Traditionally not 12 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: one of my favorite events on the PGA Tour calendar, 13 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: but this year they are making some major changes to 14 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,919 Speaker 1: the format and personally I love all of these changes. 15 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 1: We'll talk about the new format and also recap last 16 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: week's Farmers Insurance Open in just a moment, but first 17 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: I do want to mention that this show is now 18 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 1: sponsored by Underdog Fantasy.

Last week at Tory Pine's thirty one year 27 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 1: old Frenchman I know four in a row, thirty one 28 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: year old Frenchman Matthew Pavan fended off final round playing 29 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 1: partners Nikolai Hogard and Steven Jaeger to win with the 30 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 1: score of thirteen under par, one shot better than Hoguard, 31 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: and Pavan made a harrowing eight foot par putt on 32 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: the final hole to clinch the win. It was quite 33 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: a finish boy. He really had to scramble on the 34 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: par five eighteenth, puts his drive into a bunker, puts 35 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: the layup into some thick rough. Not exactly a textbook 36 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: par on. 37 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 2: The eighteenth hole. 38 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: But Pavon who went off and around and twenty five 39 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: to one, and I believe bo. Only his third PGA 40 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: Tour event, and get this, he became the first French 41 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: golfer to win on the PGA Tour since World War Two. 42 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: How's that for history. So a couple of takeaways for me, 43 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: Bo Pavon was the main story. But I was so 44 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:24,239 Speaker 1: impressed by Nikolai Hogard. I was sure he was gonna 45 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 1: win on Sunday, and I suspect he would have won 46 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: a playoff had Pavan not been able to get that 47 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: final putt to drop on the seventy second hole. But 48 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: Hoguard the twenty two year old day and just has 49 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: so much game it wouldn't surprise me if he wound 50 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: up having a Victor Hovelin tip of breakout season. 51 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 2: I think he's that good. 52 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 1: I think that's the reason he was selected for the 53 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 1: Ryder Cup team last year. You can just see it 54 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: with him. I mean, he is seemingly impervious to pressure 55 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: and uh, just pretty good all around. So the other one, 56 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: Tony Fenow's ball striking this past week was good enough 57 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: to win. It was absolutely good enough to win at 58 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: Torrey Pines. But for his putting, Bo, those Poa greens 59 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: really vexed poor Feeno and I don't know how many 60 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 1: times he hit his approach shot to ten or fifteen 61 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 1: feet only to miss the birdie putt, And it seemed 62 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 1: like it was happening to him basically every hole on Sunday, So, 63 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: on the one hand, probably a good sign for final 64 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: that he's so dialed in with the ball striking. On 65 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: the other hand, that performance does not exactly make me 66 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: eager to bet him on the POA Greens this week 67 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: at the AT and T Pebble Beach pro am Bo. Anyway, 68 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: any takeaways you had from the Farmer's Insurance Open. 69 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 3: Hoyard was one of them. He was in one of 70 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 3: my in one of my DFS pools that I created 71 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 3: just because his upside is extremely high. You said, twenty 72 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 3: two year old from Denmark. His brother was in contention 73 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 3: on the DP World Tour last week, so Rasmus Hoigard 74 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 3: and Nikolai Hoigard both in contention, and it's they're just 75 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 3: so talented. I don't know if we're going to see 76 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 3: that Hovelin type breakout time this season, maybe next year 77 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 3: or the year after that. He's still very young, unpolished. 78 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 3: We saw how Hayes struggled to kind of close the 79 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 3: deal on Sunday because nobody was really going after that win. 80 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 3: I was hoping Xander Schoffley, who was my one and 81 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 3: dun pick last week was going to make a charge 82 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 3: on Sunday and he shot two hunder par for he 83 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 3: pretty much shot even par for that final round and 84 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 3: for after the first three holes, and that was it. 85 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 3: So nobody really went and got that tournament. Pavon made 86 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 3: that amazing shot from the rough on eighteen to seal 87 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 3: the victory and that was it. But I mean, that's 88 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 3: all These guys are so