## Resource

Sammy and Lynchy kick off the show with a quick check-in on their own golf games after another busy week. At (4:28), the guys deep dive into the big news out of LIV Golf, with confirmation that OWGR points will not be awarded ahead of the opening tournament in Riyadh.At (17:37), they unpack some eyebrow-raising comments from Brandel Chamblee, who believes The Players Championship should be recognised as golf’s fifth major.At (21:22), it’s Around the Grounds, starting with an incredible win on debut by Australia’s own Elvis Smylie on LIV Golf, holding off Jon Rahm down the stretch.At (31:57), the lads head back home to break down Declan O’Donovan’s brilliant victory at the Webex Players Series in Sydney.At (35:10), they wrap a massive weekend of golf across the DP World Tour and PGA Tour, before touching on crowd behaviour at the Waste Management Phoenix Open at (44:30).At (46:40), The Scramble is back, with Sammy putting Lynchy on the spot — should golf have a fifth major? All thanks to Callaway.
