Speaker 2: one's gonna be fun. Last week was one for the fans.

12
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,639
Speaker 2: This is one where you got dig deep. You might

13
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 2: not know all the names you're picking what it's gonna

14
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 2: be fun to bet on. We're gonna do our five questions.

15
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 2: We're gonna make our DFS line up. But first let's

16
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 2: review this past weekend. Jay Ray, how you doing? And man,

17
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 2: that guy, I guess he's pretty goodt golf.

18
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 4: Up pretty good, you know, doing well. Was a great

19
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 4: week of golf, even if you didn't pick any winners

20
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 4: going into it, just as a fan, just such an

21
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 4: exciting week, you know, great, great golf course conditions were awesome.

22
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 4: Definitely Westwood in the mix again, was a great story

23
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 4: and then.

24
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 2: Just the absolute clinic.

25
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 4: JT put on on the weekend to put some perspective

26
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 4: on how good his ball striking was. He had the

27
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 4: best strokes came tee to Green Weekend ever at TPC

28
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,199
Speaker 4: Sawgrass since they started tracking it almost twenty years ago.

29
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 2: So just absolutely lit it up.

30
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 4: Great finish, a lot of guys in the mix coming

31
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,679
Speaker 4: down the stretch, the big golfer nearly going back to back, Bryson,

32
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 4: a lot of fun and I hear you did pretty well,

33
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 4: my friend.

34
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 2: I had a decent week. I will say that my

35
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 2: guess is some number close to one hundred percent of

36
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 2: the people listening to this podcast right now have some

37
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 2: usual action on the PGA Tour events. Look it if

38
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: you don't usually have action and you're just like, hey,

39
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 2: I like golf and I like listening to what you

40
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 2: guys talk about and listen to your picks everywhere.

41
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 4: Look, we're not going to blame you. Two incredibly charming men,

42
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 4: very knowledgeable.

43
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 2: We're great. We look terrific on a podcast as long

44
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 2: as you don't have to look at us. But I'm

45
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 2: guessing most people have some actions. So I'm preaching to

46
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 2: the choir here. But after going through a very sweaty

47
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 2: Saturday and Sunday myself. The people who are watching golf

48
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 2: on the weekends, and no offense, really, I mean no

49
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 2: offense to the fans out there, and there are millions

50
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 2: of them who are watching on any given weekend, just

51
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 2: you know, to see what's happening and just to see

52
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,399
Speaker 2: those little white balls flying through the air and going

53
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 2: into the hole. If you're doing it without having any action,

54
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 2: you're completely doing it wrong, because having a sweat on

55
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 2: the weekend of a PGA Tour event is the most exhilarating, slashed,

56
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 2: most dreadful experience you can have while sitting under your

57
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 2: couch watching TV.

58
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 4: It's fun, isn't it, especially when you come out on

59
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 4: the right side of it. I had JT to top five,

60
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 4: I had Bryce in the top five. I gave out

61
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 4: those two on the gimme last week, so I was

62
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 4: pretty happy with how it was going. Went pretty well.

63
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 4: I didn't have any big time winning teams like you

64
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 4: may have, but you know, anytime you've got that going

65
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 4: into it, it just adds another level to it, doesn't it.

66
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 4: Just another layer of intensity that you've got from a

67
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 4: viewing perspective, and on the other end too, Like I

68
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 4: work with Sky Sports every weekend and I'm grinding away

69
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 4: looking things up, and at the same time, I'm like, yeah,

70
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 4: price it with the Eagle at sixteen, I'm gonna get

71
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 4: I'm you know, So there's a there's a back and

72
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 4: forth where you try to keep your professionalism and stuff,

73
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 4: and you know, at the same time you're fired up

74
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 4: when one of your picks makes you a little return

75
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 4: on the back end. For sure.

