1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:10,680
Speaker 1: A trick your down, you got real telling, don concentrate

2
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 1: on golf.

3
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 2: What's up everybody, and welcome to another Action Network podcast.

4
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 3: The Golf Edition, presented by Bet MGM.

5
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 2: As always, I'm Jason Sobole from Golf Bet alongside my buddy.

6
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 4: Peter Jennings from Fantasy.

7
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 2: Labs, and we're gonna be joining just a little bit

8
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 2: from Scott Fawcett from Decade Golf, who is one of

9
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 2: the smarter people in the game that I have spoken

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 2: with in a long time. So cannot wait for that.

11
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 2: But first, beat, let's dig into what we saw this weekend.

12
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 2: Bryson Deshamba becomes a major champion for the first time

13
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:51,239
Speaker 2: in a big way, and I mean big hitting drivers

14
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 2: all over the place, having the lowest score on Sunday

15
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 2: afternoon and winning this thing by a half dozen shots

16
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 2: at Wingfoot.

17
00:00:58,600 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 3: What a weekend for Bryson.

18
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 5: Coming out party maybe for Bryson. I mean, he's already

19
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 5: established on the tour, He's had a ton of amateur accolades,

20
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 5: he's one of the PGA Tour. He's getting a lot

21
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 5: of notoriety. But to go out and lap the field

22
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 5: at the US Open to be the only player under

23
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 5: par to do it his way. I mean, he just

24
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 5: firmly put himself.

25
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 3: You know.

26
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 5: That was a big legacy moment for Bryson. And I

27
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 5: was wrong on Bryson. I was all over rom and

28
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 5: preferred Rory and Xander and all all those guys straight

29
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 5: up to Bryson, and was betting throughout the tournament, and

30
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 5: you know Patrick Reid after we had a lot of positions.

31
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 5: I had a lot of positions on Patrick Reid. You know,

32
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 5: then bet Matt Wolf going into the final day, which

33
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 5: I thought was a great price. So I was fading

34
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 5: Bryson and that was really dumb looking at how he performed.

35
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 5: So kudos to Bryson. I think it's great for the game.

36
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 5: I know there's some polarizing opinions on him, but the

37
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 5: guy busted his butt to get where he is and

38
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 5: he's always thinking about how he can get better and

39
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 5: he's pushing boundaries and it's very cool to see him win.

40
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 5: And we'll see what he can do with the Masters,

41
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 5: which you tweeted out the next two Majors, both the

42
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 5: Masters fifty two.

43
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 2: Days away now the November Masters, the first November Masters,

44
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 2: and then we don't have to wait till long until

45
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty one Masters.

46
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 3: So a lot of really fun golf coming up.

47
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 2: And yeah, if you've listened to this podcast, I'm sure

48
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 2: at some point, maybe three or four months ago, I said,

49
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 2: watch out Bryson wingfoot US Open. We've seen big hitters

50
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 2: Brooks Koepka twice in the last four years, Gary Woodland,

51
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 2: Dustin Johnson.

52
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 3: The big hitters play their best at the big ballparks.

53
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 3: At the US Open.

54
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 2: They can hack it out of the rough. They have

55
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 2: the strength, they have the athletic ability. And then last

56
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 2: week I said, yeah, you know.

57
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 3: Bryson just hasn't played well enough lately. I'm so stupid.

58
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 2: I do this golf pool every year where you make

59
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 2: your picks like halfway through the year for the whole

60
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 2: second half, and I had Bryson in the golf pool

61
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 2: because I was convinced that Bryceon was going to win

62
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 2: the US Open.

63
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 3: And then in the.

64
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 2: Week leading up to it, I kind of looked at

65
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: the recent performances, recent results, and I just I'm gonna

66
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 2: I'm gonna fade him just a little bit, so we

67
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 2: move on. You know, It's like it's like being at

68
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 2: the altar and you're about to marry this woman. You're

69
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 2: kind of I got cold feet, and I you know,

70
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 2: I decide not to and she turns out to be

71
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,959
Speaker 2: a supermodel and biochemist and the greatest mother in the world.

72
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 3: And you're sitting there like, yeah, I was right there,

73
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 3: I was there. I was gonna do it.

74
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 2: Recent performance last week wasn't great, so I'm gonna I'm

75
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 2: gonna fader instead. So that's about how I feel about that.

76
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 2: So great week for Bryson. Let's get in some of

77
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 2: the other parts of the leader board as well, because

78
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 2: we go down there and Matthew Wolf. I think if

79
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 2: Matthew Wolf is hanging his head after this one for

80
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 2: more than five minutes, he's doing it wrong. Because the

81
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 2: guy's twenty one years old. He's supposed to be a

82
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 2: senior at Oklahoma State right now. Instead he's contending at

83
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 2: two straight major championships. He's got a world of talent.

84
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 2: He's gonna be around for a long time. Xander Schoffley

85
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 2: keeps racking up top fives, top tens at major championships.

86
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 4: That guy is just so good. I love watching him

87
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 4: at majors.

88
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 2: Then I know you want to talk a little will

89
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 2: Zala taurus, the corn ferry stud who is not going

90
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 2: to be just a corn faery stud for very long.

91
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 2: We're gonna see him this week on the PGA Tour.

92
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 2: We'll get into that in a little bit, but we

93
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: saw him this past week at six. I mean we

94
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: might be seeing the next young superstar in the making.

95
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 5: Uh Yeah, led the corn Faery Tour in green regulation,

96
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 5: hit the ball a mile off the tee, made a

97
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:28,919
Speaker 5: hole in one at the US Open, which I know

98
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 5: is almost all luck, but yeah, coming out party for him,

99
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 5: and he looks like he's going to be very, very good,

100
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 5: and the betting markets have taken notice. He is the

101
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 5: favorite Corey Connors al Taurus. Those are kind of the

102
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 5: top of the field here. So shout out to Will

103
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,679
Speaker 5: and excited to chat more about him with Scott.

104
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 2: Let's get into biggest surprises this past week. From a

105
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 2: negative standpoint, there are only a few guys that I

106
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 2: looked at.

107
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 4: I had John ram ontop of my list.

108
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 2: Every time I looked at the television screen, John Rahm

109
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 2: was missing a putt on the high side and just

110
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 2: and be fuddled by where the ball was.

111
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 3: Going on the greens. And so you know, he really

112
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 3: the ball.

113
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 2: Striking wasn't terrible, just he just looked like he was

114
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,600
Speaker 2: a little confused. It wasn't the genre temper tantrums, was

115
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 2: the emotions for the most part. But he just could

116
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: not get the ball into the hole and so that

117
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 2: wasn't good enough.

118
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 3: That's a disappointment, but he still wasn't bad.

119
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 2: He was top twenty and there for me, Tommy Fleetwood

120
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 2: missing the cut and Matthew Fitzpatrick missing the cut were

121
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 2: both just I was all over both of those guys

122
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 2: and did not see either of those coming. Who, for

123
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 2: you was the biggest disappointment of this past week.

124
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, for my DFS lineups and betting, Fitzpatrick was at

125
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 5: the top of the list, followed closely by Terrell Hadden,

126
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 5: who was on early when he won, which is great,

127
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 5: was fading him when he came back. He came back

128
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 5: a little later than most of the COVID tour, was

129
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:55,039
Speaker 5: just putting lights out and that was you know, that's stung,

130
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,559
Speaker 5: and then get back on him. Luckily he was chocked,

131
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 5: so that didn't hurt me too much. And then I

132
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 5: guess my biggest this appointment, Jason, I thought I was

133
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 5: going to have an incredible week at all these six

134
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 5: of six teams was looking great in BFS, and then

135
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 5: I pulled back and lost all these teams that had

136
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 5: you know, three or six, four or six, So it

137
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,239
Speaker 5: was carnage for basically everyone other than Bryson.

