A Twitter beef with Justin Thomas and Brad Faxon, explained Aug 15, 2022

Show notes

In our second episode of “The Loop,” Will Zalatoris’ longtime mentor Scott Fawcett joins us to recap his insane breakthrough victory at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Fawcett had an eventful Sunday of celebrating on social media, and he came on to clear the air in regards to some of his spicier tweets. We did some celebrating, too, finally cashing in on a Zalatoris ticket after a full year of betting on him and winning nothing. Plus, picks for the BMW Championship, and a “don’t @ me” directed at a colleague’s Twitter thread on LIV and generational wealth.

The golf course that made CC Sabathia just say ‘F— it.’ Aug 08, 2022

Show notes

Our first ever episode of “The Loop” podcast has arrived and it did not disappoint, featuring an all-time great chat with New York Yankee legend CC Sabathia. In retirement, the 2009 World Series champ has become an avid golfer, so much so that for the month of September he plans to just take lessons to dial in his game. We talked plenty of golf with Sabathia, plus a little baseball, before diving into the FedEx Cup Playoffs, which have become even more confusing to understand thanks to the mess that LIV has created. Plus, we recap 20-year-old Joohyung “Tom” Kim’s insane comeback victory at the Wyndham Championship, and make picks for the FedEx St. Jude Invitational.

Introducing: The Loop Aug 05, 2022

Show notes

This is The Loop (formerly ‘Be Right’), a refreshing mix of everything you talk about on the course. Each week, hosts Christopher Powers, Alex Myers and Steve Hennessey, along with special guests from across the sports and entertainment worlds, will touch on what’s going in the game, who they’re putting money on, and whatever else comes up along the way … yes, even those god-awful Bears.

Is the Old Course losing its character? John Huggan on the week in St. Andrews Jul 18, 2022

Show notes

What a week in St. Andrews: From Tiger giving an Old Course goodbye, to boos for Ian Poulter and an awkward Phil exit, there is so much to talk about as it relates to the 150th Open Championship. There are few people better to recap an Open than our John Huggan, a longtime editor who is now our European correspondent and an expert on the Old Course. We get Huggan’s thoughts on Rory’s missed opportunity, Cameron Smith making history and whether the Old Course has been reduced to a pitch and putt … or a hybrid-and-putt.

The ‘Be Right’ boys are buzzing, too, after cashing some Cameron Smith tickets (as we hope you did, too, as Stephen Hennessey made him one of his picks on last week’s episode). Listen on for their early leans for the 3M Open.