76
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. And I know some people listening right

77
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 2: now are gonna go, so, well, what the hell you

78
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 2: have a sweat guy? You had pick Patrick Cantley to

79
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 2: win this thing last week. I want to clarify because,

80
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 2: first of all, yes, I will own it. My favorite

81
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 2: play out right last week was Patrick Canley. Now, if

82
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 2: you're basically just taking one favorite play this week and

83
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 2: taking him outright and go that's it. That's my play

84
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 2: for the week, I'm done. Fingers crossed. Hope he wins.

85
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 2: There's nothing wrong with that. I mean, I know people

86
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 2: who go, hey, you know what, I'm gonna put down

87
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 2: twenty bucks. I'm gonna pick one guy that's my guy

88
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,559
Speaker 2: for the week. I'm gonna ride with him. I'm probably

89
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 2: gonna lose, but maybe once in a while I have

90
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 2: a little sweat and I have something to watch on Sunday,

91
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 2: that's fine. I am hedging all over the place. And

92
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 2: whether it's with the bets, I did have a couple

93
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 2: of JT tickets going into the week last week. Whether

94
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 2: you're picking guys up along the way, Hey, it's mid Friday,

95
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 2: and you know this guy ball strike numbers look pretty good.

96
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 2: I'm gonna throw a little live outright on him. Whether

97
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 2: it's a weekend and single round DFS contest, Oh well,

98
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 2: that you know can make someone nice little profit, nice

99
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 2: little ROI I speak from experience there, so yeah, I

100
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 2: mean there are different ways of doing this where it's

101
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 2: not just hey, I heard your pick and your pick

102
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,280
Speaker 2: wasn't good. I had a couple of people on Twitter say, oh,

103
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 2: a nice pick with Canley last week. I guess you

104
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 2: really crap the bed with you know. I'm yeah, okay,

105
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 2: I yes, I picked Cantley. Doesn't mean though, that just

106
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:12,599
Speaker 2: because your number one favorite pick of the week doesn't win,

107
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 2: doesn't even make the cut, that you can't turn a

108
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 2: profit that week.

109
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 4: You can make ROI if you can get some money

110
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 4: back on it if you mix it up a little bit.

111
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 4: For example, Sunday morning, I knew I had Bryson top five.

112
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 4: I knew I had JT Top five. I had some

113
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 4: good action going with a couple DFS teams. But just

114
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 4: in case the impossible happened, I threw five bucks on

115
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 4: Doug Gimmett, like eighty to one to win. Why on

116
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 4: Sunday morning?

117
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 2: Why not?

118
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,279
Speaker 4: Because we've seen all cut Craig Perks won the Players

119
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 4: Championship in his debut. You know, why not Doug gims

120
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 4: a former number one AM in the world. What if

121
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 4: he goes out, has the day of his life shoot

122
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,799
Speaker 4: sixty seven, wins the golf tournament. I don't know could happen.

123
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,159
Speaker 4: It didn't, but it only cost me five dollars, so

124
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 4: you know whatever. Like you know, I'm not throwing anything

125
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 4: away on it, but you gotta have a little multiple

126
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:55,840
Speaker 4: irons in the fire. You know, it gives you a

127
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,359
Speaker 4: little more to look forward to.

128
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 2: I love making those plays. I mean, I guess, well,

129
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 2: the smartest play would have just been JT. But I

130
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 2: think there would have been a smart play on Corey Connors,

131
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 2: you know, Brian Harmon, somebody like that. Going into Sunday

132
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 2: where you're sitting there. Hey, Okay, I didn't win, but

133
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, man, that was really fun. Like,

134
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 2: my guy was in it for a good solid three hours.

135
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 2: I was watching the leaderboard, watched him on TV. I

136
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 2: had a little sweat that was worth it for me

137
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 2: to throw five bucks on him and get something out

138
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 2: of it. And even you doing that with Doug Gim. Okay,

139
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 2: So Doug Gimm didn't win. You're not mad at Doug

140
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 2: Gim right now? Like, man, I could have won so

141
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 2: much money if you would just you know, all you

142
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,599
Speaker 2: had to do was shave twelve strokes off your final

143
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 2: round score. I could have won this thing.