138
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, what saved me this past week. I hit Bryson

139
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 2: live on Saturday. Not great number, obviously, but just kind

140
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 2: of had a feeling by by mid round Saturday that

141
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 2: it was going to be Bryson the next day. And

142
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 2: then top twenties, you know, down the line, guys like

143
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 2: Jason Kokrak and Tony Fenow.

144
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 3: We obvious see Fenale up there, Lee Westwood.

145
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 2: I was pretty right on Westwood, so you know, at

146
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 2: least having top twenties on those guys, hitting some matchups,

147
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 2: fading Speef everywherek out. I had Martin Kaimer and Brendan

148
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 2: Todd against Jordan Speed. I had Mickelson against Jordan's Feath,

149
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 2: and I saw Michelson shoot seventy nine to seventy four.

150
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 2: I go, okay, well I lost that one, and all

151
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 2: of a sudden, you know, I see the bottom line.

152
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 4: It's a winner.

153
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 2: I go, oh, God, Jordan. But I thought that was

154
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,119
Speaker 2: a major step in the right direction for him. Peter

155
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 2: and I say this because the golf was awful, not

156
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 2: anywhere close to being good. But for the first time, jordan'

157
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 2: speith came out Friday, stood in front of the microphone,

158
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 2: stood in front of the reporters and said, I'm kind

159
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 2: of lost right now. You can't play this kind of

160
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 2: golf on a US Open golf course. I need to

161
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 2: go figure it out. He has not said that before.

162
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 2: For the last two years, Jordan has said, yeah, it's closed,

163
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 2: feels pretty good on the range, just having trouble bringing

164
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 2: into the course.

165
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 3: You know, we have eyes, we see what's going on.

166
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 2: And now for him, they always say the first step

167
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 2: of recovery is admission, and now he's admitting it publicly.

168
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 2: I think that will get him going, probably quicker than

169
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 2: just denying that he's playing badly.

170
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 5: I hope so. And I shouldn't be giving advice, but statistically,

171
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 5: all he needs to do is figure it out off

172
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 5: the team. If he can start hitting fairways and even

173
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 5: an average clip, he's going to compete again. He's a

174
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 5: short game wizard. We know he can become the best putter,

175
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 5: especially when things get rolling and his iron game is

176
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 5: still there. In a lot of ways. So I'm rooting

177
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 5: for Jordan.

178
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, me too, And so a fun weekend comes to

179
00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 2: a close. I know it wasn't as dramatic as some

180
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 2: people would have liked. I saw a lot of people

181
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 2: on social media going, oh man, this is like so

182
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 2: boring in the end, like, sorry, Bryson decided to play

183
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 2: way better than everybody else and win by six. Should

184
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 2: he have pulled a Danny Lee at the end of

185
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 2: there and you know, gotten six putted just to like

186
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 2: keep a few other guys in there?

187
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 3: No, not exactly.

188
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 2: So hey, look it happens sometimes guys win by by

189
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 2: a bunch and you just gotta sit there in your

190
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 2: recliner at home and clap your hands for him and say, okay, Well,

191
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 2: hopefully we get nine guys in a playoff at Augusta

192
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 2: National in a month and a half, so that would

193
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 2: be kind of fun. So I want to get to

194
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 2: Scott Fawcett, who has worked with Bryson for a while,

195
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 2: and I'm telling you this guy is as smart as

196
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,959
Speaker 2: anybody about the strategy within the game of golf.

00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,520

00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 2: Bryson D Chambell. You know, Scott, I watched some of

213
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 2: the YouTube videos interviews with you earlier today, nobody knows

214
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 2: how to introduce.

215
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 3: You, so I came up with, what do you think

216
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 3: of golf? Data scientist and strategic analysis analysts? Does that

217
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 3: work for you?

218
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 6: Absolutely? Absolutely?

219
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 4: Tell us what exactly that means?

220
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 2: Then what does a data scientist and strategic analyst do

221
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 2: you know?

222
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 6: I've got finance and economics degrees. I've played professional golf,

223
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 6: I've played high level poker. I've got a pretty unique background.

224
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 6: And so, really, like you said, data scientist, I'm not

225
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 6: much of a big data guy. I graduated from college

226
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 6: in nineteen ninety six and have basically been on my

227
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 6: own since. So that's why I partnered with lou Stagner,

228
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 6: because he's great at manipulating the big data. I know

229
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 6: the math, and I know what I wanted to see,

230
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 6: and then I actually use a different data guys, and

231
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 6: maybe I'm just the in between guy.

232
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 3: You've known Bryson, I want to say, you've been working

233
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 3: with I.

234
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 4: You know, whenever whenever we say working.

235
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 2: With someone, it sounds like, you know, you're standing next

236
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 2: to them on the range, like whispering into their ear

237
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 2: after every shot. But tell us kind of the relationship

238
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 2: with you and Bryson, how it evolved, and secondly, kind

239
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 2: of how proud you are.

240
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 4: To see sort of the fruits of your.

241
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 3: Labor come to fruition this past weekend with a major championship.

242
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 6: It's really been incredible, honestly, And you know, Bryson, So

243
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 6: when I first created a decade, I combined the new

244
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 6: strokes gained database with a bunch of track Man data.

245
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 6: I've been you know, great friends with Como for for

246
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 6: almost twenty years now, and so I took all of

247
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 6: the track Man data that we've had on and created

248
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 6: a generic shot pattern, combined it all together to an

249
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 6: essence solve course management. And then when I caddied for

250
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 6: Will Zelataurus, who just finished sixth in the US Open.

251
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 6: When I caddied for him back in twenty fourteen when

252
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 6: he won a Texas AMiner, and US junior Jason Endlo,

253
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 6: the SMU coach, and Alan Bratton from Oklahoma State, they

254
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 6: both came up to me and they're like, dude, I

255
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 6: don't know what you're doing, but you're clearly doing something

256
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 6: math based with these guys. You know Will, what isn't

257
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 6: I kind of explained it to him, and Jason's like,

258
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 6: Bryson plays way too aggressively because he thinks you can

259
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 6: perfect the game. Like if you can turn this into

260
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 6: some sort of an indoor seminar, I think Bryson would

261
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 6: really thrive on it. And so that's honestly, like, I'm

262
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 6: an electricity company. This is kind of a side gig.

263
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 6: And I whipped it all together I'm a huge Tony

264
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 6: Robbins fan, and I modeled one of his seminars. I

265
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 6: went and gave my seminars at Oklahoma State and Duke

266
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 6: and SMU and Bryson literally said in the seminari he

267
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 6: set there, he said, I aim at every single flag.

268
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 6: He's like, I figure, if it's your week, it's your week.

269
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 6: And getting a guy like that who's really good at

270
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 6: golf at the time, he's like sixtieth in the world,

271
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,439
Speaker 6: and getting him just to understand you can't be perfect

272
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 6: in this game and slowly changed the way he's views.

273
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 6: And then obviously a few months later he wins the

274
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 6: NCAA's and US Amateur. And so my relationship with him

275
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 6: is I created all these course packets and did the

276
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 6: data for him on how to play all of the

277
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,319
Speaker 6: golf courses. And when he was over in Dubai and

278
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 6: finished twelfth in the US and excuse me, in the

279
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 6: European Tours and Amateur, we had these conversations where I'm

280
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 6: telling him from the satellites how to play the course.

