their putts. Key Stat: Both Finau and Clark had negative strokes gained with their irons. Analysis: The home crowd support for Conners and Hughes gave them a needed boost as Team USA faltered. Match 10: Si Woo Kim and Byeong Hun An vs. Scottie Scheffler and Russell Henley Si Woo Kim excelled with birdies on 12, 13, and 15, and a clutch par putt to close the match. Scheffler admitted that Henley rolled the ball well but couldn't capitalize on his chances. Analysis: Si Woo's ability to thrive in high-pressure situations made the difference, showcasing his incredible match-play abilities. Saturday Picks & Predictions: [Will Docter] (13:30 - 17:00) Match 11: Scottie Scheffler and Collin Morikawa vs. Adam Scott and Taylor Pendrith Favorite: Scheffler and Morikawa (-205). Prediction: Despite Morikawa's shaky putting, Will leans toward Team USA based on Scheffler's solid ball striking and world number one ranking. Match 12: Tony Finau and Xander Schauffele vs. Corey Conners and Mackenzie Hughes Underdog: Conners and Hughes (+141). Prediction: Will favors the Canadians, citing their recent form and Finau's ongoing struggles with the greens. Match 13: Si Woo Kim and Tom Kim vs. Keegan Bradley and Wyndham Clark Favorite: Si Woo and Tom Kim (-117). Prediction: Will is confident in the chemistry between the Kims, emphasizing Si Woo's clutch performance on Friday. Match 14: Patrick Cantlay and Sam Burns vs. Hideki Matsuyama and Sungjae Im Even Money: Will predicts the Internationals will continue their momentum, doubting Cantlay and Burns' ability to perform under pressure.

Will Doctor delivers the sharpest prop card for the 15th Presidents Cup at Royal Montreal Golf Club (Blue Course). Stay tuned for Doc's Presidents Cup daily picks throughout the tournament. You can find him on X @drmedia59 In this episode of the Golf Preview Podcast, Will Docter provides an in-depth preview of the 2024 Presidents' Cup, offering analysis on team compositions, key players, and betting tips for the tournament at Royal Montreal. Overview (0:16 - 22:05) The Presidents' Cup is a biennial event where the U.S. competes against an international team (excluding Europe). The tournament features 30 matches over four days: five on Thursday and Friday, eight on Saturday, and twelve singles matches on Sunday. Historically, the U.S. has dominated the competition, winning every Cup since 2003. Docter doesn't expect that to change this year due to the talent disparity between the teams. U.S. Team: The U.S. team is missing Bryson DeChambeau but remains strong with elite players like Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele, both boasting impressive Presidents' Cup records. Schauffele, who has a 6-3-0 record in the Presidents' Cup, is one of Docter's top picks for the tournament, especially given the course's emphasis on accuracy. Tony Finau is another player Docter highlights, noting his solid ball-striking and improved putting. International Team: The international squad, led by Mike Weir, faces a significant challenge without LIV players like Cam Smith and Joaquin Niemann. Key returners include Sungjae Im, Si Woo Kim, and Hideki Matsuyama, but Docter questions whether they can carry the team. He also emphasizes the importance of Canada's Corey Conners and Taylor Pendrith performing well after their disappointing 0-4-0 records in 2022. LIV Golf Controversy: Docter criticizes the LIV Golf format, calling it a "joke" and blaming it for excluding top international talent from this year's event. LIV players were not allowed to compete in the Presidents' Cup, despite being eligible for other events like the Ryder Cup. Betting Insights: Docter provides several betting recommendations, starting with Team USA to win at -250. He offers three prop bets: Xander Schauffele to be the Top USA Point Scorer at +450, citing his flexibility in pairings and strong Presidents' Cup record. Tony Finau as the Top USA Captain's Pick at +650, emphasizing his ball-striking and respectable team event history. Sahith Theegala to finish as the Top USA Rookie at +250, praising his recent form and energy, which will be crucial in a high-stakes team event. On the international side, Docter passes on many categories but backs Si Woo Kim as the Top International Captain's Pick at +350. He notes Si Woo's strong ball-striking, recent form, and history of excelling in team formats. Key Quotes and Stats: "The United States has won every Presidents' Cup since 2003, and I don't think that changes this week." Docter establishes that the U.S. remains the heavy favorite, particularly with the absence of key international players. "Xander Schauffele has a 6-3-0 record in two Presidents' Cups." Schauffele's experience and versatility make him a strong bet for top U.S. scorer, especially given the challenging setup of Royal Montreal. "Si Woo Kim's ball-striking has been phenomenal over his last two events." Docter's confidence in Si Woo stems from his recent finishes and history of delivering in big moments, making him a standout pick for top international captain's choice.

