The 2024 Year in Review, Part 7

About this episode

A news-filled Tuesday leads to an extra long episode as there's plenty to catch up on before Part 7 of the Year in Review. Andy and Brendan discuss Jay Monahan's video statement on the state of the PGA Tour entering 2025, Blades Brown forgoing college to turn pro, and the Tour's new search for a CEO, as discussed on Golf Channel by CMO Andy Weitz. There's also some preview content of "The Showdown" ahead of Tuesday night's festivities, and Andy is still reeling following a Bears loss on Monday Night Football. The Year in Review picks up with the Memorial Tournament (44:51), as Andy recalls Scottie Scheffler's first PGA Tour win after the month of April. Jack Nicklaus was upset about the tournament's place on the schedule ahead of the U.S. Open, Jon Rahm's foot gets a hole in it, and the Cleeks finally win a LIV event this week. From there, it's a beefy U.S. Open segment with PJ, Brendan, and Andy attempting to do the Event of the Year justice. PJ shares the early-week scuttlebutt, including a look back at Brendan's attempts to cancel Putter Boy. Brendan takes the lead on the Thursday and Friday action, recapping some shot-of-the-year candidates and memories from Pinehurst. Andy researches an all-time weekend, unearthing Bryson's need for treatment during the Saturday round before going blow-by-blow on the finish between Bryson and Rory. With the Travelers up next, PJ takes the northeast's only event, another Scottie Scheffler win that was derailed by protesters storming the 18th green on Sunday afternoon. He also makes some stops for LIV Nashville content in the aftermath of Bryson's win. Andy shares details of Cam Davis's unsuccessful quest for the Presidents Cup with a win at the Rocket Mortgage before diving into Blandemonium at the U.S. Senior Open. Finally, Brendan ends the show with some quick hits from the John Deere Championship.
