I'm already upset when I find my ball in the bunker I'm really upset and when I find my ball in a fried egg

fried egg lie I'm about ready to run off the golf course So, Welcome to the Friday Golf Podcast

Golf Podcast. I'm Garrett Morrison and today we're talking about the state of amateur golf with Lawrence Donaghan.

But first before we get into that we're going to talk about what we're in on and what we're out on this week. Here to do that with me is Joseph Lamagna. Joseph, what are you in on?

Gary, I am in on the unexpected wonderful golf weekend that we had the women's Olympics

which was a super exciting finish with Lydia Coe you don't always know that you're

going to get a compelling finish down the stretch.

She had to play great golf and she did play great golf.

It was super emotional when she won.

I thought that was a delightful ending to a great Olympics, both on the men's and the women's side.

And then we got the little cherry on top yesterday evening with Matt Koochre's debacle

at the Windham Championship, which I don't know how plugged you in you were to that situation

Garrett but in case anyone missed it every golfer got done with a marathon of play at

Sedgefield after rains, storms, they crammed everybody in except for one

Matt Koocher who returned to finish on Monday morning. If you somehow missed it,

if you're completely out of contention, T12, missed the FedEx Cup playoffs,

like just nothing, I mean there is still some fall positioning to play for, but very little to play for,

and decided that he was not going to finish the 18th

whole due to darkness despite the other guys in his group finishing and he came out

made a nice dramatic par this morning as we're recording this.

So you never know what kind of weekends you're going to get in August.
