Nobody cares how 15 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 2: a pro am competitor play is in the program. So 16 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 2: just you played really well in the front. I came 17 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 2: out at the turn, and then all of a sudden 18 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 2: you started playing poorly, and I take the full blame. 19 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 2: It was on me. 20 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 1: You're too kind of a podcast host here. For me, 21 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 1: it was super fun and I'll get into it. The 22 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: pairings dinner was great. Tiger gave some fun words and 23 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: you know, you had a bunch of people there. I 24 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: thought it was really well done. You know, people were 25 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 1: sweating who they're gonna get paired with, and I obviously 26 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: knew who I was getting paired with coming in and 27 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: to see the group with Conda, Lisa Rice or doctor Rice, 28 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: i should say, and mister Jung pretty pretty ridiculous. The 29 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: guy sitting at our table with Ashley and I actually 30 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: were like, who the hell is this Peter Jennings guy. 31 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: And my wife goes, oh, he's a real dick, and 32 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: they're like really like, oh no, he's my husband. He's 33 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: sitting right there. So that was fun, and that's when 34 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: you know, obviously I was getting really nervous. And the 35 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: hardest part about the whole thing for me is we 36 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: got delayed like five hours coming in from Denver Monday night, 37 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: so I got very little sleep Tuesday, and then of 38 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: course Tiger teas off first on Wednesday morning, so we 39 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: teed off at six forty. I didn't sleep like at 40 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: all the night before and I get there to Pitch Black. 41 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: So have you done any of those pairings dinners? Have 42 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: you been at those events before? 43 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 2: No, I've not played in proram, I've not gotten the invite. 44 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 2: In fact, I've probably had blackballed. 45 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: For more prorams. 46 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 2: So I've got invited no media ever at these uh, 47 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 2: these pairingsers now they want nothing to do with me, 48 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: trust me, So you're stop. Yeah, your wife told me 49 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: that you got no sleep on Tuesday night going into Wednesday, 50 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 2: which I probably knew already, but it was good to 51 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 2: get the confirmation. I will say this much. If someone 52 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 2: said to you, hey, you're gonna play with an executive 53 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 2: from Genesis guys a big deal, you'd be like, all right, oh, 54 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 2: I'm I'm a little nervous about that. You know, this guy, 55 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 2: I gotta impress the sky a little. 56 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: Bit, they said. 57 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 2: Then someone said, oh, and by the way, Condolieza Rice 58 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 2: is in this forceman as well. You go, oh my god, 59 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 2: Like I now, I'm like really I was a little nervous. 60 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 2: Now I'm like really nervous, Like this is a big deal. 61 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 2: I'm playing with Condilieza Rice. And then someone said, oh, oh, 62 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 2: and just one other thing, one of these like little 63 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 2: small detail. Well then we just want to go, by 64 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 2: the way, Tiger Woods is also playing in the forestom 65 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, and that's I totally get where you're 66 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 2: coming from. You played great on the front. You didn't 67 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 2: play so well in the back, but dude, there are 68 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 2: people out there who are good golfers who wouldn't have 69 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 2: gotten the ball airborne the entire day, So kudos to yeah. 70 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: And honestly, it was just funny that the most nervous 71 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: I was, for sure was the first t which you know, 72 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: it's a beautiful setting, the sun's rising, and you know 73 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: you're at the top there at riv going into that 74 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: par five, and you know, everyone hit a great T 75 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: shot off the bat, all right, mister Chung, and Tiger did. 76 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: I had a pretty good g shot, probably like a 77 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: six out of ten, started in the middle of the fairway, 78 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: just drew over to the left rough, but I at 79 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: least hit it solid, got it in the air. And 80 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: then the most nerve racking shot relative well, I'd say 81 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: one of the two or three most nerve racking shots 82 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: is the next one, because I had no idea what 83 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: to expect in terms of just like the pace of 84 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: play and what you're doing. And Tiger and then Tiger 85 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: striped his He's at the very end of the fairway, 86 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: so I'm left and he's like whatever, thirty yards in 87 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: front of me in the middle of the fairway and 88 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: his whole entourage is just standing there, and of course 89 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: I'm trying to hit that same area like I'm trying to, 90 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: you know, hit. I had a five wooden hand. I 91 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: was just gonna like lay up to like a you know, 92 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 1: a pitch shot, and where I wanted to go was 93 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: right over Tiger with a wooden hand. So of course 94 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: I I, you know, we like yell at them, nothing happens, 95 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 1: and I just hit, and of course I yank it left. 96 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: Actually had a good punch shot out of the trees 97 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: and almost made par, but made a bogie on one. 98 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: And then from there the fun part was I made 99 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 1: six pars in the next eight holes, and you know, 100 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: they're doing the best ball format, and I literally was 101 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: like carrying the team. It was great. I was like 102 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 1: piping drives. I had a great four iron into two 103 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 1: when it was cold, had another really good four iron 104 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: into nine, which two and nine are definitely two of 105 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: the harder holes in the course. And I was feeling great. 106 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: Joey was giving reads Tiger. Actually, so my best pictures 107 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: are with Tiger giving me reads on Potzy. He helped 108 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 1: me on putts for like four of the first five 109 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: or six holes, which is great. 110 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 2: Are you sure that was good? Because I saw the 111 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 2: tiger pudnet the four days afterwards. 112 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, maybe the reads didn't didn't help me as much. 113 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: But no, he was great. I mean most of them were, like, 114 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 1: you know, they're tricky putts out there. 