The Year in Review returns after a week off and things are still moving at a snail's pace. Per usual, Andy has real concerns about finishing this eighth installment up before Christmas or even the start of 2026, but the group soldiers on despite some wanting to "pull a Notre Dame." This episode begins with a bevy of golf news, far too much for the second week in December. Andy, Brendan, KVV, and PJ discuss a potential LIV departure by Brooks Koepka, TGL's new trading card deal, and the 10th anniversary of Fried Egg Golf. Brendan repeatedly attempts to transition to the Year in Review, but Andy holds him up with a burning desire to unpack Philip Rivers signing with the Indianapolis Colts. Finally, as promised, the Arnold Palmer Invitational recap gets underway! Brendan recalls NBC missing the shot that won the tournament, a chip by Russell Henley on the 16th hole to take the lead over Collin Morikawa, as well as Morikawa's ensuing media controversy. THE PLAYERS is next up on the schedule, complete with Tosti Tales, a Will Zalatoris sighting, J.J. Spaun's rise toward the U.S. Open, and another Rory win. Andy, Brendan, and PJ all contribute with on-site memories from a week in the swamp resulting in a segment that goes so long that the Valspar is pushed to Friday's episode. Will we get to the Masters this week? Stay tuned to find out!
