About this episode
This Friday morning episode is full of life with the race for Low Rory absolutely heating up at Kasumigaseki with 36 more holes to play for the gold medal. Andy and Brendan discuss some early Olympics storylines -- who or what would be the best case winner, the mixed-bag and somewhat underwhelming leaderboard, limited-field feaster Xander, the low 60s dartboard potential for the weekend, and of course, the Slovak surge. Then they have a debate about the merits of 3-on-3 basketball (featuring Robbie Hummel) being in the Olympics, and what the golf analog would be for such a mickey mouse event. At the U.S. Senior Women’s Open, they discuss Annika coming fresh off the celebrity tour circuit and to the top of the leaderboard at Brooklawn. Some loud sea gulls interrupt the recording late but there are also updates on the Western Amateur and the hole-out finish at the PA Amateur.
