The boys were back on the road this last week when they headed down to the Chattanooga area to play some great golf courses.

In this episode, Mike is joined by Javi to talk about the trip, one in which we played Chattanooga Country Club, Sweetens Cove, McLemore Resort's new course called the Keep and finished the trip off by playing Lookout Mountain Club, which is a Seth Raynor golf course on top of the mountain, which was recently renovated/completed by Tyler Rae and Kyle Franz.

Some stories will be told, tips given, courses reviewed and talked about and much more on this travel talk episode.

Rory McIlroy kept his hot 2025 season going with a Monday morning finish in a playoff beating JJ Spaun to capture the Players Championship. McIlroy was able to win the tournament without his best stuff, which should scare the rest of the tour and set Rory up for a huge year on tour.

We dive into the championship to give our reactions to a variety of things, including another Creator Classic that had some good golf and some bad golf at TPC Sawgrass.

LIV Golf was back at it this week in Singapore and Joaquin Niemann came away with his second victory of the season. This victory prompted Phil Mickelson to make some wild comments on social media about Jaco being the number one player in the world.

The Arnold Palmer Invitational once again gave the best players in the world a stiff challenge and Russell Henley used a timely chip-in eagle on the 16th hole to surge to the victory at Bay Hill.

We will dive deep into what makes Bay Hill's setup so challenging for even the best players in the world. Tim has played the course, so he will give some inside knowledge into the setup and some holes that are specifically challenging.

Where does good golf live? That is the question that Chad Dietz was looking to answer when he started Foreward Golf.

When Chad couldn't find golf clubs that satisfied him, he started his own company. Foreward Golf irons look to fill a void in the golf club industry by giving players a variety of options that fit them.

What sets Foreward Golf apart from other companies is their process. Chad created a fitting process that players can use to find any brand of golf club that works for them. Foreward Golf is brand agnostic and they are committed to getting golfers fit into the clubs that work best for them, regardless of what brand that is.

The Foreward Golf fitting process involves 8 elements that can affect the golf club and the golf swing. After going through the fitting process, you will get a prescription into what golf clubs, shafts and grips work best for your swing.

Typically overlooked due to its lack of star power, the Mexico Open at VidantaWorld provided an amazing final round on Sunday filled with drama. Journeyman Brian Campbell bested rookie Aldrich Potgieter in a playoff for his first win on the PGA Tour.

In a true David vs. Goliath matchup, the PGA Tour's longest hitter, Potgieter, was bested by possibly its shortest hitter Campbell to win the event. Campball is only averaging about 277 yards off the tee this season while Potgieter is number one in driving distance on tour, averaging over 320 yards off the tee.

Potgieter struggled with his short game all day, and while Campbell also had his struggles, he did enough to get into a playoff. On the 2nd playoff hole, Campbell hit a tee shot into the woods and what looked to be a certain loss, but the golf gods had other plans and spit his ball back out into play and he would up making birdie to win the playoff and punch his ticket to Augusta National and the Masters, as well as a two year exemption on the PGA Tour.

This week in YouTube golf saw the Bryan Bros. break 59 at PGA National with unlimited mulligans and the Good Good Golf guys played a worst ball round.
