00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: the Zurich Classic, which you know, I thought it was

14
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,319
Speaker 1: gonna be a little more exciting. Turned out it wasn't

15
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 1: a great viewing experience. Uh Xander Patrick Cantley one which

16
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: if you put two Ryder Cups in a team of

17
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: two Ryder Cup members in the team event, they should win,

18
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: and they kind of did easily, And the team that

19
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: finished second was easily the second best team. I guess Hoflmrekala,

20
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: But uh yeah, so that not much to say. There

21
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: a lot going on. You know Tiger and Phil Now

22
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 1: it looks like they're gonna do the PJA Championship, the

23
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: US Open, a lot of live golf. The Siddy thing

24
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 1: is not only not going away, is happening. We have

25
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: some official news that fifteen top one hundred players in

26
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: the world are joining up with Greg Norman and Michelson

27
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: and the live experience. Now we don't have names yet,

28
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: but it's pretty clear it's gonna be the west Woods,

29
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: the Adam Scott's, the Kevinnas. I think co crack so

30
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: I have a couple of thoughts there. Jason sobol As

31
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 1: I call and Mr Golf joins us. Uh we talk.

32
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 1: We dive into some of those topics as well. So

33
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 1: um yeah, go low Pod. Also the Instagram account. Fire

34
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: into those direct messages. Ask any golf question you would like.

35
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: My golf game right now sucks. I need to go

36
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: to the range a little later to day and and

37
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 1: and work on some things. I am in shambles, but

38
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: this is not about me. This is about professional golf.

39
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 1: So again, gol Pod, fire up in those d m s,

40
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: get your question answers. In the show, we separate my

41
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: my personal Instagram mainly just life questions and football questions,

42
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 1: and then we do the golf one that is just golf.

43
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: You canna do life one there too. We we we

44
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 1: can talk whatever we want, but I wanted to start

45
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: with Tiger Phil. Looks like they're gonna be in the

46
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: PGA Championship. Obviously Phil is the defending champion, and it

47
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 1: looks like Tiger now is gonna play all the majors,

48
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: which is cool because, let's face it, when he got

49
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: in the car accident, you know one, I think we

50
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: thought he was gonna die for a little bit, and

51
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: then when we thought his lego was gonna get amputated,

52
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 1: we never out we're gonna see him again. So ever

53
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: since we saw him with Charlie in the fall, it's

54
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: just good to have him back. And if we get

55
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: him four times a year for the next five or

56
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: six years, that's incredible. I think the Masters was just

57
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: inspirational watching him. But I think the story is gonna

58
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 1: be filed. He's obviously defending champion and it's now basically

59
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: unofficially official. The dude's going to say the Saty League

60
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: and he's gonna be the star for the league. I mean,

61
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: he is easily the front man and they're gonna own teams.

62
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 1: Me and SO will talk about this. The money that

63
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: is a part of this league every person is twenty

64
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: million dollars. The final tournament the winner the group gets

65
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 1: I think sixteen million. The final purses fifty million. The

66
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: money is enormous. And here's the reality. And I I

67
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: try not to get on my moral high horse about

68
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: things because I think it's so easy, especially with people

69
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 1: and blue check marks on social media Instagram and Twitter

70
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: love to pound their trust. As a as a morally

71
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: superior person, I don't pretend to be at all because

72
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 1: I understand that money usually is the deciding factor for

73
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: the majority of humans when it comes to professional stuff.

74
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: And the Bank of America, Wells Fargo, JP Morgan, wherever

75
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 1: you bank will accept the Saudis cash. So the money

76
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: is no different than the check you will get from

77
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 1: the PGA tour. Now who you're getting it from different

78
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: going into business with the Saudis. But here's a simple reality.

79
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: With Phil Mickelson, he could have easily gone off into

80
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 1: the sunset after winning that PGA Championship, been a Ryder

81
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: Cup captain, been a President Cup captain, been paid for

82
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: till his dying days by callaway by the corporations like

83
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: KPMG Workday. Now, maybe those corporations changed, but he would

84
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:55,159
Speaker 1: have been on the payroll from major corporations forever. He

85
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: would have made millions of dollars, even long after he

86
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: couldn't break seventy five. He would have maintained basically a

87
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: retirement cash cout from these people, on top of his

88
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 1: own retirement from all the money he's made from the

89
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 1: PGA Tour, which has the best retirement out of any

90
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 1: of the professional sports leagues. Money was never gonna be

91
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 1: an issue for him long term. But I've been told

92
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 1: this about Phil and obviously a lot of people have

93
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: read this and heard this. He always thinks he's the

94
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,359
Speaker 1: smartest guy in the room, which he's not the first thing.

95
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 1: He won't be the last to have that, you know,

96
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: I would say motto or be viewed with that kind

97
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: of mindset. But I do think he is for a

98
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,239
Speaker 1: guy that has achieved a lot, that there is there's

99
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 1: a burning desire to always do more. And I actually

100
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: think a lot of great successful people in any industry

101
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: struggle to turn it off. They struggled, like I know,

102
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: the word retirement gives me anxiety. Now I podcast, I

103
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 1: talk about sports. I could do this forever. Phil can

104
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: play golf literally till he can't walk. Phil's never thought

105
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 1: about retirement. He probably hates that fucking word. Well, a

106
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 1: lot of people that enjoy what they do don't ever

107
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: plan on retirement. And listen, like, let's face it, Phil

108
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: is a big picture thinker. He knows like he's no dummy.

109
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: He was never gonna make any more big money on

110
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: the PGA Tour. Those days were over. The PGA Championship

111
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,479
Speaker 1: was somewhat of the one off. Now, maybe he could

112
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: compete at the Masters, but the weekend week out PGA tournaments,

113
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: he was done. We literally saw it. For the like

114
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: four years leading up to his his major win. He

115
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: was not very good. He was struggling to hang on

116
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: in the champions Tour, which he played in a couple

117
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 1: events he kind of won easily. I would imagine that boredom.

