	Description:		The hour begins with award winning journalist - Christine Brennan from USA Today - to discuss the LIV tournament and how the PGA suspended players for heading over to London this week (2:00) Then a discussion about whether or not sports washing can work and is Saudi Arabia using sports to distract from human rights violations. Tiger Woods has already turned down nearly a billion dollars but how long could leagues like LIV last? Next we catch up with Jesse Rubinoff from Tim and Friends (20:00) who is working at the RBC Canadian Open. Sadly the tournament was overshadowed with all the controversy with LIV. Finally, we speak with Jim Callis (30:00) from MLB.com who is an expert on MLB prospects and he helps us tee up the arrival of Gabriel Moreno the Blue Jays this weekend.
