Welcome to the Clubhouse with Shane Bacon. I am your host.

Shane Bacon, it's President's Cup week. President's Cup starts tonight, Wednesday night.

Prime time, it'll be exciting. I mean, anytime you get good golf with big names, kind of in those windows, I think people watch, and they

pay attention to it. I have Alan Shipnuck from Golf Magazine and Golf.com on to discuss kind of

everything that goes into the President's Cup, the Patrick Reed stuff, and we dove at length a little

bit into some stuff we like to see changed about the President's Cup. And I said it during the interview, I'm going to say it now.

I give these ideas, these tips, these thoughts,

because the President's Cup is an event that I want to be successful.

I want any big golf event to do well because it's good for the sport.

It's good for fans.

It brings eyeballs in. All of that is good for the sport. It's good for fans. It brings eyeballs in.

All of that is good for people like myself who focuses on golf 95% of the year.

So don't take it as that I'm some guy standing outside of house screaming at a closed door.

This is my hope that the points are taken. At least they bring up a discussion, and that's

what we do. That's what Alan and I did. This week's Clubhouse podcast, as all the Clubhouse

podcasts are, are brought to you by my good friends at Titleist, and you probably know this

from the tree in your house, or the menor menorah or the lights outside. It's the holidays

and finding the perfect gift can be a challenge. But if there's a golf run your list and I've

got a bunch on mine, it's easy. Give the number one gift and golf. Tidalist. I like to give

Tidalist golf balls because I love getting them myself. My dad, when I was a kid, every Christmas, you know, you get

golf clubs occasionally. You might get a driver here or a putter here that you ask four months

in advance. But my dad would always, always, always give me a dozen titleless golf balls.
