Financially speaking, Scottie’s run is incredibly historic. We breakdown Scottie’s prize money already this year compared to the most in Tiger, Greg Norman, and Vijay Singh’s heydays, where Ted Scott sits on the current PGA Tour money list, and how certain course setups are favoring Scottie. We also react to Tom Kim’s jolly antics, the protesters and subsequent police reaction on Sunday, LIV Golf Nashville’s strong week, Jon Rahm yelling at drones, monoliths, the NHL’s game 7, House Of The Dragon returning, movies, Barstool Golfs and more.