Follow Doc on X @drmedia59 for more on the world of golf Introduction and Overview In the podcast's introduction, Will Doctor sets the stage by bringing his sharpest predictions for the PGA Tour event, the Presidents Cup (0:15–0:42). His energy and focus immediately engage listeners, promising a detailed breakdown of Thursday's Fourball matches. The matchups feature top golfers from both the USA and international teams, with Doctor providing his take on the betting odds and insights. Match 1: Xander Schauffele & Tony Finau vs. Jason Day & Byung-hun Ahn (0:42–14:57) Doctor starts with the first match, where Schauffele and Finau are favorites at -180 on DraftKings. He questions U.S. captain Jim Furyk's decision to split Schauffele and Patrick Cantlay, who have a strong history together, but he supports the flexibility of pairing Schauffele with Finau. Despite Finau's driving accuracy issues earlier in the season, Doctor believes Finau has improved and will excel on the greens at Royal Montreal. For the opposition, Jason Day's recent struggles—finishing 33rd at the BMW Championship and failing to qualify for the Tour Championship—are highlighted. Doctor is not confident in Day's current form, pointing out his ongoing issues with driving accuracy. Ben Onn, too, has limited success in the Presidents Cup, which makes Doctor strongly favor Schauffele and Finau. Statistical Insight: Day has underperformed in the Presidents Cup, and his driving accuracy has been problematic in 7 of his last 11 events. Schauffele and Finau, on the other hand, are in good form with Finau showing late-season improvement. Prediction: Schauffele & Finau to win. Match 2: Collin Morikawa & Sahith Theegala vs. Adam Scott & Min Woo Lee (14:57–24:30) Morikawa and Theegala are slight favorites at -135. Doctor praises Theegala's performance in the 2024 FedEx Cup and Morikawa's solo second place at the Tour Championship. Morikawa's consistency, with 8 top-ten finishes in 2024, makes him one of the top players in the world. Doctor, however, acknowledges Adam Scott's determination to improve his Presidents Cup record, which currently stands at a disappointing 18-25-6. Statistical Insight: Despite Scott's veteran status, his poor Presidents Cup record weighs heavily, while Morikawa's consistent high-level play positions him as a key player. Theegala's form in recent events further strengthens their chances. Prediction: Morikawa & Theegala to win. Match 3: Scottie Scheffler & Russell Henley vs. Sungjae Im & Tom Kim (24:30–32:00) Scheffler and Henley are -142 favorites. Doctor supports Furyk's decision to pair Henley with Scheffler, noting Henley's stellar driving accuracy (5th on the PGA Tour) and top performances in major events. On the other hand, Tom Kim's form is questioned, as his recent performances have been underwhelming, finishing 52nd in the FedEx Cup standings. Statistical Insight: Scheffler, ranked number one in the world, paired with Henley's accuracy, makes them formidable. Conversely, Tom Kim's struggles this season raise doubts about his ability to perform at Royal Montreal. Prediction: Scheffler & Henley to win. Match 4: Wyndham Clark & Keegan Bradley vs. Taylor Pendrith & Christiaan Bezuidenhout (32:00–38:30) Clark and Bradley are favored at -112. Doctor criticizes Mike Weir's decision to pair Pendrith with Bezuidenhout, citing Bezuidenhout's poor form in recent tournaments. He points to Bezuidenhout's struggles with his driver and short game, which make the pairing less competitive against the sharp form of Clark and Bradley. Statistical Insight: Bezuidenhout's loss of shots in four consecutive starts is a red flag. Clark and Bradley's more consistent recent performances make them the stronger pairing. Prediction: Clark & Bradley to win. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
