You know, I loved it, and 22 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: I think from a gambling from an entertainment perspective, it 23 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: doesn't get any better when there's just chaos. Now, would 24 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 1: it be really hard to play? Well, we'll dive into that. 25 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: But a lot of players were complaining. I liked it. 26 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: And then some other stories, Tigers going to the Hall 27 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: of Fame, Bryson D. Shambo out this week. Will we 28 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: ever see him again on the PGA Tour. We feel 29 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: like we will, but I don't know, you know, It's 30 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: just it gets a little more concerning by the week 31 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: anytime he doesn't show up. And uh J J. Monahan, 32 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: the PGA Tour commissioner, you know, no commented on the 33 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: side of league. You know, I wouldn't say that he 34 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: it's officially over, but he at least won the battle. 35 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: Now did he win the war? I don't know, but 36 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: he but he handled the battle pretty pretty well. At 37 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: gol Pod.

He'll 50 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: be on a bit a little bit later and you'll 51 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: hear I love John Rom this week. And my my, 52 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: my thought process on this is simple. I think John Rom, 53 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 1: when it's all said and done, we'll go down one 54 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,959 Speaker 1: of the greatest players in the history of the game. Well, 55 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: to do that, you have to win a lot of 56 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: golf tournaments. And I heard Pat Perez last week. He 57 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: was on the Colt Doost and Sleeves on their podcast 58 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: Golf Subpar, and he talked about he plays with John 59 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: Rom at Silver Leaf Country Club in Arizona. They both 60 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: live in Scottsdale, where I would where I would love 61 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: to not only live and be a member, hopefully here 62 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: in the near future. And he mentioned that John rom 63 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: told him a long time ago that I'm not in 64 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: this for the money. He's already super rich. I'm not 65 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: in this for the fame. I'm in this to try 66 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: to win nineteen majors. I'm in this to become a legend. Well, 67 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: part of becoming a legend is rattling off some big 68 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: boy tournaments. He was the best player in the Ryder Cup, 69 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: though his team lost, but it was clear he dominated. 70 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: But Scott beside when Scotti Scheffler beat him, And it 71 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: looks like Scottie Scheffler's now one two of the last 72 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: three tournaments. Google Scottie Scheffler's winnings. They have not played 73 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: the majors, they have not played the players, and he 74 00:03:55,800 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: already has made five million dollars. Scottie Scheffler getting awfully 75 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: rich this season. But John ram Who's both striking statistics 76 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: this year off the t distance, off the t Tita 77 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: Green and Green's hit all either lead the PGA Tour 78 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: or a top three or four. There is no one 79 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: in the game of golf who is playing better Tita 80 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 1: Green than John Raum He's the number one player in 81 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: the world for a while for a reason. Now Colin 82 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: Mark Howe was right on his his heels. John Ram 83 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: is not putted well this year, which is a problem. 84 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: But John Ram has proven before many times that he 85 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: can put and his short game is more than serviceable. 86 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: I have a large, sizeable wager on John Ram. The 87 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: conditions are gonna get weird this weekend, rain cold, I 88 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: don't give a ship the cream should rise. I don't 89 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: like I love John Rom this weekend and to me, 90 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: this is a type moment where John Ram, if he's 91 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 1: gonna be the player we become, he has a season 92 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: where he wins the players and maybe he wins two majors. 93 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,239 Speaker 1: That's how you become a legend. Like Marc has already 94 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: won two majors. He's got one more than John Rome, 95 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: and now everyone's picking him to win the players. Is 96 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: it really just gonna be this easy? It's Colin Marikawa 97 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: gonna fly by John Roman become the number one player 98 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 1: in the world. We're about to find out. I know 99 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: my gut and part of it and I tell so 100 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 1: well this is value. John Ram has consistently been seven 101 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 1: eight to one every single week which is insane odds 102 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 1: for a guy that hasn't been winning that much, but 103 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: you know he's, you know, great player. Odds are like 104 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: Tiger level, not quite Tiger used to be like three 105 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 1: or four to one, but you get eight to one, 106 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: like that's I haven't been him. You put the odds 107 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: twelve to one, fourteen to one, basically double. I'm in, 108 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: I'm in. This is his moment. I like John Ron 109 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: this weekend. Also have a little bit on Kepka and 110 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: on Xander Shoffley to top five. This is the horses 111 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: are coming out to play this weekend. That this eight 112 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 1: the weekend for the ponies. The secretariat's walking through that door. 113 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: Twenty million dollars. The winner of the players gets three 114 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 1: point six million dollars. Second place gets two point one 115 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: eight million dollars. Third place gets one point three eight 116 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 1: million dollars. The irony of Phil Mickelson talking about the 117 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: greed and the tour kind of fucking everyone. It's proven 118 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 1: to be a little bit of bs. The amount of 119 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: money all these guys are making right now playing golf 120 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: is absurd and it's only gonna get bigger moving forward. 121 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: And listen, I like golf more than any of the 122 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,359 Speaker 1: sport beside football, but like golf, ain't quite the NBA 123 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 1: or baseball just historically yet, and it's starting to pay 124 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: out money that they've never ever sniffed. And Tiger hasn't 125 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 1: played a tournament now in over a year and ain't 126 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: like he's they're carrying hell there, you could argue their 127 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: biggest star just in terms of name recognition, Bryson d Sjambo, 128 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: we haven't seen them all year. So the p G 129 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: a where they're headed. The money they're giving out this 130 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: sport is now, it's been big business, but it is 131 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: becoming huge business for tour players. So it's gonna be 132 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 1: fascinating to watch this week people get tight beca has 133 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: the amount of money, the pressure on the line this weekend. 134 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: I don't think we're gonna see that many randoms in 135 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: the mix now. Sometimes when weather gets weird, it neutralizes, 136 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: you know, the top players. It makes the field a 137 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: little wider. Right, if it's hard, firm and fast, random 138 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: guys aren't gonna be in the mix. The cream's gonna rise. 139 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: The best players are gonna be near the top, right, 140 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: the ROMs, the more Cowa's, the Zanders, the can't lays 141 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: those type guys. Sometimes you get rain, you get some wind. 142 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 1: You could add some players to the mix. Though it's 143 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: pretty clear the difficulty of this tournament, the pressure now 144 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: involved with the money in this tournament, I think it's 145 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: really gonna separate. I will be stunned if we see 146 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: more than like one random name near the top ten. 147 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: Now when you look historically, like I have a bet 148 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: on Jordan's speek to be in the mix, and Jordan's 149 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: speek is not played here, played well at this tournament, 150 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 1: but historically a lot of guys win this tournament and 151 00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: then missed the cut the next year. When you look 152 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: at all the top players, justin Thomas Jordan's speak, Patrick Cantley, 153 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: all these guys have missed the cut at the Players 154 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: So that this is not this is it's not the 155 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: fifth Major, it's the Players Championship. It's completely separate. But 156 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,559 Speaker 1: you know, you could argue they're really, in my mind, 157 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: three majors. AUGUSTA, the US Open and I call it 158 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: the British Open. Then there's the p G A, which 159 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: to me, the p G A and the players are 160 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: very very similar, right, But usually at the p G A, 161 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: like the players, the top dogs come to play, and 162 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: I'm very very excited for this tournament. I wish it 163 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,679 Speaker 1: was just good weather you could add win, but I 164 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: wish it was sunny, firm, fast, and um I'm excited 165 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: to watch. But again, I like John Ram and I 166 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: like John Ram big this weekend. One thing I wouldn't 167 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: say it was controversial, but any time that you get 168 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: a tournament that is very, very difficult, two things happen. 