00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 1: What is going on everybody? Sunday afternoon. Just finished watching

33
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: Xander Schafle win his first major championship Go Lo podcast

34
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: with me John Middlecoff. We are a couple of days

35
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: removed from Scotty Scheffler being in shackles, behind bars, coming

36
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 1: out and shooting five under. He got a little derailed

37
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: on Saturday, but he was coming on Sunday and I

38
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: want to dive into obviously Xander Bryson, who is just

39
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: an Electric Factory. What an entertaining individual. I think the

40
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: biggest lock of the year in golf is coming up

41
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: at Pinehurst, and I think it's pretty clear the only

42
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: thing that can slow the guy down is handcuffs, because

43
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 1: I just don't see how Scotty Scheffler loses. You can

44
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: find him right now in DraftKings at four to one.

45
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: That to me is just I just think he's gonna

46
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: win the US Open. John Ram. You know, regardless of

47
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: what you think of liv clearly some guys are able

48
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 1: to overcome it. Bryson's a good example. He's bowing in

49
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: these majors. John Rom's not. So I want to dive

50
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 1: into the impact live has happened had on him because

51
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 1: he was one of the best players in the sport.

52
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: It looked like he was about to enter legendary status

53
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: and win four or five majors, and now he can't

54
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: even make the cut at the easiest major of the year. Literally,

55
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: this might be the easiest major they have in years,

56
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: and he missed the cut. So we'll dive into that

57
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: as well as some other things. Lee Hodges passed a

58
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: kidney stone and was in the er early in the week.

59
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: Still finished in the top fifteen, So pretty remarkable week

60
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: for more of a no name type golfer to the

61
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: casual fan. We'll dive into some other stuff on the

62
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: course as well. Was it too easy, too many birdies,

63
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: not challenging enough, not as much variance. We can discuss

64
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 1: that because usually these majors can be very, very challenging.

65
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: Obviously Valhalla was not, beside getting into the gates and

66
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: the traffic jams felt like the biggest obstacle you had

67
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: to overcome because if you got on the course, you're

68
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: gonna make a lot of birdies. But we'll have some

69
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: football podcasts coming up Tuesday. We'll have Michael Lombardi former

70
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: GM talked to him last week, so love him as

71
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 1: well as mailbag. But this is gonna be PGA Championship

72
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: and golf focused. So yeah, if you listen on Collins feed,

73
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 1: make sure you subscribe to three and out feed. That's

74
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: go Low's also on that feed as well. YouTube channel.

75
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 1: Everything is up on the YouTube channel, so if you

76
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: like watching the video instead of listen to the audio,

77
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 1: we got you covered. And I'm actually rocking a go

78
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 1: Low hat right now. So the volume dot com we

79
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 1: got merch check out the go low hat and yeah,

80
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: but before we dive into golf, I actually just purchased

81
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: last night some tickets. Luke Combs here, not this weekend,

82
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 1: but next weekend is coming to Glendale. I was like, yeah, Maria,

83
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: let's go. So I got a couple of tickets. And

84
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: then this morning I woke up and I saw clips

85
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: from Levice where Luke was playing and George Kittle was

86
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 1: slamming beers stone cold style. Brock Purty was passing up beers.

87
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: Didn't look like he was drinking, but look like a

88
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: fun concert. And I plan on attending. So if you

89
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: want to attend a concert, if you want to attend

90
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 1: an event sports, pro or college. I've been locked into

91
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 1: these hockey playoffs. I don't pretend to be a hockey guy,

92
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: but I've watched more hockey probably in the last three

93
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 1: weeks than I have in my entire life. And they're fantastic.

94
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,359
Speaker 1: Vancouver's my squad. So we got a big Game seven

95
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: coming up. They got bald coaches, so that that's why

96
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 1: I latched onto them. Highly recommend watching. It's just highly entertaining.

97
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: It's like UFC meets hockey sticks, it meets the Mighty ducks.

98
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,919
Speaker 1: It's an elite product. I understand why you hockey people

99
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 1: talk up the playoffs because it's fantastic. You want to

100

108
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: Scotty though it's been a couple of days, but we

109
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: will dive into it because that was just a lot

110
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: to the golf tournament. But last week when Xanderschoffley got

111
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 1: curb stomped on Sunday by Rory, so many people and

112
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: listen I consume. People often ask me, like, what football

113
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 1: podcast you listen to. I'm like, I don't really listen

114
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: to many football podcasts. I actually listen to a lot

115
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: more golf podcasts. And I think sometimes the golf media,

116
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 1: like any media that covers a sport, sometimes can be

117
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 1: a little too close to the sun. I think they

118
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 1: were definitely early on with the live stuff a lot

119
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 1: with this golf rollback which is gonna happen, and I

120
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 1: think they struggle to just take it from the consumer standpoint,

121
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: just the majority of people that enjoy watching golf on

122
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: their couch that go out and hack it around a

123
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: little bit. And Xander got crucified last week. Choke artists

124
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: never gonna win, can't get it done. Rory shot like

125
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: sixty under on Sunday. There is not a soul maybe

126
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: Tiger Woods in his prime that would have had a

127
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: chance against that version. And I understand Xander has not

128
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: won a major up until today, but the way he

129
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: was talked about like he's some complete choke artist, and

130
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know if I really see that.