118
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: Now I'm not listen. He had so much money. He

119
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 1: didn't need to do this. He had spent his entire

120
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 1: life building up this reputation of being this good guy,

121
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 1: being this corporate sponsor, and he had spent basically thirty

122
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 1: years developing this, and he's thrown away because once he

123
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 1: does this, the sponsors are never coming back, once he

124
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: goes all in on the Saudis. But I do believe

125
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,600
Speaker 1: deep down in his core whether he's you know, we're

126
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: gonna find out if he's right or wrong. He's a

127
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: trailblazer here because as Adam Scott and Westwood and co

128
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: Crack and naw and some Poulter and you could Sergio,

129
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: they might Bee has beens whatever. As they go and

130
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: they make bookoo dollars. They make Patrick Mahomes Steph Curry

131
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: money on a tour with not that much competition. Other

132
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: people will eventually follow if this tour sustains. And here's

133
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: a reality with the Saudis. They have an unlimited amount

134
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: of money. The profit is not the end goal here.

135
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: The goal is to promote positive pub for their governments.

136
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 1: So they don't give a ship. They can spend hundreds

137
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: of millions up to billions. Govin Greg Norman said they

138
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: have three billion dollars. They're just gonna blow through. They

139
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: do not care. And so when people see these guys

140
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: making stupid money, I think other people are gonna follow.

141
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: So maybe fill deep down to his Court thinks he's

142
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: gonna be a trailblazer here, and he's gonna be a

143
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: rich trailblazer. It's one thing when you blow a career

144
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: on a startup that doesn't have that much money or

145
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: doesn't have a future. He knows he's got the cash

146
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: here now, whether you agree or disagree with it, like

147
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 1: money is gonna flow now. We could argue a guy

148
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: that's made seven eight nine million dollars with tons of

149
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: money still coming, if he had just stayed on the

150
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 1: status quo, why do you need to do this? Fills

151
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 1: not a status quo guy. That's not the way he's wired.

152
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: The reality is with Tiger and like he couldn't be

153
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: bought Yeah, he got bought back in nine seven. Tiger

154
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: is worth like five hundred million dollars by the time

155
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: he was twenty five years old. Tiger is so fucking

156
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 1: rich it's stupid, Like Fils wealthy, Tiger blows that away.

157
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: They're not even in the same bullpark and they're the

158
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,719
Speaker 1: two richest golfers in the history of the sport. So

159
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: I I do think it's gonna be fascinating. But as

160
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,599
Speaker 1: you saw this weekend, like Kent Leonsander Here's why I

161
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a struggle to get the top

162
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 1: fifteen twenty American guys to come. They both made like

163
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: a million and a half dollars winning that tournament. I

164
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,079
Speaker 1: say this all the time about the PGA Tour. We're

165
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 1: going through this in the Bay Area with Deebo Samuel.

166
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: I think a big point of contention why Deebo wants

167
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: to trade he doesn't want to live in the Bay Area.

168
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: Don't totally blame him. I don't align with a lot

169
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 1: of things around here either, especially when it comes to taxes,

170
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: demos from the South. He didn't choose to live here.

171
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: He was drafted. All these professional athletes in baseball, basketball,

172
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 1: and football. Unless you become a free agent, you don't

173
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: get to determine where you live. You're constantly getting traded.

174
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 1: Professional golf, you literally can live wherever you want. It's

175
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: why the majority of the golfers all live in three

176
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: or four states Arizona, Nevada, Texas, and Florida, and some

177
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 1: in Georgia because a lot of them are from there.

178
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: But I bet of the American guys live in those

179
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 1: four five states. They get to choose where they live

180
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 1: and then on top of that, they get to choose

181
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,839
Speaker 1: when they play. Now, unlike Saddi, it's harder to make

182
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: money on the PGA Tour because you have to excel

183
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: to get paid. If you're paying me twenty million dollars

184
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 1: a year to play for the Lakers, whether I play well,

185
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: play poorly, get injured, it does not matter. I'm getting

186
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 1: my money. If the forty Niners pay me seven million

187
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 1: dollars and it's guaranteed, I'm getting that money. Whether I

188
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: catch a touchdown, sacked the quarterback, break my leg, it

189
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. That's not the case with golf. So as

190
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 1: if this money is truly and these guys don't talk

191
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: to each other, you don't think if you were friendly

192
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: with Sergio and he went and did this, and then

193
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you're reading he just made eleven

194
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: million dollars. Scottie Scheffler has won four tournaments in basically

195
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 1: like sixty days. He's made ten million dollars. Wait till

196
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: one of these guys makes ten million dollars in like

197
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 1: three tournaments and they don't even win it. It's gonna

198
00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: open eyebrows, it's gonna move the needle, and it'll be

199
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: interesting to wear. This goes over the next couple of

200
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: years because, as I told Sobel, a lot of us

201
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: kind of danced on the grave of the Live Golf.

202
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 1: A lot of us thought that it wasn't gonna work

203
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 1: and it would never come through. Well, whether house, I

204
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: don't know where you're gonna watch it, but it's not

205
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: going away. It's it's happening. And I watched the thirty

206
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: for thirty with Greg Norman. I highly recommend it. It's

207
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: a fascinating watch. And I was thinking watching it, like

208
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,719
Speaker 1: you know, a big narrative is just with a casual guy.

209
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 1: Remember when golfers were just fat asses. All the guys

210
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: on the PGA Tour were just fat, lumpy guys that

211
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 1: drank beer. And then you're watching the best players from

212
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 1: early even earlier than that, like the early eighties to

213
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,319
Speaker 1: the mid to late nineties were Greg Norman and Nick Faldo.

214
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 1: Those guys are like six four two ten in good shape.

