What is it? Where is it? So? 15 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 2: That is my new home course. I live in Woodland, California, 16 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 2: which is northwest of Sacramento, and if I go twenty 17 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 2: five minutes west of my house, it's called Yoshadihi and 18 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 2: it's a championship course designed by Troon Golf and it's 19 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 2: out at the Cash Creek Casino resort here in northern California. 20 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,040 Speaker 2: They sponsor like the Kings and the Sharks and the 21 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 2: Giants and the A's, so it's all the North cal 22 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 2: sporting teams that are sponsored by this giant casino resort. 23 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 2: And they have this flawless golf course out there, Championship 24 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 2: Course seventy four hundred yards set up in the Kpe Valley, 25 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 2: which is just a really gorgeous wine region of northern California, 26 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 2: and it only costs on a hundred bucks to play, 27 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 2: and they roll out the red cart before you. The 28 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 2: carts have GPS in them, they have starters, they have 29 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: marshalls that everything's free. They bring the carts out to 30 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 2: your two in the parking lot and then they clean 31 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 2: your clubs after the round. Everything's full service. They spare 32 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 2: no expense. And the first t is a four hundred 33 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 2: and fifty yard par four, but it's on an eighty 34 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 2: foot elevated tea box and it's called Eagle's Nest and 35 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 2: all the holes have a Native American name and then 36 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 2: the translation and that one translates to eagles Nest. So 37 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 2: you're overlooking the entire valley off the first tee, and 38 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 2: of course you feel like when you hit a t 39 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 2: shot off an eighty foot cliff. The ball just keeps 40 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 2: flying and that four hundred and fifty yard part four 41 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,959 Speaker 2: ends up being pretty short. But it's just that's where 42 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,919 Speaker 2: that picture is taken from it. I was just standing 43 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 2: on the t box and took a picture of the 44 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: whole course from where I was standing. 45 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: Oh man, Yes, spectacular vista.

I got 46 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: to get out there, visit you sometime and play that 47 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: course because it looks absolutely gorgeous.

All right, bo, I think 61 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: it's fair to say that the PGA is the ugly 62 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: step sister of golf's four majors, But there have definitely 63 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: been some memorable PGA championships over the years. Is there 64 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 1: a particular edition of the PGA that stands out in 65 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: your mind or even just a particular PGA memory that 66 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: jumps out to you. Yeah. 67 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 2: So there's been a number of them over years, including 68 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 2: a couple here at oak Hill. But the one that 69 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: sticks out to me for whatever reason, I'm not even 70 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 2: sure what year it was exactly, but it was the 71 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: year David Thom's tip that famous five wood off the 72 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 2: tee and stuck it on the long part three and 73 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: ended up winning. That that still sticks back in my 74 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 2: mind because I used to root for David Toms. That 75 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 2: guy was a fiery competitor. He went out there not 76 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 2: not hitting the ball a long way, but straight as 77 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 2: an arrow, and the dude was just. 78 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: Tough as nails. 79 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 2: So when I was a kid watching golf and I 80 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 2: remember David Tom's hitting that five wood and that that 81 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 2: that that still sticks to me. 82 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, Tom's could not hit the ball out of his 83 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: own shadow. But that guy was like always contending in 84 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 1: PGAs and US opens like where that it was a 85 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: really tight track and you had to just hit fairways. Yes, 86 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: yes for me. I mean it was that duel between 87 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: Tiger Woods and Bob May in two thousand at Valhalla. 88 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: They both finished at minus eighteen, five shots ahead of 89 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: the field, and Woods edged May by one stroke in 90 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 1: the three hole playoff. But man, this was when Tiger 91 00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: was just in full terminator more mode, like this unbeatable 92 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 1: cyborg and Bob May, this journeyman pro just goes toe 93 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 1: to toe with him and didn't flinch all day. Almost 94 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: slay the dragon that day, but not quite. And then 95 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: you mentioned at o'kill bo that great finishing. I think 96 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: it was a seven iron from one hundred and seventy 97 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: four yards that Sean mckeel hit in two thousand and three, 98 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 1: I mean, hits it, yeah, three inches, just unbelievable, another 99 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: journeyman pro. I mean, maybe this is the tournament where 100 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: the journeyman pros can make noise. It does seem like 101 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 1: the breakthrough Major where apparently you know every so often 102 