144
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 4: Come on, man. Yeah, speaking of being in it till

145
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 4: the end, Lee Westwood again for a second week in

146
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,359
Speaker 4: a row, right there, knocking on the door of what

147
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 4: would have been an enormous victory. I mean, this week

148
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 4: would have been probably, you know, the biggest victory of

149
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 4: his career. I don't think you can dispute that. Yeah,

150
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 4: So my number here to give you contact on Westwood

151
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 4: fifty four whole leader in back to back weeks, fifteen

152
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 4: guys have done that, and back to back weeks on

153
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 4: the PGA Tour over the last fifteen years, twelve of

154
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 4: them won at least once, so only three of them

155
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 4: didn't win at all. Lee Daniel Summer Hayes in twenty thirteen,

156
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 4: who did a like Barbasol and John Deere and Jordan

157
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 4: Spieth earlier this year. It's very rare that it happens

158
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 4: where a guy has the fifty four leading back to

159
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 4: back weeks, but even more rare than he doesn't break

160
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 4: through the victory in either one of them. So just

161
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 4: a heartbreaking defeat. But at the same time, I feel

162
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 4: great story. Lee Westwood's back in the top twenty in

163
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 4: the world's ball striking is as good as maybe this

164
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 4: stretch as good as I've ever seen a guy of

165
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 4: you know, I've had the pleasure of following my entire career.

166
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 4: You know, he would have been the oldest European PGA

167
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 4: Tour winner. Our fifteenth club numbers have him as a

168
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 4: He's most likely going to be on the European Ryder

169
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 4: Cup team, which is an amazing story because if he

170
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 4: makes the Ryder Cup team at forty eight, he's older

171
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 4: than each of the last five year and Ryder Cup captain.

172
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 4: Wow it's crazy. So just it's it's tough that he

173
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 4: didn't win. I know that it would have been a

174
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 4: great story if he did, but you know, it almost

175
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 4: fits the narrative better for Westwood that he didn't. You know,

176
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 4: it just kind of fits perfectly with his career. The

177
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 4: man has the most top three finishes without a major

178
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 4: championship win in the history of the sport. So it's

179
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 4: tough to feel terrible about watching Lee the last two weeks.

180
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 4: But at the same time, if you're a big time

181
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 4: Lee Westwood fan, or if you had a ticket on

182
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 4: him going into this week or even last, I feel

183
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 4: for you.

184
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 2: I echo pretty much everything you just said there about

185
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 2: Lee Westwood. Yes, feel bad for anyone who is sitting

186
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 2: on a Westwood ticket to win over the last couple

187
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 2: of weeks. I mean, really, a couple of putts roll

188
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 2: the right way or the wrong way for him or

189
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 2: a couple other guys, and he's looking at back to

190
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 2: back victories at Bayhill and TVC Sawgrass were like, oh

191
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 2: my god, Lee Westwood's a top five golfer in the world. Again.

192
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 2: I look at him, and so it just he he

193
00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 2: just got so close. I get the sense from Lee

194
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 2: that he's not too broken up about it. I think

195
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,199
Speaker 2: some other guys would see some heartbreaking, that some pessimism.

196
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 2: Lee's living his best life right now.

197
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 4: He won two and a half million in the last

198
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 4: two weeks. And I read today Monday, when we're recording

199
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 4: this that he went to Augusta National and play golf

200
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 4: with his son.

201
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 2: He did. Lee's doing all right.

202
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 4: He's gonna happen. He had a nice glass of red

203
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 4: Sunday night, maybe two or three.

204
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 2: Maybe.

205
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 4: Man, the man's in a good spot.

206
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 2: He is living a good life right now. I will

207
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 2: say this much, and I don't want to look. I

208
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 2: don't want to rain on the Lee Westwood parade that's

209
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: going on. But I tweeted about Lee after the final

210
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 2: round on Sunday, I said, man, hell of a two weeks.