281
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 6: And then I did that with him through his getting

282
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 6: his PGA Tour card through the web dot Com tour

283
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 6: at the time and then his rookie year out on

284
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,719
Speaker 6: the PGA Tour, and now obviously he's signed a deal

285
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 6: with Microsoft, so they're the big data guys now. But

286
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,319
Speaker 6: I'm essentially the one who solved it and taught it

287
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 6: all to him, and I still have a great working

288
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 6: relationship with Como where I kind of tell him what

289
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 6: Bryson needs to be doing as a as a relay

290
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 6: if you will, in between.

291
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 2: So Scott last, I believe it was Tuesday before the

292
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 2: US Open started. Bryson was doing an interview with some

293
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 2: of the reporters there and at this point everyone's talking about, man,

294
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 2: the roth is just it's so thick, it's so gnarly.

295
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 2: You can't if you're in it, you're not gonna be

296
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 2: able to get it to the green. And Bryson came

297
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 2: out and said, yeah, I'm basically to bang driver all

298
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 2: over this golf course. And everyone kind of snickered, and

299
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 2: everyone's Bryson's going to hit driver everywhere. First of all,

300
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 2: how much were you involved in that decision making with him?

301
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 2: And secondly, what did you think from the reaction to

302
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 2: everyone sort of snickering at Bryson when he said it.

303
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 6: I've never been more confident in my entire life. The

304
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 6: Tiger era included that a specific person was going to

305
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 6: win a golf tournament. Wow, I mean literally, And again,

306
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 6: it sounds like it's easy to say in hindsight, but

307
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 6: I told a lot of people, and the problem is

308
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 6: that PGA tour have got these ethics clauses that we

309
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:37,840
Speaker 6: have to sign in order to get access to the

310
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 6: shot link now from gambling. So I kind of just

311
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 6: sit on my tongue the whole time. But I'm like,

312
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 6: this guy's unbeatable. And you'll notice I tweeted the text

313
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 6: that I sent to Como and time stamped it before

314
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 6: it started, saying, I guarantee you this guy's going to

315
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 6: win the tournament. It's just set up too perfect. But

316
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 6: I can't tell the world that because the ethics causes.

317
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 6: So to your question of how much am I involved,

318
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,119
Speaker 6: I mean again, Como is five hundred yards me. We

319
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 6: we're good friends, and leading into the PGA, I was

320
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 6: explaining to him how you've just got to hit driver everywhere.

321
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 6: There's nowhere that three Woods really ever the option unless

322
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 6: it's for a shape reason or a crossing hazard. And

323
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 6: he goes out and he finishes fourth, in the PGA,

324
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 6: but there were a few times he hit three with

325
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 6: that he just didn't need to. And you know, Koma

326
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 6: comes home like, dude, I'm telling you, that's the deal.

327
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 6: It's just these little tents of a shot everywhere that

328
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 6: he leaked. We had a conversation before they left for

329
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 6: the US Open. I'm like, dude, every single hole at

330
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 6: this course is a driver. And there are times, you

331
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 6: know where certain holes, like eighteen years they were the

332
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 6: dog leg. It's just too hard for him to turn

333
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 6: it that hard while hitting it that hard. It's a

334
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 6: really hard thing to do, obviously, and so that's the

335
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 6: only reason to drop back. And it's just funny just

336
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 6: to watch it. I mean, essentially unfold perfectly. There's no

337
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 6: question he was going to decimate them because again to

338
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 6: your next question, when people are laughing about it and

339
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 6: the Bryson gave the analogy that I don't think he

340
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 6: even realized was actually for me of if every fairway

341
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 6: was one yard wide, you would want to hit it

342
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 6: as far as possible. I'm like, that's essentially how I

343
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 6: explained it to Como. The other great analogy is like

344
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 6: making it to day two of the World Series of poker.

345
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 6: I could teach my seven year old daughter how to

346
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 6: do that by folding every hand. We could tell her

347
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 6: aunt the table, this is we're gonna do. We're gonna

348
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 6: play aces and kings only, we're gonna shove all in.

349
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 6: She'd have no chance of winning, but she would guaranteed

350
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 6: make it to day two. And that's what hitting two

351
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 6: aren't is like, it's like just kind of it's not

352
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 6: the worst play ever, but you're just folding away a

353
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 6: little bit of equity every time you do. And part

354
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 6: of winning a golf tournament, it's why you don't win

355
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 6: very often, is just having a little bit of ASA variance.

356
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 6: And that's essentially what you have to set up in

357
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 6: your favorite to have any chance of working out.

358
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 2: So, first of all, i'd see Pete salivating, by the way,

359
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 2: I was gonna tell you, Scott, first of all, you've

360
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 2: got my number. I know you've got an ethics clause,

361
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 2: but we at the Action Network we're allowed to gamble,

362
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 2: So you know, just hit me up the next time

363
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 2: you've got.

364
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 3: A sure thing out there, especially in a major.

365
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 2: Peter is salivating because you're literally speaking his entire language

366
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 2: right now, and you guys are gonna be best friends

367
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 2: within the next ten minutes.

368
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, Scott, it's great to hear you explain everything poker

369
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 5: background for me than finance and now Betty on golf

370
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 5: and playing DFS. Golf is my main gig. So love

371
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 5: hearing about talk about variants and risk reward And I

372
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 5: think the thing that Bryson did with the driver, and

373
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 5: I think an underrated thing that you know people don't

374
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 5: look at enough is stroke scanned off the tea, which

375
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 5: is the most predictive low variant stat Talk about other

376
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 5: risk reward spots and golf and how you've kind of

377
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 5: applied math to that. Also, I'm a ten handicap golfer.

378
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 5: What would you say to someone who's a ten handicap

379
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 5: from a risk reward standpoint? As well?

380
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 6: I start my seminar in the decade app off by

381
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 6: these videos. Basically I'm saying, stop trying to make birdies,

382
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 6: stop trying to make putts. Winning requires luck and just

383
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 6: getting people to understand that. Again, Like when I was

384
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 6: in my twenties, I traveled with Chad Campbell and Chris

385
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 6: Riley and I'm playing with them and you know, I

386
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 6: won a couple times on the Hooters store as a

387
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 6: pretty good player, but Chad won eight of sixteen starts

388
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 6: one year, and I'm like, I know him as good

389
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 6: as this guy. And it's really just understanding how to

390
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 6: man edge of your game and to score is really

391
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,360
Speaker 6: the separator. And so you know, to a ten handicap,

392
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,640
Speaker 6: just really understanding shot patterns, understanding targets. Like that's the

393
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 6: biggest thing that I think a guy like you can

394
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 6: just really understand is that even pros when you see

395
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 6: and it just it does drive me craziness. I should

396
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,639
Speaker 6: not let it, but it does. When you see a

397
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 6: guy hit it tight to a pin that you know

398
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 6: was tucked behind a leg, is like, what an aggressive

399
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,120
Speaker 6: confidence shot? I'm like, there's zero chance he was actually

400
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,199
Speaker 6: aiming at that. And so the main thing you've got

401
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 6: to understand is you've got a shotgun and not a

402
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 6: sniper's rifle. And the next key to that is you

403
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 6: don't know if the shot, like with a driver, that's

404
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,439
Speaker 6: that's thirty yards left of your target, thirty yards right

405
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 6: of your target, or right at your target. You'd have

406
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 6: no idea which one's coming next. But it's somewhere within

407
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 6: that shotgun pattern. And once you accept that reality, you start,

408
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 6: you know, using that to shift your target around the

409
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,679
Speaker 6: golf course. And that's essentially again with a guy like Bryce,

410
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,360
Speaker 6: and he thinks that perfect golf is possible, and it's

411
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 6: really because of subtle uphill and downhill, lies the ball

412
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 6: above your feet, below your feet, subtle variances and win

413
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 6: and shoot. The Pythagorean theorem works against you in golf

414
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 6: on tour because if you're in the left side of

415
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 6: the faraway and the pins on the left, the yards

416
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 6: but goes to the front of the green and then

417
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 6: straight in. I mean, anytime you see somebody hit a

418
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 6: shot close is luck. And Sean Martin, the PGA Tours writer,

419
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 6: tweeted out after xalators made a hole in one last

420
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 6: week he was needling me, which my haters didn't recognize.

