Speaker 1: The Masters a tradition like any other, has a champion,

24
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: and he's not a new champion because he wanted a

25
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: couple of years ago. Scottie Scheffler wins a second green

26
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: jacket in three years and has established himself as the

27
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: best player on the planet by a wide, wide margin.

28
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: So Scottie Scheffler. The tournament got interesting there on the

29
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: end of the front nine on Sunday, and then Scotty

30
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: just put the pedal of the metal and some other

31
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: guys hitting the water and had some bad shots, made

32
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: some doubles, and he said, made the peace be with

33
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: you because I'm going to dominate. And that's what he did.

34
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: And he's the Master's Champion, so we'll dive into him.

35
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 1: Ludwig is everything you want. I mean, the drafts right

36
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 1: around the corner. You talk about a first round number

37
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: one overall pick who immediately pops. What a rocket ship.

38
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: Some thoughts on tiger Woods because I saw a lot

39
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: of people kind of talking shit like why is he

40
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: doing this? He sucks, he shoots forty two on Saturday,

41
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: just go home. I actually think the opposite, especially with

42
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: Charlie being front and center. What a great life lesson

43
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: for his son. And then we will just hit on

44
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: some other things golf wise that stood out to me

45
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: over the weekend. Bryson he has been missed, fern Lundquist

46
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: heads off into retirement, a legend, and what just great week.

47
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 1: Other than that, the plan will be we will have

48
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: some football podcast this week, so we'll be doing some

49
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 1: draft talk. If you want to get in the uh,

50
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 1: We're gonna start doing golf mail bags. I have an

51
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,760

Speaker 1: gol pod, fire in those dms. You can ask anything

53
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: and I'll start integrating those in on the golf podcast.

54
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 1: Obviously we do it on the football That is just

55
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 1: my main instagram. We do the Middlecoff mail bag, but

81
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,160
Speaker 1: think the thing And I remember Colin used to say

82
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: this forever, and it used to bother me because I

83
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: remember listening to him when I was at Fresno State,

84
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: and I like, root it for the little guy. Not

85
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 1: that we had a chance, but Boise states like, no

86
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 1: one really wants that. They want the best of the

87
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 1: best playing each other. And as I've done this and

88
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: as I worked in pro sports, I kind of understand

89
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 1: it now from a rating standpoint, from a needle moving standpoint,

90
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 1: it's always more important in terms of more people interested.

91
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 1: Beside the Super Bowl, where two pee wee football teams

92
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: could play each other and everyone would watch, that's just

93
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 1: not true for other sports. It's why Tiger in the

94
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: sport of golf changed everything for everyone, and golf has

95
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: struggled post you know, the dominance of Tiger definitely to

96
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 1: get the same amount of people paying attention, even though

97
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: more people than ever actually play the game of golf.

98
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: And the reason so many people historically have watched football, basketball, baseball,

99
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: because even if you don't play in high school, at

100
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,359
Speaker 1: one point time you played little league or peewee football

101
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 1: or eighth grade basketball. And the more people that play

102
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: something the more inclined you are to just pay attention.

103
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 1: This is the thing about the Patriots forever, is like

104
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: everyone paid attention to them because like, can you beat

105
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and most people could not seeing it now

106
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 1: with Patrick Mahomes and even they were underdogs in the

107
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: AFC and Super Bowl. AFC Championship against the Ravens and

108
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl against the forty nine ers. But anytime

109
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: you are just a heavy favorite and you show up,

110
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: whether it's a team event, whether it's a tennis tournament,

111
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: all those years with Federer, Nadal and all those type guys,

112
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,159
Speaker 1: Pete Sampras back in the day, it's like, bring it

113
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 1: fucking on. Everyone's gunning for you. Everyone is looking at you.

114
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: And Tiger personified this more than anyone, and he won

115
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: more than anyone, you know. And when he showed up

116
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 1: in a major, he was always the favorite, and he

117
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 1: won fifteen of them, and in his prime was winning

118
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: them all the time. So Scotti Scheffer coming in to

119
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: the Masters, granted he won this tournament two years ago,

120
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: it's like, listen, I know he's the best player in

121
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 1: the world. He's an incredible talent. He's an easy guy

122
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: to root for. Nice guy, everyone gets along with him,

123
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: very positive individual. It's like, is it really just gonna

124
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: be this easy? Is it really just he's just going

125
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: to show up. Wins Thursday and Friday were outrageous. I

126
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: can't even imagine how difficult that course was, and it

127
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: annihilated everybody. And you looked up and there he was.

128
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: You're like, how is this guy not going to win

129
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: the tournament? And even on Saturday he doubles ten and

130
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 1: you're like, is he really about to just fall apart?

131
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: Two holes later he eagles thirteen, and let's face it,

132
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: the rest is kind of history. Today he had a moment.

133
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 1: You know, Max was hanging in there, Ludwig was right there.

134
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: Morikawa had the lead for a split second, and then

135
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: starting on whole nine, he birdies six of the next

136
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: eight holes. He is uncomfortable with and I completely understand it.

