  • Abrupt Ending

    This used to be the best podcast but Immelman and Gehman left the podcast without even saying bye to the audience. We deserve an explanation as to why they left!

  • Second Cut

    The boys are back. Absolute must-listen if you’re into golf. They hit a great mix of analysis, betting angles, course fit, and analytics every tournament.

    What sets them apart is the consistency. doesn’t matter if it’s the Zurich or the Masters, they bring the same effort every time AND they do mid tournament recap Friday night.

  • Delighted to find this. Loved the old show and only just found this new one. Probably because Elon Musk is a bad egg and I left the tweet machine.

Cognizant Classic Mega Preview | Picks, Storylines, Best Bets
Q: How do you feel about bifurcation?
The hosts discuss bifurcation as a potential split in equipment and rules between pros and recreational players, noting the complexity and wide-ranging implications across ball design, majors, and different tours, while acknowledging that a full split is unlikely but that some form of partial bifurcation could emerge by 2030.
American Express Mega Preview | Picks, Storylines, Best Bets
Q: What are ways that you can actually separate yourself on these three courses?
The hot putter is crucial, along with strong wedge play.
Ice Cream, Tiger Woods & TGL Season 2 Preview | Claire Rogers on The Second Cut
Q: How did the idea for your ice cream interviews come to be?
The idea came during a meeting where I realized I could combine my love for ice cream with interviews, bringing a fun twist to conversations with golfers.
BROOKS KOEPKA LEAVES LIV
Q: What does this mean for Brooks Koepka and the potential trend of players leaving LIV Golf?
There's only a handful of golfers on LIV Golf who would conceivably want to come back to the PGA Tour, and Brooks is obviously one of them.
BROOKS KOEPKA LEAVES LIV
Q: When you see that Brooks is foregoing his final year on LIV Golf, your initial reaction was what?
I can't believe it. I was also thinking about the financial penalty with that contract.