115 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 2: And he used up all his good ones. 116 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: Dude, he did use up. He didn't cut well when 117 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: we were together, but he hit the ball really really well, 118 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: and he obviously started great. But yeah, just to finalize 119 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: all this stuff, it was super fun turned poorly even 120 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: got one of the luckiest shots I've ever had. I've 121 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: played River a couple of times. On twelve, I get 122 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: the ball to bounce off the tree, my only par 123 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: on the back, I get just the luckiest bounce off 124 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: the tree onto the green. Yeah. Then it just snowballs 125 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: from there. And you know, I've played a lot of 126 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: golf the summer. I got solid again, but I've had 127 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: the shank demon for a while, and unfortunately it happened 128 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: on sixteen, Which that was hilarious. That video I can 129 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: laugh about it now. That was just all time So 130 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: it was super funny, and yeah, I feel a lot 131 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: better now about the whole experience. Than when I was 132 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: just finishing, because it was obviously frustrating to play poorly 133 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: at the end, But you're so right. Uh, it's all 134 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: about the experience. And almost got onto Augusta with doctor Rice. 135 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: Think if I would have just played a little bit 136 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: better on the back. She was wearing a nice Augusta 137 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: vest and Steve my caddy is I played tennis and 138 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: Notre Dame and she was actually out here at du 139 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: which is where Steve's wife is the tennis coach. So 140 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: a lot of commonalities with doctor Rice, which was really fun. 141 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 2: That's awesome. I can't believe you didn't work the Augusta 142 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 2: in I tried. 143 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: I was starting to end towards it and then just 144 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 1: the wheels fell off a little bit. But I should have. 145 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: I should have pushed a little bit harder. And it 146 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: was a great group. Tiger was so nice, and I 147 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: really like Joey. I thought he was dude and he 148 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: loves you know, all the actions, so it was fun 149 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: to hear him talk about it, and just the whole 150 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: event itself I thought was a plus. And uh yeah, 151 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: in terms of the event, I watched all of Sunday. 152 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: We had some big sweats in DFS, right, some big 153 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: sweats in DFS, and I was happy to see Adam 154 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 1: scott Win is rooting for Varner with a bias. But 155 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 1: what did you think of the overall tournament? All right, 156 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: so a few things. 157 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 2: First of all, I thought mister Chung was going to 158 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 2: be a solid investor in the Action Network by the 159 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 2: time you guys were done with eighteen holes, and by 160 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 2: the way, that could. 161 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: Play a little bit. 162 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 2: Secondly, for those who want to go on social media 163 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 2: and like make fun and say, oh, Peter in a 164 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 2: bad shut out here. 165 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: That. 166 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 2: Go to pro am And by the way, you have 167 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 2: not played these things before, where like you're supposed to 168 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 2: work your way up in the program and you play 169 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: with like a guy that just jumped into the pro am, 170 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 2: and then you play with like, okay, guy who's a 171 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 2: little bit better. They play with the guy and you 172 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 2: work your way up to Tiger. You don't start with 173 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 2: Tiger and then go from there. So it's a really 174 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 2: difficult proposition. And the other part of that is I 175 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 2: have absolutely no idea and I've walked a thousand pro 176 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 2: ams in my life and talked to players and not 177 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 2: really paid attention to what was going on. In the 178 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 2: rest of the group because I don't care. But I 179 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 2: cared on Wednesday last week and I was paying attention. 180 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 2: I have no idea how you guys were scoring this thing, 181 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 2: because there were balls being hit everywhere. I mean, there 182 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 2: was just it's just kind of do your thing, get 183 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 2: the ball up there, don't get in Tiger's way, and 184 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 2: everyone try to make a par. And I don't know 185 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 2: how you guys actually came up with a final score 186 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 2: for this entire thing. But Tiger, Tiger said that he's 187 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 2: never won a pro am before. I call BS on 188 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 2: that because I think that he plays in the programs 189 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 2: at six thirty in the morning and leaves and just 190 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 2: doesn't know that if his team won or not. But 191 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 2: that said, I could see Tiger playing in a program 192 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 2: group that never. 193 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: Wins because there's just way too much going on. 194 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 2: I mean, if this is not a normal round of golf, 195 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,199 Speaker 2: there's no way to prepare for. I'm playing with Tiger 196 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 2: and Conna, Liza and mister Chung from Genesis, and like, yeah, 197 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 2: it's just a normal Like there's there's nine hundred people 198 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 2: out there walking with you. Guys. You had you had 199 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 2: a guy, you had a fan out there. You said, 200 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 2: you didn't know this guy was yelling, come on, Peter, 201 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 2: let's go Peter, like every time you like step, I 202 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 2: have no idea what that guy was doing, but that 203 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 2: I just kudos to everything you did and you were 204 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 2: able to keep together out there. Okay, so you hit 205 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 2: some bad shots who cares. 206 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: No' remember that? Yeah? No, it was fun. And Tiger 207 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,079 Speaker 1: definitely he thought that was a lot of our interactions 208 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: about the Heckler. He thought that was hilarious, and uh, yeah, 209 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: I mean it was cool. It was fun to hear 210 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: him talk. We did to get to talk about the predictions, 211 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: and uh, he was interested to see where we had him, 212 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 1: and I like our model and stuff. So it was 213 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: great him way down there, the way down, not way down. 214 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 1: I didn't tell him I had him way down. I said, 215 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: you're you're right there with Brooks, you know, I had 216 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: him eighth overall. So, I mean it was fun and 217 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: I and I did say that he's and he he 218 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: agreed with this. I said, you and Brooks actually are 219 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 1: the hardest guys to predict, because it Brooks with the 220 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 1: major angle, but with you, it's harder to predict just 221 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: because your your health and how often you're playing, and 222 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: I thought he was gonna play really well coming into 223 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: this week, a lot of good signs and he did 224 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: really strike the ball well. I know he ended up 225 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: having a really bad weekend, but he just has never 226 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: been able to put at Riviera, which makes so much sense. 