Duck taped Spieth, Bergers triumph, and celebrating a successful return

The PGA Tour made a strong return this weekend and Andy and Brendan are back to recap a real, actual golf tournament. They offer their initial reactions from Colonial, but not without some laments about what\u2019s happened to Perry Maxwell\u2019s design and the CT machine operator being deemed inessential for tourney ops. Jordan Spieth\u2019s eventful week is also dealt with at the top, as the two debate if any positive extrapolating can be done from his work at a favorite venue of his. Has anyone (sans Tiger) had to slump through it under a more intense microscope than Spieth? Daniel Berger\u2019s playoff victory over Collin Morikawa is also given a full account, including Berger\u2019s emotion after what was clearly a triumphant moment following some low years. Morikawa\u2019s putting is put in the crosshairs and his future is debated against another young star and current FEC No. 1. Bryson\u2019s close call is praised, as is his prodigious protein shake intake and his ability all week to bring an outside curiosity to the event from non-golf watchers. The lack of fans is celebrated for what it brought to the event, as opposed to took away, and the same positive remarks are made about the coverage. The episode ends with some of the bigger disappointments and frustrations from an overall successful week, as well as a few thoughts on a model Korn Ferry Tour field at Sawgrass.