talented. I was making the 89 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 3: joke that with the way the fifty four hole leaderboard looked, 90 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 3: that the US team is not going to win the 91 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 3: Ryder Cup anytime soon, because this was like your alternates 92 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 3: for the euro team, not even guys that were Ryder 93 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 3: Cup eligibly yet the Ryder Cup alternate euro team was 94 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 3: the entire top ten of Tory Pines last week through 95 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 3: fifty four holes, and you end up getting first and 96 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 3: second being Hoyguard who is going to be a Ryder 97 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 3: Cup mainstay. Pavon. We'll see, We'll see. He's a really 98 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 3: nice winner there. I hate to say it, but I 99 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 3: hate this week. We might get a fifth in a row. 100 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 3: Even in an elevated. 101 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: Event, we could bo But the thing is, there are 102 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: not many guys with triple digit odds in this field 103 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: just because it's only an eighty man field and it's 104 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: actually here, really good field. I mean, it's hard to 105 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: find any guys who don't have any sort of chance 106 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: to win this tournament. Like I mean, I think you 107 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 1: could see, I don't know, there's sixty sixty five guys in 108 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 1: this field who could win this week, I think. So 109 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: it's going to be a really interesting event. 110 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. 111 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: So now we're traveling up the northern or traveling north 112 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: up the California coast to the Monterey Peninsula. That's right 113 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: for the AT and T Pebble Beach pro Am, and 114 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: so let's get to those format changes I teased earlier. Now, 115 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: in the past, the first three rounds were split between 116 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: three courses, Pebble Beach, Spyglass Hill, and the Monterey Peninsula 117 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: Country Club. Now Monterey Peninsula CC is out, and I'm 118 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 1: not really going to miss it. It's one round at 119 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 1: Pebble on the first two days of the tournament for 120 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: all these guys, one round at Spyglass Hill, and then 121 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: the entire weekend will be contested at Pebble Beach, as 122 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: it should be. Also, now we had that pro am 123 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: event in past years still going to be pro am, 124 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 1: but the amateurs are only playing the first two rounds 125 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: with the pros. No more will we tune in to 126 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 1: watch the PGA professionals play Pebble Beach on Saturday only 127 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 1: to have to watch George Lopez and Huey Lewis hitting 128 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: bunker shots. 129 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 3: Or just the CEO of Oracle. 130 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 2: It's just yeah, exactly, Larry Larry. 131 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 3: He's not necessarily the local billionaires that just want to 132 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 3: go and have a. 133 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 2: Round, or Larry the Cable Guy for that matter. 134 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: Bo I do not need to see Larry the Cable 135 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: Guy hit iron shots. So weekend coverage is going to 136 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: give us some of the best players in the world 137 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: playing one of the most iconic courses in the world, 138 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: Pebble Beach. And finally, the tour has designated this as 139 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: a signature event, so the eighty man field is a 140 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: pretty star studded one. In past years, a lot of 141 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: players top players skip this event because well, who wants 142 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: to be stuck dragging around amateur playing partners for six 143 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: hour rounds. 144 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 2: But no more loaded field. 145 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: Oh and one other thing, this is also no cut event, 146 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: so all eighty players are going to play all four 147 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: rounds and yeah, Spyglass Hill par seventy two seven forty 148 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: one yards not a long course, but smallish POA greens. 