Emergency podcast! Andy and Brendan are back from Medinah after day two at the Presidents Cup and they get on the horn to dissect an International whitewash, a 5-0 drubbing, of the USA side in alternate shot foursomes. There’s a mix of praise for this inspiring International punch after two days with plenty of blame for the USA side that had some really poor performances from some of their most tenured players in recent years like Justin Thomas, Patrick Cantlay, and Xander Schauffele. Is Brandt Snedeker in over his head? Are we overreacting to a one-session whitewash? They go through the mix of celebration and recrimination with a full 20 points left to go this weekend.
