Matt Cook and Buttsy bring you another engaging episode, starting with Buttsy's observations in The Tee Off Report. They dive into a recap of the ZOZO Championship, followed by a detailed leaderboard rundown. The Genesis Championship is also recapped, with special attention given to a locker room incident involving Tom Kim. The Swannies Style Segment adds flair to the discussion. The episode then shifts to the PGA Tour's proposed changes for 2026 by the Player Advisory Council. There's an in-depth look at the potential future of LIV Golf and Greg Norman's expiring contract. The conversation rounds out with insights into TGL's potential impact on the golf world before closing remarks.

Key Points

  • Brent Grant discusses the immense pressure and frustration that comes with narrowly missing putts and losing tournaments, highlighting the emotional rollercoaster of professional golf.
  • The PGA Tour's proposed changes to shrink the field sizes and eliminate Monday qualifiers are met with skepticism and criticism, with concerns about limiting opportunities for emerging talents and reducing the overall excitement of the sport.
  • The TGL's innovative approach of using massive simulators and real greens for head-to-head team matches is seen as a potential game-changer in golf entertainment, offering a unique viewing experience that could attract new fans.
