Speaker 2: this week, and I'll lot to talk about and a

16
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 2: lot to kind of parks through with all the handicaps

17
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 2: and the non handicaps and different things that we're looking at.

18
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 2: So before we go any further, give me something you

19
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 2: looking at. And oh, by the way, Hi, how you doing.

20
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 3: Jason. Great to be with you, Thrilled that we have

21
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 3: bet MGM as a sponsor I actually love betting there

22
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 3: as a Gulf better. They're unique and that they pay

23
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 3: up ties in full in their finishing position bets. So

24
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 3: love those. Thrilled they're sponsoring us, and yeah, I'm excited

25
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 3: about this week. A guy that I'm on is Colin Morrikalo,

26
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 3: who I've talked a lot about on this podcast. I

27
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 3: think he's a little undervalued coming into this week on

28
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 3: a course that sets up extremely well for Colin. So

29
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 3: Rom Morikala. Those are my two horses I normally ride

30
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 3: with and excited that I get to pivot off Rom

31
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 3: to Calin Mori Kala this week.

32
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 2: You know, I like that a lot. Peter, I'm going

33
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: with another guy whose game should be suited for east Lake.

34
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 2: But really I'm just rooting for Chaos this week because

35
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 2: last week Web Simpson was the loan player in the

36
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,120
Speaker 2: field at the BMW who decided not to play. A

37
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 2: lot of people have said, you can't skip the AFC

38
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 2: Championship game if you want to go to the Super Bowl.

39
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 2: That's not how playoffs work. Well, guess what the playoffs

40
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 2: are working that way in golf and Web Simpson may

41
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 2: have just avoided what was a basically a major Championship

42
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 2: type of atmosphere last week at Olympia Fields, which I

43
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 2: thought was fantastic, just to set up the conditions, everything

44
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 2: about it. I thought it was terrific last week. So

45
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 2: I like Web Simpson this week. I like him from

46
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 2: four Shots Back. I like him to put social media

47
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 2: on tilt this week with just He's not allowed to

48
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: do that. He can't go from not playing in a

49
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 2: playoff event to winning fifteen million dollars at just wait

50
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 2: because it's gonna happen. So before we get to the

51
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 2: Tour Championship, we're gonna talk about last week's BMW. And

52
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 2: before we get there, Pete, you and I have been

53
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,839
Speaker 2: kind of hot lately. I mean, don't like to toot

54
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 2: our own horn here. But going back to the w

55
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 2: GC FedEx Saint Jude in Memphis, my favorite guy this

56
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: week is Justin Thomas. I just think that he's trending

57
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 2: in the right direction. He tends to play these really well.

58
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: I'm going to be invested in JT this week. And

59
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 2: then you look at what we talked about before the

60
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 2: PGA Championship.

61
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 4: I like a guy like markwa I love I think,

62
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 4: give me the guy who's the best iron player, like

63
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 4: you're gonna be able to put it close to flags,

64
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 4: He'll be able to make a lot of birdies.

65
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 3: So yeah, I couldn't say enough positive things about Mark Awa.

66
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 2: And then just last week, well you know what, you

67
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:39,839
Speaker 2: and I both nailed the winner here.

68
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 3: This week, I'm going to be all over John Rahm again.

69
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 3: He is the expensive guy that I am going to

70
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 3: be paying for.

71
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 2: All right, So enough pounding on our chests and tell

72
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 2: everybody how good we are. Let's get in to what

73
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 2: happened to the BMW championship. And I will be the

74
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 2: first to admit it, Peter, I did not see John

75
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 2: going sixty six sixty four on the weekend on Friday

76
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 2: night when it looked like he was out of it,

77
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 2: But I am sure glad that he did, because as

78
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,839
Speaker 2: mentioned right there, you and I were both all over him,

79
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 2: and boy, have we seen a better finish than that

80
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 2: in a long time. I mean, that was fantastic. With

81
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 2: Dustin Johnson making what looked like an unmakable butt on

82
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 2: that eighteenth green in regulation, and then John Rahm making

83
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 2: what looked like a more unmakable butt in the playoff.

84
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 2: I just thought it was some terrific stuff, and I

85
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 2: don't think anyone could argue with that.

86
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 3: No, And I guess we do have a finish that

87
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 3: was I would say as good, but very maybe maybe

88
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 3: as good at the workday with JT and Colin more

89
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 3: Kaua making bomb to bomb, But then the Vinyl hole

90
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 3: was not as interesting just because Markaua kind of locked

91
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 3: it up with where JT went off the team. But

92
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 3: all four of those guys, I mean, those are four

93
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 3: of the top five or six players in the world,

94
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 3: and it's amazing. These guys are making these long bombs

95
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 3: when they have to, and it's almost it's like, I'm

96
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 3: the best player in the world. No, I'm the best

97
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 3: player in the world. Oh, I'm the best player in

98
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 3: the world. Like you see, I'm you know. We both

99
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 3: have played money games with amateurs and I'm certainly a

100
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 3: hack and you get you get in these gambling moments

101
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 3: and you see people just choke it away and you know,

102
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 3: and those situations were like praying for a two pot.

