The Florida Swing argument, TGL Fatigue, and AI (w)rec(k)s on Sawgrass

To the surprise of no one, what was supposed to be a quick, 40-minute Wednesday episode ended up pushing an hour. Andy and Brendan are fired up after a week at The Players and are ready to watch a strong field at the Valspar Championship to round out the Florida Swing. This episode starts with some TGL notes after barely watching the semi-finals, leading to agreement that the indoor league needs to wrap before The Players takes place in 2026. Speaking of The Players, Andy recalls J.J. Spaun's "Blockie" moment on the 17th hole on Monday, asking Rory where his ball was. This leads to today's Masters Fact of the Day, which then ends up in a discussion about who would play Michael Block in the Disney movie about the 2023 PGA Championship at Oak Hill. For the last bit of Players cleanup, Andy shares some AI findings that PGA Tour Championship Management could have used to set up TPC Sawgrass last week. On the outdoor golf front this weel, Brendan declares he's back "in" on the Florida Swing after some exciting events to this point and a Valspar field that includes 24 of the top 50 players in the world. The DP World Tour is in Singapore and Big Shot Bob MacIntyre is in the field, which has Andy and Brendan wondering what direction he flew to get there from Jacksonville. PJ goes down the tee sheet for the Hoag Classic's Pro-Am on Sunday, filled with NFL stars and athletes of all levels - an elite test of Remembering Some Guys. In news, the LIV Singapore ratings were quite poor, but Peacock and Golf Channel drew a big number for the Monday playoff finish at The Players. Finally, Andy unveils the latest data-driven TGL Power Rankings heading into next week's final series between NYGC and the Atlanta Drive.