211
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 2: Put on a great show. And I had at least

212
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 2: ten twelve tweeters reply with already getting my Westwood ticket

213
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 2: ready for the Masters in a couple of weeks.

214
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 4: Whoa slow down?

215
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 2: Now. I love what he's done over the last few weeks.

216
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 2: I love how he's played. I don't think he's necessarily

217
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 2: going anywhere. I would think that this is probably the

218
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 2: peak of what Lee Westwood could do over the past

219
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 2: couple of weeks. Yeah, I'm going to continue this for

220
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 2: a few more weeks after this. I'm not sure I

221
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,719
Speaker 2: see anything better than necessarily what we've seen from Lee

222
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 2: west Would.

223
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 4: He said the most screens in regulation in the last

224
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 4: two weeks of any player, leads all the last two weeks.

225
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 4: He leads in Part four scoring. I just don't know

226
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 4: if it's something he can maintain at this stage, just

227
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 4: numbers wise. As an analytics statistics guy, this is what

228
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 4: I do. There's going to be a drop off eventually.

229
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 2: It might not come this week.

230
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 4: There are some things that go into PGA national where

231
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 4: he's playing again amazingly three straight weeks in the US,

232
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 4: which you almost never see Lee west would play. He's

233
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 4: got a nice history at PGA Nationals career behind a Classic.

234
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 4: This is a tournament that really favors really good iron play,

235
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 4: which is what has been exemplary for him the last

236
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 4: couple of weeks. So maybe it continues and we have

237
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 4: another week forty eight year old contending for twelve straight

238
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 4: rounds on the PGA Tour. That's tough to ask for,

239
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 4: but you may not. The value may not be there

240
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,599
Speaker 4: in terms of the number, in terms of you know,

241
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 4: betting to win or top ten. But he could have

242
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,959
Speaker 4: some more success this week. I wouldn't be surprised.

243
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we'll get into what we like for the

244
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 2: Honda in just a couple of minutes here. Any last thoughts.

245
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 2: I thought TVC Sawgrass was great. I got into an

246
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 2: argument with Michael Collins on Hitting the Green, our radio

247
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 2: show on Serius XMPGA Tour channel that he thought it

248
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 2: wasn't fair to the players that the course played so

249
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 2: differently from one round to the next. And my contention was,

250
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 2: that's exactly what it should do. Give them a hard day,

251
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 2: then give them an easy day. The didn't give them

252
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 2: a medium day, then give them another hard day. Like

253
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 2: I just love the fact that based on how they

254
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 2: set up the golf course, it can change what the

255
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 2: overall scoring average is, just based on some pin placements

256
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,079
Speaker 2: and some other you know, maybe where the tea boxes

257
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 2: are just a little bit. I love the fact that

258
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,559
Speaker 2: this is an outdoor sport. He played different on a

259
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 2: daily basis, and we're not doing this in a dome

260
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 2: with the same dimension every single time.

261
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 4: For sure, And I think that's inherent to The genius

262
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 4: of the Pete Die design of that golf course is

263
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 4: that you can do a lot of different things from

264
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 4: a setup perspective that generates different needs of skills and

265
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 4: approach shots and different things. You got to see around

266
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 4: the greens, and I thought it was great. I thought

267
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 4: it was terrific to see that kind of variance and unpredictability.

268
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 4: The biggest thing I took away. I know he didn't

269
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 4: win the golf tournament, but Bryson to Shamba nearly won

270
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,439
Speaker 4: with an absolutely average strokes gained off the team performance.