103
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 3: These guys are splashing these one percent putts at an

104
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 3: unreal clip and it was so fun to watch. I

105
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 3: definitely lost a year or so off. My life was

106
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 3: very heavily invested in John Ram, and yeah, it's fun

107
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 3: that we've been hot, but uh, you know, I've both

108
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 3: talked about it. It's you can't pout yourself too much

109
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 3: on the back when you're taking John Ram the favorite

110
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 3: and JT and whatnot. But we're happy, We're we're definitely, uh,

111
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 3: you know, it's been a it's been a good stretch here.

112
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,039
Speaker 3: So DJ has made brooks Kepka look really stupid, which

113
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 3: makes me happy. And John Ram, who I've talked a

114
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 3: ton about in this podcast, you can make the argument

115
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 3: for three or four guys, maybe five guys, is the

116
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 3: best player in the world. And you certainly can do

117
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 3: it for John Ram, who has zero weaknesses in his

118
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 3: golf game.

119
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 2: So there are a lot of ways I can and

120
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 2: go after that.

121
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 4: And that was all very.

122
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 2: Very well put by you. I guess the first thing

123
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 2: I'd say is that I have been basically holding on

124
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 2: to Bryson d. Chambeau the entire year for the US Open.

125
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 2: I said, look, this is not your father's US Open.

126
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 2: This is not the US Open anymore that gets won

127
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 2: by Corey Paven or Lee Jensen or Jim Fuorick. This

128
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 2: is a US Open that over the last four years

129
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 2: has been won by brooks Kepka twice, Gary Woodland, Dustin Johnson.

130
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 2: And this is the domain of the big boys now. Look,

131
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 2: basically what happens at the US Open these days is

132
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 2: everybody's going to miss the fairway. You've got to be

133
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 2: big enough and strong enough and athletic enough to hit

134
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,160
Speaker 2: the ball out of the rough. And so I've been

135
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 2: thinking for nine months now that Bryson D Chambeau is

136
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 2: going to be my guy at wingfoot, And you know what,

137
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 2: I think I might be changing that opinion. Not that

138
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 2: I don't like bryceon moving forward. But John Rahm has

139
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 2: won the two easily the two most difficult tournaments of

140
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 2: the summer on the PGA Tour, in the Memorial Tournament

141
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 2: and the BMW Championship, each time being docked a stroke

142
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 2: or two strokes with a penalty that really didn't wind

143
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 2: up mattering, I guess in the end, although I guess

144
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 2: he would have avoided having to roll in a sixty

145
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 2: six footer on Sunday in that one but this past weekend,

146
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 2: but really being able to overcome penalties in both situations

147
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 2: and still win those golf tournaments just goes to show

148
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 2: first of all how good he is. Secondly, how good

149
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 2: he is on really difficult golf courses in tough conditions.

150
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's an excellent point, Jason, And it was great

151
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 3: to hear Jason Day talk about how he wants courses

152
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 3: to play tough, and you hear the top players say,

153
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 3: you know what, I like the tough conditions because tough

154
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 3: conditions normally yield the best results for the top players

155
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 3: in terms of their position. The harder it is, the

156
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 3: more skillful it is. And the Birdie Fest you can see.

157
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 3: I mean, I like the Bertie Fest for dfs and

158
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 3: it's fun set certain weeks, but you know, anyone can

159
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 3: really go out and win a berdie Fest. All these

160
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 3: guys are good, they can all stake shots. But when

161
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 3: you have really tough conditions, you have to have all

162
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 3: facets of your game working and you have to be

163
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 3: skillful in all those elements. So, yeah, it's well said.

164
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 3: John Rahm has no weaknesses. He's played extremely well in

165
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 3: the toughest courses. And if you pull the top ten players,

166
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 3: you know where skill shines through the most. They're gonna

167
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 3: stay on tough golf courses.

168
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 2: And how good has golf been over the last two

169
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 2: two and a half months. I mean, I know there

170
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 2: were some people saying early and the restart. Hey, look,

171
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 2: there have been some positive cases. Maybe the PGA Tour

172
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 2: came back too soon, and maybe this is unresponsible to

173
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 2: have the guys out there and traveling and staying in hotels. Well,

174
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 2: it's worked really well over the last six to eight weeks.

175
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 2: And not only is it working well sort of off

176
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 2: the golf course, but on the golf course. I mean,

177
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 2: you mentioned JT and more Cow in the playoff, and

178
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 2: JT's obviously played really well. More Cow with two wins,

179
00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 2: including a major championship. DJ has done DJ things, done

180
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 2: RAM things. I mean, we've gotten the best of the best,

181
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 2: for the most part, playing their best golf. Rory McElroy

182
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 2: is a glaring exception, although we found out this weekend

183
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 2: just why Rory McElroy has not been playing his best

184
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 2: golf lately, and that is because his wife, Erica is

185
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 2: due with their first child quote unquote any day now.

186
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 2: So we're gonna get into that when we talk about

187
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 2: this week's tour championship and how that may affect some

188
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 2: of the things that we're looking at. We've got it

189
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 2: by the way, a very special guest coming up with

190
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 2: us in just a few minutes. You're gonna love what

191
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 2: he has to say and what he's doing because he's

192
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 2: becoming a popular dude out there within golf social media circles.