137
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: Just like a lot of people in Gulf are comparing

138
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: him to Tiger Woods. We are never going to see

139
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: another Tiger Woods. No matter how great Scotti Scheffler is,

140
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: He's not winning eighty plus times and fifteen majors. Could

141
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: he win six or seven? You know, how many can

142
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: he win? Now? The Grand Slam? I think is going

143
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: to be a little difficult for those of you that

144
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 1: come to this podcast for football and just enjoy me,

145
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 1: so you don't know that much about golf. That'd be

146
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: winning every major. It's why we keep talking about the

147
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: career Grand Slam. It's what Rory's been trying to do

148
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: with the Masters, and it's clear he's not ever close.

149
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: And I apologize forgiving out that pick. I lost money

150
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: never betting on that individual to win this tournament ever again,

151
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 1: learn my lesson. Too many times I'm out, I'm out.

152
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: But can this guy win? Can he have like a

153
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: Phil Mickelson level career when it's like Scotti Scheffer won

154
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 1: seven eight majors. Now, one stupid talking point this week

155
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: because I think a couple of weeks ago, within the

156
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 1: last month, his wife is pregnant and currently she's I

157
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: think around eight months. I've never had a baby, pretty

158
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: sure it takes give or take nine months.

159
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:00,679
Speaker 2: Now.

160
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 1: Obviously things can change, people come premature. Sometimes it lasts

161
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 1: a little bit longer. But as he kept saying, like guys,

162
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 1: I said, I would leave if she is going to

163
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,199
Speaker 1: have the baby. I've never had one. See the birth

164
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: of my first child, but she's not even close. She

165
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: hasn't shown any signs, so let's stop talking about this,

166
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 1: and it's all been all over social media. He did

167
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,079
Speaker 1: not have to leave because again she's not close to

168
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: having a baby yet relative to the next couple weeks. Though,

169
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 1: for the Grand Slam this year, I'd go, let's just

170
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: say he has a baby in the next two weeks,

171
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: probably not a lot of sleep, probably not a lot

172
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 1: of practice. So I'm not often for the PGA, but

173
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 1: you could see how that could derail that event, and

174
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: then you get back on for the US Open and

175
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 1: the Open Championship. I'm not even sure where that is.

176
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: The US Open this year is at Pinehurst, but I

177
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,839
Speaker 1: would say it feels like a disappointment right now. I'm

178
00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 1: giving him a just a mulligan on the next here

179
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: in a month, just because if we assume the baby's

180
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: gonna come, it's gonna derail his life. Who knows, Maybe

181
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: he shows up that week limited sleep, not much practice,

182
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 1: doesn't win it. It would be stunning the way the

183
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: guy is playing. If he then doesn't win one of

184
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: the next two. I mean, the Player of the Year

185
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: is a rap. Like it's over. We don't even need

186
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: to talk about it anymore. He just won the Players

187
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: Championship and the Masters. I don't see how any other

188
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 1: individual on the PGA Tour could overcome his credentials so

189
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: far this year we're not even to summer yet. Think

190
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: about that, the amount of money he's making right now.

191
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: Start him now. He's never gonna be as famous as

192
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 1: Tiger Woods or even Phil Mickelson. But I always push

193
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: back when people say they used to play against plumbers

194
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 1: and shitty players, maybe in like the fifties and the sixties.

195
00:10:56,120 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: But I'm of the belief that Arnold Palmer or Jack

196
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: Nicholas or Lee Trevino would have been good in any era.

197
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: Baby Ruth's one of those takes. I go, yeah, I

198
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: don't know, fat guy, I don't know if he'd be

199
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 1: as good. I'd argue with Chris Russo on that, But

200
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: once you get to like the fifties and the sixties,

201
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: I do defend like Nickey Mandle would have been good.

202
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 1: Now Bill Russell could have played. Now, I might have

203
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: learned a three pointer, but I bet Bill Russell have

204
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: been pretty good. But right around that Tiger start in

205
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 1: the late nineties early two thousands, Phil Ernie it is

206
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: way deeper now, and still there are high end guys.

207
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: It is very, very difficult to win on a weekly basis,

208
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: and this guy as the betting favorite, and clear everyone's

209
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 1: like he's the best player. I don't even know what

210
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 1: world golf rankings mean. They don't mean much anymore, right

211
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: because of live and it's impossible to quantify live. But

212
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: clearly they have elite players, right, Bryson is an elite player.

213
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 1: He's won a major, he won the USAM, He's won

214
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: a ton of times on the PGA Tour. Cam Smith

215
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 1: won the Open. Elite player DJ no longer cares when

216
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: we'll get into him in a minute, but one like

217
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 1: twenty plus times multiple maybe, like they have elite talent Koepka.

218
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: We saw him win a major last year. It's hard

219
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: to quantify it. So it's all out of whack. The

220
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 1: world golf rankings where you rank, mean nothing to me.

221
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 1: And the best part about this, we don't have that

222
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 1: in football. It doesn't exist. What we've been saying for

223
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: five years, Patrick Mahons' best quarterback and everyone just universally agrees.

