So yeah, I started this obviously when when kind 47 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 1: of you know, things were not looking good and we 48 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 1: were kind of all on lockdown and nobody knew what 49 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: was going to get what was going to happen, and 50 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 1: we all kind of stuck stuck a home and you know, 51 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: there's a lot of people worried about what what was happening, 52 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: and you know, I just decided to do something. Obviously, 53 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 1: through my Instagram over the years, I've done a few 54 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: tips here and then. People always loved that. I think 55 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: they love that insight. They love to hear, you know, 56 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: how you think about a shot or what you're what 57 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: you're trying to do with certain shots. And so I 58 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: thought I'd do a daily tip, you know, a daily 59 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: kind of instruction stuff that really I've learned a lot 60 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: from my coach, stuff I've picked up along the way, 61 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: And so I started doing I probably did twenty or 62 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: five to thirty of those in a row. Probably I 63 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 1: took the weekends off. I need a little bit of 64 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: a break, but you know, and after I did that, 65 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 1: I thought it would be fun to kind of get 66 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: some special guests. So obviously, by that time, Lockdown where 67 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 1: I'm living in Florida and at the Bears Club had opened. 68 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: The course had opened, so I was going back out 69 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: and practicing, and very fortunate to have a lot of 70 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: good pro members at the Bear's Club, so it wasn't 71 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 1: too hard to find these guys, ask them for a 72 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: quick tip and get them to do something, you know, 73 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: for the fans at home, you know, people who were 74 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: still in lockdown, who are at home, how they could 75 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: continue to work on their game and try and get 76 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: a little bit better at golf, you know, while kind 77 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: of dealing with everything that was going on. 78 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 3: So I love what you're doing, Luke, but I've got 79 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 3: a little bone to pick with you because a bunch 80 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 3: of our guys at the club have been watching your 81 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 3: tips and they're starting to improve. I can tell like 82 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 3: they're touch around the greens a little bit then, and 83 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 3: they're doing some different things. Uh, are you available for 84 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 3: a little payoff under the table to start giving some 85 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 3: tips that will actually hurt the games of some of 86 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 3: the guys I'm playing against? 87 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: We we could anything is anything is possible?

There we go. We we 92 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 3: need some of that. So how's your game? And and 93 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 3: and in more general terms, are you looking forward to 94 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 3: coming back? Are you ready to come back? And are 95 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 3: you confident in the PGA tours plan moving ahead to 96 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 3: start a colonial three weeks from now. 97 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, I certainly and trusting the tour, and I'm sure 98 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: they've been very diligent about, you know, making sure that 99 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: when we come back it'll be in a safe manner. 100 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: You know, this is obviously unprecedented time, very strange time. 101 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: We haven't gone through anything like this before, certainly in 102 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: our lifetime, so it's not going to be perfect, but 103 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: I I think they thought through all the different scenarios, 104 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: and then certainly, I'm I'm looking forward to going back. 105 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: I'm excited to compete again. Obviously, when when this all 106 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: kind of started was during the Players Championship. I wasn't 107 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: a part of that field, but the week before I 108 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: played really nicely at the Honda, finished eleventh that week 109 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: and felt like my game was really rounding in some 110 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: good forms. So obviously, in a certain regards, I was 111 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 1: disappointed that we were ending. I'm sure everyone was disappointed. Obviously, 112 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: but you know, I certainly felt like my game was 113 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: was was into in a good place, and I was 114 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 1: excited to compete for a bit more so, I've been 115 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: practicing pretty hard since we've we've come out of lockdown 116 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: down here, and I'm excited to get going again. 117 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 4: You mentioned you felt like your game was in a 118 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 4: good place and doing a lot of analysis on different golfers. Obviously, 119 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 4: you know you have in the world number one, You've 120 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 4: got a ton of success. What does it look like 121 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 4: for you when your game is in a good place. 122 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 4: So obviously you know you're not bombing it, you know, 123 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 4: relative to guys, but you're getting a ton of strokes 124 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 4: on approach, You're gaining strokes around the green. You've given 125 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 4: all these short game tips that are helping people for you, 126 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 4: how do you know there's some signal, Hey, i'm playing 127 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 4: my game right now. 128 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: Well, the thing that I feel when i'm and I 129 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: feel good about my game, my chances is a little 130 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: bit more of my longer game. I feel more in control. 