Summary

Andy and Brendan! are together in the Ponte Vedra Beach area to discuss their last couple days at TPC Sawgrass and The Players. They react to a mixed leaderboard of mules, stars, and surprises. They discuss the “outsider” they would most like to see stay on the leaderboard, and the rounds of both Rory and Spieth. They also hit on some of the truly ugly numbers posted by a handful of popular names at the very bottom of the leaderboard. On the ground insights focus on how the course played through the first round and a handful of rumors collected about the most expensive chipping lesson of all time, some cheapskates contributing to the caddie closest to the pin contest, and more.
