2026 Bank of Utah Championship DFS First Take
In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy Lack is joined by Bryan to preview the Black Desert Championship DFS slate, digging into a weak fall swing field and what it means for contest selection on DraftKings. They break down why the wide fairways still punish missed drives, why Presidents Cup players like Brooks Koepka and Nick Taylor made the trip and where the new ISN interactive model disagrees with DataGolf on Harry Hall, Mackenzie Hughes, Max Homa, Patrick Rodgers and Max Greyserman. They then go through projections, with Koepka the chalk play, Matt Coody their top value and Ben James, Michael Brennan, Matt Wallace and Maverick McNealy standing out, plus bets on Jackson Suber, Hall and Jordan L. Smith.

Presidents Cup Recap + Bank of Utah Championship Betting & DFS Preview
In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy Lack is joined by producer Josh and BK to recap the U.S. team's 17-13 Presidents Cup win at Medinah No. 3, from the 9.5-2.5 Sunday singles comeback to the course's strong match-play setup and the captaincy criticism, especially sitting Scottie Scheffler in foursomes. They review the strokes gained, with Cam Young the top U.S. performer, Sungjae Im leading the Internationals in approach, Wyndham Clark better than his 1-4 record and Brooks Koepka delivering a key singles win. They then turn to Black Desert in Utah, where wide fairways with severe miss penalties make distance plus accuracy off the tee the key fit. They close with a first look at the new ISN interactive modeling and EV tool, with early leans on Kris Ventura, Ben James, Jackson Suber and Max Greyserman.

2026 Presidents Cup Betting Guide
In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy Lack previews the Presidents Cup at a renovated Medinah No. 3 and shifts from architecture to betting a 12 v 12 match play format of foursomes, four-ball and singles. He walks through the OCM renovation, including wider corridors, larger greens, more short grass and a rerouted lake-side finish, and why it favors accuracy, left-miss avoidance, bentgrass putting and experience, with birdie making key in four-ball. He then goes through his in-depth model for the week, with Wyndham Clark and Ryan Fox rising in best ball, Russell Henley and Justin Thomas fitting alternate shot and Si Woo Kim and Tom Kim his best Internationals pairing.

2026 Biltmore Championship DFS First Take
In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy is joined by Bryan for a DFS First Take on the Biltmore Championship at Walnut Cove, where the Fall Swing returns at a course with no PGA Tour history, no Data Golf course fit adjustment and real room to get off market. They walk through the smaller DraftKings contest structures, the ownership crunch between Jackson Koivun and Jacob Bridgeman and whether 35 to 40 percent makes Koivun a fade in single entry, then build around the venue itself, five par 3s, three par 5s, elevation and an over index on 200 yard plus long irons. Favorite plays include J.T. Poston, Kevin Yu, Ben James, Corey Conners, Mac Meisner, Jackson Suber, Rico Hoey and Christiaan Bezuidenhout, plus a look at the thin 6K range.

2026 Biltmore Championship Preview
In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy Lack previews the inaugural Biltmore Championship at Jack Nicklaus' Walnut Cove in Asheville, a par 71 listed at 7,249 yards that plays shorter at altitude, with delayed DraftKings pricing and thin market attention leaving bettors ahead of the numbers. He breaks down five long par 3s, short reachable par 5s and a heavy dose of 200 yard plus approaches that put long irons at a premium, expects soft conditions with rough height as the key defense and sees accuracy outweighing distance. He then works through his early card, with Jackson Suber the 55-1 favorite, Kevin Yu drawing interest, Doug Ghim a pass at 22-1 to 25-1 and Bo Hossler, Patrick Fishburn, Rico Hoey and J.T. Poston also in play.

Medinah No. 3 & The 2026 Presidents Cup with Mike Cocking
In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy Lack talks with golf architect Mike Cocking of OCM about the Medinah No. 3 redesign and keeping the course member-friendly while testing the best players ahead of the Presidents Cup and possible future majors. Cocking explains the strategic approach of adding width, angles and stronger green complexes after a course that played too tight for members while still yielding low pro scoring, and walks through rerouting the final six holes to cut the repetitive par 3s over water, add a compelling short par 4 and use Lake Kadijah more diagonally. They get into the altered Presidents Cup routing, a bold out of bounds fence inspired by UK golf and old Medinah photos, and why firmness matters most in the setup.

Sand Valley Deep Dive
In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy Lack closes out the 2025-2026 PGA Tour season after a strong betting year, thanks the Inside Sports Network team and Discord subscribers and previews off-season tools plus the Presidents Cup, US Open tennis and the fall swing. He then delivers a golf travel and architecture recap of Sand Valley, covering why Fried Egg events are the best value for access and logistics and why the semi-private Lido is tough to get on. He has Coore and Crenshaw's Sand Valley as his No. 2 and a top public course, calls David McLay Kidd's Mammoth Dunes more strategic than critics claim, finds Tom Doak's Sedge Valley short of his expectations and calls the Lido replica near perfect, then compares the resort's accessibility and vibe to Bandon.

2026 Tour Championship DFS First Take
In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy is joined by Josh and Discord member Master J, also known as Jake. They kick off with recent golf travel and a course comparison between Oak Hill and East Lake, two Donald Ross layouts restored by Andrew Green, contrasting Oak Hill's thick rough with East Lake's short grass runoffs and member-friendly setup. Josh shares his bet on Chris Gotterup at 22-1 and recalls attending East Lake in both 2023 and 2024. Jake then breaks down his DFS approach, leaning on single-entry contests including the 3K, the Insider sheet's ownership and projections, and pivoting away from chalk in high-stakes fields, plus how satellites have landed him Masters tickets and a ninth-place finish worth 50K. They close with a Tour Championship preview, covering pricing and ownership, skepticism around Scottie Scheffler at 14K amid illness questions, value plays like Viktor Hovland at 7,300, and potential targets including Patrick Cantlay, Adam Scott, Hideki Matsuyama and Gary Woodland.

2026 Tour Championship Betting & DFS Preivew
In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy Lack breaks down the Tour Championship at East Lake, digging into the Andrew Green renovation and what it means for betting a 30-man, no-starting-strokes field. He walks through the redesign, including more short grass, deeper bunkers and reclaimed water, why it improved the course without making it harder, and why moisture rather than wind drives scoring. He then goes through his in-depth model for the week, with Scheffler a clear No. 1 and Chris Gotterup and Cameron Young standing out as interesting fits.

2026 BMW Championship DFS First Take
In this episode of Inside Golf podcast, Producer Josh and Jack fill in for Andy and are joined by Bryan to recap TPC Southwind as a tough but poor TV test, tip their cap to Scottie Scheffler, and celebrate Kenny's DFS UFC championship. They preview the 50-man DFS slate, breaking down the course (tree-lined, long par-4 heavy, penal Nicklaus design, zoysia fairways, mixed rough, new bentgrass greens) and debating correlated setups like Muirfield Village, Riviera, Torrey Pines, and Craig Ranch, plus long-iron comps like Memorial Park and Valspar. They dig into Data Golf value plays, expected ownership, and whether Scheffler's $14.4K price tag is worth the roster sacrifice, pegging him around 25-30% owned despite models favoring much lower inclusion.
