A lots 3 00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:07,560 Speaker 1: on the line besides the prize money, most notably entry 4 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: to the PGA Championship coming up. Of course, he has 5 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 1: a chip for Birdie fifty ish feet nails it. When's 6 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: breakthrough victory, It's fantastic Ryan Fox, as well as morning Mike. Congratulations. 7 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 1: So okay, here's your first question. From the time the 8 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:24,599 Speaker 1: ball left the club, when did you know? 9 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 2: I mean, it landed exactly where I wanted it to land, 10 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 2: and I reckon about ten foot hour. I thought I 11 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 2: had a read good chance of going in. I had 12 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:39,839 Speaker 2: a part in regulation that was really similar line and 13 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 2: it didn't break very much. I missed it to the right, 14 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 2: and when I saw this one was further left, I'm like, 15 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 2: doubt it's got a chance. It had good speed, and 16 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,200 Speaker 2: obviously I was pretty excited to see it going. 17 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: I reckon on any given day, how many times out 18 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: of ten would you back yourself to make that shot? 19 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: Probably zero point one percent or point one out of 20 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 2: ten or something. You know, like you don't chip in 21 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 2: very often. You know, it was an easy enough chip 22 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,199 Speaker 2: without the apart from a little bit of rough behind 23 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 2: the clubhead, but yeah, you know, to make that, especially 24 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: in the situation, you know, that's like a one in 25 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 2: a thousand shot and to put it off in that situation, yeah, yeah, 26 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 2: very toughed and obviously I get a lot out of it, 27 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 2: but you know, it meant a lot to get that 28 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 2: first win on the PGA Tour. 29 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, what's the most important thing the first win, the 30 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: check or the entry and this, you know, the ability 31 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 1: to play on the tour for a couple of years 32 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: the latter. 33 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 2: You know, having job security on the pg Tour for 34 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 2: a couple of years is pretty big. You know, we 35 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 2: don't get a lot of that in this game, and 36 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 2: it's yeah, it's nice to nice to be able to 37 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: plan a schedule now for the next couple of years, 38 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 2: have some certainty around you know, being based in the 39 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 2: States for the next couple of years, you know, figure 40 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: out what to do with kids, schooling and all of 41 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 2: that stuff, which are good problems to figure out, but 42 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 2: at least you know, there's some certainty with all of 43 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 2: that now, and that's yeah, that was huge. You know, 44 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 2: the other stuff's important getting into the PGA. This Week's 45 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: was a nice bonus as well, and obviously the paycheck 46 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 2: doesn't hurt. But you know, the biggest thing as getting 47 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 2: that status. 48 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: And lovely to have the family with you yesterday. 49 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 2: Yes, you can probably hear them in the background there 50 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 2: we're in the car driving up to Quail Hollow now 51 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 2: and yeah, it was. It was awesome, you know to 52 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 2: I don't think the girls quite knew what was going on. 53 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 2: They're a bit overawed by the cameras at the end, 54 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 2: but you know, to be able to share that moment 55 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 2: with them was pretty cool. My wife actually what she 56 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 2: saw some of it while she's picking the girls up 57 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 2: from childcare and didn't quite realize I'd won until one 58 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 2: of the other players said, hey, you know these if 59 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 2: these guys, miss Ryan's going to actually win, and it 60 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: was pretty cool. She was a bit shocked, and it 61 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 2: was It was a nice Mother's Day present for her 62 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 2: as well. 63 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: I reckon, what's the drive from where you were to 64 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: Quail Hollot. How far is it? 65 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 2: It's about three and a half hours. It's not bad, 66 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 2: so it's been a slow morning though, I can say that. 67 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: Can we say why Ryan? 68 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 2: There might have been a little bit of red wine 69 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 2: drunk last night. But I haven't missed anything today. We've 70 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,839 Speaker 2: had storms all day. We're driving through the pouring rain 71 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 2: up to Quell Hollow, so apparently the golf course if 72 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 2: it's not shut, I don't think there'll be anyone out 73 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 2: there today. They had no fans out on the golf 74 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 2: course today either, so it's yeah, I don't feel like 75 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 2: I've missed much. And you know, obviously getting in this 76 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 2: week was a nice bonus. The only way I was 77 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 2: going to get in was actually winning.