215
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: I mean Greg Norman still to this day looks fantastic

216
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 1: now watching that, I also had to take of, like,

217
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: you know, Greg Norman's camp in modern day golf now

218
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 1: they are nothing alike. DJ feels very likable but DJ

219
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 1: and Greg Norman feels somewhat similar. Like when I look

220
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: at DJ's career, it feels like you should have five majors.

221
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: When you look at Greg Norman's career, he should have

222
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: five or six majors. Greg Norman is like, I think,

223
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 1: six or seventh all time in seconds in majors. Every

224
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: other guy on that list, Jack Nicholas, Phil Micholson, Sam Snead,

225
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: Tom Watson, all of them six seven plus majors. Yeah,

226
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: Greg Norman's on that list with these guys only is

227
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 1: the two Now. Part of it is he lost multiple majors,

228
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: multiple majors in extra holes on Chippin's obviously the one

229
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: to Larry Mice on Whle eleven, which is pretty nuts.

230
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 1: And then in the PGA Championship, I think it was

231
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: like eighty seven or eighty six. I forget the date,

232
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: forget even the guy to beat him, and I don't

233
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 1: even remember the name. But his career is pretty fascinating.

234
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 1: It is a fantastic watch, it really is. Nick Faldo

235
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: was a killer. He I don't think he's very good

236
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: on TV, but I'll never dispute or not acknowledge that

237
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 1: he's one of the greatest championship golfers we've ever seen.

238
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: The dude was elite like the dude was a special,

239
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: special player. Now Greg Norman a little like Phil also

240
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 1: thinks he's the smartest guy in the room. Huge ego,

241
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: big narcissist, all into himself. But it'll be interesting, like

242
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: if he can get some big name guys to go

243
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 1: over the next couple of years and if the if

244
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 1: the checks are cashing, I promise you we will because

245
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 1: money talks and ship walks. So this live golf, um,

246
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: it's just not going away. I don't really have many

247
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 1: takes this on this Mexico Open this weekend. Uh, you know,

248
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: I think it doesn't do that much for me. I

249
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 1: might throw a little cash on the Gala, maybe a

250
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: little on Woodland, just because I've been riding them all

251
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,199
Speaker 1: year long. But I do think that it's gonna after

252
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: the Masters, there's a little bit of adult d RUMs.

253
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: I feel like in the season. To me, next week

254
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: it starts picking up a little bit. Wells Fargo, Rory's

255
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: the defending champ, then you got the Byron Nelson, then

256
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: you got the PGA Championship. Than just a couple of weeks,

257
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 1: you know, in early June. You got the Memorial, then

258
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: you have the U S Open, so I I think

259
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna start picking it back up, but no realist.

260
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,200

301
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: we're getting there. I mean maybe, And you know I've

302
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 1: said this throughout the last couple of days, but the

303
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: PJS were really fixed the schedule. They had some some

304
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: major issues with the schedule a few years ago. I like, fact,

305
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 1: the major championships are now streamline. We've got starting with

306
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 1: the players. You call it a major, call it not

307
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: a major. I say it's not a major in any case.

308
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: It's a big event that starts in March. Then we've

309
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: got four straight months with a major championship, and then

310
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: we end the season before football starts, the way this

311
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 1: was supposed to be fifteen years ago, sixteen years ago

312
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 1: when the thing first started. So they've gotten the big

313
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 1: issues out of the way. Now we start kind of

314
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 1: chipping away, like there might be some little nitpicking here

315
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: and there, and this might be a week and I

316
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 1: know we're gonna talk a little bit about Mexico Open,

317
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: but there is nobody other than John rob in the

318
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: field this week, and maybe start picking away and on

319
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: how can we fix sort of this time in between

320
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: the major championships. What do we do? Does it need

321
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: fixing or not? I gave this take actually a couple

322
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: of weeks ago. I had some people shooting in my

323
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,400
Speaker 1: d M s that I was crazy. I don't think

324
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: the difference of being a Players Champion and having a

325
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: p G A championship if it just one. Obviously if

326
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 1: you win multiple, but just the one is that big

327
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 1: of a gap relative to the Open, the US Open,

328
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 1: the Masters, depending on you know, if you're from over there,

329
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 1: obviously the Open is really important if you're American, maybe

330
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 1: the US Open the Masters is universal. Is that fair?

331
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 1: I mean, were there some guys that would say the

332
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 1: Player isn't that big of a game? Like Ricky's Players

333
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 1: and J T. S PGA Championship. You see a huge

334
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: gap between those two wins. Technically, No, technically, the Players

335
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: Championship has a better field every year, and so you

336
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,400
Speaker 1: can argue that, hey, playing the same course every year.

337
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: It's an iconic venue. We all know it because we

338
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 1: see in every single March and the fact that you're

339
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: beating a better field every year, maybe it can mean more,

340
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 1: but it's just the fact that we call the PGA

341
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 1: Championship a major. So yeah, I mean, I don't know,

342
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,880
Speaker 1: I'm trying to associate it with something else. You run

343
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,360
Speaker 1: track and field, and you might be a better field

344
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,879
Speaker 1: at the whatever games they have. I don't know that

345
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 1: they played the such and such games in New York

346
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 1: City or whatever they do every single year. That might

347
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: be a better field, and you've won a better event

348
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,439
Speaker 1: and you feel better about beating that competition. But if

349
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 1: you win a gold medal at the Olympics, that's all

350
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 1: anyone's gonna know you for. And so it's bigger than that.

351
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 1: So I look at the same way. It's major championship.

352
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: Winning a major is bigger than winning the players, even

353
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: if winning the players maybe takes a little bit more.