227 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: I mean, those creams are ridiculous. 228 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 2: I had him to win last week just on a lark, 229 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 2: just thinking, Hey, lots of cool narratives going back to 230 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 2: la He's never done it. He's motivated and he's inspired, 231 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 2: and the Kobe narrative, and I just and he finished 232 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,839 Speaker 2: DFL of all those that made the cut, and I'm 233 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 2: willing to take full blame for that. I don't think 234 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 2: that was Tiger. I think that was me. 235 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: Wow, you're for everyone. Yeah, it's what a good guy 236 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: you are. 237 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're Your back nine was on me. Tiger's full 238 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 2: four rounds were on me. I'm just eating everybody's failures 239 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 2: and just taking him on myself. 240 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: What a gentleman you are. I think I rubbed up 241 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: on Tiger. He started off white hot and then finished 242 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: about as bad as you can, so very similar to me. 243 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 1: He was great and the whole experience was awesome thanks 244 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: to the Tiger Woods Foundation, and for all of you 245 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: out there, it's definitely you know, obviously playing with Tigers 246 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: a ridiculous experience, but just getting out to those programs, 247 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 1: if we ever do, I think it's definitely worthwhile and 248 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: just a really really cool experience, especially being at these courses. 249 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: And I think the Genesis Invitational is going to be 250 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: a big thing going forward. I mean, it was incredible 251 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: to see the field that they drew, and you know, 252 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: so many of the golfers were talking about as one 253 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 1: of their favorite, if not their favorite course on tour. 254 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: So I was really pleased and it's gonna be fun 255 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: to watch this event going forward. And you know, the 256 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: one thing I do take away, I mean Adam Scott 257 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,959 Speaker 1: his ball striking's back. And obviously he's always been a 258 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 1: really good ball striker, but it seems like that elite 259 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: level ball striking is there, and he's certainly interesting. What 260 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: do you think about him at the Masters and going forward? 261 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm starting to think about him at the Masters 262 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 2: a little bit, and I think a lot of other 263 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: people are as well. There's definitely a connection, a correlation 264 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 2: between Riviera and Augusta National, and a lot of that 265 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 2: comes from the two lefties. A lot of that comes 266 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 2: from Phil Micholson and Bubba Watson, who have combined for 267 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 2: victories in the last what twelve fifteen years at Riviera 268 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 2: and five victories at Augusta National. So there's definitely a 269 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 2: correlation there. I can certainly see Adam Scott playing really 270 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 2: good golf at the Masters this year, and traditionally, the 271 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 2: guys we see at Augusta National playing well are the 272 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 2: guys that have at some point played well over the 273 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 2: first three months of the season leading into the second 274 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 2: week of April. And so Adam Scott is a guy 275 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 2: that's firmly placed himself in the radar at least if 276 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 2: nothing else. And so yeah, I think Adam will play well. 277 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,719 Speaker 2: And I loved everything about last week. It's one of 278 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 2: the greatest courses on the PGA Tour. The weather was fantastic, 279 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 2: the field was great. The leader board on Sunday at 280 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 2: times looked like everyone wanted to win this golf tournament. 281 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 2: At times looked like nobody wanted to win this golf tournament. 282 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 2: Adam Scott sort of outlasted everybody other than the traffic. 283 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 2: I had a fantastic week. They get they gotta do 284 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 2: something about that. One word for you, Genesis Invitational folks, 285 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 2: jet packs. Once we get the jet packs going, that's 286 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 2: going to be a destination spot for everybody on the 287 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 2: PGA tour, because if you can get around everybody, you'll 288 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 2: be fine. 289 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: It's just the traffic, man, All the traffic is beyond devastating. 290 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: It took me two hours to get from Riviera Country 291 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: Cup to Burbank Airport one time, and you were heading 292 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: into it. I mean it is La. The weather is amazing. 293 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: There's a lot of enticing aspects, but the traffic is 294 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: like one of the top things that tilts me. 295 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 2: CBS struggle a little bit on the weekend. 296 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: Peter Winn show more golfers like especially if the deal 297 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,960 Speaker 1: is that type pactic we were getting nothing at the end, 298 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 1: and show you other players. 299 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 2: I get it. Look, I always go back to before 300 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 2: I got married. A good friend of mine said, gave 301 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 2: me some advice and said, do you plan on speaking 302 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 2: with everybody who comes to your wedding? I said, yeah, 303 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 2: of course, at the least I can do. Of course, 304 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: I'll go to talk to everyone. Well how long are 305 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 2: you going to talk to them? 306 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: I said, I don't know. 307 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 2: Like five minutes. You know, go so speak to everyone 308 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 2: for five minutes. That's you know, they're coming to my wedding. 309 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 2: They're giving me a gift and my wife. 310 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: Of course I'll do that. 311 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 2: They said, okay, well, how many guests are coming? I 312 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 2: said one hundred and eighty. You know, it's not a 313 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 2: huge wedding. And my friend said, okay. 314 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: Do the math. 315 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 2: And if you do the math, it's like, well you 316 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 2: better have a like fifteen hour wedding because you can't 317 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 2: actually do that. And so I always try to give 318 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 2: the benefit of the doubt too, whether it's CBS or 319 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 2: any other broadcast network, because it's really hard to get 320 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 2: all of those guys in. When you have a tight 321 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 2: packed leaderboard like that, you're not going to see every shot. 322 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 2: That said, when a guy who's co leading the tournament 323 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 2: steps onto the tea at one of the most iconic 324 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 2: holes on the entire PGA tour and cold tops of 325 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 2: three wood one hundred and twenty nine yards probably see that. CBS. 326 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 2: I hate criticizing other media outlets because it either A 327 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 2: looks like sour grapes or B looks like, hey, we 328 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 2: could have done it better. Look we're at the Action Network. 