Golf TV Ratings, TGL Finals, and Masters Preview with James Colgan & Keith Stewart

James Colgan - who runs the "Hot Mic" for GOLF.com - joins first to dive into his most recent story detailing the uptick in ratings for 2025 golf telecasts, and what impact that will have both in the short and long term for the PGA TOUR and its broadcast partners.

We're then joined by Keith Stewart of "Read The Line" to recap the first night of the TGL Finals (which he's in attendance to cover), along with an early look at the Masters odds board and his picks for the Houston Open. You can find Keith's work here: https://www.readtheline.com/
