1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: Now, the Shotgun Starting Golf is full of mathematics. There's

2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: a lot of setup work that we have to do

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 1: in order to make a tournament work. So I'm going

4
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:12,399
Speaker 1: to demonstrate to you just exactly how we do a

5
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 1: shotgun start here and.

6
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 2: Alright, alright, alright, did no man.

7
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 3: Dart? Your greetings and welcome to a Wednesday edition of

8
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 3: The Shotgun Start. It is July fourteenth, Andy, how we

9
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:46,519
Speaker 3: do it?

10
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:53,160
Speaker 2: Brendan, I'm doing well, I guess I'm It's a little bittersweet.

11
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm going to be able to

12
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 2: deal with this Open Championship. I'm gonna be missing my buddy,

13
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 2: my brother from another mother, Zach Johnson. I don't know

14
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 2: how I'm gonna deal with without the two time major

15
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 2: winner there. It's it's a bummer. Obviously sucks you can't

16
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: come over, but that's uh. I don't know if I'm

17
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 2: gonna be able to cope with him not be playing

18
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:18,279
Speaker 2: this year's Open.

19
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 3: This is an inauspicious start. I said, how you doing?

20
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 3: And I got thirty seconds of black screen in silence.

21
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 3: Heard no, Brendan. The Wi Fi is already on the friends.

22
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 3: It must be major championship week. I just standing there

23
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 3: silent as you went out, and I came back to

24
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 3: you talking about Zach Johnson. So we're primed and ready

25
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,119
Speaker 3: for our major championship.

26
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,759
Speaker 2: I'm bittersweet if you missed it, I'm bitter. It's bitter sweet.

27
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 3: I got got Zach. You know, we don't need to

28
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 3: get into it. Who knows what he's doing. He's out

29
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 3: there harvest and corn on a John Deere tractor this

30
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 3: week instead of being able to play the Open Championship. Uh,

31
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 3: it's a major week. It's it's after a year away.

32
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 3: It's not just it's not just another major. You know. Look,

33
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 3: we've had a lot of the super season, a lot

34
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 3: of intrigue that the pandemic has created, a lot of

35
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 3: you know, unique circumstances, not by choice. Often you got

36
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 3: a November Masters of fallow Us Open, you know, with

37
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 3: no fans, but we didn't get it open. We have

38
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 3: two years now off from the Open, so it's kind

39
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 3: of I think an extra bit of anticipation for this one.

40
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,679
Speaker 3: I know, I am extremely excited. I've started to look

41
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 3: at more and more about Royal Saint George's here. More

42
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 3: and more people talk about it. I'm sure we'll get

43
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 3: into it in this pot. I cannot wait. I think

44
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 3: I don't know. You could pop me if I'm wrong here,

45
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 3: But I would say like Twitter more or less makes

46
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 3: a lot of things worse, many things worse. I do

47
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 3: think it has this this sort of Internet era, not

48
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 3: just Twitter has has sort of enhanced the Open Championship

49
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 3: in a way that maybe it didn't enjoy in the

50
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 3: nineties or eighties or early two thousands. I think there's

51
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 3: some element to Twitter of like shared experience. You're out

52
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 3: there watching at five in the morning, and I'm out

53
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 3: there watching at five in the morning. We're having a

54
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 3: bunch of fun. There's something too authenticity of it Open.

55
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 3: You know, Twitter doesn't do fakeness real well, like as

56
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 3: as you know. That's why the PGA Tour is often

57
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 3: a common target, Yeah, with some of their social media videos,

58
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 3: some of their course setups, some of their just you know,

59
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 3: business top tens and things like that. There's an authenticity

60
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 3: to the Open. It's one hundred and forty nine years.

61
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 3: This is one hundred and forty ninth edition. It usually

62
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 3: looks very similar, whether the courses are different or not.

63
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 3: There's just sort of a tradition to it, and I

64
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 3: think Twitter appreciates that. And I think the Internet era

65
00:03:55,360 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 3: has certainly elevated it in a way that that maybe

66
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 3: it's super charged it, I think in a way that

67
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 3: maybe it didn't have in the nineties and two thousands.

68
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'd just gotten older and learned

69
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 3: to appreciate it myself a little bit more. But I

70
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 3: think it's become my favorite week of the year just

71
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 3: because of all the unique aspects of it.

72
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of things that are true

73
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 2: about I think the authenticity of this championship, the oldest

74
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 2: chant the history, obviously is a big thing. I think

75
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:29,720
Speaker 2: the different style of play makes for a lot of

76
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 2: you know, intrigue going into the week. I think, actually,

77
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 2: you know, seeing these guys have to deal with a

78
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 2: lot of different elements and having to judge how the

79
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 2: ball is going to roll out and all that stuff,

80
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 2: you know, lends a large helping hand. And then I

81
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 2: think obviously the different golf courses the RODA is always

82
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 2: compelling because you've got something different year after year after year.

83
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 2: I mean, as great as Augusta National is, you know,

84
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 2: you go there and you know what to expect and

85
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 2: there's always something, you know, whether there's always stuff to

86
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 2: brush up on because you're only visiting place every you know,

87
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 2: nine years, right, And I think that's that's one of

88
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 2: the cool things about the Open is the RODA, is

89
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 2: the unique aspect of each ROTA course, the different different

90
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 2: little intricacies Like this week, you know, you've got a

91
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 2: lot of winners that people would describe as fluky.

92
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 3: Uh.

93
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 2: You got a golf course that was removed from the

94
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 2: Rota because of how quirky and uh, you know it was,

95
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 2: and how it's kind of really compelling history with the

96
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 2: with Purvis, uh, the guy that they started it, yeah,

97
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 2: and uh and how what he what he was trying

98
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 2: to build, and how the land just didn't allow it.

99
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 2: Garrett Morrison did a great podcast about just the history

100
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 2: of the golf course and what it was set out

101
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 2: to be and you know, kind of the how the

102
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 2: land was so weird that it didn't allow it. I

103
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 2: just think there's this golf tournament knows exactly what it

104
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 2: is and it doesn't try and be anything other than

105
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 2: what it is. And I think that's what, at the

106
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 2: end of the day is what makes it such an

107
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 2: enjoyable week.

108
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 3: Yep, and I think yeah, it's obviously on an incredible

109
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 3: heater here. Also in the last decade, whether you have

110
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 3: winners like Phil at Mirfield, Rory at Liverpool, Speed at Birkdale,

111
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 3: Stenson and Phil going back and forth, the Carnoustie sort

112
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 3: of the mannic pace of Carnoustie with Tiger even in

113
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 3: the mix and Rory in the mix again Ernie, And

114
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,919
Speaker 3: it's just been since we were last at Royal Saint George's.

115
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 3: I think it's been the most consistently dramatic or delivering

116
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 3: major on Sundays at least since we were at St.

117
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,039
Speaker 3: George's and twenty eleven this will be the first one

118
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 3: at Saint George's when I'd say the internet is really

119
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 3: has its fastball up and running. I don't know that

120
00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 3: twenty eleven sort of Twitter or or golf writing was

121
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,359
Speaker 3: at its peak. Then you could kind of get that.

122
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 3: I guess that's my larger point is, like you you

123
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 3: have to prove it. You can't just listen to the broadcast.

124
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 3: You can't just listen to someone who's a brand partner

125
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 3: or someone who's a paid spokesman for the organization hosting

126
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 3: an event, whether that's a tour say this is great,

127
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 3: you've got to actually prove it. And the Open seems

128
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 3: to prove it in style and form and substance in

129
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 3: drama year over year. And I think that's where the

130
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 3: Internet has come into sort of like as I don't

131
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 3: want to say it's a gatekeeping mechanism, but it's like

132
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 3: it's a fair assessor, right, It's not like a paid sponsor,

133
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 3: it's not like a broadcast partner. And I think the

134
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 3: Open has been enhanced by that sort of appreciation machine

135
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:49,119
Speaker 3: that exists on the internet, Twitter and elsewhere. So again

136
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 3: on a heater, and let's just I guess let's go

137
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 3: to Saint George's. We're talking a little bit about it.

138
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 3: You've touched on it. I just mentioned it's been a decade.

139
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 3: I don't know where you were. Twenty eleven. I was god,

140
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 3: I yes, I was not even married yet and now

141
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 3: I have four kids, so ten years is a long time.

142
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 3: Darren Clark, of course, the defending champ. I you know,

143
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 3: you hear it like I'm not the expert here, but

144
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 3: I hear like a primary association with it is like

145
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 3: it stakes. It's there's a Jack quote about the farther

146
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 3: south to go the worst it gets, and this is

147
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 3: southernmost Rhoda. Stop you hear it as just sort of

148
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 3: being like ho hum or, just like it's just a

149
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 3: plug in the rotation to give other stops a year off.

150
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 3: And obviously it's been a decade. And then I started

151
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 3: like reading and watching the videos and watching even a

152
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 3: golf channel last night, and I'm I'm super excited for it.

153
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 3: I can't wait. It seems like it could drive some

154
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 3: of these guys, battie. It seems like there's a big

155
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 3: debate over love versus work, which I guess quirk is

156
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 3: a total It's like a euphemism for this course sucks.

157
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 3: You've got Brooksy today saying it's a favorite.

158
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's another good buzzword that says nothing. Oh it's

159
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 2: nuanced vibe.

160
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,199
Speaker 3: Got a great vibe. I think would be to another

161
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 3: empty one. But yeah, I guess quirk is like an

162
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,199
Speaker 3: offensive term that the captain or the folks there are

163
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 3: are if you call it quirky, they are pissed when

164
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 3: you say that. I saw that on what golf channel

165
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 3: last night? So I can't wait. It is super tons

166
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,079
Speaker 3: like I'm fascinating.

167
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing is like quirk. If you're talking

168
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 2: about championship golf and you say quirk, is it provides

169
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 2: like a negative connotation. If you're talking to people that

170
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 2: you know understand golf architecture and enjoy golf like unique

171
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 2: golf courses, you say quirk, it like makes makes the

172
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 2: want to just like jump and run over to your

173
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 2: golf course. And it's really I've talked a lot of

174
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 2: architecture friends. I haven't been there. I've talked a lot

175
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 2: of architecture friends, and all of them speak very highly

176
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 2: of it. And I was, you know, I was talking

177
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 2: with jaeger Kovich who's a young architect, and Clyde Johnson

178
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:24,439
Speaker 2: who's a young architect that's based in the UK, and

179
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:28,319
Speaker 2: I was watching Golf Digest, like fly over of all eighteen,

180
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 2: and I said, you know, it looks like they got

181
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 2: just really great greens, Like there's a lot of like

182
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 2: interesting ones with like you know, some runoffs and fronts

183
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 2: and different cool little sections. And they're like, oh yeah,

184
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 2: like it's got great greens. And then you look at

185
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 2: the land and the land is really dynamic, like you've

186
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,439
Speaker 2: got some big dunes, you've got some small rivets that

187
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 2: you know. And I think this is where a lot

188
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 2: of the pros don't like it is the ball will

189
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,839
Speaker 2: bounce all over the place. You don't know, the ball

190
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 2: hits the ground and you see, especially like the photo

191
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 2: that everybody's talking about is like the fourteenth hole. The

192
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 2: tour posts a great photo of the fourteenth hole, the

193
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 2: short part four with those like kind of like it's

194
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 2: almost like they're like ridge lines, like little mini ridges

195
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 2: that run through it. You hit one side of it

196
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 2: just bounces fifteen yards right. You hit the other orlando

197
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 2: yard left of that and it might bounce fifteen yards left.

198
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 2: So that's where the players don't like it. But and

199
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 2: there's a randomness to an element of luck really to it.

200
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 2: But I think what it does is it's going to

201
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 2: just test the mental fortitude even more, which I think

202
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 2: we all like. We all like when players when a

203
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 2: course gets a little underplayer skin. I think that's something

204
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 2: that this golf course can do. It's got a great

205
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 2: set of greens. Jaeger and Clyde were saying that like

206
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 2: it it's got the best greens of any course in

207
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 2: the RODA, you know, along with like Port Rush, Mirrorfield

208
00:11:59,160 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 2: and the Old Course.

209
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 3: Like that.

210
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 2: They're like it's at the top of the list in

211
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 2: terms of greens, and then you the variety of the land.