131 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: I feel more in control of my driver. Certainly, I'm not, 132 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: as you said, I'm not one of the longer hitters, 133 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: but at times in the last few years, I've certainly 134 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: not been accurate enough, you know. And you add that 135 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 1: to with some you know, someone that hits it two 136 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: eighty five, two ninety off the tee, you know, I'm 137 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: gonna struggle. I'm going to have to play defense a lot. 138 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: So if I can get the ball in the fairway 139 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: a little bit more and really get a little bit 140 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: more sharper with my eyes certainly. Of course, like PJ 141 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: National for the Honda, as a demanding golf course, you 142 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: have to hit good shots. You can't really fluke it 143 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: around that place. So I really felt like I was 144 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: hitting good shots. I was creating a lot of birdy 145 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: opportunities with some good eye and play. I'm never really 146 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: too concerned with my putting and my short game. That's 147 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: always reasonably good. But you know, obviously the older I get, 148 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: that becomes a little bit more difficult as well to 149 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: maintain a high level. But for me, yeah, if i 150 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: feel like I'm getting the ball in the fairweth for 151 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: Tea and I'm hitting a lot of good, solid iron 152 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: shots and giving myself chances, that's that's when I know 153 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: that I'm kind of getting back to that kind of 154 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: twenty eleven twenty twelve run when I was at my best, Luke. 155 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,679 Speaker 3: We've heard from so many other players over the years 156 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 3: and whether you're a professional chasing having been number one 157 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 3: in the world at one point, or you're a ten 158 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 3: handicap trying to get back to a seven handicap that 159 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 3: you used to be. Is there a secret to try 160 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 3: to figure out how to unlock sort of the way 161 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 3: you were playing before? And if so, like, what is 162 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 3: that secret? How do you get back to? Man I 163 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 3: was at one point there. I'd love to get back 164 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 3: to there. I'm the same person, I have the same swing, 165 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 3: I have the same short game. Why am I not 166 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 3: getting there? And and does it? I mean, is that 167 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 3: just like the forever question that we're never going to 168 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 3: answer the game of golf? 169 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: Well, it's definitely the million dollar question I think. You know, 170 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: golf is so complex, but I think you could probably 171 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: answer that from both a mental and a physical standpoint. 172 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: Obviously physically, you know a lot of stuff that myself 173 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: and my coach are doing. We're looking back at some 174 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: swings from from twenty ten, eleven, twelve. You know, those 175 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,559 Speaker 1: were the years when I really my statistics were so good. 176 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: You know, I was hitting a lot of greens. I 177 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: was even second in Part five scoring, so you know, 178 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: even though I wasn't hit it that far, everything was clicking. 179 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: So you know, we're looking at physical things what I 180 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: did well, but also just from a mental standpoint, you know, 181 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: what was what was I doing in my practice to 182 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: get my mental acuteness so strong that you know, I 183 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: was able to withstand like bad shots. And I think 184 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: that that's part of the game too, is you know, 185 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: really practicing in a way that gives you that mental confidence. 186 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: And certainly my best year is I was probably a 187 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,559 Speaker 1: little bit more single minded, a little bit more ruthless, 188 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: a little bit more diligent about what I did in 189 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: my practice. I was very good at coming up with 190 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 1: drills to make my practice really mean something, and suddenly 191 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: started to try and get back to some of some 192 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: of the things that I did back when I was 193 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: playing my best. 194 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 4: Talking about specific courses and kind of the schedule that 195 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 4: PGA Torre golfers are going to have. I mean, obviously 196 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 4: you've had a ton of success like RBC Heritage, there's 197 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 4: certain course fits where like your strengths are going to 198 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 4: be on display, and you know a lot of guys 199 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 4: kind of put together a schedule based on those strengths. 200 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 4: But now everyone's itching to come back and you know 201 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 4: there's less events and then a shorter. 202 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 3: Period of time. 203 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 4: How do you see people planning out their schedule and 204 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 4: what are your plans for your schedule? 205 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: Well, as you said, I think you know, with this 206 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: big long layoff, what are we nine or ten weeks 207 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: now since since the Players Championship. I think people are 208 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,559 Speaker 1: going to want to play. I think some people, some pros, 209 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: might be a little bit cautious at first, just to 210 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: see how it all plays off, getting back into a 211 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: different kind of style of life that we know. But 212 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: some events are really going to benefit from stronger fields. 213 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: I think Heritage RBC is going to be one of those. 214 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: I think you'll see players like Brory possibly playing. You know, 215 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: players that wouldn't usually play on a course like that, 216 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: but are going to want to play just to play. 217 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: And you know, my schedule right now would be that 218 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: would be probably my first event back to RBC Heritage. 219 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: I'd love to play that one, love to play Travelers. 220 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: I'd love to play our Rocket Mortgage. I would need 221 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: an invite probably, but I'd love to play memorial and 222 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 1: then I'll probably take it from there. But I certainly, 223 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 1: you know, want to play and get out there and 224 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: compete again. I think in a funny way, maybe this 225 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 1: break is is good for players in a certain way, 226 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,319 Speaker 1: you know, to have a physical or mental break, you know. 227 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: I think certain players will come back and actually be 228 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: be stronger because we play such a long season in general, 229 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: that having that little bit of break being refreshed and 230 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 1: getting getting ready to go again, we'll be a benefit. 