271
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 4: He was not very good t Degreen on the weekend,

272
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 4: and he nearly won the golf tournament Saturday. He put

273
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 4: it out of his mind. He was second in the

274
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 4: field and strokes gain putting. He lost strokes to the

275
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 4: field on Sunday. If he just gains maybe half a

276
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 4: stroke on the field with his putter, he might have

277
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,679
Speaker 4: been in a playoff with Justin Thomas. And I think

278
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 4: that's something to really take away moving forward, is that

279
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 4: you know this guy is a complete player. It's not

280
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 4: just somebody who hits the ball a long way. This

281
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 4: isn't Happy Gilmore two point zero or anything. This is

282
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 4: a dude who is skilled through the bag and he's

283
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 4: going to be a force to be reckoned with and

284
00:12:58,920 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 4: any golf course he goes.

285
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 2: I tweeted it on Sunday said, a lot of people

286
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 2: have been chasing after a lot of players have been

287
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 2: chasing after Bryson's speed and distance. Maybe they go chase

288
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,680
Speaker 2: after his putting stroke. I mean, and I think you

289
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 2: tweeted it as well that Bryson leads the PGA Tour

290
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 2: and are three scoring average, doesn't he he does?

291
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 4: Correct?

292
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 2: I mean, I just if you're not seeing what the

293
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 2: whole complete picture looks like, you're just not looking. You

294
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 2: just want to look at it. Oh man, he crushes

295
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 2: it off the tee. Yeah, but look, long drive guys

296
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 2: can go out to TVC Sawgrass. Uh, They're not challenging

297
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 2: for the title out there. They're not winning at Bayhill

298
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 2: just because they hit the ball far. You've got to

299
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 2: have a complete game, and he does indeed have that.

300
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 4: And I've sung this this, you know, I've been the

301
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 4: choir on this before. But in terms of you know,

302
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 4: we talk about the explosiveness off the tee in terms

303
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 4: of the driver, but I think maybe the even bigger

304
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,319
Speaker 4: benefit is that Bryson can hit nine iron when other

305
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 4: guys are hitting six out of the rough. And that's

306
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 4: what that's what he won with at wing Foot is

307
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 4: his ability to hit the ball higher, with more trajectory

308
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 4: and land it in better space on the green and

309
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,199
Speaker 4: have more birdie opportunities when he missed the fairway. Whereas

310
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 4: you know, if Lee Westwood is hitting six iron out

311
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 4: of the fairway and Bryson is hitting nine iron out

312
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 4: of the rough, Bryson is gonna have a better average

313
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 4: proximity of the hole than Lee Westwood. Is just the

314
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 4: nature of it. And that's one of the big advantages

315
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 4: in terms of his distance that I don't think it's

316
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 4: talked about enough. We love to talk about the driver

317
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 4: and you know, oh, he hit this one three forty

318
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 4: off the teer, he carried the water at Bayhill, whatever

319
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 4: it might be. The bigger picture thing for me is

320
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 4: his ability to do that hitting the shorter irons out

321
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 4: of the rough with higher loft that he's able to

322
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 4: land and get in a position to make more birdies.

323
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 2: Last thing we bought before we move on to the

324
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 2: five questions, then get into our Honda breakdown. Have you

325
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 2: ever seen a two minute span, especially in a final

326
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 2: round of a big event that featured a shank, a

327
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 2: top and a slice.

328
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 4: Brendon Toddles hit the Flower Island.

329
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 2: What do you do? Can you get out there? That's

330
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 2: the question that everyone was asking. I was waiting for

331
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 2: you to have the answer to that. I have.

332
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 4: I have no numbers on that. I don't know if

333
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 4: you want to ever hit the Flower Island. Flower Island

334
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 4: sounds like the Third World in like Super Mario for

335
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 4: Super Nintendo, Like can can Luigi conquer Flower Island? Rescue

336
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 4: the princes? Like he almost hit that? And then the

337
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 4: Bryson shot.

338
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 2: Was it like a chunk knuckle?

339
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 4: I don't know what that was.

340
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 2: Bryson said he didn't top it, and then later said,

341
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 2: like the driver the face of it cracked. Bryson that

342
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 2: time looked.

343
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 4: That thing looked like a Tim Wakefield one two, two

344
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 4: thousand and four pitch on the outside corner, off the face.

