PODCAST: Patrick Reed’s approach to his past & the PGA Tour’s PED approach

FOLLOW: iHEART | TUNEIN


Patrick Reed has escalated a conflict with author Shane Ryan over allegations in a forthcoming book, but it's only hurting his cause. Why did Reed choose not to acknowledge his past in a different way instead of trying to use his influence to affect allegations he cheated and stole from teammates in college?

Meanwhile, John Daly assailed the PGA Tour's anti-doping program, already under fire for how it has handled the cases of Vijay Singh and Dustin Johnson. What can the Tour do differently to offer more transparency and provide maximum protection for its members?
