Summary

This holiday weekend episode begins with some first-week insights from the first ever Coffee Pot. Then Brendan and Andy offer some reactions to the Rocket Mortgage Classic, where another par-fest playoff anointed Cameron Davis the winner. There are some numbers on Davis’ career to this point that indicate he will be around a long time. They also hit on Bryson skipping town without ever talking to the press and Phil tweeting away in a most confusing fashion. They are perturbed by some media carrying water for Bryson’s messaging, and amused by Rickie refusing to indulge some other silly media narratives. The red grandstands, those are also discussed and Andy comes out against the color in general. At the Irish Open, Lucas Herbert’s pregame meals are pondered and Johannes Veerman’s name is discussed. Dick Mast and Dicky Pride playing together in Dick’s Open is highlighted. News hits on Si Woo and Sungjae opting to skip the Open to better prep for the Olympics. The episode closes with a preview of The Match 4, salivating at the possibilities of a mic’d up Bryson on Tuesday night.

0:00.0	Now the shotgun's starting golf is full of mathematics, there's a lot of a lot of setup work that we have to do in order to make a tournament work, so I'm going to demonstrate to you just exactly how we do a shotgun start here.
0:14.0	And here we go.
0:17.0	All right, all right, all right.
0:21.0	Ladies and gentlemen, start your engine!
0:40.0	Greetings and welcome to a Monday edition of the shotgun start. It is July 5th. Andy, how are we doing?
0:47.0	Brandon, I'm doing great. I'm just well rested after another great American holiday, the 4th of July, one of my favorites, maybe my favorite holiday.
0:58.0	I think it might need to be renamed the Cameron Zone Day. The Cameron Beckman winning on the Dick Sporting Goods Open or whatever it's called in Cameron Davis winning the Rocket Mortgage Subprime Classic.
1:11.0	Fantastic day for the Cameron Zone. But yeah, I'm glad you got some rest. It's good to, we're recording late. I played golf this morning.
1:22.0	Side of the overclub challenge.
1:25.0	I did play. Can a very cool. I got some. Yeah, I went for a while.
1:30.0	Did you get over clubbed at all?
1:32.0	No, it's hard for me to hit the distances that I'm supposed to, whether it's long, short or otherwise, so it's probably pretty hard to overclub me.
1:40.0	I went for a run yesterday, which is what I never do. In my knee, of course, just turned a mush. I was hobbling up to 18th hole, never played golf. It was awful. Never run. I don't know why anybody does it.
1:53.0	But it was good, good holiday. The dog does all right. The baby does all right. How do I go with the fireworks?
1:59.0	I was going to say our neighbors were like lighting off M80s last night. The baby's asleep. I'm just like, oh god.
2:08.0	Our fire was just more prevalent, popular than ever. Like, or by just old now, like, I don't remember them being around this.
2:16.0	We have people block over and they're legal in Ohio. I think just doing their own show from their backyard in the middle of the street.
2:23.0	Like, it just seems like they're more, they're everywhere now. It's like that in Maryland too. Just they seem much more.
2:29.0	I feel like, yeah, I feel like there's way more people make the hall, like ill-knowing that they're not legal, so I just go to Indiana and find some, brings them back.
2:39.0	But whatever, it was great. Fireworks are great, you know? They're...
2:45.0	Yeah, I don't mind them. They seem around a lot more than I recall.
2:49.0	All right, let's take care of them.