354
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,439
Speaker 1: Maybe there's a better field, maybe there's uh, you know,

355
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 1: it's it's a little tougher to win on the same

356
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,439
Speaker 1: golf course every year. Yeah, that kind of stuff before

357
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 1: we get into uh, this tournament, this weekend. There was

358
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,439
Speaker 1: obviously some live stuff, but before that, Greg Norman had

359
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: made some headlines of trying to get into the Open Championship. Obviously,

360
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 1: the rules for the Open Championship, even for a guy

361
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: that has won it before, it cut off a sixty

362
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: years old. He's sixty seven, though he looks better than

363
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: most people like thirty eight right now. I don't know,

364
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,159
Speaker 1: I've seen some pictures that guy is checked. Uh what

365
00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: was your take on just him trying to enter this

366
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 1: was this Saudi his golf league related to try to

367
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 1: gain some momentum. Or is that he's just negomaniac? Look,

368
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 1: I think it's maybe a combination of everything. Greg Norman

369
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: likes the fact that Greg Dorman's name is in the

370
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,199
Speaker 1: headlines at all times, and especially during these times. And

371
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,919
Speaker 1: if this is going to give him a platform of

372
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,399
Speaker 1: seven days at St. Andrew's speaking with the media, talking

373
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: about what he's doing, trying to get his message across

374
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: to the masses and across to other players out there,

375
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: then yeah, why wouldn't he try it? I don't necessarily

376
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 1: blame him for trying. I agree with the R and

377
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: a's decisions, say no, look where we've got enough of

378
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 1: the circus going on. We've got the hundred and fiftie

379
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 1: Open Championship. We don't necessarily need you. They're uh espousing

380
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,919
Speaker 1: all about the virtues of playing golf for a a

381
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabian government that's gonna give these guys, By the way,

382
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:57,160
Speaker 1: just unbelievable amounts of money on John, if you saw

383
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 1: the report, we're gonna get into that. I got. I

384
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: got a couple thoughts. I want to run by it.

385
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 1: But yes, so Greg, Greg likes having Gregg's name out there,

386
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,679
Speaker 1: and that's okay. I mean, look, if you're the CEO

387
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 1: of a major golf tour and aspiring major golf tour,

388
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 1: you should want your name out there everywhere, and you

389
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 1: should inspire to that, and you should be trying to

390
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 1: do these things. But I don't disagree with the decision

391
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 1: from the RNA to say no thanks. Anyway, though, if

392
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 1: he hadn't been involved in this league and it just

393
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 1: had never existed and they're just doing normal stuff and

394
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 1: he was just you know, retired, hanging out being rich,

395
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 1: do you think they might have given in or would

396
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: this have been because they've done certain things before? Right

397
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,640
Speaker 1: with Watson Nicholas, I heard. I mean, if Tiger want

398
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: to do something like this, I'm sure they would let

399
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 1: him do it, right, It's great question, Yeah, I would

400
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 1: think that maybe. I don't know. I mean, he has

401
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,239
Speaker 1: won the tournament twice, right, I mean Tom Watson has

402
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,679
Speaker 1: done it before. Tom Watson's won it five times and

403
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 1: almost one at the age of fifty nine, and uh,

404
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. I think he's probably sort

405
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 1: of the gold standard there. If Tom Watson came back

406
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 1: and said, hey, I want to like, they'd have to

407
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 1: let him in before Greg Norman and so I don't

408
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,919
Speaker 1: know where you drug the line on this kind of stuff.

409
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 1: And you know, I think it's just hypothetical to say

410
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 1: if the Saudi Arabian League, if the Live Golf Investment

411
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 1: League wasn't happening, would they let Greg in. It's a

412
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 1: great question. I don't know. If they let him in,

413
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: Like I said, they gotta let in Watson, then they

414
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 1: gotta let in so and so and then this guy,

415
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, you're taking five spots

416
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 1: away from players who theoretically could get themselves into contention

417
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: for clarent jug. That's not necessarily what they want to

418
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 1: do with their event either, So I don't have a

419
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: great answer. A lot of people and honestly probably including myself,

420
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 1: danced on the grave of the live Facadi thing, you know,

421
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: like a month ago, and now it was reported a

422
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 1: day ago or a couple of days ago. I think

423
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 1: I started with SI dot com that fifteen top one players.

424
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: Now it's been rumors a lot of the older guys.

425
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 1: But the numbers, like you said, twenty million purses per tournament,

426
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 1: fifty million dollar like at the end for the winner.

427
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's like every week is the

428
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 1: players Championship. You know. It sure feels like these old

429
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 1: guys are gonna do it, and the money is the

430
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 1: money's green, and the bank Wells Fargo Bank of America,

431
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 1: if you live in in America, is gonna take the cash.

432
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 1: Is this gonna open the door big picture for years

433
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: to come for maybe some of these younger guys and

434
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 1: Xander Candile just made a ton of money in an

435
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 1: easy turn, Like the top guys are making a ton

436
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:32,479
Speaker 1: of cash, But this feels like even another level of

437
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,160
Speaker 1: money potentially from a group of people that have an

438
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: unlimited amount of cash. Look, it's definitely happening. It's happening.

439
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: It's going to have players that we all know that

440
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 1: we've watched on our TVs for years and years and years,

441
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: so that that shouldn't be debated any longer. I think

442
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 1: we know what's coming, and it's coming very soon. It's

443
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 1: coming in the next two months, the first event in

444
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: June in London, and so we understand that part of it.

445
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: The other part is, like you said, the money is unbelievable.

446
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,360
Speaker 1: So they now yesterday fifty million dollars to the winning

447
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: winning team, or excuse me, fifty million dollars first for

448
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:12,159
Speaker 1: a twelve team, four round, four day team matchplay event

449
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,159
Speaker 1: at the end of October, the final weekend of October,

450
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 1: where the winning team will get sixteen million dollars. That

451
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 1: means if you're the D player on a team where

452
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 1: you got I squeezed in with these other three guys

453
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 1: were pretty good players. I played the Asian Tour. Normally

454
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 1: I make two d and twelve thousand dollars a year.

