About this episode
KVV remains in the captain's chair for tonight's pod along with Shane Bacon and Kyle Porter as Matthieu Pavon wins at Torrey Pines with a birdie on the 72nd hole to beat Nicolai Hojgaard by a shot. We break down the finish, the international leaderboard, the lack of French golfing success, the concept of non-Sunday finishes on tour plus Tom Whitney's week and which PGA pro we would trust (and not trust) with handling nuclear weapons. We also have some fun with wondering why certain players didn't go to LIV (47:40), the abysmal pace of play this past week, the angst over sponsors exemptions at Pebble next week, the latest edition of The Match, and - with some help from Jordan Perez - we break down Nick Dunlap's decision to turn pro after his win last week (1:04:00). On the back half of the pod we talk through the rumored PIF-PGA Tour deal, our hopes for what a reunified pro golf world could look like, the Anthony Kim rumors, a few musings on buddies trips, and more.