149 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 2: And then we have difficults, yes, yes, sir. 150 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: And then we have Pebble Beach par seventy two, almost 151 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,679 Speaker 1: dainty by tour standards at six nine and seventy two yards, 152 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: but these are the smallest greens on tour. And as 153 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: with Spyglass Hill, the greens are POA. So you talked 154 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: about it last week, Bo, POA greens are tricky. We're 155 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: going to see the pros miss more short in medium 156 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: range pots than usual. I think I saw something like 157 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: fifteen foot pots at Pebble Beach are about a twenty 158 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: five percent proposition even for the tour pros. 159 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 2: It is wild. 160 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: Driving distance not a big factor at Pebble because it's 161 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: a shorter course and there's some holes where you simply 162 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: run out of fairway zero. So and Bo, we often 163 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: get rainy weather at this event, and this year will 164 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: seemingly be no exception. The forecast is calling for rainy 165 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: conditions much of the tournament. I believe the only day 166 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: where they're not forecasting rain is Saturday, and we should 167 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: probably acknowledge the possibility that this event could be shortened 168 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: fifty four holes because of the weather. We've seen that 169 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: happen in years past. 170 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 2: Maybe not. 171 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: Let's be optimist, and we're going to see a little 172 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: breeze throughout the tournament and maybe a lot of breeze 173 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: on Sunday when they're saying fifteen to twenty five mile 174 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: an hour winds, temperatures in the mid fifties, Paul, what's 175 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: going on in California not exactly balmy conditions now. 176 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 3: This is par for the course, no pun intended for 177 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 3: the northern coast of California in February, and so yeah, 178 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 3: to be expected. The rain, it's not going to be 179 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 3: heavy enough to call anything off. There's no thunderstorms, there's 180 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 3: no torrential downpour. We're talking about sporadic rain showers throughout 181 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 3: the weekend. Thursday Friday going to be chilly and wet. 182 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,719 Speaker 3: That's pretty much Monterey half of the year. That's what 183 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 3: you get. Even in July's chilly, rainy, windy, overcast, foggy, 184 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 3: you're gonna get all that. And Pebble Beach is gorgeous. Regardless, 185 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 3: it's going to be a challenge, especially if that wind 186 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 3: picks up. Spyglass Hill is going to eat some of 187 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 3: these guys alive if it's windy with that one round 188 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 3: on Thursday or Friday. So I can't wait because I 189 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 3: love carnage. I love watching the best golfers in the 190 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 3: world go around a little seven thousand yard course and 191 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 3: struggle like it's going to be struggle us for everybody 192 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 3: this week, and I do think that we might see 193 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,839 Speaker 3: a winning score somewhere around ten under par, a lot 194 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 3: toer than a year's past, because signature event means two things. 195 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 3: It means that you get the better golfers, and it 196 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 3: also means that they're not going to mow that rough 197 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 3: like they have in years past. 198 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: So yeah, defending champions. I believe Justin Rose, and he 199 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: is in the field this week, although at longer odds. 200 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,839 Speaker 1: Anything else that jumps out to you about this event 201 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 1: bo anything about the course, the format. 202 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 3: I love the dropping of Monterey Peninsula. Back when I 203 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 3: was a kid, my dad took me to this tournament 204 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 3: and I got to see Vja Saying and Phil Nicholson 205 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 3: and all those guys shrudgs around Spyglass and struggle mightily. 206 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 3: Pebble Beach struggle mightily, and back in those days, Poppy 207 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 3: Hills was the third course. And then they switched to 208 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 3: Monterrey Peninsula Country Club, which I think is just a 209 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 3: trash course. It's not even worthy of a Mini Tour event, honestly, 210 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 3: compared to all the other courses in that region. They 211 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 3: could play Bannett Black Course, they can play all these 212 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 3: other amazing courses within twenty minute drive, all of Pebble Beach, 213 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 3: and they chose Monterrey Peninsula Country Club for no reason. 214 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 3: I don't understand it. So I'm happy they dropped that. 215 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 3: It's just Spyglass and Pebble Beech, which are right next 216 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 3: to each other. They're on the same road, and they 217 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 3: are both brutally difficult in when the conditions get a 218 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 3: little moist, which is going to be the case this week. 219 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 3: I love it. I'm excited to see another long shot winner. 220 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 3: I'm going to be throwing some dark ones up this week. 221 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: All right, Well, we will get to the odds in 222 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: just a moment, But first go sign yourself up with 223 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 1: our friends at Underdog, where you can make picks on 224 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: your favorite golfers all season long.