224
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 1: And I think that's where we're at with Scotti. Schefler. Yeah,

225
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: he's number one in these stupid rankings that don't even

226
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 1: mean anything anymore. But he is the best player, and

227
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:38,199
Speaker 1: the gap now is starting to widen. Right Rory technically

228
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: is viewed as one of the best players. They aren't

229
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: even in the same universe. John Rahm, who this week,

230
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 1: every time they showed him looked like me or you

231
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 1: about to helicopter one of our clubs. He was pissed

232
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,319
Speaker 1: off all week And one thing he mentioned over the

233
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,200
Speaker 1: last couple weeks is he wants live to go to

234
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:03,199
Speaker 1: seventy two olds. Why because I think clearly he doesn't

235
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: feel ready. Iron sharpens iron. Bryce's kind of one of

236
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,319
Speaker 1: these unique guys, kind of a loner, weirdo, no one

237
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 1: likes him. Can just practice on his own and be fine.

238
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: I wonder if it's really impacting John rom Now. I

239
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: don't blame any of those guys for taking the money.

240
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: I truly don't. Capitalists would have taken the money as well,

241
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: but there's no way for a guy like that who

242
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 1: like the grind to be a sharp We're on the

243
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: flip side, Scottie. Just like John Rahm a year ago,

244
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: both two of the best players, two elite guys, just

245
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,839
Speaker 1: keeps sharpening that iron. And you see a guy now

246
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 1: who keeps getting better because he keeps getting to practice

247
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: his craft even though the fields aren't as good on

248
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 1: a weekly basis, because all those guys play for Greg

249
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 1: Norman who was roaming around the Masters. But he gets

250
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: to really hone his skills and he gets to stay

251
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: dialed in. Then when he gets to Augusta and the

252
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 1: conditions get outrageous, I mean, sure, where were all in

253
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 1: text change? Could we two man scramble break one hundred?

254
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 1: How difficult that course is? All we ever want for

255
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 1: majors to be really hard, And Scotty now shows up

256
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: when the majors are really hard and dominates boat races

257
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,319
Speaker 1: the field when it's all said and done, because that's

258
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 1: what he did. Colin Morikawa, multiple Majors, Ludwig shooting Star Holma,

259
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: look like a guy like God, is he going to

260
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 1: win the Masters? You look up? It ain't even close.

261
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 1: And this is what Brady did. Forever, everyone's coming for you,

262
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: every single person. Everyone is thinking about you. How do

263
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: I beat this guy? And the answer is you can't.

264
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: You need him to screw up, cause your best and

265
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: his best he's beating you. Honestly, what we're starting to

266
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: see his like B plus game is still beating the

267
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: overwhelming majority of guys, and they would have to be

268
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 1: perfect to beat him with his B plus game. That's

269
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: what greatness is, and that's what we're starting to see

270
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: in Scotty Scheffler. He's gonna I mean, he's got a

271
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: long way to go. He's only twenty seven years old,

272
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 1: but I think it's pretty clear he's got a chance

273
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 1: to be one of the great American players of all

274
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: time because anytime you get the ball rolling early, you

275
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: can rack them up. Now, one thing in golf, things change,

276
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: right you get to a point in your career, something

277
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 1: just gets weird and you start playing poorly. See with

278
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 1: Justin Thomas right now, Jordan Speith fell off a cliff.

279
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 1: So you got to take advantage when you are playing well.

280
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: It's why a lot of like multiple time Majors major

281
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 1: winners win them in the same like two year span

282
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: right now. Great players can rack up like three or

283
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 1: four Majors over like a three or four year st span.

284
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: And to me, that's what Scotti Scheffler feels poised to

285
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: do already. Giving him a little bit of I'm not

286
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: even gonna count the PGA if he's not as Sharper

287
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: doesn't win because of the baby that's coming and how

288
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: that's going to just derail his just golfing life. But

289
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: the US Open and the Open, I think it would

290
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: be stunning, I mean stunning for him not to win

291
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: one of those two tournaments. So congrats to Scotti Scheffler

292
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: already I don't have the stat in front of me,

293
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 1: but joins a special group of individuals that have won

294
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 1: that tournament multiple times. We have a lot of one

295
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: off guys, right, Hell, we've seen a lot in my

296
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: adult life, the Sergio's, the Patrick Reid's, Trevor Illmoman now

297
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: takes over for fall though, Right, We've seen a lot

298
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 1: of Danny Willett. We've seen a lot of those guys.

299
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: How many guys can rattle off multiple like the guys

300
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: obviously in my era, Tiger Phil, I mean, that's Scottie.

301
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: It's not a long list. So even Jordan that came

302
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 1: really close to winning US that couldn't get it done,

303
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: and now it feels like he never will. So he

304
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: enters a special class of American players. Man, that was dominance.

305
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: I don't know what else to say, beside man, what

306
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: a special player? Speaking about like the drafts right around

307
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,440
Speaker 1: the corner. I'm a sucker for the draft. I love

308
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,199
Speaker 1: elite young talents coming out of college and forever. On

309
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: the PGA Tour, it was a lot like Major League Baseball.