345
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 4: I don't know what that was. And then Westwood get

346
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 4: it off the planet with his shot.

347
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 2: Westwood, I just tweeted the word what, yeah, poor Westwood.

348
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 2: I mean, it wasn't a good t shot, But if

349
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 2: he did that without the vacuum of the other couple

350
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 2: of things happening. It's like, Okay, you know he sliced

351
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 2: one off the off the fourth tee. You know that

352
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 2: wasn't good, But he done it at Buffalo in a row.

353
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 2: And we throw Westwood in with these like shots that

354
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 2: we've never seen before. Bryson, by the way, on thigh,

355
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 2: I've hit it two hundred and twenty four yards longer

356
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 2: than he did on four. I need some sort of

357
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 2: stat he bounced back driving stat on whether that's the

358
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 2: longest the biggest differential between drives that we've seen in

359
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 2: a while.

360
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 4: It was like the old Buffalo Wild Wings commercial where

361
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 4: the guy hits the button to get them to go

362
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 4: to overtime and like the sprinklers pop up on the

363
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 4: football field and trip the guy in the one yard

364
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 4: line or whatever. Like it was like a it was

365
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 4: an unbelievable sequence. Yeah, I mean just crazy. And I

366
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 4: have a question for you later when we do our

367
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 4: five questions kind of related to that, but just a

368
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 4: crazy twenty minutes. It was the most it was maybe

369
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 4: the most entertaining stretch of the weekend. And then you

370
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 4: saw some beautiful shot making down the stretch. But that

371
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 4: part was just it was a reminder of just how

372
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 4: difficult this game is.

373
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we never see that kind of stuff. Maybe

374
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 2: on a Thursday afternoon they go, hey, let's go to Jones,

375
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 2: who's plus seven playing the thirteenth, and you're like, why

376
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 2: are they shot? Oh, that's why.

377
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 4: I mean, ninety nine percent of golfers only are scene

378
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 4: on golf telecasts when they're playing their best, the exception

379
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 4: being like the top guys in the world in the

380
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 4: first two rounds. But you never see like Martin Trainer

381
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 4: scrapping out there off six straight MC's. You know, on

382
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 4: a Let's go live, we're gonna follow every shot of

383
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 4: Martin Trainer. Did I'm sorry to pick on Martin.

384
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 2: Every shot live. That's what every shot live means. Yeah,

385
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,160
Speaker 2: it's not just it's not just.

386
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 4: The opportunity to hear every player in the world curse unknowingly,

387
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 4: which they warned against. It's the it's every shot, which

388
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 4: maybe one of the highlights of the weekend Speef accidentally

389
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 4: hitting into Rory Sabatini, which I don't know if you

390
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 4: saw that. I thought of it, and I was like,

391
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 4: they're just like us, Like I've done that before on

392
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 4: accident where I don't see the guy down in the

393
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 4: fairway and hm, all of a sudden, you've got an

394
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 4: angry dude on the next tea box and you've gotta

395
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 4: apologize too, so mm hmm.

396
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 2: And that was wild and Moricau and their caddies were

397
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 2: fantastic as well. So h yeah. The if you all

398
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 2: watch that video, it's been taken down by the PJ

399
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 2: Tour and you can't. But other than that, I thought

400
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 2: it was I thought it was great. So yeah, let's

401
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 2: get to those five questions.

402
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 1: Five minutes, five questions you never asked.

403
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 4: I gotta be honest with you.

404
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 3: I get a little irritated when somebody called me away

405
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 3: from my golf.

406
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: This is five under.

407
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 4: Okay, let's get right out of the gates. We're going

408
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,640
Speaker 4: back to our guy, Lee west would we talked about earlier,

409
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 4: former world number one, twenty five European Tour wins, but

410
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 4: he's never won a major, a WGC or a Players Championship.

411
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 4: So I want to ask you whose career would you

412
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:39,360
Speaker 4: rather have? Lee Westwood or gram McDowell. Gram McDowell US

413
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:43,679
Speaker 4: Open champion. He's got close to double digit European Tour wins.