As of Monday afternoon, Rory McElroy, 239 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: playing in his first PGA Tour event of twenty twenty four, 240 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: was the favorite at plus seven fifty on DraftKings. Then 241 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,079 Speaker 1: we have Scotti Scheffler at plus eight fifty, Xanderschoffley and 242 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 1: Victor Hovland at plus twelve hundred, Patrick Cantley, Maxhoma and 243 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 1: Jordan Speith at plus eighteen hundred, Colin Morikawa at plus 244 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: two thousand, Ludwig Obert and Justin Thomas at plus twenty 245 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: five hundred and Matthew Fitzpatrick at plus three thousand. 246 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 2: Anyone you like from this group bo well. 247 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 3: Naturally, if you run any statistical model on a second 248 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 3: shot golf course such as Pebble Beach or even Spyglass, 249 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 3: they're both pretty similar. Where driving distance matters zero percent. 250 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,319 Speaker 3: We're looking at guys who can get close on approach 251 00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 3: from short to mid range approach distances, and you're aiming 252 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 3: for postage stamps, so another correlation to around the green game. 253 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 3: So naturally you're going to find that Rory, Scotty and 254 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 3: Xander pop up at the very top, along with Victor Hovland. 255 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 3: That's no surprise there as far as what I like 256 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 3: to see is success on polled greens, which goes beyond 257 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 3: just putting. It's putting, it's chipping. If all the things 258 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 3: put together, strokes gained from tea to green. Xanderschoffley is 259 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 3: the one I like the most, and I like that 260 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 3: his odds are better than ten to one instead of 261 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 3: Rory and Scotty, who honestly are just too short. I'm 262 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 3: the kind of golf better where if I'm getting less 263 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 3: than ten to one payout for an outright winner. I 264 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 3: want a guy who actually does well on these types 265 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 3: of courses. Rory with these short approach distances shaky at 266 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 3: best throughout the last couple of years. Scotty Scheffler. Of course, 267 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 3: it models out amazing here because he's the best approach 268 00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 3: player in the world. He's a great off the tee 269 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 3: player is around the green game is really good too. However, 270 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 3: last time we saw him at Pebble Beach he missed 271 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 3: the cut, so that doesn't tell me that he's going 272 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 3: to be overly confident in his chances to win this week. 273 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 3: He very well could. He's the best golfer in the 274 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 3: world overall. But I'm going to start with Xander Schoffley 275 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 3: at twelve to one because he fits the course the best. 276 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 3: His approach game, short distances is around, the green game 277 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 3: is impeccable, and of course he's one of the best 278 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 3: putters on POA in the world. 279 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 2: I'm with you, Baul. 280 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: I don't want to bet anyone shorter than ten to 281 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: one in a feel this good. It's just the price 282 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: is not right, and I think Xander Schoffley is probably 283 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: a good place to start. Looking at top players. Jordan 284 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: Spiefbow really good at track record here. He has finished 285 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: top ten in this event in six of the last 286 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: ten years, including a win in twenty seventeen and a 287 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: second in twenty twenty two. In his only other PGA 288 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: Tour start this year, he finished third at the Century 289 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 1: in Hawaii. Was in good form there and bo on 290 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 1: this course on Pebble Beach, he can put away that 291 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 1: balky driver And I really, I mean that definitely interests 292 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: me in Jordan Speith, Yeah, I. 293 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 3: Can't agree more. This is Jordan Speed's golf course. If 294 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 3: he can survive his eighteen holes at Spyglass, which are 295 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 3: tree lined, and even if you're taking a long iron 296 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 3: off the tea to find the fair way, you can 297 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 3: find some trouble there. But if he can survive Spyglass 298 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 3: on that first or one or two rounds there, then 299 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 3: the Pebble Beach thing, he just loves it there. He's 300 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 3: a perfect fit. His short game is so good that 301 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 3: even if he does get a little erratic on approach, 302 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 3: this guy can ship in from anywhere. As far as 303 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 3: putting goes. He knows Poe greens very well. He's always 304 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 3: done well in California despite being a Texas native. This 305 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 3: might be the one place where I would say Jordan 306 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 3: Speed is a lock to be top ten and have 307 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 3: a very good run at winning out right. 