Episode notes

A history making weekend, brackets for March, and Jon Rahm's fitness coach on this week's podcast, hosted by Alex Lauzon and Michael Russell.

  • Scottie Scheffler rallied to become the first player to defend their title at the 50th edition of The Players, thanks to the golf gods smiling upon him and not the other three guys chasing on the 18th hole. Plus, Rory's lackluster performance raises more questions (1:41).
  • Tiger and PIF Chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan are playing nice in the Bahama's as golf's decision makers get together to decide the game's future (9:05).
  • It was St Patrick's Day this weekend, meaning Michael avoided Savannah's massive celebration, and Alex remembered the great trip to Ireland last year. Our YouTube channel includes videos from our trip to the Emerald Isle, plus new content weekly including Alex's front row trip to a recent PBR event in Austin, TX (11:32).
  • The PGA TOUR heads to the snake pit for the Valspar Championship where Xander looks to avenge his disappointing finish at Sawgrass (14:02).
  • In Tuned In, Alex is giving Justin Timberlake's new album a seriously good review, and he's enjoying the music scene at SXSW in Austin (14:51).
  • This week's guest is a fitness guru and coach to Jon Rahm, Spencer Tatum. Spencer chats with Alex from the PGA Show floor about what went into helping the former world #1 become the best with his club foot, plus what goes into finding the best fitness program for his athletes at Tatum Human Performance (18:23).
  • March Madness is here, and with that comes heartbreak for the guys after another failed season for their Bobcats, but everyone is really just rooting for Caitlin Clark (35:14).
  • NFL Free Agency got started with a bang, as Michael's Giants look to shore up the O and D lines, while Alex's Patriots jettisoned their quarterback of the past three seasons (39:47).
  • As the guys #AlwaysEndWIthFood, Alex is wondering what's better, a fried Oreo or a fried Twinkie, while Michael is enjoying 5-star cuisine at a Top Chef contestant's restaurant in New Hampshire (41:57).
