Andy and Brendan (joined by KVV, Joseph, and PJ) are bouncing after another incredible Masters finish that had Rory McIlroy winning another green jacket. They debrief on a full day chasing a manic leaderboard with Rory, Cameron Young, Justin Rose, Scottie Scheffler, and more throwing their hat in the ring to win on a firm Augusta National setup. They discuss Rory’s legacy now with six majors, his claim to the best European golfer of all time, and what comes next on the resume building. They also discuss all the challengers and dispense with the preposterous notion that Augusta went soft with the setup. LIV Golf’s week is given a grade, with some hollering about Sergio Garcia’s conduct and the warning he received from a green jacket. They discuss the narrative that the Masters lost some of its identity with the merch haul movement and some of the hijinks around the Par 3 contest. Lastly, they finish with some big picture thoughts on the majors the rest of the year and a note of thanks for listening.