308 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you mentioned there there are a few Parkland 309 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: style holes on Spyglass, and if he can stay out 310 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: of trouble there, he should be in pretty good shape. 311 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:22,160 Speaker 1: Patrick Cantley his last three appearances here eleventh, third, and fourth. 312 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: Although Cantlay has not been in good form the last 313 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: couple of weeks, he played the last two events and 314 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 1: did not crack the top fifty in either. So no 315 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: interest in a guy who's coming in with no steam 316 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: at albow. 317 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 3: There's still some interest because he again has a great 318 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 3: track record here short game putting. This guy's just so 319 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 3: good around the greens that you can't really count him out. 320 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 3: I just don't know that he's going to be able 321 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 3: to survive among all these other top rate golfers When 322 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,439 Speaker 3: we see cantly, when it's kind of when he's the 323 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 3: top dog and everybody kind of expects him to be there, 324 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 3: I don't think very many people expect him to hang 325 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 3: with all these other top golfers in this field, and 326 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 3: he kind of shrinks under pressure. I think the top 327 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,479 Speaker 3: fifty thing the last couple of weeks is because he 328 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 3: might still be playing those rounds. He's one of the 329 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 3: slowest paced golfers in the world, and it seems to 330 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 3: get into his head even more when it comes down 331 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 3: to Saturday, Sunday, Moving Day Sunday. If he's not if 332 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 3: he's under pressure, then I know he's not going to 333 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 3: win because he takes even more time and he psychs 334 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 3: himself out. So yeah, you can bet him top ten, 335 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 3: but I'm not going to bet him out right at all. 336 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: On the bright side, the slower pace of play with 337 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: the amateurs on Thursday and Friday probably won't bother can't 338 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 1: lay at all considering come on, you know, when the 339 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: amateurs are asking can't lay to play faster, it's tough. 340 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: And then there's Max Homa, another Native Californian. Hasn't played 341 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: here since twenty twenty one, but in his last three 342 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 1: appearances at the eighteen Pebble Beach Pro Am, he's finished tenth, fourteenth, 343 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: and seventh. 344 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 2: Any interest in Homer, Yes. 345 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 3: He's another guy that is good, but not He's not 346 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 3: a top tier golfer for me. He's like the next 347 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 3: tier down. I'd put him kind of behind the Colin 348 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,439 Speaker 3: Morrikawa's of the world, even even Justin Thomas, who's getting 349 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 3: shorter odds than I expected. I would favor in a 350 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:29,639 Speaker 3: place like this over Max Oma. He's a fine player, 351 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 3: I just don't know that he has that elite upside 352 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 3: that I'm looking for to place a bed in that range. 353 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 3: If he was closer to thirty five or forty with 354 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 3: v Now and Fleetwood and Sung Jay, then yeah, sure, 355 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 3: that's that's fine because Home is a good, really good golfer. 356 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,199 Speaker 3: But I just don't know that piece that if he 357 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 3: earned his eighteen to one once this week. 358 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: Now, if you want a chance to win a free 359 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: one year premium Betting Pro subscription, you need to subscribe 360 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: to the Betting Pros YouTube channel right now.

