Golf News Roundup + Sony Open Best Bets, One & Done Leans (1/13)

We’ve had a month’s worth of golf news occur over the past week, that’s where we start this week’s episode. The PGA of America announced on Sunday that the 2022 PGA Championship will be moved away from Trump Bedminster golf course in New Jersey. Following up from there, the R&A issued a statement saying Trump Turnberry was off The Open rotation for the foreseeable future. We also discuss Justin Thomas and his hot mic incident at the Sentry Tournament of Champions, is it time the PGA Tour re-thinks its policies on fines and suspensions? We end the news round-up with a discussion about Mike Whan leaving the LPGA and where he could go as well as chatting about major moves for WGC-Mexico and the possibility Augusta National could have patrons on the grounds in April. After the break we’re dishing out our best bets for the Sony Open plus our One and Done leans for Waialeale.