310
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 1: Just because you were a great player, national champion, highest

311
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 1: ranked amateur, it didn't matter. You still had to go

312
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,400
Speaker 1: to the quote unquote minor leagues. When I was a kid,

313
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: it was like the Nike Tour. It's now the corn

314
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 1: Ferry Tour. It's been named a million things. And Max

315
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 1: Homo went there, Scottie Scheffler went there, they all go there. Well,

316
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 1: because of live, the PGA Tour developed this thing called

317
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 1: PGA Tour you that basically gave exemptions into their top

318
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:56,719
Speaker 1: college players. And if you are the number one college player,

319
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 1: which would be the equivalent of being like the number

320
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 1: one pick in the draft, you don't have to go

321
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: to the corn Ferry Tour. You go right to the

322
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: big leagues. You go right to the PGA Tour. Remember

323
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 1: when Kyler Murray, it was like what should he do?

324
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: Billy Bean took up ninth overall, It's like, well, he

325
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 1: might be the number one pick in the NFL draft.

326
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 1: He could have been the eighteenth pick in the NFL draft.

327
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 1: And you go to the NFL. You know why, you

328
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 1: go right to the show. I never have to ride

329
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 1: a bus and play in nobody's watching. Nobody knows where

330
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 1: this is because minor league baseball is not Triple A baseball.

331
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: You start in rookie ball in Single A, playing in

332
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 1: front of nobody in games that no one cares about,

333
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: and clearly it's really hard. Just like Golf's minor leagues

334
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: corn Ferry Tour is very, very competitive. Ludvig didn't have

335
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: to do that. But I'd also argue that Ludvig has

336
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:57,159
Speaker 1: been a pro for ten months. I know some people

337
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: you know with Adidas who I've been on Ludwig for

338
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 1: a while there, and they are as big of a

339
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: believers in him as anybody, and they're like, Jesus, this

340
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: was incredible. I was high on him this week, had

341
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: a Top twenty battle. I thought he would be good.

342
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: What he did these last couple of days was absurd.

343
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: He's not as good as Scottish Scheffer right does not

344
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: have just hasn't gone through the wars. But to be

345
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 1: that good not in your first Masters. This was his

346
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: first major, and like I said, I'll never forget. In

347
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, I went to the US Open when it

348
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 1: was a pebble beech, just as a fan, drinking beers,

349
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,159
Speaker 1: hanging out, and I stood next to DJ and I

350
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 1: was like, this guy looks like Ben Roethlisberger. He's not

351
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 1: as big as Ben Roethlisberger in terms of way, but

352
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:48,679
Speaker 1: he's six ' five two thirty five just thick. I

353
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: was like, this guy looks like an athlete. Most of

354
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: these guys even as much more athletic, you know, in

355
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 1: professional golf than it was thirty forty years ago. He

356
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 1: didn't look like anyone else. Now. Blood is not as

357
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: thick as him. He's also fifteen plus years younger, but

358
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 1: he looks much more just standing there and walking down

359
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: the fairway like an NFL player. I remember going to

360
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 1: the pro am and seeing like Matt Ryan and guys

361
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 1: like that, like kind of what he looks like. And listen,

362
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,919
Speaker 1: I'm a decent player, you know, can break eighty, but

363
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,160
Speaker 1: I'm five nine, five ten. You know, when you are

364
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: six three sixty four a little easier to play, you know,

365
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 1: Tiger six to one phills six three and a half, Like,

366
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: it's just you can hit a little farther swing looks

367
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 1: a little smoother. So I don't know what else to

368
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: say beside this guy's a rocket ship. I looked immediately

369
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: at DraftKings as like, what are his odds for the

370
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: next major? Because the PGA Championships at Valhalla, I looked

371
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: at like the eleventh hole and it was twenty to one,

372
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,199
Speaker 1: And when I just looked before I hopped on here

373
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,119
Speaker 1: was eighteen to one. I would imagine some sharp money

374
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 1: came in on that guy because he feels it's hard

375
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,719
Speaker 1: in golf. It would be studying if he doesn't win

376
00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: a major relatively quickly. Now, I'd say this tournament, the Masters,

377
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 1: does set up for a skill set. Hits the ball, high,

378
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 1: hits a draw. Putting has always been somewhat of a

379
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: question mark. But I thought he puttied pretty damn well.

380
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: A couple if he chips, but that'll happen. It's the Masters.

381
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: It's not easy. But if you could play that well

382
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: playing in those groups today, I mean was the second

383
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: last group and he was fucking awesome. So I don't

384
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: know what else say besides like, that's what a blue

385
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 1: chip talent looks like the way in the golf circles

386
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 1: they talk about Ludwig is the way that everyone in

387
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 1: Chicago hopes. They're talking about kleb in like November, like

388
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: we told everybody he was a star, and then all

389
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's like he's a Locke Rookie of

390
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,919
Speaker 1: the year. That's all you hope with. And the thing

391
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 1: in golf is you never knew. Max Homo won the

392
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 1: national championship as an individual and as a team at

393
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 1: Cal was a PAC twelve champion as well, Like he

394
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 1: won the Pac twelve championship, and then he wasn't that

395
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 1: good on the PGA Tour for a long time and

396
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 1: didn't really hit his stride till thirty. And he's not alone.