212
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 2: You've got the big dunes on the front nine that

213
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,679
Speaker 2: you play out into in the beginning of the round,

214
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 2: which are much more like the Irish golf courses where

215
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 2: you have the dramatic land, and then you come back

216
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 2: and you've got that really nice little rumpled stuff that

217
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 2: you see in Scotland, you see at the Old Course

218
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 2: where the ball can bounce any number of ways. So

219
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,959
Speaker 2: I think, you know, when you look at at port Rush,

220
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,440
Speaker 2: it's got shades of port Rush on the front nine,

221
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 2: which everybody loved and we hadn't seen. And it's got

222
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 2: greens that are you know, simpler like in port Rush's category.

223
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 2: And then you go to the backside and you get

224
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 2: that really cool like Scotland links land.

225
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,959
Speaker 3: Another thing that I found interesting in reading and watching

226
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 3: the last few days is it's not an out and

227
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,719
Speaker 3: it there're different winds, The different directions the hole is

228
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 3: kind of are blender of all sorts of different directions.

229
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 3: You're not like opposite of Kila maybe necessarily you're into

230
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 3: the ind or with the wind for maybe nine I

231
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 3: don't know. Q. I guess wasn't precisely into every wind,

232
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 3: you know, the same wind, but it does seem like

233
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 3: the routing is to fro in every which way on

234
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 3: both nines.

235
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 2: Here's a I was reading a bunch of articles yesterday.

236
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 2: That's I kind of did yesterday. I just read a

237
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 2: bunch of stuff and I came across a twenty eleven

238
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 2: Bob Harrig article on ESPN that was talking about what

239
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 2: all the players hating it? You know, it was the

240
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 2: whole premise of the article. And here's Tom Layman. I

241
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 2: think it's the most unpredictable venues I've played. There are

242
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,319
Speaker 2: so many unique shapes on the golf course where the

243
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 2: ball gets kicked one way or another. It requires a

244
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 2: lot of course management and really understanding how to play

245
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 2: the course to do it right. Probably see the course too,

246
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, though it probably could do it all

247
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 2: from Google Earth. I'll give you an example, the seventeenth hole.

248
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 2: The areas where drives come down, there are a million

249
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 2: bumps all over the fairway. Guys were so upset because

250
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 2: they hit a good looking drive, hit the side of

251
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 2: a bump and it would kick one way or another.

252
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 2: And run down into the high crap. But just short

253
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 2: of that is a real flat area. The course was

254
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 2: designed to hit a shot into the flat area and

255
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 2: run into the bumps. You can keep yourself in the fairway.

256
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 2: To me, understanding the strategy of the course is what

257
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 2: is very very interesting to me. It's very enjoyable.

258
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 3: Okay, So I've tried to put myself in the player

259
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 3: like Devil's advocate, like I obviously as a viewer I

260
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 3: love this. Probably as a player as a mid high

261
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 3: handicap or high for sure, playing it myself, i'd have fun,

262
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 3: But trying to be Devil's advocate, like can you empathize

263
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 3: with them of like these guys who hit a great

264
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 3: shot down the middle and get.

265
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 2: Like I can. But Layman, I think Layman hit the

266
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 2: nail on the head there. He talked about how there's

267
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 2: a flat area, So where you get in trouble with

268
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 2: those humps is when you land on them. Right, if

269
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 2: your ball's already on the ground rolling, it's not gonna

270
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 2: get the huge deflection. It's when you land on it.

271
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 2: So I guess you know, when you look at the holes,

272
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 2: if there's a flat area to land the ball, that's

273
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 2: where you should be landing the ball, and anybody that

274
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 2: pushes it up, you know, into that area where they

275
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 2: could land on it, they're taking on risk. You know,

276
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 2: it's not necessarily like playing up there is not you know,

277
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 2: if there's a bunker there, nobody complaining. But because the

278
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 2: ball lands on the ground and bounces one direction, they

279
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 2: feel the need to complain. And those contours, I mean,

280
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 2: that's what's gonna make this week's I always talk about this.

281
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 2: I always talk about how I think the most fun

282
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 2: thing in golf is when the ball hits the ground

283
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 2: and it goes somewhere. And this week we're go see

284
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 2: the ball hit the ground and go all over the place.

285
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 2: And it's been really soft because of the but I

286
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 2: saw that, I mean I did investigative reporting. It was

287
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 2: really diving in hard. I saw it was supposed to

288
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 2: be sunny and windy for like the next all the

289
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 2: way through the weekend, so we should get see it

290
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 2: crisp up. And I believe the super new superintendent there

291
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 2: has done a lot of wonderful things. We got an

292
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 2: article coming up on the on the Friday Egg tomorrow

293
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 2: on Wednesday today is if you follow the count of

294
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 2: today's podcast that that details some of the things that

295
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 2: they've done to get the course playing playing more firm

296
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 2: because that's been one of the things that's hampered a

297
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 2: couple of the championships is the soft soft conditions out here.

298
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 3: Who did I see I think Bama Bearcat had a

299
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 3: tweet about.

300
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 2: Prince about Princes Yeah, I had that too.

301
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 3: Their work done there like has lowered the water level,

302
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 3: like the more run better runoff. I don't know. That

303
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 3: was just a tweet in the whole area, so it

304
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 3: could be interesting. Then firmness. One more thing on the

305
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 3: course before we move on Bryce or Brooksy. Not to

306
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 3: confuse it to Brooksy today twice used in his you know,

307
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 3: sort of monologue about not my favorite course. It is

308
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,439
Speaker 3: what it is, I'll go play it, use the phrase

309
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 3: a couple shots or shots to nothing. So it's like,

310
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 3: mind this sort of uncertainty, this sort of yeah, pucker

311
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 3: up of just sending the ball out into the great

312
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 3: unknown that I think as viewers it's hard to capture

313
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 3: totally totally as viewers, but if you're on the tee

314
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 3: on the grounds, it certainly adds an element of sort

315
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,679
Speaker 3: of anxiety for the player. But again, that adds to

316
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 3: also the unpredictability of the bumps and humps and bounces

317
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 3: once it gets on the ground, there is that sort

318
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 3: of anxiety you can appreciate of them quote shots to nothing.

319
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:55,439
Speaker 3: So uh, I think overall just a delightful This is

320
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 3: a total reversal change. And maybe I'm a prisoner of

321
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 3: the moment because we're here in the week is a

322
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 3: but like we started this year saying like, is this

323
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 3: the worst year for major men's major venues?

324
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:05,880
Speaker 2: Right?

325
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:07,679
Speaker 3: You get the Saint George. And this is not to

326
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,880
Speaker 3: suggest like you knows, there's a lot of great ones

327
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,239
Speaker 3: on the British Open Road up. They're all very very

328
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 3: many of them are very very good. But I've arrived

329
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 3: at this this two days before just really really excited

330
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 3: for Saint George's in the same way I was for

331
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 3: Kiowa maybe at the start of the year, where I

332
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 3: can't you know, Tory will set aside from now We

333
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 3: talked about that plenty, but I do think it's gonna

334
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 3: end up being a really strong, strong venue. Now if

335
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 3: that does that mean we need a you know, a

336
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 3: great winner or a great battle one two punch down

337
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 3: down the down the final stretch on Sunday to prove it.

338
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 3: I don't know. That's always the age old debate.

339
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 2: So I've got I don't I've got a flashback already

340
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 2: queued up. We might release it earlier this week, you know,

341
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 2: we might might be a Wednesday episode that or Thursday

342
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 2: episode that went Arizona Whennesday, But I don't want to

343
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 2: step on it too much. But Bill Rogers won in

344
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,880
Speaker 2: eighty one. It's about eighty one in totality.

345
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 3: It's like a sleek player at the time and then became.

346
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he won Player of the Year that year. Yeah,

347
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 2: so he had a word so he like twenty Americans

348
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 2: didn't show up. This is actually kind of similar to

349
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 2: this year, where obviously for completely different reasons. So Bill

350
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,439
Speaker 2: Rogers said I'd been worried about coming over. This is

351
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 2: from a Jenkins SI article. I've been worried about coming

352
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 2: over because so many guys told me what a lousy

353
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 2: course this was going to be and how expensive it was.

354
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 2: I don't know how they could feel that way. This

355
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,399
Speaker 2: was one of the greatest courses I've ever played. There's

356
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 2: too much to gain from playing well in the British Open.

357
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 2: You can't let the expense part of it, spoil the

358
00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:01,679
Speaker 2: opportunity of coming over here a little advice for the

359
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 2: secret to our guys.

360
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 3: The anchor boy, the anchorman Scott mccaren. Oh, I thought

361
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 3: that was a that was a great you know, we

362
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 3: tried to present our opinions on Brandall Live from Pretty

363
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 3: try to be fair with that. But that was a

364
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 3: great segment last night where they were talking about like

365
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:24,719
Speaker 3: they went to Ba Tomboy Billy talking about the quarantine.

366
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 3: They can't go out, they can't have to make their

367
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,880
Speaker 3: own meals, they have to can't go grocery shopping and

368
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 3: Leonard and I don't like dude like these guys. Hagen

369
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 3: took a boat over for a week. It was like

370
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,640
Speaker 3: a month commitment to play this event. Leonard was talking

371
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 3: about how when he would go over, you had to qualify.

372
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 3: This is not long ago, not that you'd have to qualify.

373
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 3: You have to get there like Thursday, play thirty six

374
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 3: holes of qualifying on like Sunday Monday. Talked about the

375
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 3: one the one venue where they did qualify and they

376
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 3: had no the range was just a field. So he

377
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 3: would pack like thirty or forty golf balls. When he

378
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 3: left for Britain, and he had to just hit him

379
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,439
Speaker 3: into the field and pick him up. I mean, this

380
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 3: is like the nineties, so I don't know to hear

381
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 3: that these guys can't go the grocery store or go

382
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 3: to the pubs. Billy Boy. Billy Boy was talking.

383
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 2: About how much available loved.

384
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,479
Speaker 3: He was on Sky today doing the stand up on

385
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,879
Speaker 3: the cart, he was at Cara Banks this morning, that

386
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 3: he was on Todd Lewis last night. Guy is just

387
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 3: like the facto. He's ringing the bell all over Sandwich.

388
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 3: It's unbelievable just making announcements.

389
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 2: He might be breaking quarantine rules by all of his appearances.

390
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 2: They should have limited appearances. That's what we really really

391
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 2: got under Billy Boy's skin, as if they limited his air.

392
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 3: He's just so somebody said, they call him Availabilly. So

393
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 3: he was saying, you know, and we can't go the pubs.

394
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 3: I you know, great thing about coming over here is

395
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 3: I love to talk to the people. I was like, huh,

396
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 3: I just don't see Horsell in the pubs talking to people,

397
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 3: rubbing elbows with the people. Maybe he does, but anyway,

398
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 3: I thought that was a fun contrast and the guys.

399
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 3: I don't know, I want to say, there's bitching and

400
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,679
Speaker 3: moaning about them not being able to have their chefs

401
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,880
Speaker 3: and having to drive themselves to the course, but there's

402
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 3: a little undercurrent about how they're they're you know, they're

403
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,679
Speaker 3: bearing that cross of the modern this twenty twenty one regulation.

404
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:23,399
Speaker 2: So anyways, I mean it's again, I don't want to

405
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 2: go back into this, but when you think about like

406
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:29,120
Speaker 2: the simplicity of what they're being asked to do, it's

407
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,199
Speaker 2: like just chill out in your house, Like just just

408
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,360
Speaker 2: hang out. Like it goes back to like like when

409
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,679
Speaker 2: you think about like and I was never a good student.

410
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 2: This is like I was not good at this. But

411
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 2: like when you think about the simplicity of studying, it's

412
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 2: like all studying is is sitting in a chair and reading.

413
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 2: But it's like the hardest thing to do. Like all

414
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,120
Speaker 2: they're saying is like just hang out by yourself.

415
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 3: Get it done, memorize it, knock it out. Yeah yeah,

416
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,959
Speaker 3: all right, let's continue on. Should do an ad read

417
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:03,080

00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,200

426
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 3: two days. I fill the entire One of my buddies

427
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 3: asked me, like for the precise measurement, how many scoops

428
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:32,679

Speaker 3: fill the grinder with as many beans as it'll take,

430
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 3: and I grind them and I dump them in. I

431
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 3: make it as big as I can, the whole film.

432
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 2: Maybe you should do a video. Maybe you should do

433
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 2: a video about it, like my cul through video.

434
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:48,399

469
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:48,120

00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,880
Speaker 3: following in this recent lineage of Monty leading us off

475
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,439
Speaker 3: at Troon and what was you know, Sandy Lyle and

477
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:10,160

00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 3: that's Peacock is starting right at one thirty. If you're

482
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,240

00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 3: ad for it. The promo features all the pictures of

497
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 3: the old event in Auburn, Alabama, like it's on the lake.