193
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:42,839
Speaker 2: So just kind of finishing up the BMW Championship pete

194
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 2: for every sort of inundation that we've got with all

195
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 2: the FedEx Cup references throughout the weekend, and there were

196
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 2: way too many of them. And I get PJ Toys

197
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 2: a partner of ours. I love the PJ Tour. We

198
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 2: were a little flooded with Hey, where's the projection, who's

199
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 2: gonna beware what's going on? And so there's a little

200
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 2: too much of that. You know what, it was all

201
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 2: worth it when we got to see that up and

202
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 2: down from Mackenzie Hughes on eighteen, which was not only

203
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,319
Speaker 2: a great up and down by him, but the culmination

204
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 2: of a really good story where this is a guy

205
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 2: who was struggling with his game late last year and

206
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,599
Speaker 2: early this year, missed a whole bunch of cuts and

207
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, it's a guy who's down in

208
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 2: the tour championship. And as you told me before, we

209
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 2: started the pod. This can lead to some really good

210
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 2: things for him this year.

211
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, so cool. And I echo what you said about

212
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 3: where golf is. I mean, I've never loved the PGA

213
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 3: Tour and just professional golf more than I do. Now.

214
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:39,079
Speaker 3: It's in a great place. It's gating popularity. Obviously, COVID

215
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 3: and the world with Evan's been challenging, but one huge

216
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 3: benefit is more people are playing golf, where people are

217
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 3: watching golf. And you know, both of us are avid

218
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 3: golf fans and love to play it and love to

219
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 3: watch it. So that's great. And Mackenzie Hughes what a story.

220
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 3: I mean, I agree with you. It's kind of annoying

221
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 3: to just constantly see how the FedEx stuff's moving. And

222
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 3: I get it, it's so consequential for these players. I mean,

223
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 3: there's just so much money on the line of the

224
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 3: tour championship and all the exemptions. And to see McKenzie

225
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 3: Hughes get up and down and his reaction, I mean

226
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 3: it was it was awesome. I mean I was genuinely

227
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 3: really really happy for him. And like we were talking

228
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 3: about before, I don't know the exact dollar amount for

229
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 3: people throw out figures like four to five million dollars.

230
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 3: It's definitely worth millions of dollars to him that he

231
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 3: made that, and like, yeah, these guys are professional golfers

232
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 3: and people you know sometimes don't think about like how

233
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 3: much pressure there is on them, Like, actually, you know,

234
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 3: make a real living out of this, because you know

235
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 3: this better than anyone covering golfer. As long as you

236
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 3: have you can go from being someone to nobody in

237
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 3: professional golf real quick. And if you don't capitalize on it,

238
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:42,439
Speaker 3: that leads to a challenging secondary career. And I don't

239
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 3: know anything about McKenzie Hughes's finances, but just looking at

240
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,199
Speaker 3: his golf career, I know that that was a very

241
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 3: meaningful putt for his family and it's great to see

242
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 3: and that was clutch and rooting for him to do

243
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 3: well at the Tour Championship and going forward.

244
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 2: There are so many stories over the years of basically

245
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 2: just all you need is a ticket and a chair

246
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 2: and a chip and a chair, and these guys have

247
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 2: all seen some sense of that butterfly effect, that domino

248
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 2: theory and whether it's hey, I got into Q School

249
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 2: and I made it through Q School on the number,

250
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 2: and then I won in my first year out and

251
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,200
Speaker 2: I haven't had to go back since or whatever it

252
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 2: might be. I remember Jason Duffner years ago shot at

253
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 2: sixty four I believe on Labor Day in Buston, which

254
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 2: was enough to get him into the Tour Championship a

255
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 2: few weeks later. Well, getting into the Tour Championship got

256
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 2: him into every major the next year. Getting into every

257
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 2: major meant that he played the PGA Championship where he

258
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 2: finished in sixth place, and that got him into the

259
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 2: PGA one year after that, which he won and he

260
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 2: became a major champion. Now was some or all of

261
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 2: that stuff going to happen anyway? Was he going to

262
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 2: become a major champion? Yeah? Maybe, But you know what,

263
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 2: if he never gets the chance, maybe he never finds out.

264
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 2: Maybe he just never gets a chance to show what

265
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 2: he can do in that situation. Maybe if he doesn't

266
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 2: get into the first one, he doesn't win the second

267
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 2: one because he didn't have that experience to back it up. So,

268
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 2: you know, there are a lot of good things that

269
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 2: can come from something like this for a guy like

270
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 2: Mackenzie Hughes, So kudos to him, and kudos to our

271
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 2: our guest that we've got coming up, Peter Sam Harrap.

272
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 2: If I mentioned the name Sam Harrap to you, if

273
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 2: I mentioned that name a month ago, would you have

274
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:25,679
Speaker 2: known who it is? And do you know who it

275
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 2: is right now?

276
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 3: Oh? Of course. I mean I've loved his videos. A

277
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 3: month ago, I had just probably started. I'd seen a

278
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 3: couple of clips, and now I watched all his videos.

279
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 3: I think I tweeted out ebe a week or two

280
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 3: ago that it brought me a genuine joy and yeah,

281
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 3: what a great job he did for us at Golf Back.

