Andy Johnson, Kevin Van Valkenburg, and Joseph LaMagna reconvene to discuss the latest news in men's professional golf as the 2026 season comes to a close. First, the trio each share one big takeaway from the league that was LIV Golf 1.0, with Kevin and Joseph providing a lasting memory from their time on the ground at LIV events.
