About this episode

Former PGA Champions John Mahaffey & Shaun Micheel plus my Thursday Night Tailgate Co-Host Bob Lazzari and Travelers Championship Tournament Director Nathan Grube join me.

John Mahaffey shares his thoughts on The Open Championship and his experiences playing in 4 of them. We also hear about the advice Lee Trevino gave him that improved his short game and driving accuracy. I get John's thoughts on LIV Golf, his amazing comeback from 7 strokes down with 14 holes to play to win the 1978 PGA Championship, and how he's giving back to the game.

Shaun Micheel weighs in with his thoughts on the Open Championship and his experience playing in the 2005 Open at St. Andrews. We also go back to 1998 when Shaun won the Singapore Open, an important tournament on the Asian Tour whose winners include major champions like Adam Scott, Angel Cabrera, and Sergio Garcia plus Matt Kuchar.

Bob and Nathan talk about the storied history of The Travelers Championship going back to the days when it was the Sammy Davis Jr. Greater Hartford Open. We also hear about the course at TPC River Highlands, the drama and heartbreak that took place this year on the 72nd hole this year, plus the impact that LIV Golf will have on the tournament field going forward.
