Summary
Andy and Brendan close out the week, and open a new month, with this Friday episode checking in on the Olympics golf competition from Paris. First, there’s a check-in on the Bears, Jets, and some questions about 3-on-3 basketball and how an alt-event like that might work in golf. There’s also some gatekeeping about what should be an actual Olympic sport, like speedwalking? They discuss early action from Le Golf National, such as Wyndham Clark’s early troubles, the discourse around him and who should qualify for a team, and the golf course as a variety test. Then they close it out with Golf Advice on Member-Guest appreciation ideas and a psycho starter trying to get a player to go back in and pay a dynamic pricing hike.