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: these guys sort of come out of the fog, and 103 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,159 Speaker 1: you know, someone unexpected wins. But speaking of o'kill bow, 104 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: the version that the players are going to see this 105 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 1: week is not the same as the one they saw 106 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: back in two thousand and three when Sean mckill won, 107 00:05:55,480 --> 00:06:00,040 Speaker 1: or back in twenty thirteen when Jason Dufner won and 108 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 1: edged Jim Furick by a shot. Since then, golf course 109 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: architect Andrew Green has overseen a major renovation of this course, 110 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: which is in Pittsford, New York, basically intended to make 111 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: it truer to the original Donald Ross design. O'kill well 112 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: once again plays a par seventy, but last time they 113 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: had the PGA Championship here with seven and sixty three yards. 114 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: Now it's been stretched out to seventy four hundred yards, 115 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: so it's going to play long, and you know, a 116 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: couple of new holes, a couple of radical redesigns. But 117 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 1: do you think Oakill favors any particular players or any 118 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 1: particular types of players. 119 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 2: I wouldn't say overall that it does. But what you're 120 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 2: going to find is that a hot golfer does well 121 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,919 Speaker 2: here because you have to with the PGA being the 122 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 2: ugly steps sister of the majors. I think that really 123 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: applies to most courses that they have on the PGA 124 00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 2: Championship rotation, but it doesn't apply Okill. Okill's legendary venue, 125 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 2: whether it's for a US Open, a PGA Ryder Cup. 126 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 2: Oak Hill's one of the toughest courses on the planet, 127 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 2: and they set it up even if it's US Open 128 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 2: standards where it's ungodly difficult, it's still going to be 129 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: really tough on these guys. So I think it's going 130 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: to equalize the field quite a bit. That's why you 131 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 2: saw Sean mckeel win here. Even if the course was different, 132 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 2: it's not going to be so radically different that it's 133 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 2: going to favor a certain type of player over another. 134 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 2: I will say that if you have a hot driver 135 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 2: and you can put yourself in good approach positions to 136 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 2: stay below the holes here, because the greens pretty much 137 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 2: all are very severely sloped from back to front. They 138 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 2: have a lot of crowning, they have deep bunkers. If 139 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 2: you're hitting good approach shots from decent fairway positions, that's 140 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 2: the kind of player I'm looking for as a type 141 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 2: of guy who is traditionally a good driver the golf 142 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,559 Speaker 2: ball and good from tea green, but also is doing 143 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 2: that extremely well right now in the moment, because if 144 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 2: you're off a little bit with your driver here, you're 145 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 2: going to be over par and in jeopardy of missing 146 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 2: a cut. 147 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. One of the things I had seen about the 148 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: redesign is that over the years, I guess, from players 149 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: splashing sand out of bunkers, like around the edges of 150 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: the greens, that had given the greens sort of a 151 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: bowl effect. So it was like shots that shouldn't have 152 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: been holding the greens were holding the greens. And now 153 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: that's not going to happen with the redesign, Like those 154 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: Aaron shots are going to be trickling out into the rough, 155 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: and you know, maybe it'll be if not you at 156 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 1: Open Roff, it'll probably be pretty penal rough, all right. Bo. 157 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: So the favorites here, we've got John Rahm and Scottie 158 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: Scheffler coming in as the co favorites, both plus seven 159 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: fifty to win, and then we've got Rory McElroy at 160 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 1: now he's up to plus twelve hundred on DraftKings, he 161 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: was plus eleven hundred just a day or two ago. 162 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: They're the three heaviest favorites. We saw Scheffler contend this 163 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: week at the AT and T by Ron Nelson. Do 164 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: any of them present value to you? 165 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 2: Absolutely not. This we just said it's a great equalizer, course, 166 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 2: And I think other than Scotty, who's showed just recently 167 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 2: this week that he's in decent form, he hasn't been 168 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 2: in top Scotty form for a few weeks. And that's 169 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: that's the best I can say, because Rom hasn't looked 170 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,959 Speaker 2: the same since his very very hot start where he 171 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 2: had four wins to kick off the season, and Rory 172 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 2: hasn't been anywhere close to the top form we've seen 173 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 2: him at recently. So I think at their current numbers, 174 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 2: they're a little too short for me because their recent 175 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 2: form isn't blazing hot like some of these guys in 176 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 2: the next group where the odds are a little. 