  • ‘Hit Driver Everywhere’ Tour bops Philly, and Less juice: Creator Classic or PGA Champ?

    ‘Hit Driver Everywhere’ Tour bops Philly, and Less juice: Creator Classic or PGA Champ?
    May 8 2025
    Finally back at home, Andy is in great spirits for this episode and surprises Brendan! by claiming a Victory Friday for the city of Chicago following the election of Pope Leo XIV. After plenty of midwest sports talk and an NBA playoffs check-in, the two recap the much-anticipated first round of the Truist, played at Philly Cricket Club. Brendan goes full Data Boy and shares some insight into Rory's round and the "big bops" he's hitting on the 7,100-yard course. Andy and Brendan discuss how events at courses like Philly Cricket Club show the need for an equipment rollback as these places are overpowered by today's game. Next week's PGA Championship is briefly previewed, as Andy wonders why there's "no juice" for a major championship. In news, Detroit looks to be getting the first TGL expansion team - much to Andy's chagrin - and Brendan shares another piece of PJ's "Forrest Gump" past life. Following a recap of the Creator Classic, Andy and Brendan answer some Golf Advice questions before Sports Minute wraps things up after some of the Pope's Chicago sports allegiances are revealed.

    Curious PGA exemptions, A rare stop at a Golden Age gem in Philly, The ratings war continues
    May 7 2025
    Andy is back in the states and begins this episode by telling Brendan! about his time at Oakmont for U.S. Open media day. The two share their excitement for next month's tournament and dig into some setup talk about green speeds and the membership requesting the winning score be over par. From there, it's a big week on the PGA Tour as the inaugural Truist Championship takes place at Philadelphia Cricket Club, a Golden Age design. Andy and Brendan debate whether this course will be long enough to test the pros and lament that a week of wet weather in the northeast may lead to low scores on the 7,100-yard track. One-and-done picks are made for the big purse at stake with a limited field tuning up for the PGA Championship. Elsewhere, the alternate field event in Myrtle Beach has a stronger-than-usual field, headlined by Tom Kim. There's some Creator Classic chatter ahead of the new team-style event on Wednesday, with Andy wondering where Fat Perez's game is at these days. In news, ratings are out for the CJ Cup Byron Nelson and LIV Korea, and the U.S. Ryder Cup contingent (minus one big name) allegedly met for dinner in Philly on Tuesday night.

    May 5 2025
    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.