455
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: Over the last couple of years, on average, I can

456
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 1: make four million dollars if my team wins the thing.

457
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: That's a lot of money. John and some of these guys,

458
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna chase the money. If you had a buddy

459
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 1: who said to you, Hey, you know what, I'm thinking

460
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 1: about working about a quarter as much as I'm working

461
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: right now. Some whow that sounds like a pretty good deal.

462
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 1: And then they said to you, yeah, that's not the

463
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,880
Speaker 1: whole thing. I'm also gonna get paid four times more. Yeah,

464
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 1: sign me up. Yeah, why wouldn't you do that? Now,

465
00:24:56,800 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 1: we all understand the ethical and moral situ wation of

466
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: going to play for what is essentially the Saudi Arabian

467
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 1: government that is funding this tour. And you have to say,

468
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 1: but you know a lot of those A lot of

469
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 1: the guys already do that, right for that two week

470
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: stretch around the A, T and T that they go over.

471
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 1: It's a little different. I mean, you're not but but

472
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 1: but they are getting paid to play, right, the DJs

473
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: and those guys that fly over. I think there's a

474
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,879
Speaker 1: difference between Hey, I took a little one off and

475
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,440
Speaker 1: went and played an event over there, and I am

476
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,439
Speaker 1: a full fledged member of their golf tour and this

477
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 1: is where I fly my craft full There's a complete difference. Yes, exactly,

478
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,120
Speaker 1: they're essentially my boss. And you also wonder, I mean

479
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 1: if at some point. Uh, you say something to a reporter,

480
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 1: you say something that you think is off the record,

481
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: that isn't necessarily in blowing terms about the Saudi Arabian government.

482
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:53,159
Speaker 1: Are you worried about certain things in your personal life? Look, there,

483
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,919
Speaker 1: there's a lot of factors in here. Yes, money is

484
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 1: a great thing. We all like money, we all want

485
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,959
Speaker 1: more money, and these guys can get more of it

486
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: by playing in this. But at what cost And there

487
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: might be a serious cost to them at some point.

488
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,920
Speaker 1: We have absolutely no idea what the repercussions of something

489
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 1: like that might be. But yeah, undeniably, they're bringing a

490
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: lot of money to this thing. It's going to happen.

491
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,919
Speaker 1: We're going to see bigger names. I would tell you

492
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 1: John that, um, I would guess a lot of international

493
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 1: players over the age of thirty five or forty years old,

494
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 1: and it's a lot of the names that we could

495
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 1: probably guess at here. Like Bob Howard reported for Sports

496
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: Illustrated dot com, fifteen of the top hundered in the

497
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 1: world have applied for a release to play in the

498
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: first event in London and June. And I would expect

499
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: that once players sort of get past this, and I

500
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 1: think A lot of what's stopping some players is just

501
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 1: the fact that I don't want to get crushed on

502
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 1: my social I don't want the public to hate me.

503
00:26:55,760 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 1: I like having fans, I like being adored by some

504
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,199
Speaker 1: percentage of the golf fan population out there. And so

505
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 1: let me wait until seven other guys have done it

506
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 1: and they've gotten the blowback, and then I can say, Okay,

507
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 1: you know what, now it's died down. People are kind

508
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,719
Speaker 1: of okay with it. Now I'm gonna jump in. Let

509
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 1: me let Phil Mickelson take the take the fall for

510
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: everybody here. I'm gonna jump in a little bit later,

511
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 1: get my money and not get as much of a

512
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: blowback against me for it. You know, I mean, the

513
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 1: one American name that feels it's been in the mix

514
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 1: with all the international guys, that feels likely to go

515
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: beside philis co crack uh. And I mean we'll find

516
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: out eventually. But he's injured right now with a unique

517
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: golf injury. Is a hypothetical for you if he had

518
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 1: been healthy, you know, do you think the one young

519
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 1: kind of superstar do you would you have expected Bryson

520
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 1: to join this league if everything had been normal with

521
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: his body or do you think the blowback, even he

522
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 1: being young, he has time on his side that he

523
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 1: might have held back. Well, where would you expected him

524
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 1: to play this fall? I have no inside sources on this.

525
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,199
Speaker 1: I think that if you would ask me this question

526
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 1: three months ago, I say, yeah, Bryson's all in. He's gone.

527
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 1: He's gonna go play in this tour. He's gonna make

528
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,959
Speaker 1: boatloads of money because it's not just uh, it's not

529
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: just what you earn in the events. But they're gonna

530
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 1: just pay these guys are gonna sign a contract and

531
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,440
Speaker 1: they're gonna pay them just to have their name on

532
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,120
Speaker 1: the billboards and have their name as part of the two.

533
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 1: He would have been the biggest name. He and Phil

534
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 1: would have been the two biggest names. I think in

535
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: this thing that said, look, Bryson Bryceon has a weird

536
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,199
Speaker 1: relationship with the public right now. Um, a lot of

537
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,959
Speaker 1: people don't like him, but Bryson Bryson feeds off some adelation.

538
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: Bryson thinks people really like I mean, he wants people

539
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: to really like them, And so I think that if

540
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 1: he goes and does this, it's you're sort of burning

541
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: the house down, You're you're sort of just saying, hey, look,

542
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't care about anything. I don't

543
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 1: care about what anyone says. I'm just taking the money.

544
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 1: And you know what, money doesn't provide comfort over the

545
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 1: long haul of this thing. And I do think that

546
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: Bryson wants to be loved by people. He wants to

547
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 1: win big events, he wants that adelation from the public,

548
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 1: and he's not gonna get it if he joins this thing.

549
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 1: So right now, I'd say it's probably less than fift

550
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 1: that Bryson goes all in. Doesn't mean he won't play

551
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 1: an event here and there, doesn't mean he won't take

552
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 1: a check from them to do some sort of work

553
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 1: with them or play with them, whatever it might be.