329 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 2: We don't do that. I've worked for a couple other 330 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 2: places that are in that business, and it would have 331 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 2: sounded like, hey, we would have done it better than you, 332 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 2: and it sounds like, you know, just it doesn't feel 333 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 2: right when you're doing it for those places. Look, we're 334 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 2: not in the business of broadcasting PGA tour events, so 335 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 2: I can say right now, man, CBS, you've got to 336 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 2: show that stuff. That's a huge swing and a miss. 337 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 2: And maybe twenty years ago that worked. Twenty years ago, 338 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 2: people aren't on Twitter and on social media. They're not 339 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 2: looking at shot tracker. They don't understand what's going on 340 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 2: as much as they do these days. These days, everyone 341 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 2: knows exactly what happens the second it happens, and they 342 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 2: want to see it, and you don't show it to them, 343 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 2: it looks like A you're just missing the boat and 344 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 2: you're not paying attention, or B you're trying to protect 345 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 2: the players and not showing a guy who's in the 346 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 2: lead hit a really bad golf shot. Either one of 347 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 2: those they a bad option to have. 348 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was then new Varner whoy I needed desperately 349 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: ten played ridiculously tough on Sunday with that back right pin, 350 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: they just couldn't hold the green with how firm and 351 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: fast they were, and that was the undoing of Varner. 352 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: Then Bogiet eleven, which was one of the easiest holes 353 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: and definitely a spot where you can big birdie when 354 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: the back was playing extraordinarily tough. It was a really 355 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: interesting tournament. I think you can look to Scott and 356 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 1: I'm a big believer in Rory is by far the 357 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: best player in the world. And with that, I mean 358 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: Rory is basically in that five to six to one 359 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: range this week. I think you got to figure out 360 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: a way to get Rory in your DFS lineups. He's 361 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: my top play. I mean, it's easy to say that, 362 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: but I really really love some Rory, and I think 363 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: Rory to me right now is like approaching some of 364 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: the most elite golf that we've ever seen. I mean, 365 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: obviously there's Tiger in the two thousands, but Rory is 366 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 1: like just a top five, top ten machine every single 367 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: time he tease it up, and the betting markets are 368 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: starting to give him lotteries back. So what are your 369 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: thoughts on the WWGC Mexico Championship. Are you as high 370 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 1: on Rory as I am, and who else are you 371 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: liking for this tournament? 372 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,880 Speaker 2: I am so I picked in my column this week, 373 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 2: I picked Rory McClory to win this golf tournament. Now, 374 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,239 Speaker 2: I think what people have to realize, which is really 375 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 2: hard to explain in a column, but you can explain 376 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 2: it better on a podcast, is that picking a guy 377 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 2: to win and betting on a guy to win are 378 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:29,199 Speaker 2: two completely different things. I picked Rory mclory. He's the 379 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 2: favorite this week. I really like him. At five to 380 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 2: one in a seventy two man field, I'm not really 381 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,360 Speaker 2: sure I can get behind Rory. I'm just not I'm 382 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 2: not sure I have the capital to make that investment 383 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 2: where I say, okay, look at five to one, I'm 384 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 2: would do really well on this if Rory wins. I'm 385 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 2: not that sold on him, but I'm very sold on 386 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 2: him and Peter. I've got a couple of really good reasons. 387 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 2: First of all, I know what he did on Sunday, 388 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 2: playing in the final group, going into Sunday looking really good, 389 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 2: then winds up shooting I believe it was the seventy 390 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 2: four and finished the share of fifth place. And I 391 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 2: know a lot of people will say I'm off Rory 392 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 2: after that. Last year, Peter Rory won four tournaments worldwide. 393 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 2: In each of those four events, he had some modicum 394 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 2: of failure of the week before, anywhere from a third 395 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 2: place finish to a miscut. And I say the week before, 396 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 2: not the start before, because all four of those wins 397 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 2: last year that Rory had came on the second week 398 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,479 Speaker 2: of a back to back stretch. In fact, eight of 399 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 2: Rory's last ten wins worldwide were the second of two 400 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 2: weeks that he was playing. You talk about getting momentum, 401 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 2: you talk about getting your bearings, you talk about kind 402 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 2: of like working your way into playing good golf. There 403 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 2: is a specific pattern and a trend for Rory Backlory 404 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 2: right now, and what we see is that the first 405 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 2: of those weeks, Yeah, he can contend. He can contend 406 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,640 Speaker 2: any week. I mean, the guy's that good, but it's 407 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 2: the second week. If he plays two weeks in a row, 408 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 2: the second week, more often than not he plays really, 409 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 2: really well. 410 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 1: And he played well on Sunday too. I mean, I 411 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: know he shot a bad score. He had an awful 412 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: triple bogie where he just got too aggressive with a 413 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 1: pen and was in a really bad spot where both 414 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: Adams got made double. He made triple, say both had 415 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 1: chips come back to them and then Roy three putted, 416 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,719 Speaker 1: but after that he proceeded to miss like four or 417 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: five like ten footers or shorter within like a six 418 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: or seven hole stretch. I mean, the guy is just 419 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: piping the ball and putting it close to pins all 420 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: day long, and just he couldn't put on Sunday. And yeah, 421 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: I love hearing all that data. I think it's a 422 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: really really good spot for Rory, but he's obviously the favorite, 423 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: So what else do you like? And I think there's 424 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: some interesting spots. And it's obviously a tough week in 425 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: DFS no cut, and we had a smaller field, so. 426 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 2: I always feel like I have a little bit of 427 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 2: an edge coming off a week where I covered the 428 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 2: tournament so didn't talk to Xanderschoffle at all. But Sander, 429 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: we all know he plays better in smaller field events, 430 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,160 Speaker 2: and that's what we have this week, seventy two players. 