What's up, guys, Rick here with your preview for this week's Open Championship.

I'm going to take you through the analytics of the golf course, Royal Trune, the field,

and everything else in between to see if we can make some logical, reasonable decisions

and get you all prepared for the final major championship of the year.

Now, I have two big announcements out of the gate.

Number one, the Wednesday live chat is going to be a little bit earlier for this week. It will be at 11 a.m. Eastern

time on Wednesday. I have a television commitment for CBS sports that I can't move because it's

live television. So I am moving the live chat up a little bit.

So if you want to go over, that room is available now, set your notifications,

drop your questions, your concerns, your comments, all that fun stuff.

You can go take care of that right now.

Also, you might want to take care of entering the listeners league right now because Splash,

who has been great at guaranteeing the prize pool for all of our listener leagues every single week and growing them and making them bigger, has added and

guaranteed $25,000 to the purse for this week. On top of that, if you are able to put together the optimal lineup, so the way that this

works is it's a tiers contest, you pick one golfer from each of six tiers.

If you pick the correct golfer from each of six, the optimal way, they give you $100,000

extra.

They call it the splash pot.

It's not going to be easy.

You're going to have to be perfect.

But if you do, not only are you going to win the contest, you're also going to get an extra

$100,000.
