Summary
This ramshackle Wednesday episode comes to you with Andy in a car and Brendan in a construction zone. The two try to make it snappy, hitting on the shhhhedule for the week, the importance of the Dunhill to the future of a bolstered European fall schedule, how the players can impose their will on that schedule, and what it might mean for the Sanderson, our other beloved event of the week. The back half of the podcast is on the news that LIV Golf has a format for its season finale or championship, with a dizzying mix of match and stroke play formats, teams calling out their opponents, and lots of cash. They discuss whether it’s a good, if not confusing and potentially incoherent, format to experiment with in Doral.

| 1:00.0 | That was quite a delay on the Brendan. I hope we do not have that delay going throughout this podcast, because we will be talking over each other, around each other. |
| 1:11.0 | I mean, that's some of the most awkward TV interviews, I'd love to watch the people try to navigate that delay when they're on the satellite, but it could make for a tough podcast interview. We'll see how it goes. |
| 1:23.0 | We'll see. We'll see. Who knows what's going to happen. |