231 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Luke, you said probably playing the RBC Heritage 232 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 3: you played so well there over the years. Did was 233 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 3: was that a guarantee you made in there that you know, 234 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 3: if if you're playing fantasy, if you're betting, I will 235 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 3: definitely play really well. You guarantee something there. 236 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: Well, I kind of guarantee you win. I think the 237 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 1: last ten times I played, I finished second five times. 238 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 1: Two times. I've not everything but win. But hopefully I'd 239 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:30,679 Speaker 1: love to slip that top jacket on. 240 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 3: I was gonna say, do they give you like a 241 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 3: for all those second places, like you know, something ants 242 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 3: or something for Tartan pants. 243 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: You know, man, nothing nothing for second if you ate first? 244 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: Your last Jason, you know, that. 245 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 4: Course history there is like off the charts, and you know, 246 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 4: I play a lot of draft kings and you know, 247 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 4: speculating on golf and it's a lot of fun. Do 248 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 4: how much there's obviously a comfort there and I think 249 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 4: it's a it's a great course fit. You know, when 250 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 4: people are looking at course history, I'm more of a 251 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,719 Speaker 4: I think there's obviously something there and there's a thing 252 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 4: for people being comfortable, and I think there's a strong 253 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 4: correlation with that course fit as well. How do you 254 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 4: think about stuff like that if you're looking at golfers, 255 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 4: you know, some guys play really well at certain places 256 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 4: and then there are strange ones where guys play really 257 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 4: well in place that might not be their best course 258 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 4: fit as a golfer. How much do you think course 259 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 4: history matters? 260 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: I think if you're if you're looking at betting on golfers, yeah, 261 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: I think that does matter. I mean, suddenly heritage. Heritage 262 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: is a funny one for me. So even when I 263 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 1: first went there, you know, I was very straight my 264 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: first few years on tour. I didn't hit the ball 265 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 1: that far obviously, but I thought it was going to 266 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: be a perfect course for me, and I went there 267 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: I think in two thousand and two or three and four, 268 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: and didn't sniff making the Cup. My first few years 269 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: playing that tournament. It's like I couldn't figure it out, 270 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 1: and I took a few years away from it, and 271 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: then suddenly I went back in maybe seven or not 272 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: eight or somewhere around that, and then I obviously went 273 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: on my run. So it's it's a funny one because 274 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: you know, that was a course that I when I 275 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: first went as a as a rookie, I was thinking, 276 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: this course is going to be perfect for me. Everyone 277 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: tells me it's a positional golf course, it doesn't have 278 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: to be long, et cetera, et cetera. But it took 279 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 1: me a few years to figure it out. And I 280 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: think once I did h then obviously you know it 281 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 1: was a perfect fit for me. But you know, it's 282 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: a strange one. But sometimes courses that that shouldn't fit 283 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: you you can do well at. I mean, I lost 284 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: the playoff at Tory Pye South, you know, one of 285 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: the longest. You know I wouldn't one, right, Yeah, it 286 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: was me, Chris Riley and John Daily. I mean I 287 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: was John Daily won that one in the playoffs. But 288 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 1: you know, three completely different players, you know, and ultimately, 289 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: if you're feeling it that week and you're feeling good 290 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 1: about your game, you're going to have a chance anywhere. 291 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 1: But I think obviously when I'm when I'm looking at 292 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: doing my schedule, I'm certainly looking at courses that I 293 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: feel like it's going to give me a better chance, 294 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: and Harvardtown will be one of those. 295 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 3: Now, Luke, for the last week, I've had a pressing question. 296 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 3: I mean, this is that was all great stuff, but 297 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 3: this is we're getting the important stuff now. But Keegan 298 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 3: Bradley on last week and he told us about being 299 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 3: at Baker's Bay with you, hanging out with MJ, hanging 300 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 3: out with Brady, go to the basketball court. You know 301 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 3: what I'm saying, Let's let's go shoot some hoops. Maybe 302 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 3: MJ will come down and enjoined it, and he did, 303 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 3: and it wound up being you, Keegan and another guy 304 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 3: against Jordan Brady and another guy on their site. I 305 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 3: don't want to say anything about you and Keegan, but 306 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 3: that just pready like, okay, I said it, that's awful, teams, Luke, 307 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 3: what happened there? 