421
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,880
Speaker 6: It was just a joke, but he says, Xalatorus makes

422
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 6: a hole in one in the US Open, and all

423
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 6: Fossil Will want to talk about is that he wasn't

424
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 6: aiming at the pen. So I sent Will a text.

425
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 6: I was like, all right, where are you aiming? And

426
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 6: he said three yards? Right, Like that's the key? Is

427
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 6: Is it sexy to say it was luck? It was

428
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 6: a great shot, had impact, it was a good shot.

429
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,360
Speaker 6: The fact it hit a four and a quarter inch

430
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 6: wide hole from one hundred and sixty eight yards is

431
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 6: I mean, it's just insane. It's just variants.

432
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 5: What are some other examples of brisby Ward? And I

433
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 5: definitely want to talk about xalators too. While I was

434
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 5: bullish on coming in and I think he should. I mean,

435
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 5: I'm a big Corey Condor's guy too, just from a

436
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 5: ball striking standpoint, but loves Xalatorus this week too.

437
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 6: The key to to understand against you. That's why I

438
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 6: said to start my seminars with stop trying to make birdie's.

439
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 6: There's every birdie even on the PG Tour, there's some

440
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 6: sort of luck involved or positive variants, otherwise you do

441
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 6: it more often. And so like when you come up

442
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 6: to an easy par five might have a scoring average

443
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 6: of four point six. So to make birdie you have

444
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 6: to do something to gain point six shots against the

445
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 6: field as opposed to only losing point four if you

446
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 6: make a par And so there's just all these disproportioned rewards.

447
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 6: So when someone comes to here as a birdie hole,

448
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 6: no no, no, it's more birdiable than another hole. But

449
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 6: on average, I would make a lot of money by

450
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 6: betting you you're gonna make par even on the easiest

451
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 6: par five, you know, within reason in the world. And

452
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 6: so there is two exceptions of that, and your t

453
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 6: shot on a driveable par four and your approach shot

454
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 6: on a semi reachable par five. Those are two spots

455
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 6: where you are actually trying to make birdie. And the

456
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 6: classic example of that is Riviera number ten. And the

457
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 6: historic advice, you know, pre data, was well, you've got

458
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 6: to you know, to the front left pin. You go

459
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 6: ahead and hit driver down there and then you proceed

460
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 6: and if it's back right, you lay up and then

461
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 6: you know, you attack it with your eighty yard webshot.

462
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 6: And it's just hilarious because I actually have got some

463
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:10,880
Speaker 6: great images that I'll tweet out later on to fall

464
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 6: up on this. But if you look at the scoring

465
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 6: averages over the last four years, they've just started to plummet.

466
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 6: And if you draw a line at the bunker and

467
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 6: it's like, and I'm making these numbers up because obviously

468
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 6: I didn't know what to think about, but it's like

469
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 6: it was fifty to fifty laying up before and now

470
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 6: it's like ninety percent sending it up there. But the

471
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 6: key is, once you get out of position, you stop

472
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 6: trying to make bertie. So if it's you know, so

473
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 6: easy to make birdie to the front hole location, if

474
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 6: the pins in the back and you hit it way

475
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 6: too long or a little bit short, anything like that,

476
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 6: you just try to put it on the front bulb.

477
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 6: And I tried to make bertie with the T shot.

478
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 6: It didn't pan out. The key from this point is

479
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,159
Speaker 6: not making bogie. And it's just so interesting because really

480
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,679
Speaker 6: it's it's kind of like if you do, you know,

481
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 6: corporate turnaround. If a guy's coming in to turn around

482
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 6: the failing corporation, he doesn't come in and be like,

483
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 6: all right, how can we sell a whole lot more stuff?

484
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 6: It's like, dude, where can we smer expenses? And golf

485
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 6: is no different. You don't shoot lower scores, well, obviously

486
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 6: you do shoot lower scores by making more birdies, but

487
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:11,159
Speaker 6: you don't make more birdies intentionally. Instead, you do it

488
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,439
Speaker 6: by making fewer bogies and then all comes back to

489
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 6: those reachable par four stupid bogie type holes.

490
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's actually helped my golf game the most.

491
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 5: When I first started trying to play a little bit

492
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 5: more seriously. I got the advice that wherever you are,

493
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 5: you know, a lot of times the dobbyce doesn't happen

494
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 5: on the tee, But wherever you are, what's a good

495
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 5: score for you? From where you are? So if you're

496
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 5: out of position, like you said, you know Castle Pines

497
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 5: number ten, this long par four with a huge pond

498
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 5: in front of it, you put it in the rough

499
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 5: on the left and now you have a bad line.

500
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 5: You got two hundred some yards in Like, Yeah, a

501
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 5: five of bogie for me is a great score. So

502
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 5: don't try to compound the air by going for the

503
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 5: green and then putting it in the water and then

504
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 5: making double bogie or worse, set yourself up to make

505
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 5: a five. And obviously PGA tour players are much better.

506
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 6: But well, but they're not. I mean when I show

507
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:59,360
Speaker 6: people Jason Day's shot pattern with a driver from five

508
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 6: years ago over at Johnson Claire's place in Fort Worth,

509
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 6: when he's number one in the world, he's third and

510
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 6: strokes game driving hit twenty drivers in practice, hitting the

511
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 6: same shot over and over again. In the shot pattern

512
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 6: was seventy four yards wide and most people's jaw hit

513
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 6: the ground when you think about that, Like, dude, he's

514
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,640
Speaker 6: the best player in the world seventy four yards wide.

515
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 6: Even the best players. I mean again, this is I'm

516
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 6: a twice field playing professional, so I can't say this,

517
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 6: but they're not that good. They're professional golfers are the

518
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 6: worst at their craft of any professional athlete in the world.

519
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 6: Like if a professional dart there throws a dart and says,

520
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 6: that's a bullseye, I'm going to assure you it was

521
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 6: a bullseye golf. It's like it was a good shot ish,

522
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 6: it's kind of near my target. And that really is

523
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 6: again the expectation management parting in decade, the e is expectation.

524
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 6: That's where it all comes from because again in my twenties,

525
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 6: I was an absolute, raging lunatic and using the data

526
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,679
Speaker 6: not just to make better decisions, but to also just

527
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,640
Speaker 6: calm you down. Like dude, yeah, it wasn't a great

528
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 6: par from one oh six in the fairway, but you

529
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 6: only lost point two shots. It's just it's not the

530
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 6: end of the world. It's actually more surprising if you

531
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,959
Speaker 6: make birdie four times more surprising. And again, you just

532
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 6: use that information to really, especially these young kids. The

533
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 6: key to where I've had so much success. I mean

534
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 6: Colin more Kawas sat through my seminar in college, I

535
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,959
Speaker 6: mean Doc Redmond, just all these guys, The vast majority

536
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 6: of the young guys that you've seen out on tour

537
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,199
Speaker 6: either had my app in college or sat through my

538
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 6: seminar some random way. And the key to that is

539
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 6: your your prefrontal cortex, the brain. Like it's it's not

540
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 6: that a nineteen year old is dumb, it's that their

541
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 6: brain is literally incapable of making good decisions. It's why

542
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 6: they make a better soldier than Jason or I. Like, dude,

543
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,360
Speaker 6: they're shooting at this out there. I'm not running out

544
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 6: there and give a twenty year old a couple of

545
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 6: shots of whiskey and they'll run out there. And that's

546
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 6: just because they're not The prefrontal cortex isn't developed, they

547
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 6: don't have executive function. So that the beauty of Decade

548
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 6: is it gives you a very simple five step process

549
00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 6: to making a mathematically optimal correct decision. As long as

550
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 6: you can do you know, six minus one. You can

551
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 6: run the system in your head and now you're making

552
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 6: mathematically correct targets that a guy like Tiger when he

553
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 6: looks at he's like, yeah, that's basically how I play

554
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 6: the game. That's I don't think I'm going to change

555
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,239
Speaker 6: the vast majority of PGA Tour players the way they

556
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 6: see the game. We're going to tighten up decisions and

557
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 6: emotional control. But we're now teaching sixteen, seventeen, eighteen year

558
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 6: olds to make twenty year veteran decisions in the heat

559
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 6: of the battle. And that's that's the difference. It's mainly

560
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 6: because they're not even capable of making a good decision.