498
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 3: All these people in Kentucky were so offended, like that

499
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 3: is absolutely not our golf course. They're shown in the

00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, not team event. I think that that's one that

508
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 2: could be greatly elevated with a new week and a

509
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:56,959
Speaker 2: new golf course.

510
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 3: What is the golf course? Ran rap, no sacks.

511
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 2: It's like Midland, so bad.

512
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:10,480

518
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,640
Speaker 3: won the US Women's Amitur last year and now she's

519

520
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 3: She's fully eligible, but that's kind of like the reverse, right,

521
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 3: It's like winning you know, it's like, I don't know,

522
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 3: winning an NBA championship as a rookie and then going

523
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,959
Speaker 3: back and getting to play in the NCAA tournament like

524
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 3: she's just gonna she's already in line for medalist honors

525

Speaker 3: at Columbia. That's one hundred anniversary of them having the

526
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,640

00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 3: had the Boys Junior oh three, won by Brian Harmon,

528
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,640

00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 3: that he wore in two thousand and three this week

530
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 3: at Royal Saint George's. So that is your schedule for

531
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 3: the week. You have the event of the week.

532
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 2: It's the Open. Also, I wanted before anybody gets that

533
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 2: I misspoke earlier. I think I said the fifteenth hole

534
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 2: was the short part four fourteenth, it's the twelfth. It's fifteenth,

535
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 2: the fifteenth the Suez Canal hole. I'm sorry I mixed those,

536
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 2: or fourteen to the Sue Canal.

537
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 3: Twelve is the one you're talking about. This goes right,

538
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 3: is that right? Yeah?

539
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 2: It's that short part four Yeah, course, yeah, Jog's right,

540
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 2: and it's got all the bunkers by the green hole

541
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 2: and fourteen fourteenth Suez Canal.

542
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 3: Fourteen is the one where it's part five obviously where

543
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 3: you did pump it into Prince's the other golf course, right,

544
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 3: h yeah, sort of amazing rumors about DJ. There's always

545
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 3: rumors about DJ what he did in eleven, like he

546
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 3: took a helicopter ride and partied somewhere the night before.

547
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 3: Who knows if that's true, But anyways, fourteen is where

548
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 3: he pumped it out of bounds. All right, Open is

549
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 3: the event of the week. Do you want to do

550
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 3: some Uh, let's do one and done or you want

551
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 3: to wait for that, Well, you like to wait for

552
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 3: that for majors, here's my pick to win.

553
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 2: Okay, let's do some favorite we.

554
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 3: Got, we got used golf facts, hollering about the draw,

555
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 3: screaming about the draw. Still no affiliation with Patrick Reed

556
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 3: allegedly right says says, you know when they got caught

557
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 3: at Tory, it's like, I don't know what that is,

558
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 3: I don't know who that is. But yet it's tweeting

559
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 3: with just an incredible interest in Patrick Reid's tea time

560
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 3: at the Open Championship.

561
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,959
Speaker 2: Do you think they're mad about do you think use

562
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 2: golf facts? All this is? Really it's not about the draw.

563
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 2: It's more about the fact that he's paired with camp Smith.

564
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 3: Who called him a cheater at the after How many

565
00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 3: times does period golf have to start laterally, not just

566
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 3: quote all caps, all the majors, but regular events too,

567
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 3: So we're not just talking majors, RNA, PGA, US Open Golf,

568
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 3: PGA Tour, all tag his last three majors he started

569
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 3: at four fifteen, five fifteen and now three fifteen tea

570
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 3: times by world rank. And it's a draw quote unquote,

571
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 3: let's see it. So what are they looking for? Like

572
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 3: a draw show where they like pulled him in the

573
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 3: hopper and pull out names. So they're mad, they're with

574
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 3: what it's Rory.

575
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 2: Right, Rory, Rory, Rory and Campson broke. What did Rory

576
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 2: do to his service?

577
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 3: I think I saw they were playing a practice round.

578
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 2: Pe Reid.

579
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, today, Rory has kind of always defended read for

580
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 3: some reason. I said, he's like unfairly picked on and

581
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 3: just like a subject of social media. I don't know.

582
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 3: Maybe Rory's running use golf facts and we don't know

583
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 3: about it, but he does occasionally more than most defend

584
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 3: Patrick Greeden seems to like Patrick greed So we got

585
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 3: that worked up about the draw. Of course, the grand

586
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 3: tradition with the Open is everybody off the same tee.

587
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 3: They've got, you know, fourteen hours a daylight, although this

588
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 3: is a Southern venue, but they've got daylight for hours.

589
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 3: Everybody's off the first tee starting at six thirty local

590
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 3: time and going to four o'clock four fifteen. I saw

591
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 3: I tell you about this. You see Jimmy Walker just

592
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 3: they completely stashed, stashed at like four oh five, just

593
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 3: surrounded the guys won a major championship, surrounded by sort

594
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 3: of these open qualifiers, and he's going at four o'clock.

595
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 3: That's really late. He's paired with Ricardo Chellia and Yuki

596
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 3: and Amory before the final group of Ricard, carl Berg,

597
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 3: Dick Carl.

598
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 2: I wanted to talk about this group.

599
00:32:55,680 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 3: Carl Berg, Kano and Nicholas Poppleton the most English in

600
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 3: the English Championship this week, Rick, Nicholas Poppleton. Either way,

601
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 3: Jimmy Walker, there's not a major winner in sight within

602
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 3: twenty minutes of his tea time, and he's going in

603
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 3: the second to last group. So and also I think

604
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 3: might be his last Open for a while, given twenty

605
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 3: sixteen five year exemptions run out.

606
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 2: I believe. I am certain this is Poppleton's first major.

607
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 2: I believe this is Nagano's first major. And carl Berg

608
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 2: hasn't played once since twenty sixteen. And they put these

609
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 2: guys at four fifteen pm. Do you know, do you

610
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 2: have any Can you imagine what that day is like

611
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 2: for them? They're sitting around waiting to play their first major,

612
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 2: Like what would you do?

613
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 3: Well?

614
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 2: You know, like imagine having like the biggest, you know,

615
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 2: start of your life, biggest moment of your life if

616
00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 2: you're a lawyer, like biggest court case of your life

617
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 2: or first court case of your life that you have

618
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 2: to talk and you just have to center around until

619
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:11,879
Speaker 2: four fifteen, like with nothing to do. They don't have

620
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 2: anything like they would have might go work out, maybe

621
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 2: they go to the course. I don't I don't know.

622
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 2: I don't know what you would do all day and

623
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 2: you do not finish.

624
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,440
Speaker 3: I mean obviously there have been fifty one groups that

625
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 3: go ahead of you. You finish it like nine forty.

626
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,439
Speaker 3: I would say, you know, it's like it's like nine

627
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 3: thirty nine forty. Then you're tea and off Friday. You're

628
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:37,520
Speaker 3: not first off, but like probably about like ten ten

629
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 3: am or so, and it's it's a tough Yeah, that's

630
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,359
Speaker 3: a long ass day. You might might be worth going

631
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 3: out late, you know, having a cap of beers, so

632
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 3: you got to shake the cop webs off for a

633
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,800
Speaker 3: few hours on Thursday morning, you know, yeah, for longs

634
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 3: the day, I don't know, might be worth it. Nicholas

635
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,959
Speaker 3: Poppleton what a I guess he cleans up money games

636
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 3: around Yorkshire area. We got people sending us intel on

637
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 3: Nicholas Poppleton.

638
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 2: So another group I liked, Phil Hatton and Kissener. What

639
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 2: an eclectic mix of human beings?

640
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 3: That is a that's an interesting one. What do they ya?

641
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,799
Speaker 2: Do we have that I didn't put down afternoon?

642
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 3: Whatever that is.

643
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,359
Speaker 2: Would put in what I've going to reverse order? This

644
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 2: is reverse. I went down the t sheet and now

645
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 2: I'm going back to top. Okay, all right, Morikawa, Corey

646
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 2: Connors and Bassie Munos. My question is do you think

647
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 2: Morikawa and Connors are nervous? Why playing with a former

648
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 2: number one?

649
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,279
Speaker 3: I don't know. I was gonna say, do you think

650
00:35:55,400 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 3: Munyas and Connors are nervous? You know what? First first

651
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 3: week for Presidents Cup twenty twenty two counting points events,

652
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 3: Moonos Connors, that's the game within the game. A lot

653
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:13,239
Speaker 3: of weight on their shoulders at the Presidents Cup points opening.

654
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 2: Real real talk though, I think this is Mark How's

655
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 2: first open.

656
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's gotta be right, it is.

657
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 2: I it's it's kind of wild, like to think like

658
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:30,680
Speaker 2: he's the number four player in the world. He hasn't

659
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 2: play almost he hasn't played in and open, you know,

660
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 2: because of just the way because of last year's canceling cancelation.

661
00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:41,879
Speaker 2: It's I mean, the guy I don't think there's ever

662
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:45,879
Speaker 2: probably been somebody before this's played three had three top

663
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,919
Speaker 2: to a win and two other top tens that's never

664
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,800
Speaker 2: played open, like since like way back when when people

665
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 2: didn't go to open.

666
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, number five on side, the top five in the world. Yeah,

667
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 3: it's a good point that Wolf probably.

668
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 2: That's a good question for for justin ray tweet. That's interesting.

669
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 3: It was like probably around the last time they had one.

670
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,359
Speaker 3: It was basically Wolf and Marikawa battling at TPC sod

671
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 3: Farm was basically about you know, that was a week

672
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,319
Speaker 3: either before or after I can't remember, you know, when

673
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 3: they really burst on the scene there after turning pro

674
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 3: at least, So that's a good point. I don't know,

675
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,800
Speaker 3: Connors and Munyas are kind of an odd, odd parent

676
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 3: for a top five player in the world, but whatever,

677
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 3: we'll take it. You think, how do you think Markawa

678
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 3: does with the quirks and the humps and hollows.

679
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 2: The thing that I always worry about with Morikawa is

680
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:45,720
Speaker 2: like the single shot shape with the irons with the wind.

681
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:49,239
Speaker 2: That's the only thing. Like he just hits that that

682
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:53,320
Speaker 2: cut all day, and I think that's the one thing

683
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:57,280
Speaker 2: that I worry about. But he handled it decently at Kiwa,

684
00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 2: Like he was not in the in the mix, but

685
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 2: he wasn't out of the mix, right. I think that's

686
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 2: the thing that I would worry the most about with

687
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 2: more Kawa.

688
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.

689
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 2: But otherwise, I mean I saw, I saw, you know,

690
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 2: Joe Lemanya finding the edge. Data boy, good data boy.

691
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 2: He talks about like just kind of more Kawa and

692
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 2: how the more demanding the golf course, the more he's

693
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 2: just gonna he's gonna thrive, which makes total sense because

694
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 2: of you know, just his skill set. Right. So I think,

695
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 2: like if if the golf course gets firm, fast and

696
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,439
Speaker 2: it's there's wind, that's good for him because he hits

697
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:49,560
Speaker 2: the ball so well. Right, it's the putters obviously always

698
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:51,319
Speaker 2: going to be the liability there.

699
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 3: Yep, What other tea times do you like this week?

700
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 2: Let me get back to my list here. How about uh,

701
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 2: how about the two Texan Yucks and Lynn pairing got

702
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:13,439
Speaker 2: Scott Scheffler Sergio Garcia and Yucks and Lynn got two

703
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 2: Texans with with this amateur from China super talented.

704
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 3: Yes, he's won the Asia Pacific Amateur before. Okay, what

705
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:28,880
Speaker 3: else you got?

706
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 2: What else we got? We got DJ, Xela Taurus and Rose.

707
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:35,720
Speaker 2: I don't know what they're going to talk about.

708
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:40,960
Speaker 3: What do you mean? What are they just? They're all

709
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 3: sort of they're just so different.

710
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:49,239
Speaker 2: I mean like DJ and Rose are like, you know,

711
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:53,799
Speaker 2: fifteen and twenty years older than Zeal Torris almost you know,

712
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 2: fifteen sixteen, seventeen years older.

713
00:39:58,880 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 3: DJ.

714
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 2: DJ Rose just seemed like complete polar opposite.

715
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 3: I guess yeah, probably, But they've been around each other

716
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 3: now for a decade or so at various.

717
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 2: Events I talk about activations. Do you think Rose is

718
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 2: like gonna be like DJ? I loved your acting in

719
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 2: the latest neck Chest commercial is so good and that

720
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 2: DJ might be like, you know, I love those Morgan

721
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 2: Stanley commercials.

