Holly G and Rich B are back in the studio talking about Jordan Spieth's back-to-back wins at the Australian Open and then this past weekend's win at the Hero World Challenge at Isleworth.
Holly got a chance to interview Spieth after his win at Isleworth and shares it with the listeners. 
Bob Harig, ESPN.com, calls in to talk to Holly and Rich about Spieth's win.
"It's incredible when you think that he was in Japan a couple of weeks ago and then went to Australia and won, then flew 16 hours to Orlando for Tiger's event," Harig commented.
Bob pointed out that it was a nice three weeks for Spieth and the three pro wins now will boost his confidence going into 2015.
Holly and Bob talk about Keegan Bradley's success with switching to the standard putter after using the belly putter for such a long time. 
"Why not change when you haven't been putting well with the belly putter and you know that you are going to have to switch to the standard putter in 2016 when the anchoring ban goes into effect," Harig said about Bradley. 
Rich asks Bob about some of the players like Keegan making equipment changes and ball changes as well.
"Tiger had new Nike irons in play and didn't play very well. We knew he was ill but actually Saturday was his best round and he had a fever of 102 F. 
The transition in Tiger's game from the greatest short game of all time about five years ago to now is a little crazy," Harig said. "Why would you change it when you were the best." 
Holly asks Bob about the Ryder Cup task force's first meeting and what he knew about it. Bob said he feels that the task force is going to keep everything close to the vest and then announce something when they have sorted it all out.  Like Tiger suggested in his press conference .... we should only have to do this once.
Terrie Purdum, Publisher Florida Golf Central Magazine, calls in to talk to Rich B and Holly about Rich's success in the North Florida PGA as well as being the Bachelor of the Month in the magazine.  The three talk about the PGA SuperStore opening locally in the Orlando area on Turkey Lake Rd.
Jeff Shain, PGATour.com calls in to talk about the Hero World Challenge among other things as the season wrapped up. They talk about the baboon playing through with Luke Donald in South Africa.