177 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 1: Bit more favorable. Yeah, Scotty interests me a little more 178 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: than Rom. And just the fact that like he had 179 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: that bad Saturday this week and still was like, you know, 180 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: in contention down the final holes, and just like this 181 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: this guy is I feel like he's just by far 182 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: the most consistent guy on tour this year, as good 183 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: as Rom was early in the year. I kind of 184 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: agree with you. The price is a little a little 185 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: too short for me to be interested. And Rory, I 186 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: don't know how you can touch Rory. I mean, you 187 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: know Bo how good Rory always is at Quail Hollow, 188 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: and two weeks ago, Rory was a train wreck at 189 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 1: Quail Hollow, Like he couldn't find the fairway with a 190 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,319 Speaker 1: seeing eye dog exactly in that tournament. So like, if 191 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: he's sprang it around with the driver, I just do 192 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: not want any piece of him in a PGA championship. 193 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's hard to trust a guy who we 194 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 2: haven't seen drive the ball like he's He's been known 195 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 2: to drive the ball better than anybody in the world. 196 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 2: We just haven't seen it this season. And that's really 197 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 2: what makes Rory so dominant. When he's on his game 198 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 2: and he's finding fairways, he's also hitting the ball farther 199 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 2: thanbody else. When he finds fairways, he's hitting wedges into 200 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 2: greens that the other guys are hitting mid iron two 201 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 2: And that's when you see Rory completely take over and 202 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 2: win by a lot of shots. But that hasn't been 203 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three. Rory Rom is kind of cooled off. 204 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 2: I still think he has plenty of firepower for a 205 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 2: course like this if he's in good form. Just like 206 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 2: I said about Scotty last week, is I said Scotty 207 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 2: has not been in good form entering the week, but 208 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 2: if there's one event where he could get into form, 209 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 2: it would be at TPC Craig Ranch. And we saw that, 210 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 2: even though he didn't quite win, he's finished top five, 211 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 2: and we saw a lot of that Scheffler magic where 212 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 2: the guy can score from anywhere, and he's a great 213 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 2: driver of the golf ball, great approach player, and his 214 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 2: short game is immaculate. So out of the top favorites, 215 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 2: if I'm going to throw extra units to overcome how 216 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 2: short the odds are, I'm going to favorite Scheffler too. 217 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, just to I'll mention that the odds for Scheffler 218 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: and Rom to finish top five are both plus one 219 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: eighty on DraftKings, and for them to finish top ten 220 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 1: minus odds for both guys actually Scheffler minus one fifteen, 221 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 1: Rom minus one ten. So I guess technically Scheffler is 222 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:17,439 Speaker 1: the favorite, if only by a heir over John Ram. 223 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: Before we continue, bet mgm is offering one thousand dollars 224 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: to new users with their first bet free offer. Sign 225 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: up at bet mgm using the promo code Juice and 226 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: get paid back up to one thousand dollars in free 227 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: bonuses even if you don't win. All right, let's talk 228 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: about some of the other top guys. Bo Patrick Cantley, 229 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: Justin Thomas, Brooks, Koepka, Xanderschoffley, Tony Feno, Victor Hoblin, Dustin Johnson, 230 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:51,199 Speaker 1: and Jordan Speith all dwell in the plus twenty two 231 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: hundred two plus three thousand range, and I think Jason 232 00:12:55,559 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: Day has now joined that tier after winning. He's in 233 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: twenty eight at and T Byron Nelson with a scintillating 234 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: sixty two on Sunday. Yeah, he's plus twenty eight hundred, 235 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: So BOE from that group, Who do you like? Who 236 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 1: are you fading? 237 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 2: It's hard to fade any of these guys. I would 238 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 2: say Justin Thomas could be a fade because his approach 239 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 2: game has not been strong this year, nor has his 240 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 2: puttering stroke been anywhere close to good enough to win 241 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 2: a major. Xanderschoffley is one of my favorites this week 242 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 2: twenty two hundred plus twenty two hundred odds for a 243 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 2: guy who's playing his lights out as he is lately. 244 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 2: I think that this course sets up extremely well for 245 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 2: somebody like Xander Schoffley, and then I like Victor Hovelin, 246 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 2: but I don't love him. I'm liking Jason Day a 247 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 2: lot more than he won this week, full fading Jordan 248 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:52,359 Speaker 2: Speith because just like mister sprays a lot Rory mcelroyd, 249 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 2: Jordan Speith hasn't found a fairway since what since high school? 