Bow We've got 368 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: Tommy Fleetwood, Sung JM. Sam Burns, Ben On and Cameron 369 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 1: Young at plus thirty five hundred. At plus four thousand, 370 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 1: we have JT. Postin and my guy, Nikolai Hogard, and 371 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: then we've got Tom Kim and Jason Day at plus 372 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 1: forty five hundred, and at plus five thousand we have 373 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 1: Russell Henley and Eric Cole, who jumps out to you 374 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 1: from this group. 375 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 3: Bo Surprisingly, JT Postin is the one that screens off 376 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 3: the top of the page. Like as soon as I 377 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 3: ran my first couple models, JT Postin was up near 378 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 3: the top, and as I kept running it, he kept 379 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 3: popping up. And so everybody else in this range is 380 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 3: really good. I don't know if this kind of type 381 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 3: of setup is going to suit Hoguard scheme. I really 382 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 3: have doubts about that, But as far as a course 383 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 3: fit and everything that we're looking for, JT post In 384 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 3: with a little bit of Tom Kim sprinkled in. Surprisingly, 385 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 3: I was surprised to see him pop up in my modeling, 386 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 3: but not too high. But JT. Postin is the one 387 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 3: that really stood out to me, and he's going to 388 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 3: be the one that I ride at forty to one. 389 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 1: Tom Kim debuting here I believe unless I'm mistaken. 390 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, so. 391 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: Posting like we're doue with him, Paul, I mean, we've 392 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 1: been liking him for a while now, and like you're, 393 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: are you confident that his skill at putting is not 394 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,640 Speaker 1: going to be in any way negated by the POA greens, 395 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: which can be so I don't know, bumpy and random 396 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: on some of the shorter pots, No, I really don't. 397 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,880 Speaker 3: I don't think that's gonna be a factor for him 398 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 3: because a lot of those putts are shorter, Like you 399 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 3: mentioned twenty five percent on a fifteen foot putt. I 400 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 3: mean that's just because Pebble Beach is difficult. Everything slopes 401 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 3: towards the ocean, even if it looks like it's sloping 402 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 3: the opposite way towards the inland side. Then it goes 403 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 3: towards the ocean. As long as you can read where 404 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 3: the putts are breaking. The bumpiness doesn't really take you 405 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 3: off of your line. It just says, hey, I'm going 406 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,199 Speaker 3: to play some mind games on you. Because it's along 407 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 3: the whole line, you're going to see the ball oscillate 408 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 3: on its way to the whole I don't think that 409 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 3: it really affects anybody that much. Other than just the 410 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 3: mental aspect of trusting your line when you when you're 411 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 3: when you're setting up your putt, this guy can put 412 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 3: his brains off. The JT post in his approach game 413 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,679 Speaker 3: is around the green game, his his putting overall, and 414 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 3: just like you said to Speed is just take that 415 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 3: driver out of the bag. You have a bunch of 416 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 3: forced layoffs layups on these two courses. Just hit the 417 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 3: ball in the fairway, make a solid approach shot, and 418 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 3: start making some pots. And as far as everything that 419 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 3: I'm considering this week, JT Poston is in the top 420 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 3: five of all of that in this entire field. 421 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 2: Now here's any interesting case. Jason Day. 422 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: In his last eight trips here, dating back to twenty 423 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: fifteen ball, he's finished in the top eleven seven times, 424 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 1: seven of eight top eleven finishes. But last week at 425 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: Torrey Pines, a place where he's had a pretty good 426 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: track record, he missed the freaking cut. What do we 427 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: make of him this week at Yeah, like reasonable odds 428 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: plus forty five hundred. 429 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 3: Yeah. Unfortunately, his approach game has been miserable in the 430 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 3: last four months, and so I'm off of him completely 431 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 3: because stroke skiined on approach, especially in the distances where 432 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 3: we really count it here between one hundred and twenty 433 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,199 Speaker 3: five one hundred and fifty yards, Jason Day is outside 434 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 3: the top fifty in this field, and that's not good enough. 