131
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: We have definitely seen some people in golf choke over

132
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 1: the years, and obviously Xander has had some moments that

133
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: he would like back. There's a famous one against Hadeki,

134
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: which again, even if he doesn't fuck up on whole

135
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: sixteen at the Masters, not sure he wins that tournament.

136
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 1: But they mentioned today on the broadcast, and if you

137
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: go to his Wikipedia page and you type in performance

138
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: in Majors, he has yellows all over it. Why because

139
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: you get a yellow for a top ten. Coming into today,

140
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 1: he had twelve top tens and majors, he had six

141
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: top fives. So in the biggest moments in a sport where,

142
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: let's face it, a lot of guys let you down,

143
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: this guy constantly shows up. Is he Tiger Woods? Is

144
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: he Phil Mickelson, Is he Rory or Scottie? No, he's not,

145
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: but he is clearly by a mile, one of the

146
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: best players on the PGA Tour, I would say now

147
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: for three or four years running. And here's the thing.

148
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: In golf, it is not like the team sports that

149
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: we all watch. This is not football or basketball. Today

150
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 1: the Knicks had two options. They could win or they

151
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 1: could lose. Obviously they got destroyed, but they didn't have

152
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: an option. Well, we finished third, we did okay. In golf,

153
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 1: that's not you don't win or you lose. So when

154
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 1: you're constantly rattling off seconds and thirds, even last week

155
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: when Rory destroyed him on Sunday, he beat everyone else

156
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 1: in the field. Which next year, Quail Hollow is hosting

157
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: a major. And Quail Hollow, don't blame you if he

158
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 1: didn't watch, but I did a lot of it was

159
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: playing dramatically harder than this week. He beat everybody on

160
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: the in the field beside Rory by three shots. Why

161
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: he made two point six million dollars. So when you

162
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 1: watch Xander Schoffley and I texted a couple buddies this

163
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,199
Speaker 1: when he was walking up to the putt on eighteen,

164
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: I think he makes this because I wasn't that confident.

165
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,199
Speaker 1: We'll get into Bryson here in a minute. If he

166
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,199
Speaker 1: makes this like this, guy's gonna be a multiple time

167
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: major champion, multiple time. And it's I always enjoy in

168
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 1: this sport when a guy like Steve Young once famously

169
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: said in the ninety five Super Bowl to Gary Plumber,

170
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: take the monkey off my back. The reason there was

171
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 1: a monkey on Steve's back all those years one he

172
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: was trying to live up to Joe Montana. Until it's

173
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: hard to win a Super Bowl. It's hard to get

174
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: it done. But anyone that watched Steve Young like I

175
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: did when I was a kid, and I used to

176
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,199
Speaker 1: argue with my dad a lot about this, like Steve

177
00:09:58,320 --> 00:09:59,839
Speaker 1: just as good as Joe, even though I never really

178
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: wan watched Joe play, and I was probably wrong, But

179
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: the point is, like Steve's a championship level player. It's

180
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: gonna happen if you watch Sander long enough, which everyone

181
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 1: in the golf media does, Like that's a championship level player.

182
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: We've all seen some random champions like Scottie, Scheffler, Rory

183
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 1: and Tiger don't win every major, and it was just

184
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: cool to watch him get it done. And the shot

185
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 1: he hit on eighteen. We've all, I mean most of

186
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 1: us more than most are hitting it all over the

187
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: place on any golf round, so we have a lot of,

188
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: you know, approach shots like the one he had on

189
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: eighteen where his golf ball was outside of the sand

190
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 1: trap and his feet were probably three or four feet

191
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 1: below the ball, and let's face it, most of us,

192
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 1: even good players, chunk it, flare it way left, do

193
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: something really bad. I think obviously the chip shot and

194
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: the putt will be, you know, the putt will be

195
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 1: so far his most memorable moment of his career. But

196
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: I think that shot from the bunker is the best

197
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: shot of his career given what was on the line,

198
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 1: and as he mentioned the nance once he was hosting

199
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: the trophy and kind of giving his speech, to Amanda

200
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 1: on the eighteenth Green, is like, I didn't want to

201
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 1: go into a playoff against Bryson because, let's face it,

202
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: if he went into a playoff against Bryson, we all

203
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: would have thought Bryson was gonna win. And if that

204
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: had taken place in some hypothetical world, what he's supposed

205
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: to say, Yeah, he lost to Bryson. You know, a

206
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,439
Speaker 1: guy that's won the US Amateur, won the US Open,

207
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: been winning tournaments for about fifteen years now at every level,

208
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: and is easily one of the best players of his generation.