561
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 2: Scott, We've got one more major coming up this year

562
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,399
Speaker 2: in a place there might have heard.

563
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 3: Of, Augusta Nationale.

564
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,400
Speaker 2: Just just fire Bryson and you know that's that's it, Okay,

565
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 2: all right, forget the ethics stuff. We're just all putting

566
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 2: all our money on Bryson. How do you attack Augusta

567
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 2: National as a professional golfer?

568
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 5: Bunch of drivers?

569
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 6: I mean seriously, I mean, well, the thing that's so

570
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 6: funny and again like we're all guilty of this, but

571
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 6: like seven, it's super tight, it's you know, and it's

572
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 6: a four hundred and fifty yard hole, So well, I'm

573
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 6: just gonna get three with to get in and play.

574
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 6: Your three wood shot pattern is not smaller than your

575
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 6: drivers shot pattern. It has worst gear effect. It's a

576
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,680
Speaker 6: smaller head. The only thing a three wood does versus

577
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 6: your driver is go forty yards shorter. That's it and

578
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 6: so one you can carry the bunkers. Two. I've put

579
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 6: it up on Twitter today. If you can carry that

580
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 6: right bunker at like three fifteen, it's eighty yards wide

581
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 6: from tree to tree. It's a huge twos driver five's driver,

582
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 6: seven's whatever. Eight you carry the bunker, nine you carry everything.

583
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 6: Ten he'll probably still have to hit, but Bryson can

584
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 6: hit it really high. He'll probably still have to at

585
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,119
Speaker 6: a roasty draw. Three he's going straight or excuse me,

586
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 6: thirteen straight left fifteen. I think he can carry the

587
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,199
Speaker 6: trees potentially like in eighteen. Is just the funniest one ever.

588
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 6: Remember when when Tiger won in ninety seven, he just

589
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 6: blew it over the bunkers out into two fair away.

590
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 6: It's three seventeen from the back of the back tee

591
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,679
Speaker 6: box to carry the bunkers. And if Bryson brings that

592
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 6: forty eight inch driver out, it's another six or eight

593
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 6: miles an hour. I mean, he literally will just blow

594
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 6: it into two fairway and have sandwige. And I really

595
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 6: do think that what he did at Wingfoot was absolutely amazing.

596
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 6: And all the people who are just upset like he

597
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:14,920
Speaker 6: made a mockery the course. No he didn't. He just

598
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 6: played the course better than everyone else. There's nothing he

599
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,199
Speaker 6: did that was a mockery of the golf course. But

600
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 6: I will say, if he does what he's capable of

601
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,680
Speaker 6: doing at Augusta, it actually would be a mockery of

602
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 6: the intention of the design.

603
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 3: Well, speaking of.

604
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 2: That, Augusta years ago lengthened the golf course. Everyone called

605
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 2: it tiger proofing. I never understood it, because, hey, there's

606
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,160
Speaker 2: a guy who's hitting it longer than everybody else. Let's

607
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 2: make the golf course longer so it doesn't play into

608
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 2: his hands. I don't quite understand that one. But let's say,

609
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 2: whether it's Augusta or another course, Let's say they want

610
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:47,160
Speaker 2: to Bryson proof. How would you Bryson proof? How would

611
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 2: you make it so that.

612
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 3: Bryson can't be the best player on a golf course.

613
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 6: This is the funniest part about it. And again, like

614
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 6: I get in too many arguments with the architect lovers

615
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 6: on Twitter, and it's just kind of I think it's

616
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 6: kind of love hate, but I think they just hate me.

617
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,360
Speaker 6: I just kind of enjoyed the vand But the funniest

618
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 6: thing about it is, aside from the obvious, we have

619
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 6: a river or a bunker crossing the fairway at three ten,

620
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 6: like that is obviously how you do it, and I

621
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 6: think that's just lazy and unfair. We don't make Brian

622
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 6: gay putt with his wedge, So I don't think that's

623
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 6: a solution. It's just a a solution. I think it's

624
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:22,239
Speaker 6: just a really really lame one. The only way you

625
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 6: handicap this guy, aside from pinching stuff in, is with trees.

626
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 6: If you hit it further and wider, and there's just

627
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 6: a forty yard corridor between trees the whole way, And

628
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 6: so if you hit it two ninety inside forty or

629
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 6: three sixty, you've got to keep it inside forty. It's

630
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 6: the same thing for everyone. How good are you? Well?

631
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 6: The funny thing about it is the architecture lovers are

632
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:46,160
Speaker 6: in this tree removal crazing phase where they're just like, oh,

633
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 6: look how great this, of course looks with no trees, Like, well,

634
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 6: you just totally made it brisonable and that's that's just

635
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 6: a fact. The only way that's I hate saying unfair

636
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,400
Speaker 6: because that's not an actual reason. But the only way

637
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 6: that you can do it without making it unfair is

638
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 6: by trees. You have to just put something in the way.

639
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 5: Chess Reevee would be my guy if you just put

640
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,919
Speaker 5: a bunch of trees or something like that. Yeah, I

641
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:10,959
Speaker 5: mean he can't. He can't put but it's straighter than

642
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:12,160
Speaker 5: anybody's laser beams.

643
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, that's when you know Brendon Todd, these guys.

644
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 6: That's but again, there's just no The key to it

645
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 6: is is the yes, you're gonna hit maybe seven percent

646
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 6: more fairways. You know, unless you're someone like Henrik Stenson

647
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 6: who does hit down too much on the driver, does

648
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 6: hit his three wood materially better than his driver. That's

649
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 6: an anomaly. There are anomalies out there. But aside from that,

650
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 6: three wood is never the option unless you're taking out

651
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 6: a crossing hazard, which a dog leg. Even though it's

652
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,239
Speaker 6: not a crossing hazard, a dog leg is a end

653
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 6: of runway hazard. It's either driver or two iron. There's

654
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 6: never a chance of a reason to hit three wood.

655
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 6: And that's the thing that a lot of the old

656
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 6: school guys still don't quite understand. They're like, well, we

657
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 6: used to do this, Like, no, you guys hit three

658
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 6: wood all the time. You taught me to hit three wood.

659
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 6: I've played, I've played practice drums with you guys. When

660
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 6: I played in the nineteen nine and nine US Open,

661
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 6: You're like, this is a three wood for sure. I

662
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 6: hit three wood off of number one Pinehurst, number ten's

663
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 6: of six hundred and fifty yard par five. I'm like,

664
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 6: we'll just hit three wood in the fairway since we

665
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 6: can't get home. And two, I fanned it in the

666
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 6: right trees and buried my three wood in the teapots.

