About this episode
The PGA and LPGA teamed up for their annual team event, the Grant Thorton Shootout, where a new pairing took the win wire-to-wire. Meanwhile, Michael wonders why the PGA's best don't show up while the LPGA's does. Plus excitement at what may be coming to the Olympics in LA in 2028. The DP World Tour had their annual episode of Planet Earth with a side of golf in South Africa for the Alfred Dunhill Championship, where local Shaun Norris had to wait it out after posting a score for the win. This weekend is the annual PNC Championship, where all eyes will be on Tiger Woods as he returns to play with son Charlie. But other parent-child teams are more likely to win this fun event. Alex is headed to Frisco, TX to see the Frisco Bowl and check in with friends from his last trip to the Dallas area. In Tuned In, Alex is sharing his take on the season finale of Yellowstone, while the Top 10 is now very full of Christmas songs. This week's guest is Blair Wortsmith, who the guys first met at the Desire Cup at TPC Sawgrass in 2023. Blair, the Director of Programs and Operations for the Danny Wuerffel Foundation, is also the Fan Experience Producer for SEC Nation on ESPN. Blair chats with Alex and shares what its like being on the road every weekend with the SEC Nation team, what it was like meeting Matthew McConaughey, and how her British boyfriend first reacted to American football. The Lady Vols of Tennessee broke the record for the most 3-pointers made in a game, beating out a record held by 2-teams in the men's side of the ball. In College Football, Bowl Season is now upon us, and this weekend's first slate of games in the CFB Playoffs makes Michael ask: does anyone really like Notre Dame? Plus, a new addition to the college landscape is making massive shifts in the game. In the NFL, Michael's Giants continue to suck in new sucky ways, Alex's Patriots continue to lose, and the Chiefs continue to win. As the guys #AlwaysEndWithFood, Alex is ready for all the great eats in Frisco, while Michael has his Christmas menu also all set. Support our friends!