250 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 2: It seems like because the guy is always in the trees, 251 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 2: you cannot live in the trees with all these giant 252 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 2: oaks at Oak Hill, I mean everything its name implies, 253 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 2: even though they took a bunch of them out to 254 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 2: free up the course layout. So it's back to Donald 255 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 2: Ross's esque site lines and planning. I don't think Jordan 256 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 2: Speith makes the cut this week, so if you want 257 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 2: to bet Jordan speif missed cut, you'll probably get some 258 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 2: good odds. But one of my favorites at the end 259 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 2: of this thirty to one kind of window is calling 260 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 2: more Kawa. From tee to Green. There is hardly anybody 261 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 2: who can think of better than Colin Moore Kawa. If 262 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 2: his putting is average, he's going to be in contention 263 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 2: this week. 264 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, back to Speed for a second. I mean, I'm 265 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: is he even going to play? Is that a lock? Like? 266 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: He is dealing with a wrist injury too, and actually 267 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: had to skip the Byron Nelson even though it's just 268 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: outside his hometown of Dallas. That's like an annual stop 269 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: for him and he had to bail out. So yeah, 270 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: this red flash, this is a good yep. So you know, 271 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: like if you if you look at it and see 272 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: Jordan Speed, the guy's contended on a lot of majors. 273 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: You know, he would appear to present some value at 274 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: plus three thousand to win, but you know, considering the 275 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: form and just really the injury, I'm more worried about 276 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: the injury than the form. With him. You mentioned Shoffley, 277 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: I think he has finished top five in his last 278 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: three events, top ten in his last five, so absolutely 279 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: he has been on fire lately, scorching. Yeah, what do 280 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: you think about Brooks bo I mean, this is a 281 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: dude who just always gets up for the majors he does. 282 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 2: But also what we saw was I don't think he's 283 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 2: conditioned for majors the same way he was three or 284 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 2: four years ago. We saw him pretty much collapse at 285 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 2: Augusta on Sunday, and that is really concerning for me 286 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 2: and so brooks Kopka. I think he's a decent player 287 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 2: to bet on as a first round leader, because you 288 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: know he's going to get up for a major. But 289 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 2: as far as winning outright, I'm not going to go 290 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 2: that far. I might throw a couple of dimes on 291 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 2: him making top ten or top five, but I'm not 292 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 2: going to get aggressive with him just because of what 293 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 2: I saw at Augusta. Oakhill is kind of a course 294 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 2: where he can. If he's getting squirrely off the tee 295 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 2: like he did at Sunday at Augusta, that would be 296 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 2: death for him, because as great as he is when 297 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 2: he's on, I want to see him put it together 298 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 2: for four days. 299 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. I like the idea of a first round leader, 300 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: bet On. Are you at all interested in Dustin Johnson? 301 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: He just won on the Live Tour in Tulsa this weekend. 302 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's another guy coming in red hot. It's looking really, 303 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 2: really good and as a bomber who is more reliably 304 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 2: hitting fairways than Rory McElroy. It wasn't that long ago 305 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 2: that Dustin Johnson was the class of the PGA Tour 306 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 2: as far as off the tea game, and then he 307 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 2: can get as hot as anybody in the world. So 308 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 2: I think out of the live guys, he would be 309 00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 2: my favorite over Kopka. But that's that's just preference for me. 310 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 2: I think DJ is he's just as good as it 311 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 2: gets at top form, and if that shows up to Okaill, 312 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 2: it's going to be over in a hurry for everyone. 313 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:15,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, let me ask you about the live guys in general. Well, 314 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: first of all, like, is there anyone from the live 315 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 1: tour we should maybe consider besides Koepka, besides DJ? And 316 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: second of all, like, do you think generally like are 317 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: what's your willingness to back live tour players in the majors. 