554
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 1: But to go all in and be a full fledged

555
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 1: member that new tour, I put it less than how

556
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: does this impact either being a member as a as

557
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: a player or a captain in the President's Cup and

558
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: the Ryder Cup moving forward? Do you think President's Cup

559
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 1: you're you're out, You're just it's dead in the water.

560
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: Presidents Cup is owned and run and governed by the

561
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: PGA Tour itself, and so it's just like saying, hey,

562
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: I'm not playing any more PGA tour, but you're just

563
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 1: you're not going to be a part of it is

564
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 1: done as a captain and everything you would certainly think

565
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: so reading between the lines of what Davis Love said

566
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, he was the RBC Heritage

567
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: at Harbor Town and Davis had a comment about, Hey,

568
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 1: we might have to do some restructuring, some reordering of

569
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: things as far as captaincies down the line for the

570
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 1: President's Cup and the Ryder Cup, and so we've got

571
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 1: to figure some things out. You read between the lines,

572
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 1: it's not very subtle right there. He's essentially saying Phil

573
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 1: may never get this opportunity. We're kicking Fill out of

574
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 1: the mix, and he's got to bypass him for some

575
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: other people. Again, you think about it, and you said, wow,

576
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 1: that's a lot of money. You can't give up that

577
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: kind of money, no matter what your ethical and moral

578
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: decision is. And then he said, on the other side

579
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 1: of it, Phil would have been a Ryder Cup captain

580
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 1: at beth Page. It would have been uh one of

581
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 1: the greatest events of his life to be in front

582
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 1: of the cameras and the microphones and be the decision

583
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: maker and the team spokes but he would have absolutely

584
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 1: eaten up that atmosphere in the New York area. And now,

585
00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 1: and as we talk right now, I mean, look, I'm

586
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 1: get my watch right now. Things can change the next

587
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 1: twenty minutes. They have moved so quickly on this entire story,

588
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 1: But as of right now, I would say that's probably

589
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: not happening, and that's a shame for Phil. And I

590
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 1: hope Phil's comforted by the millions of dollars he will

591
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: make off this thing, because that's the tradeoff that he's

592
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: giving this. I mean, I thought it was pretty cool

593
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 1: just had this last Ryder Cup see and Phil being

594
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: a big part of it as a vice captain, right,

595
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: I mean he was just him and Amy were just

596
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 1: always in the background, and obviously Phil those guys leaning

597
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: on him. It would be pretty I mean, it would

598
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 1: be like losing you know, Peyton or Tom Brady from

599
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 1: your you know. I mean, it's a big deal to

600
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 1: the sport of golf for Americans, right to lose Phil

601
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 1: as a member of all these things, especially for US

602
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 1: golf nerds that love these team events. I mean, if

603
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,800
Speaker 1: Tom Brady was going to go into a career in

604
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 1: coaching or being a general manager and having having his

605
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: fingerprints on the game of football, being an announcer in

606
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 1: the booth and sort of being somebody who's around the

607
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: game and in the game for the next twenty years.

608
00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden said, you know what,

609
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 1: to go take the mone and go with the USFL instead,

610
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: because they're giving me lots of money. And that's the

611
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 1: only reason why. Yeah, it would feel a little cheap

612
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 1: and absolutely Okay, let's let's dive into Mexico doing a

613
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 1: little recon, little resort course. Looks looks cool. The field,

614
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 1: you know, not not great. Uh So, then the reason

615
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 1: why John Robb's got Pete Tiger Woods like odds? Uh

616
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: in your piece though, you have a guy that you know,

617
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 1: I think this name has been in the mix for

618
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: a while. He's he's just a really good young player

619
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 1: in Aaron wise. And to me, the odds in a

620
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 1: tournament like this, doesn't it make sense to go to

621
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 1: the maybe thirty to eighty to one kind of that

622
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 1: range odds and not take a guy really high. I

623
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 1: love Gary Woodland, but I can't take Gary Woodland twenty

624
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 1: two one to win a golf tournament. No, A lot

625
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 1: of people I mean, he's basically the the favorite of

626
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 1: the UH golf betting industry this week, and I like Gary.

627
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: I have a little investment on Gary this week. But yeah,

628
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 1: it's a very very short number. Aaron Wise my favorite

629
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 1: play out there. I was hoping you would be a

630
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: little bit longer. In fact, he was until Daniel Berger

631
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 1: withdrew from this field on Monday afternoon, and that kind

632
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 1: of changed some of the odds of guys just behind him.

633
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: But I like Aaron Wise and maast Moono's who's finished

634
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 1: between twenty one and thirty nine and each of his

635
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 1: last six starts, which means he's playing really good, not

636
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:22,720
Speaker 1: playing great, but against the inferior field, should have a

637
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 1: better week results wise against them. I like him a lot.

638
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 1: If you're looking for value, and there's not a whole

639
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 1: lot of value in the field where uh, you know,

640
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 1: basically everyone squeezed in there. If if you've ever won

641
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 1: a golf tournament before, you're gonna have an insane number

642
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 1: next to your name as opposed to most other weeks.

643
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,480
Speaker 1: But Sad Degala, and we've talked about him here on

644
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: the podtform. This reason this kid is he was all

645
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 1: everything as an amateur, as a junior player collegiate at

646
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: Pepper Dying. I'm telling you the next year, eighteen months,

647
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 1: he's gonna be top twenty in the world, if not then,

648
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 1: and so you're not gonna get him at this price

649
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 1: for much longer are especially in this type of field.

