Andy and Brendan are back on a Victory Monday for the Ballfrogs to talk Castle Pines and the golf year's final major. They start at St. Andrews, where Lydia Ko pulled off the win to add to her Olympic gold from earlier this month. The two discuss whether Lydia won the Women's Open or if it was really Nelly Korda who lost it, the pace-of-play issues that plagued the tournament, and other odds and ends from a week at the Home of Golf. After that, the Swag Golf Sports Minute debuts, with Andy wondering why Week Zero exists in college football before he reveals his new secret weapon for fantasy football success. The conversation then seamlessly shifts to the FedEx Cup Playoffs, where Captain Keegan Bradley made his Presidents Cup case stronger with a win at the BMW Championship. They break down Adam Scott's post-round comments about his struggles and the impact his age may be having on his current form, the likelihood that Keegan is going to play for the United States in Montreal, and Brendan comes up with the "club-toss test" to see if an event really matters to those playing in it. After a look at the DP World Tour's stop in Denmark, Producer PJ gives an update on where Bob Papa was this weekend in the latest Senior Tour Minute.
