S2E14: Qualifying – Part 4 – “The SVP Caddie” (feat. Brian Neault)

The 2026 tournament season is winding down, with only a few opportunities left for Derek to make progress towards winning his bet with Carson. Luckily, one of those opportunities is just 45 minutes away and has become a staple on Derek’s tournament schedule… the local qualifier for the PGA TOUR’s annual World Wide Technology Championship. 

Almost exactly a year ago, Derek’s “cousin-in-law”, Mike Kelly, caddied for him en-route to a not-so-great score of 82. This year, Derek is bringing in the best possible looper he knows… his actual cousin, and lifelong best friend, Brian Neault. 

Today’s episode features the most on-course audio we’ve ever captured, as Derek and Brian attempt to advance through pre-qualifying and get one step closer to competing in a PGA TOUR event in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
