A new LIV TV deal as Norman officially exits, Hovland in the blender, SGS Golf Advice

It's a TGL ratings Thursday on The Shotgun Start, as Andy and Brendan unpack the latest numbers coming out of ESPN headquarters after Tiger's debut. Before getting to the numbers, the episode starts with a Bears-focused Sports Minute, with Andy already upset at the potential hiring of Mike McCarthy. Once things get to golf, it's time for everybody's favorite topic - ratings! - as TGL gained viewers this week, pushing the total number over one million. Andy and Brendan debate whether the slight uptick for Tiger's debut is a positive or a negative for the league, and talk through Rory McIlroy's comments about TGL not being meant for the traditional golf fan, but for the younger, TikTok generation. Speaking of Rory, he also commented on Greg Norman's departure as LIV CEO while in Dubai. LIV announced today that former 76ers and Devils executive Scott O'Neil would be joining the league as its CEO. Andy and Brendan discuss what's next for LIV following this announcement, as well as the league's new multi-year TV deal with FOX Sports. Viktor Hovland also spoke to the press in Dubai, sharing some details about his recent struggles that Andy finds easy to relate to. Brendan shares some leaderboard updates on events across the world, with an American amateur leading the way on the DP World Tour event through day one. The TikTok generation comes up again later on, as Andy and Brendan are giddy to share that Michael Block and Joel Dahmen, among others, have signed to be the newest GoodGood pros for 2025. This episode ends with a combination of Golf Advice emails and a Tosti Tale from the Sony Open.
