A funny story from Yellowstone sets the stage for a discussion on the worst golf gifts. Fans chime in, and Brent Grant joins in after some technical hiccups. They delve into LIV Golf fandom, Tiger Woods' TGL readiness, and Brent's take on the Hero World Challenge. Brent shares his Q School experience, and the episode explores the rise of alternative golf content and local league talent.

Key Points

Tony Finau was in negotiations for the 14th franchise of LIV Golf, sparking significant speculation about his potential move from the PGA Tour, but those claims are denied by Tony.
Pat Perez's future with LIV Golf is uncertain as his team, the 4 Aces, has signed Thomas Pieters, and Perez is currently the only team member without a contract for next season.
Nico Echavarria, who has been on a remarkable run, is reportedly set to join LIV Golf, which has raised questions about the impact of such a move on his career trajectory.
