Bubs is on holiday, so it's Dazzler and Trottie carrying the show this week. Trottie talks about a US member-guest chip-off that descends into a forty-person standoff after a kid turns round when he shouldn't. Someone nearly gets disqualified, and Trottie almost tells the wrong guy to go back to Oregon. From there it's straight into a long drive bracket where he draws the section he privately calls the Thug Group, finds forty extra yards on the range by accident, and somehow makes the final off a driver he wasn't even planning to use.

The boys talk about how a rules official's leg turns a playable lie into a gorse bush at the Women's Open, and they ask the question golf keeps avoiding: when the same kind of moment keeps swinging tournaments away from certain players, is that still just bad luck? Trottie takes it back to Costantino Rocca and John Daly to make the point.

Infantino's under fire for World Cup ticket prices that would bankrupt a family of four, and the guys ask plainly how much money is ever enough.

Plus: Nelly Korda's 66-degree wedge and why she won't hit a shot that doesn't draw, Dazzler falling asleep in the Augusta grandstand after a self-inflicted food poisoning disaster, Charlie Hull's scratch card prank, and the Wilson 8802 tape story Trottie still won't let die.
