Summary

TGL Tuesdays come to a close, as this episode was a YouTube live recording following Billy Boy's crowning moment in the SoFi Dome! Andy and Brendan begin by discussing the Atlanta Drive's SoFi Cup win, rounding out the TGL season. They share some overall takeaways from the inaugural screen golf season, Andy breaks out his data-driven power rankings one last time, and PJ is reeling after yet another New York sports loss in a playoff environment. There are pleas for Billy Horschel to take his (rightful) place on the Ryder Cup team this fall, with his MVP-worthy screen golf performance showing he's ready for the main stage. In real golf (37:50, for all of you timestamp fans), Andy deems this week's Hero Indian Open "the Event of the Year" with the DP World Tour heading back to DLF. A listener writes in with some in-person insight from our favorite course, complete with an SGS legend sighting in the clubhouse! Picks are made for the Houston Open, which Tony Finau believes is the best Masters prep on Tour. The LPGA returns with the Ford Championship in Arizona and Brendan passes on some insight from the latest episode of The Mixed Bag. The Champions Tour continues its California Swing, but you'll have to chase down how to watch it across multiple platforms. Finally, the NFLPA Classic at Mayakoba is filling some airtime on Golf Channel this week, so PJ gives an in-depth breakdown of the field and some quotes from on-course reporter Jameis Winston. To wrap things up, Andy, Brendan, and PJ discuss how one would fly to India to make it out to DLF for the Indian Open this weekend.
