We have a lot to catch up on. Since our last drop, a lot has happened in the golf world. Most importantly, the Ryder Cup just concluded, and it didn’t go our way.

We open up and give Pep a big congrats and hear the story from him.We revisit the recent Pine Needles Invitational that took place a few weeks ago with none of us making the cut..again. To twist
