    2025/05/05
    Andy's time across the pond is winding down but he still calls in to join Brendan for a celebration of life for TPC Craig Ranch. For all its faults, the course was able to find the best player in the field this week as Scottie Scheffler tied the PGA Tour scoring record at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson. Andy and Brendan discuss Scottie's historic win and dig into some scoring numbers for the par fives at TPC Craig Ranch this week. Will things still be the same following Lanny's renovation? We'll have to wait a year to find out! From there, the two recap Bryson DeChambeau finally closing out a Sunday lead with his win at LIV Korea. PJ shares some late-night broadcast thoughts and comments on the state of Richard Bland's game heading into the senior majors. Jon Rahm finished in the top 10 again, but Andy isn't sure this streak means as much as LIV thinks it does. In news, Rory drops some hints about next year's Champions Dinner at the Masters to an old friend, and Andy provides three stories from his time with Fried Egg Golf Club in Scotland.

    Rumors, takes, and wild hypotheticals with ‘The Boys’ back in town and an interview on ‘Playing Dirty’
    2025/05/01
    Cue up the Thin Lizzy for this Friday episode as "The Boys" return to the SGS feed. With Andy still overseas, Brendan is joined by Joseph LaMagna and PJ Clark for an insane Friday episode full of conspiracies, horse takes, gorilla hypotheticals, and Golf Advice. After a bit of Kentucky Derby chatter, initial takeaways from the CJ Cup Byron Nelson are shared and Joseph proposes a new "Cam Champ Rule" for PGA Tour venues. The three then preview this week's LIV Korea event and discuss the current state of Jon Rahm, David Puig, and Richard Bland, among others. In news, departments within the PGA Tour are shifting a bit and tournament weeks are now "event weeks" for these local communities. Before Golf Advice, "The Boys" get Brendan's thoughts on the latest 100 men vs. one gorilla hypothetical and wonder which pro golfers would be the biggest assets in this kind of fight. Golf Advice has a Champs Tour legend involved and more hole-in-one discourse. To wrap things up, Brendan chats with Joel Beall about his new book, Playing Dirty, which you can buy here.

    The PGA Tour’s venue problem, LIV’s poor ratings in Mexico, and OWGR awakening?
    2025/04/30
    Andy is still being popped by the pub life in Scotland but recovered enough to join Brendan for a Wednesday morning recording to celebrate the PGA Tour's yearly stop at TPC Craig Ranch. This episode begins with a much-needed Blockie Minute ahead of the fourth and final round of the PGA Professional Championship. Mr. Block, the first round leader, has slipped down the leaderboard and needs a strong finish to qualify for Quail Hollow. Andy is still blacked out from Blockie content overseas and is wondering why the legend of Blockie is not growing internationally. The CJ Cup Byron Nelson begins on Thursday with a field full of Dallas residents and former champions of the event. Brendan sees this event as part of the Tour's venue problem, playing at an uninspiring course that should be soft after some rain this week. In Craig Ranch news, Lanny Wadkins is set to lead the renovation ahead of next year's tournament and is out and about doing press to discuss the project. After a week off for the Zurich, one-and-done picks return as this gambling podcast looks to get back on the right foot. Elsewhere on the schedule, the Champs Tour is also in Texas for the Insperity Invitational, and the LPGA will follow up its first major with a trip to Utah for the Black Desert Championship. Next, PJ shows off his new big letter hat from a trip to TPC River Highlands and Andy proposes a business idea for him to look into ahead of the Ryder Cup this fall. In news, Blades Brown is sticking with a KFT event as opposed to a sponsor exemption this week, LIV TV ratings continue to be low, and 2026 Presidents Cup captains were announced.

    The Backboard’s major, Power outage in NOLA, and Blockie’s charge
    2025/04/28
    Andy is off in Scotland and calls in after a late night at the pub to join Brendan for this Monday morning recording. After some unplanned promo for Fried Egg Golf Club, this episode starts with a recognition of the world's best player, Joaquin Niemann, following his third win of the year on LIV. The two compare the three wins of Niemann and Rory McIlroy and wonder who the best player of 2025 truly is. From there, the conversation shifts to an extended Champs Tour Minute, as a power outage at the Zurich Classic allowed everyone to get some bonus coverage from Zinger and Papa on Golf Channel. PJ is overjoyed that the greater viewing public now sees his point about Zinger being kept in a studio as opposed to on the road watching Jerry Kelly outlast Ernie Els at TPC Sugarloaf. Andy and Brendan then move to the Chevron, won by Mao Saigo in a five-way playoff, the largest in LPGA history. Brendan points out the egregious backboarding opportunity available on the 18th hole and Andy shares some local reporting from The Woodlands about the lack of advertising for the event. On the PGA Tour, social media sensation Ben Griffin and NFL Draft pundit Andrew Novak teamed up for their first PGA Tour win(s) at the Zurich Classic, beating the Hojgaard twins following some interesting drops on the 72nd hole. This episode quickly runs through some news to wrap things up, including the latest from Michael Block as he looks to qualify for Quail Hollow.

    A Podcast with "The Boys"
    2025/04/23
    Rumor has it that Brendan is still in line to ride Hagrid's Motorbike Adventure, so Andy is joined by "The Boys" (Joseph LaMagna and PJ Clark) to preview the Zurich Classic and the rest of this week in golf. Andy and Joseph run through some notable pairings for this week's team event on the PGA Tour, a tournament that some have called the "Mule Super Bowl." Joseph shares his take that more players should participate in the Zurich due to the amount of FedEx Cup points at stake in an event where one can be carried by a teammate. Andy and "The Boys" make up a few teams that they wish were in the field for this week, calling back memories of iconic moments in SGS history and wondering how some players could earn their first wins on the PGA Tour. Andy grills PJ about the future of Champions Tour Minute following his big interview with John Daly, and the Senior Tour's return is previewed ahead of the Mitsubishi Classic. Joseph and Andy run through the top storylines ahead of the first women's major of the year, the Chevron Championship, taking place in Texas this weekend. In news, Xander Schauffele debuted his new app and has PJ hooked on all of his exclusive content with more to come soon, and a new crop of "creators" are involved in the next Creator Classic, leading to Joseph wondering what Wes Bryan and the rest of the original crew are up to.

    The Rory story’s resonance from the Masters, Augusta cleanup, and In-Out-Alt for Puntacana
    2025/04/16
    Andy and Brendan are back at home after a week in Georgia but still reflecting on what Brendan has deemed "the greatest Masters" of his life. This episode unpacks some of the more emotional elements surrounding Rory's win and subsequent completion of the career slam. The two discuss how Rory's sustained relevance in majors without a win could parallel to struggles in any person's life before comparing McIlroy's current career standing with Phil Mickelson's. Andy wonders what Justin Rose is doing to prepare for majors given his performance in weekly PGA Tour events and also demands apologies from the Corey Conners contingent who were not pleased with his takes last week. Picks are made for the RBC Heritage as this gambling podcast looks to stay hot after picking another winner last week. PJ then hosts a lengthy round of In-Out-Alternate for this week's alternate field event in PuntaCana, featuring some SGS favorites and plenty of winners from the early 2010s. Brendan wraps things up with some quick bits of news, including a "creator" exemption into the 'Cuda, before heading off to Disney World, where Rory may or may not be celebrating his Masters win.
