About this episode
The Snake Pit bit a bunch of guys this week at The Valspar, and the back 9 on Sunday did not disappoint as Victor Hovland outlasted Justin Thomas. Rory's young protege from Hollywood is seeming to ignore all of Rory's advice as a jump to LIV golf is in the cards for Tom McKibben. The US Team announced their new Solheim Cup Captain, friend of the podcast Angela Stanford, who will lead the ladies into The Netherlands next year. This weekend's premiere junior golf tournament, the Sage Valley Jr Invitational, got a lot of attention. Not just for the winner (Miles Russell at -9), but for Charlie Wood's average result, and the incredibly poor showing of Donald Trump's eldest grandchild. Tiger made an uncharacteristic social media post about his new relationship, prompting questions of what he actually means for golf's GOAT and the ex-wife of Donald Trump Jr (and mother President Trump's eldest grandchild). The PGA TOUR now heads to Texas for the Texas Children's Houston Open, where Rory McIlroy will do a tune-up for the Masters. In Tuned In, Alex is excited as his occasional vacation spot of Marco Island was featured on The Americas documentary-series, while also marveling at Celine Dion's golf game after a recent swing post from the Canadian singer. This week's guest is Kira Peterson, a golf content creator in Wisconsin, who chats with Alex about her journey into the game from snowboarding, and what makes golf in Wisconsin so special. March Madness kicked off this past weekend, and the results were... expected. Mostly. NFL Free Agency continues and Michael's Giants have finally made a big splash in the QB market... for someone you wouldn't expect. Baseball kicks off it's season for real this week after last week's 2-game Tokyo Series. As the guys #AlwaysEndWithFood, they break down this year's menu at the Champions Dinner at The Masters, as Scottie Scheffler makes a few small tweaks from last year's menu. Support our friends!
