About this episode
We were fortunate to be joined by John Wood, long-time caddie on the PGA Tour for Hunter Mahan, Matt Kuchar, Kevin Sutherland and others. Wood is now on the broadcast team for NBC and has been on-site the past few weeks—like he is this week. He joined us from PGA National to give us some crucial insights into how the Champion course might play a little differently than people expect—and he explains the type of player who should play well this week (in addition to giving us a player to watch this week). (14:33) Wood also recaps the action from The Players with us, after Justin Thomas’ big-time victory, which was a huge win for the gambling community, including our Christopher Powers, who followed JT on Sunday. We wrap up an exciting week at TPC Sawgrass before we get into our Honda Classic picks (29:54). Be sure to check GolfDigest.com for our weekly experts picks column—where we have Pat Mayo, Rick Gehman, Brandon Gdula and an anonymous tour caddie providing picks (for free!) every week. And we’re on a roll, picking four of the past six winners. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
