Hello friends and welcome to this golf podcast unlike any other we've done it we've made it all the way to the last moment on the PGA tour schedule.

0:40.0

My friends this is fairway roll.

0:48.0

The golf podcast on the ringer podcast network I am your starter Joe House on the line our PGA tour correspondent on the ground as always Nathan Hubbard and a very special guest today on the fairway roll and just off of his experience at the WGC event down in Memphis.

1:08.0

In Memphis, the St. Jude, the homie himself max homie is on the show to talk to us about how he's feeling coming up into the FedEx Cup playoffs.

1:20.0

We're going to start off as a two ball though me and Nate has some things we have to hash out over what's happened in the world of golf over the past couple of weeks.

1:27.0

Let's throw a peg in the ground and try and hit one down the middle.

1:34.0

Yo Nate dog house is swinging. There's a lot going on house. There's a lot. We got a lot coming. This is a fun sneaky fun golf time of year.

1:45.0

We have a lot to talk about that's happened. We have a lot to talk about that's going to happen in the next month.

1:50.0

So let's start speaking of sneaky fun with your reaction to the Olympics. They are now in our rearview mirror.

1:59.0

The men's competition preceded the women's competition. For me, there was a difference between the two competitions. I don't want to tip my hand about my own sentiments because I want your reaction as you consumed the men's and the women's golf competitions in the Olympics. What was your overall reaction.

2:20.0

Well, I was exhausted because I stayed up until two in the morning. You did watching the bronze medal playoff because we had major winners galore in that thing.

2:31.0

I mean, Colin Morakawa, Matsuyama, yes, bring it all on. I thought it was a lot of fun to see 150 guys on a tee box trying to figure out who was going first with six guys in a group or whatever.

2:47.0

We almost got six guys in one group. That was going to be terrific. But listen, I liked it more than I thought I would. I have to admit that I watched with more excitement, the women's competition than I did the men.

3:01.0

I don't know if that's because I was just really excited about pulling for Nelly. She roped me right in with that near 59. I was heavily invested in the women's side a lot more than I was in the men's although shout out to all the guys who played in the men's competition because they certainly overtly made us feel like it mattered to them.

3:24.0

Rory sort of changed his tune about it. Zander clearly was moved just in Thomas, even though he was out of it made it, you know, he definitely had the same kinds of feelings that Fowler had when he played, which is this really feels like it matters.

3:36.0

So I enjoyed it. I think they should think about format changes going forward potentially mixing up men and women maybe, but this was better than I thought and with Paris and LA to come golf should definitely stay in the Olympics.

3:50.0

Yeah, I'm with you, not surprisingly, I share virtually all of your sentiments about virtually all of the Olympic experience, particularly the women, the women really captured my imagination.

4:05.0

And I think some of that has to do with the fact that the women, the LPGA tour doesn't often occupy the stage in the way that the women's golf event did.

4:20.0

And there really was not any competition up against that like the time in a way, the time difference in Tokyo played in the women's favor because it meant, you know, watching, there was no other sports for me to really be interested in.
