  1. Interview of week JT on Friday saying cut line nerves are often worse than being in contention to win.

    Adam Hadwin legend!

    Lav scudding Rory, no!

    Great pod.

  2. Love your podcast, but one suggestion:

    Since a good percentage of your listeners are listening to the audio only version of this podcast, you should mention when there’s a great visual we should run to YouTube if we wanna see it .

    I mean, I got the idea when you were talking about Adam, and Patton K. that there was probably a video element to it, but just go ahead and mention it next time like “ if you guys wanna see this, we are showing it on the YouTube version!”

  3. Rex and Ryan, you should have got this desk a year ago. A distant podcast is not good for anyone. You both need to be at the same desk and the same studio to breakdown all the shots, both good and bad of the tournament. The podcast or show should never be before the first round on Thursday. It should always be after the final round on Sunday or depending on circumstances, another day when you can both be together, Monday to Wednesday. This is just my opinion, don’t take it to heart. I understand why you both had to be in different states. One was recording and reporting and the other was simply relaxing. Enjoy being on set with a full camera crew and lights, instead of just a webcam from a laptop or even in Rex’s case a smart phone. It still worked. ❤❤❤

  4. Is it me or the media seeks validation and if not given, they attempt to ostracize a player. I know people are fans of good golf, didn’t realize golfers ought to communicate a great deal. Can you talk your way into winning a major 😅😅😅

  5. I can’t stand how in love everyone is with Justin Thomas. Dude is so overrated. Of course he’s going to do long interviews, for a long time it was the only way he could stay relevant so he’s used to it. Great show 😂

  6. In case anybody is wondering here is the list for US Ryder Cup team: Scottie Xander Collin Russell Henley Bryson and JJ Spaun are the 6 auto as of now. Glad they answered my question. I think Viktor was very lucky that he won. JT pissed away that tournament for sure. JTs Performance in the snake pit and the fact he did it at +2 is the ONLY reason that Viktor won. Sometimes you can have your D game and still win thats another thing that Viktors win told us. I think that commment from Pro Golf Critic was saying that Scottie can only a bully in signature events. He hasnt won a full field event outside the Players. That course played easy over the weekends thats why JT was the runner up. He was +1 after 2 rounds. Played -11 over the weekend and lost by 1.
