DJ Pie 1:00
Greetings, gentlemen. I'm really excited for Philly this week. I think the Philly fans are going to be extra hostile with their Sixers and their Flyers having very unceremoniously exited the premises and the Phillies stink.
Sully 1:17
If we learn anything, they're just going to take it out on Matt. DJ pie is here as well. Hello, DJ.
TC 1:24
Hey, Sully. Thanks for having me on your program. Looking forward to the PGA championship, man. CC. It's going to be a great week in Philly. I'm ready. It is. Hopefully your fellow birds fans are going to lift you up on their shoulders and carry you to a great week.
DJ Pie 1:38
Fly Eagles fly.
Sully 1:39
We got a lot to talk about. Today's show is, of course, brought to you by our friends at Titleist and the new GTS drivers. We've seen them all over tour since they launched in late March. Over 50 PGA Tour players have already put a GTS 2, GTS 3, or GTS 4 driver in the bag. And starting this week... You'll be able to get yourself dialed with GTS driver fittings kicking off Wednesday, May 13th. I've been very jealous. You guys already have them in your hands, and my fitting's been rescheduled. I haven't gotten it on the books yet. It's not great on my end. I'm very, very envious.
DJ Pie 2:13
Party doctor's getting fit tomorrow morning. Jumping the gun a little bit. He's been texting me and Poosh all day.
Sully 2:20
How about that? So you can go to Titleist.com to find a fitting near you.

What should we know about the Aronimink course?

Sully 2:24
And stay tuned to Titleist social channels for more GTS updates as well. We've got a ton of great pictures, a ton of great content around this one. As soon as you lay eyes upon this thing, you're going to want to get a fitting yourself. Titleist.com, find a fitting near you. Deej, what are we getting into today?
TC 2:38
We're going to talk about the contenders, man. We're going to talk about the guys who are going to be vying for the Wanamaker trophy this week up at Aronamake. I feel like, you know, in some of the previews, we've dashed past people a little too quickly. So we're going to double click on just where's everybody at? What's the state of play for some of these big names? Maybe give another couple additional names to keep an eye on. But, Solly, first, I think we're going to go through the mink, Aronamake Country Club.
Sully 3:04
we are i'm going to give a little crash course on aeronamic assuming you haven't od'd uh on aeronamic content leading into this week if you're just now getting caught up this is the first major championship at aeronamic since who won in 1962 does anyone remember gary player i think i said aeronamic country club by the way i'd like to issue an immediate man aeronamic golf club First mea culpa of many. That's a record correction on this preview episode. Donald Ross golf course that opened in 1928. Gil Hance, of course, performed a restoration of the club in 2017. I got a lot of great info from Jeff Shackelford's newsletter here on the golf course. I didn't know this prior to reading this, though. The mink was scheduled to host the 1993 PGA.
Sully 3:47
but withdrew because a seven-year waiting list rendered the club unable to meet non-discriminatory requirements. It had no minority members. In 1990, they had to withdraw and were going to be unable to host the 1993 PGA Championship.
DJ Pie 4:05
That was in the wake of the Shoal Creek stuff.
Sully 4:08
That was in the wake of the Shoal Creek stuff. But Crooked Stick was the next one up after that one, and it was in the same boat and whatnot. So interesting. I knew absolutely none of that. But also, side note, I learned the 1994 PGA was scheduled to be at Oak Tree in Oklahoma, but it moved to Southern Hills because of the financial collapse of Landmark Land Co., That happened relatively short.