667
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 6: Like I remember these things from twenty one years ago

668
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 6: because I was so bad at it. But I think

669
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:17,600
Speaker 6: that's why I teach it so good now. Is that's

670
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 6: the first thing I tell a tour player when I

671
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 6: get into it, and I'm like, look, dude, I've never

672
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 6: had a crazy thought that I haven't had times ten.

673
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 6: You have to be honest with me and we'll work

674
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 6: through these thoughts that you're having, But you've got to

675
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 6: tell me the crazy stuff going on in your head,

676
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 6: because we've certainly all got it.

Speaker 5: I gotta jump in on Zalador's the Last Last Thing.

690
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 5: Yeah Yeah, this guy is a green hitting machine. I

691
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 5: believe he led the corn fairying green and regulation percentage.

692
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 5: And he's long off the tee. What do you think

693
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 5: he needs to improve on the most? How does he

694
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 5: get better?

695
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 6: He's certainly obviously you know, his main point has obviously

696
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 6: always been he's kind of struggling with putting. When he

697
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 6: went through a gross spurt when he was twelve. It

698
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 6: was also when he specialized in golf, and just the

699
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 6: increasing bone length. Must like it. Just he just got

700
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 6: into a real funky way with the putter. But he's

701
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 6: switched I don't know if it's been maybe two years

702
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 6: now to a couture style arm bar with the claw,

703
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 6: and he's hit a few putts that have been absolutely money.

704
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 6: And you just don't do what he's done this year

705
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 6: without you know, really improving that. Obviously. I play a

706
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 6: lot of golf with him back here in Dallas, but

707
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,479
Speaker 6: I haven't seen him out on the course of the road.

708
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 6: But I don't really need to, Like, there's just no

709
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 6: way you do what he's doing. Yeah, I played a

710
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 6: lot of golf. I grew up here in Plano and

711
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 6: group played a lot of golf with Fred Couples back

712
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 6: in ninety two, three and four when he was number

713
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 6: one in the world and winning everything and the Masters

714
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,720
Speaker 6: and the coolest guy on the planet. And there was

715
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 6: just something different when he hit the ball, like you've

716
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 6: just never seen or heard anything like it, and a

717
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 6: side you know again, Will I've played with that kid

718
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 6: since he was nine years old. You know, he grew up.

719
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 6: He was a junior at my home course, which is

720
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 6: why I was I was going to play in the

721
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 6: Texas Hammond and myself in twenty fourteen, but I had

722
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 6: a cortizone shot in my right arm and it paralyzed

723
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 6: my arm. So I was like, look, well I did

724
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 6: a lot of math based stuff. If you just let

725
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 6: me tell you what to do, I promise you'll win.

726
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 6: He's thirty three hundred in the world at the time,

727
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 6: it had never won more in a high school golf ferm.

728
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 6: And he goes and wins by three, and it was like,

729
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 6: oh shit, I didn't actually think that was gonna work,

730
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 6: but it did. And it was the easiest thing I've

731
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 6: ever seen, you know. I go down and caddy for

732
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 6: him at the US Junior and he wins there, and

733
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 6: it's just there is no limit for this guy. He

734
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 6: needs to get a little bit better with the putter.

735
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 6: But what you saw out of Bryson yesterday, Like again,

736
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 6: what I texted Como after everyone was kind of you know,

737
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 6: before they teed off, like and I saw how hardest plan.

738
00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 6: I text him like, Bryson's nails. That dude. I hate

739
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 6: saying a winner, but that dude has got some stones

740
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 6: and I would put Will just right there with him,

741
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 6: like he just gets it in the hole and I

742
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 6: don't care what pressure you get a curveball thrown at

743
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 6: you like pandemic this year, and man, I could be

744
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 6: on the tour next year, and he's on the tour,

745
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 6: and then all of sudden it's like, well, actually we're

746
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 6: going to turn this into a bizarre two year wrap

747
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 6: around event. And I don't think really people understand the

748
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 6: story that he's number one on the corn Ferry for

749
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 6: you know, they probably played seventy percent of the events

750
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 6: like that, dude should be done and on tour, and

751
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 6: instead they've given the top ten guys they get starts

752
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 6: in the alternate field events and that's great, but it's

753
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 6: really kind of a hex because, well, he still has

754
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 6: to keep his status on the corn Ferry Tour to

755
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 6: get his PGA Tour card for twenty twenty two. But

756
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 6: now you're not going to turn down starts on the

757
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 6: PGA Tour. And so now he's in this position where like, dude,

758
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 6: the guy I play forty two out of the next

759
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 6: fifty weeks because he's playing the crappy tournaments on the

760
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 6: PGA Tour and then every corn Ferry in order to

761
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 6: keep a status, or you go to the US Open

762
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 6: with big FedEx cup points a spotlight for sponsors and invites.

763
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 6: I mean, honestly, I think there's more pressure on him

764
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 6: a guy like Davis Riley, the other you know guys

765
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 6: from the corn Faery that were there. There's this hidden

766
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 6: pressure that nobody I didn't I guess I didn't see

767
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 6: anyone talking about it. But Will basically, I mean, he

768
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 6: won four hundred and twenty nine thousand dollars, which is

769
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 6: crazy since I've known him since he was nine yesterday,

770
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 6: but he really won probably three million yesterday because he's

771
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 6: gonna get straight out on tour, Like he literally was

772
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 6: playing for millions of dollars that nobody even knew was

773
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 6: this purse. And to go out there on Sunday and

774
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 6: post seventy one, I just I was blown away, Like again,

775
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 6: like I love the kid like a sun I've done.

776
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 6: I've caddied for him in a hundred different rounds and

777
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 6: you know, three or four events for the last three years,

778
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 6: four years, whatever it is. He's like a son. I

779
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 6: mean even I was like, it's a big ass to

780
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 6: go out there, and I'm like, shit, he did it.

781
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 6: I can't believe it. And you know, when I sent

782
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 6: him a text like Buddy, I'm so proud he's like,

783
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 6: you know, just to him is like, of course I

784
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 6: did it. It's just golf, and I'm like, that's why

785
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 6: I didn't make it. I didn't. I didn't know that

786
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 6: when I was your age. It's this guy is the

787
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 6: limit for that guy in a cliff notes, he's.

788
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 3: Got this this awesome stuff.

795
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, guys kind of two peas in the

796
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 2: pod with a lot of the stuff talking about.

797
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 6: For the US Open. It was kind of a last

798
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 6: second decision because I had so many people asking me

799
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 6: for the course packet that I make for the players, like, oh,

800
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 6: you know, it'd be kind of fun. I'm like fine

801
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:49,879
Speaker 6: on Twitter and like you know what, I'm just gonna

802
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 6: give to anyone who wants, and I was like, well,

803
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 6: I may as well just give him a free month

804
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 6: of the decade app too, So I'll put a link

805
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 6: up or tweet it out again, and I'll leave it

806
00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,440
Speaker 6: up for another month where anybody who's listening can get

807
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,959
Speaker 6: a free month of the decade app also, and see

808
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 6: where Duc and Bryson and Will and all these young

809
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:08,479
Speaker 6: kids are seeing out there doing it. Got their start, Well.

810
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 4: You got me.

811
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,879
Speaker 3: I'm doing nothing but hitting drivers from now on.

812
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 6: It sounds so simple, but actually there is thought.

813
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:13,360
Speaker 2: I know.

814
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,839
Speaker 6: That's what frustrates me is everyone toally like, oh, it's simple,

815
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 6: you just hit driver. I'm like, no, there's there is

816
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 6: actual thought going on here, especially on the approach shot strategy.

817
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 6: But yeah, send it, hit it hard.

818
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 3: And by the way, I know you tweeted it out.

