Description

Holly G and Rich B are in the studio talking about the finish of the regular season.

Bill Haas’s amazing par save from a greenside water hazard on the second playoff hole, No. 17 at East Lake, helped him capture not on the Tour Championship but the FedExCup edging out Hunter Mahan. Haas earned a total of $11.4 million. Mahan had an incredible day but his putting ultimately was his undoing.

Jeff Shane from the Orlando Sentinel calls in and talks about the final event of the FedExCup Playoffs. He believes that the shot on 17 out of the water will be played over and over for many years to come.

The trio also comments on the final day and how the FedExCup was up in the air until the end.

Jeff also comments on the U.S. and Europe’s amazing Solheim Cup over the weekend and the drama that took place.

ESPN.com’s Bob Harig calls in and shares his thoughts on the 17th playoff of the golf season and the wrap up of the FedExCup. Harig said the he feels that Haas not knowing that he could win the FedExCup probably allowed him to play a little more relaxed than if he knew what was riding on his game.

The Golf Channels’ Todd Lewis wraps up the show talking about the FedExCup finish calling in from Las Vegas.  Lewis feels that no one enjoyed it more than Tim Finchem because of the drama that centered around the finish and the momentum that it gives the PGA Tour for years to come.

Mary Bryan joins the show and talks about the Solheim Cup with Todd Lewis and Holly and Rich B. The fact that Europe finally won the Solheim Cup Lewis feels that it has helped the event and started a rivalry that the event didn’t have when the US was winning every time.