722
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 3: Rose still despondent, probably about England losing the euro Yeah,

723
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,840
Speaker 3: hasn't been this down since he's broke up with Ama

724
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 3: at bay Hill? All right? What else? What are some other.

725
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:45,280
Speaker 2: Times twenty the late two thousand and early twenty tens

726
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:48,920
Speaker 2: pairing of Stu Sink, Westy and Martin Kimer.

727
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 3: I was wondering if this made the cut. Not a

728
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 3: great spot for Westy in my opinion, But I kind

729
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:55,200
Speaker 3: of think they.

730
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 2: Did him dirty.

731
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,719
Speaker 3: I feel like we would have said that four out

732
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:06,439
Speaker 3: of five times protective of Westy. Uh Sink I see

733
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 3: is like a sort of a Trendy's probably too strong

734
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 3: a word for it. But you know, people seem to

735
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 3: like him this week because of the you know that

736
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:19,320
Speaker 3: that sort of cliche that the older player not cliche,

737
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 3: It is true.

738
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 2: I thought it was because his son time is back and.

739
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:28,400
Speaker 3: He's played well obviously this year. Kimer. You know, Kimer's

740
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,600
Speaker 3: a roller coaster ride. You know, he could be off

741
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 3: in the heather looking for his ball like that could

742
00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 3: impact Westy. We don't know where that's going. Why do

743
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 3: you think they did him dirty? Though? What's your angle

744
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:38,919
Speaker 3: on that. What's your reasoning for that?

745
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,880
Speaker 2: I just feel like they should have put Westy in

746
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:44,760
Speaker 2: with some big guns.

747
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 3: Oh god, okay, I feel.

748
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:53,400
Speaker 2: Like Westy deserved one of the big premier spots. Okay,

749
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 2: So arguably England's best hope.

750
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:01,920
Speaker 3: For a winter arguably. Yeah, yep. Poulter's making some noise,

751
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 3: made some noise at Scottish played well, he could be

752
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 3: in there too, all right? What else? Rom number one player?

753
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 3: Not number one, I should say, probably the favorite. He's

754
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 3: with Usti and and Lowry Champ. Yeah, Champ, that's a great.

755
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,000
Speaker 2: Two thick boys.

756
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 3: And Louis. What'd you make of Rohm today? Swain is

757
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,399
Speaker 3: so tight. He was born with club foot and had

758
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,719
Speaker 3: to have it recast every so often, and that's why

759
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 3: his right foot, like he just doesn't have the stability people.

760
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 3: He seemed to take great offense to people suggesting his

761
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 3: hips didn't have any fluidity, Like his hips don't lie,

762
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 3: you know. He's like, that's not it my foot. I

763
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,360
Speaker 3: can't put do the stability have a long Swain on

764
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 3: my right foot. He was. He was pissed the people

765
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 3: sort of placed the lack of mobility in his hips

766
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 3: on it.

767
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:52,560
Speaker 2: So I love it. I think like that was a

768
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:59,200
Speaker 2: great opportunity, a great example of press conferences having to

769
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:04,319
Speaker 2: value like we learned something nobody knew that, right, right,

770
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 2: Speth Dishambo and Brendan Grace kind of an odds third

771
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:14,439
Speaker 2: ball in there, though they did shoot the lowest round

772
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:16,240
Speaker 2: in open championship.

773
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 3: History, major championship history. Right, you only see him two,

774
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 3: I think at Birkdale. I uh, I feel bad for

775
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:28,440
Speaker 3: speed being right. We'll get the thick boy here in

776
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:29,919
Speaker 3: a minute when we talk pressed Cad.

777
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 2: You want to talk about Caddy?

778
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:33,640
Speaker 3: What jumping in the pool?

779
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:36,799
Speaker 2: I can't believe we didn't talk about that.

780
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 3: I know we forgot it. And the press release in

781
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 3: golf dot Com.

782
00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:46,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, golf dot com just carrying the media, independent media outlet,

783
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 2: carrying water for for Bryson.

784
00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:53,520
Speaker 3: I mean, look, they did a deal and made him

785
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,799
Speaker 3: of like Plaine editor, and there is a history of

786
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,200
Speaker 3: that magazines like you know, I will pull themer helps

787
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 3: with Sons. That doesn't mean you need to launder his

788
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 3: story about like his Caddy breakup. You know, it's a

789
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 3: little different than just trying to like become a a

790
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 3: megaphone for his messaging. We don't need to talk about

791
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 3: his caddy. We can talk about it in a minute's

792
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:15,880
Speaker 3: I don't know some accolyte that we'll see. We we

793
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 3: we brought him up. I think we broke that news.

794
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 3: I might have the first name Ron, I might have

795
00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:23,240
Speaker 3: called him Brad instead of Brian. But Tomato, Tomato Ziegler

796
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:32,799
Speaker 3: is the caddy. He's a como. I don't know como. Hey,

797
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,840
Speaker 3: I am really fired up to watch Speed this week.

798
00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 2: I think he's kind of a sneaky, good spot pick.

799
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 3: I think he's a great pick. He's always done well

800
00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 3: at the Open. He's this is where we really get

801
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,360
Speaker 3: to see the full It's canvas right.

802
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:52,759
Speaker 2: And weird, weird directions.

803
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 3: Yes, total creativity uneven lies uneven, you know, just around

804
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 3: the green where through? How do you put it? Do

805
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:02,759
Speaker 3: you put it up in the air? Do you bump

806
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 3: it into the into the hill?

807
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:04,319
Speaker 1: What?

808
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 3: Like? I think this just has always been so delightful

809
00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 3: to watch. He's played well. He's obviously contended at Saint Andrews,

810
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:14,319
Speaker 3: he wanted at Birkdale. At Carnoustie, he somehow was in

811
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:17,880
Speaker 3: the final group with duct tape wrapped around two legs

812
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:21,240
Speaker 3: and arms and not quite the flexial era, but definitely

813
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:23,680
Speaker 3: duct tape era, and he didn't win, but he was

814
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:26,160
Speaker 3: in the final group. So I think this is I

815
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:29,359
Speaker 3: am jazz to watch him based on what we talked

816
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 3: about with Saint George's earlier. Now he could get a

817
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,359
Speaker 3: couple bounces and just go on tilt bad bounces. He's

818
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:39,240
Speaker 3: not I wouldn't say he's performed well at the Major

819
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:42,319
Speaker 3: since I guess he was competitive at the Masters, but

820
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 3: since the run early in the year.

821
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:48,479
Speaker 2: I think that's an important important thing to note too,

822
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:53,319
Speaker 2: Like the Open, the Masters obviously sets up really well

823
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,920
Speaker 2: for him. The Open Us too, and those are probably

824
00:45:55,920 --> 00:46:01,400
Speaker 2: the two tournaments where like driving like is the least

825
00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:04,640
Speaker 2: important in terms of like it's important. You still have

826
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 2: to drive the ball well right, but distance is totally

827
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:15,280
Speaker 2: not a prerequisite. At Open Championships, we see all different

828
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:18,880
Speaker 2: types of players win, all different types of players contend.

829
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 2: I mean, it's why Tom Watson could contend at age sixty.

830
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 2: You don't have to hit the ball three hundred and

831
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 2: fifty yards. It obviously is a huge benefit if you

832
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 2: can hit three hundred and fifty yards and straight like

833
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 2: it is anywhere, but this is where it's the least emphasized.

834
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:40,360
Speaker 2: And I think, you know, that's something I thought a

835
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 2: lot about, uh recently, is just if we played if

836
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:49,040
Speaker 2: there was a link stretch of the season that was

837
00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:52,919
Speaker 2: say eight to ten weeks, how much different the top

838
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:54,120
Speaker 2: ten of the world would look.

839
00:46:57,800 --> 00:46:59,520
Speaker 3: That's a good point.

840
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:03,040
Speaker 2: Because like these these golf courses, and for the most part,

841
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:06,600
Speaker 2: you know in America, like we play really similar golf

842
00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,480
Speaker 2: courses week in, week out, and and and this was

843
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,520
Speaker 2: this is just kind of like links going and playing

844
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,120
Speaker 2: links is kind of like when tennis goes and plays

845
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:19,320
Speaker 2: on clay or grass, Like they're like there's different surfaces,

846
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 2: and different players excel at different surfaces. We see it

847
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:25,640
Speaker 2: in small part on the tour, like we see certain

848
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 2: types of players play really well on the West Coast,

849
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 2: like and puttwell on Poana, and then you go to

850
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 2: Bermuda and all of a sudden, Kevin Kistner's popping up

851
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 2: and different players who really put well on Bermuda. Then

852
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:39,120
Speaker 2: we get to Bent and there's you know, everybody knows

853
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,279
Speaker 2: how to play Bent. That's about the most you know

854
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:44,560
Speaker 2: in the summer. But with Links, it's truly like a

855
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 2: it's it's not a small, little thing. It's it's across

856
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 2: the board, it's an entire game. It really is a

857
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:54,399
Speaker 2: different type of golf. Like you it's a you'll hear

858
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 2: artistic thrown around a lot, but I think it's just

859
00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:02,720
Speaker 2: a game where you need have much more control over

860
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,880
Speaker 2: every asset of the aspect of a shot, right. You

861
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:10,919
Speaker 2: need to have trajectory distant and spin all figured out.

862
00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,920
Speaker 2: You can get away when it's not breezy and firm

863
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 2: with with having just distance right, you know. So I

864
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 2: think that's the thing I think about with Speed is

865
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 2: like he's got he's a shot maker, Like he's granted,

866
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:28,959
Speaker 2: he hits some loose ones, but like Seve hit loose ones.

867
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,360
Speaker 2: And I don't want to make the sev speak comparison,

868
00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,719
Speaker 2: but like Seve hit a lot of loose drives. He

869
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:36,399
Speaker 2: was a great links player though, you know, I think

870
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 2: the other thing is that the irregularity of the lies

871
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:44,080
Speaker 2: and the rough like help somebody that really understands golf

872
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:46,799
Speaker 2: and shots in shot making.

873
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:54,680
Speaker 3: Any other groups. Yeah, sorry, no, you're good. I like that.

874
00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:56,600
Speaker 3: I mean I would say the World rankings though they

875
00:48:56,680 --> 00:49:00,799
Speaker 3: built in yeah, not for style play, but they do

876
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 3: allow for players from different parts of the world to

877
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 3: jump in.

878
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:06,240
Speaker 2: But yeah, I just think I think, like I'm saying,

879
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:08,520
Speaker 2: like if if there was a ten week stretch where

880
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 2: they played Links golf, if if it was you know,

881
00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 2: this is like I don't know if we'll ever get

882
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:19,399
Speaker 2: to this, this stretch like where sponsors and I don't

883
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:21,520
Speaker 2: think we ever will with the PGA Tour, you know,

884
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:26,279
Speaker 2: where sponsors were you know, interested, like understood, like hey,

885
00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:30,879
Speaker 2: the global aspect of the game and the the you know,

886
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 2: the money's all digital because like so much of the

887
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:38,799
Speaker 2: PGA Tour sponsorships on site activation, right, But like if

888
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,680
Speaker 2: we had a ten week Link season where they played

889
00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:46,200
Speaker 2: a lot of the best Links courses around you know, Ireland, UK,

890
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:51,200
Speaker 2: it would be really interesting to see how how much

891
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:54,959
Speaker 2: different that looked from from you know, the PGA Tour

892
00:49:55,680 --> 00:50:00,440
Speaker 2: stretch of January through March, right, I don't know.

893
00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, why couldn't you do that with like just capture

894
00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 3: the audience in the morning in the United States like

895
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:07,360
Speaker 3: they did. We were talking about the F one races

896
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:07,800
Speaker 3: and stuff.

897
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:11,080
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's it's be awesome in the summer.

898
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,600
Speaker 2: It'd be awesome in the summer because that's when people

899
00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 2: have stuff to do. You know, here's a here's another group, Kopka,

900
00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:21,799
Speaker 2: co Crack and he Go.

901
00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:24,359
Speaker 3: Garrett kicks going on there?

902
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:27,880
Speaker 2: What I here's my thing? Do you think the open

903
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:31,839
Speaker 2: one to give Brooks the chip that they just can

904
00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 2: see the chip on his shoulder?

905
00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:37,839
Speaker 3: What do you mean, Concede? What what are you talking

906
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 3: about me?

907
00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:42,320
Speaker 2: This guy's got four fucking major championships and he's playing

908
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:43,840
Speaker 2: with Coke Crack and Higo.

