The Hot Take Podcast 2.0

Author: GOLF.com March 23, 2017 Duration: 38:04
It's that special time of year where the takes are the hottest. Here on the GOLF.com Podcast, we've assembled some of the hottest takes in the sport, from some of the most provocative voices in golf's online arena. This is the second annual Hot Take Podcast. Included are the voices of Chris Solomon and Tron Carter from NoLayingUp, Brendan Porath from SB Nation and Coleman McDowell from GOLF.com. Kyle Porter from CBS had a nuclear take that we'll have to share sometime in the future. The timing just wasn't right today. The fiery takes are outlined below: 1:03 -- Jordan Spieth will win the Masters by four, and another three green jackets in the future 10:22 -- Sergio Garcia's happiness is leading him to a backdoor major victory 16:55 -- Pro golfers shouldn't wear hats 18:30 -- Patrick Reed is bad for golf 25:10 -- Tiger Woods must rescind his 2000 PGA Championship victory 33:05 -- Dustin Johnson will be the GOAT Note: Don't take these takes TOO seriously. That being said, if Spieth or Garcia misses the cut at Augusta, please feel free to unleash the hate.

Each episode of Drop Zone-GOLF Podcast is a deep dive into the week's most compelling stories, delivered by the sharp writers and editors from GOLF.com. Hosted by Dylan Dethier and featuring regular voices like Sean Zak, Claire Rogers, James Colgan, and Michael Bamberger, the conversation moves beyond basic scores and highlights to explore the nuances, controversies, and personalities shaping the game. You'll hear a curated list of the ten topics that actually matter, debated with the insight and occasional friendly disagreement that comes from a team living inside the sport every day. This isn't just a recap; it's an analysis of what each development means for players, fans, and the future of golf. The discussion feels like you're in the room with the editors as they break down a major ruling, an emerging rivalry, or a surprising comeback, often joined by special guests who add another layer of expertise. Tuning into this podcast provides context you won't find elsewhere, transforming the week's news into a coherent narrative about where golf is headed. It’s designed for anyone who wants to understand the 'why' behind the headlines, all delivered with the authority and access that only the GOLF.com team can provide. The tone is informed but conversational, serious when it needs to be, and always engaging. You get the sense these are the same conversations happening in the newsroom, now shared directly with you.
