Our current edition of Podcast 2020, was done on the landline. Not over some Pinehurst Brewery Lateral hazard brew. Darn !

I could use some Lateral Hazard now, who knows maybe it’s the cure for the Corona-19 Virus.

Podcast 2020-Volume 2 between the 2019 Illinois Golf Hall of Famer Len Ziehm, and Rory Spears that Gog Blog Guy.

We talk it out, and break down pro golf shutting down. The Players is gone, Valspar gone, Match Play Gone, Valero Texas Open, Gone, The Masters Postponed…to when.

Len talks being on the grounds at the Players, and lets you in on how fat your wallet needs to be to golf there starting Tuesday…ouch. The college game, or lack of it, might the Big Ten save college golf for the spring of 2020.

What’s happening here, a couple of courses shutting down for two weeks. Some staying open. We have details.