169 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: The players complain and you know sometimes you know, listen, 170 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: if you're playing, Like, have you ever played a tough 171 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: golf course, it's easy to bitch and moan. It sucks 172 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 1: even if you're a random average player. You're a tin 173 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: handicap when you have no chance at par and when 174 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: you're a good pro, when you have no chance at 175 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: Bertie and holes that should be parrible, a bogey, you 176 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: feel pretty good. It's gonna piss you off. So I 177 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: never blame players in the heat of the moment for complaining. 178 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 1: It's like after you lose as an NFL player, as 179 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 1: a basketball player, if I have to talk to the 180 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: press fifteen minutes after the game, like I understand, emotions 181 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: are running high. I remember Gary st Jeane used to 182 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 1: tell me he used to be the head coach of 183 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: the Sacramento Kings, and he was a GM for a 184 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: while he worked for the Warriors. He's like, one thing 185 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: I'd always do is after a game win or lost, 186 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: but specifically after a bad loss, I'd slam a beer 187 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,719 Speaker 1: and it would just take a little pressure off me 188 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: because I know I have to get in front of 189 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: the cameras and I might say something stupid. And a 190 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: lot of guys obviously last week complained Rory specifically, and 191 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: Rory mentioned I saw at the players. He said, you 192 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 1: know a lot of guys in the clubhouse on Sunday 193 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: we're drinking. And it wasn't a ceremonial drink. It was 194 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 1: drinking our sorrows away because how hard it was. Even 195 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: though John Romen is kind of why I like him, 196 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: next week said not only will I be back, I 197 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: enjoyed playing like this. I know as a viewer and 198 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 1: as a consumer. And let's face we pay the bills. 199 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: I say it all the time. Fans pay for everything 200 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: involved with pro sports. Without the fans, there is no 201 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: business model. It's just a high level game of y 202 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: m C A, which a high level Skins game. That's 203 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: what it is. As a viewer, and as someone that 204 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: had money on guys like Gary Woodland, who had Billy 205 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 1: Horschel to top ten, who had different bets out there, 206 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:47,239 Speaker 1: I find it very, very enjoyable to watch guys struggle. 207 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: Gary Woodland had a stretch where he eagles sixteen, takes 208 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 1: the lead. The next hole he double bogeys to fall 209 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: back a one shot behind the lead. That to me, 210 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 1: you do not yet at the majority of non major 211 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: tournaments because most of them it's just a birdie fest. 212 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: And as a gambler, when you have a guy in 213 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: a birdie fest, it's hard to come back. You don't 214 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: see that many guys get double bogies. You don't see 215 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: that many guys have devastating hit it out of bounds 216 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: or hit in the water down the stretch. But at 217 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: the Orna Palmer where it was impossible to keep the 218 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: ball in the fairway because they were concrete, you know, 219 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: they were basically concrete. The greens, who has Harry Higgs 220 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: said on the No Laying Up podcast are dead and 221 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:36,319 Speaker 1: he basically meaning they're rock hard. You cannot hold the greens. 222 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: And then the rough and I think a lot of 223 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: the media elites that cover golf like the best part 224 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: about where I stand. I'm not too close to the game. 225 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: I'm looking at it strictly from a fan, someone who 226 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: loves the game, and someone who loves playing the game 227 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 1: and loves gambling on the game. I like the high 228 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: rough because when you have the slopes where you just 229 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: basically have a second cut a k the fringe like 230 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: riveed Us and you could just roll off the green. 231 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 1: I find it much more. He creates much more chaos 232 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: with nine inch rough. Yeah, it stops the ball immediately 233 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: when it leaves the fairway or leaves the green, but 234 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 1: then it's a very very difficult chip, and that creates chaos, 235 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 1: that creates maybe a bogey turns into a double. We 236 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: saw it all the time, and now they're sand at 237 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: the Arna. Palmer clearly sucks, and Azinger mentioned on the 238 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: broadcast like, ultimately, Arnold Palmer always wanted to get a 239 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: US Open at bay Hill. He never got one and 240 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,839 Speaker 1: he never will obviously he's long gone. But Bale is 241 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 1: never gonna have it. But they set it up, they 242 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: manipulate it, which I got no problem with. I enjoy 243 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 1: watching something different in college in the NFL. We see 244 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: so many teams win a game in the NFL, thirty 245 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: to thirty. In college, that's fun. Every once in a while, 246 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: it's fun to watch a bunch of touchdowns, right, no defense, play, 247 00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 1: just touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, big play, big, big play. I'm 248 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: a sucker for a seventeen fourteen NFL playoff game, the 249 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: SEC championship game, where every yard is contested. I enjoy that, 250 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: just like I enjoy watching a golf tournament. I don't 251 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: mind watching some golf tournaments nineteen under winning and you're 252 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: you know, you're shooting thirty on the back nine on 253 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: Sunday and a lot of guys are shooting, you know, 254 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 1: thirty one, thirty two, everyone's going under. Part. That's that 255 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 1: happens a lot. We're used to sing that, just like 256 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 1: in football now we're used to sing a lot of touchdowns. 257 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: I like a curveball. I like knowing that minus five 258 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: might win this thing, that if you just shoot. I 259 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 1: had money on Taylor Gooch, Taylor Gooch on the front nine, 260 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: who went into Sunday winning the golf tournament, winning the 261 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: golf tournament. I was gonna win two grand if Taylor 262 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 1: Gooch won the tournament. He shot forty three on the 263 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: front nine. If you shoot forty three, and basically any 264 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: tournament beside maybe the US Open, if you have a 265 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: lead in all season long, do you have no chance? 