909
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:48,200
Speaker 3: Those guys have won a lot, They've won a lot

910
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:50,320
Speaker 3: more around the world this year than Brooksy.

911
00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:53,799
Speaker 2: It's just it's a slap in the face, like you

912
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:59,399
Speaker 2: got spithat Dishambo Lowry Ram Louis, like DJ's at least

913
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:02,600
Speaker 2: this guy's to ours and Rose and Keopka's playing with

914
00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:06,000
Speaker 2: coke Crack and Higgo. This is almost worse than Jimmy

915
00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:08,640
Speaker 2: Walker getting thrown in the back of the bus with

916
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:13,640
Speaker 2: a bush of noboddies. This guy is arguably the best

917
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:17,279
Speaker 2: major championship player that we have right now, and you

918
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:22,560
Speaker 2: put them with Jason coke Crack and Garrett Higgo. What

919
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 2: are two schmucks comparatively comparatively speaking, complete schmucks comparative Brooks Kepka.

920
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:36,040
Speaker 3: It is an odd sort of step down in terms

921
00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:37,360
Speaker 3: of stature. I saw.

922
00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:41,800
Speaker 2: I think they're just conceding, here's your chip, here's the

923
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:45,560
Speaker 2: chip on your shoulder, get onto the leaderboard. We want

924
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 2: you on the leaderboard. So they just gave him the chip.

925
00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:52,799
Speaker 3: He did have some quote today that was very sure

926
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:54,880
Speaker 3: of himself, like I will be there. I'll be around

927
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,200
Speaker 3: the end of Sunday, like I we'll have a late time,

928
00:51:58,440 --> 00:51:59,240
Speaker 3: Like I'll be there.

929
00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,040
Speaker 2: So he's a manifest you know.

930
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:08,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're out early too relatively, Yes, that's what I'm saying.

931
00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:13,720
Speaker 2: They're like before all the all the other big players.

932
00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,720
Speaker 2: They're like they are totally buried on the T sheet.

933
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:22,440
Speaker 3: They really are. I'm looking, Holy cow, it's the Shambo

934
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:24,000
Speaker 3: is like an hour and a half after them, and

935
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:26,839
Speaker 3: between that, Ye wasn't.

936
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:29,800
Speaker 2: This is blatant disrespect to Brooks Koepka.

937
00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:36,600
Speaker 3: They're out early eight oh three, So that's interesting. Interesting

938
00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:40,720
Speaker 3: anything else on the T sheet that perked you're.

939
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:43,719
Speaker 2: I mean the bumblebee, the bumblebee, the bullet and the

940
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:47,200
Speaker 2: bland man. Just it's no good right off the top.

941
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,879
Speaker 3: Do you got anything the killer be.

942
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 2: No, they are the killer bees.

943
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:58,399
Speaker 3: You call the bumblebee, bland and the bullet other than

944
00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:02,320
Speaker 3: you know, used golf fast getting worked up and Jimmy

945
00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 3: Walker just getting stashed so far away. I am kind

946
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:09,320
Speaker 3: of intrigued by Mattias Schwab, Brendan Todd and Carlos Artized.

947
00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:11,360
Speaker 3: I may be the only one, but I do like

948
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:15,319
Speaker 3: that Trio Todd. Who knows, maybe this is the one

949
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:20,120
Speaker 3: Todd Todd gets involved little like uh little Ben Curtis Reprisal,

950
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:22,680
Speaker 3: the American that everybody nobody expects.

951
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:25,680
Speaker 2: Who who like at the point?

952
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:32,040
Speaker 3: Can I give you my worst time? Matt Jones, Daniel Hillier,

953
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:39,840
Speaker 3: Hillier some Australian and Marcel Seem Jones and Seem I

954
00:53:39,920 --> 00:53:43,080
Speaker 3: think you know the patrons of fans might not be

955
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:46,080
Speaker 3: flocking out to that one. That's the game forty three

956
00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 3: as it's announced on the first two.

957
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:55,800
Speaker 2: What about what about this one? Uh? We got Alex

958
00:53:55,880 --> 00:54:03,839
Speaker 2: Norrin J. C Ritchie and Richard Manson. Oh we haven't

959
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:07,320
Speaker 2: even talked about the coffee pot the third legs open?

960
00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:08,440
Speaker 1: Oh?

961
00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:11,160
Speaker 3: Who should? Who should mention that third leg? We got

962
00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:14,000
Speaker 3: some more questions for the coffee pot. Is the Open

963
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:16,640
Speaker 3: Championship there'll be if you miss the Irish Open, the

964
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:20,880
Speaker 3: Scottish Open, there is individual prizes just for the Open Open,

965
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:24,360
Speaker 3: the British Open as it's otherwise known. And uh, that

966
00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:26,799
Speaker 3: is posted. We had the link. Probably will tweet it.

967
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,160
Speaker 3: We've already tweeted it, We've instagrammed it. It'll be in

968
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:32,960
Speaker 3: the newsletter. Yeah, fill it up. There's a bunch of

969
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:34,680
Speaker 3: different fun categories and questions.

970
00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:39,240
Speaker 2: The former Masters winner is still up this time. Rory

971
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 2: is up against Sean Norris, the winner of the Nashaw Masters.

972
00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 3: Winter was too much for him to handle. He had

973
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:49,280
Speaker 3: to drop down a weight class. It's taken on Sean

974
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 3: Norris now former masters.

975
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:57,480
Speaker 2: Would obviously and if those have missed it, Rory's Masters

976
00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:01,360
Speaker 2: win came at the Lake Malarin Shanghai Masters.

977
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:07,280
Speaker 3: Yes, at some point in his earliest career. Other marquee

978
00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:11,000
Speaker 3: groups yeah, rick go for Ricky got a marquee billing

979
00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:16,040
Speaker 3: with Bobby Mack the Scottish Son and x Man and

980
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,640
Speaker 3: then one one after them is J. T. Fleetwood and

981
00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:22,319
Speaker 3: Adam Scott, which is delightful to probably watch. That would

982
00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:25,759
Speaker 3: be some good golf golfing of the ball around the lynks.

983
00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 2: What what's Adam Scott steal these days? Does he even

984
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,600
Speaker 2: care about pro golf? For golf in general anymore.

985
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:35,160
Speaker 3: What does that mean?

986
00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:38,799
Speaker 2: I just feel like he's just moved. I think like

987
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:42,040
Speaker 2: he's just moved on to a new, new, new phase

988
00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:43,120
Speaker 2: of his lunchers.

989
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:45,600
Speaker 3: Did you see he savage the Olympics.

990
00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:48,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm saying that that coupled in there.

991
00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:52,600
Speaker 3: John Huggin. He's just it's like they shouldn't be having

992
00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:56,239
Speaker 3: this just just out of nowhere, non sequitur, just came in,

993
00:55:56,360 --> 00:56:00,400
Speaker 3: like he's already not going just crushes the Olympics.

994
00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:04,680
Speaker 2: This well, this will be his thirteenth of end of

995
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:11,200
Speaker 2: the year. I just I can't imagine him, Like, even

996
00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:13,160
Speaker 2: if he's in the playoffs, I could see him skipping

997
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:19,120
Speaker 2: a week at the playoffs, sure, Like I just think

998
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:21,600
Speaker 2: he's he might get I mean, I guess he only

999
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 2: plays like twenty times a year anyways.

1000
00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:27,680
Speaker 3: But it is kind of amazing how they cluster all

1001
00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:30,040
Speaker 3: the big names together and then there's Brooksy just out

1002
00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:30,600
Speaker 3: there early.

1003
00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:33,080
Speaker 2: IM looking at him, all stack out there and out

1004
00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:38,479
Speaker 2: there in his own ocean. I can see him nothing

1005
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,320
Speaker 2: if what if he gets like a rough draw or something,

1006
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 2: it's like crazy windy on Thursday morning, it dies for

1007
00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:48,160
Speaker 2: the leaders. He shoots like seventy three and then he

1008
00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,840
Speaker 2: loses by like one. But if his draw was like

1009
00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:52,680
Speaker 2: five shots harder, that would.

1010
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:56,160
Speaker 3: Be just yeah, that'd be bogus.

1011
00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:00,480
Speaker 2: Now if he's just afpropos of like, if he would

1012
00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:04,680
Speaker 2: talk about it, he'd bring it up into something. Actually

1013
00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:06,919
Speaker 2: he wouldn't. He would just say, oh, this is the draw.

1014
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:08,000
Speaker 2: That's the luck of the draw.

1015
00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:12,080
Speaker 3: Speed nuggets. This is from Justin Ray's article on PGA

1016
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:14,840
Speaker 3: tour dot com. Since twenty fifteen, Speed leads all players

1017
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:18,240
Speaker 3: at the Open and scoring average rounds in the sixties

1018
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:23,720
Speaker 3: and one putts not you know, he's hanging around there.

1019
00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:27,360
Speaker 3: This last six years. J Ray had some great stats,

1020
00:57:27,400 --> 00:57:29,800
Speaker 3: a lot of strikes games, Hey, go ahead.

1021
00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 2: Justin Ray has has confirmed since the OWGR began in

1022
00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:38,200
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty six, it is the first time a player

1023
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:42,800
Speaker 2: was fourth or better in making his Open debut. With

1024
00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:46,960
Speaker 2: regards to Colum Mount Markawa. If they existed back at

1025
00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:49,560
Speaker 2: like way back when Hogan and Palmer would have been

1026
00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:51,840
Speaker 2: a couple of examples who would have been up there.

1027
00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:55,880
Speaker 3: So good stuff. Real time feedback from Justin Wright as

1028
00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:57,720
Speaker 3: we record pretty impressive.

1029
00:57:57,760 --> 00:58:04,000
Speaker 2: Just on the on the it's incredible, all right, that

1030
00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 2: does it.

1031
00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:08,000
Speaker 3: For the t sheet. Should we do any quotable stuff?

1032
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:12,800
Speaker 2: Yeah? Oh you know. Can I plug the pool one

1033
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:15,680
Speaker 2: more time and lead us into probably the first quotable thing.

1034
00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:16,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1035
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,560
Speaker 2: One of our questions is to yell or not to yell?

1036
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:23,439
Speaker 2: Oh God, and it's Bryson versus big shot Bob Back

1037
00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:26,600
Speaker 2: and tire to yell for or not to yell for?

1038
00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:32,400
Speaker 2: Bryce and Dishambo because I love that they asked this question.

1039
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:36,200
Speaker 2: You can rely on the good old, you know, the

1040
00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:39,680
Speaker 2: British press to ask some of the tough questions that

1041
00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:43,720
Speaker 2: the PGA Tour shields off from reporters. You know, if

1042
00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:46,800
Speaker 2: they got all friends and family sitting in the PGA

1043
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:50,120
Speaker 2: Tour press rooms to make sure questions like this don't

1044
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:56,360
Speaker 2: get asked. I forgot who asked it, but so they asked, Bryson,

1045
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,840
Speaker 2: why don't you yell for when you launch balls into.

1046
00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:02,920
Speaker 3: The John Huggin, John Hoggin, I have it here, let

1047
00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:06,320
Speaker 3: me let me pull it up. Said, I'm just kind

1048
00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:08,360
Speaker 3: of curitious. Over the last few months we've watched to

1049
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:11,120
Speaker 3: lunch a few drives and such. You cras and you

1050
00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:13,720
Speaker 3: don't seem to show for I'm just wondering what you're

1051
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,240
Speaker 3: doing I do Show four. I don't know what you're

1052
00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:16,720
Speaker 3: talking about.

1053
00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:18,120
Speaker 1: There's plenty of people in the tea box that do

1054
00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:20,160
Speaker 1: show for so you know, you're bringing up.

1055
00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:22,440
Speaker 2: A very controversial thing, which is unfortunate.

1056
00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:27,160
Speaker 3: But the time I do, and unfortunate people think I don't.

1057
00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:27,800
Speaker 2: But that's okay.

1058
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:31,720
Speaker 3: They can say whatever they want. A very controversial thing

1059
00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:34,080
Speaker 3: that you're bringing up, and that's unfortunate that you're doing that.

1060
00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:35,720
Speaker 3: I think it was John. I don't know it was

1061
00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:38,080
Speaker 3: a John. I assume it was him. Huggin got on

1062
00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:42,360
Speaker 3: the Bobby Mack yelling for last time, but I mean,

1063
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:44,240
Speaker 3: we have video evidence over.

1064
00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:49,200
Speaker 2: Ninety nine percent of the time he doesn't yell for.

1065
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:52,120
Speaker 3: It's the opposite.

