Editors Notes: Soly’s video is shaky as it was the first day checking into the rental house in Augusta. However the audio is consistent throughout.
We have a jam packed pod this weekend as Akshay Bhatia wins the Valero, Nelly Korda wins the LPGA Match Play, and Lottie Woad claims the 5th Augusta National Women’s Amateur.
We start in San Antonio where Bhatia won in a playoff over Denny McCarthy after McCarthy’s back nine 28 (!!) to force extra holes. We talk Akshay’s career outlook in light of his second win on tour and try to make sense of McCarthy’s incredible run of birdies before his chunked wedge in the playoff. We also talk Rory, Spieth, and a few other notes ahead of the Masters.
Then it’s on to Las Vegas (30:00) where Nelly Korda wins for the fourth consecutive start as she defeats Leona Maguire to win the LPGA Match Play while Lottie Woad birdies 17 and 18 to win the ANWA (44:00).
We close with some observations from our day at Augusta today (1:10:00), JT’s split from Bones, LIV-Miami, upcoming content this week and more.

Gin like the booze.
To watch Denny have an out of body experience and still sink that putt on 18 and then to birdie it again is bananas. I love that kid.
Soly wears womans large evidently….
Can’t wait for the coverage this week!

Cheers guys! Crack on!
The AK/LIV shotgun marriage is truly one of the saddest golf developments I can remember…the definition of desperate sh#tshow.
You should absolutely send someone to Adelaide. You’ll get a whole lot of positivity about LIV bringing a world class field to Australia and a whole lot of negative sentiment against the PGA tour for essentially forcing all the best players to play almost exclusively in the USA at the expense of the rest of us.
Bryson wants the best players playing against each other on a world tour, not just on the PGA. A concept perhaps you guys missed.
Your analysis of the game is generally good but you let yourself down by mocking everyone and everything connected to LIV.
No mention of Dean Burmesters data golf ranking? Comfortably in the top 50, he should be at the Masters
Cleeks in the sheets vs the Maje-"let's play tummy"- Sticks
The pace of play in the college tournaments on the golf channel is often glacial. Glad Jordan mentioned that quickly. So any tournament with lots of college golfers is going to be an experiment that tests the tolerance of human patience.
Rumour has it that cleeks is a portmanteau for 'clapping cheeks'
