It’s a Players Championship preview episode with Andy and Brendan together in Jacksonville for this rousing and wide-ranging chat on “the gold standard.” They begin with news that the PGA Tour is going to use an “AI setup tool” to help set up courses going forward. They then bounce around all over the place with notes from a day of press conferences with Jay Monahan, Justin Thomas, Scottie Scheffler, and Collin Morikawa, who said he doesn’t “owe anyone anything.” They bat around who would gain the most from a win at Sawgrass, and who needs it most at this point in their career. PJ relays some amusing insights from his day on the ground, including a visit to the merch tent and Chainsmokers Concert. Brendan discusses why he’s in love with TPC Sawgrass while Andy offers some conditioning laments. They close with an update from big Jay on the state of the deal and if there’s a possibility there might just not be one with the PIF.
