Summary

Andy and Brendan start this Monday episode riding high from big college football wins over the weekend despite a lack of NFL success on Sunday afternoon. The two begin by unpacking the SGS Leaderboard of the Year at the BMW PGA Championship overseas, with a Billy Horschel-Rory McIlroy playoff to finish off what was another great tournament on the DP World Tour. They discuss the playoff itself, Billy's winning weekend, Rory's play coming down the stretch, and whether "The Great" Manassero has what it takes to get it done on the Euro Tour. The episode then takes a slight turn towards this week's Presidents Cup, as Billy Horschel has now won yet another tournament following the selection of a U.S. team. Next, Andy and Brendan hit on Lydia Ko and the LPGA Queen City Championship, keeping her incredible season going with another win. The premier Champions Tour gambling podcast then tries to justify a poor week of picks for the PURE Insurance Championship, as Brendan put the cooler on Richard Green's hot streak, Andy didn't put in the necessary research for a win, and Producer PJ couldn't find anywhere to bet on Steven Alker in Las Vegas. After some U.S. Mid-Am talk about 2016 SEC Baseball Player of the Year Boomer White and the debut of the "Presidents Cup Fact of the Day," Andy and Brendan celebrate a true underdog story, the Ironheads finally reaching a podium after multiple upsets at the LIV Team Championship in Dallas.