308 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: Well, first of all, I did actually catch a clip 309 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: of Keegan really bashing me about my basketball game. Now, 310 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: hands up, Okay, hands up. I'm from England. I played 311 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: a little bit of basketball in high school. But you know, 312 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: I'm more my more of the Steve Kerk three point 313 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: shoot kind of shoot, the kind of guy I you know, 314 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: I know my place. I was certainly not a great 315 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 1: basketball player. But but Keigan I heard his little clip 316 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: and he was going on and on about you know, 317 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: well Brady was so good and windy. It was twenty 318 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 1: five miles an hour. I mean, you look at that clip. 319 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: The trees are hardly moving. So don't don't listen to Keigan. 320 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: First of all, And I would say that I scored 321 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: four points in that game. Keegan scored zero. So whoever, 322 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: if he wants to trash talk, we then then go ahead. 323 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 3: But wait, wait, so you scored four? I now, Keegan 324 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 3: said that he was guarding Brady definitely, and he was 325 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 3: definitely scared of, like actually injuring. 326 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 1: His hero bricks round pick Brady. 327 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 3: So are we to assume that you scored four with 328 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 3: Jordan Garden? 329 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: You, I know, I should go with it, but no, 330 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 1: I was I was guarded by someone similar height of myself. Fortunately, 331 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have got anything against Jordan. We know, we 332 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: know that to be true. It was a It was 333 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: an amazing, kind of out of the blue kind of experience. Obviously, 334 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: I don't think MJ had played basketball pretty much since 335 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: he's retired. I mean, he just literally put it to 336 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: one side. Other than doing his camps, I think he 337 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: really hardly touched the basketball. And we were out there 338 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: on a kind of a fun golf trip and you know, 339 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: me and Keikan just decided to go shoot some hoops 340 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: and I think MJ kind of heard his ears pricked, 341 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: and about thirty minutes later he joined us on the court, 342 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: and obviously a few people heard on the resort that 343 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: he was he was shooting some hoops and got a 344 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: little crowd kind of came gathered up, and then Tom 345 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 1: Brady appeared and suddenly we had a three on three game, 346 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: and you know, to be a part of that was 347 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: looking back, was pretty amazing, especially after having watched the 348 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: Last Dance. I mean, I mean, that was just such 349 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: an incredible series that, you know, to actually be a 350 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: part of. MJ probably the last time he's played a 351 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: pickup game, and he certainly hasn't played one since then 352 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure. So to be a part of that 353 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: was was pretty cool. 354 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 3: I want to ask you, I mean, you you made 355 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 3: the move from England to go and play at Northwestern 356 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 3: in college, and I'm guessing my timing might be a 357 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 3: little off, but that was right around those last dance years, 358 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 3: maybe just afterwards. What was it like to get to 359 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 3: Chicago and be like, oh my god, there's a Bulls 360 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 3: town and people are nuts for the Bulls and Michael Jordan. 361 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 3: What was the timing in there exactly? And what was 362 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 3: that like for you? I mean, were you getting into 363 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 3: it too? Yeah? 364 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: So I got the in the fall of ninety seven, 365 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: so you know, right when they were kind of playing 366 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: their last season together. And you know, coming from England, 367 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: basketball wasn't again huge, huge sport heard of Michael Jordan, 368 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: but it's not something we would watch every day, you know, 369 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 1: if you were Chicago and you're tune in two or 370 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 1: three times a week to watch the Bulls during that run. 371 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: But that wasn't kind of the case for me. Obviously 372 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: knew who he was and really heard all the buzz 373 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: when I was when I was in college, but never 374 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: never got down to a game, you know, I think 375 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 1: it was really hard to get tickets and really didn't 376 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: you know, know too much about that run personally coming 377 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,160 Speaker 1: from England. But he got to meet MJ. I think 378 00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: probably probably started playing golf with him two thousand and four, 379 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: two thousand and five, maybe you know, some of the 380 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: Chicago contacts we had and his love of golf kind 381 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: of brought us together, and you know, we've become good 382 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: friends through golf. But it was still fascinating for me 383 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: to watch the Lost Dance because I hadn't really experienced 384 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 1: that before. I've never seen that that side of it 385 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 1: and never really lived through it. But it was cool 386 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: to see because you know, you realize MJ is so 387 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: competitive and you can see that obviously shining through immensely 388 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: during the last dance. But you know, it was it 389 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 1: was interesting just to see he's quite private. He's very private. 390 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 1: He doesn't like you know, he's not on social media. 391 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:44,199 Speaker 1: He's not telling you everywhere where he is everywhere. But 392 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: you can tell that about sixteen years of just being 393 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 1: at the top, being in the limelight for so long, 394 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: he just kind of wanted to go away from that, 395 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,440 Speaker 1: and you can can understand it, I suppose, I. 396 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 4: Mean playing basketball in that game had to be so surreal. 