979: Min Woo breaks through + TGL Season 1 Review

Soly and TC are joined by Steve Williams and Evin Priest of Australian Golf Digest to discuss their book "Together We Roared", a retrospective on the time Williams spent as Tiger's caddie from 1999 to 2011. From the stories you might have heard before to some new revelations on that famous partnership, this was a fantastic chat from start to finish.

977: Carolinas Road Trip - Tree Farm, Camden Country Club, Broomsedge, Pinehurst No. 10 & No. 2

Soly and TC recently took a road trip north through the Carolinas to play several courses that have piqued our interest. We began in South Carolina with the Tree Farm, Camden Country Club (25:00), and Broomsedge (33:45) before finishing our trip in Pinehurst with The Donnybrook - an NLU Nest event - that provided us with a look at Tom Doak's Pinehurst #10 (49:30) and Pinehurst #2 (1:05:30).


976: Valspar Recap, Listener Line + Solheim Captain Angela Stanford

Neil, KVV, and Randy run the show on this Sunday night as Viktor Hovland emerges from the wilderness to win the Valspar by a shot over JT. We break down the weekend, take some listener voicemails, critique the midweek podcast list of best players without a major, and drop some personal golf updates before closing the pod with a chat with Angela Stanford - newly named Team USA captain for the 2026 Solheim Cup (1:20:35)

975: NLU Personal Golf Spotlight - Ben Hotaling

The NLU personal golf spotlight returns as Ben "Hollywood" Hotaling takes center stage. Ben takes us through his introduction to golf, his work starting his own backyard golf course - Brough Creek National - and his appreciation for golf course architecture through his NLU travels.

974: Best Players Without A Major - Class of 2025

Once considered the hottest debate in professional golf, we reheat the classic "Best Players Without A Major" conversation in two forms - an All-Time Top Ten and a Current Top Ten list (31:20).

969: Players Happy Hour (Creator Classic Reaction)

Our beautiful boy Soly Solomon is back, folks. It's a special edition Happy Hour following the Creator Classic at TPC Sawgrass, and we collected all of the perspectives: The Strapped boys from home, Tron the spectator, D.J. Pie as caddie, and Soly himself all convene to break down his big moment. Congrats to our boy for ascending into Wikipedia Yellow and getting Data Golf'd.

We close the show by sharing our picks of the week, throwing together some fun parlays, and breaking down some interesting trends in our FanDuel segment.

968: NLU Special Projects - Rickie Fowler

Ten years ago, Rickie Fowler won The Players in one of the most exciting finishes in the history of the PGA Tour. It seemed like he had arrived as the next great player. The fact that it didn't quite work out that way shouldn't lessen the magic of that Sunday, or how we feel about Rickie a decade later.

967: Russell Henley wins at Bay Hill, Ryder Cup talk, the rollback

You woke up one hour closer to a live Sunday recap, and we delivered. His first in three years, Russell Henley clutched it out at Bay Hill, while Collin Morikawa struggled to close his lead out. We talk API, Ryder Cup, Keegan ire, and a little bit of Hamsterdam.

Then it's onto the back nine as we go deep on Eamon Lynch's interview with Jay Monahan, some recent public commentary on the rollback, Larry Scott x LPGA, TGL, and more.

965: Happy Hour: 2025 API at Bay Hill

D.J., Soly, Tron and KVV were each given $200 to spend as they pleased on golf memorabilia that caught their eye - regardless of how unserious some of the items might be. We give a quick lament to the items that got away or wouldn't fit our budget constraints and then show off our purchases for all to enjoy.


964: Scavenger Hunt

963: Pro golf thrills and delights, plus Thomas Detry on the process of winning

D.J., Randy, and Neil fire up the pod as we ask ourselves to come up with three things that thrill and delight us in pro golf, and we fire up our listener voicemail line (33:30).

On tonight's Back Nine (1:01:00), we recap Joe Highsmith's win at PGA National, the significance - or lack thereof - of Jake Knapp's 59, LPGA, DP World Tour, TGL, PGA Tour HQ layoffs, and in honor of tonight's Oscars, Pro Golfers as Best Picture nominees.

We also hear from Soly who catches up with Thomas Detry (1:36:30) to relive his win in Phoenix and the challenge of closing out a PGA Tour tournament before we close out with some housekeeping (1:53:30) ahead of a busy week of #content.
