Will knows some of the Mexican players from working around them at the Gary Gilchrist Academy.   Holly welcomes Bob Harig, ESPN.com, to the show. The two talk about this week's field of players. Bob talks to Holly and Will about Jordan Spieth's decision to play less this year after competing in so many events last year against the will of some of his advisors. Bob remembers all the events that Jordan competed in at the beginning of the season last year. With Jordan winning in December, Bob feels that might have thrown off Spieth's thinking that playing so many events might not be that bad.  This year so far, Spieth seems to be keeping more of a domestic schedule and turning down some appearance fees.   Will asks Bob about what he thinks Jordan's schedule will be this year.  Bob said that he doesn't know that all of the traveling and playing that Spieth did last year caused him to not win as much, but it definitely takes a toll on the players and they seem to start to wear down toward the end of the season. Holly asks Bob about the passing of the commissioner’s torch from Finchem to Monahan. Bob has an article on ESPN.com about it. (Jay Monahan named fourth PGA Tour commissioner).  The fact that Jay was a tournament director twice helps him transition into the job as opposed to Finchem who had worked with President Carter's administration prior to stepping into the PGA Tour. Bob like John Rahm's chances of winning on the Tour this week.
