The Shotgun Start

Despite a packed weekend of golf across all levels of the game, this Monday episode begins with a good old-fashioned Sports Minute about the Cleveland Browns. Andy can't help himself and pesters Brendan about his team's quarterback situation, one that will seemingly be resolved (in some form) by Monday night! The two then transition to Wyndham Clark's third win of the season and his bid for 2026 PGA Tour Player of the Year. Wyndham outlasted Rory McIlroy at Bellerive to win the BMW Championship and two (2) trophies for his troubles. Andy and Brendan look at Clark's season in totality and also point out the CBS broadcast mentioning Wyndham's usage of different clubs behind his ball in the rough in the final round. The Boys then jump in from Indianapolis after a long, tiring week of LIV Golf at Chills. PJ and Joseph share their tales of survival after six days monitoring what may be LIV's final event, highlighting a house tour of a greenside mansion, their conversations with some LIV superfans, and the final song that played during Jon Rahm's last hole of the 2026 LIV season. There's even a note about - you guessed it! - Greg Norman's design chops. Brendan then runs through the results from the rest of the world of golf, including another week of Blockie on the Champions Tour, before one final update to the 2026 USA Presidents Cup standings. With Wyndham Clark now automatically qualified, will Ben Griffin be on the team at Medinah? We will return on Wednesday to preview the "Super Bowl of Golf" at East Lake and much more.

Get excited for some weekend viewing consisting of the (formerly) Western Open and a Majesticks Miracle in Indianapolis! Andy is off to the races to start this Friday episode, regaling Brendan! with tales about his new officemates before sharing some thoughts from his morning watching PGA Tour Live. Andy was aghast at the commentary team suggesting that missing the fairway at Bellerive on Thursday was a "full-shot penalty" and points out that the coverage was incredibly pro-Tom Kim. Brendan defends his Jupiter Links superstar from any criticism, leading Andy to admit that maybe the announcers were right - golf is better when Tom Kim is playing well! The two then bring in The Boys, Joseph LaMagna and PJ Clark, for a Riomar Report on their first two days in Indianapolis. The Boys provide some amusing pro-am details, a behind-the-scenes look at their Lunch with Dick Bland, and even some takeaways from Colts-Falcons joint practice before breaking down the first round at LIV Indy. They share a legitimate piece of reporting regarding Tyrrell Hatton's future and whether he'll be sticking around for LIV 2.0 and attempt to describe what it's like on the ground at what may be the final event in LIV history. Stay tuned for more coverage from The Boys as they'll be back for Monday's show with another Riomar Report after the Majesticks try to complete the greatest underdog story in the history of golf!

Summer may be coming to a (merciful) end for Andy and Brendan soon, but not before LIV Golf will finish its 2026 season and maybe entire existence! The two dive into all of the news surrounding this week's makeshift season-ending event in Indianapolis, covering the latest rumors about Jon Rahm's next move, reports of new lawsuits from vendors, and the fact that players have not yet been paid for their finishes at LIV New York. The Boys are already in the great town of Indianapolis and are being encouraged to go "full Woodward and Bernstein" at what may be LIV Golf's final event. PJ is not exactly up for this massive challenge and was looking forward to a week of bits, but things have gotten more serious than anticipated. Andy and Brendan wonder about what players like Jason Kokrak, Talor Gooch, and even Dustin Johnson do next if this is, in fact, the end of the road for LIV as we know it. On the PGA Tour, the once-Western Open heads to Bellerive for another week of sweaty playoff golf. Andy wants this event to break ties with its Western Open heritage and has absolutely no interest in discussing the golf course or the test at hand for the FedEx Cup top 50. Brendan runs through the rest of a loaded Schedule for the Week, including TWO Canadian events, another sponsor invite for Blockie, and the U.S. Senior Women's Open. To wrap things up, the two discuss the Walker Cup picks for Team GB&I before sending The Boys into the unknown at LIV Indy.

Against all odds, The Sheriff has returned to the winner's circle on the PGA Tour. Andy and Brendan discuss a loaded weekend of golf, recapping a rainy U.S. Amateur final, Scottie's sweaty weekend in Memphis, and a full 54 holes from an injured Michael Block! They begin with the U.S. Am at Merion, debating the course's merits as a championship venue in today's game before breaking down the U.S. Walker Cup team selections. Brendan also shares perhaps his favorite story of the year - Ribeye-Gate - which might have cost Jay Leng the win against Jack Whaley. As it turns out, the youths did not learn from a grizzled veteran like Sergio Garcia. Sheriff Scottie took Sgt. Sam Burns for a ride along on Sunday at the FedEx St. Jude, running away from the field despite some petty theft by a rogue sprinkler-head early in the round. Despite a strong effort from Jordan Spieth, only Sungjae Im moved inside the top 50 in the season-long standings to secure Signature Event status for 2027. Andy and Brendan run through Spieth's post-round comments about "being close," and dive into Rory McIlroy's belief that he needs a miracle to be in contention next week at Bellerive. The two recap some more results from the weekend before previewing The Boys' upcoming trip to Indianapolis for LIV Indy, where they hope to have lunch with Ian Poulter and much, much more.

An "invigorated" Brendan kicks off this Friday episode with some observations from two days at Merion Golf Club as the 2026 U.S. Amateur has now reached the match play rounds. He and Andy discuss the early results and they wonder if the USGA should re-seed the bracket to avoid top players facing each other too early. Brendan also passes along some feedback from the ground about Wednesday's segment regarding Ben Hogan's famous one-iron, but Andy doubles down on the fact that the plaque could be better served commemorating a different moment from Hogan's round. The two debate Merion's status as a top-tier championship venue and whether it could host a U.S. Open given its current setup, with more to come on this topic on Monday. In Memphis, Jordan Spieth is out to an early lead at the FedEx St. Jude as he looks to finish in the top ten for the first time this season. Rory McIlroy turned in a 74 in his first competitive round since Birkdale, but he'll have to suffer through three more days of the heat given this is a no-cut event. On Thursday morning, James Corrigan reported that LIV officials were "resigned" to the fact that Jon Rahm will not return for the 2027 season, seemingly setting him up for a full year on the DP World Tour instead. Andy and Brendan discuss what this means for LIV 2.0 and its possible lone star, Bryson DeChambeau. Lastly, Kevin Van Valkenburg once again joins for a B. Draddy Flashback Friday focusing on the 2000 Presidents Cup and a rivalry between Tiger Woods and a famous caddie.

We’re returning to SPACE for a Presidents Cup week Live Show Presented by B.Draddy! Join us in Chicago on September 21 - doors will open at 5 pm and show begins at 7 pm. Tickets go on sale on Friday at 11 AM ET.