650
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 1: I believe he's eighty to one right now going into

651
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: the week. That's a huge number on a kid who's

652
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 1: got as much talent as basically anyone who's not John

653
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 1: Rob in the field this week. It just kind of

654
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,320
Speaker 1: a bomber's paradise from what I do in a little research,

655
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,960
Speaker 1: just kind of just let it fly big fairways, and

656
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 1: a guy like that could really take advantage if he's

657
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 1: on right exactly. So it's seven thousand, four hundred and

658
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,800
Speaker 1: fifty yards R seventy one sounds tough, especially if the

659
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,800
Speaker 1: wind starts blowing in off the ocean there. That said,

660
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 1: what we've found from the PGA Tour in the past,

661
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 1: and especially at an event where they're trying to recruit

662
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,879
Speaker 1: some people for future events, this doesn't seem like it's

663
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,920
Speaker 1: a one off. It seems like it's going to be

664
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 1: on the schedule for a while. And so you don't

665
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 1: want to beat these guys up. You don't want players

666
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 1: to go to the next event and when they see

667
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: one of their peers on a practice round in the program,

668
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: on the range whatever, and the guy goes, oh, how's

669
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 1: Mexico last week? Dude, it was brutal. Oh my god,

670
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 1: I got my butt kicked air Uh it just it

671
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,799
Speaker 1: took forever to get there. It was a pain. All

672
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 1: of a sudden, that guy goes, I'm out. I'm never

673
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 1: playing that one. Thanks for the intel. What you want

674
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,839
Speaker 1: is the players to come back to the tour next

675
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 1: week and say, dude, it was really easy to get there.

676
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 1: The resort is awesome, The course was an immaculate condition,

677
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 1: one of the most beautiful place I've been to. You've

678
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: got to do it next year, and that's that's how

679
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 1: you grow these things up. And so based on that,

680
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 1: I would expect something in the low to mid twenties

681
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 1: under par to be the winning score this week, just

682
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 1: because they're gonna air on the side of caution when

683
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:37,839
Speaker 1: they set up this golf course. They're not gonna try

684
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 1: to beat these guys up, just based on look, we're

685
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 1: doing it for the future good of the tournament. If

686
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 1: we beat the guys up this week, We're not getting

687
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 1: anybody in the future, and so we've got to at

688
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 1: least make it a little bit easier and have guys

689
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 1: wreathing about the golf course, the conditions and the service

690
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 1: and everything else that you might get here, so we

691
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 1: get more of them coming back in future years. Get

692
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 1: you out here on this. Do you think watching last

693
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 1: week at all its success like that tournament, because to me,

694
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 1: you watch it, I want to like it, but it

695
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 1: just doesn't do that much for me. John. It's one

696
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 1: of these where in the days leading up to it,

697
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 1: I can't tell you how many times on the radio show,

698
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: on the podcast I do that, I said, Man, I

699
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 1: love this event out of the box, thinking yeah, man, event,

700
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: different format, it's fun, it's cool, it's relatable. We all

701
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,799
Speaker 1: played member guests, member members, and other two men event.

702
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 1: We you know, we can relate to what they're doing.

703
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: And then it got to the weekend, and granted, life

704
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: got in the way and I had some family things

705
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: that I didn't watch any of it all the weekend.

706
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 1: I caught the highlights, and some of that has to

707
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 1: do with can't Lee and Xander running away with it?

708
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 1: A little bit, but yeah, it just doesn't quite have

709
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 1: the juice, and so I don't have a great answer

710
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 1: quite honestly, if last week had been hey, it's just

711
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:56,919
Speaker 1: a seventy two whole stroke play event and we're gonna

712
00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 1: have it and we'll see who shows up, and I

713
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 1: would be the first one rarely against and saying we

714
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,319
Speaker 1: need to think out of the box. We need fun

715
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 1: with this is a great time the schedule have a

716
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: two man event where they have fun and they have

717
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 1: a good time. So it's really difficult for me to

718
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 1: play Monday morning quarterback and say, yeah, you know what

719
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 1: didn't really work because this is exactly what they should

720
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,799
Speaker 1: be doing. What can they do differently to make it?

721
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 1: Just get more people do, get better field, you know,

722
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 1: get more zan or can't a match up, you know,

723
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 1: combinations and it's hard. DJ is getting married and you

724
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:35,400
Speaker 1: know he doesn't have time. Okay, thanks, I tell you

725
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 1: a whole lot of players were at that wedding too,

726
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: and uh and maybe that hurt the field, you know,

727
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 1: better straight and field that DJ and Paulian is wedding

728
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 1: and there wasn't zuri. Okay, thanks, So I will talk

729
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 1: to you next week and enjoy the Mexican Open. All right,

730
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back to my mock draft. Now I've

731
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,239
Speaker 1: got like I said before we started this, We've got

732
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 1: nineteen different players going in the top ten in my draft.

733
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,919
Speaker 1: So I got figured, no no quarterbacks. I stay away

734
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:05,400
Speaker 1: from the quarterbacks. I know, I know, I got it. Okay,

735
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 1: see you, thanks, But let's dive into the go Low

736
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 1: mail bag, Go Lo Pod. All you gotta do is

737
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,240
Speaker 1: go to go Lo Pod at Golo Pod, go follow

738
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,960
Speaker 1: it and uh and shoot me at d M and

739
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 1: let's go see what our d M say. Hey, John,

740
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 1: big fan of the pot, enjoy the golf talk. You've

741
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,240
Speaker 1: mentioned golfing in Phoenix Scott's Dale area. I was curious

742
00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: if you have any Rex. We have Troon and TPC

743
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 1: booked looking at Papago and Wildfire for thirty six on Saturday.

744
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 1: I haven't played those two. I played Wika pal Weika

745
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,560
Speaker 1: Paul Weko Pole. I don't exactly know how to say it.