318 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but I worry that they 319 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,719 Speaker 1: do not have the same sort of competitive environment on 320 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: the live tour. You know, these guys are getting a 321 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 1: lot of guaranteed money. It's like a kind of a 322 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: lighter environment. They're playing music and they've got these side 323 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: team competitions, and it just seems like a lot more 324 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: like you know, buddies playing on a Sunday relative to 325 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: the PGA Tour. So I don't know, do you Does 326 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: that make you any less inclined to back the Live 327 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: Tour guys? 328 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 2: Maybe a little, but I'm not going to get carried away. 329 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 2: These guys just showed it Augusta that there's still plenty 330 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 2: good at golf. There's still plenty good enough to compete 331 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 2: all the way through. Most of these guys that were 332 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 2: talking about were number one in the world for a 333 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 2: period of time, and that wasn't that long ago. So 334 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 2: I'm not going to, I think, to go farther and 335 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 2: farther away from their PGA Tour tenure, then yes, it 336 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 2: starts to become more of a factor because they're farther 337 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 2: removed from that type of competition. But if they're able 338 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 2: to play all four majors in the future, I don't 339 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 2: think there's going to be any distinguishment at all, because 340 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 2: I think there's still plenty of competitiveness on the Live Tour. 341 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 2: It's a little bit more of a different product, but 342 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 2: I don't think it's that much different to those guys. 343 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 2: I think that they still want to win money, They 344 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 2: still want to go out there and compete, especially these 345 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 2: guys at the top, because they know what it's like 346 00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 2: to win majors and to feel that and compete and 347 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 2: have that edge on a Sunday. I don't think it 348 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 2: matters which tour they play for. 349 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, which is why I'm still kind of interested in 350 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: Patrick Reid at plus eight thousand. 351 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 2: It's such a soft, soft line for him. 352 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, eighty to one odds for a guy who, man, like, 353 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 1: when he has got you know, when he's in contention, 354 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: he's tough to get rid of. Yeah, And you know, 355 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: like we kind of saw a little bit of that 356 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: at a gospel like he was he was kind of 357 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: hanging around there. So man, yeah, he's getting faded, and 358 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 1: I wonder if he's maybe out of sight, out of 359 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 1: mind for better these lines. 360 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,199 Speaker 2: He won me damn good money at the Masters, so 361 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 2: I'll keep I'll keep riding that too, because he's getting 362 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 2: really soft odds and he's still a really good player. 363 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 2: Even if he's the most unlikable athlete on the planet 364 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 2: right now, it really doesn't matter because that's the guy 365 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 2: wins your money. I'm going to keep rooting for him 366 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 2: to make me money. I don't have to listen to 367 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 2: what he says or who he sues. 368 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, plus eight thousand win, plus sixteen hundred to finish 369 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 1: top five, plus seven hundred to finish top ten. Yeah. 370 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: So are there any longer shots or guys we haven't 371 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: talked about who you think might be worth Better's attention 372 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 1: this week? 373 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 2: So the first one I'll tell you about is another 374 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 2: Live guy. Joaquin Neeman is another guy that on the 375 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,640 Speaker 2: Live that's a world class player, especially from tee to green, 376 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 2: and he's kind of folded up and choked a few 377 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 2: times in majors, but I think he's on the verge 378 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 2: this This guy is really good, one of those just 379 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,120 Speaker 2: awesome pure strikers of the ball that's great off the tee, 380 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 2: great from the fairway, on approach. I think that he 381 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 2: could make some noise here. Ninety to one odds for 382 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 2: him to win outright, And I'm going to go way 383 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 2: down here to my guy from Chico, California. He just 384 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 2: showed us already this year. It was first PG tourment 385 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 2: at the Arnold. Kurt Kitty Yamack can hang with the 386 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 2: big boys on Sunday and he had five of the 387 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 2: top ten chasing him down at bay Hill earlier this season, 388 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 2: he stared them down and beat all of them to 389 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 2: win three point six million dollars. I think he's the 390 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 2: moment's not too big, the pressure's not too big for 391 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 2: Kirk Kitty Yama, and he's definitely got the t degree 392 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,239 Speaker 2: green game to get hot and win this. Saying at 393 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty to one, that believe is the 394 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 2: same exact line he had at bay Hill. 395 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, two hundred and fifty to one, and you 396 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 1: got Niemen at ninety to one. So those are interesting 397 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: long shots. Indeed, I guess my my guy who I 398 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 1: think could be worth a look as a deep long shot, 399 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: A guy I'll probably throw like two or three dollars 400 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: on who's two hundred and fifty to one is Hayden Buckley, Yeah, 401 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: who's just been really good over the last month and 402 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: a half. He's grinding out, Yeah pretty much. He's having 403 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: a nice year. And you know, just one of those 404 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 1: guys who doesn't read with betters here, hence the long odds. 405 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: Any interest in either Max Homa or Sam Burns good 406 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: young players who now I believe Holma is sixth in 407 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,919 Speaker 1: the world, Burns thirteenth, and you know, Burns won the 408 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 1: match Play Championship, you know, beat Scottie Scheffler head to 409 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 1: head in I think the semi finals of that one. 410 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: But neither of these guys with a real illustrious track 411 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 1: record in the majors so far. I don't think Burns 412 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: is finished. Granted he's only like twenty six, yeah, but 413 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: I don't think he's finished better than like twentieth in 414 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: a major so far. 415 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 2: I think I favor him over Homa at this course 416 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 2: because his off the T game is great. He can 417 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 2: score in bunches on tough courses. We've seen that from Burns. 418 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 2: But Holma's off the TA game it's a really bad lately, 419 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 2: and I really do fear for him hanging on that. 420 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 2: He's an amazing grinder. He does really well on tough 421 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 2: courses in general, but he has not been accurate off 422 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 2: the tea lately, and so that kind of scares me 423 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 2: off of Maxhoma because we've seen him at his best 424 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 2: earlier in the season and then lately, kind of like rom, 425 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 2: he's just cooled off. And you kind of have to 426 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 2: be in really really good all through the bag form 427 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 2: to win at O'khill. 428 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 1: All right, But let's talk about one more guy before 429 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: we get to our respective betting cards, and that's a 430 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: guy we were talking about pre show where we both 431 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,160 Speaker 1: seem to be expressing at least mild interest in this guy, 432 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 1: Matthew Fitzpatrick, who's been mister Majors of lates. He has 433 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 1: finished no worse than twenty sixth in any of his 434 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: last six Majors appearances. He of course won the US 435 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: Open last year, and I think he finished maybe either 436 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: fourth or fifth in the PGA, or maybe it was 437 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,439 Speaker 1: the British Open. I can't remember one of those. He 438 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: was a top five so tied for tenth at the 439 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: Masters in April. What do you think about young mister Fitzpatrick. 440 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,880 Speaker 2: It's green flag racing as far as I'm concerned. Great 441 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 2: number at thirty five to one to win outright, and 442 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 2: he's nails. He's tough as nails. He's won this season, 443 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 2: coming in with great form. Another guy that's coming in 444 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 2: red hot. We like to see that, especially at a 445 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 2: course this difficult. We're talking about a course that's probably 446 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 2: gonna have a range of a winning score between two 447 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 2: over par and six under par. I don't think it's 448 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 2: going to be any better than six hunder par for 449 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 2: a total winning score this year at the PGA. So 450 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 2: that that's to tell you all you need to know 451 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 2: about what kind of grinder it's going to take to 452 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 2: win this tournament. And fits your guy, fits fitz Morris 453 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 2: and Fitzpatrick are. I mean, the Irish got to stick 454 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 2: together here, and even though he's English, the Fitzes should 455 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 2: stick together because I think matt Fitzpatrick is a great 456 00:24:57,920 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 2: pick this week. 457 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 1: Got experienced in the same general neighborhood too, because we 458 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:09,439 Speaker 1: are not far from the Northwestern campus in Evanston, Illinois, 459 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: where Matthew Fitzpatrick was a standout collegiate golfer. Yeah, man, 460 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: I like him. I don't know. I don't understand the 461 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: lack of respect with the odds. Maybe it's because he 462 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: looks like your annoying kid brother or whatever, and he's small. 463 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,199 Speaker 1: I know, I don't want people to bet him up. 464 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: But yeah, you look at him and he looks like 465 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: he's maybe one hundred and fifty pounds soaking wet, but 466 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: the guy bombs it. 467 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:34,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. 