TGL as Ryder Cup prep?!, Stinky Farmers field, JT asks for TV buy-in from peers

Andy and Brendan break down Billy Boy's ESPN debut on this Wednesday episode, recording right after the Atlanta Drive's shutout TGL win over NYGC. Billy Horschel was the star of the show, interacting with fans and broadcasters throughout the SoFi Center, performing the "Dirty Bird" dance multiple times, and bringing his teammates diamond chains to wear for their postgame interviews. Andy immediately calls PJ in to answer for another poor performance from NYGC, as the addition of Cameron Young fell flat straight from the first shot of the night. Andy and Brendan debate whether the low scoring affair was an improvement on last week's match and have a laugh at Patrick Cantlay's strict strategy regarding "The Hammer" and its use. From there, golf's preeminent gambling podcast gives some One-and-Done picks for the Farmers Insurance Open, a tournament that's facing withdrawals from many of the top players in the field. Brendan brings back a slight Cutthroat Corner, wondering how a former major winner is still possibly exempt into PGA Tour events. Elsewhere on the Schedule of the Week, the DP World Tour field at the Ras Al Khaimah is littered with SGS favorites, leading to a Game Within the Game to spice things up. Finally, Andy and Brendan react to the memo sent out by Justin Thomas encouraging players to be more active in PGA Tour broadcasts as a result of the "Fan Forward" survey.
