Brendan is joined by Joseph LaMagna to recap an astounding end to Sunday at the Wyndham Championship with Matt Kuchar abandoning his ball on the 72nd hole due to darkness even as the rest of the field finished the tournament. The two dissect every angle of this unique situation, including a live reaction to Kuchar’s explanation for this move and have a conversation about all of the people who will be affected by Kuchar’s one-hole return on Monday morning. They then wrap up the Wyndham by giving props to Aaron Rai on his first career PGA Tour win and discuss Max Greyserman’s wild finish that cost him the lead. After that, Joseph and Brendan talk through Lydia Ko’s gold medal win at the Paris Olympics and both declare that they are “in” on Le Golf National after two weeks of quality golf. Before wrapping things up, Producer PJ jumps in for a Senior Tour Minute as Bob Papa was able to make it to Seattle for the Boeing this weekend following the Giants’ preseason game on Thursday. To finish the episode, Joseph decides to share that he wasn’t a fan of U.S. Men’s Basketball’s thrilling gold medal win over France despite Steph Curry’s heroics.

Love the show
Great show as usual…this is the kind of stuff that makes me think that there will never be a solution to the LIV/PGA Tour issue(s) as long as player reps are involved in the negotiations.
Steve Sands was saying that such and such golfer was "x number of shots out of the medal podium" if the first f**king round of a 4 round tournament! LOL.
Come on Joseph, do a little research, English reportedly has a bad back…it's easily available information.
Joseph is the best 😂 gotta go with 'JAMD' for the tshirt
If a tree falls in the forest and Matt Kuchar plays half a hole… 😜🌺✌️⛳
Over 5-hours for a competitive round, now you know why I only watch the back nine of the final round. However, the PGA Tour is the best competition other than the major championships. This year has been exciting and great competitions, the PGA Tour can and should stand on its own, no need for change.