431 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 2: Three of his four wins have come in shortened fields, 432 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 2: and I expect Xander, who hit the ball very well, 433 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 2: didn't putt great, but hit the ball well. On the weekend, 434 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 2: I expect Xander to be up there. I did speak 435 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 2: with Bryson d Chambeau after his final round, and Bryson's 436 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 2: got the irons dialed in, and more specifically, he's got 437 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 2: the wedges and the putter dialed in. Right now. He's 438 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 2: really confident with where he's going. I think we are 439 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 2: on the verge, and maybe we've hit that verge, whatever 440 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 2: that verge is, because he did finish in the top 441 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 2: five this past week. But we're on the verge of 442 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 2: Bryson d Chambeau playing like next level golf. I really 443 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 2: think he's going to at some point in the very 444 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 2: very near future just take over and play really, really well, 445 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 2: and I think it could start this week. We've seen 446 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 2: big hitters, big names in the past. Dustin Johnson has 447 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 2: won this event twice since it's moved to Mexico. In 448 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 2: those three years, Phil Nicholson the other win, big hitters, 449 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 2: big names, and I think that continues. Rory, Xander, Bryson, 450 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 2: those are the guys on my list. I've seen a 451 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,719 Speaker 2: lot of Tommy Fleetwood out there. I don't disagree with that. 452 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 2: I've seen a lot of Paul Casey, I've seen a 453 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 2: lot of Matt Fitzpatrick. I do like him this week. 454 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,199 Speaker 2: So those are some of the names, but I think 455 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 2: you're gonna have to do deeper, especially if you're making 456 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 2: DFS lineups. They're a handful of guys just sort of 457 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 2: off the radar screen a little bit who I think 458 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 2: can help and differentiate your lineups a little bit. 459 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 1: This week, well, you took two guys in line to 460 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: talk about staying at our hotel in LA was Bryson 461 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,239 Speaker 1: Dechambau's parents very very nice, And I agree with you 462 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: and Bryce. I know he's getting a lot of praise 463 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 1: and criticism. The bulking up is a polarizing topic pace 464 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 1: of play. Obviously people are on him, but I love 465 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: what he's doing in social media, and you know, I 466 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: think he's trying to be authentic, which he is who 467 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: he is, and I know some people would argue that 468 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,719 Speaker 1: that's not what he's doing, but I truly believe he 469 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: loves to nerd out about golf and I love that 470 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 1: he's showing that. And you know, I was heavy on 471 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: him last week. I ended up really liking d Chambone. 472 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: I think he's a really, really strong player. This week, 473 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: his strokes gain approach is starting to look very strong, 474 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: as you pointed out, with the iron and web game, 475 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 1: and if he can put well, I mean he is 476 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 1: extremely long and just a really talented player, and he's 477 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: steamed in the market so far. So I like the 478 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 1: Bryson call quite a bit. Xander has had the most 479 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: line movement as we record this year on Tuesday night 480 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 1: of any golf in the field. Started off as like 481 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 1: the ninth favorite in the field. Now he's all the 482 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 1: way up to a number four ahead of Webb Simpson. 483 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: He's sixteen seventeen to one range and really steamed in matchups. 484 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: So I think that's a really really sharp call, you know. 485 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: I hate to being the same drum. I'm probably gonna 486 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 1: short Jordan's speed. He's still losing strokes off the tee 487 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 1: and we'll see if that ever can come around. I 488 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 1: hope it does. For the Masters, I'm rooting for Jordan, 489 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: but still going to be shorting him. So there's a 490 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: couple of matchups out there you want to go down 491 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: that route. And then one other guy that I think 492 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: is worth mentioning that I think might go a little 493 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 1: under owned, and I've also seen some positive movement in 494 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 1: the markets is Louis who's tasting. I think this is 495 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: a good course for Louie. Yeah, and I could see 496 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: him playing well. Obviously he wants to gear up for 497 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: the Masters, but I think this is a pretty good 498 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 1: spot for him. What are your thoughts on Louie. 499 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 2: Louis one of those guys that I never play. I 500 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 2: could go back over my DFS lineups over the last 501 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 2: five years and probably count on one hand the amount 502 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 2: of times that I played Louis house days, and then 503 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 2: some because I don't like the guy. It's some because 504 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 2: I don't trust the guy's I don't know. It's just 505 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 2: there are very few events where I say this is 506 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 2: Louis week. I love Louis. This week it just kind 507 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 2: of I either like him or don't like him and 508 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 2: never love him, so I just I can see it 509 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 2: though this week, I'm kind of on board with it. 510 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 2: This week, I think, Peter, if you're looking at guys 511 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 2: like we said, Rory, you're looking at Prison, You're looking 512 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 2: at Xander, Okay, well those are three very expensive players, 513 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 2: then you have to start looking the other side of things, 514 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 2: and I start looking at guys like Christian his widen height. 515 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 2: It's a tough one to say it's terrible for a podcast, 516 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 2: but the guy won last week on a co sanctioned 517 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 2: Sunshine Tour Challenge Tour event. This guy's really good. Victor 518 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 2: Perez is actually more expensive in dfs. I thought he 519 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 2: was gonna be I thought he could slide in there. 520 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 2: He was t four in his first WGC event in 521 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 2: China late last year. I thought he could slide in 522 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 2: there and be a cheap options and really not that cheap. 