Summary
This Monday morning episode comes a little late after Andy was busy running a freaking marathon on Sunday. Did the Honda delay its finish just for that? Or was this another instance of the Tour screwing up and mismanaging the schedule? Speaking of management, there’s some great testimony from the front lines about Brendan’s Tour Championship Management concerns from last week. Then they get to LIV’s weekend in Jeddah, from Joaquin Niemann’s win and continued run of form to the Anthony Kim return. They ponder whether other LIV players and supporters are bothered by AK’s presence or just happy to have him and the eyeballs that might accompany him. Also, will the middling rounds and lack of birdies continue and how fast will that get old and lose interest. They hail LIV for its apparent dogged enforcement of slow play. The closing chat is on Paul Azinger sounding off on NBC’s cost cutting moves, his contract negotiations falling apart, and takes on Jay Monahan and the PGA Tour’s current state.