819
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:26,439
Speaker 3: I tweeted out yesterday as well.

820
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 2: But Brooks Kapta twice, Dustin Johnson, Gary Woodland, and now

821
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 2: Bryson Deshambeau the last five US Open champions. Hmmm, I

822
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 2: wonder if there's a common theme going on here. So, uh,

823
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 2: Scott Fawcett, thanks so much for joining us.

Speaker 3: Fantastic stuff from Scott Fawcett.

845
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 2: He was so good, just speaking about so many different

846
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,320
Speaker 2: things around the game.

847
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,680
Speaker 5: What I'm most curious to see is how many other

848
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 5: players start really going after it. Specifically a guy like

849
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,160
Speaker 5: Tony final Oho I think has as much power in

850
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 5: the tank as anybody. I'd love to see Tony just say, hey,

851
00:36:58,160 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 5: I'm going to hit as far as I can with

852
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 5: my driver and see what happens.

853
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:04,840
Speaker 2: Sports evolve, every sport evolves, and for whatever reason, people

854
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 2: in golf hate when golf evolves. You know what, they

855
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 2: use leather helmets back then in the NFL are they

856
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 2: supposed to still do that.

857
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 4: So that's enough US Open stuff.

858
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 2: Let's get into this week's corrals put Ta Kana Resorting

859
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 2: Club Championship, Peter and look.

860
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 4: Nothing against the good folks in Punta Kana, but this

861
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:27,840
Speaker 4: is as weak a field as.

862
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 2: We will see all year on the PGA Tour, as

863
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 2: evidenced by it, and nothing against Will's Alatoris, who we

864
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 2: mentioned earlier T six of the US Open. Scott mentioned

865
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 2: he's you know, played golf and been caddying for the

866
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 2: kid his entire life.

867
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:41,839
Speaker 4: We all know how talented he is.

868
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:45,839
Speaker 2: But Will's Alatauris is a co favorite coming into this one,

869
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 2: which I'm not sure he could have done it at

870
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 2: any other event with some other big names in there.

871
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 2: But he's certainly worthy of it, and I don't see

872
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 2: anyone further back in the on the board that I

873
00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 2: would take over. Wills alatauris really as far as lower odds.

874
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 2: So let's talk just a little bit about some of

875
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:03,359
Speaker 2: the odds up there, and then we'll get into our

876
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 2: draftings line up.

877
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 4: Giddiad Let's bet horses for courses.

878
00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think Dela Torus should be right there as

879
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:14,880
Speaker 5: a favorite. I like him, and Corey Connor is a

880
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 5: ton of the top. Hoping that people will look to

881
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 5: like name guys like Hendrick Stenson or Charles Howell, I

882
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 5: guess are kind of like some some of the big names,

883
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 5: so I hope that they catch some ownership and just

884
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,399
Speaker 5: people are looking at. But I think those guys should

885
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 5: be at the top. Some other names that we'll talk

886
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 5: about with DFS two that I think are really good plays.

887
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,239
Speaker 5: Luke List, I think, you know, talent wise, he's at

888
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 5: the very top of this field. Same thing could be

889
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 5: said about Patrick Rodgers, who we've talked a lot about

890
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:42,280
Speaker 5: in this podcast. And then fellow CSU ram Martin Laird

891
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 5: is really cheap in the markets and on draftings. I

892
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 5: know he hasn't been playing much. But uh, you know

893
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 5: what I think, Martin Laird, just given the field and

894
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,359
Speaker 5: his price, I'm willing to take a shot. And that's

895
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,440
Speaker 5: what you're kinda kind of have to do in this

896
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 5: field is figure out, you know, some lesser names and

897
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:00,440
Speaker 5: figure out which war here.

898
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 2: Okay with this is a really strange one because the

899
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 2: course plays seven six hundred and seventy yards. If you

900
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 2: thought Wingfoot was long last week, this course is two

901
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,760
Speaker 2: hundred yards longer than Wingfoot was playing for the US Open.

902
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,880
Speaker 2: That said, if you go back and look at the

903
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 2: last couple of years, it was a cornferry event for

904
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 2: two years and then a PGA Tour event for the

905
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 2: last two. The guys who win here, first of all,

906
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 2: they all shoot eighteen to twenty under par. I mean,

907
00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 2: this is a birdie fest. Isn't anything like we saw

908
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,399
Speaker 2: last week, even though it's a really long golf course.

909
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 2: And secondly, it's not really the long hitters who were

910
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 2: up there. You look at the top ten or so

911
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:38,360
Speaker 2: over the last couple of years and it's basically guys

912
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 2: who chip and putt really well, which I know you

913
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 2: don't like. I know you want the sustainability of guys

914
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 2: who strike the ball really well. But we might have

915
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,319
Speaker 2: to go with some guys with a short game and

916
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 2: guys with some hot putters this week, so you and

917
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 2: I might not be on the same page with everything.

918
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,720
Speaker 2: I like Sam Burns a lot this week, He's played

919
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 2: well recently.

920
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 3: I like a few guys who sort of along the

921
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,359
Speaker 3: same line, is what you said, with just guys who

922
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 3: should be better than they are.

923
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 2: Miliano Grio is a guy that should be a top

924
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 2: fifty player in the world and just isn't, and yet

925
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,280
Speaker 2: something like this could kind of boost him back into

926
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 2: our consciousness.

927
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 3: Jonathan Vegas is a guy we talk about all the time.

928
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:20,759
Speaker 2: He's got way more talent than he's given credit for.

929
00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 2: Peter u Align is a guy that for me, he's

930
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 2: sort of like a mini Tony Finow in that I've

931
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,239
Speaker 2: lost so much money over the years betting on Tony.

932
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 3: For now in big events, I probably haven't lost.

933
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,439
Speaker 2: As much, but I've probably lost a decent amount betting

934
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 2: on Peter yu Align and small events because I keep

935
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 2: looking at him saying he's he's really good, he's really talented.

936
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,480
Speaker 3: And yet he doesn't do anything in these things. So

937
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 3: maybe this will be the week for a guy like that.

938
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 3: So let's dig in.

939
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 4: By the way, some of the young guys.

940
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,319
Speaker 2: Not only is Alataurus, but Aksha Batia is playing once

941
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 2: again in the eighteen year old and Ju Hung Kim

942
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 2: the other eighteen year old.

943
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 3: We have two eighteen year olds in the field. Batia.

944
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:55,920
Speaker 4: How about Batia?

945
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 2: He's eighteen years old and not the youngest player in

946
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 2: the field this week.

947
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 3: That to me is just mind blowing. How young and

948
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:03,720
Speaker 3: good these guys.

949
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 2: But if you're ever gonna get a chance to go

950
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 2: out and play well in a field as an eighteen

951
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 2: year old, this might be the one we.

952
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 4: Want to be a DFS millionaire. You're just one lineup away.

953
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:18,359
Speaker 2: We're gonna go with him, and you're gonna play better

954
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:19,400
Speaker 2: than you ever dreamed of.

955
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 3: God, that's what.

956
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 6: I have matter of you.

957
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:24,280
Speaker 4: So let's get drafting.

958
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:27,560
Speaker 3: Let's get into this lineup.

959
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 2: I'll give you DIBs you can start off, and I

960
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:31,960
Speaker 2: have a feeling you're to spend some money here.

961
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, let's just start off with the guy we just

962
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,759
Speaker 5: talked about, Xelatorus. I think he's a really good pick,

963
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:40,799
Speaker 5: even as the most expensive play tons of talent, and yeah,

964
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:42,600
Speaker 5: I want to be buying him as much as I

965
00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,760
Speaker 5: can in these markets, even as a favorite. I really

966
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:48,720
Speaker 5: like him and Corey Connors. I'm with you on Burns

967
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 5: as well, but those three guys are clearly at the

968
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:51,920
Speaker 5: top for me.