435 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 3: And the way, the way he's playing now is his 436 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 3: strengths are not going to be amplified on this course, 437 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,919 Speaker 3: and his weaknesses certainly will be so as well. As well. 438 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 3: As Jason Day has played here in the past, his 439 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 3: recent form gives me a lot of concern, especially in 440 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 3: the field of this caliber. And I'm happy to say 441 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 3: that there is good news is you don't have to 442 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 3: play him in the one and done anymore. He used 443 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:26,159 Speaker 3: him already. He missed the cut when you counted on 444 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 3: him the most. 445 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 2: Brutal, just brutal. 446 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,160 Speaker 1: Thanks for the salt and the wound there, Bo, appreciate it. 447 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: A nice shaker full of Morton right in there. A 448 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 1: longer shot and long shots at the at and t 449 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 1: Pebably each pro am tell me about the guys who 450 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 1: interest you at plus fifty five hundred or longer odds. 451 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 3: And Deki Matsuyama here sixty to one odds is an insult. 452 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 3: It's an absolute insult. This guy plays well here all 453 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 3: the time. He's playing out of his mind hot it 454 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 3: was awesome last week. Just didn't have a enough to win. 455 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 3: This guy just with an iron in his hand. An 456 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 3: iron player is so pure, His around the green game 457 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 3: is so pure. If he can find a putting stroke 458 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 3: that works for him on this course, we could see 459 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 3: a very very quick ascent to the top of the 460 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 3: leaderboard for Hideki Matsiama sixty to one. For the way 461 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 3: he's playing, it doesn't make any sense at all. 462 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: What about Bo Hostler at fifty five to one. He'd 463 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 1: a good week at Torry Pines last week, finishing in 464 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 1: a tie for sixth, and in his last two trips 465 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: to Pebble Beach third and eleventh. 466 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's He's definitely on my mind here. I don't 467 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,719 Speaker 3: mind betting in top ten at five to one, but 468 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 3: I don't think he has the choice to make a 469 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:44,120 Speaker 3: makeup outright run here. 470 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 1: What about what about Kevin yu so the he's plus 471 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 1: eight thousand, eighty to one. He's on a heater top 472 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: six finishes in each of the last two weeks, and 473 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 1: he finished seven at Pebble Beach last year. 474 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, this guy's an absolute stripe show out 475 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 3: there from tee to green, and he's really fun to watch. 476 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 3: He's also an extremely bad putter, and where he was 477 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 3: so close to the hole last week at Torrey Pines, 478 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 3: we didn't really care that he was missing a lot 479 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,439 Speaker 3: of birdie putts, and that's what killed him at the 480 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 3: end of the at the end of the tournament was 481 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 3: the fact that he couldn't make enough birdies to justify 482 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 3: those great approach shots and incredible drives. This is he's 483 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 3: Tony fenow Light. Basically, he's going to make a lot 484 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 3: of birdies. He's also going to shoot himself on the 485 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 3: foot many times, especially when this tournament's going to be 486 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 3: set up quite a bit different than it has in 487 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 3: years past. Just layout wise, Pebble Beach has got a 488 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 3: lot of teeth. Sagra Spyglass has even more teeth. I 489 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 3: don't know that he's in that quite there where eighty 490 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 3: to one makes sense for me. I have a guy 491 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 3: Chris Kirk right there at the same number that I'd 492 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 3: much rather play. 493 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 1: What if I told you, Bo you could get the 494 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 1: defending champion at ninety to one, and he is a 495 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: longtime international star. Justin Rose does that interest you at all, not. 496 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 3: On the betting ticket. I think it's such a different 497 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 3: tournament than it was last year that honestly, he was 498 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,919 Speaker 3: almost the class of that tournament last year. I think 499 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 3: he was thirty to one odds going out last year 500 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 3: when he won. So this is a whole different animal. 501 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 3: Rose kind of he kind of hung around at Torrey 502 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 3: Pines for me and my DFS lineups that I had 503 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 3: with him in there. The dude is just he's solid. 504 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 3: But again, this whole odds making thing is if I'm 505 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 3: taking a shot on a guy, I want him to 506 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 3: make some noise. I just don't see it. I just 507 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 3: don't see the upside with Justin Rose in a field 508 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 3: this strong. 509 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, recent form has not been good. He has not 510 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: been sniffing the leaderboard in his first few events of 511 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,439 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, so I can totally understand that.

