Summary

Rick Gehman, Kyle Porter and Jonathan Coachman are previewing the 2022 John Deere Classic and discuss LIV Golf's first stateside tournament. 0:00 - PGA Tour Strategic Alliance Strengthens 35:10 - Best Bets & Expert Picks 46:00 - One & Done Selections The LIV Golf series is set to host its second tournament this week as 48 players compete at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club in North Plains, Oregon. This week's event will be the LIV tour's first stop in the United States, which is expected to host five of the league's eight events. Charl Schwartzel was the winner of the LIV Tour's inaugural event at LIV Golf London, winning $4.75 million in the process. Schwartzel will be part of the 2022 LIV Golf Portland field, which also features the likes of Dustin Johnson, Brooks Koepka, Phil Mickelson, Bryson DeChambeau and Sergio Garcia. If Lucas Glover is able to finish on top of the leaderboard this week at the 2022 John Deere Classic, he'll become the first golfer since Steve Stricker (2009-11) to successfully defend his title. Glover will have to stave off a number of serious contenders if he wants to rewrite the history books. Webb Simpson, Jason Day and Stricker are among the experienced players looking to dethrone Glover and win the John Deere Classic 2022. --- Check us out on YouTube for video podcasts and exclusive content, visit youtube.com/FirstCutPodcast Get 20% off First Cut merch in the CBS Sports Store: https://store.cbssports.com/collections/first-cut?utm_source=podcast-apple-com&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=buy-our-merch&utm_content=first-cut-collection 'First Cut' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
