As the PGA Championship, the year's second major, goes to Valhalla, Golf Digest Staff Writer Christopher Powers drops into the pod to preview the action. How can Scottie Scheffler, Brooks Koepka or Rory McIlroy get it done this week? Should Xander Schauffele and Jon Rahm be considered? Who are the long shots? What will the Michael Block story be this year?

Carlee Shoemaker grew up in Kentucky and played college golf at the University of the Cumberlands and Eastern Kentucky. As her competitive golf career was nearing its end and her love of golf was fading, she found a fresh way to connect with the game via content creation. She's since built a following on TikTok and Instagram, gotten hired as a freelancer by Golf Channel and has aspirations to inspire golfers, both young and old.

The people's caddie, Geno Bonnalie, joins the pod to discuss his original letter/email to Joel Dahmen, how the two have seen their popularity grow since the release of Netflix's "Full Swing" and how he balances life on the road with being a Dad and a husband back in Idaho. Bonnalie also talks about his famous Winged Foot hotel video, being the mascot in college and his role as one of the five caddie "Ball Masters" for SAXX Underwear.

The Athletic's Gabby Herzig joins the podcast to discuss the potential history that Scottie Scheffler and Nelly Korda are both chasing. What does Scottie's second Masters title say about his place in the game (and the talent level currently behind him)? Is this just the start for Nelly's dominance? Are superstar personalities needed to drive golf forward?

Entrepreneur, investor and podcast host Joe Pompliano joins the pod to talk about the sports business elements of The Masters that make it such a powerful player in the industry. Joe explains why Augusta National can keep charging low prices for food, how The Masters is making upscale hospitality a focal point and why the entire Masters brand is still building for the future. Plus, Joe gives his take on how a united golf world between the PGA TOUR and LIV Golf would look from a business standpoint.

As 89 players gear up for the 2024 Masters, Jeff ranks the entire field 1 through 89, from Scottie Scheffler to the amateurs and legendary past champions at Augusta National. Who are the sleepers? Who is trending? Who can actually win a green jacket?

Actor and avid golfer Jerry Ferrara (Entourage, Power) joins the podcast to talk about some legendary Entourage golf scenes, including Tom Brady's famous cameo (and why that episode was actually meant to include Peyton and Eli Manning, not Brady and Mark Wahlberg). Ferrara also recalls late nights on the golf simulator with Kevin Dillon (Johnny Drama), a crazy Kevin Connolly (Eric Murphy) shot in front of Wayne Gretzky and the time Phil Mickelson gave him a putt. Ferrara, a New York City native, also explains why the New York fans are going to put on a show at the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black and how a Knicks-Team USA double would send NYC into a frenzy.

Then (11:34), Jeff welcomes in Sportico's Jacob Feldman and CBS Sports' Patrick McDonald for two different takes on Season 2 of Netflix's "Full Swing" docuseries. Jacob, a sports business reporter, examines the series as a more casual fan, while Patrick takes a look at the series from a hardcore golf perspective. The crew discusses everything from Tom Kim getting lost at The Masters to Rory McIlroy unveiling swing secrets to Keegan Bradley experiencing Ryder Cup heartbreak.

What if the top college golf programs had their best alumni (and current players) battle it out in a March Madness-style bracket? That's the question we asked, as Myan Patel (PGA TOUR LIVE/SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio) and Roberto Arguello (PGA TOUR LIVE/The Action Network) join the show to pick hypothetical winners. Can Scottie Scheffler and Jordan Spieth lead Texas to a title? Can Max Homa and Collin Morikawa deliver for Cal?