1066
00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:55,680
Speaker 2: It was uh.

1067
00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:59,480
Speaker 3: I mean, Bryson was just not ready what was going on.

1068
00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:03,440
Speaker 3: He's he's so bad, he's so bad at doing the

1069
01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:06,160
Speaker 3: whole thing. I'm not mad. I'm actually not mad. It's

1070
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:08,960
Speaker 3: fine thing at this point. I don't understand how he

1071
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:13,920
Speaker 3: doesn't have more training his team around him. And this

1072
01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:17,920
Speaker 3: is I think even further up it. Despite that chimockery

1073
01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:21,360
Speaker 3: of a golf dot Com thing on the what really

1074
01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:23,440
Speaker 3: happened with the caddy split, which we all know is

1075
01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:26,320
Speaker 3: not accurate and bogus and whatever. It's the message and

1076
01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:29,640
Speaker 3: you want they want to tell. They just seem to

1077
01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:33,240
Speaker 3: mishand like, don't do it with the website where you

1078
01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 3: have already have a paid arrangement, like leak it to

1079
01:00:35,760 --> 01:00:38,360
Speaker 3: a reporter, like you know, like it somewhere that's something

1080
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:42,080
Speaker 3: that's less, that's more subtle. But anyways, they just seem

1081
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:45,280
Speaker 3: to struggle. And maybe this is just a natural Bryce

1082
01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:47,920
Speaker 3: in defect in terms of him being able to he

1083
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:53,000
Speaker 3: finds controversy and he doesn't know how to either escape

1084
01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:56,040
Speaker 3: it well or smoothly, or talk about it or deflect it.

1085
01:00:56,120 --> 01:00:58,840
Speaker 3: I I do shout for I don't know what you're

1086
01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:01,760
Speaker 3: talking about. He seems that was like the second question

1087
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:08,320
Speaker 3: and we were off and running. He finished, he finished.

1088
01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:11,080
Speaker 3: Someone asked him, like, you know, I think a good question,

1089
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:13,200
Speaker 3: like hey, trying to get at him, like does it

1090
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:16,920
Speaker 3: hurt you personally the criticisms you receive, especially from Brooks

1091
01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:19,720
Speaker 3: and others? And he goes, does it hurt what likes

1092
01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:22,600
Speaker 3: if like, I don't know it was hurting his swing

1093
01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:25,360
Speaker 3: or something. He goes, well, I think it makes emotionally

1094
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:27,439
Speaker 3: a little difficult too. I would say resolve that because

1095
01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:29,840
Speaker 3: in my heart of hearts, I really think I'm a

1096
01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:32,720
Speaker 3: great person and a really good person to be around

1097
01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:34,760
Speaker 3: and a kind person to be around. Talking about how

1098
01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:37,480
Speaker 3: he's a great person. It's sometimes difficult, but at the

1099
01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:39,040
Speaker 3: end of the day, you can just keep doing what

1100
01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:41,160
Speaker 3: you're doing. And I think that's why for me, I've

1101
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:43,680
Speaker 3: always done a lot on social media, done a lot

1102
01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:46,439
Speaker 3: of YouTube series to showcase myself in a different light

1103
01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:50,360
Speaker 3: because I want people to see that side quote. I

1104
01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:53,440
Speaker 3: think there's a lot of greatness to that and also

1105
01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:58,080
Speaker 3: humbleness to that as well. How about that saying you're humble,

1106
01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:02,280
Speaker 3: saying you're great in the same sentence of nonetheless, what

1107
01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:05,560
Speaker 3: humble about these videos where you're about.

1108
01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:11,680
Speaker 2: Yourself about yourself. If you have to say that you're humble,

1109
01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 2: if you have to say that you're a great guy,

1110
01:02:13,960 --> 01:02:16,440
Speaker 2: if you have to say you're all these things, you're

1111
01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:16,920
Speaker 2: probably not.

1112
01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:25,520
Speaker 3: I mean, it was such a weird thing he struggles.

1113
01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:30,000
Speaker 3: I will say I thought this was the most revelatory

1114
01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:33,320
Speaker 3: answer I've heard from Bryson, And I don't know if

1115
01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:35,400
Speaker 3: he intended it to be that way or not. I

1116
01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:38,360
Speaker 3: think he got it a real part of who he

1117
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 3: is and why he really struggles in these things. When

1118
01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:44,680
Speaker 3: he was asked about being always in controversy, does he

1119
01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:48,560
Speaker 3: thrive in controversy? Where's Brooks? Earlier in the day, Brooks

1120
01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:51,640
Speaker 3: was like, you know, look, we'll be fine at the

1121
01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:53,800
Speaker 3: Ryder Cup. It's business. It's one week. I can get

1122
01:02:53,800 --> 01:02:57,160
Speaker 3: through anything, right. He's like, I think Brooks doesn't mind.

1123
01:02:57,200 --> 01:03:00,520
Speaker 3: He like kind of laughs at the drama and understands

1124
01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:02,480
Speaker 3: the pip impacts and all that and is happy to

1125
01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:06,640
Speaker 3: partake in it. Bryson's sort of not comfortable with it clearly.

1126
01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:09,360
Speaker 3: So he's asked like, do you thrive in that? And

1127
01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:12,400
Speaker 3: he was also asked about pairing at the writer. He goes, yeah,

1128
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:14,760
Speaker 3: I think we sweet be fun, we'd be great, pairing

1129
01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:21,000
Speaker 3: be awesome, which you know that love is unrequited on

1130
01:03:21,200 --> 01:03:23,400
Speaker 3: Brooks's parents. It's like, no, we're not going to be

1131
01:03:23,400 --> 01:03:27,040
Speaker 3: paired together. So Bryson's asked, like, do you thrive in controversy?

1132
01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:30,440
Speaker 3: Quote somebody that thrives in controversy. I don't even think

1133
01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:34,400
Speaker 3: it's about that. Look, I never grew up to become famous.

1134
01:03:34,480 --> 01:03:36,640
Speaker 3: I grew up to play golf, and that's something that

1135
01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:39,240
Speaker 3: people I don't think realize it's difficult to truly understand

1136
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:41,960
Speaker 3: unless you're in this environment, and sometimes you just try

1137
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,640
Speaker 3: and make the best of situations. They don't necessarily look

1138
01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:49,000
Speaker 3: good or come out the right way. That's life. Unfortunately,

1139
01:03:49,040 --> 01:03:51,160
Speaker 3: us professionals, we have to be on top of it

1140
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:53,000
Speaker 3: all the time. It doesn't come out the right way

1141
01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:55,400
Speaker 3: sometimes or happen the way you want it to, and

1142
01:03:55,440 --> 01:03:57,680
Speaker 3: we make mistakes. At the end of the day, you

1143
01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:00,200
Speaker 3: have to move on. For me, I'm somebody that doesn't

1144
01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:02,919
Speaker 3: necessarily like controversy. I just like doing my own thing.

1145
01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:06,160
Speaker 3: Do I like showcasing something unique and different? Yeah, But

1146
01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:07,920
Speaker 3: I guess what comes with it is controversy, and I

1147
01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:10,360
Speaker 3: guess that's something I don't necessarily deal with the best.

1148
01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:13,320
Speaker 3: Sometimes I thought he was pretty candid here. I don't

1149
01:04:13,360 --> 01:04:17,760
Speaker 3: know if he meant to be, but like I think

1150
01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:22,800
Speaker 3: he grew up not expecting, not wanting to be famous.

1151
01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:24,640
Speaker 3: He is now super famous because of the way he

1152
01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:28,200
Speaker 3: does things differently, and obviously doesn't handle it super well

1153
01:04:29,200 --> 01:04:30,960
Speaker 3: in terms of in terms of being able to answer

1154
01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:34,880
Speaker 3: questions about the controversy. He's not good at deflecting the

1155
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:35,400
Speaker 3: I'm not.

1156
01:04:35,440 --> 01:04:36,600
Speaker 2: Mad, it's fine thing.

1157
01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:39,200
Speaker 3: He just doesn't. He's not smooth at it, and that's fine.

1158
01:04:39,240 --> 01:04:40,880
Speaker 3: He didn't expect to be in this position. And he's

1159
01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:43,360
Speaker 3: always in here and where something drama's happening.

1160
01:04:44,080 --> 01:04:45,920
Speaker 2: Here's the other thing. He brings a lot of this

1161
01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:49,200
Speaker 2: on himself. But I don't think that any any other

1162
01:04:49,720 --> 01:04:54,200
Speaker 2: golfer like deals with the amount of shit that he

1163
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:58,800
Speaker 2: deals with, whether it's deserved or whether it's not. It's

1164
01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:03,560
Speaker 2: mostly deserved. He does get avalanche more so than almost

1165
01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:06,600
Speaker 2: any other golfer. So I think, you know, a couple

1166
01:05:06,880 --> 01:05:14,840
Speaker 2: his personality with the avalanche of you know, criticism, interest

1167
01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:18,040
Speaker 2: in what he's doing that he gets. I think it

1168
01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:19,720
Speaker 2: does put him in a tough spot.

1169
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:23,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, he plays the game though. To be clear, I'm

1170
01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:25,400
Speaker 3: gonna live to be one hundred and ninety years old.

1171
01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:28,080
Speaker 3: I'd see UFOs all that. Like he plays it. He

1172
01:05:28,160 --> 01:05:31,520
Speaker 3: knows what's up, so like he knows what's gonna get headlines.

1173
01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:33,560
Speaker 3: So but I just thought that was an interesting Like.

1174
01:05:33,600 --> 01:05:35,480
Speaker 3: I didn't grow up to be famous. I grew up

1175
01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:38,160
Speaker 3: to play golf. I always end up in controversy because

1176
01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:40,160
Speaker 3: I do things differently and I don't handle it well.

1177
01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:41,880
Speaker 3: I don't know if he intended to go that way.

1178
01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:44,080
Speaker 3: But I actually found that to be a revelatory answer

1179
01:05:44,120 --> 01:05:46,960
Speaker 3: amongst all the other sort of amusements about shouting for

1180
01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:50,120
Speaker 3: and being a good person, being humble and great at

1181
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:53,520
Speaker 3: the same time. So anything else. I didn't have a

1182
01:05:53,560 --> 01:05:55,360
Speaker 3: whole lot of other quotes. We touched on him with

1183
01:05:55,360 --> 01:06:00,160
Speaker 3: Brooksy shots to Nothing, John Rahm's club Foot Rory. I

1184
01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:03,520
Speaker 3: thought was I didn't have a lot for Rory.

1185
01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:06,960
Speaker 2: You know, so you want to talk about just you know,

1186
01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:10,600
Speaker 2: let's just say, top ten players. Who do you think

1187
01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:17,640
Speaker 2: do you think this week's the most important for a win? Yeah?

1188
01:06:17,680 --> 01:06:18,120
Speaker 3: All of them.

1189
01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:21,480
Speaker 2: Obviously winning a major is huge. Which one? You know,

1190
01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:24,520
Speaker 2: I think there's a number of guys here in this

1191
01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:26,640
Speaker 2: list that you know, you could make the argument, and

1192
01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:28,880
Speaker 2: there's a lot of like this is the last one

1193
01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 2: a year. That's the other thing I think this is

1194
01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:34,680
Speaker 2: it used to be the PGA, but the PGA was

1195
01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:38,040
Speaker 2: kind of the one thing the schedule does is that,

1196
01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:43,840
Speaker 2: you know, this is arguably the second, maybe second third

1197
01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:48,240
Speaker 2: biggest major of the year, maybe the biggest some people

1198
01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:50,040
Speaker 2: could you could make the argument.

1199
01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:54,000
Speaker 3: On Monday, yeah, Sunday, Yeah.

1200
01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:57,560
Speaker 2: So you know it's the last one now and it

1201
01:06:57,680 --> 01:07:01,880
Speaker 2: adds this finality there's a longer break than ever between majors,

1202
01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:05,480
Speaker 2: with it being July until next April. Is this short

1203
01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:08,720
Speaker 2: condensed period of time gives people a lot of time

1204
01:07:08,760 --> 01:07:12,200
Speaker 2: to think and like, you know, for example, Rory, if

1205
01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:14,960
Speaker 2: we miss this, then we're twenty we're all the way

1206
01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:18,000
Speaker 2: back to twenty fourteen, we're eight years removed from his

1207
01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:21,520
Speaker 2: last major. Brooks, he had this great run, but if

1208
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:24,880
Speaker 2: he doesn't win this year, it's another like a law.

1209
01:07:25,280 --> 01:07:28,800
Speaker 2: It's a big break between when he rattled four off.