282
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 2: And joining us now is Sam Harrap. You might have

283
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 2: heard his work recently. Sam has carved out a nice

284
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:52,839
Speaker 2: little niche for himself doing golf related music videos while

285
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 2: while tickling the ivories on his piano over in England

286
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 2: where he lives. And he's done a fantastic job, and

287
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 2: he did one for us for Golf Bet this week.

288
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:04,719
Speaker 2: We're gonna play it for you at the end. You're

289
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 2: gonna have to listen to the entire podcast if you

290
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,319
Speaker 2: want to hear it. But it's been all over social

291
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 2: media already. Sam does a terrific job. And Sam, welcome

292
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 2: to the podcast. And I guess my first question for

293
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 2: you is how did you get into the golf related

294
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 2: piano music? Mark?

295
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 5: You know, that's a that's a common question, and it's

296
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 5: a weird one because I don't really have an answer.

297
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 5: I mean, I've been playing music for you know, for

298
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 5: a very young age, and uh, you know, I grew

299
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 5: up watching you know, watching the golf, you know, with

300
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 5: my dad and things, and and then I got to

301
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 5: a stage where I guess just one day I thought, well,

302
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 5: you know what, why don't I just put these two

303
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 5: together and see what happens? And I did it the

304
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 5: first first did it back in February when I did

305
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 5: a tony female song. And then yeah, just that one.

306
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 5: I mean it blew me away, the reaction to that one.

307
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 5: I mean I really wasn't expecting anything like it. So

308
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 5: after that one went down so well, I just I

309
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 5: just did another one and that one was well received too,

310
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 5: and then it just kept going and then it just

311
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 5: never hasn't stopped since.

312
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 6: So I just I just keep going until people get bored.

313
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 2: You know what's it been like for you? I mean,

314
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 2: not only getting the reaction from so many people on

315
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 2: social media, but getting a reaction from the people that

316
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 2: you're singing about You mentioned that Tony Fenwe one was

317
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 2: the first one you sang about ben On, and Ben

318
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 2: reacted to you on social media. What's it like to

319
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 2: create something out of nothing, make a song out of

320
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 2: these guys, and then have them reacting to what you're

321
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 2: doing and reacting in a very positive way as well.

322
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 2: You guys love it.

323
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 6: That's the craziest thing really about it.

324
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 5: I think captained straight off the bat with Tony fenw

325
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 5: You know, he responded really well to it. I was

326
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 5: taken aback by that, to be honest, and then then

327
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 5: he took it one step further, you know, not only

328
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 5: you know, sort of saying I love the song, but

329
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 5: but getting his wedging grave with the lyrics. I mean,

330
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 5: that's just didn't expect anything like that at all. So yeah,

331
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 5: that's been the best part of it, I think so far.

332
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 2: Just because you're you're getting so much praise, so many

333
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 2: accolades for everything that you've done. And I mentioned that

334
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 2: we're gonna play this week's version of your Tour Championship

335
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 2: preview that you did for Golf that we'll play at

336
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 2: the end of the podcast here, But you rhyme Bryson

337
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 2: with Bryson this week business is not allowed, are you?

338
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 2: Are you allowed to do that?

339
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 6: Yeah?

340
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 5: I mean it's a good point, but I believe it

341
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 5: was Pitbull who rhymed Coodak with Kodak, So you know,

342
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 5: if he can do it, you know, is.

343
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 2: That the ultimate goal for you and Pitbull to kind

344
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 2: of be on.

345
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 6: That would be quite the collab, wouldn't it any.

346
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 2: Other special you know, special note, special messages from people?

347
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 5: Well, actually there was a message from Delete, singer of

348
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 5: Vario Speedwagon on their page just saying, you know, I

349
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 5: love this, I love this version of our song.

350
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 6: You know, sound did a great job with that. So

351
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 6: that was pretty cool.

352
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 2: Oh that's fantastic. Oh that's really good. What's the hardest

353
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 2: name you've had to try to rhyme so far?

354
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 5: Well, I mean I didn't even attempt to rhyme Xander

355
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 5: Schoffle with anything because that would have that would have

356
00:16:58,440 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 5: been tough.

357
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know if you can get much harder

358
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 6: than that.

359
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 2: Do you actually like him to win this week? Or

360
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:05,400
Speaker 2: did it just work within the lyrics?

361
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,679
Speaker 6: Be honest with me, he has got the best strokes

362
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 6: gained recorder.

363
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 5: He's like, you know, he's not you know, he's not

364
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 5: being firing on all cylinders, I think the last couple

365
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,400
Speaker 5: of weeks. But then you know, maybe the courses haven't

366
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 5: quite suited his game enough. No, So I do think,

367
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 5: you know, he's obviously he's called six shots. He was

368
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 5: a seven six or seven ship shots. Yeah, an think

369
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 5: about your seven. But he's you know, but he can.

370
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 5: I think he could do it.

371
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 6: I do like that.

372
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 2: There aren't enough songs out there that list strokes gained

373
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 2: as part of the main lyrics, So I think there

374
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 2: is something there, Sam. I think we can get into

375
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 2: like some really hard core stats, you know, like proximity

376
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,120
Speaker 2: the whole from one hundred and seventy five to two

377
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 2: hundred yards. I'm not sure what we rhyme that with,

378
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 2: but there's a lot of mainstream musical acts out there

379
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 2: that just aren't getting into that area of golf statistics.

