Summary

Garrett and Meg kick off this Tuesday show with some thoughts on the Women's PGA Championship: the background and playing style of Ruoning Yin, the 20-year-old champion; the continued excellence of Rose Zhang; and the continued failures of the networks to air women's major championships in a suitable fashion. Garrett then checks in with Ben Coley (@BenColeyGolf) of Sporting Life about the state of the DP World Tour (28:31). Garrett and Ben talk about the (increasingly distant) possibility of a "links season" consisting of the Irish, Scottish, and British Opens as well as the tour's uncertain positioning in—or perhaps outside of—the burgeoning alliance between the PGA Tour and the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund. To go out on a more lighthearted note, Garrett and Ben wrap up with some recommendations (1:00:36).

0:52.0	I hope that Ronin buys the house or moves out, so we maybe don't have to hear about that.
0:59.0	It was great to see Yucca back playing so well.
1:05.0	It's so fun just being able to watch her swing.
1:08.0	I was pulling for her down the stretch.
1:12.0	Plenty of catnet about there, between the landlord story and Yucca.
1:19.0	I hope if she starts playing better more frequently, we get past the Rory comp and learn a little bit more about her,
1:28.0	because she's got a great personality, and it was awesome to see her back in it.

1:34.0	What's the better catnet?

1:37.0	That's got more play for sure.
1:39.0	It's gotten more play, and also, I think it's better catnet, because it's one thing to study Rory McAroy videos,