397
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 1: A lot of guys are like that. So not everyone's

398
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 1: Scottie or Colin Moore Cowa. They get on the PGA

399
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 1: Tour and they immediately have success. It's very difficult. It's

400
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 1: to me, it always much closely parallels baseball than it

401
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 1: does football or basketball. Usually, if you're the top pick

402
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 1: Zion Williamson, unless you're lazy or can't put down, you know,

403
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,360
Speaker 1: a cheeseburger like you're good. I watched Zion the other

404
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 1: night playing the Kings or playing the Warriors. He looked

405
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,400
Speaker 1: pretty good. Pretty good to me. Looks like he's taking

406
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 1: a little more seriously elite talent Anthony Davis. Guys that

407
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,199
Speaker 1: get drafted really high in baseball all the time, you

408
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: never see the top five pick ever flame out, never

409
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,959
Speaker 1: even get to the big leagues. Ludwig showed up, immediately dominates,

410
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 1: He's already won on the tour. He I mean, honestly,

411
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 1: he was right there with Scott until he hit in

412
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 1: the water. And today, like all those guys kind of

413
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 1: screwed up all of them more. Cowa blew it on

414
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: nine doubles tournament over, Ludwig hits in the water on

415
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 1: a tournament over, Max Homa hits it in the bush

416
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 1: twelve tournament over. And after those three things happened, the

417
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 1: Masters was kind of a rap. And back to Scott,

418
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: he kind of because the guy with elite, if it

419
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: had been more of a random player guy, we didn't believe.

420
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 1: You're like, this guy's got a hold on for his ass.

421
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,400
Speaker 1: There wasn't a soul that pays attention to sports, let

422
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: alone golf. That was like, oh, Scotty's gonna win. And

423
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: that's how fast it happens. Because the margin ferrer in

424
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 1: these major tournaments, especially at Augusta, you can't make a mistake.

425
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: I give Ludwig more of a pass than the other

426
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 1: two guys, given that they've been through the ringer. He

427
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,880
Speaker 1: got aggressive and it ultimately didn't cost him the tournament.

428
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 1: But it would have been a lot more interesting if

429
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:51,159
Speaker 1: he just pars instead of doubles. But what a remarkable

430
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: showing for a guy that has literally been a professional

431
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: for ten months. At this time last year, he was

432
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,160
Speaker 1: playing in college. I live right down the street from

433
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: where they held the college national Championships grey Hawk. They

434
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 1: played it in May. He was in it, so less

435
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 1: than a year ago he was playing right down the

436
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:17,199
Speaker 1: street for me in his Texas Tech uniform. That's crazy.

437
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,920
Speaker 1: That does not happen in golf. That's like Tiger Phil

438
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: level just quickly transition. We don't see that ever, so

439
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,359
Speaker 1: awesome to watch. The other thing I wrote down is

440
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 1: it is just fun and golf sikos we root for

441
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,879
Speaker 1: really hard and the players always push back. You know,

442
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,400
Speaker 1: when things get outrageous at a US Open, it's too

443
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 1: hard or they've lost the course or this isn't fair,

444
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: Like I honestly, we've seen enough birdies and eagles in

445
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 1: our life for one time or two times a year

446
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: in a major championship. To just see carnage NonStop is

447
00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: very entertaining. Like I love an eagle as much as anybody.

448
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,120
Speaker 1: They're really fun to watch, especially if you have money

449
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,679
Speaker 1: on a player. But there's nothing quite like watching a

450
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: guy have to struggle for parr the best players in

451
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 1: the lead. That leads to the ebb and flow of

452
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 1: a leaderboard. And I thought Augusta, obviously it played. I

453
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 1: haven't seen the status yet, but it has to be

454
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: one of the hardest, you know, in terms of the

455
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: scores in a long long time. There weren't even that

456
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,880
Speaker 1: many guys under par. Part of it was the first

457
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 1: couple of days were you know, felt like eighty mile

458
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 1: an hour wins on television. But the greens were rock hard,

459
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:41,119
Speaker 1: these guys who if you look at the leader board,

460
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: it was just the best iron players, Marikawa, Homa, Ludwig Fleetwood,

461
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: I mean, and these guys were struggling, and I mean

462
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:55,400
Speaker 1: struggling to rattle off like six seven straight pars. That's fun.

463
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: To watch, like, I never feel bad when these guys

464
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: and one of the most famous videos of all time

465
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 1: I think it was the US Open. I forget the course,

466
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 1: but Phil putted it by and it was running downhill

467
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:09,880
Speaker 1: and he just took his putter and hit it while

468
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: I was moving because he was so mad, like, I'm sorry.

469
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 1: We kind of liked that. We kind of enjoy that.

470
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 1: I think it's fun viewing when it is chaos in

471
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 1: terms of the difficulty, where it almost feels unfair. I'm

472
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: cool with unfair. And listen, anyone that's listening to this

473
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 1: that plays golf, it's really hard. So I understand that

474
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 1: the highest levels go. It's hard enough as it is,

475
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 1: but I'd argue, these guys are so good now the

476
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 1: equipment is so unfair that.