969
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 3: I'll let you spend that money.

970
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 2: Actually, Botia got into the field based on the fact

971
00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,640
Speaker 2: that he finished in ninth place at the Safeway Open

972
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 2: and every other field he's ever played, and he got

973
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 2: a sponsors exemption, finished outside the top one hundred, So

974
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,359
Speaker 2: I'm still lot totally sold on him, but I do

975
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,319
Speaker 2: think this could be a better week, and he's cheap.

976
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 2: He's sixty nine hundred, which for a guy that just

977
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,319
Speaker 2: top ten in a better field could and should be

978
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 2: a good week for him. So I mean, that's that's

979
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 2: a lot of pressure to put on an eighteen year old. Hey,

980
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:20,439
Speaker 2: I'm putting you in my DraftKings lineup and putting money

981
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 2: on you this week, kid.

982
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,480
Speaker 3: But hopefully he can live up to that.

983
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:25,799
Speaker 2: So since you spent some money, I'm gonna save us

984
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 2: some money and go Batia at sixty nine hundred.

985
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:30,399
Speaker 5: I want to go with Kim, who I think has

986
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,400
Speaker 5: a ton of talent and really impressed by him.

987
00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 3: Well, let's make an all a young guy lineup. What

988
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:34,560
Speaker 3: do you think?

989
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:36,800
Speaker 5: Okay, cool, let's do it. Eighty two hundred.

990
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 3: There he is. I've actually got two. Say, if you'll

991
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 3: save me enough money to get the.

992
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 5: Second one and all you can go back to back.

993
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 6: You might be.

994
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 3: Spending too much money, all right, Well, let's see it,

995
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 3: all right. The first one is Christopher Ventura.

996
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 2: It's been really good lately both on the corn Ferry

997
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:52,879
Speaker 2: and PGA tour.

998
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 3: That kid can go.

999
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 2: And if anything, he saw Matthew Wolf coming second Victor

1000
00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:59,399
Speaker 2: Hovlin top twenty at the US Open this past week,

1001
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,720
Speaker 2: college teammates of his. If he needed a little more motivation,

1002
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 2: he got it. And then another one that I think

1003
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:07,879
Speaker 2: is going to be underrated, undervalue this week. Really good

1004
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,840
Speaker 2: player who plays college golf at Vandy, plays mostly on

1005
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 2: the European Tour now and he's a really good European

1006
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 2: tour player, and I think he's going to be too

1007
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:18,879
Speaker 2: low owned after a miscut at the US Open last week.

1008
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 3: But Mattias Schwab I think could be a really good

1009
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:23,840
Speaker 3: play at eighty eight hundred. What do you think, Pete?

1010
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:25,279
Speaker 5: I love that the.

1011
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 4: Problem is I'm leaving you with six thousand. Now where

1012
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:29,880
Speaker 4: do we want to go back? And I don't know

1013
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 4: if I'm gonna be able to pick some No, it's

1014
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:34,799
Speaker 4: not good. No, we got to do something here.

1015
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 2: We've got it now that we've got more guys who

1016
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 2: do PGA Tour Live than are seen on PGA Tour Live.

1017
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,720
Speaker 2: We've got guys like Jason Bowde and Parker McLachlan. Carlos

1018
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 2: Franco is not in the field.

1019
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 3: Anymore, so we can't take him. That's too bad.

1020
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 5: I like the Schwap call a lot. Let's take him

1021
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 5: out though, because I think the ventur either one. I'm

1022
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 5: fine with you. I like Ventura a lot too.

1023
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:54,960
Speaker 3: Let me take Schwab out.

1024
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 2: Then we like Schwab unless we want to take Batia

1025
00:43:58,000 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 2: out and we'll just find like.

1026
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 5: Two good steel free. I have some guys I like

1027
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:04,919
Speaker 5: the are cheap, just not six thousand cheap.

1028
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 6: Can we do?

1029
00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 3: Can we get to sixty like a sixty four and

1030
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:08,520
Speaker 3: sixty five?

1031
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:10,799
Speaker 5: You think I'm fine with that? So you spent some mounch.

1032
00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:15,000
Speaker 2: Right, Batia is out, We're leaving in Schwab and Ventura. Okay,

1033
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 2: the whole young guy thing this is, this is like

1034
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:20,160
Speaker 2: the most we've ever kind of most time we've spent

1035
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 2: like going over and creating lineup, we're usually like boom

1036
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 2: boom boom.

1037
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:24,239
Speaker 6: But this is good.

1038
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:26,360
Speaker 5: I told, I told you I like Martin Laired. He

1039
00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 5: shot sixty eight the first round in the Safeway. They

1040
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:29,839
Speaker 5: had a bad round, seventy.

1041
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,120
Speaker 3: Five sixty six Martin.

1042
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,279
Speaker 5: Oh, there we have our boy who has not been

1043
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:39,720
Speaker 5: playing well, but we gotta take him. In terms of talent,

1044
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,080
Speaker 5: we're two guys that are friends of friends of the podcast,

1045
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 5: but one of her.

1046
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,360
Speaker 3: Friends of friends. Oh oh, friends of friends of the

1047
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:48,440
Speaker 3: podcast have to get in.

1048
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:50,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is the love Mark.

1049
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:53,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, you can bang it all over

1050
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 3: the place. Why not.

1051
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,120
Speaker 2: I'm looking at the results that he hasn't played anywhere

1052
00:44:57,160 --> 00:45:00,800
Speaker 2: since third week of July the three M opening, starting

1053
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:01,320
Speaker 2: to turn.

1054
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,360
Speaker 5: It around a little bit, and just hasn't had the chances.

1055
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:04,880
Speaker 5: And this is I mean, he's got to go out

1056
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:06,360
Speaker 5: there thinking he has a chance in this field.

1057
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 2: Months ago, Keegan Bradley came on the podcast and said,

1058
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:10,719
Speaker 2: watch out for Jamie love Mark.

1059
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:13,160
Speaker 3: If I'm taking one guy. Was that was a Keygeer

1060
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 3: Luke Donald that said that. I thought it was Kegan.

1061
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 5: You said it, Luke Donald send it, and I think

1062
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 5: Brendan might have texted us too.

1063
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:21,400
Speaker 2: Then that's three PGA Tour players now graad they're all

1064
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 2: friends with them.

1065
00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 3: But uh, and that's why I find.

1066
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:27,080
Speaker 2: If you ever asked, yeah, you ever asked a PGA

1067
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 2: Tour player, hey, who do you like to break out?

1068
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:30,840
Speaker 2: He's gonna pick one of his buddies that play that

1069
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,440
Speaker 2: he plays a lot of golf with and says, oh,

1070
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 2: that guy, you know, I just saw him.

1071
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:34,919
Speaker 3: He played really well.

1072
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,440
Speaker 2: So that is a very very eclectic lineup at the corrals,

1073
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:42,040
Speaker 2: put to Kanda of juw Young, Kim Martin Lair, Jamie

1074
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:46,759
Speaker 2: Lovemark Matia Schwab, Christopher Ventura, will Zalatorus. If I get

1075
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:49,560
Speaker 2: a tweet from somebody as I did last week, who

1076
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 2: said I swear I have the same lineup as you guys,

1077
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,280
Speaker 2: and then I listened to the pod and you guys

1078
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 2: picked out the exact same lineup, I can't imagine that's

1079
00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:57,919
Speaker 2: happening this week.

1080
00:45:57,960 --> 00:45:59,800
Speaker 5: Peter, you're calling the buff that's what you're saying.
