About this episode

The episode discusses Matt Fitzpatrick's victory at the Zurich Classic with his brother, Nelly Korda's major win, and the cancellation of LIV Golf events.

Matt Fitzpatrick stayed hot and won again this week in Louisiana at the Zurich Classic. This time though, he had a partner, his brother Alex. The Fitzpatrick's almost blew a big lead, but managed to make a birdie on 18 for a one-stroke victory. We dive into what this means for Alex and how long can Matt stay hot for this year. Nelly Korda won her 3rd major this week in Houston, winning the Chevron by multiple shots. We discuss distance in the women's game and if they are chasing it like in mens professional golf. LIV Louisiana is apparently shutting down after having money issues. LIV Golf will not have an event for a month and half at the beginning of the summer. We again talk about the end of LIV and what this means for the PGA Tour. McLaren Golf launches its new clubs this week and they have a new lead player as a sponsor - Justin Rose. We talk about what to expect as McLaren speeds into golf. Subscribe to the Break80 Podcast on Apple, Spotify and YouTube for weekly golf content. Learn more about your ad choices.