477
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 2: Yeah.

478
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 1: Sometimes if it's like, yeah, this is a pin that

479
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 1: you literally can't get it within twenty feet, I'm cool

480
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 1: with it. It's a putt that if it's downhill, it's going

481
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,159
Speaker 1: to be thirty feet by, well, then don't hit it

482
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: above the hole. Right, this is a fair way that

483
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 1: I can't hold the fairway, well, tough shit. And that's

484
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: what I thought all weekend long. That's at least from

485
00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,119
Speaker 1: a viewer, from what I can remember, one of the

486
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,679
Speaker 1: more difficult masters we've ever seen. I got a hit

487
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,679
Speaker 1: on Eldrick Tiger Woods because I saw a lot of

488
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 1: people and again these are just you know, internet trolls

489
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 1: and not necessarily people that cover golf. But I think

490
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 1: universally people are like, why is Tiger even doing this?

491
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 1: What is the point of barely being able to break

492
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:23,359
Speaker 1: eighty and yesterday did not. He shot eighty two. Today

493
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: he shot seventy seven. It was a struggle for him.

494
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: On the weekend, he finished dead last of every single

495
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,159
Speaker 1: person that made the cut. I actually think it's an

496
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 1: inspiring performance when you think about a guy like Dustin Johnson,

497
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 1: who is easily one of the best players of his generation,

498
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,360
Speaker 1: had won over twenty times, won a tournament every year

499
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 1: for like ten straight years, multiple majors. Probably should have

500
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 1: had four or five. He said on full swing. Yeah,

501
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,120
Speaker 1: I'm kind of over it. I don't even practice that hard.

502
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,959
Speaker 1: Not verbatim, but he essentially said that he shot seventy

503
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 1: nine to seventy eight this year. Freddy Couples, who was

504
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 1: sixty five with a bad back beat Dustin Johnson, I

505
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: have no problem Dustin Johnson taking one hundred and fifty

506
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 1: million and not working that hard. We have the discussion

507
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: on Fugazi Friday about work life balance. Work life balance

508
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 1: is an individual you know, mantra, thing that you care about.

509
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: It's something that every single person is different, right, how

510
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: you approach your life, what your priorities are. Like, I

511
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,719
Speaker 1: worry about myself my family. You should too. I have

512
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,360
Speaker 1: no problem with anyone's like, I'm not that into this anymore.

513
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:34,640
Speaker 1: Totally understand. But Tiger Woods, let's use this as an example.

514
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 1: Dustin got one hundred and fifty million from Saudi Arabia.

515
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 1: Tiger Woods was probably worth five six x that fifteen

516
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 1: years ago. He is insanely wealthy. Coward told a story

517
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: the other day when we were doing our football show.

518
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 1: I think it might have been last Saturday or two

519
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 1: Saturdays ago, that he had a financial guy tell him

520
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: that he was putting like fifteen twenty million dollars in

521
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: a year in the market twenty plus years ago. I mean,

522
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: there's a chance Tiger has just a portfolio that's worth

523
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 1: seven eight hundred million separate from other money. Tiger has

524
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 1: been insanely wealthy for twenty plus years and you have

525
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 1: a guy with a fuse back, a fused ankle, body

526
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 1: parts that probably barely work, trying his ass off. And

527
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 1: as someone whose dad taught me, my dad's long gone. Now,

528
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: two things that really stick out to me, and I

529
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: think about a lot, like two life lessons that he

530
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: hammered home be orly and if he starts something, don't

531
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 1: quit it. Tiger Wood's son, I think has been there

532
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 1: the whole time, but he was all over TV these

533
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 1: last couple of days. Can you imagine the life lesson

534
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 1: that he just taught him? Remember Tom Brady saying this

535
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 1: a while back, like one thing that he worries about

536
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 1: is how do I teach my kids humility and to

537
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 1: be kind of normal people with the life they lead.

538
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: And it's difficult, right, easy to teach someone how hard

539
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: work matters and to keep grinding when you don't have much,

540
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: like we work for everything we have. When you have

541
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 1: everything and you've never seen a commercial airline, you've never

542
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 1: flown commercial your entire life, right, everything in your life

543
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: is free. You live in a palace, you have several homes.

544
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: I don't even I can't relate to that. I bet

545
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: most people listening cannot relate to that. It's very, very

546
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 1: difficult to raise a child in that environment, to grow

547
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: up with the same head on your shoulders. Obviously Tiger

548
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: made some mistakes, but just in terms of work ethic

549
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 1: and drive and desire, think of what Charlie watching his

550
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: dad who can barely fucking walk. Because a lot of

551
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 1: people thought like, is Tiger even gonna play Sunday? I

552
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 1: thought that, like, just go home. I'm not going home.

553
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: I'm not tapping out because that's not what we do

554
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 1: in this family. That's not what I do. That's not

555
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 1: what I stand for. Yeah, some of those live guys

556
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 1: tapped out, they're over it. I never did. I didn't

557
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: show up. He's never gonna win again. He's clearly never

558
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 1: winning a major. He can't play four rounds of good golf.