209
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: But I'm glad Xander got this done so we can

210
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 1: stop talking about like he's never gonna get it. That's

211
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,680
Speaker 1: not usually the way it works, especially when you just

212
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: look at it from like a statistical standpoint. If you

213
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,439
Speaker 1: put yourself in the mix as often as he does,

214
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: you're bound to win one. And the reality is, when

215
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 1: you're as talented Asxander, you're probably bound to win several

216
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: because Phil Mickelson, who's a better player obviously than Xander,

217
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,479
Speaker 1: and even if Xander, you know, takes the most advantage

218
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 1: possible of his career, will not end up with the

219
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: resume of Phil Mickelson. But Xander had twelve top tens

220
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 1: in majors before he finally won one. Phil had seventeen.

221
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: So when you're in the mix, that often eventually something's

222
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: gonna fall your way. When you're that good, you're that long,

223
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 1: and you've had and you've just been in these moments

224
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 1: that many times. It's why as the cream started rising

225
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: as today went, you know, the two guys who were

226
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: in the mix the most kind of were there when

227
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 1: the dust settled. And speaking of Bryson, we're not that

228
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:58,079
Speaker 1: far removed when everyone in the golf world, but even

229
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: I would say the random sport fan that follows like stars,

230
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: we're kind of shitting on the guy, making a lot

231
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,319
Speaker 1: of fun of them. And listen, is he a weird cat? One?

232
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 1: Golfers in general are that they play a sport by themselves.

233
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: This is not a team game, and Bryson is probably

234
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: the weirdest and does the quirkiest stuff. But I think

235
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 1: since Bryson ballooned like he was playing defensive tackle for

236
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys, he's actually become much more likable because

237
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 1: I would say several years ago everyone was on the

238
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,079
Speaker 1: side of Koepka. Now, clearly that was kind of I

239
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,319
Speaker 1: don't know if it was a manipulated beef. They ended

240
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: up playing a match and now their buddies on Live.

241
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: But I saw a day and you saw all week

242
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 1: people rooting for Bryson. You know why he's fun. I've

243
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: been falling his YouTube page for a while. It's really entertaining.

244
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 1: And here's the thing about Bryson, and we'll get into

245
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 1: ram here in a little bit. Live clearly is not

246
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 1: for everybody to keep their talents and their abilities at

247
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 1: the highest of levels. Bryson d Chambeau went to Live

248
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: because they offered him a ton of money. And Phil

249
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: Mickelson is probably his closest mentor I don't know if

250
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 1: they still are, but definitely several years ago when he

251
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 1: made the jump, he idolized Phil because they're both kind

252
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: of different. Here's the thing about Bryson, though, that you

253
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: could put them on the corn Ferry Tour, you could

254
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: put him on the Asian Tour, you could put him

255
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: on any tour, and he'd still give you everything he has.

256
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: He's not married, he doesn't have kids. He is a

257
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 1: golf addict, and since losing the weight and creating these

258
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: new three D clubs, which he talks about on his

259
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 1: YouTube page. He has become a dominant major player Augusta.

260
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: A lot of people made fun of him because several

261
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: years ago he claimed it was par sixty seven and

262
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: then he proceeded to shoot like seventy five seventy five

263
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: and everyone laughed at him. Well, he's kind of figure

264
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: that out because he was right in the mix this year.

265
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: If it wasn't for a couple of bad chips, he

266
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 1: would have been right there with Scotty. And then today,

267
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 1: I mean, he's got to be kicking himself because there's

268
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: a short part four which he powered. He did not

269
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: Birdie Hoole ten. And he's just a special entertaining player

270
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: and golf doesn't have many of those. Most golfers are

271
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: pretty boring. They don't bring much the table beside their

272
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 1: golfing ability. Guys like Tiger that are superstars come around

273
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: once in a generation. Sometimes you skip a generation, and

274
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: we're currently doing that. It wasn't it took Scotty Scheffer

275
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: getting arrested and putting into a jumpsuit, I would say,

276
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: to transcend his fame, and it's still nowhere near Arnold Palmer,

277
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: Tiger Woods and some of these athletes help. Rory is

278
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: a much bigger star from a name recognition standpoint, But

279
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 1: I think Bryson has thrown his hat in that ring.

280
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: And if you go to his YouTube channel and you

281
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: see the following in the views his videos get I'll

282
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 1: promise you this. He's resonating with young people and us

283
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 1: older people really enjoy wathing him play why. He doesn't

284
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: look like anybody else, he doesn't swing like anybody else,

285
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: he doesn't play like anybody else. All of his clubs

286
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 1: are the same length. He hits the ball like three

287
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards and it seems like he could

288
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 1: swing a little harder if you tried. So I'm glad

289
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: Bryson was in the mix. I hope he's in the

290
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: mix every single one of these majors. And I've been

291
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 1: saying this for a while. When it comes to live,

292
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 1: we really miss him. He has missed why because he's

293
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: one of the rare needle movers in the sport. I

294
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: respect the hell out of Xander. I think he's been

295
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: one of the better players clearly of the last half decade.

