About this episode
A Monday finish, a disappointing debut, new sticks, a Boston sportscaster, and a rising LPGA star on this week's podcast, hosted by Alex Lauzon and Michael Russell. The Cognizant Classic at PGA National had a Monday finish, and Michael wonders what these weather issues mean for the PGA TOUR this year (1:44). The LPGA's Asian Swing continued with the HSBC Women's World Championship and a birdie-birdie-birdie walk-off winner (4:25).

Michael's been playing with 25 year old irons for his entire adult life, and finally got himself a new set this weekend (10:01). Alex's Florida vacation is in the books, and included a fun round of night golf under the lights (13:58). On our YouTube channel you can find Alex's 16 for 16 Challenge at TPC Scottsdale (via a simulator) and more coming every week (16:11). This weekend's Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill includes the usual loaded field, and always reminds Alex of his Arnie story (16:57).
