Summary
Andy and Brendan close out an all-time week with the usual Friday ramble that begins with some of the reentry to home life issues following 10 days away at the Masters and Augusta. Then they get to early action from the Chevron, including Nelly’s push for five, whether to jump in an alligator-infested pond, and if this major kinda stinks. On the RBC Heritage, Andy praises Harbour Town and how it brings different players into the fold but laments its “hangover” spot on the schedule. They also bring up the great coincidence of Pat Cantlay playing well for a big purse, which transitions to the PGA Tour PAC board getting a presentation from Theo Epstein and all that says about the organizational problems. There’s a Puntacana minute that generates a new “game within the game” watch for the weekend. They close with an SGS Golf Advice segment on some Ireland questions and an incredible bet between friends.
