Great review of the RC weekend guys. Kudos to K Bradley and team USA for truly competing to the end, even though team Europe was able hold on.
Good stuff Rex & Lav. Has a golf ran and very novice player I enjoy the information and interviews you guys do about Pro Golf. One must tip their hat to the European team. The absolute garbage behavior by fan on site was super disappointing. I also think Rex is 100% correct about the PGA of American desire to make PGA Golf tournaments fans more mainstream sports fans. Be careful what you ask for.
A very informative podcast and much more akin to what I like in one. Nice! 👍
