Dustin Johnson shoots 67 on Sunday to win the Travelers Championship at -19.

Dustin Johnson shoots 67 on Sunday to win the Travelers Championship at -19. The Birdies & Bourbon team recap the players and highlights from the tournament.

Dustin had a great couple of weeks. He started slow at Colonial, but picked up speed in Hilton Head last week and shot great over the 4 rounds this week.

Brendon Todd played a great first 3 rounds but could not hold on Sunday to close out the tournament.

Bryson is still playing strong. When will he have his first win since the break? Doc Redman continues to play strong. We think we'll see a win or a Top 5 from him soon.

Phil - what can we say about Phil. He played great Thursday and Friday. Saturday and Sunday were a disappointment. Since turning 50 we think we're seeing quite the mid-life crisis from Phil.

The Speakeasy Bourbon Club Special Episode: Basil Hayden's 10 Year Rye Tasting Notes and Review.

The Speakeasy Bourbon Club Special Episode: Basil Hayden's 10 Year Rye Tasting Notes and Review.

Basil Hayden's 10 Year Rye is an easy invitation into the Rye whiskies. Its bottled at 80 proof and fairly underwhelming to the nose. I’m not getting that ethanol punch so you can really nose this one pretty deep. What you will get is a corny sweetness and rye bread notes. Theres a touch of oak and little char to round out the nose. You can tell this is going to be an easy drinker at first smell. The taste gives a watery mouth feel but a buttery sweetness does come through at the end. At $60 theres not much value here for me but as previously mentioned this is an easy introduction to Rye family.  Cheers

The Speakeasy Bourbon Club Special Episode: Old Forester 1920 Prohibition Style Whisky Review.

Old Forester 1920, a throwback to the Prohibition era. This 115 proof bourbon is a palate pleaser. On the nose its got a bit of heat but quickly leads you to cherry, brown sugar and vanilla notes. After first taste, it provides a malty stout even mouth coat. The dark cherry and brown sugar become more pronounced and blend together nicely. The finish provides a peppery, ice cream sandwich finish. At $60 a bottle it's a bit on the higher end, related to value, but worth a try if its never held a spot on your bar. Cheers

The Birdies & Bourbon team chat DraftKings lineups for Travelers Championship.

Rory's price has been dropping. Are you playing him this week?

Bubba?? 3 time winner. This is a course that has made Bubba, Bubba. How do you not play him?

SungJae. RBC has historically been a bad spot for him. Are you buying the dip?

Sergio or Neimann? Both have been playing lights out. Who do you trust more this week?

Koepka. We like his play last week. Can he continue?

Webb - can he go back to back?

JT - Has a couple of Top 10's, we like the way he is playing. Not great course history here, but can you pass him up?

Ancer: 100% Greens in regulation on Sunday. The man is on fire. Yes, we're playing him.

Gonna be a packed field again this week. We're stoked for the tournament.

The Birdies & Bourbon team recap RBC Heritage at Harbour Town Golf Links on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.

The Birdies & Bourbon team recap RBC Heritage at Harbour Town Golf Links on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.

Webb Simpson is a Top 5 Player in the World. We can't wait to see how he does in the majors this year. Hatton is lights out. He doesn't play much on the tour comparatively, but wow when he does watch out. Ancer could have easily shot -24 or so for the tournament. The putter was not hot yesterday. What a player....

Is Rory having home front troubles? Cal thinks that being locked up during quarantine has been created a crisis for him.

JT had a strong showing before taking dad fishing in Hilton Head.

Bryson had a great week. It's BS that the long hitters won't perform at these types of tracks.  Brooks was killer yesterday. Do you trust it? Are you taking Bryson or Brooks at Travelers?

DJ, is he back? He seemed to have more drive or motivation, but are you counting him in?

Viktor had some solid days. Spieth is still on the yoyo path and scares Dan.

We had a blast chatting RBC Heritage. We hope you enjoy the listen.
