JT returns to the winner's circle, windy finish at Puntacana, and Brendan sends in Disney tales
With Brendan still waiting on lines at Orlando theme parks, Andy calls in Shane Bacon from the bullpen for this Monday morning recording. To start, the two discuss Justin Thomas's playoff win over Andrew Novak at the RBC Heritage, his first win since the 2022 PGA Championship. Andy and Shane unpack an almost wire-to-wire win for JT and look at his improved putting and elite iron play that has bounced back to almost peak form. Shane shares some optimism about the rest of 2025 for JT, while Andy takes away that sometimes playing good golf is the most boring thing a player could do. The two debate where JT stands in a historical context with 16 PGA Tour wins to his name, comparing him to players such as Jordan Spieth and Zach Johnson. From there, things go a bit off the rails as Andy shares some Disney reports from Brendan's trip ongoing trip to Florida before PJ provides an update on where the "ins" finished at Puntacana. Shane and Andy talk through Joel Dahmen's bogey-bogey-bogey finish to his final round, allowing Garrick Higgo to win his second career PGA Tour event. Andy highlights Neal Shipley's playoff win on the Korn Ferry Tour and Ingrid Lindblad's first LPGA win before wrapping this episode up with some news. Will Scott Stallings beat Andy's marathon time? Stay tuned to find out!
