Summary

Andy and Brendan went live on YouTube for this Monday recording celebrating a win by the Sepptic Tank! The two recap a slow, slow week at The American Express, with the final group taking 339 minutes to finish a Sunday round. Sepp Straka held on despite two late hiccups to secure his third PGA Tour win which has Brendan wondering about how he'll finish "The Tank Slam" with a fourth victory. There's a lot of chatter about pace-of-play and the setup at PGA West to wrap up the PGA Tour's week in the desert. Andy and Brendan then discuss Tyrrell Hatton's win at the Dubai Desert Classic, landing him back in the top ten of the OWGR despite playing most of his events on LIV. The two debate whether Hatton can be viewed as a Ryder Cup lock this far ahead of Bethpage and also discuss his latest on-course outburst. This episode also marks the return of "Champions Tour Minute," as PJ chimes in with a ton of Zinger quotes from his debut in the booth next to Bob Papa. To wrap things up, Andy and Brendan discuss some news and notes before a short Sports Minute about the CFP National Championship on Monday night and a big Washington Commanders win.
