What an unforgettable day of golf-watching at The Open and Andy and Brendan are giddy to talk about a day that sorted the contenders and pretenders as we head to the final round of men’s major championship golf. They discuss the absolutely brutal conditions at Royal Troon that punished the final groups coming in and left the Baton Boy, the Town Crier himself, Billy Horschel sitting in the solo 54-hole lead. They discuss Scottie Scheffler’s maddening day, Shane Lowry’s pouty way to the finish, and the full slate of contenders and pretenders for Sunday. There’s a course check-in on another day that is extracting all the traits that should be needed to win a major before they toss in a few more Games Within The Game for the final day.
