2025 American Express Reaction + TC’s Return from Argentina | NLU Pod, Ep 944

Sepp Straka wins at Mr. Dye’s Stadium Course in La Quinta with JT coming in second by two shots. We talk all things Amex, some notable WDs, the Genesis moving from Riv due to the LA fires, Tyrrell winning in Dubai, Hovland’s quotes, and the DP World Tour’s viral social video from earlier this week.

Then, it’s on to our Back Nine of the episode highlighted by TC’s trip to Argentina (49:00), LIV’s TV deal and new CEO, a new segment highlighting someone in golf that Not Enough People Talk About, TGL’s week three and DJ closes our the Back Nine with an amazing Bob Uecker story (1:40:00).

As a sign-off – we have a midweek NLU Special Projects episode coming from KVV about tee times at Bethpage which he and DJ tease ahead of the episode’s release which will hit your feeds on Wednesday morning.

  1. Sepp Straka on Hole 1 or 2 on Saturday hit it right and it landed just to the left of a cart path. I don't think it was a drop situation. I should have timed it. Had to be like 3 minutes or more. like 4X the allowed amount. Jason Day had to be livid. They even had the PGA rule guy pop in bottom right to talk but said nothing about the time it took to hit the shot. Even after there was maybe a ruling needed.

  2. This tee time fiasco is 100% happening in Vancouver, Canada, too. It's insane trying to get a tee time at a local muni.