296
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: He's not as entertaining as prison. He doesn't get people

297
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: to the TV. He doesn't create social memes that have

298
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 1: everyone's talking about. So I'm just glad people have kind

299
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,439
Speaker 1: of embraced the quirky, weird guy because when he's on

300
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:20,239
Speaker 1: the television screen, it's hard to look away. Let me

301
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: preface this by saying someone died on Friday morning and

302
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 1: it was a volunteer awful tragedy. I mean, that's terrible,

303
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: embarrassing for the tournament. Clearly, the situation of getting into

304
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 1: the tournament was a debacle, was really really bad, And

305
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: texting with Jason Sobol who was there for Serious XM,

306
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 1: it's pretty clear no tournament's ever coming back here from

307
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:54,640
Speaker 1: a major standpoint. So the issues with the logistics, the

308
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 1: ingress egress as they like to call it, I know

309
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 1: those words very well from the Mark Davis Stadium pursuit

310
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: were an embarrassment. They really were. Because even will z

311
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 1: Ala Torres said that he walked from his Airbnb because

312
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: he after the Scotti Scheffler situation happened, it wasn't even

313
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,880
Speaker 1: worth it to try to battle through traffic. With all

314
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 1: that being said, I do think the Scotti Scheffler arrest

315
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: is the best thing and most interesting thing that happened

316
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: to golf in years and I couldn't get enough of it.

317
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 1: I mean, they put the guy in an orange jumpsuit.

318
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 1: That mugshot is something that will live on for a

319
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 1: long long time. And one of the knocks on Scottie

320
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 1: is he's pretty boring. He's a god fearing man, talks

321
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: about his faith very consistently, openly and basically daily. He's married,

322
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: he now is a child. There's not much there in

323
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: terms of entertainment value beside his golf shots, which he

324
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,360
Speaker 1: clearly is the best golfer in the world. But when

325
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,159
Speaker 1: you get arrested and you get put in an orange

326
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 1: jumpsuit and you say, after your round on Friday, one

327
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 1: of the sheriffs looked at you and said, do you

328
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,879
Speaker 1: want the full experience? And he said sure, and he

329
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 1: ate a sandwich and he stretched for his round in jail.

330
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 1: I don't know if we're ever going to get that again.

331
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 1: And in a day and age when professional golf is

332
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 1: really struggling to move the needle to get casuals to

333
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 1: tune in a sport that is losing viewers at ten

334
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 1: to twenty percent clips, it's in a bad spot. They

335
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 1: needed this moment, they really did, and I'm glad it happened.

336
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 1: The only shitty part for myself is that it happened

337
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 1: on East Coast time, at like three in the morning.

338
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 1: I took a couple of late sleeping pills. Hadn't been

339
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: sleeping well last week, wanted to get up pretty early.

340
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 1: Kind of came to it like six fifteen, six twenty,

341
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,880
Speaker 1: and I remember being a little out of it. Melatonin's

342
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 1: not sleeping pills, but I take about thirty five milligrams,

343
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: looked at my phone and all these people are texting

344
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 1: me pictures of him. I didn't even know what was

345
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: going on. And then you wake up and Jeff Darlington,

346
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: who I'm ready for him to break the TUA contract

347
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 1: or talk to me about Tom Brady returning from retirement,

348
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: is just on the ground floor getting the visuals. And

349
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 1: by the time I kind of came to put on

350
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 1: my clothes walk out, he's teeing off. Then he birdies

351
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 1: one and shoots five under. I think it's one of

352
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:37,119
Speaker 1: the greatest non Tiger moments, and Tiger's had a lot

353
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 1: of great ones on and off the course in my

354
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 1: lifetime watching golf the entertainment standpoint, how great social media was?

355
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: I truly believe, and social media can be a negative place.

356
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 1: It can be where a lot of angry people go

357
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: to hang out. I thought it really flexed his muscles.

358
00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:00,920
Speaker 1: It made me laugh over and over and over again.

359
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,639
Speaker 1: And anytime you can put a smile on my face

360
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 1: or put a smile on everybody's face, because that's what

361
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: it was constantly doing, I'm here for it. But I

362
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 1: do think the most remarkable thing about Scotty Shuffler is

363
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 1: on Saturday, where he clearly was running out of adrenaline,

364
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 1: the aftermath of getting detained, arrested, put in a jumpsuit.

365
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: He was back. He shot his first overpar round in

366
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: basically a calendar year, and then today you look up

367
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 1: and he's storming back. He ends up finishing in the

368
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:40,239
Speaker 1: top ten. He was in jail on Friday morning. His

369
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 1: caddy because his son is graduating high school, left Ted Scott,

370
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,959
Speaker 1: who's Bubba Watson's caddy forever, leaves to come with Scotty.