559
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 1: He could barely play two. But if you can't watch

560
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 1: that and go god, I hope I have that drive.

561
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 1: I say it all the time. I have a lot

562
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 1: of admiration for super super rich people that still are

563
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:23,239
Speaker 1: very driven and work very hard. So I think about myself, like,

564
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 1: if I had one hundred million dollars in the bank,

565
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: when I podcast as much when I work, what would

566
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 1: I do I hope I would never know until you

567
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 1: put in that situation. Tiger Woods had one hundred million

568
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 1: dollars when he was twenty three, and every story about

569
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 1: the guy was like he'd win a major next day.

570
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 1: He was at the golf course at seven am, working

571
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 1: after he'd already worked out at five am. And I

572
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: think that's the type of things that you instill in

573
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 1: the things that I admire about athletes, the work ethic

574
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: and listen, we can make fun of Tiger's results all

575
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 1: we want, like he's not any good anymore, he's old,

576
00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 1: he never plays, he can barely walk. But you can't

577
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: diminish a guy at this point in time in his

578
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 1: career that just refuses to tap out because he's too proud.

579
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 1: He's got too much. I would say competitive pride. Like

580
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to say I was inspired by his weekend,

581
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 1: but I really appreciated it as someone whose dad's not around.

582
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 1: What that would mean just if you're Charlie watching your dad, Like, yeah,

583
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 1: I might suck now relative to these top guys, but

584
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 1: we ain't fucking flying home early if I can still play.

585
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 1: Some other things that I saw from the weekend, it

586
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: just stood out one thing Live really did to the

587
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 1: PGA Tour, and we've talked about this over and over.

588
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: It kind of gets exhausting. Was take away the villains

589
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:46,959
Speaker 1: and guys that just people had like emotional reactions too,

590
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 1: like gotta hate Patrick Reed. Bryson's a weirdo, right Kepka.

591
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 1: He's an asshole. And the PGA Tours is full of

592
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 1: nice guys and anytime you get these majors, they all

593
00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 1: get back together. And I was thinking about this. I

594
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 1: think if you had a draft, if you were the

595
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 1: PGA Tour of guys you could bring back. I think

596
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 1: Rom would be number one because he's their best player.

597
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 1: I think Bryson might be number two. He's a content machine.

598
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: He's always doing insane things. The other day he picked

599
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: up one of those stands that like tell you where

600
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 1: to walk because it was in his way and held

601
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 1: it and walked it down the fairway because he was

602
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 1: trying to hit around it. He is just fun to

603
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: watch because crazy things happen and nobody swings like him.

604
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 1: All his clubs are the same length he hits it.

605
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 1: When he hits a good three hundred and forty fifty yards,

606
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 1: he's swinging out of his shoes. He's missed. Maybe he's

607
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 1: a weirdo. Maybe not a lot of guys like him.

608
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: And I get why he left. They offered him nine figures,

609
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 1: but he's missed. And here's the thing about Bryson, Like

610
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 1: he's really good and unlike rom who I do think

611
00:33:56,560 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 1: likes the competitive hamster wheel of professional goalf just keeps

612
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: in the loop, you keep playing. Bryce's kind of unique,

613
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 1: like I do believe clearly he doesn't have that many

614
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 1: friends on the PGA tour. Many would say he doesn't

615
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: have any. He can just kind of grind on his own.

616
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 1: And here's what I'll say about Bryson. I know he

617
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,400
Speaker 1: takes golf really seriously, and I know he tries really hard.

618
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:22,280
Speaker 1: So some of these live guys, Like I respect DJ's talent,

619
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 1: but I have a hard time just respecting a guy.

620
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 1: It's like I don't even care anymore. Even if he

621
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:30,799
Speaker 1: doesn't care, it's his progative, it's his life. Like I

622
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: know Bryson cares like I know he cares, and as

623
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 1: you watched him do all sorts of crazy things these

624
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: last three or four days, he just missed as someone

625
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 1: that we get to watch. If you like watching professional

626
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,520
Speaker 1: golf because, like I said, and it's well documented, nobody's

627
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 1: watching live. Greg Norman was walking around some just incredible

628
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 1: pictures of the shark. Who say what you ever want,

629
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 1: say whatever you want about the shark. It's closer sweet.

630
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 1: I used to rock a lot of Greg Norman shirts.

631
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: The hat always looks sharp. He's always in such great shape.

632
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 1: He's in his late sixties. One story that went viral

633
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,400
Speaker 1: was like he had to pay for his own tickets.

634
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 1: Now he's never won Augusta. Obviously if he had, he'd

635
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: be playing in it. But you'd think, you know, they

636
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 1: take care of him. They don't like him there. But

637
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 1: he had thirteen guys that live. Freddy Couples tweeted this out.

