Andy and Brendan are AMPED for the finale of the FedExCup season at East Lake. They ramble all over the place talking about the 2026 Presidents Cup and TPC Craig Ranch renovations before they get there though. At East Lake, they discuss some early player grumbles about Andrew Green’s restoration work for the home of the Tour Championship. They discuss the FedExCup Starting Strokes format now five years into the experiment. They make some picks for East Lake AND the Creator Classic, which is discussed at length and what it means to the PGA Tour. They also discuss the great Curtis Cup rota, an incredible claim made at the DP World Tour event this week, and a new LPGA event at a TPC Course that maybe delivered the usual discount to the ladies.

Is Andy back in The Shed??? Details, please!
Blame Billy Ho for slumming at the Corrales Puntacana in April and robbing Wesley Bryan of a schedule for the next few years, unforgiveable. Pity the man sentenced to the Creator Classic.
Think it’s time to consider more structured segments. Andy goes on these long diatribes against the FedEx cup and the tour bare minimum once a week. I have heard the same take from the egg man for the last 2 years. ❤
Jesus the last two episodes are just Andy screech/yelling into the mic. I get it you don't like the end of the season. New editor PJ please turn down his mic when he's screeching. Even Brendan was yelling for long periods of this episode.
I'm a long time listener and the negativity and yelling for long periods of the episodes are a mega turn off. What was quirky and funny with a bit of yelling or frustration has gotten to the point where I am not happy after listening. I used to laugh and feel good about your content. Last two episodes made me angry at the pod not at the pga. DO BETTER.