371
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,920
Speaker 1: And since they paired up, they have become a dominant

372
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: duo and Scotty ended up having like the local pasture

373
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 1: for the PGA tour caddy for him and he wasn't

374
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 1: right and it didn't go well, and then he shot

375
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: I think five hundred to day. Here's what I know.

376
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 1: And like I said, this is not football or basketball

377
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,360
Speaker 1: where you feel like this is a lock. I'm recording

378
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 1: this before the Nuggets Minnesota game, like I'll be shocked

379
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: if the Nuggets lose, Like there are certain things we

380
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: like to say in football and in you know, game

381
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: seven of a baseball series, like this is a lock.

382
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 1: You can never say that in golf because it's the

383
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,439
Speaker 1: field of one hundred and fifty people. So even Tiger

384
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: and his prime Jack and his prime Scotty in his prime,

385
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:36,680
Speaker 1: there are a lot of variables. There's not fifteen other

386
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,959
Speaker 1: guys could be having career weeks and you have a

387
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 1: couple battle stretch, it can be a problem. I truly

388
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 1: believe this to my core. And we talked about this

389
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 1: a couple weeks ago. I'm like Scotty Scheffler forty to one.

390
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 1: And the thing I thought what gave me hesitation was

391
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,199
Speaker 1: his wife's about to have a baby. He's gonna be

392
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 1: sleeping weird, His practice schedule could be a little bit off.

393
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: It would not effaced him if he wasn't detained and arrested.

394
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 1: All charges have been dropped Scott. He's a free man.

395
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,359
Speaker 1: I think I don't know if he wins this, but

396
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: he would have been right there. I truly believe in

397
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 1: my soul and I plan on. I don't like doing

398
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 1: futures because I don't like having my money held up

399
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 1: for so long. But right now he's four to one

400
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 1: to win at Pinehurst. I think he has a lock

401
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 1: to win at Pinehurst. I think he is a lock,

402
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: and I think it will cap off. If he wins

403
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 1: multiple majors, he'd be the lock player of the year.

404
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 1: He'd be having one of the great seasons of all time.

405
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: The jail detention incident will add to the legend because

406
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: one thing Scotty needed was something crazy, was something to

407
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 1: just draw everyone in, and Bryson has had that NonStop.

408
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,880
Speaker 1: Bryson went from like two hundred pounds to two hundred

409
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: and fifty pounds. He was eating like nine thousand calories

410
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: a day and trying to hit the ball three hundred

411
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:59,639
Speaker 1: and eighty yards. He transcended golf. If you followed sports,

412
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: you kind of knew who Bryson was. BF Bryson putting

413
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 1: his both arms up at Bayhill. He had moments he

414
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:11,679
Speaker 1: was getting in constant fights with Brooks Koepka, who was

415
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: the most accomplished champion on the PGA Tour. Scotty was

416
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 1: just a great golfer. They talked about God a lot

417
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 1: had a child like playing golf. And now when you

418
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 1: think Scotty Scheffler, you will think that orange jumpsuit. So,

419
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 1: like I said, I truly believe this. That's the most

420
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 1: interesting thing that happened to golf in a long long time.

421
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: Speaking of what's not interesting anymore, the Live PGA Tour conversation, Like,

422
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 1: I'm bored of it. Just tell me when there's a deal,

423
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,160
Speaker 1: tell me when they're getting together. Here's the thing with Bryson,

424
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 1: Like I said, I think Bryson could play. If you

425
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 1: forced him to play on the corn Ferry Tour, he'd

426
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 1: be fine. If you forced him to only do YouTube

427
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,399
Speaker 1: golf and show up at the majors, I think he

428
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 1: would be fine. He is the ultimate lone wolf DJ.

429
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,679
Speaker 1: A couple of years ago, when Live first started, he

430
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 1: was playing at a really high level. Went on LIV

431
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:10,639
Speaker 1: dominated Now he's kind of a joke. John Rahm is

432
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,679
Speaker 1: a good example. I've said this over and over. I

433
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 1: don't have any it will I don't care, and I

434
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,639
Speaker 1: would have done the same thing, take all the money

435
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: to go to that tour, but I think we have

436
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 1: to embrace what they do on that tour does not

437
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,880
Speaker 1: get you ready for this, and it really has John

438
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: Rohm rattled. If you took Lamar Jackson or Josh Allen

439
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,639
Speaker 1: to the UFL and they had to play for a

440
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: team in the UFL and then once a month when

441
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 1: the Ravens or Bills played another playoff team, they had

442
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 1: to start a game and play that week for the

443
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 1: NFL team, they would not be as good because in

444
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: professional sports, just like in any competitive industry, iron sharpens iron.

445
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: And I think John Rahm's comments earlier this week where

446
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,439
Speaker 1: he was asked about, you know, the situation and not

447
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 1: being able to play PGA Tour events and how he

448
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 1: and he said, I still view myself as a PGA

449
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 1: Tour member. John rom was very I wouldn't say as

450
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: strong as Rory, but was in that mold of being

451
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 1: very anti lift. He thought what they did was a joke.

