Summary

Did you enjoy the PGA Tour’s offseason? Yeah… so did we! We’re back at you again with a Safeway Open less than 24 hours after Dustin Johnson took home a large payday and the FedEx Cup at the TOUR Championship. Sit back, relax and enjoy this episode of The First Cut Podcast… The FedEx Cup was handed out one week ago, now let’s start looking at next year’s FedEx Cup! We start off by hammering just how crucial it can be to gain those crucial FedEx Cup points early in the season (2:38). Phil Mickelson is one of two superstars in the field this week. Lefty is coming off a debut win on the PGA Tour Champions. How likely is it that Phil can bring that momentum over to the PGA Tour (11:45). Jordan Spieth is the other superstar playing this week. As we’ve mentioned once or twice, his form has not been up to major caliber. What’s our confidence level in him this week and will he ever win again (18:15)? After the break we’re coming at you with our Matchup Bets (30:25), Expert Picks (44:15), One & Done Leans (50:25) and Best Bets (52:15). ————————— Check us out on YouTube for video podcasts and exclusive content, visit https://www.youtube.com/FirstCutPodcast 'First Cut' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
