    A rollback case in Detroit, Morikawa media dust-up, and The Cleeks “re-brand” aspirations
    Jun 26 2025
    Whiparound Fridays return as Andy and Brendan cover the 2025 NBA Draft, Collin Morikawa's latest media beef, and a massive Cleeks profile in Forbes in this episode. Sports Minute kicks off with some frustration from Andy about the Bulls front office and how they've handled the NBA Draft as of this recording. It was ball-in-hand on Thursday at the Rocket Classic, resulting in the course record being broken by Burly Boy Aldrich Potgieter and Kevin Roy, son of Patirck. Andy's one-and-done pick Min Woo Lee had the early lead with a 63 and followed up his round with some interesting comments to the media. Brendan and Andy discuss why this event at Detroit Golf Club exemplifies the need for a rollback and shine some light on the issues highlighted by Dr. Chipinski. In other Detroit news, Collin Morikawa has another new caddie and some beef with a media member following an article published on Wednesday. The Cleeks have decided to "re-brand" themselves in an effort to become as culturally relevant as Jordan, Ferrari, and the New York Yankees and Cleeks lifer Brendan is loving what he's hearing from his team's new leadership. There's a brief check-in on the U.S. Senior Open before things wrap up with two Golf Advice questions as we hit peak member-guest season.

    This Wednesday episode is an in-person recording on Long Island as Andy and Brendan pregame the 2025 Fried Egg Golf Club Member-Guest.

Picks are made and PJ is calling for a "now-or-never" week for NYGC superstar Cameron Young. Elsewhere, it's another Senior Tour major as the U.S. Senior Open takes place in Colorado without defending champion Dick Bland.

    Andy and Brendan are fired up for four months full of Ryder Cup discourse following Captain Keegan Bradley's win at the Travelers! They discuss the impact of this win on the American Ryder Cup team on both the captaincy, which Bradley said he would not relinquish, and the back half of the roster for Bethpage Black. The two also talk through Tommy Fleetwood's latest runner-up finish on the PGA Tour after failing to convert the 54-hole lead for what would have been his first career win in America. With Signature Events wrapped up, Brendan shares some #data on sponsor exemptions into these events and the results may shock you! From there, Andy goes deep on the course setup for the KPMG Women's PGA at PGA Frisco. Minjee Lee was able to separate from the pack and win her third career major championship, but many players were outspoken about an "unfair" setup. PJ chimes in with some blow-by-blow of the Kaulig Companies Championship where Miguel Angel Jimenez took down Steven Alker in a playoff. To wrap things up, some scuttlebutt from the ground at Travelers is shared regarding the most famous member of TPC River Highlands, Chris Berman.

    Jun 15 2025
    Sheriff's Deputy Sam Burns has the solo lead after 54 holes at the 2025 U.S. Open! Andy and Brendan made it back from Muddy-mont and recapped a Saturday filled with slips and slides on and off the course. They talk Adam Scott turning back the clock and contending at his 24th U.S. Open, J.J. Spaun's inability to go away, and a loitering Viktor Hovland despite struggles off-the-tee. Scottie Scheffler is deemed "too far back" to win the title after 72 holes, but Cameron Young is a potential dark-horse contender following his best iron play of the year. Rory spoke to the media about speaking to the media, opening a discussion on his week as a whole.