1210
01:07:29,920 --> 01:07:33,000
Speaker 3: So my answer, before I even looked at it and

1211
01:07:33,040 --> 01:07:34,600
Speaker 3: I assumed he was in the top ten, I assumed

1212
01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:37,920
Speaker 3: he was in the top five, it was gonna be JT.

1213
01:07:38,520 --> 01:07:41,120
Speaker 3: I just think there's a lot of success there. Then

1214
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:44,760
Speaker 3: there's a lot of like not even major contention, right,

1215
01:07:44,880 --> 01:07:46,240
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess he was kind of around that

1216
01:07:46,280 --> 01:07:52,720
Speaker 3: November Masters, but not really. And that's sort of the

1217
01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:55,920
Speaker 3: highest standard he set for himself. He's won a major,

1218
01:07:56,200 --> 01:07:58,000
Speaker 3: you know, which is a lot of people to take that,

1219
01:07:58,080 --> 01:08:01,880
Speaker 3: Ricky and everybody else. But he wins a lot. He

1220
01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:04,200
Speaker 3: wins you know, Memphis.

1221
01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:07,880
Speaker 2: And his major came at a tour event. Stop.

1222
01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:14,480
Speaker 3: That is true. That is true, he's been really hit

1223
01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:18,400
Speaker 3: or miss this year, mostly miss aside from that Players weekend.

1224
01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:20,400
Speaker 2: It's crazy how bad he's in.

1225
01:08:20,320 --> 01:08:23,920
Speaker 3: The World Players right, right, he's third in the world.

1226
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:28,519
Speaker 3: I think like he feels like there's someone who should

1227
01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:32,120
Speaker 3: have another major most if that makes sense, And so

1228
01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:35,000
Speaker 3: I think if you're asking me top ten, it would

1229
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:38,160
Speaker 3: mean a lot for him, you know, to add something.

1230
01:08:38,040 --> 01:08:42,960
Speaker 2: Here, Yeah, I think. I mean, you've got Xander and

1231
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:47,400
Speaker 2: Can'tle would be first time winners, right, And there's.

1232
01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:50,320
Speaker 3: My pick this week one and done. Yeah, he's my pick.

1233
01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:53,800
Speaker 3: I just think because it's I think it's he's maybe

1234
01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:57,559
Speaker 3: the most safe to be a top ten finish top

1235
01:08:57,640 --> 01:09:00,479
Speaker 3: five barring no CT. Great to see the CT machines

1236
01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:02,840
Speaker 3: coming back, By the way, I don't think we'll hear

1237
01:09:02,920 --> 01:09:06,280
Speaker 3: anything though, like the thing that's lost on everything.

1238
01:09:06,360 --> 01:09:08,679
Speaker 2: The only reason we knew about that was because Xander

1239
01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:11,480
Speaker 2: just came out and said it in a press conference.

1240
01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:13,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think he'd be.

1241
01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:17,040
Speaker 2: O. Can I tell my CT story?

1242
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:17,200
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1243
01:09:17,240 --> 01:09:22,880
Speaker 2: I forgot about this, Oh god please? So I got

1244
01:09:22,960 --> 01:09:26,200
Speaker 2: a little tip there was a this was from an

1245
01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:29,480
Speaker 2: event on the Range.

1246
01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:33,320
Speaker 3: PGA Tour event right, maybe maybe not?

1247
01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:33,920
Speaker 2: Maybe?

1248
01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:35,000
Speaker 3: All right?

1249
01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:39,280
Speaker 2: All right on the range. Player needs a new grip,

1250
01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:46,040
Speaker 2: So the equipment rep takes the club, goes in, comes back,

1251
01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:49,920
Speaker 2: new grip on the club says hey, player, when was

1252
01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:54,160
Speaker 2: the last time you were test tested for the CT

1253
01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:57,960
Speaker 2: He goes, so, like a month ago, He goes, good. Good,

1254
01:09:58,760 --> 01:10:00,360
Speaker 2: you'll be good to go for a while. Ale with

1255
01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:07,360
Speaker 2: this one. It's way over the limit player. Player goes, awesome,

1256
01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:11,479
Speaker 2: puts the head cover back on into the back.

1257
01:10:13,400 --> 01:10:16,800
Speaker 3: Because they never knowingly cheat, right, They never knowingly like

1258
01:10:16,920 --> 01:10:18,800
Speaker 3: it's just it happened on the last hit on the

1259
01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:20,760
Speaker 3: range before they went to the tea it got hot.

1260
01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:26,640
Speaker 3: They never actually knowingly put hot stuff. Awesome, this is

1261
01:10:26,800 --> 01:10:29,479
Speaker 3: way over the limit. Good, you got a few months

1262
01:10:29,479 --> 01:10:36,439
Speaker 3: before you're tested again. Good stuff, good stuff. They just

1263
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:38,639
Speaker 3: you know, they don't know, they don't knowingly do it.

1264
01:10:38,680 --> 01:10:41,519
Speaker 3: All right, there's no reason to test on every tea box.

1265
01:10:41,600 --> 01:10:44,920
Speaker 3: But okay, can't Lay and Xander. You're saying obviously they

1266
01:10:44,920 --> 01:10:46,040
Speaker 3: have the most again.

1267
01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:49,120
Speaker 2: Is no, I'm just saying those are Yeah. I mean,

1268
01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:54,080
Speaker 2: DJ stinks. How's he backup to number one in the world?

1269
01:10:54,760 --> 01:10:59,120
Speaker 3: Rom needed like to finish second or something something ridiculous

1270
01:11:00,400 --> 01:11:02,920
Speaker 3: machination at the Scottish bumps down.

1271
01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:05,960
Speaker 2: So I mean, like all these guys kind of have

1272
01:11:06,120 --> 01:11:09,080
Speaker 2: something on the line to be fair, to be completely honest,

1273
01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:12,280
Speaker 2: just with the way the majors have shaken out, like outside,

1274
01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:14,800
Speaker 2: like I think Rom is Like if Rom wins the

1275
01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:17,080
Speaker 2: second one, that's a huge deal, right, that, like all

1276
01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:19,240
Speaker 2: of a sudden like back to back major wins like

1277
01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:23,680
Speaker 2: launches him into a different stratosphere. Right, And you got

1278
01:11:23,760 --> 01:11:26,800
Speaker 2: DJ who hasn't done anything this year since since the

1279
01:11:26,840 --> 01:11:32,920
Speaker 2: Bone Saw Festival. And then you got more more Kawa

1280
01:11:34,280 --> 01:11:38,919
Speaker 2: winning in your open debut. And then he got Bryson

1281
01:11:39,160 --> 01:11:42,439
Speaker 2: who would shed that he can't play in anything under

1282
01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:44,280
Speaker 2: that ideal flat lie conditions.

1283
01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:46,160
Speaker 3: We can we talk about I know we talked about

1284
01:11:46,160 --> 01:11:48,960
Speaker 3: his quotes like just for a minute. Like for me,

1285
01:11:49,080 --> 01:11:51,680
Speaker 3: that is the absolute most exciting thing to watch this

1286
01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:54,960
Speaker 3: week is at least the first round, I mean Sunday.

1287
01:11:54,960 --> 01:11:58,240
Speaker 3: I don't think it'll be, but I think that's fascinating

1288
01:11:58,240 --> 01:12:02,120
Speaker 3: to see this guy who bobbed gouge overpowered the USGA

1289
01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:05,160
Speaker 3: and their events, who has found that to be quite

1290
01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:08,439
Speaker 3: successful on the PGA tour. We haven't had link Rory

1291
01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:10,200
Speaker 3: just talking about I him played Links golf in two

1292
01:12:10,240 --> 01:12:13,960
Speaker 3: years and he's going to this and he's already didn't

1293
01:12:13,960 --> 01:12:16,559
Speaker 3: do well with the press. I would say, I think

1294
01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:20,360
Speaker 3: it's fascinating he talks about maybe using the Tiger strategy.

1295
01:12:20,400 --> 01:12:22,000
Speaker 3: I don't think he's actually gonna use it. He just

1296
01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:25,640
Speaker 3: was citing it for chits and giggles. But to me,

1297
01:12:26,360 --> 01:12:29,240
Speaker 3: that is the most interesting to watch now, whether it's

1298
01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:32,439
Speaker 3: mainly from a car crash perspective or whatever, to see

1299
01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:36,040
Speaker 3: how well this holds up. And where he just talked

1300
01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:38,719
Speaker 3: about how he went from T one to T twenty

1301
01:12:38,760 --> 01:12:41,000
Speaker 3: six and nine holes of Tory Pine is simply because

1302
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:45,040
Speaker 3: of luck, right, unlucky lives or whatever it was in

1303
01:12:45,080 --> 01:12:48,639
Speaker 3: the fairway where he bombs it off to he's gonna

1304
01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:51,960
Speaker 3: get bounces this week that are unlucky and there's wind,

1305
01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:55,680
Speaker 3: and I just I for me, actually, what part of that,

1306
01:12:55,920 --> 01:13:00,160
Speaker 3: this whole Bryson beefy boy approach showing up at that

1307
01:13:00,280 --> 01:13:03,960
Speaker 3: the Links courses, for me is what I'm most excited

1308
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:06,880
Speaker 3: to watch, at least for the first few hours on Thursday.

1309
01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:10,760
Speaker 3: So all right, right, I mean, are you are you

1310
01:13:10,800 --> 01:13:13,800
Speaker 3: with me on that? I don't think it's gonna go well, you.

1311
01:13:13,760 --> 01:13:16,519
Speaker 2: Know, I don't know. Who knows. We saw remember when

1312
01:13:16,600 --> 01:13:21,560
Speaker 2: Rob tried to over power Carnoustie a couple of years ago. Yeah,

1313
01:13:22,040 --> 01:13:26,840
Speaker 2: just like got just smoked, like like make it you

1314
01:13:26,880 --> 01:13:29,360
Speaker 2: know that. I think that's that's the thing. Is like

1315
01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:33,040
Speaker 2: the Open, the the RNA doesn't do anything like they

1316
01:13:33,080 --> 01:13:35,800
Speaker 2: just set the golf course up right, and they set

1317
01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:38,120
Speaker 2: it up the way. But the irregularity of it, I

1318
01:13:38,160 --> 01:13:40,559
Speaker 2: think is the thing that that hurts. It's not like

1319
01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:43,920
Speaker 2: predictable math, like the way that the US Open is,

1320
01:13:43,960 --> 01:13:47,280
Speaker 2: where everything's the same. There's such a uniformity that is

1321
01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:51,799
Speaker 2: so predictable that it becomes like the irregularity makes it

1322
01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:54,559
Speaker 2: a little bit more difficult to just play, to play

1323
01:13:54,600 --> 01:13:57,520
Speaker 2: one strategy and then a couple in the bad bounces,

1324
01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:00,720
Speaker 2: that's the thing. It could be he gets one of

1325
01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:02,559
Speaker 2: those bad bounces, you know.

1326
01:14:03,360 --> 01:14:09,920
Speaker 3: Him, he might throw Hogan cap off into the sea

1327
01:14:10,080 --> 01:14:13,200
Speaker 3: the channel. Who knows where That's gonna be delightful viewing,

1328
01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:16,320
Speaker 3: I mean trancing viewing. I won't say delightful.

1329
01:14:16,479 --> 01:14:20,360
Speaker 2: So all right, and so Brooks, Brooks, if Brooks, if Brooks,

1330
01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:22,800
Speaker 2: if he hasn't, if he doesn't win, he goes from

1331
01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:26,080
Speaker 2: going four for nine, he win four of the four

1332
01:14:26,120 --> 01:14:29,280
Speaker 2: of nine Majors. Obviously, he didn't play in the Masters

1333
01:14:29,320 --> 01:14:32,240
Speaker 2: because of the wrist. I think back then he would

1334
01:14:32,280 --> 01:14:35,880
Speaker 2: go from four of nine to er for the last nine.

1335
01:14:36,160 --> 01:14:38,599
Speaker 2: Now he didn't play in one. Also because the US Open,

1336
01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:44,040
Speaker 2: which is just kind of yeah, you know then read.

1337
01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:50,400
Speaker 2: I mean, that's just a There's a million things about Reid,

1338
01:14:50,760 --> 01:14:52,960
Speaker 2: but he's knocked on the door. He's been close a

1339
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:55,280
Speaker 2: lot of times. I think people's disdained for Reid, like

1340
01:14:55,400 --> 01:14:58,760
Speaker 2: dismiss how how close he's been to having a second,

1341
01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:03,360
Speaker 2: you know, major championship, and then hatton He's never contended

1342
01:15:03,400 --> 01:15:03,879
Speaker 2: in anything.