397 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 4: You mentioned that you an amazing experience obviously, I mean, 398 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 4: you got to number one in the world in golf. Like, 399 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 4: what other moments in your life did you have to 400 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 4: pinch yourself and say, hey, this is the life that 401 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 4: I'm living. I mean, you're playing in Europe crush here, 402 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 4: you're dominating golf. I mean, I certainly. I mean I 403 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:16,719 Speaker 4: can't imagine being in that spot. Is there any other 404 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 4: surreal moments or stories or times you had to pinch yourself? 405 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously for me and I'm getting the number 406 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: one is probably my greatest accomplished accomplishment in golf. And 407 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: I think golf has obviously allowed me to meet a 408 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,159 Speaker 1: lot of special people. You know, I've played with Tom Brady, 409 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: I've I've become good friends with Michael Jordan. I've played 410 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: golf with Peyton Manning, you know all the guys that 411 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,479 Speaker 1: are going to be playing next week on Sunday. So 412 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 1: you know, I've got to just experience some cool moments, 413 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: mostly through golf. And it's amazing how many athletes kind 414 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: of fall in who aren't golfers that love to go 415 00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 1: and play golf. I mean, it's just seems like a 416 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 1: sport that everyone kind of finishes, finishes, ends up like playing, 417 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: and yeah, you meet some cool people because of it. 418 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 3: Well, Luke, you mentioned it right there. We've got a 419 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 3: big match this week, and you know, it's nice to 420 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 3: see some live golf on television. We had some last 421 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 3: week with Rory and DJ pulling it out in the 422 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 3: end against Fowler and Wolf, and then this week I'm 423 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 3: a little more intrigued by this just because I don't 424 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 3: know what to expect. We've got Tiger Peyton Manning against 425 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 3: Phil and Tom Brady at medallist and you mentioned it 426 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:34,479 Speaker 3: right there. You played this past February with Peyton Manning 427 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 3: in the AT and T Pebble Beach program. You've played 428 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,199 Speaker 3: with Tom Brady in the bast Let's let's hear it 429 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 3: break down their games. What should we expect from these guys. 430 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: Well, I was extremely impressed with Tom Brady's game when 431 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: we played. Obviously he was playing with MJ against me 432 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 1: and Keegan, and I think they beat us pretty handily. 433 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: To be honest, they were chirping pretty hard. You know. 434 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: I think Tom Brady at that point had three Super Bowls, 435 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: so it's like, you know, we got nine championships. What 436 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: do you guys go? Uh, you know, all this kind 437 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 1: of stuff. And there was a lot of a lot 438 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: of banter going back and forward and Tom. Tom's game 439 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 1: was really good. I don't know how much he's played 440 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,880 Speaker 1: or practice since then, but really natural swing. He could 441 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: move the ball, he could hit it pretty far. I 442 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: played with I played with Payton a couple of times. 443 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 1: I played with him in a in a pro am 444 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: at Quel Hollow back in maybe two thousand and six, 445 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: and he was very impressive. Then I played him with 446 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 1: him at the Pebble Pebble Beach this year, and he's 447 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: a little He's gone through some some pretty serious injuries 448 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,360 Speaker 1: and operations and surgeries with the fusion in his neck, 449 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: and I think that's limited his athletic ability a little bit. 450 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: But he's still I mean, you can tell how competitive 451 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: he is, you know, when he has a when he 452 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: has a chance to make a net birdie or a 453 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 1: net eagle, he was grinding and you just never lose that. 454 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 3: You know. 455 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: People the sports people have been at the top of 456 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: their game so competitively. You know, they want to win, 457 00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: they want to excel, and it will be an inter game. 458 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: I think see we saw, you know, for the best 459 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: players in the world playing seminole, but that's pretty open 460 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: golf course. And now we've got medalists, which is gonna 461 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 1: be a little bit tighter with a couple of amateurs 462 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 1: players who who don't do this for a living. So 463 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: we're going to see a little bit different golf. Maybe 464 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: a few more bogies, a few more pat swings, but 465 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: I think the banter will be a little bit better. 466 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was was Manning obviously your teammates. But was 467 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 3: he whether you missed a fairway or mister Poe, was 468 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 3: he needling you? Was he needling some of the other 469 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 3: guys in your groups throughout the week? You know? And 470 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,959 Speaker 3: give us a good, good Peyton story from out there. 471 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 3: He's very it's very well facing on TV, and it 472 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 3: seems like it comes across with his golf game as well. 473 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, certainly the nationwide song was stuck in my head. 474 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,119 Speaker 1: But at the end of that week, literally every every 475 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 1: fan would sing it as he walked onto the green. 476 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 1: But he took it well. He's always he was in 477 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: good spirits and we got to play with his brother Eli, 478 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: so it was Eli as well. Was the other. What's 479 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 1: the other. So those two were needling pretty good, you know, 480 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: like brothers would. But he was pretty he was pretty 481 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: pretty good with his partner with me. 482 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, you got to give us. 483 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 4: A little more on the Peyton and Tom in terms 484 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 4: of strengths and weaknesses. I mean you mentioned Tom, you know, 485 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 4: a natural golf swing. He moves it obviously the next fusion. 