452
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 1: The shotgun starts the fifty four holes. He even said

453
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: it the masters, I want to play seventy two holes.

454
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 1: He is a good example of a guy that use

455
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:36,160
Speaker 1: these tournaments on the PGA Tour to stay dialed in.

456
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 1: And just a year ago, right around this time, it

457
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 1: was clear he was one of the best players in

458
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 1: the world, and it looked like we were going to

459
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 1: have like a three horse race Scottie, Rom and Rory

460
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 1: all time great players, major champions, guys that were just

461
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: gonna go down as absolute legends. And Rom's not forty

462
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 1: years old. His career is not over. Like DJ's clearly

463
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 1: mailed it in. And I don't blamed DJ for mailing

464
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 1: it in, but I think we have to acknowledge he's

465
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: mailed it in. John Rohm wants to play well, but

466
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: LIV does not prepare him for that. And I don't

467
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 1: care how many thousand dollars games he gets at Whisper

468
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,479
Speaker 1: Rock or Silver Leaf, it's not doing it. He was

469
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 1: terrible at the Masters. He missed the cut at this tournament.

470
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: This tournament, while I was very entertained on my couch,

471
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 1: was not a difficult major. Someone texts me, they're like,

472
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,679
Speaker 1: everyone talked shit. Last year at LACC there were like

473
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: twelve guys under par. Look at the leader board today

474
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 1: of how many guys shot under par. I think the

475
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 1: numbers like well over fifty. I didn't look at it

476
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: right before I walked in. This is the lowest winning

477
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:48,920
Speaker 1: score ever, partly because it wasn't that difficult. The other thing,

478
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 1: the defense of the course was it was really long. Well,

479
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,920
Speaker 1: you're telling me if John Rahm last year came into

480
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 1: this tournament not a very difficult course and his defense

481
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 1: is well, he's one of the longer players in the sport,

482
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 1: he would have been fine. I'm not saying he wins

483
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 1: the tournament, but missing the cut. I watched him a

484
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 1: lot on Thursday. I'm like, this guy is liable to helicopter,

485
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 1: a club and a fan. This guy is going to

486
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 1: snap something over his knee. He ended up throwing a club.

487
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 1: But it's sat like it really is. And this is

488
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 1: where I think I can relate to most people who

489
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:36,160
Speaker 1: love golf. This whole thing is not working out for anybody.

490
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 1: Everyone on the PGA Tour that matters is super rich.

491
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: All the guys that matter on LIV are even richer.

492
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: Like I don't care about who's getting equity, how much

493
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,239
Speaker 1: money this get no one. We're just talking about rich guys, Like,

494
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 1: none of these guys are some practice squad player on

495
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals trying to make the fifty three man Xander,

496
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: whether he would have won this tournament or would have

497
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 1: shanked it on eighteen, is still living on the biggest

498
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 1: house on the block he lives on, and he probably

499
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 1: has several more. So, Yeah, he turned down a lot

500
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 1: of money to go to live. It doesn't ultimately matter.

501
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: He's at the point where most things in his life

502
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: are free. He hasn't been to a commercial airport probably

503
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: in six seven years, just like all the other top

504
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 1: thirty forty players in the sport and majority of the

505
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 1: live guys. But one thing Live has done by offering

506
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 1: John Rohm so much money he couldn't turn it down.

507
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,479
Speaker 1: Someone on Golf Channel said it was five hundred million dollars.

508
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 1: I think it's fair to assume it's somewhere between three

509
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: point fifty and five hundred is. It derailed his career

510
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 1: and that's sad. Like the reason we're so excited for

511
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: this NFL season is to see how special all the

512
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 1: top quarterbacks can be. Like, can Lamar finally get over

513
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 1: the hump? Can Josh Allen take down Patrick Mahomes? What

514
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: is Joe Burrow gonna look like? We're talking about guys

515
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: that have a chance to be all time players. That's

516
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 1: why we watch professional sports to see the best of

517
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 1: the best, to watch Joe Montana, to watch Tom Brady,

518
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 1: you know, to watch Steph Curry, to watch these guys

519
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: in the peak of their powers, in the biggest moments.

520
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 1: And we're just getting this guy because of the tour

521
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: that he chose to play on. Who's lost it and

522
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 1: who's kind of told you without telling you, Yeah, this

523
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 1: is not working for me, But they paid me so

524
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: much fucking coin, I couldn't turn it down. And I

525
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 1: think the ultimate result of this for me is just

526
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 1: kind of sadness because it just kind of sucks. And

527
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,719
Speaker 1: I think that sums up the entire situation where just

528
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: going back and forth, you got forty eight year old

529
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 1: Tiger Woods who's just not going to be making cuts anymore.

