A Ryder Cup captaincy stunner in Keegan, In-Out-Alt for Barbasol, and Scottish scuttlebutt

Andy and Brendan are all over the place for this Wednesday episode, which begins with some intel from the ground at the Scottish Open, where a frugal one was casing the free coffee cart on the driving range at the Renaissance Club. Then they get to the massive, surprising news of the week that Keegan Bradley will be the 2025 Ryder Cup captain at Bethpage. They react to the apparent haphazard PGA process that landed with Keegan, the fact that Zatch made the call to him, and the genuine love Bradley clearly displays for this event. Will it be a good pick? They also discuss Xander Schauffele’s quotes that Keegan needs to cut down on the mandatory dinners. They eventual get to the schedule for the week, which starts with an In-Out-Alternate for the newly-named Kentucky event that will remain the Barbasol here. Then they get to the Scottish Open, Rory’s return, and two majors on the Senior and LPGA tours. They close it with news of Joost Luiten getting banned from Olympics golf again.