486 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 4: You know, Peyton's out here in Colorado, have somebody to 487 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 4: play with him. I know he's been hitting a kind 488 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 4: of a lower drives, working very hard obviously for this match. 489 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,199 Speaker 4: Where where would you say that if you had to 490 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,199 Speaker 4: lay out the strengths of weaknesses reach game, how how 491 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 4: would you do that? 492 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 1: Well? Peyton has you know, he has a lot of 493 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: shot face that kind of taking it back and that 494 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: that can be problematic with short games. So I'd probably 495 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:44,640 Speaker 1: give the edge to to Tom on a short game. 496 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: Tom seemed to have a little bit more of a 497 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 1: neutral path and could kind of hit that soft pitch 498 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 1: shot a little bit nicer when I played with him, certainly, 499 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: you know, and I thought Tom probably has the advantage 500 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:01,719 Speaker 1: in terms of length of the tea. But Peyton, because 501 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: he takes a shot, he hits pretty much one shot. 502 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: He hits that draw occasion, Hill overreact and he'll push push, 503 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: push push to the right. But he's going to be 504 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: more consistent off the tea. I think Tom maybe have 505 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 1: a little bit more of a two way miss. So 506 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think it's gonna be pretty even. 507 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 1: But if I had to put my money, I would 508 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 1: probably well against Hard because Tiger is a member of Medalist, 509 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: he knows that place pretty well. But I would probably 510 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 1: I'm guessing what. I don't know what the odds are, 511 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 1: but I'm guessing Tiger and. 512 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:37,959 Speaker 3: Which seems wild to me. I mean, I know, two 513 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 3: to one. 514 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I would probably take Phil, Philip, Phil 515 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: and Brady. 516 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 3: The same thing we're saying last week. Anytime it's a 517 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 3: toss up, go with the underdog, go with the plus money. Yeah, 518 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 3: the underdog. 519 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 4: Even it didn't work last week, I still feel like 520 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 4: that was the right side. 521 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,959 Speaker 1: And rick I kind of called that Ricky would make 522 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 1: the most birdies. He loves that place, he loves Seminole, 523 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 1: He's won there a few times, remember the member guests stuff, 524 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 1: So that would have been a good prob there to 525 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 1: make sure that Ricky had had the most Boothies and 526 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 1: again I don't know if it's two to one. I'm 527 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: taking Phil and Phil and Brady. 528 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I love that. 529 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 4: So I've done some analysis on guys coming into January, 530 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 4: and that's one of the tougher times to predict golfers 531 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 4: is obviously there's this period of time where there's a 532 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,360 Speaker 4: little bit of russ. You know, someone like Charles How 533 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 4: he exceeds his normal range of outcomes more than any 534 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 4: golfer actually during that time. And I imagine just watching 535 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 4: the way Charles how goes about his career that he's 536 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 4: probably grinding as much as hendy golfer out there. Now 537 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 4: we have a unique circumstance where Keegan talked about it, 538 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 4: he had to, you know, go shag his own balls 539 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:45,719 Speaker 4: for a stretch of time, and you know things are 540 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 4: open now, but you know, different players have had different 541 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 4: setups or maybe you know, Tiger Woods obviously has golf 542 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 4: holes in his backyard and a simulator, and you know, 543 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 4: then there's other golfers who might not have had the 544 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 4: opportunity to be practicing as much. 545 00:25:58,160 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 3: Who what type of player. 546 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 4: Would you be looking for and how do you think 547 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 4: people are going to come out of you know, the 548 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 4: strange time where there hasn't been competitive. 549 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: Golf Jason Kendy for this guy, obviously my brother Caddy's 550 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: for most of the time. But Brendan Steel is another 551 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: one that seems to do well after long breaks. You know, 552 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: he's one napper a couple of times. You know that's 553 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: again that's after a little bit of a break. But 554 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: he always seems to do well with a break. I know, 555 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: it's just that freshness. You know. Some people grind so 556 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: much that they're thinking about so much stuff in their 557 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 1: swing that you know, a few weeks go by and 558 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: it just accumulates and they've got too many thoughts. When 559 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 1: if you've had a break and you come back fresh, 560 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: there's less thoughts. You can just kind of play a 561 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: little bit more in an instinct. So, but it's a 562 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 1: tough one again, Charles, How is that because he's grinding 563 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: or I'm guessing that is because he's grinding, or because 564 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 1: he just I don't know, he does well with a break, 565 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 1: but I don't know. It's again, it's a tough one. 566 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 1: But ultimately I think certain players it might be a 567 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: little bit of a light bulb kind of situation going 568 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: off in their heads where you know they love to 569 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 1: play week in week out, but it's not always pans 570 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 1: out to be the best results that having breaks. I mean, 571 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: you even look at Tiger in his prime me and 572 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: he played twenty weeks usually most when he was in 573 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: his prime, he would have a lot of time off 574 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:29,880 Speaker 1: between events. I think that rest that recovery, having time 575 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: to work on some stuff at home, where you're you're 576 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: not really worried about where the ball's going, you can 577 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 1: really make some good changes. You know, when you're on 578 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 1: when you're on the road, and when you're on playing tournaments, 579 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 1: you're just maintaining what you have. You can't really work 580 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:49,959 Speaker 1: on improvements become little things, but you're just playing to 581 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 1: play well, and sometimes having that time at home to 582 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: work on things can really pay dividends if if you're 583 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 1: really trying to make some changes in your swing. 