Tiger freaking Woods is back and we’re previewing his return to golf at this week’s Memorial tournament. Dog Bell joins Rick Gehman, Kyle Porter, Mark Immelman and Greg DuCharme on today’s episode of The First Cut Podcast. We start out with general fawning over just how stacked this field is. This week’s tournament will look a lot like a major with both the field and the venue (1:30). Of course the headline of the week is the one and only Tiger Woods. Big Cat is making his first PGA Tour start since the Genesis Invitational where he looked stiff and finished last among those who made the cut. What does Tiger need to do in order to win this week (16:00)? Rory McIlroy will play with Cat on Thursday and Friday. The current world no. 1 hasn’t looked like his pre-hiatus self since golf returned to action. Is this the week that McIlroy turn his prospects around (22:00)? Did the PGA Tour miss an opportunity by not pairing Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka together in Thursday/Friday featured group coverage? The beefy duo has been exchanging shots since last year’s TOUR Championship. Who do we have more confidence in at Muirfield Village (24:04)? Patrick Cantlay’s value is stellar this week as a 16/1 defending champion. His recent form is looking sharp, is it worth laying a wager on the world’s 10th ranked player (31:05)? After the break we take a look at the betting board. Stay tuned as we run through our favorite matchup selections (44:23), expert picks (58:44) and best bets (1:07:13). ————————— Want to win $3,000 without putting any of your own cash at stake?
