Golfweek

Taurus shortest course, Port Royale and Bermuda still a beast by Annam Shupak.

Golf Week.

If Augusta National is the PGA's Taurus version of Daytona International Speedway, the Port Royale golf course in Southampton, Bermuda is golf's answer to Bristol Motor Speedway.

Bristol NASCAR short track in Tennessee measures just 0.53 miles around its concrete oval.

Yeah, the big hats at WM.

He was visiting a park, and this story ended up on Golf Week.

Because he then got really re-energized by his Pokemon love and remembered as a kid that he used to collect all his cards.

So he called his parents and he said, mom and dad, I want to get my cards.

From Circling Raven Golf Course in northern Idaho, the director of golf, Don Rasmussen, will be joining us.

Golf Week recently ranked the top casino golf courses in the nation, in the country, and Circling Raven was in the top ten on that list, and Don will be here to shed some light on that for us today.

That should be fun later in the show.

Our first guest is standing by and ready to go on the TD Green guest line.

Our next guest is standing by, ready to go, on the TD Green guest line.

He's coming to us from Worley, Idaho, and the Circling Raven Golf Club, which recently opened.

was ranked 10th in the nation as far as the top 10 casino golf courses from Golf Week.

Circling Raven is owned and operated by the Coeur d'Alene tribe.

This is us.

Uh, I, I, I did some research, and according to an article in Golf Week way back in 2014, there were 70 applicants for the head coaching job at Memphis.

[laughs] Okay.

Deep dive.

Don't know if that's true, but I'm pretty sure-

Yeah

... you know, Golf Week gets it right m- uh, you know, most of the time I would say.

So, how did they pick you? How did you get...

You know, they- they've been doing everything in their power to put a stop to LIV or, or make it difficult for any player that's gone there.

And according to a report in Golf Week, the DP World Tour appears to be throwing a lifeline to some of these LIV golfers looking to get out of their contracts.

So the deadline is set for October 25th for LIV golfers to decide whether they're in or out.

Now, I've seen some reports this week they may extend that a week or so.

17 teams, something like that.

Our guy Cameron Jordan at Golf Week with the great reporting.

It just sounds awful, like most of the field.

But imagine if you're – and I brought this up to Berko on our podcast this morning.

It is a problem.

I was just reading a story on Golf Week by our colleague Adam Schupak, who did point out there is an ebb and flow to this.

There was a time a decade or so ago when the United States was actually stronger in foursomes play than they were in four-ball play.

That's clearly not the case now.