266 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: Probably the top ten, You're done. You're gonna plummet. Yet 267 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: he birdies a couple of holes early on the back nine, 268 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: and he's two shots behind the leaders. It's like, God, 269 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 1: Taylor Cooch is not dead. I don't mind that. And honestly, 270 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: I think a lot of fans I got a lot 271 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: of d m s that like, this is kind of cool. 272 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: It's fun to watch the best players in the world 273 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 1: occasionally look like us and listen. I saw a lot 274 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: of people like the average you know, scratch handicap or 275 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: you know, scratch golfer or two handicap or five handicap 276 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: with shoot a hundred, we get that. We can comprehend 277 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: how hard that golf tournament would be. I can watch 278 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: some of these holes, these craziest dog legs with with 279 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: legs everywhere. I would not want to play there, right, 280 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: I mean most of us would not. It would be impossible. 281 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: But these top players can literally play any course in 282 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: the world and shoot sixty eight with their eyes closed. 283 00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: It's cool to watch them shoot six occasionally because times 284 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: on our best days we shoot You know, if you're 285 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: a four handicapped like me, I know we got some 286 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: good golfers listening. We have some guys that would die 287 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 1: to shoot seventy. But it's I find it enjoyable every 288 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: once in a while to watch several guys, the majority 289 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: of the guys the average scoring to be seventy six, 290 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: even if, yeah, they're manipulating a little bit, I'm cool 291 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: with that. I don't want to watch that every weekend, 292 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: but if it's gonna happen once or twice a year 293 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 1: non major, count me in. I think it's Wednesday night. 294 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: Tiger Woods Shocker is entering the Golf Hall of Fame. 295 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: You probably could have put Tiger in the Hall of 296 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: Fame in like two thousand one, so he's been Hall 297 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: of Fame eligible. I don't know literally what the golf 298 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: rules are, but he was a Hall of Famer by 299 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: the time he was like twenty five years old. Listening 300 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: to the Stevie Williams podcast Chasing Majors. He won back 301 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: to back majors in two thousand, the US Open and 302 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: the British Open at St. Andrew's by a combined twenty 303 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: two shots. He won two majors in a row. Obviously, 304 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: he won four straight majors, but you know, the Masters, 305 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: I think he only won by a couple of shots 306 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: in OH one and the the p G A heither 307 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: won an extra holes where he won on hole eighteen 308 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: on Sunday. But he went back to back major's Pebble 309 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: Beach and St. Andrew's by a combined twenty two shots. 310 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: I feel very, very confident in the history of golf 311 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: moving forward, we will never see a player win back 312 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: to back majors by twenty two shots. I would actually 313 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: put a hundred thousand dollars on that right now. I 314 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: would kind of check hundred thousand dollars boom. We will 315 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: never see that again, because it's never gonna happen. That 316 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: to me, he has a lot of great accomplishments. I mean, hell, 317 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: his first US Amateur Tiger Woods happened at tpc SA 318 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: grass I tweeted it out on Monday night and he's 319 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: down six shots. You know, you play thirty six holes 320 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: in the US Amateur in the fine around, he was 321 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: down six shots, came back ended up taking the lead 322 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 1: on whole seventeen. It was this was I do believe 323 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: TPC saw Grass like Tiger was famous as a two 324 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: year old. Right he went on television. People knew about 325 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:19,199 Speaker 1: him in the golfing world. But in nineteen when he 326 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: won the US Amateur, I think he might have been 327 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: a senior in high school, might have been his freshman 328 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: or in college. I'm pretty sure he was a senior 329 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: in high school because I think ninety five ninety six, 330 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 1: whereas two years at Stanford. I might be off on 331 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,919 Speaker 1: the timeline. Maybe it was his freshman year in college, 332 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: but I think that is when the legend and the 333 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,919 Speaker 1: mystique of Tiger Woods begin. Obviously he would go on 334 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,199 Speaker 1: to win two more US Amateurs, but winning that, he 335 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 1: takes the lead on whole seventeen, the famous part three 336 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 1: knocks in a put from the rough or I mean 337 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: the fringe that easily could have gone in the water. 338 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 1: He was six down, he went one up, and then 339 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: he won whole eighteen. He hugs Earl Woods Brent Musburger, 340 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: who's working for ESPN at the time. You know, it 341 00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: was the biggest comeback in the history of the US 342 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: Amateur at the time, I would imagine it still is 343 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: and kind of giving the layout of Earl Woods, who 344 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 1: was a multiple time multiple tours in Vietnam, was a 345 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: Green Beret. One of the guys that he served with, 346 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 1: whose nickname was Tiger, he named Tiger after Earl Woods 347 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 1: had not talked to Tiger, who he knew since they 348 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 1: left Vietnam. It's crazy because technology in the seventies and eighties, 349 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 1: like if you don't have a guy's phone number, there's 350 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: no such thing as emails, you know, there's no like, uh, 351 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: there's no googling them. You just lose touch with people. 352 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: And now you know, almost thirty years later, Tigers entering 353 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. And I do think it's pretty cool. 354 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: He's having his daughter introduce him, you know, and and 355 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: Sam and Charlie, you know, part of you know, it's 356 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 1: it sucks in a way for them that when you're 357 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 1: famous and Tiger are is you know, your kids become 358 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 1: so famous they didn't necessarily ask for it. Uh. And 359 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: Charlie is gonna be you know, I'll be shocked at 360 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 1: minimum if he's not like a mini tour player, and 361 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: he's gonna he'll probably end up going to Stanford. Well, 362 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: I can see him at the SEC. I can see Florida, Georgia, Alabama. Um, 363 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 1: I can see Tiger keeping him in the SEC country. 364 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: But Stanford is a pretty special place. Uh. But that's 365 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: it's a pretty cool moment. Bryson, like I mentioned, I 366 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: mean not playing in this tournament, obviously didn't play last 367 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: week defending his championship. You know, match play is in 368 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks at Austin Country Club. Who knows 369 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 1: if he's gonna show up there? You know, Augusta's basically 370 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: March Madness starts next week, So March Madness your four 371 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: weeks away from the final four. And then the week 372 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: after the final four, Jim Nance always goes Final four Masters, 373 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: so we're not very far away. And if this guy 374 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: can't stay healthy, I mean, we're gonna see Bryson d 375 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: Shambo again. Are we're ever gonna see him on the 376 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: PGA tour? Who knows? It's it's a little bizarre. And 377 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: then last but not least, the the commissioner, he just 378 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: wouldn't comment on the Saudi and I just you know, 379 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: who knows. It's just it's gonna be a topic as 380 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: long as Phil's missing. I mean, are we gonna end 381 00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 1: up seeing Phil at He's the defending champ of the 382 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 1: PGA Championship and that's in a couple of months, but 383 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: he's won. He's one of gustas several times. They have 384 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: this little thing, as anyone that's listening to this and 385 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 1: those golf knows, called the Champions Dinner, and uh, pretty 386 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 1: sure champions don't usually miss that dinner. So a film 387 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,679 Speaker 1: misses the Masters, that would be the first like, whoa 388 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,159 Speaker 1: this is? This has gotten pretty weird. This has gotten 389 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: pretty crazy, and I would say that's on the table 390 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: right now. I don't I don't think Phil by any 391 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,239 Speaker 1: means is a lock to be seen again now. Like 392 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: I said, Jay Monahan would not comment. Unlike like the NFL, 393 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley bets on the NFL, which you can't bet 394 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: on your own sport. Like if it ever came out that, 395 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: I guess it would be a little different golf if like, uh, 396 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: you know, Patrick can't lay bet on himself. Of course 397 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: he's there's no spread to cover. He's just betting on 398 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 1: himself the top five or top ten or to win. 399 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,439 Speaker 1: But he you know, the NFL announces like Calvin Ridley 400 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: has been suspended a year in golf. They don't announce 401 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: you know, Dustin Johnson got spend it. They didn't announce it. 402 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: So Phil suspended that. They're not gonna tell you no. 403 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: You would think that would leak, but it hasn't yet. 404 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 1: Back at it again with with our guy Jason Sobel. 405 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start calling him Mr Golf Live from TPC 406 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: saw Grass right now.