380
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 6: Absolutely.

381
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 5: I maybe we've got so much data disposal now, Jason,

382
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,639
Speaker 5: you know, so you know, why not use it, you know,

383
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 5: But it's a good effect.

384
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 2: All serious, Sam, I love everything you're doing. I thank

385
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 2: you for doing the song for us this week. It's fantastic.

386
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 2: Like I said, we're gonna play it right at the

387
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,639
Speaker 2: end of the podcast, here, but people can find you

388
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,200

390
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,159

391
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 2: some good ideas for you moving forward. It's fun. I'm

392

396
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 6: You know, let's take a fun side of it and

397
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:37,479
Speaker 6: do what we come with it.

398
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,600

00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 2: There are a whole lot of bad things about social

413
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,400
Speaker 2: media these days. Peter sam Harrop is one of the very,

414
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,359
Speaker 2: very good things in our little corner of the world.

415
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 3: Sam is great and just another cool story. I mean,

416
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,400
Speaker 3: he's doing something unique, he's genuinely passionate about it, and

417
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,640
Speaker 3: he's talented. So it's a lot of fun and I'm

418
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 3: excited to see more videos with him down the road.

419
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 2: I gave him a little grief for rhyming Bryson with

420
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 2: Bryson and his latest song for us at golf Bet,

421
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 2: but I will give him some kudos as well because

422
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 2: he Ryan Matsuyama with Rory's Baby drama and that was

423
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 2: just fantastic. So I need to at least point that out.

424
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:59,200
Speaker 2: That was tremendous. So, and he kicked off Our Tour Championship.

425
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 2: We'll get his his song and just a little bit here,

426
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,879
Speaker 2: but he kicked off all that Tour Championship preview. What

427
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,640
Speaker 2: are we thinking Tour Championship, So first, before we even

428
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 2: get to it, we've got to point out once again,

429
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 2: for the second year in a row, they're basically two

430
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: Tour Championships, and you've really got to watch what you're

431
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 2: doing in the books this week because one of them

432
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 2: will be basically handicapped and based on a handicapped scoring system.

433
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 2: Dustin Johnson will come into the event at ten under par,

434
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 2: John Ram eight under, Justin Thomas at seven, Websimpson at six.

435
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 2: On down the list, you are basically picking guys based

436
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 2: on those scores coming in, or you might be in

437
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 2: a book where they're doing it in a more traditional

438
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 2: way and they're just looking at these seventy two hole

439
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 2: scoring without those bonus strokes added in. So I think

440
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,199
Speaker 2: the first thing Peter that people have to look at

441
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 2: this week is just make sure you know what you're

442
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 2: betting on.

443
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's always good advice no matter what you're betting on,

444
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 3: but specifically this week because it's very confusing. Pyrit Princeton's

445
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 3: our sponsor bt MGM. The main futures that they're offering

446
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 3: right now are with bonus strokes not applied for John

447
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 3: Robbs plus five hundred DJs plus by fifty JT plus

448
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 3: nine hundred and none down the board, So I'll be

449
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 3: quoting a lot of those prices. In general, I think

450
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 3: there's probably a little bit more value there. But I

451
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 3: do think you can find some sneaky value potentially on

452
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 3: some of these guys with the strokes applied as well,

453
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,640
Speaker 3: specifically one guy who I kind of like. But yeah,

454
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 3: it's a very interesting week. We have all the best

455
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 3: players in the world. Rory's a dynamic that you know,

456
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 3: I think is worth paying attention to. You know, is

457
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 3: he going to play this tournament? What's going on? Obviously

458
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 3: very happy for him with a future kid on the way,

459
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 3: but it'll be interesting. And you made the best advice

460
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 3: off the bat, know what you're betting.

461
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 2: That's probably a good rule of thumb whenever you're betting

462
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,639
Speaker 2: on anything. So maybe we should repeat that more often.

463
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 2: But yes, certainly this week because it could get a

464
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 2: little confusing. So I mentioned off the top my guy

465
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 2: with those strokes is Web Simpson. I just feel like

466
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 2: it's almost too easy to look at Dustin Johnson or

467
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 2: John Rahm. First of all, they're coming off brutally difficult

468
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 2: week where they played what everyone was terming like a

469
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,919
Speaker 2: major championship with tough conditions and a tough setup and

470
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 2: getting into a playoff, and the physical and mental energy

471
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 2: that they had to exert throughout seventy three holes last week.

472
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 2: I really think can take a toll on them and

473
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 2: they may not be fresh and ready to go this week.

474
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 2: So Web Simpsons guy I'm looking at with the strokes

475
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 2: without him, I'm just rooting for chaos this week, Peter,

476
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 2: and there'd be a delicious irony, maybe not for this guy,

477
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 2: but for everybody else who's been waiting for Abraham Answer

478
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,199
Speaker 2: to win one, because he's certainly got the talent. We

479
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 2: know that he can go out there and win on

480
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 2: the PGA Tour. Wouldn't be something if Abraham Answer plays

481
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 2: seventy two holes in fewer strokes than everybody else this

482
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:48,200
Speaker 2: week and ends the week still with zero PGA Tour wins.

483
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 3: That are you know, Tony, when he had one of

484
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 3: those two guys that there'd be a lot of irony there.

