Summary
Andy and Brendan are absolutely giddy for this Wednesday episode and they don’t take long diving into some of the strange and amusing teams slated for the Zurich Classic, the annual stop in New Orleans. There’s also a sudden and lengthy digression on the announcement of the Jupiter Links team via social media video, which brings its own set of questions. Then they get back to the PGA Tour event, and another edition of Cutthroat Corner, which has been re-branded to Cochran Corner for this week. They dive into the great longevity of Russ Cochran’s career, which continues with a start in the Zurich. This leads to a #FBF style segment on something called the Tournament Players Series, where Cochran won twice in the early ‘80s. They rip through schedule for the week, talk about the Bears draft anticipation this week, and then close out news with reports of Rory McIlroy returning to the PGA Tour board.
