Andy and Brendan have spent the last two days on the ground at Los Angeles Country Club scouting and gathering all manner of amusing intel to deliver their traditional Wednesday major championship “preview.” They begin with a few new nicknames and some scuttlebut about two pros with very different tipping strategies for the local caddies. Then they get into a lengthy discussion about the course, some early impressions, some player gripes (Rahm-centric), and how the USGA could turn the screws if scores start to get real low. They go through their favorite tee times as is custom before a major, including the “worst tee time” debate. They close with a updates on the merger and news of a Jay Monahan health issue.