468 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 1: I think I want to say he's top thirty in 469 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: driving distance this year. Right now, play golf. 470 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 2: All you have to do is figure out a way 471 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 2: to build club at speed with the body type that 472 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 2: you're given. We saw with Rory maclas he designed as 473 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 2: he put his body and conditioned it for speed with 474 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,679 Speaker 2: all the core strength and inflection that they require to 475 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 2: generate speed at that low weight. Fitz has done the 476 00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 2: same thing. He's completely retooled his body to generate a 477 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 2: ton of speed and he can hang with the big boys. 478 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 2: He'd bonsa just as far as anybody else. He's really 479 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 2: accurate off the tea too. That's gonna be huge this week. 480 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. Justin Thomas too, not a big man, and he 481 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 1: crushes the ball, so you do not have to be 482 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 1: big to hit it a long way? All right, Bob. 483 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: Now we've reached the end of this show, so why 484 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: don't we discuss our betting cards. What have you got, 485 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: my friend? 486 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 2: So I have the most weight thrown onto Xander Shoffley 487 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 2: so far, I've thrown some on fits and Cam Young 488 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 2: also at thirty five to one, and then a little 489 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 2: bit on Tommy Fleetwood. And I'm getting down to where 490 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 2: I do want to throw a little bit more on 491 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 2: some of the guys we talked about here tonight. But 492 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 2: I think those are the other only ones I didn't 493 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 2: mention Cam Young and Tommy Fleetwood. Those guys just stand 494 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,360 Speaker 2: out to me as from Tea to Green being listen 495 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 2: for smart enough to work their experience, enough to work 496 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:07,159 Speaker 2: their way around a challenging course like this where the 497 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 2: new sidelines for Donald Ross have been restored by the 498 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 2: new guy Green, and that's going to be important because 499 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 2: you have to plan your way around the golf course 500 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 2: and hit good quality shots one at a time. If 501 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 2: you get too far ahead of yourself and a major, 502 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 2: especially on a course of this caliber, it's going to 503 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 2: eat yep. 504 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,880 Speaker 1: So I've got Scotty Scheffler to win at plus seven 505 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 1: point fifty. I've got Xander Schoffley too, Bo. I'm feeling 506 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: you on this one. Man. The PGA seems like, and 507 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 1: we talked about it at the top of the show, 508 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 1: that it can be the breakthrough major. This seems like 509 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: a fitting place for Xander Schoffley to get his first one. 510 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 1: I do have Brooks Kopka to finish top five at 511 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 1: plus four hundred. Wow. You know, I didn't feel great 512 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: about betting him to win, but I like him to contend. 513 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 1: I bet fits across the board Fitzpatrick at plus thirty 514 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: five hundred to win, plus six hundred for top five 515 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 1: and plus two point eighty for top ten. I've got 516 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: a bet on Tyrrell Hatton Bow to finish top ten 517 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: at plus four hundred. Not my favorite player, he's a 518 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: whiny little fellow, but man, he's he's having a really 519 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: nice year though he's playing. He's Yeah, he's had I 520 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 1: think four top sixes this year, including a solo second 521 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: at the Players Championship, So really nice year. I've got 522 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: Patrick Reid to finish top ten at plus seven hundred, 523 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,400 Speaker 1: and then I did, in fact bet Hayden Buckley a 524 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: very small little bet to win at two hundred and 525 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: fifty to one, and also a little bet something on 526 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: him for a top ten at plus sixteen hundred. So 527 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: it's a very full betting card completely Gama with Kidiyama 528 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 1: something to win in something on top ten. Nice all right, 529 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 1: but one last question for you, what do you see 530 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 1: is you sort of alluded to it, what do you 531 00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 1: see as a winning number here relative to part. 532 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 2: Depending on whether it is an upstate New York by Rochester, 533 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 2: so it could get a little hairy for weather, but 534 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 2: probably looking at a beautiful forecast up there this time 535 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 2: of year. 536 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, not bad wins in the ten to twelve mile 537 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: an hour rank. It's not going to be gets you. 538 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 2: The issue is going to be this course and planning 539 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 2: way around it. Avoiding huge numbers. Looking at bogie avoidance 540 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 2: numbers is going to be a big part of my 541 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 2: week and weighted model this week. Being able to get 542 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 2: off with a par on tough, tougher holes. This course 543 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 2: is littered with very few relief holes comparison to the 544 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 2: challenging ones where you're just scraping for par so I'll 545 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 2: say the winning sore wi be at minus one. 546 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 1: Oh wow. Yeah, that's going to be tough. That is 547 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: a survival type track, so that's very interesting, ladies and gentlemen. 548 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 1: That is going to do it.
