In the second segment of the show, Holly G welcomes Jeff Babineau of Golfweek, who talks about Tiger's return next month. It looks like Tiger may play one event a month for the rest of 2016. Jeff thinks Tiger is playing at a pace where he can get himself ready for the Masters in 2017. 

Will asks Jeff about where he thinks Tiger's mind will be when he returns. He needs to build his game and build his confidence. 

Holly talks with Jeff about Rory bouncing back and turning his season around on a 15 foot putt for a triple bogey. Jeff thinks that Rory had been lost with his putting even though he was striking the ball so well, his putting was letting him down.

It's also good news for Darren Clarke and the young European Ryder Cup team with McIlroy playing so well now. Another guy on the prowl and prepared for the Ryder Cup is Bulldog Patrick Reed who leads the FedEx Cup standings right now. Jeff thinks that maybe the US team might try something new for the Ryder Cup like having some younger guys who are really fired up. Not that the vets aren't but maybe switch it up with some new blood.

The PGA Tour is headed to Crooked Stick in Indiana, Holly asks Jeff about the course. He said it's a good track and the players like to play there. Some of the guys who are playing well now played well three years ago. The guy who wins in Atlanta will be your FedEx Cup champ. 

Jeff thinks that Jordan Spieth will be really focused this week in order for him to play well and make the Top 5 heading into the final event at East Lake Country Club. 

Babs takes DJ to win this week and solidify his spot in the Top 5 and a good chance to win the $10 million bounty.

Ben Everill, PGA Tour reporter for Australia Associated Press, calls in from Crooked Stick to talk about Jason Day. Ben said that this is Jason's worst year driving only hitting 50 percent of the fairways. He reports that Jason just put a new shaft in his driver Wednesday before the third FedEx Cup event. 

Holly asked Ben about Jason Day's wife Ellie's car accident at the Deutsche Bank. He said everyone is fine and Ellie only had a case of whiplash. 

Adam Scott was playing well earlier in the year but has crept his way into the Top 5. He thinks that Adam has a very good chance this week. Ben said that Adam played well in the Pro-Am on Wednesday and has been playing well the past two weeks in the FedExCup. He thinks that golf fans might be in for a shootout between Adam and Rory McIlroy this week.

Holly G and Will Perry wrap up this week's hour of intelligent golf talk talking with Todd Lewis  from the Golf Channel calls in from the BMW Championship. Holly and Todd talk about Tiger's return. Todd thinks it is interesting that Tiger is playing in three different events, in three different countries and he thinks it might be a "circus" when Tiger tees it off at the Safeway Open in October. Woods will also play in the Turkish Open in November and then the final event his own World Golf Challenge in December.

Todd said that these are 3 events that Tiger would like to play in but it still remains to be seen if he will be able to play. Will talks about the strategy that Tiger is using playing in two non-cut events.

Holly asks Todd who he thinks will win this week. Rory McIlroy.
