Sports Illustrated presents The Dan Evans Show, a golf show about the stories, debates, personalities, and moments shaping the game on and off the course. Hosted by Dan Evans, the show goes inside tournament weeks and beyond them, into the culture, business, gear, travel, money, media, and everyday experiences that make golf worth talking about. With real access, honest opinions, and a crew that is not afraid to disagree, Dan brings listeners into the conversations golfers are actually having.
The game is bigger than the leaderboard. This is where the rest of the story gets talked about.
Inside the Genesis GV90 at Medinah with Amy Marentic
The Dan Evans Show is on site at Medinah Country Club during the 2026 Presidents Cup for a conversation with Genesis executive Amy Marentic and a closer look at the new Genesis GV90.
Amy talks with Dan about the thinking behind Genesis, how the brand approaches luxury, and why being willing to say yes to ambitious ideas matters when you are trying to build something different.
Then the conversation turns to the GV90.
Amy explains how some of the vehicle’s most unusual ideas made the jump from concept to production, including its hidden B-pillar, coach doors, front seats that swivel while the vehicle is stationary, built-in refrigerator, cinema mode, electrochromic moonroof, roof airbag, and heated and cooled cupholders.
The interview also gets into Amy’s path from aerospace engineering to the automotive industry, her approach to leadership, why she embraces uncomfortable situations, and how Genesis thinks about building a luxury brand without being tied to decades of legacy.

Scottie Scheffler’s Presidents Cup Problem, Live From Medinah
The Dan Evans Show is live from Medinah Country Club for Presidents Cup week.
With players already on site and the course being prepared before the crowds arrive, Dan and the crew break down the biggest story surrounding Team USA: Scottie Scheffler is almost unbeatable in normal stroke play, but team golf has been a different challenge.
The guys get into Scottie’s 3-5-1 Presidents Cup record, why match play changes the way he has to compete, and how that compares to Justin Thomas at 10-0-2. They also debate whether opponents bring a different level of intensity when they draw Scottie and whether this is finally the week he changes the story.
Plus, the crew discusses Team USA’s recent international losses, Jackson Koivun’s opportunity, Geoff Ogilvy’s connection to the Medinah redesign, the brutal four-inch rough, wet course conditions, Medinah’s championship history, and what they are seeing firsthand from inside the property during Presidents Cup week.

The Presidents Cup captain’s picks are officially in, and the debates started immediately.
Dan and the crew break down Jackson Koivun making Team USA, why his match-play background makes the pick so interesting, and which players have the strongest case for being left out. Ben Griffin becomes the biggest snub debate, while Jason Day’s injury situation and Geoff Ogilvy’s familiarity with Medinah add even more intrigue to the final rosters.
