Q&A: Pavan's Horrifying Accident, Zalatoris WD and Stories, PGA Tour Excitement and Sustainability

Jody Brothers, head of the Epson Tour (the Korn Ferry Tour of the LPGA), joins Ryan French to discuss the challenges and growth of the LPGA's feeder tour -- and the women's game more broadly.

Ryan French and Mark Baldwin take social media questions after Ryan's first LPGA Pro-Am victory. Topics include: the ridiculous putt to win the LPGA Pro-Am (and Ryan's five-iron that preceded it); which LIV players the PGA Tour would want back; what Ryan thinks of becoming a meme; LPGA Monday qualifiers; how course conditions separate a field; Gary Player's take; best under-the-radar stories; is Mark going to join The Cleeks; Saudi money in women's golf; and Jimmy John's vs Jersey Mikes.

In 2022, Patrick Flavin successfully Monday qualified five times on the PGA Tour and played in four more through sponsor exemptions. He earned enough non-member points to qualify for Korn Ferry Tour finals and went on to earn his KFT card for the following season. But he didn't maintain status out there and now finds himself on PGA Tour Americas. He won last week in Argentina and talks about past success, struggles, his regained confidence, and a path forward.
