Rich Bianco and guest host Jeff Shain are in the studio talking to Bob Harig, ESPN.com, about Tom Watson's extra year exemption for the for finishing 2nd at the 2009 Open Championship. 
Rich asks Bob about Tiger and what he is up to lately. Tiger typically doesn't play the week before a major championship unless he has to. Can Tiger get competitive and ready for the British Open after just coming back from surgery?
The trio wrap up the segment talking about the United States' unfortunate exit at the World Cup at the hands of Belgium. 
Steve Eubanks, Global Golf Post, calls in to talk to the team about Tiger Woods' chances to play well at the British Open. In his blog, Steve talks about how Tiger looked lost at the Quicken Loans National where he missed the cut. Jeff talks to Steve about how the way Tiger is approaching the major after being off after a surgery. In the past Steve says that Tiger would usually be grinding to get back to the top of his game after being off. But this week he is actually on vacation. Global Golf Post covers the world of golf.

Terrie Purdum, Florida Golf Central Magazine publisher, talks to the duo about what's going on the world of golf. Terrie talks about the launch of Turf Life this past week. Terrie and her team have come up with the slogan that is similar to Salt Life that you see all over the automobiles traveling in the Central Florida area. Florida Golf Central Mag covers a lot of charity tournaments.
