Summary
Andy and Brendan load in for an all-time round of Contender or Pretender as we head to the final round of the 2026 Masters. They discuss Rory McIlroy losing his six-shot lead with haste, as a host of talented chasers came and went at him on the leaderboard on Saturday, none more so than Cameron Young, much to PJ Clark’s delight. They run through the entire board, including sheriff of the fair police Scottie Scheffler, and debate who is game for Sunday. Should we be ringing alarm bells on Rory after the way he hit it in the third round? There is also some lengthy and emotional discussion about the setup of the golf course and the critique that Augusta National went too soft. They rip through some Storylines No One is Talking About for one final night before closing it out with an amusing story from under the tree and their picks to win it all on Sunday.