638
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 1: It's like, Bro, you're making this big public statement how

639
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 1: you had to pay your way into Augusta. You have

640
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 1: thirteen guys playing in the tournament of the league that

641
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 1: you run. None of them can get you tickets. Like

642
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:43,440
Speaker 1: it was kind of a performance art for you making

643
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 1: that a big deal. Like if you needed to get

644
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: tickets through somebody, you easily could have. You paid people

645
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 1: you didn't, but you facilitated it. Made a ton of guys,

646
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 1: hundreds of millions of dollars. So I just the Greg

647
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 1: Norman things kind of exhausting. Vern Lunquist last masters he'll

648
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 1: ever call, he's going into retirement. Obviously, Vern was part

649
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 1: of the Jack Nicholas in eighty six was a little

650
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 1: before my time. But the Tiger Woods call of the

651
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:17,360
Speaker 1: chip in against christ Marco was. I mean, it's an

652
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 1: al Teimer. It's probably a top two or three Tiger

653
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,839
Speaker 1: Moment individual shot of his career. But when I think

654
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,759
Speaker 1: of Vern Lundquist, I think of a guy calling SEC football.

655
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 1: When the SEC went from being a local popular sport

656
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 1: it always thrived in the South, from being a national sport,

657
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 1: from being something that if you liked football, like most

658
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 1: of US NFL fans did, but we're probably more regional.

659
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 1: Like I followed the PAC twelve, you're a big ten guy,

660
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,320
Speaker 1: You're an SEC guy. I had to watch the SEC

661
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:50,799
Speaker 1: and it really started kind of with Urban Meyer at

662
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 1: Florida and then through Nick Saban. I think he retired

663
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen, but I think of the guy on

664
00:36:56,600 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: the mic for the big SEC games that became NFL

665
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:05,080
Speaker 1: light became must watch, became beside Ohio State and Michigan,

666
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:10,279
Speaker 1: the highest rate of games on television, and I would

667
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,680
Speaker 1: say the call and just the moment that I'll never

668
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 1: forget for Vern is the kick six Iron Bowl Auburn, Alabama.

669
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:22,399
Speaker 1: Chris Davis takes it to the house and obviously calling

670
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: hole sixteen for a long time. I think he used to.

671
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: He got relegated to that in his older years. I'm

672
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: pretty sure he called more of the masters, like he

673
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:34,280
Speaker 1: was more of on more holes when I was much younger,

674
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 1: but he's been on sixteen forever. And uh, just I

675
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 1: do wonder, you know, al Michaels, Vern Lundquist, some of

676
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,799
Speaker 1: these you know, even Nance, Marv Albert, some of these

677
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 1: legendary guys, Brent Lusberger, if they're going to exist, Like,

678
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,800
Speaker 1: is there any of those guys that are my age?

679
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 1: And I just don't know if there are now. Maybe

680
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 1: it's just nostalgic. Maybe it's just me being growing up

681
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:05,880
Speaker 1: and hearing those voices. So maybe I'm wrong, but I

682
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 1: don't know. I feel like my gut says I bet

683
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 1: against it. They are going to be few and far

684
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 1: between of just a group of six seven guys that

685
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 1: we all knew their names, we all knew their moments,

686
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: and I just don't know if they exist anymore, and

687
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 1: so hat tip to Vern Lunquist's incredible career to do

688
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 1: the masters in SEC football. Obviously he did NFL and

689
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 1: other stuff, but when I think of Vern Lunquist, that's

690
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:39,359
Speaker 1: what I think. And very cool picture today on the

691
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 1: Internet of Tiger, who obviously played in the first group

692
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 1: off today you couldn't see him because he was behind

693
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:48,359
Speaker 1: a tree, went over and shook his hand. I mean

694
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,480
Speaker 1: it felt like a solid like six ' seven second handshake,

695
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 1: Tiger paying his respects. So I actually liked this version

696
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:58,760
Speaker 1: of Tiger who even when he sucks for his standard,

697
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 1: can just kind of enjoy the moment. I don't know

698
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 1: there are another He played with the low am who asked

699
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 1: his high school buddy to caddy for him. I mean,

700
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 1: what a moment for those two guys to get to

701
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: be able to play with Tiger in Terrell Hatton. Last

702
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,759
Speaker 1: but not least, every time you showed him he was

703
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 1: swearing he was really mad. He's another guy that went

704
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,759
Speaker 1: to live like I just miss golf. Purists hate him

705
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:26,440
Speaker 1: because he's always complaining. He's always pissed off at a shot,

706
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 1: Like that's what the game needs. You can't have everybody

707
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:34,720
Speaker 1: just smiling in everyone's friend You need some wild cards.

708
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:39,280
Speaker 1: In Terrell Hatton, really good player and a major, major

709
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 1: wild card on the course. So I loved the Terrell

710
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: Hatton coverage because he was just doing crazy things constantly,

711
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 1: so awesome Masters. I was glued. I felt like I

712
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:55,440
Speaker 1: watched eighty five percent of it. And congrats to Scottie

713
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 1: Scheffler who wins a second Green jacket in three years.

714
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 1: It's just the that's just an outstanding accomplishment. I mean,

715
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:08,800
Speaker 1: no matter what sport you follow or like, the volume
