Andy and Brendan have touched down in Los Angeles and are ready to go at the Draddy House for this week’s U.S. Open. But first, they settle up on the weekend that was, beginning with the fantastic finish to the Canadian Open. They praise the PGA Tour product that’s been delivering all year, even at these non-designated events. They have less praise for the bureaucratic arm that just completed the merger deal and is now communicating a different tune than we’d heard all the last year. There are a couple notes from the other side of moat about a somber scene, and some reaction to the many details in the NYT report about the various meetings that got the deal done. They also have some fun with the Euro Tour winner’s name and wonder what his true calling should have been. The episode closes with some early LACC and US Open catnip before the week goes full bore on that championship.

The Shotgun Start with Andy Johnson and Brendan Porath of Fried Egg Golf is a podcast waiting for you early in the morning that quickly blasts through a variety of topics (usually) related to golf and (ideally) relevant to the day. It covers news from the pro tours around the world, amusing and important topics from the amateur game the rest of us play, and some irreverent stuff in between. There will be short interviews, previews, reviews, and dives into the archives. It provides what you need to know on golf through a rapid and fun catch-up discussion.
