About this episode

The episode discusses the new captain of the US Ryder Cup team, Jim Furyk, and various current events in golf.

Six months after losing the Ryder Cup in front of an, ahem, partisan home support at Bethpage, Team USA has a new captain. Except he’s not new at all. Jim Furyk, the man who presided over the 17.5-10.5 pounding in Paris, is back in the saddle. Which begs the question: what are they thinking?! Michael and Lewis break down the appointment a busy episode which also includes reaction to the scandalous ticket prices for next year’s match at Adare Manoe, thoughts on the Open’s return to Royal Lytham, Nelly Korda’s third major victory, the LIV / PIF omnishambles, Matt Fitz-hat-trick, and Justin Rose signing with McLaren Golf.