485
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:56,920
Speaker 3: I'm with you. I think the webcall is really good.

486
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 3: I think that's a nice course fit. I really like

487
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,359
Speaker 3: Colin wore Kawa I mentioned before. I think he has

488
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 3: a real chance to win here. He's a young guy,

489
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,400
Speaker 3: which thy helps. I think that coming down the stretch here,

490
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 3: it's been a lot of golf for a lot of

491
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 3: these guys and more. Kawa has, you know, maybe one

492
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 3: of the most stress free games you can have out there,

493
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 3: super consistent, and I think being young definitely helps him.

494
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 3: But of course I like rom you know, he's a

495
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 3: guy that I'm always on and yeah, you get down

496
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 3: to the value and there's not that many guys to

497
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,879
Speaker 3: talk about. But I really like Billy Horschel. Billy Horsechel

498
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 3: played awesome on the weekend and got nothing out of

499
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 3: his round. I mean he was missing put after putt

500
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 3: after putt after putt, So that's something I'm always willing

501
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 3: to buy. And then my biggest piece of advice, I

502
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:38,679
Speaker 3: think I have the most conviction and I don't like

503
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 3: to be negative about players, but we only have twenty

504
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,919
Speaker 3: nine to thirty guys here, depending on what happens. The

505
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 3: one guy you can feel very confident fating, in my opinion,

506
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 3: is Mark Leishman, and the book has threat to go

507
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,479
Speaker 3: after him. But something has gone amiss with Mark Leishman

508
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,640
Speaker 3: and hopefully he can get it figured out. But I'm

509
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 3: not sure he's gonna be able to get it figured

510
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:58,679
Speaker 3: out quickly. He is playing not his best golf. To

511
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 3: put it nicely, here's all I.

512
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 2: Will say about that because I read some quotes from

513
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 2: him after the final round of the BMW. We finished

514
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 2: the week thirty over, and I know everyone's gonna go,

515
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 2: oh my gosh, thirty over. I could have done that. No,

516
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 2: you can get First of all. Secondly, I said, look,

517
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 2: you know, I feel like I found a little something

518
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 2: on Sunday. Am I suggesting at the house on mark Leishman? Nah?

519
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 2: Probably not. But that said, they're gonna be a lot

520
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 2: of very similar and duplicate DFS lineups this week. If

521
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 2: you want to differentiate a little bit, you want to

522
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 2: be a little contrarian, I don't mind a couple of

523
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:37,119
Speaker 2: Mark Leishman plays down in that DFS lineup, just to

524
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 2: be a little bit different than a lot of other people.

525
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,679
Speaker 2: Because I think they're going to going to be a

526
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 2: lot of very similar lineups. You know, you almost can't

527
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,880
Speaker 2: avoid it this week, just because there aren't that many

528
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 2: guys in there. One more player that I want to

529
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 2: mention because I really like him this week and I

530
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,679
Speaker 2: haven't given him enough credit. I have not been on

531
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 2: this guy all summer and proven me wrong. Absolutely.

532
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 3: That's why that might be my night, my next day pay.

533
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:05,960
Speaker 2: It feels like every week we get to a course

534
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 2: where the course is too long, or you know, there's

535
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 2: there's just too many really good players in this field.

536
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 2: I don't like Brendan Todd in weekend, week out. Brendan

537
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 2: Todd has proven me wrong. No, he hasn't won during

538
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 2: this stretch, but he's played terrific golf throughout. He's gotten

539
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 2: unlucky at times. He's had you know, a couple of

540
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 2: bad final rounds when he was in contention. But Brendan

541
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 2: Todd has been really good. He lives in Atlanta, he

542
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 2: should be familiar with this golf course, with this kind

543
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 2: of urf. Playing on Bermuda grass again, I think it's

544
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 2: all set up. He's coming in eleventh on the points list,

545
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 2: coming in eleventh on basically this leaderboard to start. I

546
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 2: love him for top five bets this week. I think

547
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a really nice week for Todd.

548
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,199
Speaker 3: We're on the same page. Just this is good. I

549
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,159
Speaker 3: really like Brendon I actually liked him a little bit

550
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 3: more than the market did last week. And he's playing awesome.

551
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 3: I mean he has a great short game, putted well,

552
00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 3: played well on Sunday, could have easily gotten deep in

553
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 3: par missed a little short put on eighteen for Birdie,

554
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 3: But man, he is playing some golf and what a

555
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,640
Speaker 3: great story. I mean, we talked about McKenzie Hughes. They've

556
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 3: documented a lot on TV talking about kind of you know,

557
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 3: the dumpsies and the driver yips. You know, people get

558
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 3: the putting yips on the PGA Tour, the driver yips.

559
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,919
Speaker 3: I've seen it out there and it's no fun. And

560
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,679
Speaker 3: the fact that he overcame it. I know it's been

561
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 3: talked about a lot, but give big credit to Todd.

562
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 3: He's fifty five to one to win the tournament with

563
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:32,119
Speaker 3: bonus strokes, not a play. I really like that, really

564
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 3: like that. Now top five, these are top five and

565
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 3: top tens again on for our friends at MGM, you

566
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 3: get paid out in full if there's tops, and this

567
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 3: is huge because dead heat rules really eat into your profits.

