    Mar 26 2026

    The Draw hosts Nathan and Brian recap the major pro golf storylines. Hannah Green dominated with three wins this month, including back-to-back victories in Australia on the Ladies European Tour.

    At the Fortinent Founders Cup on the LPGA Tour, the hosts cover Hyo Joo Kim's wire-to-wire win and her eighth title as well as Nelly Korda's rally and eventual bogey on hole 17. Nathan and Brian go on to praise the LPGA Tour for its improved NBC/Golf Channel television coverage.

    On the PGA Tour, Matt Fitzpatrick won the Valspar Championship after last week’s Players near-miss, with discussion of Sungjae Im’s rust and Fitzpatrick raising pace-of-play concerns. In China, Jordan Gumberg won the Hainan Classic for his second DP World Tour title

  • The Draw: 2026 Women's Australian Open and The Players Championship
    Mar 19 2026

    In this episode of The Draw, hosts Nathan and Brian dive into how Hannah Green gave Aussies something to cheer for when she won the Women’s Australian Open on the Ladies European Tour, becoming the first Australian woman - since Karrie Webb - to win the event since 2014. To add to the excitement, Aussie Cassie Porter shot a Sunday course record to finish T2.

    The hosts then cover the Players Championship, where Cameron Young beat Matthew Fitzpatrick after Ludvig Åberg’s back-nine water penalties. It was hard to miss Young's huge drive on 18 to help seal the deal. A fun storyline coming out of TPC Sawgrass was YouTube-taught pro Sudarshan Yellamaraju posting a T5 finish and winning $925,000 before announcing his withdrawal from the Valspar Championship.

    Previews this week include the LPGA's Fortinet Founders Cup, the DP World Tour's Hainan Classic and the PGA Tour's Valspar Championship.

    The hosts also discuss commissioner Jay Monahan’s proposed PGA Tour changes, including a shorter season and more match play.

  • The Draw: Is Akshay Bhatia the King of Playoffs or Does the Win Not Count Thanks to His Putter?
    Mar 12 2026

    In this episode of The Draw, hosts Nathan and Brian recap the busiest week in golf so far and preview some "major" events.

    On the DP World Tour, Dan Bradbury won the 2026 Joburg Open for his third career win and second at the event, moving him up the Race to Dubai standings. At the Blue Bay LPGA in China, Mi Hyang Lee earned her first win since 2017, ending a 9-year drought.

    On the PGA Tour, Ricky Castillo won the Puerto Rico Open for his first title after nearly skipping the event, while 18-year-old Blades Brown led late but made a triple and finished third; at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, Akshay Bhatia beat Daniel Berger in a playoff that is now considered controversial due to his broomstick putter.

    The hosts also preview the Players Championship while discussing Rory and Scheffler storylines. They go one to celebrate a TGL Tom Kim hole-in-one comeback, and end by announcing Europe named Luke Donald their Ryder Cup captain again while the U.S. captain remains undecided.