Jay Monahan talk today? Obviously 415 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 1: you know a lot going on there in PGA Tour world, 416 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: right There's a whole lot going on here. We had 417 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: Justin Thomas calling Morrikala, Grory McElroy and John rum come through. 418 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 1: Uh this media set of which you know, feel back 419 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: the current. I can even i can even show you 420 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: a little bit. There's a at the front of the room, 421 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 1: a a podium up here if I can get the 422 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 1: camera right, and so they can we bring the guys 423 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: into the poe into the interview room here and can 424 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: speak with them right here in the media center. So 425 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,160 Speaker 1: the one thing that's really struck me with the four 426 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,239 Speaker 1: players that's that have come in so far, not like 427 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: we didn't know this at all, John, but just like bright, uh, intelligent, informative, 428 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,679 Speaker 1: opinionated guys, you know, all different opinions too, you know, 429 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 1: certainly Rory and John, rob didn't agree on course conditions 430 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: and set up for bay Hill this past week, but 431 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: all really good speakers. And then Jamna had of course 432 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 1: p J two commissioner came in as well. Before we 433 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 1: get into the gambling. Obviously, the weather, uh, you're a 434 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: Florida guy, it feels you know, the weather in Florida 435 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 1: can be weird any time of year. But we got rain, thunderstorms, 436 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: and then uh, you know the weather guys aren't always right. 437 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,439 Speaker 1: But it's supposed to be cold, especially on the weekend. 438 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,640 Speaker 1: Does that impact you know, you could argue the best 439 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: players play the best, you know, regardless of conditions. But 440 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 1: do you look at it a little differently knowing that 441 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: it's not gonna be a seventy five degree weekend. So 442 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: I look at this tournament John and and this golf 443 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: course TPC saw grasses one that tests all aspects of 444 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 1: a player's game. And I think it's very appropriate that 445 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: this week we're going to see maybe conditions that test 446 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: all aspects of a player's game. Because we're supposed to 447 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 1: get some thunderstorms rolling through here Thursday and Friday. It's 448 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: gonna be wet, it's gonna be muddy. Uh you know, 449 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: it's certainly gonna be um, not not necessarily windy, but 450 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: just some rain coming down throughout those two days. Then 451 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 1: on the weekend, all of a sudden, it dries out, 452 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,400 Speaker 1: gets much cooler, lowd to mid fifties, and the wind 453 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: is supposed to gust up to thirty five forty and 454 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 1: it's really gonna change, really gonna be much different. I 455 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 1: think though, from a betting perspective, what that does is 456 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: leave open some potential live bets for the weekend that 457 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 1: could be very, very valuable. We saw just last week 458 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: Scotty Scheffler. He was way back I believe eight shots back, 459 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,360 Speaker 1: nine shots back going into the weekend at bay Hill, 460 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: and he was able to go out there and play 461 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 1: some really good golf on the weekend, uh when and 462 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 1: a lot of other guys were falling back to the pack. 463 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: So I think we can see something similar if the 464 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: weather does indeed do what it's forecasting to do this week. Okay, 465 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: the Players Championship. I like the number one player in 466 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: the world. You like the number two player in the world. 467 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily think and go wrong taking either guy. 468 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: But let's let's start with Colin Morikawa. Uh, doing my 469 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 1: own little research. Of course, history hasn't necessarily meant good 470 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 1: or bad for any player. Uh. You know, often guys 471 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: win this tournament and then missed the cut the following year. 472 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 1: So talk talking me into Colin Morikawa, who's played this 473 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 1: tournament once, correct, and now granted he's played this golf 474 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 1: course many times. You know, he's the betting favorite, Uh him, 475 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 1: Justin Thomas and John rom you know, kind of all 476 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: right there in the mix at twelve, thirteen, eleven somewhere, 477 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: depending on where you look. Why do you like Colin 478 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: Morikawa this weekend? Yeah? First of all, John, we always 479 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 1: say shop around in the different books out there, because 480 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 1: they might have different prices this week, wildly different prices. 481 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 1: And some of the books out there, I've seen John 482 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 1: ram as the favorite. I've seen Justin Thomas is the favorite, 483 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: or co favorite. I've seen Colin Morrikawa as the favorite. 484 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: So you definitely want to shop around for those prices. 485 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: I look at Marikaway and I see a player just 486 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 1: like I said a minute ago, where this course, this 487 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 1: tournament tends to test every aspect of your game. Well. 488 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: Colin Morcowa ranks number one on the PGA Tour in 489 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 1: total strokes game this season, number one in the all 490 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,479 Speaker 1: around category, which is one that I like looking at 491 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: because quite frankly, it's exactly what it sounds like. It 492 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: shows which players are the most well rounded, which players 493 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: don't really have any sort of uh, any sort of 494 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: deficiencies in any specific category. And so that's Morrikawa right now. 495 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 1: I think he's trending in the right direction. You throw 496 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 1: in the fact that he doesn't tend to shy away 497 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 1: from big events when he's in contention coming down the stretch, 498 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 1: as we've seen over the last few years early in 499 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 1: his career, and so he is my favorite Blake. You said, 500 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: I know you're on John Rom this week. Uh, I 501 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: ain't gonna talk you out of it. If you like 502 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: John Rom this week, he's certainly capable and certainly worthy 503 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: of having this trophy comes Sunday evening. Well, I think 504 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 1: there's two things I look at with John Rom. One 505 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 1: from a value standpoint. You know, he's consistently been this 506 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: year seven to one, and you and I have talked 507 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: about that's non Tiger. That's pretty nuts right in golf. 508 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: But now if you can get him at twelve fourteen 509 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: to one, it's basically the double the odds. And then 510 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: when you look from a ball striking standpoint, number one 511 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 1: in green's a regulation number one in strokes, game gain 512 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: off the team this season, number one in tita green, 513 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 1: number two in approach number four and overall driving. Now, 514 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: the putting, you know, has been a little off, But 515 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: is it fair to say that because he's hitting so 516 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 1: many greens. You know, he's not chipping and getting up 517 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,159 Speaker 1: and down like some of these guys, So he's some 518 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 1: of his puts are just a little bit longer, So 519 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 1: the stats could be a little skewed. It's not like 520 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: he's finishing fifth in these tournaments. I mean, he's top 521 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 1: twenty in every tournament, multiple top fives. You know. Paperetz 522 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 1: had comments last week saying that John rom you know, 523 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: is just on a mission to be one of the 524 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,479 Speaker 1: greatest players of all time and chase down these records. 