530
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 1: Running point on this, and I've seen a lot of

531
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: people talk about when you're doing a business deal of

532
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 1: this magnitude, why are there this many players involved, like

533
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 1: they're gonna get so much money no matter what. Why

534
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 1: don't we have some people that know business, that know

535
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: what will do the best for us. The people that

536
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 1: essentially pay the bills by watching because NBC and CBS

537
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,959
Speaker 1: gave the tour so much money. The reason it doesn't

538
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 1: matter for live they get no television ratings because no

539
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 1: one watches. It doesn't matter. They have a backing. But

540
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 1: that's not normal, that's unrealistic. Why most people thought that

541
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: they just started that to eventually force a merger with

542
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 1: the PGA Tour and get the access to the courses

543
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: and the television contracts. But if you would have told

544
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 1: me a year ago that John Rahm would be a

545
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: non factor, I just wouldn't have believed you. Now, it's

546
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 1: part of the deal. You have bad tournaments, it's part

547
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 1: of the sport. But to just be this shitty I

548
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: think sucks. A couple of things. I still can't get over.

549
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 1: Scotty in the mugshot and guys having the mugshot t

550
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 1: shirts on the course on Friday. Scotty, you know famously

551
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: that the Tiger with you know, some of his women

552
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 1: on the shirts and Tiger giving little little smiles. It

553
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 1: wasn't quite that, but I think Scotty knew, which it's

554
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 1: probably sucked for him Friday morning getting arrested, detained, and

555
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: he got lucky he did get very lucky that there

556
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: was a rain delay, and who knows, maybe they could

557
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: have played in the rain and they kind of pushed

558
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 1: it back for him because that would have been a

559
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 1: that would have been a tough one for the Valhalla president,

560
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: board members and just club operators to ever shake. But

561
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 1: I guess jail's the only thing that can kind of

562
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,240
Speaker 1: slow him down. Hit on a couple of quick things.

563
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 1: The golf course. I don't think we're ever coming back here.

564
00:32:56,040 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: I think that's pretty well established. I found today entertaining

565
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 1: because of Bryson making the run at Xander and seeing

566
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 1: Exander could finally get over the hump. But the thing

567
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:12,240
Speaker 1: I love about major golf is the difficulty. I don't

568
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 1: need even PARR, just like if you want to give

569
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 1: me fifty the final score. The relation to PARR is

570
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 1: kind of irrelevant to me. It's more about the difficulty

571
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 1: of the holes and knowing when you're watching a guy

572
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 1: chase someone, this is going to be a really hard

573
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 1: seventeenth hole. If you miss it in the left, you're boned.

574
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: You're getting an automatic bogie and double is in play.

575
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: That was not the case. How many doubles did you

576
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 1: feel we're even remotely close. The last couple of days

577
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: watching all the leaders, Xander made one, but it was

578
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 1: a freaky one because he airmailed a green, he got

579
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 1: a shitty lie, and he had a bad chip. But

580
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 1: when you watch most Majors, you'll see it at Pinehurst,

581
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: when you miss a green in the wrong spot, you're done.

582
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 1: You got no shot, And that's what this course just

583
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: didn't have. Clearly. It was really long, and beside Bryson,

584
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: these guys are all hitting five irons and three irons

585
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 1: into greens. But part of the problem is they're not us.

586
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 1: You put a five iron into a guy's hand on

587
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: a straightaway shot with a soft green, they're gonna hit

588
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: it twenty twenty five feet. So I think the tale

589
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: of this week, beside Xander winning it and obviously Scotty

590
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 1: getting arrested, is this course was just way too easy

591
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 1: for these guys. And part of the reason I think

592
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: we all thought it was gonna be hard for Xander

593
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: to implode is because there just aren't big numbers out

594
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,920
Speaker 1: on this course, and the moment you get a bogie,

595
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 1: you can easily birdy the next hole, and that just

596
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: shouldn't be the case of these majors right Augusta is

597
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:57,280
Speaker 1: its own unique operation. And when we go across the pond,

598
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,360
Speaker 1: whether it's the old course, whether it's whatever else is

599
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: in the rotation, they're very, very dependent on the weather.

600
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 1: When the weather goes, it's really difficult. When the weather

601
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:12,879
Speaker 1: does not, it's not but that's where golf started. It's

602
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:16,439
Speaker 1: been going over there for hundreds of years. We're cool

603
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: with it. But when you play the US Open and

604
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: now the PGA Championship, which is trying to be like

605
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 1: the poor man's version of the US Open, I kind

606
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:29,879
Speaker 1: of want some difficulty. I don't need impossible, but there

607
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:33,480
Speaker 1: should be multiple holes, especially coming down the stretch where

608
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 1: this is going to be a tough par and if

609
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,760
Speaker 1: you miss on a drive in the wrong spot, buckle

610
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:44,399
Speaker 1: up because par Is by no means a gimme and

611
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,880
Speaker 1: a bogie is a major, major option. And that was

612
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: not the case today. Just look at this course. I mean,

613
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 1: Bryson shot seven under, xandershot six under, which was entertaining.

