Rory’s Redemption: Masters Recap & Oita Golf Adventures!
An emotional Rory McIlroy finally captures the Masters, and KC, Damon, and Ryan jump on the mic for an instant reaction show. A proud moment for KC, the resident Irishman, as he gives his countryman props for closing it out—but the big question remains: will Rory add more majors this year and beyond?
The crew also recaps a few other big storylines: Justin Rose's strong showing, DeChambeau’s backyard pint stop, none of the crew's dark horse picks came through; Lowry had a tough +9 final round, and Aberg's slip-up on 18 cost him any sliver of hope. Matsuyama quietly carded the low round of Sunday, and once again, Augusta National proved why it's golf’s Disneyland with flawless conditions and world-class organization.
In our Japan travel segment, we spotlight Oita—famous for its incredible onsen towns, 22 golf courses, fresh seafood, and the local favorite, Mugi Shochu.
(And a quick correction: Ben Hogan also completed the career Grand Slam, making it six players in history not 5 as KC points out- sumimasen!)