525 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 1: And you know, we all thought he was gonna have 526 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: a big Season's number one in the world. It just 527 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 1: feels like, you know, it's he's been building momentum might 528 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: be the wrong word, but he's had a good season 529 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: and and this tournament Augusta, the US Open, Like you know, 530 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:28,880 Speaker 1: he came into the season like with a tiger mindset. 531 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:30,919 Speaker 1: And that's that's why I like him. This weekend, what's 532 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: the buzz out there on the grounds when it comes 533 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,640 Speaker 1: to John Rom? So, John, I've I'm not one that's 534 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: ever said from the time that John rom became a 535 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 1: professional until now that his temper, his his fiery competitiveness 536 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: would ever hold him back at all. I think you 537 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 1: are who you are, and and certain players uh succeed 538 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 1: as fiery guys. Other guys are more stoic, and it's 539 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 1: just you. You can't. I think you get into a 540 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: little bit of problem as a professional golfer when you 541 00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: try to act a different way than from what your 542 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 1: personal he really is. So I have no problem that 543 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 1: he's a fiery type of guy. What I've seen from 544 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,160 Speaker 1: John Romen like really, the only very very small thing 545 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 1: to get me off him just a little bit this 546 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 1: week is the fact that it seems like weekend week 547 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 1: out when he's playing, it seems like he's getting a 548 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 1: little more frustrated than he has in the past. And yes, 549 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 1: part of that is just his fiery nature, is competitive nature, 550 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: and uh, he doesn't seem afterwards, to his credit, that 551 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 1: the frustration carries with him that you know, he's frustrated 552 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,199 Speaker 1: in the moment, but he gets it kind of vented 553 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: out there and afterwards he's like, that was fun. You know. 554 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 1: I like a challenge. I like hard golf course. I 555 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: like having shots that aren't necessarily easy shots to hit. 556 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 1: But it does seem like he's gotten a little bit 557 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,959 Speaker 1: more frustrated as of late. That said, I've got him 558 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: certainly top ten on my list this week. It's got 559 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: a very high floor and a very high ceiling, which 560 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: is a nice combination to have for any player beside 561 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: more Cow and rom which I think we'd probably both 562 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: agree are in their own category right now. Of just 563 00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: the top two top players, regardless of the ranking, just 564 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: there of two best guys clearly on tour. The next 565 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: group of guys the can't Lays, the Xander's, the DJs, 566 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: the keptas either speech, just the big names who have 567 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: the pedigree. I saw you like Burger for you know, 568 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: a top five, top ten of that group, you know, 569 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: who do you feel confident on coming into this, maybe 570 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: not to win it, but see good value either as 571 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: a top five or top ten. Yeah, I mean a 572 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: few of those names are like you mentioned Daniel Burger. 573 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: I I know he's coming off two weeks ago having 574 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: the fifty four hole lead at the Honda Classic, finishing 575 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: in fourth place, really disappointing final round at PGA National, 576 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: But I still think his game is perfectly suited for 577 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: this golf course. He's in good form. He should be 578 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: able to bounce back from that. Some Jim tends to 579 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: play some of his best golf in Florida. He was 580 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: twentieth last week at bay Hill. A little bit disappointing 581 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: on the weekend, but I expect him to have a 582 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: really good one. Matt Fitzpatrick. We all know that he 583 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: loves playing tough golf courses. He played really well on 584 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 1: the weekend at a p I as well. If this 585 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: weekend turns into as difficult as I think it could 586 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: be with those winds coming through, Fitzpatrick is a guy 587 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: that doesn't need to rack up ten birdies on the weekend. 588 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: He can make three birdies, four birdies on the weekend 589 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 1: and maybe climb that leaderboard. He's another guy that I 590 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: do like. Cameron Smith is up there. I mean there 591 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: there are a lot of names up there. And I 592 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: used this tournament every year sort of a litmus test. 593 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to this point in the year, 594 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: and this is sort of maybe not a reward, but 595 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: this is a little bit of a magnifying glass on 596 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 1: where players games are right now. And I think the 597 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: guys that have played well over the first couple of 598 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: months of the year are the guys that we're gonna 599 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: see on that leaderboard this week and um and the 600 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: guys who haven't played well, we're not going to see them. 601 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: This is usually very much a reflection of form as 602 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: much as anything else. Well, when you say whether you know, 603 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people gravitate either towards the 604 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: Euros or the Irishman and Shane Lowry just a couple 605 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: of weeks ago was right in the mix. The irony 606 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: is the weather kind of threw him off on hole 607 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: a team, but you know he won the Open before 608 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: or just a couple of years ago and pretty commanding fashion. 609 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 1: You could argue his game is, you know, at a 610 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: plan at a high level. Do you like him this weekend? 611 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: Because I kind of do. Was just you know, I 612 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: wouldn't call him a long shot, but at the players 613 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: he's a long shot. Yeah, I like him. Um. You 614 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: know it's interesting, you're right because anytime we say weather, 615 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 1: some of the European names start popping out. People say, oh, well, 616 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: if if it's weather, well from everything that's forecast, like 617 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 1: I said, we're gonna have completely different kinds of weather. 618 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 1: It's gonna be hot, then it's gonna be rainy, and 619 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: it's gonna get muddy, and it's gonna be damp and wet, 620 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden it's gonna cool off 621 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: and the winds are gonna come through. I mean, we're 622 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 1: gonna get a little bit of everything here. And so 623 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: just saying well, so and so likes playing in weather. 624 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a specific kind of weather, and so, yeah, 625 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: you would think a guy from from northern Ireland. You 626 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: think a guy, uh, from from the UK who who 627 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: might play better in you know, wet conditions and windy 628 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: conditions and colder conditions. But quite frankly, I don't put 629 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: too much stock in that. That was maybe a good 630 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: notion years ago when these guys essentially lived in the 631 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 1: same places where they grew up. Now it really lives 632 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: in Florida or Arizona, or Texas or you know, California. 