523 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 2: But I like Victor Perez the Frenchman to play really well. 524 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,400 Speaker 2: And if you go further down the list, I don't 525 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 2: know what. Matt Wallace has not played great golf this 526 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 2: year and again another sort of off the PGA tour 527 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 2: path kind of guy. But Matt Wallace has not played great, 528 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 2: but he's shown in the past that he can turn 529 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 2: things on at the flip of a switch. And Matt Wallace, 530 00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 2: especially on FanDuel more than DraftKings. He is unbelievable cheap 531 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 2: this week. And if you can get a lineup where 532 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 2: you say, hey, look, I just got to fill it 533 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 2: with some autumn the lineup type guy who's really cheap 534 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 2: at the bottom end, Matt Wallace is much better than 535 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 2: some of the players who are listed above him this week. 536 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, I totally agree with that. You know someone that 537 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 1: we don't see as much on the PGA tour, but 538 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 1: it's done extremely on the European tour. I think that's 539 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 1: a really sharp call. Let's make a lineup for the WGC. 540 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 1: I think there's a couple options. We could try to 541 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: go with a balanced lineup, which I don't hate, or 542 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 1: we could try to jam in Rory. You take the 543 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:33,880 Speaker 1: first pick and we'll kind of go from there. 544 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,360 Speaker 2: Oh boy, there's two players from Mexico. One is Abraham 545 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 2: Answer and I am all in on Ai Answer. I 546 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 2: think he's a really good player. I'm kind of iffy 547 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 2: on him this week. Hasn't played great there the last 548 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 2: two years. Carlos Ortiz is going to play there? 549 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, now here. 550 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 2: Here's my thing. It's a no cut event, Peter. What's 551 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 2: gonna happen at these no cut events is that you 552 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 2: get into the weekend and half the field is gonna 553 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 2: say I don't have a chance, and either just it 554 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,719 Speaker 2: doesn't mean they're going to give up. I'm in forty 555 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 2: third place after two rounds. I'm not going all out 556 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 2: to finish in thirty first place. It just doesn't happen 557 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 2: that way. That said, Carlos Ortiz in his native country, 558 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 2: his home country, is not going to give up at all. 559 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 2: He's not going to say, hey, well I am what 560 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 2: I am, and it's fine. 561 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: I didn't play that great. 562 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 2: This guy who's going to grind for four straight rounds 563 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 2: at sixty six hundred on DraftKings, and he's been playing 564 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 2: better at twenty fifth and twenty sixth in his last 565 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 2: two starts. I'm all in on Carlos Ortiz. 566 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 1: I love that call. He's one of my I was 567 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: gonna mention him. I think he is a great play 568 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 1: someone I've been playing quite a lot lately and has 569 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: some really big talent. I think he's capable of competing. 570 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: He makes a lot of birdies, So I love the 571 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: Ortiz pick. I'll keep some optionality for us going forward. 572 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 1: And I mentioned it before. I think my favorite bet 573 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,239 Speaker 1: I don't want. I won't actually take him, but I 574 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: like Sung Jay over speed that has deemed a lot. 575 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 1: I was gonna go him. I'm gonna go with Dhemba. 576 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna piggyback what you said. I love 577 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,160 Speaker 1: what I've seen out of d Chambo last week, and 578 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 1: I like what the market's telling me in terms of 579 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 1: his line movement, and you having the positive take on 580 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: d Chamba put him over the edge, and his parents 581 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: really nice. So yeah, throwing in Chambo. Yeah. 582 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 2: I spent some time with d Chambeau, speaking with him 583 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 2: for a project I'm working on. It'll be out in 584 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,880 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks after the final round. Who sat 585 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 2: and talked for about ten to fifteen minutes. He's great, 586 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 2: he gets a bad rap. I know a lot of 587 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 2: people out there don't like Bryson spending time with Bryson, 588 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 2: speaking with Bryson, getting to kind of pick his brain 589 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 2: a little bit. I really enjoy it every time I 590 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 2: get a chance to talk to him. He's he's very 591 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 2: gatful and he's a nice guy. I mean, this is 592 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 2: not a guy who's sort of a jerk and said, okay, yeah, 593 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 2: I'll do it if I have to. He is very 594 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 2: very good with his time with the media, So I 595 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,120 Speaker 2: like talking to him. I'm gonna keep it low. I'm 596 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 2: gonna give you the big studs this week. I'm gonna 597 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 2: go with the lower rank guys. All Right, mentioned his 598 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 2: name earlier, and I know a lot of people don't 599 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 2: know his name, and I guess even fewer people can 600 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 2: spell his name. Christian Z. Whit and Height. This guy's 601 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 2: really good. I'm telling you he's been playing great on 602 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,679 Speaker 2: the European Tour one last week. I'm not sure how 603 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 2: many guys go straight from a Challenge Tour event to 604 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 2: a WGC event. I'm sure it's happened before, but it 605 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 2: doesn't happen that often. Whiten Height at sixty nine hundred, 606 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 2: I feel like it is a steal. The guy's playing 607 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 2: really well right now. 608 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: I like it. I think that's a very strong pick 609 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: and it definitely leads us to a more Stars and 610 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: Scrubs build. So yeah, it's Grid. I'm going Rory. I 611 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: really I think he's just at the very very top. 612 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: We talked about it before, but I even like I've 613 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: was looking for some Rory's futures. If you can find 614 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 1: him a tend to wonder better in the Masters, I 615 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 1: think that's a good bet too. And obviously tying up 616 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 1: money for future stinks. And I almost never advocate for 617 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: taking the top guy, but man, Rory is just off 618 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: the charts. I mean, he's hands down the top player. 619 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: T Degreen and he's a great scrambler still and maybe 620 00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: puts it even above average. I just think he's going 621 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: to be right there every single week. 622 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 2: I was doing everything I could to leave you enough 623 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 2: money to force you to pick Rory just because I 624 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,479 Speaker 2: wanted him in the lineup. So I'm glad you did that. 625 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 2: We've got two picks left. We've got sixteen thousand salary remaining, 626 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 2: eight thousand per player, and I've got a guy right 627 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 2: in the middle of eight thousand, and it's not Jordan Speed, 628 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 2: It's Matt Fitzpatrick. I think Matt Fitzpatrick is primed for 629 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 2: a really good week. Played Pebble two weeks ago, is okay, 630 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 2: played Riviera better. I think Mexico is going to suit 631 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 2: his game just a little bit better than the last 632 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 2: two weeks haven't. And I like Matt Fitzpatrick in this one. 633 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: Okay, all right? So that leaves me with eight thousand. 