568
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 3: I think it's you know, personally, I love betting the

569
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 3: markets where TIS pay in full. Obviously they price a

570
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,120
Speaker 3: little bit differently, but still think there's value there. Brendon

571
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 3: Todd is, you know, pretty strong value. He's plus eleven

572
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 3: hundred to be top five. He's starting off in eleventh,

573
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,719
Speaker 3: Like you mentioned, top ten, I mean, you look at

574
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 3: a guy like DJ's minus twenty five hundred, John Rob

575
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,439
Speaker 3: minus twelve fifty, You're looking at some really really heavy

576
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 3: You know, you're laying a lot to win a little

577
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 3: with the top end guys, so it's tough to do that.

578
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 3: But Brendan Todd, I mean, he's right up there plus

579
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 3: one ninety. You're gonna plus money still on Brendan Todd

580
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 3: for top ten, and I think it's a really good

581
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 3: golf course for him. All those odds are at mGy.

582
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:23,880
Speaker 2: By the way, I have a feeling we might mention

583
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 2: Brendan Todd's name one more as we get into our

584
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 2: ultimate DFS lineup, making a six player lineup on DraftKings,

585
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,160
Speaker 2: as we do in every single edition of the Action

586
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 2: Network podcast. And Peter, I want you to take us

587
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 2: through because I'm reading this and I want to make

588
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 2: sure I have it right. But it looks like DraftKings,

589
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 2: which of course is an official betting provider and DFS

590
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 2: provider for the PGA Tour. It looks like they are

591
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 2: using the handicapped scoring system. So guys, we'll start with

592
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 2: those strokes, the staggered scoring, if you will, on the

593
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 2: leader board that the PGA Tour will be using. How

594
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,439
Speaker 2: will that? How can it? How should it affect our

595
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 2: way of thinking going into this thing?

596
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 3: Well, first of all, this is a fun week and

597
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 3: it's it's you know, you have a lot of good

598
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 3: players to fill out with your DFS lineup, but uh,

599
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 3: you know there's only thirty golfers. I certainly think there's

600
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,960
Speaker 3: more skill and uh, you know, a full field, but

601
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 3: it's still fun and there is a nice little rakle

602
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 3: here and Draftings did a great job with the pricing.

603
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 3: So keeping all that in mind, the way you can

604
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,959
Speaker 3: have an edge given that you know most people are

605
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 3: gonna be able to put together a good lineup is

606
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 3: with making sure you're unique by leaving money on the table,

607
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:34,199
Speaker 3: which is more important than ever, seriously more important than

608
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,159
Speaker 3: ever because there's so many combinations of lineups that everyone's

609
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 3: going to have. And then you know, finding some controrian picks.

610
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 3: So your leashman thing. I get that the ball striking

611
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 3: staff are so busimbal that that maybe he did find

612
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 3: something on Sunday and maybe a'll dig deeper into a

613
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 3: Sunday round that something we've been on actually this year

614
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 3: is looking at those Sunday rounds going into the next week.

615
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 3: Part of the reason you're on John Robb last week,

616
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 3: So I'll dig into that. But yeah, finding some guys

617
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 3: down here that might be lower up, like a matter

618
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 3: of munyos or something I think is a pretty sharp play.

619
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 3: But yeah, DJ's fifteen too. You'll never see a golf

620
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 3: of that expense. It's it's fun to make teams this week.

621
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 2: How many touchdowns will Patrick Mahomes have to throw for

622
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 2: this year to get to a fifteen to two.

623
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 3: Pricedag Yeah, it's not gonna end.

624
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not gonna happen. All right, Well, let's kick

625
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 2: it off here. Want to be a DFS millionaire.

626
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 1: You're just one lineup away.

627
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 2: We're gonna go with him, and you're gonna play better

628
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 2: than you ever dreamed of. God damn it, that's what

629
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 2: I have, Marid of you.

630
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 7: So let's get drafting.

631
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 3: Well, I know where you want to go, so I

632
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 3: won't spend. I'll let you spend the most money, but

633
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 3: I'll spend a good bit of our money. Off the battle.

634
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 3: They'll call him more Kowen, who I think has a

635
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 3: lot of upside. I think he can win, and he's

636
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 3: one of the guys I actually like he's highed up

637
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 3: up there that I think he can win the golf tournament.

638
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 3: I think the golf urnament sets up extremely well for him,

639
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 3: and I think he'll be a little lower own. I

640
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 3: think people are going to gravitate towards DJ Robin JT.

641
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 3: I like Marikawa at ten four.

642
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 2: I'm going to say diddo on everything you just said

643
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,719
Speaker 2: and flip it to Web Simpson at perfect in thousand.

644
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 2: Just everything you said about more Cow I think applies

645
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 2: to Web as well.

646
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 3: Perfect All right, Well, I'm gonna go with a guy

647
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 3: we just mentioned, Brendan Todd seventy six hundred. Now we

648
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 3: spend on a good bit of our money, but I

649
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 3: really like this golf course for him. He's playing great.

650
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 3: The only thing he doesn't do well is hit it

651
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 3: a long ways. But when you hit every fairway, that's

652
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 3: a recipe for playing good golf, and Brendan Todd does

653
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 3: that as well as anyone.