633 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 1: These guys have been around the world. They all know 634 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: how to deal with the conditions. So again, I just 635 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: I don't put too much stock in that. Um. You know, 636 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: we look at over the first couple of days, Rory 637 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: McIlroy's he's great when it's soft and damp and uh, 638 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: he can go out there and fire at flagsticks. But 639 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: as we saw this past weekend, the wind starts blowing 640 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 1: and for a Northern irishman, he tends to not perform 641 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 1: as well in those windy conditions. So I think it's 642 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 1: gonna go back and forth a little bit. I would 643 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: give a little bit more credence to those who just 644 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: play well in tough conditions. And I do think like 645 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: I keep saying that this weekend's gonna be a lot 646 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: tougher than I think most people realize coming into this one. Well, 647 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: then I got a name for you. And this guy 648 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: does not have good course history here, but when he 649 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: thought talk about things getting weird, and he's in good 650 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: form this season and Jordan's speak, you know, fifty one, 651 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 1: you can get him as a top five at about 652 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: ten to one. What are your thoughts on Spee? Yeah, 653 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 1: I'm starting to like it. I'm starting to get in 654 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: on speed a little bit. Um feels like he's ramping 655 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: up towards something good. That said, he's played this fan 656 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 1: it's seven or eight times, tied for fourth, and his 657 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: home well his first time playing it, and since then 658 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: it has not been good. And so you just wonder, uh, 659 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 1: is there something about the course that doesn't quite fit him? 660 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: You look at it and he say he's a good 661 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: ball striker. I mean this this should be one that 662 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: he should play well. And again, there aren't a whole 663 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 1: lot of course horses here. We look at a guy 664 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 1: like Adam Scott, Sergio Garcia, who've been playing here for 665 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: twenty years, and okay, they've got a little of that 666 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: course history, but other than that, there just aren't a 667 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: whole lot of players who continually play well at TPC 668 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: Sawgrass year after year. So maybe the key is looking 669 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 1: at players who haven't yet played their best golf on 670 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 1: this golf course and taking those guys to sort of 671 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: reverse the trends. And Jordan's speeth certainly fits that profile. 672 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: What about Phil Mickelson is a long shot. Oh that's 673 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 1: an extremely long long shot. J Monah just said a 674 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: little while ago. I'm sitting there on Tuesday, and he 675 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,359 Speaker 1: was in the in the press room about an hour 676 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: ago speaking about Phil. Michelson said, balls in his court. 677 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 1: And even though he likes transparency, he won't be transparent 678 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 1: on whether there were any sort of disciplinary measured towards Phil. 679 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 1: On why he's not here this week, I might ask 680 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: you this every week, but you know, he's an Augusta, 681 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 1: He's won it several times, he's the defending PGA championship. 682 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 1: And what percentage do you say we see him at 683 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: those events at fifty? Havout a solid fifty right now? 684 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: I have absolutely no idea I don't know what's going 685 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: on with Phil. I don't know what feels thinking. I 686 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 1: don't know what feels feeling. I think at some point 687 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 1: this tends to blow over. We've already had guys like 688 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 1: Rory McIlroy come out and say, all right, he said stuff, 689 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,320 Speaker 1: it was stupid, it's over with. Let's move on. And 690 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 1: so at some point I think we do move on. 691 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 1: It's just a matter of Phil taking that next up 692 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 1: and saying, Okay, I'm gonna come out into the public 693 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,240 Speaker 1: spot light. I'm gonna deal with all the media questions 694 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,479 Speaker 1: and now I'm gonna go out and play some golf again. 695 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: So yeah, it could certainly happen next month at Augusta, 696 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 1: or it could happen sometime later down the road. I mean, 697 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 1: if he doesn't play Augusta, does he not show up 698 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: for the PGA Championship where he's the defending champion. I 699 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: I just don't really see that happening. But again, I 700 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: have absolutely no idea. What about I'll get you out 701 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 1: of here on this. What about Mr long Drive? Obviously 702 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: he you know, he's injured, and you know, it felt 703 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: like he might show up and then he pulled out. 704 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: You know, I guess in a couple of weeks, the 705 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: big there's a big payout for the match play, it's 706 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 1: it's in the events in Texas, and then Augusta is 707 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: not too far away after that. I mean, is do 708 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 1: people truly believe it's just the injury or is it 709 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: still like you know, he's like Phil, He's kind of 710 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: going back and forth. I think it's just the injury. 711 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 1: He has told reporters that big things are coming for 712 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,760 Speaker 1: him very very soon. I don't know if we're supposed 713 00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,800 Speaker 1: to read more into that, or if he's trying to 714 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 1: addicta a master's win for himself or whatever it might be, 715 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 1: but he keeps maintaining that he will be back very 716 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 1: very soon. Again. I mean, you know, we keep guessing 717 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: as to some of these returns and when they might 718 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: happen and where they might happen. But your guest is 719 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: probably as good as mine with Bryce, and I've heard 720 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: inklings that maybe if he's healthy enough, tries to go 721 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,920 Speaker 1: play Tampa next week. But I can't imagine that if 722 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 1: he wasn't healthy enough this week that he's gonna be 723 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 1: ready to go next week. Well, sobel enjoy the week. Uh, 724 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 1: if you run into Rombo here in the next couple 725 00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 1: of days before Thursday. Tell him your boy Middlecoff's got 726 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,640 Speaker 1: a large wager on him and he's ready to just 727 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:41,759 Speaker 1: we'd like to win this thing by five or six 728 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 1: shots if you make it easy. I will mention that 729 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 1: to him. I'm sure he's very interested in your wages 730 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 1: this week. I it's funny Colin more Cow will walk 731 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 1: past him this morning on his way up to the 732 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 1: press conference setting here, and I was like, Okay, I'm 733 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: just kind of iroem down. You know, like one of 734 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 1: those cartoons where the guy on the deserted island is 735 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 1: looking at his buddy like he's a big hammy, and 736 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 1: I just kind of like, you know, yeah, you're looking 737 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: pretty good over there, Colin. Alright, so hopefully hopefully, you know, 738 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 1: at least one of us cash something. Let's let's let's 739 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,319 Speaker 1: get it. Have a have a good weekend, so we'll 740 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 1: talk to you soon. Thank you. Okay, Let's get some questions. 741 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 1: Go low pod, Go low pod is the Instagram. Go 742 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 1: low pod is the Instagram. Slide up into those d 743 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,239 Speaker 1: M s and get a question answered here on the show. 744 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: Joe from New York longtime listener to the Three Out podcasts. 745 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 1: Started listening to Go Low pod right before the Phoenix 746 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:42,280 Speaker 1: opened and have enjoyed the content. I enjoyed the content 747 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,359 Speaker 1: for someone like myself who has been trying to play 748 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 1: and watch more golf the past five years. Question for 749 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 1: the pod. Since New York started allowing mobile sports books 750 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 1: in January, such as FanDuel, this is my first year 751 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,879 Speaker 1: betting golf. I have sprinkled a few winners in top 752 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: ten bets the past couple of tournaments, and even took 753 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: Hovlin first round three balls, only to see him lose 754 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 1: that day to Horsel and catch fire the following day 755 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 1: in uh the Arnold Palmer. Do you prefer to stay 756 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 1: away from first and second round player round bets or 757 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: do you think it's worth playing that along with a 758 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 1: winner or top ten finish? Also, great hit on the 759 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,560 Speaker 1: Woodland top five. I tailed you on that and made 760 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,239 Speaker 1: some money myself. Good ship. Gary Woodland has been playing great. 