Ben and Kent dive into the historic upset that was Sophia Popov, at 304th in the Rolex Women's World Rankings, winning the AIG Women's Open. They talk about Popov's incredible road to the AIG Women's Open off the top, the testament to the strength of the game that a player that deep in the rankings could win (11:40), Catriona Matthew's early run (18:45), the Olympics positioning for Inbee Park and Jasmine Suwannapura (23:05), and Danielle Kang's Sunday charge and how difficult it is to stay in contention week over week (33:15). Ben analyzes Kent's bets on The Paisley Par, and how Sophia Popov's odds were a reminder of the value out there (36:05). They briefly preview the Walmart Northwest Arkansas Championship (40:44) as well.