746
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: Highly recommended played thirty six. It's the only time in

747
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 1: my life I haven't played thirty six holes in a

748
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 1: day that many times. But it's the first time I've

749
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,720
Speaker 1: ever been drunk. Starting eight team because you play eighteen

750
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: and if you start drinking on whole night of the

751
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 1: first eight team, then you have some cocktails at lunch

752
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, like I got a pretty good

753
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 1: buzz going into a hole, which would be the equivalent

754
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: of nineteen and by whole twenty seven, you know, you're

755
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 1: kind of slashed. But I would weak A pow is

756
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: pretty sweet, So I definitely, uh, I recommend that thoroughly.

757
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:25,359
Speaker 1: How do you watch golf? Do you use golf TV?

758
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,280
Speaker 1: Been looking into it and it doesn't look like ESPN

759
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,439
Speaker 1: Plus is available in Australia. If you use Golf TV,

760
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,080
Speaker 1: is it worth it? What I do is I use

761
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 1: ESPN Plus. So I watch ESPN Plus basically every tournament

762
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,759
Speaker 1: Thursday Friday in the morning, you know, if I go

763
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 1: work out Saturday Sunday, take my iPad with me and

764
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 1: watch it. Obviously usually in the States it comes on

765
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 1: a golf channel. Um usually for us about you know,

766
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: on the weekends of ten ten am and on the

767
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 1: weekdays it just depends sometimes not until after lunch. So

768
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,240
Speaker 1: I don't I don't even know really honestly, what golf

769
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 1: TV is I use. I use ESPN Plus, which you

770
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 1: know I can't recommend it enough. It's it's been really

771
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,800
Speaker 1: really good with the lockdown. I'm working from home the

772
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:15,280
Speaker 1: last two years. Your three and Out podcast was great entertainment.

773
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 1: Thank you. I'm a divorce fifty four year old from Vancouver,

774
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,920
Speaker 1: British Columbia who never golfed until I met my girlfriend

775
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, and she is a really,

776
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:27,840
Speaker 1: really good golfer, so I thought I'd better get my

777
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 1: ass and gear and start playing. I agree, I was

778
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 1: reasonably athletic and played lots of competitive sports in my

779
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 1: younger years, but I have no idea how challenging golf is.

780
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 1: But I'm hooked. I had no idea. Do you have

781
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 1: any recommendations on golf instruction books I should read or

782
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:49,719
Speaker 1: who I should follow on YouTube or Instagram? Thanks again. Well,

783
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:53,799
Speaker 1: right now, for example, my balance is off, and my

784
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 1: balance I I just I'm not hitting the ball consistently

785
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,720
Speaker 1: because I'm coming out of my stance, like when I'm swinging,

786
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 1: I'm way ahead of it. I'm way behind it. And

787
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 1: I just typed in what I was doing to YouTube

788
00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 1: and I found countless videos that taught me different drills

789
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 1: or just things to focus on. So whatever, you're doing specifically,

790
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,839
Speaker 1: like if you're chunking it, if you're thinning it, if

791
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:20,400
Speaker 1: you're hitting bad slices, if you're hitting bad hooks, if whatever.

792
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:24,440
Speaker 1: Just type it into YouTube beside Google. YouTube is the

793
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 1: number two search engine in the world. Now Google owns YouTube.

794
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 1: But I promise you just type in specifically what you

795
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 1: need and YouTube has it. I I can't recommend YouTube

796
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 1: enough as a as a teaching tool. I I really can't.

797
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 1: Pet perez shoe collection only topped by a story journey

798
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 1: to PGA twenty years and counting. You're right, he's right

799
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,440
Speaker 1: about being a benefactor of the Tiger effect thirty plus

800
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 1: million in tour winnings. I don't think it can be understated.

801
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 1: Is me overstated how much money Tiger has made everybody?

802
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 1: I I think basketball owes everything to Michael Jordan's in

803
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 1: terms of the cash. And you could say Larry and

804
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,480
Speaker 1: Magic to Larry Magic, and Michael brought all the cash.

805
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 1: Tiger brought all the cash, all the money because golf,

806
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:22,840
Speaker 1: you know, And I was a kid when Tiger was

807
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:27,399
Speaker 1: really coming on. It was niche. Anyone who had any

808
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 1: athletic ability played baseball in the spring. They didn't play golf.

809
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 1: Now when I see all these athletes loving golf, I'm like,

810
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,960
Speaker 1: that's really cool. That is something that did not happen

811
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 1: when I was a kid. It wasn't even possible, and

812
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 1: Tiger made it fun and cool. Now, just golf. You know,

813
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: if as you get older, competitive juices, you know you're

814
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,759
Speaker 1: not You're not playing pick up basketball at the y

815
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 1: when you're forty three years old because you don't want

816
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,440
Speaker 1: to tear an achilles. Right. There is no pick up

817
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 1: football league you could lay. I guess fast fast pitch baseball.

818
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 1: But I have a lot of friends that were college

819
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 1: baseball players. None of them do that so and they

820
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:10,320
Speaker 1: all played golf. I think golf is is very uniquely

821
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:14,760
Speaker 1: suited for people that just one just want to get outside,

822
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 1: want to do some activities. And then for the group

823
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 1: of alpha's that want to compete. I want to gamble,

824
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,799
Speaker 1: I want to enjoy themselves, want to have a few pops, right,

825
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 1: I want to hang with the boys. I want to socialize.

826
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,239
Speaker 1: We're social creatures. It's healthy, you know, no different than

827
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 1: playing basketb I used to love pick up basketball in

828
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:35,480
Speaker 1: my twenties. I can't afford to tear my A C L.

829
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 1: You know I don't I don't want to do that.

830
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 1: And you know I've never played pick up, you know, softball.

831
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,759
Speaker 1: But you know, I think the older you get, the

832
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,319
Speaker 1: less likely you are to do that. I go out.

833
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:50,320
Speaker 1: I played golf on Saturday. There were old people everywhere

834
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,880
Speaker 1: playing golf having the time of their life. Appreciate everyone listening,