761 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 1: I even sprinkled a little bit on Gary Woodland this week, 762 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 1: just twenty five dollars to win this tournament. Don't love him, 763 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,239 Speaker 1: but he's just been playing well. I have never done 764 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 1: the two round group betting. The only bets I've ever 765 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 1: done in my life. I've done a lot of winners. 766 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 1: I I bet a lot of winners. When I love 767 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: a winner, you know, I'll put a hundred two hundred dollars. 768 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 1: But it's not like let's say you bet five dollars 769 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 1: in an NFL game and that that's a lot of money. 770 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 1: But you know, or you bet a hundred dollars in 771 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 1: an NFL game, you wouldn't necessarily do that on a 772 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,959 Speaker 1: golfer just because you gotta beat a hundred forty people. 773 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 1: So betting outright winners is very, very difficult, right. We 774 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: we all know that I have had a lot of 775 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 1: success betting top fives and top tens. I hate Gary Woodland, 776 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: I hit Billy Horschel, I hit Alex Nor in the 777 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: week before. Uh, it's much easier to hit if you 778 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 1: feel good about a player, like ultimately, I love John 779 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 1: Rom this week betting him to outright win. John Rom, 780 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 1: whence the last time you won a tournament? I'll tell 781 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 1: you Tory Pond's us open to me. The smart play 782 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,880 Speaker 1: would be betting him to hit the top five. But 783 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: I'm getting fourteen to one. I put three and fifty 784 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: dollars on John rom John Ron wins the tournament. I 785 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:32,720 Speaker 1: went five grant like I'm going big, but I also 786 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 1: I put fifty bucks on Zander Shoffley to top ten 787 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 1: or top five. I put some money on Brooks kept 788 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 1: at the top five. I bet top five, top tens 789 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 1: and winners. I've I've done the group betting for the week. 790 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 1: Like last week, I had Hedeki to beat some people. 791 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 1: He didn't. He ended up not beating um, maybe Rory. 792 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,880 Speaker 1: He didn't beat a couple of guys. Maybe it was 793 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,360 Speaker 1: I forget who he didn't beat. It was Hovelin Hofland 794 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,480 Speaker 1: was also in the group. I I I would never 795 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 1: do a bet on just two rounds. I would do 796 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 1: it over a four round period. Now, sometimes your guy 797 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: might miss the cut, but I I would recommend going 798 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:11,759 Speaker 1: top fives in top tens and maybe the specific group 799 00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 1: betting over four days. That's that would be my bet. 800 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:19,280 Speaker 1: This weekend, I told my brother the bill Billy Horssel 801 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 1: looks like Patrick Bateman on the pc A tour. He 802 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 1: thought that was funny enough for me to d m 803 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 1: it to you. Just to be clear, I'm not accusing 804 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,879 Speaker 1: him of being a serial killer, but ship the look 805 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 1: his mannerisms, tell me I'm wrong. We've been listening to 806 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 1: all your contents at the beginning. Love the pod. Keep 807 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 1: stacking bills not bodies. Uh, Billy Horsell has some Patrick 808 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 1: Bateman vibes for sure. If you need to google it, 809 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,800 Speaker 1: just google it now. If you've watched the movie, was 810 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 1: that all a dream? Was he actually killing people? Or 811 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 1: was that just something he dreamed. I've always wondered that. 812 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,440 Speaker 1: I've never exactly had the answer, But yeah, Billy Horstell 813 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 1: is a different cat as someone who's played with Billy Horschel. 814 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 1: I asked him, I'm like, what's his d He just 815 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 1: says he's an intense guy in you know, some people 816 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 1: don't like them. Some people did. The guy that I 817 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 1: talked to this played with him on the PGA tour 818 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 1: liked them, enjoyed his intensity. That just thought he was different, 819 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 1: but in a good way. Fan enjoy the football talk 820 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: as well as the golf chats. Suggestion second golf pods 821 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 1: Sunday nights after the tour wraps up your thoughts. Also, 822 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,080 Speaker 1: what major do you think Max Holmer has the best 823 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 1: shot of winning this year? One thing I might do 824 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: I have a YouTube channel just John Middlecoff just my 825 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,120 Speaker 1: own YouTube channel I haven't posted to do in a while. 826 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,840 Speaker 1: Maybe after like the Players Championship the Majors, I'll just 827 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,240 Speaker 1: go on the YouTube channel and just give some thoughts 828 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,360 Speaker 1: on what just happened. Because I'm watching it, you know, 829 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:47,759 Speaker 1: I might as well do some content on it. So 830 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 1: if you go to the YouTube channel, my own YouTube channel, 831 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 1: John Middlecop subscribed to that, maybe that is where I 832 00:41:54,000 --> 00:42:00,480 Speaker 1: will start posting post UH Tour event golf content on Sunday. 833 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,319 Speaker 1: Do you think the golf ratings are gonna go up 834 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,920 Speaker 1: because people are able UH to work from home? I 835 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 1: know there's a growing love for the sport, but I 836 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 1: feel like just being able to have the option to 837 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,759 Speaker 1: turn it on in the background highly contributes to being 838 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,719 Speaker 1: drawn in instead of starting to watch a tournament halfway through. 839 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 1: That is a great question. I'm so biased and I'm 840 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 1: so close to the sun, like I watched so much golf. 841 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:26,320 Speaker 1: I'm not a great representation of like how great golf is. 842 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 1: It's like asking me, like how important football is now. 843 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:30,600 Speaker 1: I know, because we all see the ratings, football is 844 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 1: number one, but I tell you it's really important. But 845 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 1: I tell you that if football was down right to me, 846 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 1: golf feels really really big. But I play it, I 847 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 1: consume it, I talk about it. I think it has 848 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,360 Speaker 1: a chance now if I take my emotion out of it, 849 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,840 Speaker 1: I do think it's growth potential is extremely high because 850 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 1: it's one of the one sports that US guys and 851 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 1: women too. But like guys listening to this podcast, football 852 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 1: and the golf one they can play when you're years old. 853 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 1: We are not able to play football at forty years old. 854 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 1: There's no you know, I just had a great pickup 855 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 1: game at a Jerry's World. That doesn't happen. Really. The 856 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:08,360 Speaker 1: only sport you can play pick up is pick up basketball. 857 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 1: Even baseball, you're not playing fast pitch at forty. You 858 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 1: might play some beer league softball, but that's not baseball. 859 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 1: You can go play TPC Sagress. So this weekend million 860 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:22,880 Speaker 1: dollars the players. If if me and three people that 861 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,879 Speaker 1: are listening to this, we're like, hey, July, you want 862 00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 1: to play TPC SA grass Now my cost is five 863 00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:30,800 Speaker 1: or whatever. I don't know what the raid is to 864 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,320 Speaker 1: play there. It's probably not cheap. We go play it, 865 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: like we we can't go play at lambeau Field. You know, 866 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 1: we can't go play at Staples Center or I guess 867 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,280 Speaker 1: Crypto dot com. Right, we can't go play at MSG 868 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 1: shoe Baskets, but we can go play at Bethpage Black. 