Episode 54: LIV Is Broke, Charlie Woods Just Got Paid

Just Alex and Jason this week (Marcus is on taxi duty), and there's a lot to cover. They open with some personal news — Jason's daughter got engaged to a Navy SEAL hopeful, sparking a conversation about military relationships, long-distance timelines, and dating advice for young adults figuring life out.Then it's a full golf news roundup: Team USA's third straight team-event loss in 13 months after a tight Solheim Cup defeat, why American players dominate individually but struggle in team formats, and new Ryder Cup qualification changes moving from a two-year to a one-year cycle. The big story, though, is LIV Golf filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy — what it means for players still owed money (including Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau), why the payments are unsecured, and the inside story of how the failed PGA Tour–LIV merger actually played out.They also break down the new TGL and WTGL team rosters, Brooks Koepka's move to Motor City, confusing team-city logic, and the return (or non-return) of stars like Nelly Korda and Jessica Korda. Plus: Charlie Woods' reported $3.5 million deal with TaylorMade, a deep dive into equipment free agency, why drivers matter more than irons in club deals, and a teaser for an upcoming exclusive video at a course set to host a major.Our Links: https://linktr.ee/scramblingdads Scrambling Dads Podcast is a production of Poppy Verde, LLC (https://linktr.ee/poppyverde) Partnerships:Integrity Golf Performancewww.igp.com Music: www.djbavi.com