584 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 3: Along the same lines, Luke sort of speculating about players, 585 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 3: which we do a lot of here, I'm gonna steal 586 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 3: a question from Peter that he has to Keegan last week, 587 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 3: because I really liked Keegan's answer as to which player 588 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 3: out there do you think is sort of underrated? Which 589 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 3: player do you think you've played with and seen him play, 590 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 3: and go, man, this this guy's really good. He's better 591 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 3: than his results have been. Keagan gave us Jamie love Mark. 592 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you a quick plug because Jamie love 593 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 3: Mark actually wrote a piece for us on the Action 594 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,919 Speaker 3: Network breaking down medalist hole by hole that is on 595 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 3: the website right now and you can go check that out. 596 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 3: So love Mark friend of the pod. He has absolutely 597 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:36,919 Speaker 3: got to watch. But I want to know if you 598 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 3: had a guy that you're thinking of, you know, not 599 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 3: John Rahm, not Colin Moricow. I mean, we all kind 600 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 3: of know that young guys are going to be really good. 601 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 3: But the guy you've played with you said, you know, 602 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 3: that guy strikes me as a player who keep an 603 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 3: eye on him. 604 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: Well. I played with Joel Doman I think it was 605 00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: last year Hilton Head, and he really really impressed me, uh, 606 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 1: the ease at which he kind of played the game. 607 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: He just looked very unflappable. He didn't waste much time, 608 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: he just kind of went about his business. And I 609 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: just kind of walked off the course thinking, Wow, you 610 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 1: know this is a guy that just sees the shot, 611 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: hits the shot, and just kind of gets on with it. 612 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: And you know, I had a lot of control of 613 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: his golf war around a very tight golf course. So 614 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: I liked his game. He obviously showed some signs last 615 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 1: year I think, some really good play. But he could 616 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: be someone to look at. That's good. I'm thinking thinking 617 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: off the top of my head. But yeah, I played. 618 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: I play a lot of golf with Jamie Lovemark. Obviously, 619 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: what Kegan said, we played today actually, and he's a 620 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,239 Speaker 1: he's a strong lad. He is really good touch, you know, 621 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: amazingly good touch around the greens, which you know is 622 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: really good for keeping momentum going, you know. And I think, yeah, 623 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: that was that's a good pick by Egan. 624 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 4: All Right, I got two last ones since for you. 625 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 4: One love Bears Club. It's an incredible place. I want 626 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 4: to know your low round. And then second twenty eleven, 627 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 4: I believe you were the money leader on both the 628 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 4: European Tour and the PGA Tour. I mean, you were 629 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 4: at the top of the world. Do you want a 630 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 4: bunch of money? Any fun purchases in twenty eleven for you, I'm. 631 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: Not too extravagant with my purchases. I have owned the 632 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: Ferrari I've sold that since then. But you know, I've 633 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: always wanted to create a nice place for my family. 634 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 1: So I have a very nice house in the Best Club, 635 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: and that's obviously my most expensive purchase, but you know, 636 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 1: having a good place for my family to hang out 637 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: is always important to me. And what's the. 638 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 4: Lowest round that you've seen? If it's not you, have 639 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 4: you seen anyone else go lower than your low score? 640 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 3: You don't wants to know if he has the course record, 641 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 3: there is what he's getting at. 642 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: Well, they added some Newt's a couple of years ago. 643 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: Before that, I'd shot six two and I think that 644 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: was maybe the course record, and then I think hegan 645 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: shot sixty one or sixty a little bit later. But 646 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: since they added new T's, it might be a college 647 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: player that wholes Wow the low round, maybe sixty three, 648 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: But I haven't, man, I've probably shot sixty five, sixty 649 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,959 Speaker 1: four since they put the new T's in, But I 650 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 1: don't think I have the course records, so something to 651 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: thank for It would. 652 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 3: Be such a tired dad joke, But I mean it's 653 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 3: so easy to just say, like Peter shot sixty three 654 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 3: and then he walked off the twelfth Green, But I'm 655 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 3: not going to go there. I'm not going to go 656 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 3: you know, yeah, I know, I've seen the game. 657 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: I've seen the game. 658 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 3: We will go over Riviera, Peter played with Tiger and 659 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 3: the program at Riviera, but we will go. 660 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: Over what happened on the on the second night at Riviera. 661 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: I want to hear, Oh, okay, then maybe we'll go 662 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: over Let's go. 663 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 4: Over everything Peter thirty nine and then uh fifty with 664 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 4: a couple of shanks.