869 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 1: We can go play I mean some private courses we 870 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: won't be able to get on, but we go play 871 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:53,640 Speaker 1: Pebble Beach. We can go play pebble Beach. You know 872 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:57,719 Speaker 1: what's what's the what's the NFL equivalent for pebble Beach? Lambeau? Like, 873 00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 1: there's no getting on Lambeau, just a walk, let alone 874 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 1: throw the football. So I I think golf growth is 875 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 1: just is massive television ratings. I think it'll be something 876 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 1: we learn as time goes on. Gary Woodland lost so 877 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 1: much money on whole seventeen and eighteen. Nothing like going 878 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: eagle to take the lead and finishing double bogey that 879 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:25,720 Speaker 1: hurt personally. I like bidding matchups, unless it's the Masters 880 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 1: or something big. Do you think you could drop a 881 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:30,759 Speaker 1: ten fifteen pod on Saturdays after the cut line has 882 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 1: established and talk about guys you think will hold it 883 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 1: together and guys you think will fall apart. Maybe I 884 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 1: should just put some golf content up on Fridays and 885 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:44,680 Speaker 1: Sunday nights after the tournament. So going in after the 886 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,479 Speaker 1: cut and then again Sunday. Maybe maybe that's a lane 887 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 1: that I could take advantage of. I might. I just 888 00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 1: have to do that on YouTube the problem on the podcast. 889 00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 1: We got a football mail bag that comes out of 890 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 1: the weekend, and then I got a football pod that 891 00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 1: comes out like ultimately, listen, I love golf, but football 892 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,799 Speaker 1: the nucrative venture to talk about. But I just gotta 893 00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,359 Speaker 1: put a place to put my golf content, and luckily 894 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 1: got YouTube chain. We got a lot of content places 895 00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:11,719 Speaker 1: to go. What's your philosophy on practice swings? Do you 896 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 1: take a few to get a feel, really honed in 897 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 1: and dissect how to play, or just say fuck it, 898 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:19,880 Speaker 1: I'm just hitting the ball right now. I've played like 899 00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 1: twice in two two so if I was playing. Last 900 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,759 Speaker 1: time I played, I played like crap. You know, I'm 901 00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 1: a four, but I'm playing like an eight, and I 902 00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:30,839 Speaker 1: shot eighty one only because I made like three long 903 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,759 Speaker 1: puts on the back and a couple were birdies. I 904 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 1: did not. I played like I should have shot eighty eight. 905 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,839 Speaker 1: It was terrible. I was taking practice swings like every 906 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 1: whole I could not get a feel. Now when I'm 907 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,040 Speaker 1: in the summer and in the swing of things. And 908 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:46,239 Speaker 1: I'm playing well and shooting seventy sev seventy nine, but 909 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 1: hitting the ball well, I just line up and swing. 910 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,399 Speaker 1: So to me, if I'm playing well, I'm like kept 911 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:55,160 Speaker 1: goo DJ let a rip. If I'm not playing well, 912 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 1: I'm trying to find even though I don't even know 913 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:00,440 Speaker 1: what I'm finding, but it feels like, you know, I'm 914 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,239 Speaker 1: trying to find trying to find that slot, trying to 915 00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 1: find where my hands are, even though I'm not Tiger 916 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,000 Speaker 1: Woods here. So it's to me, it's all about how 917 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,359 Speaker 1: the game's going. If you're if you're hitting it well, 918 00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:15,720 Speaker 1: get up there and let it rip. I hate slow players. 919 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 1: Roy looking solid so far, glad. I tuned in yesterday 920 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 1: while working in the yard sixty in Indiana. Nice day. 921 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:26,359 Speaker 1: Do you watch the main feed or follow a group 922 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:28,840 Speaker 1: feed like Rory this morning when betting on a golfer. 923 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 1: Uh ESPN plus gotta give him credit has done a 924 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:37,760 Speaker 1: great job with golf. I usually watched like I'm recording 925 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:39,919 Speaker 1: this on Tuesdays. When I get up on Thursday morning, 926 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,320 Speaker 1: I would imagine the first group you know on the 927 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:46,560 Speaker 1: players goes out of like seven am floor at the time. 928 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,839 Speaker 1: So I'll good about four o'clock my time. I'm gonna 929 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,359 Speaker 1: get up probably about five o'clock, and I'll come into 930 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 1: my office. I'll make a cup of coffee, and I 931 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,200 Speaker 1: won't I'll pretend to work and I just have the 932 00:46:57,239 --> 00:47:00,720 Speaker 1: players on. I will turn on the main feed usually 933 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 1: because the main feed, especially early in the morning, they'll 934 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 1: just cover the top guys. Now, when it comes to Friday, 935 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:11,399 Speaker 1: like afternoon, you know, if they're not showing rom I'll 936 00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 1: probably just follow wrong. Now, this one might be unique. 937 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:16,360 Speaker 1: I'm maybe I'll just follow wrong because I have a 938 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:20,719 Speaker 1: you know, he wins. I got five thousand dollars. Uh. 939 00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:23,359 Speaker 1: Last question a bit of a fantasy hypothetical that might 940 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:25,799 Speaker 1: take some time to think over. If you could draft 941 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 1: a line up for eighteen holes number one through eighteen, 942 00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 1: what is your dream eighteen? So, for example, you can 943 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,480 Speaker 1: only pick a twelfth hole once, so twelve A Augusta 944 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:38,480 Speaker 1: is your twelfth hole on the card. Another would be 945 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:42,279 Speaker 1: like your eighteenth toll could be St. Andrew's. What does 946 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,880 Speaker 1: your entire eight team come out to be. I'll be honest, 947 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:48,480 Speaker 1: my whole at Augusta would not be the twelfth hole. 948 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,719 Speaker 1: Absolutely no chance my whole at Augusta would be a 949 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,360 Speaker 1: part three. My whole at Augusta, And if it was 950 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 1: going to be a part three, it actually might be 951 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 1: the sixteenth hole. But I think it would be the 952 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:02,120 Speaker 1: thirteen toll would be my whole at Augusta. The dog 953 00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:05,879 Speaker 1: leg left par five. Even though I don't play a draw, 954 00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 1: I play a cut, so it would actually be very 955 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,279 Speaker 1: I'd have to rope draw three would but I think 956 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 1: it would be whole thirteen or whole fifteen. I'd want 957 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:16,320 Speaker 1: to have a chance. It actually might be who fifteen 958 00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 1: because it's a straight away part five, or maybe pole eighteen. 959 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:22,840 Speaker 1: I think if I was gonna do eighteen, the irony 960 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:28,800 Speaker 1: two of holes. Most courses, you don't think about the 961 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,319 Speaker 1: front nine, right think about Pebble Beach. You think about 962 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,560 Speaker 1: whole eighteen. You know, I guess on Pebble Beach you 963 00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:37,400 Speaker 1: would think about whole six. Pebble Beach is unique. You 964 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 1: do think about the front nine. But Augusta you think 965 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 1: about the back nine. You know, some of the US 966 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:44,399 Speaker 1: Open courses, Olympic Club you think about the back nine. 967 00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 1: Um Riv, I feel like you feel about the back 968 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:54,280 Speaker 1: nine to whole tennant Riv whole eighteen at Pebble Whole 969 00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: thirteen or fifteen at Augusta a whole seventeen at TPC 970 00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:06,879 Speaker 1: Scottsdale Short Part four. That's a good question. I haven't 971 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:13,480 Speaker 1: played enough golf courses to know on personal experience. I'd 972 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: have to ask some people. That's a that's a hell 973 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:18,720 Speaker 1: of a question. What's the my favorite hole at Olympic 974 00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:22,400 Speaker 1: Club spy Glass? Yeah, I mean I could put together, 975 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 1: of course. That's that's a good little one. I appreciate everyone. Again, 976 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: go low pod following on Instagram, slide up into those 977 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,279 Speaker 1: d m s and we'll keep the golf content coming. 978 00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:33,840 Speaker 1: I just might have to put up some golf t 979 00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:37,719 Speaker 1: uh content on my YouTube page Friday afternoon Sunday now 980 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:40,239 Speaker 1: sometimes Friday, you know Mount you know, rubbing elbows with 981 00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:43,879 Speaker 1: the people, haven't havn't some Bruskies?