1343
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:09,200
Speaker 3: So what about Rory said he found something well outside,

1344
01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:13,360
Speaker 3: He's eleven, said he found something on the range Sunday,

1345
01:15:13,520 --> 01:15:15,960
Speaker 3: so he was coy about it. But it sounds like

1346
01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:18,280
Speaker 3: he feels really good about the way he's hitting the ball.

1347
01:15:18,400 --> 01:15:22,200
Speaker 3: But you know, we've heard that from many players before.

1348
01:15:24,560 --> 01:15:28,800
Speaker 2: I would say that the most pressure I'll put I

1349
01:15:29,200 --> 01:15:33,440
Speaker 2: was gonna say JT, but instead I'll say, uh, I'll

1350
01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:37,719
Speaker 2: say dj playing in Sandwich. He loves sandwiches. I wonder

1351
01:15:37,720 --> 01:15:39,599
Speaker 2: if there's a good spot for him there.

1352
01:15:41,640 --> 01:15:43,479
Speaker 3: Good who's your pick to win?

1353
01:15:44,479 --> 01:15:47,440
Speaker 2: I'm taking Rob I still.

1354
01:15:47,160 --> 01:15:49,240
Speaker 3: Have him going out on a limb.

1355
01:15:50,320 --> 01:15:56,599
Speaker 2: I have him. He's I've been cursed. I'm in dead last,

1356
01:15:56,680 --> 01:16:02,000
Speaker 2: I think, or something close to dead last. Unbelievable. Do

1357
01:16:02,040 --> 01:16:04,920
Speaker 2: you have a dark horse, any any long shots that

1358
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:05,920
Speaker 2: you like?

1359
01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:09,160
Speaker 3: Oh God, that's such a relative. Everybody just throws that

1360
01:16:09,280 --> 01:16:12,360
Speaker 3: out there. Who's my sleeper pick? Xander is not getting

1361
01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:18,679
Speaker 3: any I'm picking Xander to win. I don't know Poulter.

1362
01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:23,519
Speaker 3: Would he count? Does he count? I think he's.

1363
01:16:26,640 --> 01:16:27,639
Speaker 2: What about air Bear?

1364
01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:31,439
Speaker 3: I ain't another great pick one of a links course

1365
01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:32,840
Speaker 3: in Ireland just two weeks ago.

1366
01:16:34,479 --> 01:16:45,519
Speaker 2: I feel like Mullinari's kind of slept on too, which one, Frank, I.

1367
01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:49,519
Speaker 3: Mean Dodos slept on too as well. But okay, one

1368
01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:53,599
Speaker 3: fifteen he's off with Leishman and Wallace. He's played well.

1369
01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:55,320
Speaker 2: There's gonna be a lot of a lot of batting,

1370
01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:59,479
Speaker 2: a lot of batting around out there with those three.

1371
01:17:00,240 --> 01:17:02,120
Speaker 3: Just getting the ball in the ground, try to find

1372
01:17:02,160 --> 01:17:08,120
Speaker 3: the hole up and pull the field, not trying to

1373
01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:10,000
Speaker 3: take it too far. They're not trying to hit it

1374
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:11,880
Speaker 3: out of the park. You're just trying to get it

1375
01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:12,479
Speaker 3: through the hole.

1376
01:17:13,280 --> 01:17:15,679
Speaker 2: Take what the course gives you. I think they might.

1377
01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:18,680
Speaker 2: They might play the way Layman suggested. Play for the

1378
01:17:18,720 --> 01:17:22,360
Speaker 2: flat areas. Don't try and push anything. Play for the

1379
01:17:22,400 --> 01:17:24,759
Speaker 2: flat areas, roll the ball into the holes.

1380
01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:29,080
Speaker 3: They even put down a punt every now and then. Okay,

1381
01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:32,320
Speaker 3: Molinari is a good one. He's played pretty well since

1382
01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:35,439
Speaker 3: what about pebble Beach? I would say, what would.

1383
01:17:35,479 --> 01:17:37,880
Speaker 2: What would you have said if at the beginning of

1384
01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:43,240
Speaker 2: the year I told you that in July Dick Bland

1385
01:17:43,520 --> 01:17:47,200
Speaker 2: would be higher ranked in the world than Ricky Fowler.

1386
01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:53,240
Speaker 3: I would have enjoyed that. I would have had questions

1387
01:17:53,240 --> 01:17:55,799
Speaker 3: about how it happened, but I would be greatly amused

1388
01:17:55,840 --> 01:17:59,880
Speaker 3: by the whole deal. Ricky, I don't know. I think

1389
01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:02,719
Speaker 3: Ricky could have a chance to finish top ten this week.

1390
01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:06,360
Speaker 2: This guy's in a featured group. Here's who's around, who's

1391
01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:09,519
Speaker 2: ahead of him in the world rankings. Charles Schwarzel. It's

1392
01:18:09,560 --> 01:18:12,720
Speaker 2: not even here, He's not even He didn't even make

1393
01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:15,600
Speaker 2: the field. He's playing at the barbers.

1394
01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:18,639
Speaker 3: Rot, from winning the from being top five at the yeah.

1395
01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:24,439
Speaker 2: You got or no? He played well at top ten

1396
01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:31,120
Speaker 2: at Port Rush. Okay, okay, Dick Bland is ninety eight.

1397
01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:34,400
Speaker 2: Ricky is one hundred, Dick Bland's ninety eight, Sam Horsefeld

1398
01:18:34,960 --> 01:18:42,799
Speaker 2: ninety seven, Eric Van Royan, Dean Burmester, Chan Kim, John Catlin,

1399
01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:48,960
Speaker 2: Adam Long, Brendan Steele to Koobi Kanayah, who's based like

1400
01:18:49,520 --> 01:18:57,440
Speaker 2: ten stars? Yeah, Troy Merritt is ahead of him, Antoine Rossner,

1401
01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:02,160
Speaker 2: Danny van Totter. I mean, this is insane.

1402
01:19:04,080 --> 01:19:06,240
Speaker 3: He's in a future group. He could I think he.

1403
01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:09,880
Speaker 3: I think he's He played so well here in twenty eleven.

1404
01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:12,519
Speaker 3: Now that doesn't necessarily mean anything for this week. I

1405
01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:14,479
Speaker 3: think he's trimed to have a top.

1406
01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:18,240
Speaker 2: Ten Brenton twenty eleven was ten years ago. You didn't

1407
01:19:18,280 --> 01:19:20,400
Speaker 2: have you didn't have, as you said at the top

1408
01:19:20,439 --> 01:19:23,360
Speaker 2: of the show, you didn't have any kids. Ricky was

1409
01:19:23,400 --> 01:19:24,760
Speaker 2: still young and hip then.

1410
01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:27,960
Speaker 3: I wasn't even married, though Anthony.

1411
01:19:27,560 --> 01:19:28,960
Speaker 2: Kim was in the mix.

1412
01:19:31,240 --> 01:19:34,639
Speaker 3: That's true. Okay, all right.

1413
01:19:34,880 --> 01:19:39,599
Speaker 2: Does Phil have a chance, Yes, he's I.

1414
01:19:39,560 --> 01:19:42,679
Speaker 3: Think he's hitting it, all right, he's playing. Okay, what's

1415
01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:46,080
Speaker 3: it define a chance? I don't know.

1416
01:19:46,439 --> 01:19:48,360
Speaker 2: I think we wouldn't have said he had a chance

1417
01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:53,320
Speaker 2: before the PGA. I'll say that.

1418
01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:55,920
Speaker 3: That's probably true. Is Zeusti gonna win?

1419
01:19:56,240 --> 01:19:56,320
Speaker 1: No?

1420
01:19:57,680 --> 01:20:01,400
Speaker 3: Is he gonna top five. Yes, there's a lot of

01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:06,599

1423
01:20:06,600 --> 01:20:06,920

01:20:07,360 --> 01:20:09,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's one tea time that I left off. Bigger

1425
01:20:10,400 --> 01:20:11,160
Speaker 2: is in the field.

1426
01:20:14,680 --> 01:20:19,360
Speaker 3: He took the charter from Omaha. He who he gave

1427
01:20:19,439 --> 01:20:23,920

1433
01:20:38,880 --> 01:20:43,120
Speaker 3: hawking on social media. It's like Clark CBD something or other.

1456
01:21:46,160 --> 01:21:48,280
Speaker 2: to tell you how much you need ten hours of

Speaker 2: sleep on.

1458
01:21:49,120 --> 01:21:52,920
Speaker 3: Oh, I got my wife a whoop, took it and

1459
01:21:52,960 --> 01:21:57,120
Speaker 3: through it across the room by like day seven, most

1460
01:21:57,200 --> 01:21:58,240
Speaker 3: ridiculous contraption.

1461
01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:01,679
Speaker 2: Hopefully they're never going to be a sponsor.

1462
01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:05,920
Speaker 3: I guess not telling there's four kids. She needs to

1463
01:22:05,920 --> 01:22:09,360
Speaker 3: be going to ved ten and sleeping till eleven the

1464
01:22:09,360 --> 01:22:11,639
Speaker 3: next day, Like that's gonna happen? All right?

1465
01:22:13,360 --> 01:22:15,639
Speaker 2: A great if you're single with no kids, you can

1466
01:22:15,800 --> 01:22:20,040
Speaker 2: find no job and no job and you can follow their.

1467
01:22:20,479 --> 01:22:23,680
Speaker 3: Their their cra app for how to be maximalized or

1468
01:22:23,720 --> 01:22:27,760
Speaker 3: whatever courses works for like the Court of Sisters or

1469
01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:31,439
Speaker 3: these professional athletes who can prime their body. That's their job,

1470
01:22:31,520 --> 01:22:35,679
Speaker 3: their money. So yeah, anyways, the thing.

1471
01:22:35,640 --> 01:22:38,440
Speaker 2: The thing is it should have some like some response

1472
01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:41,839
Speaker 2: of like I understand that you can't get to one hundred,

1473
01:22:42,520 --> 01:22:45,680
Speaker 2: so let's let's get to fifty percent. That should be

1474
01:22:45,720 --> 01:22:51,000
Speaker 2: the messaging for someone that clearly is not operating at

1475
01:22:51,120 --> 01:22:53,320
Speaker 2: a peak. You know, it should be It shouldn't be

1476
01:22:53,320 --> 01:22:56,800
Speaker 2: about getting to the prime. That's completely Like your wife

1477
01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:58,639
Speaker 2: looked at and said, this is not possible.

1478
01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:02,720
Speaker 3: Can I untill ten thirty in the morning? And they

1479
01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:04,639
Speaker 3: want her to do these workouts for like an hour

1480
01:23:04,680 --> 01:23:07,360
Speaker 3: and a half, like she's in these groups and then

1481
01:23:07,560 --> 01:23:08,800
Speaker 3: you know what, most of the other people in the

1482
01:23:08,800 --> 01:23:10,840
Speaker 3: groups don't have like four kids.

1483
01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:13,559
Speaker 2: Anyways, That's what I you know, that's the thing I

1484
01:23:13,560 --> 01:23:16,639
Speaker 2: think with that I've learned with parenthood is it becomes

1485
01:23:16,640 --> 01:23:19,080
Speaker 2: so much more of a team game. It's like, hey,

1486
01:23:19,280 --> 01:23:22,679
Speaker 2: can I do this, like with your with your significant Hey,

1487
01:23:23,080 --> 01:23:25,400
Speaker 2: like my wife is k can I do yoga this

1488
01:23:25,439 --> 01:23:29,320
Speaker 2: morning at eight alf? It's like right, yeah, it's like yeah, yeah,

1489
01:23:29,360 --> 01:23:32,040
Speaker 2: you know, or no, I can't I have something you

1490
01:23:32,120 --> 01:23:35,400
Speaker 2: can't do that? Like it's so funny how it becomes that,

1491
01:23:35,600 --> 01:23:39,640
Speaker 2: and the Whoop is that's a that's an independent you know,

1492
01:23:39,680 --> 01:23:43,640
Speaker 2: there's no teamwork involved with that. That is a exclusively

1493
01:23:43,960 --> 01:23:45,720
Speaker 2: you know, selfish act.

1494
01:23:45,479 --> 01:23:52,800
Speaker 3: Of yeah performance whatever it is, self, self advancement. All right,

1495
01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:56,040
Speaker 3: I ever enjoy it. We'll be back next to Whoop
