Andy and Brendan are LIVE outside TPC Sawgrass at The Players Championship and ready to review a full day of scuttlebutt, course scouting, and player assessments. They begin with some notes on a Sawgrass setup looking like an attempt to push the pros around in a major-like fashion, supporting the campaign to make this tournament a “major.” Then they discuss Five Guys to Monitor, and not monitor with their worst tee times of the first two days (along with some of their favorites). The also preview what Brian Rolapp might say in his first big address at his first Players, and how few people on site seem to know precisely what is coming but it is the most-discussed subject so far. Will we get a scarcity schedule? Will we get a mule purge? Are the players re-asserting their control over the new regime and Tour structure? Then they hit on some storylines no one is talking about this week, including the LIV Singapore Champions dinner. Finally, they bring in the boys, PJ Clark and Joseph LaMagna, and offer some further notes from the ground before closing with their official picks to win.