634 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go with Speed. I do to hope 635 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: he gets to go in soon. I'll go Somejay who 636 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: ended up missing the cut, which I thought was surprising. 637 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 1: You know, I had a pretty poor I mean shot 638 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: sixty nine to seventy five, so just a brutal end 639 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 1: of the day, which a lot happened to a lot 640 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: of golfers in the second round. But I like Sung 641 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: Jay every single week. Watched him warm up and Putty 642 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: had like six ten footers in a row, and I 643 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: was just like, man, these guys are good. I think 644 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: Sung Jay, I mean, he's as consistent as any of 645 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: the guys out there on tour right now. Actually, Joey 646 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: mentioned that Alan Prestios and Sung Jay just a great 647 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: ball striker and someone I think, you know, we talked 648 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 1: up a ton on this podcast, and anytime I can 649 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: get him blow eight thousand, I feel really good about 650 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: that lineup. So what are your thoughts. I mean, we 651 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: got we got Rory and d Chambeau, and then we 652 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: got a little mix of you know, some mid tier 653 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: and some cheap guys. I think it's a good spot. 654 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 2: I think that's kind of what you have to do 655 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 2: this week, is go after a few guys who might 656 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 2: not be highly owned, but try to differentiate yourself from 657 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 2: what everybody else is doing. We left one hundred bucks 658 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 2: on the table, which I'd almost recommend leaving a little 659 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 2: bit more out there in a small field. 660 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 1: A little bit more should I take Sung J out. 661 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: You think that's the move? 662 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 2: No, I'm okay with it. I like Sung j this 663 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 2: week coming off in Misticot. I think he's gonna be 664 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 2: lone than he would have been. 665 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: How about the Tyrrel Hatton angle. That's someone I didn't 666 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 1: mentioned that I think is a pretty interesting play at 667 00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: seventy four hundred. 668 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 2: I feel like he's going to be very highly owned 669 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 2: based on the fact that he's played really well here 670 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 2: in the last two years, and I just don't like 671 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 2: him that much. 672 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 1: Okay, that's that's more than fair. We'll leave Sung Jay 673 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 1: in there. Before we get out of here. Let's just 674 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: talk quickly Puerto Rico. We can build a lineup. 675 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 2: You want to make a lineup. Let's Puerto Rico lineup. 676 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: Let's walk to Puerto Rico lineup. And any little tidbits 677 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: that you have for the people on Puerto Rico, any 678 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 1: players that you're targeting and betting, or do you have 679 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: any thoughts about this tournament. 680 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 2: I've actually bet about five guys on this one already. 681 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 2: I bet one guy from Mexico. I bet five guys 682 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 2: for Puerto Rico already, So that tells you where I'm 683 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 2: looking right now and at the top of my list. 684 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 2: And I spoke with him after his round on Sunday. 685 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 2: He finished the sheriff second place at Riviera. Scott Brown 686 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 2: has a great record at Puerto Rico one in twenty thirteen, 687 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 2: as a few other top ten finishes. This guy and 688 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 2: I said, like, I kind of looked at him and 689 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 2: we're talking about how he played at Riviera, and I 690 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 2: looked at him. I said, forgive me if I'm getting 691 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 2: this wrong, but like, you have a really good record 692 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 2: in Puerto Rico. Right. He got of nods head and 693 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 2: smiles a little bit. He said, yeah, I play well there. 694 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 2: And I said, so you excited about this coming week? 695 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 2: Is that? Oh? Yeah, I can't wait to get out there. 696 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 2: It's my kind of tournament. So Scott Brown this week 697 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 2: at ninety four hundred, I'm in on him. Betting, I'm 698 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 2: in on him. DFS, whatever you can do to get 699 00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 2: Scott Brown the lineup. He's gonna be popular, but I 700 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 2: don't care. I think you have to have. 701 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: Okay, I like that call. I'm gonna go with someone 702 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 1: I think is very safe in this format. In this tournament, 703 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: the guys have been consistent on the PGA Tour. Maybe 704 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: his last three cuts actually at some you know, tough 705 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: fields relatively, and of course I have to take him 706 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: because he went to cso Martin Laird at eighty eight hundred, 707 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 1: I think is a very very strong value. He's a 708 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: big favorite in his matchups, and you know, he's a 709 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: guy who's grinded on the PGA Tour, and I feel like, 710 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: you know, looking through some of his better tournaments and 711 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: better finishes, when he's up against some weaker competition, he 712 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 1: can really thrive. So Martin laired Scott Brown. I think 713 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: we got a really good start there, although now we 714 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 1: have to look for a little bit more value. 715 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 2: We have to look for some value. I'm going to 716 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 2: give a shout out to our own Josh Perry, who 717 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 2: has been all over this Puerto Rico Open the entire week, 718 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 2: and one name that he really likes and I can't 719 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 2: find fault with it at all is Sebastian Kaplan, the 720 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 2: Danish player who has played so well already this season, 721 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 2: a sixth place finish at the MX twenty first at 722 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 2: Tory Pines. He's fallen off a little bit since then 723 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 2: missed his cut, missed the cutt in his last start 724 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 2: at Pebble Beach. But this guy is a good player, 725 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 2: and a good player against a average field is sounds 726 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 2: like a pretty good proposition to be So I'm going 727 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,719 Speaker 2: to take Kaplan there at where's he seventy two hundred? 