I did start with Xander and then I go 525 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 3: a little Jordan speF Jordan Speed, I'm gonna bet a 526 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 3: trifecta on outright top five and top ten because I 527 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 3: have a feeling he's gonna he's just gonna dominate here 528 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 3: the way he has in years past. I'm going JT 529 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 3: postin Chris Kirk and I have two long shots. Lucas 530 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 3: Glover at one hundred and fifty to one popped up 531 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 3: number two in my model. Overall, this dude is nails 532 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 3: in all the right places for this type of golf course. 533 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 3: And as long as he can make any putts at all, 534 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 3: this guy's going to be dialed in on approach. He's 535 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 3: really accurate off the tee. It's just everything I'm looking 536 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 3: for he hits all the boxes there, and then Sam 537 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 3: Ryder at three hundred to one. I'm going to take 538 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 3: a few shots. 539 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: At Yeah, long odds on a pretty good player. So 540 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: I like Spieth outright at plus eighteen hundred. You might 541 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: be able to talk me into the win place and 542 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: show their bet their bow. I am going to take 543 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: hoguard and ride the wave here at plus four thousand. 544 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: I'm also going to take him to finish top five 545 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: at plus nine hundred. We'll see a pebble. 546 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 3: Fits, but that'll be a nice data. 547 00:29:58,280 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 2: That would be. 548 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: And then I'm going to put down smallish outrights on 549 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: Bo Hostler at fifty five to one, Kevin You at 550 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: eighty to one, and you know what both Justin Rose 551 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 1: at ninety to one. I'm interested in those odds for 552 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: the defending champion and just for you bowl. I think 553 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 1: I might bet Kurt Kitty Yama to finish top five 554 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: at plus eighteen hundred. Yeah, just pretty good odds for 555 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: a top five finish, a photo finish for a guy 556 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: who's a good player playing close to the home. 557 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 3: Mentioned somebody from NorCal in this whole thing, because that's right. 558 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 3: I will try to let me. Obviously, Chico and Monterey 559 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 3: are what three and a half hours away, it's a 560 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 3: pretty big state. But one thing about Kittyama that turned 561 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,959 Speaker 3: me off of him was that his form at Sawgrass 562 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 3: and Pillow Beats were a lot worse than his form 563 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 3: at Monterey Peninsula. He was being killed Monterey Peninsula. And 564 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 3: of course that course is no longer in this event, 565 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 3: so we'll see. But I mean I'll root for him. 566 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 3: I reform every time he's in the field. 567 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 2: Now let's get to our one and done picks bow. 568 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: Any momentum I might have had with Adam hadwin six 569 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: plays finished two weeks ago, snuffed out by Jason Day, who, 570 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: as we mentioned before, missed the cut. Gave me a 571 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 1: big fat zero. You went big with Xander Schoffley. He 572 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: paid off solidly with a tie for ninth good for 573 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: two one hundred and thirty six thousand dollars two thirty 574 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: six and two fifty. So that pushes you well over 575 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: the million dollar mark for the season. I think you're 576 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: at about one point one million. I'm at about three 577 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: hundred and eighty thousand, so yeah, I've got some ground 578 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: to make up. I pick first. I am gonna go 579 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,719 Speaker 1: with Max Homa. Bo, I want to get him in California. 580 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: We're running out of chances. It's either here or at 581 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: the Genesis in a couple of weeks, and I've got 582 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 1: some other Genesis specialists I've got my eye on for 583 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 1: that one. So yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna take the 584 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: California boy, Max Oma. 585 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 3: How about you, Bo, I'm surprised that you're not saving 586 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 3: him for Riviera because that's a lot better fit for 587 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 3: him in my opinion. I'm going to go with Jordan 588 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 3: Speed because he owns Doubble Beach and I really don't 589 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 3: trust him as far as I could throw him on 590 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 3: any other golf course, maybe except for the window, but 591 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 3: it's similar course structure. The short courses. They demand good 592 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 3: approach game and an amazing short game. Let me go 593 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 3: Jordan Speed because I have a feeling I don't want 594 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 3: to use him the rest of the year anyway. 595 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 1: There are a couple of places where I trust Jordan Speith. 596 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 1: I've thought about this and you know it is, but 597 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: I can't argue with him, and I want and done 598 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: here like this is a good spot too. 599 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 3: So it's appeeling for me because it's a win win. 600 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 3: I think he's going to be fine overall, no chance 601 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 3: of missing the cut, and I I have a hard 602 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 3: time believing that he's going to be out of contention. 603 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: All right, So Max Olma for me, Jordan Speed for Bo, 604 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: and that's going to do it for us this week. 605 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 1: I want to thank once again our sponsor, Underdog.
