We've got a lot to cover on this week's recap pod as Lilia Vu wins in a playoff at the LPGA Chevron Championship while, on the PGA Tour, Nick Hardy and Davis Riley shoot 30 under to win the Zurich in New Orleans. 
Special thanks to our guest appearances on our Chevron coverage by LPGA pro and current Golf Channel commentator Karen Stupples and stats aficionado Justin Ray for a complete look at the first impressions of the Chevron in Houston as well as Vu's family background, Angel Yin missing out on her first major, Nelly Korda's week, and more.
We also take stock of the role of the Zurich team event on the PGA Tour and some other format possibilities, the atmosphere at this week's LIV event in Australia, plus the return of This Week in James Hahn Tweets.

This week on the recap pod we open with a recap of the better-than-expected-Zurich Classic where Rory and Shane Lowry win in a playoff. Then we call in KVV for a segment we've been workshopping all week in conjunction with the NFL draft: comparing pro golfers and pro quarterbacks and vice versa (24:00).
From there we pivot to LIV Adelaide (54:00) as well as the LPGA at Wilshire, Rory's potential return to the PGA Tour policy board, tour players receiving equity, and more.