So all 666 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 4: my dreams came true and my nightmares became reality. 667 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: So watching it wasn't the worst scene. 668 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, there there's video Luke and you know Kelly James 669 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 3: kJ who does some really good freestyle rapping out some 670 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 3: golf tournaments all year, and Kelly was singing rapping about 671 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 3: Peter as Peter's kind of in his pre shot routine, 672 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 3: gets over the mall and Kelly's still singing, and the 673 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 3: ball did not go toward the intended target. It gave 674 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 3: Kelly a little ambo during that song. I'm glad, You're glad. 675 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 3: Peter's smiling about it now and laughing about it. But oh, 676 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 3: I wanted to crawl in a hole. 677 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 4: I mean, you know, eight to ten handicap, played nine 678 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 4: point five out of ten on the front nine, which 679 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 4: you'd think would be worse than you should get comfortable, 680 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 4: and then. 681 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 1: The back nine. 682 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 4: I think I had one part on the back nine 683 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 4: and a couple of pickups to say the least. 684 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: So it was. It was a great experience, though Kelly 685 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: must have put you off with the wrapping. 686 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 4: It was the whole before. I mean it was, it 687 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 4: was already, it was straight down. But you're you're truly 688 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 4: Jay's talked about before. I don't want to be a 689 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 4: kiss ass or anything, but your tips are awesome, and 690 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 4: I think, you know, for someone like me, you know, 691 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 4: ten handicap guy, I certainly lose strokes around the green, 692 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 4: you know those thirty forty fifty yard pitch shots. You 693 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 4: see a ton of mistakes from from players like me, 694 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 4: and those have really helped my game and been playing 695 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 4: a decent amount of golf during these times. And my 696 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 4: index is a five O right now, which I certainly 697 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 4: do not want to play at and Jason is licking 698 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 4: as uh. 699 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 3: I just got above five. Oh, so I want you 700 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 3: right now, Peter right by the way you want me. 701 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 3: He's talking about the program. There least favorite pro am 702 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 3: partner to get Is it the guy who's a four 703 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 3: handicap and wants to play it back with you and 704 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 3: try to hit it by you all day and show 705 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 3: you how good he is. Is it the guy who 706 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 3: literally can't get it airborne, wants to hit every shot 707 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 3: anyway and try to finish up. Is it the guy 708 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 3: who's really worried about the scores, the guy who gets 709 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 3: like blind drunk by the front by the end of 710 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 3: the front nine by the turn. 711 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: And blind drunk guys by I think it's the person 712 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 1: who's on shot eleven and he's trying very hard to 713 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 1: hold a six foot for twelve, and you know the 714 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:12,279 Speaker 1: group behind is waiting and you're like just looking at 715 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 1: your watch thinking, oh my word, it's three hours and 716 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: we're only on whole nine. So that's the worst. 717 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 4: Tiger made it very clear. Uh the Nightbruary said, if 718 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 4: you're you know, pick up, And I mean I I 719 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 4: was picking up after two shots in a couple of holes, 720 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 4: but that was because some of embarrassment. So I can 721 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 4: only imagine how painful that would be just sitting there 722 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 4: watching someone grind. 723 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 1: Over an eleven or whatever. 724 00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 4: I mean, that's have some awareness. 725 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, you go as you get hold of you learn 726 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: some tricks and you just just pick up the ball 727 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 1: and you hand it to them and go. 728 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 4: That was good. 729 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 1: You can count that as a four. Next all next 730 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:48,840 Speaker 1: till I love it. 731 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 3: Luke, thanks so much. Before we go, Peter, I want 732 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:53,400 Speaker 3: to talk to you about the action we've got this weekend. 733 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 3: Luke Donald tells us he's played with both Peyton Manning 734 00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 3: and Tom Brady. Says, take Brady and the plus money 735 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:06,399 Speaker 3: alongside Phil Mickelson against Tiger and Peyton Manning the guy 736 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 3: playing on his home course, and Tiger you go with 737 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 3: luc or you're going against Luke. 738 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 1: I'm in a tough spot. 739 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 4: I have some friends with Peyton, and obviously he's a 740 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 4: big guy here in Colorado, so I want to root 741 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 4: for Peyton and Tiger has been you know icon, but yeah, 742 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 4: the better in me, I want the plus money. I 743 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 4: think that that's too too steep of a price, even 744 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,919 Speaker 4: with the course knowledge for Tiger. And I know I've heard, 745 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:30,760 Speaker 4: you know, just even seeing on Twitter day, like Phil's 746 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 4: playing thirty six. Like Phil this is like his super Bowl. 747 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:34,879 Speaker 3: He loved the match. 748 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm sure Tiger wanted to win, but I 749 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,840 Speaker 4: don't think he's grinding as hard as it would be, 750 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 4: you know, for a major or something. So I think 751 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 4: I like Phil and Brady. 752 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 3: Here, I can tell you I've only spoke with one 753 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 3: person who has played with both me, Manning and Brady 754 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 3: and has given us insight.
