Trevor Immelman, the 2008 Masters champion and lead golf analyst for CBS, joins Smylie for a discussion ranging from shared cynicism about the state of their respective golf games to the love they've both found for broadcasting after the conclusion of their playing careers. Trevor heaps praise on two international players - Min Woo Lee and Tom Kim - who will likely play in the 2024 Presidents Cup, and makes some predictions about several PGA Tour pros who could be primed for breakout seasons.

Min Woo Lee takes us behind the curtain of Adam Scott’s incredible private plane and discusses the never-ending competition with his older sister, Minjee.

Min Woo Lee still had a hole to play at the Australian PGA when he tossed on a chef's hat and wound up the raucous crowd at Royal Queensland. Lee's catchphrase is 'let him cook' and the 25-year-old served up a golfing banquet to win the PGA. The West Australian is young, fun, talented and driven. He might be happy to ham it up, but he's also talking about becoming the best player in the game. We dug into why he's exactly what Australian golf needs.  Featured: Jimmy Emanuel, golf writer, PGA Australia.

Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme discuss the reimagined "FedEx Cup Fall," and whether the structure is fair to Korn Ferry Tour graduates and other young players as they work towards full status on the PGA Tour. SK and CH also review the tee times for all 12 of the Team Europe players in the BMW PGA Championship field this weekend, and whether the pairings could indicate "pods" for the Ryder Cup at Marco Simone. Finally, Smylie speaks with fellow LSU Tiger Dr. Bhrett McCabe - a sports psychologist who works with Jon Rahm, Sam Burns, and Brian Harman - about the mindset required to succeed in a high-pressure environment like the Ryder Cup.

Smylie Kaufman is joined by Min Woo Lee, a rising star and fan favorite in the world of golf. Min discusses his iconic mock turtleneck/mustache/mullet/wraparound shades look, the "WOOO" and "LET HIM COOK" cheers that have become popular thanks to his social media following, and the parts of his game he is working on to complement his length off the tee and putting skill.

Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme break down the second day of play at the year's final major, the 151st Open Championship at Royal Liverpool. Brian Harman laps the field with a bogey-free 65 that gives him a five-shot lead heading into the weekend. Smylie gives insight on the two groups he followed today, Rory McIlroy's group and Jordan Spieth's group, and gives his report on the debacle he witnessed at 17 for Matt Fitzpatrick. Charlie has an unfortunate report about the Thursday Night Men's League result.

After a missed connecting flight on his trip back from the Travelers Championship, Smylie joins Charlie on the drive home to Birmingham to discuss all the action from TPC River Highlands, playing golf in overcorrected glasses, the best formats and traditions for Member-Guest tournaments, and a brief preview of the Rocket Mortgage Classic that quickly turns into an in-depth look at Min Woo Lee's schedule.

A masterful performance by the reigning Masters Champion in Ponte Vedra Sunday.
