Summary
Andy and Brendan are back home after another incredible week in Augusta that went one extra day for BP. That’s the cause for this beefy Wednesday episode, as Andy peppers him with some questions about his Monday round at Augusta National. They discuss his best shots, worst shots, unexpected encounters, and favorite memories from an all-time experience. Then they transition to the week that’s coming by diving right into a fun game of In/Out/Alternate for the opposite field Puntacana Championship. At the Heritage, they discuss more gnome fever and make some one-and-done picks. The women’s major championship, the Chevron, is also covered in the context of Nelly Korda’s historic run. News hits on the Rory-to-LIV rumor that lasted about a day this week, the Masters ratings plummeting and how we should react to it, and the PGA going back to Kiawah’s Ocean Course.
