| 0:00.0 | All right, everyone, on today's episode of Nothing Major, we're going to recap scores around the tour. |
| 0:04.7 | We've got some news. |
| 0:05.8 | We've got some updates. |
| 0:07.3 | We're going to preview next week's tournaments. |
| 0:09.5 | Let's get into it. |
| 0:16.1 | All right, everyone, welcome back. |
| 0:17.5 | I got John Isner, Steve Johnson, Charlie Fox, and the team at Sift. |
| 0:23.5 | Um, somewhat of a busy week around the tour, even though it was like that weird week after |
| 0:27.7 | Australian Open. We are back for a Monday episode. Episode is going to be a little different than |
| 0:33.6 | normal. We're trying to structure our shows a little cleaner, I guess. We've got some |
| 0:38.2 | structured segments for this Monday show. We're going to try it. We're going to get after it. |
| 0:42.9 | Let us know what you guys think. A little update. Our pros versus amateur challenge is going to be |

| 1:16.4 | and I didn't ask you one question about it. |
| 1:18.0 | I meant to. |
| 1:18.7 | But I think y'all won, and I think that bodes well for another edition, |
| 1:23.4 | to see if anyone can eventually beat you guys. |
| 1:25.1 | But I could be wrong. |
| 1:25.8 | Y'all might have lost. But trailer was awesome. The team of Sift cut it up beautifully. They sure did. Also, our MGM slam competition kicks off this week. We're going to give more details on that on Friday. But as you guys know, we've been talking about it all week.
