Andy and Brendan are back for another major championship. This preview episode begins not with talk of gnomes but rather garbage plates, and who might be suckered into indulging in one in player dining. There’s also some anti-Wegman’s chatter. Then they get to the major, noting the field and the potential for losing Jordan Spieth, who was on site and being diagnosed by many amateur doctors. The course is previewed, focusing on some of the punishing stretches and internal OB on the front nine. The traditional best tee times goes in a million directions, on Rory, Rahm, burly boys, Ryder Cup scouting, and the LIV options (Bryson?) for the week. The weekly press conference parade is dissected as well, with more notes on Rory’s reticence, Rahm’s abdication, Waugh’s waffling on the rollback, and yes, of all people, Shaun Micheel. They close with one and done picks, the moment everyone’s waiting for in the greater gambling community.