614
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 1: I'm not acting like I wasn't riveted on my couch,

615
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 1: but that's I watch all these tournaments that felt like

616
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 1: a really, really good PGA Tour tournament, not one of

617
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 1: the four Majors of the year. A couple other quick things.

618
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:16,320
Speaker 1: When I was a kid, I vividly remember multiple times

619
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 1: my dad got kidney stones, and one time I'm like,

620
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 1: is he gonna die? You could hear him moaning. It

621
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,720
Speaker 1: just looked. It was hard to grasp when you're like eleven,

622
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 1: twelve years old, even what a kidney stone is. I'm

623
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:32,360
Speaker 1: not even sure I quite knew. I just knew he

624
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 1: was sick, but he was basically just bedridden for multiple days,

625
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,839
Speaker 1: in complete shambles. And I've never had one. I've known

626
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 1: a couple of people that have, and every single human says,

627
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 1: or every guy says, it's I think women can have

628
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 1: him too, But obviously the guy that the tracks is

629
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 1: a little smaller is the worst experience you can have.

630
00:36:56,360 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 1: And Lee Hodges, who I don't know much about, finished

631
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:05,360
Speaker 1: T twelve this week, had kidney stones on Tuesday and

632
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: had to go to the emergency room. And Marty Smith,

633
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: who's SEC guy, talked to Lee and he said, on

634
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 1: a scale of one to ten, what was the pain?

635
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,840
Speaker 1: And Lee said a forty seven. And I just remember

636
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,720
Speaker 1: going back into my dad's room and seeing a fifty

637
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 1: year old guy curled up in the fetal position, and

638
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: I think about that now, I know it's like a

639
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:34,360
Speaker 1: calcium build up. Something I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy.

640
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 1: Well might wish it on a couple enemies, But to

641
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,719
Speaker 1: have kidney stones early in the week, go to the

642
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:43,919
Speaker 1: emergency room and then probably have one of the best

643
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,320
Speaker 1: tournaments of the year for yourself, maybe of your career.

644
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,759
Speaker 1: Pretty cool moment, you know. I would say if you

645
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:55,760
Speaker 1: told most non superstars, hey, would you take a kidney

646
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 1: stone on Monday or Tuesday to get a top fifteen

647
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 1: in a major? I think most would sign up for it,

648
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,280
Speaker 1: even though it's not gonna be a fun Monday or Tuesday.

649
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 1: Once you get to Sunday, it's all gravy and that

650
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 1: check's pretty large. Shane Lowry sixty two on Saturday was

651
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 1: pretty fun to watch. Just kind of looks like an everyman.

652
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:22,239
Speaker 1: You know, he's major champion, big burly guy. If you

653
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 1: had to go top five people to have a bunch

654
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 1: of beers with on the PGA Tour, Shane Lowry might

655
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,759
Speaker 1: be like top three. He looks relatable to like type

656
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:36,359
Speaker 1: guys you just play golf with with your friends, your

657
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:40,319
Speaker 1: dad's friends, he seems like a fantastic guy, and he's

658
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 1: obviously a really good player, but he had a pretty

659
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 1: good chance to have the lowest round in the history

660
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 1: of a major championship. He had a very good look

661
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:53,400
Speaker 1: on eighteen. He just missed a little bit below the hole.

662
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 1: But the dude was just smiling ear to ear. He

663
00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 1: really was, and that was another thing. Back to Bryson.

664
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 1: One thing we miss with Tiger being removed is just emotion.

665
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:09,400
Speaker 1: Like Xander's not a very emotional player. Even on eighteen

666
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 1: when he won the Major, he like put his hands up,

667
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,719
Speaker 1: but he wasn't like doing huge fist pumps. What made

668
00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 1: Tiger so special was obviously the dominance, but was the

669
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: emotion that you felt after every big shot, after every

670
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 1: big putt. He just kept you on the edge of

671
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 1: your seat. And one thing I think Bryson is really

672
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:35,279
Speaker 1: embraced is like, play to the fucking crowd. Bro get

673
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:39,360
Speaker 1: into this, make the people feel you. And he was

674
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 1: really doing it. And some you know, sports writers will say,

675
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,359
Speaker 1: you know, he's just doing it for the cameras. Well,

676
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,799
Speaker 1: I hope he was, because Tiger wasn't doing it for

677
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 1: the cameras. This is entertainment. And I'm just glad to

678
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,319
Speaker 1: have Bryson back in my life four times a year

679
00:39:55,800 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 1: because I was rooting for I really was, and that

680
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,160
Speaker 1: was fun. But I think the one thing that this

681
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:07,840
Speaker 1: PG Championship will always be remembered for is the detainment

682
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,840
Speaker 1: of the number one player in the world, Scottie Shuffler.

683
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 1: Have a great week if you get on the golf course,

684
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 1: hit him straight though you probably won't, but enjoy yourself

685
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: and I will talk to you tomorrow. The volume
