    State Open comparisons and lots of Golf Advice with Vince India
    Jul 26 2024
    It's another jam-packed Friday Golf Advice episode as Andy is joined by pro Vince India. To start, the two discuss Vince's week at the Colorado State Open and how this week's competition compares to other state opens around the country. They then touch on the breaking news of Southwest Airlines going to reserve seating, something that will surely impact these world travelers. Vince shares a quick story from his first time playing with Blockie before Andy acknowledges forgetting that LIV London was part of this week's schedule and comments on the Majesticks' Pub on the course. To wrap things up, Vince and Andy hit a bunch of Golf Advice emails, including a slow-playing junior, the "worst tradition in sports," and when it's time to get a hotel for your golf trip.

Next, Andy and Shane go down the FedEx Cup points list to see who's at risk of missing the playoffs with just two events left in the regular season. To wrap things up, the duo share quick thoughts on this week's U.S. Junior Amateur Championship at Oakland Hills.

  • The Open recap: Xander’s ascendance, Course critiques, and men’s majors review

    The Open recap: Xander’s ascendance, Course critiques, and men’s majors review
    Jul 22 2024
    It was the kind of weekend that made you think about the big things as it relates to men’s golf, its star talents, its playing fields, and its past, present, and future. Andy and Brendan bob and weave through this Monday episode that runs the gamut after the last men’s major of the year. They begin with some important questions on the FedExCup before getting into Xander Schauffele’s win, his season, and what this victory does for the rest of his career. Then they discuss Scottie Scheffler and the ongoing flaw in his otherwise elite game and how that will work at future Opens. They cover Royal Troon in depth, with much praise and a few quibbles on how it set up for the pros. Is it a better championship test for men’s golf than the Old Course right now? They discuss Billy Boy and Rosey, Thriston and all the other contenders before getting to a few of the non-contenders like Spieth, JT, Rory, Rahm, and their major seasons. They close with Matthew Jordan appreciation and some less-than-appreciative comments on the coverage.
