Andy and Brendan are punchy for the Players preview, which will have you feeling as unprepared as ever for the PGA Tour’s gold standard. They react to the full day of press conferences following a players meeting in the TPC Sawgrass clubhouse. Jay Monahan’s hour at the mic is given a review, as is Rory McIlroy’s presser and others’ comments reacting to James Hahn and some grumbling from the middle tier. They talk a little about TPC Sawgrass and what continues to make it a unique event and test, and then rifle through some of the worst, best, and most amusing tee times for the first two rounds. News hits on Netflix ordering another season of Full Swing and then it’s another handful of rambling segments on various characters signs us off before the start of the 5th major.
