The Preferred Lies Super Bowl, Solheim Cup ratings tank, & FBF on the Best PCup Ever
This Friday whiparound episode covers the hottest topics in golf: AI announcers "coming to fruition," PGA Tour Comms tweets, and the latest in RATINGS! after last weekend's Solheim Cup. Andy and Brendan first clean up some more 2028 exemption chatter from Wednesday's show, with Andy learning that the players - perhaps including Lucas Glover, who stands to benefit from the Career Milestone exemption - pushed for these categories to exist on the new-look PGA Tour. Brendan then dubs this week's event in Asheville as "the Super Bowl of Preferred Lies" after the Tour decided that all four days would be played ball-in-hand on Thursday morning. The two also discuss the totality of Duff Foreman's broadcast debut and some quotes from his creator (or father?) that ran in a Golf.com article this week. The two then bring in Kevin Van Valkenburg for a discussion about declining Solheim Cup ratings. Andy calls the disappointing numbers a "fire alarm," and the three debate whether the ratings are even in a place to improve moving forward. KVV then rounds out a year of B. Draddy Presidents Cup Flashbacks with the granddaddy of them all: a look back at the 2003 tie, captained by Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player! We will be back on Monday morning ahead of our live show at SPACE in Evanston as we head to the Windy City for the 2026 Presidents Cup.
New to the Pro Shop, our Chicago Collection has arrived. We’ve given our SGS logo a Chicago twist, referencing the light blue and red colors on the Chicago flag. We’ve got that available on hats, koozies and tees. Check it all out at proshop.thefriedegg.com OR if you’re coming to our live show in Chicago on Sept. 21st, we’ll have a pop up shop there with the whole collection available!
The official Presidents Cup uniforms are available to shop now at B. Draddy, alongside their Presidents Cup t-shirt collection! If you'd like to carry a piece of the week home with you, visit bdraddy.com and use promo code SGS30 for 30% off your order.
