Zozo returns to Japan, Aussies get creative, and Rickieville

This Wednesday episode is a quick whip through the schedule for the week, starting with the Zozo Championship on the PGA Tour. Andy laments the no-cut status and the notion that the PGA Tour is sending its worst kind of product to a market that every player should play in during the season. During this discussion, the new Australia event for pros and amateurs is praised, while a larger concern about that historic golf market being somewhat left behind on the greatest pro stages is raised. Also, is Rickie the player with the most to gain from these sleepy fall events, or is it \u201cEuropean Rickie\u201d? The first leg of the Schwab Cup is noted, with defending champ Phil Mickelson in the field. Some \u201cnotables\u201d from both KFT and LPGA q-schools are discussed as well, including Dr. Jack\u2019s boy. They close with news on one college player signing with an agency for NIL matters before a technical issue forces an abrupt ending.