654
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go ditto with everything he said for Brendon

655
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 2: Todd and go the guy I mentioned earlier. Abraham answer,

656
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 2: I just feel like, you know, hitting those fairways and greens,

657
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 2: he actually hits a lot long. I feel like Abraham

658
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:46,959
Speaker 2: Answer gets short changed. And I mean that literally because

659
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,640
Speaker 2: he's about my height. He's like five to seven, and

660
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 2: so you look at him and say, oh, he's a

661
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 2: short hitter. He must be really accurate, and it's like,

662
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 2: actually it's a long way. It's just not a big dude.

663
00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 2: But in any case, Abraham Answer is a a terrific

664
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 2: elite ball striker. And I'm throwing him in at only

665
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 2: sixty one hundred, which I like that.

666
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 3: Price, love that price. I'm going Billy Horssell with the

667
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 3: next week, leaving you some money. I think Billy Horssell

668
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 3: is a really strong play. This week has been playing

669
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 3: great almost one a couple of weeks ago. Ball striking

670
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 3: stats are right there. Just comes down to the putter

671
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 3: and he gets second. You know, could have easily won

672
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 3: when he putted well, and you know he puts well

673
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 3: this week. I think he'll he'll be right there. All right.

674
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 2: He's at fifty seven hundred. We've got ninety two hundred left.

675
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 2: And boy, I gotta tell you, if I didn't know better,

676
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 2: I would just sit there and look at the guy

677
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 2: on top and go Daniel Berger. I mean it's perfect,

678
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 2: like it's a good golf course for him, he's playing well,

679
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 2: it just makes sense. But then we're only leaving one

680
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 2: hundred on the table, and so all right, well let's

681
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 2: go a little bit further down. Well, the next guy

682
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 2: down Xander Schoffley. I love Xander Schoffley. Xander Shoffley has

683
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 2: played this event three times. He's finished first, second, and seventh.

684
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 2: That's some really strong stuff from Xander at this golf tournament.

685
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 2: But he's eighty nine hundre and then we're only leaving

686
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 2: three hundred.

687
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 3: I already know where you're going, so I think, and

688
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 3: I think you're going to the right place. I know

689
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 3: where you're going.

690
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 2: Okay, No, I'm sober English. I'm skipping over Patrick Red.

691
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 2: I think that's where you thought I was going there

692
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 2: for sure.

693
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 3: Now, okay, if.

694
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 2: A really strong Sunday round at the BMW, maybe something

695
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 2: clicked for him. I this a little bit of a

696
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 2: personal one. A couple of years ago, when Tony played

697
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 2: the Tour Championship for the first time, I wrote a

698
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 2: big story on him. I walked with him and his coach,

699
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 2: Boyd Summer Hayes, and actually spent about eighteen holes walking

700
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 2: with his dad as well. His dad is this britt big,

701
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 2: gregarious guy who's just a blest to hang out with.

702
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 2: And so uh, me and mister f Now Gary, we

703
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 2: we're hanging out at east Lake, and still to this day,

704
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 2: every time I see him, gives me a big sort

705
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 2: of bro Hugue handshake and you know, we uh we

706
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 2: talk a little bit and catch up. He's such a

707
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 2: nice guy and so uh based partially on the fact

708
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 2: that he played really well on Sunday and partially on

709
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 2: the fact that I've just got good memories of Tony

710
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 2: f Now at East Lake, and I just always thought that,

711
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 2: you know, someday this is gonna work really well for him.

712
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 2: Someday he's gonna do something really good here. So at

713
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 2: eighty two hundred, we can leave a thousand on the

714
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 2: table by taking Tony fen Now, and I'm gonna do it.

715
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 2: What do you think of that?

716
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 3: Love leaving a thousand on the table. And we've been

717
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 3: buying a guy who plays well on Sunday And obviously

718
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 3: John Rahm played you know, try to bog three six hunder,

719
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 3: but Tony fw I mean if you watch that round,

720
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 3: he was all over the flagstick, including on eighteen. I mean,

721
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 3: he made eighteen, which was playing so difficult, looks like

722
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 3: a joke. He just drives it a mile down there,

723
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 3: lost a little wedge or nine nine, not exactly what

724
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 3: he hit two feat seven inches, I mean taps it

725
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:41,959
Speaker 3: in and you know he could have gotten more out

726
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 3: of that round too. His putter has been the one

727
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 3: kind of shaky part of his game. But if he's

728
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 3: on with his putter is above average. His ball striking

729
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 3: and distance. I mean, he's an amazing player.

730
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 2: I think that's a good squad. I really like that,

731
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 2: and I think that's a good example of what you

732
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 2: need to do this week. Even if even if you're saying, hey,

733
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 2: I really Dustin Johnson are real like John Ram, That's fine.

734
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 2: You can throw those guys in there, but make sure

735
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 2: you're leaving some money on the table, make sure you're differentiating,

736
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,280
Speaker 2: make sure you're taking a couple of guys that won't

737
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 2: necessarily be highly owned based on the fact that you know,

738
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 2: maybe they're a little bit further back on this opening leaderboard. So, Peter,

739
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:21,400
Speaker 2: final thoughts before we get to Sam's preview song for

740
