Summary

Andy and Brendan are back for the finale of the Year in Review, picking up with the PGA Tour’s visit to Congress for a hearing on its “merger” with the PIF and going all the way through to the last low gross championship of the PGA Tour season. Before YiR, they begin quickly with some amusements from an article on recent LIV transactions, some Q-school thoughts, and a dispatch from the ground watching El Pato’s return to golf after getting out of jail. Then it’s another beefy Year in Review session, from the Senators getting off some insane questions to Tour execs to a wildly amusing British Open and into the Playoffs. This is the usual SGS approach to the year in review, focusing more on the amusing, inane, and extraordinary and it will continue to roll out over the next several weeks in multiple parts to be enjoyed at your convenience during the holiday season.