728 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's a pretty sharp call. I will 729 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 1: go right in the mid tier. And this is probably 730 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 1: the strongest value if you just look at the betting 731 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: markets and how he's being respected as really moved, and 732 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: it makes sense looking at him. I think Norlander to me, 733 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: Hendrick Norlander is a really strong play. I didn't miss 734 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: the cut of the Farmer's Insurance, but it's made a 735 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: couple of cups before that, played well at the Sony Open, 736 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: played well at the RSM Classic, and at eighty five hundred, 737 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: he's priced kind of near the very top in these markets, 738 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 1: and I think he's a really strong play. 739 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 2: I'm gonna admit I was not going Henrick Norlander there. 740 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:26,360 Speaker 1: All right, versus Peter ouh Line, which I think is 741 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:30,839 Speaker 1: a pretty pretty good indicator that he's in. No. Ouh 742 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: Line has been up and down, but for instance, ouh 743 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 1: Line's eighty three hundred un DraftKings Kaplan, I'm sorry Norlander's 744 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: only eighty five hundred, so pretty nice value in that RecA. 745 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 2: At some point, we're going to figure out Peter u Line. 746 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 2: I thought he was destined to be a star four 747 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 2: years ago and it still hasn't happened, and I'm not 748 00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 2: sure why, but I believe he's still playing title equipment. 749 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 2: That's what I can say about Peter yu Line. So 750 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:55,360 Speaker 2: we've got just about the same that we had left 751 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 2: with two players in the Mexico lineup. We've got sixty 752 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 2: ten thousand and one hundred left. We had sixteen thousand before, 753 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,839 Speaker 2: so with just over eight thousand per player, I've got 754 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,919 Speaker 2: seventy eight hundred. Who I've been high on the entire year. 755 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 2: This guy. I wrote about him at the beginning of 756 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 2: the year in my column called the Leap because he 757 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 2: was one of the only players in the top twenty 758 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 2: in the all around ranking who wasn't an absolute superstar already. 759 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:22,360 Speaker 2: And that's Sam Ryder. 760 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 1: Yeah. 761 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 2: I love the fact that Sam Ryder does everything well. 762 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 2: Hasn't played great so far this year, but he's been okay, 763 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 2: sort of back and forth, off and on. At twenty 764 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 2: ninth at the AMEX, twenty eighth of the Sony of 765 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 2: fifty fifth in Phoenix. Nothing great. He's not knocking down records, 766 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 2: he's not you know, contending for titles. But I do 767 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,800 Speaker 2: think that at some point he's gonna start playing better golf, 768 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 2: and I would expect him to be pretty low owned 769 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 2: for Puerto Rico DFS lineups this week. So I'm leaving 770 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 2: you with a three hundred left for the last pick. 771 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: Peter, Well, we could honor our good friend just to 772 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 1: take a the sleeves and take the rat. He has 773 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 1: missed three his last three cuts. I don't like that. 774 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: I'll go with Bryce Garnett, who I think is pretty solid. 775 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 1: He's a pretty good favorite here too, looking at the matchup, 776 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 1: so mis one forty five favorite for hey Years, Hey 777 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 1: you're HAGGI, Hey Gey. I believe Heyy. So that's an 778 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 1: encouraging thing. And you know, looking through a couple models 779 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: here and different things, he's popping somewhat nicely at this 780 00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 1: price tag. So I think Garnett kind of finishes out 781 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: our lineup nicely. He has had a lot of cuts recently, 782 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 1: which is not encouraging, but was playing well at the 783 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 1: end of twenty nineteen, So I think Bryce Garnett seventy 784 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 1: nine hundred is not a bad plan. We leave four 785 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 1: hundred on the table. Scott Brown, Martin Laird, Kaplan, Norlander, 786 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:48,359 Speaker 1: Ryder and Garnett. I think they were pretty solid grouping there, 787 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 1: especially when you consider the field at the Puerto Rico 788 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 1: opened my. 789 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 2: Man Big Ticket Garnet. I covered a US Open qualifier 790 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 2: about ten years ago where Bryce Garnett was the first 791 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 2: guy with a medalist and I started calling him Big 792 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 2: Ticket as we were waiting for everybody else to come through, 793 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 2: and he's he's as nice a guy as there is 794 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 2: out there. I always try to break down the PGA 795 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 2: tour players, Like half the guys out there will say 796 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 2: hi to you just walking past before you even see him, 797 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 2: and the other half will wait for you to say 798 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 2: hi to them and then they'll say Hi. Bryce Garnett 799 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 2: I saw at the Northern Trust last year and he 800 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,319 Speaker 2: literally like pulled me aside. We're walking, you know, we're 801 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:30,840 Speaker 2: walking down a cart path in opposite directions, and he's like, hey, Jason, 802 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 2: what's going on? I said, Hey, what's up? Bryceon? Like 803 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 2: he stopped and we sat there and had a conversation 804 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,280 Speaker 2: for ten minutes. I mean, he's like above and beyond 805 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 2: nice guy. That said, if I might have gone Chase 806 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:44,560 Speaker 2: Seafford at that point instead of Garnett. But I like 807 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:45,800 Speaker 2: the Garnett pick because. 808 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 1: I was looking at he that's leaving a lot of 809 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,280 Speaker 1: money on the table, but he's certainly has much better 810 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 1: current form right now. 811 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like Seaford as well, but Garnett is a 812 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,399 Speaker 2: guy that I love rooting for, as nice a guy 813 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 2: as there is out there. Whenever they put together those 814 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 2: nice guy lists, they usually take it like the nicest 815 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 2: twenty guys have the top twenty five in the world. 816 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:06,799 Speaker 2: It's like, well, what about everybody else? And so no 817 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 2: one wants to hear that Bryce Garnett is a really 818 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 2: nice guy. No one wants to hear that Robert strib 819 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 2: is a really nice guy. Brendan Steele, who's a friend 820 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 2: of the pod, really nice guy. They want to hear 821 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 2: about Rory, they want to hear about Tiger, they want 822 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 2: to hear about Phil, they want to hear about big names. 823 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,239 Speaker 2: But oh, by the way, sometimes the nice guys aren't 824 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,839 Speaker 2: necessarily the best players. And the guys that are at 825 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 2: the top of the world rankings, Yeah. 826 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 1: Well, I'm happy we have a nice guy, and it's 827 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: a you know, this is a big event. Hopefully it's 828 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 1: a great story for someone out there.