414
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 4: The big, the big one that McDowell has or Lee Westwood. Oh,

415
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 4: we don't see these beforehand. This is off top. Yeah, no,

416
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 4: this is no research beforehand.

417
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 2: I will go to Lee Westwood. I say all the time, like, look,

418
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,360
Speaker 2: big tournaments are great. Want to win major championships, and

419
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 2: you know everyone does. This is a job, this employment,

420
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,160
Speaker 2: but trump by the bills around here. Lee Westwood, I'm guessing,

421
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 2: has made three times more than Graham McDowell in his career,

422
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 2: at least at least yeah, give it, give me the Benjamins.

423
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 4: Okay, fair enough. You'll notice in who I picked, I

424
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 4: didn't want to pick a one time Masters winner because

425
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 4: you go back every year, it feels like there might

426
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 4: be more off course earnings throughout your lifetime for being

427
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,439
Speaker 4: a one time major winner who won the Masters, like.

428
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,439
Speaker 2: Loue Westwood versus Danny Willett could be a very different

429
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 2: question than Lee Westwood against Gram McDowell, right, or like Mike.

430
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 4: Weir or somebody like that, like something that you think

431
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 4: you could bank off of. So same kind of vein

432
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 4: whose career would you rather have? Lee Westwood? This question

433
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 4: number two, Lee Westwood or Louis Tasm. Louis won at

434
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 4: Saint Andrews won the Open Championship by seven shots and

435
00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 4: I were there. Uh, He's won the runner up Grand

436
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 4: Slam of the Majors and an amazing achievement in and

437
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 4: up itself. It's kind of like you know Bride'smaid deal there.

438
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:10,400
Speaker 2: Westwood or Ustasm without having I mean, I know, they're

439
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 2: victory totals sort of without having like career earnings and

440
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,679
Speaker 2: other's got us.

441
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,400
Speaker 4: He's like ten years younger than Westwood too, so keep

442
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 4: in mind maybe some potential now down the.

443
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 2: Road, though I think Louis Husseys would.

444
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:23,919
Speaker 4: Rather drive his tractor on his farm.

445
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 2: Yes, well, and that's that was That's actually what I'm

446
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 2: thinking about, which is now, am I just taking their

447
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 2: careers and taking their numbers and picking one or the other,

448
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 2: or am I inhabiting the bodies of either of these

449
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:41,199
Speaker 2: two men. I've always thought that Louis Hustaysan swing with

450
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 2: my commitment for excellence would be a very nice combination,

451
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 2: and I think I could probably win some more titles. Basically,

452
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 2: what I'm saying, if I had Louis Swing, I'd have

453
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 2: six majors right now. Louis does not, and so I

454
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 2: think Louis could use a little sobl in him to

455
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,160
Speaker 2: help him out get there. So I will take Louis

456
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:01,639
Speaker 2: u dayson.

457
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 4: Okay, Nice, I think i'd answer the same way you did.

458
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,160
Speaker 4: I think i'd take Westwood over Graham Graham's. I think

459
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 4: Graham's had an awesome career for his skill set too.

460
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 4: A guy doesn't hit the ball very far in that

461
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 4: major win at Pebble Beach in retrospect crazy week, I mean,

462
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 4: I didn't mean to get on this tangent, but Tiger

463
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 4: was right there, Ernie was in the mix. It was

464
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 4: a really memorable day. I think i'd take eustays In

465
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:23,159
Speaker 4: over Westwood too.

466
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 2: And behind the scenes stuff for Graham's win was fantastic

467
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 2: as well.

468
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure, all right. Question three. Justin Thomas is

469
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 4: now won fourteen times on the PGA Tour. He's twenty

470
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 4: seven years old, Dustin Johnson twenty four wins thirty six

471
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 4: years old. Who ends up with more PGA Tour wins?

472
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 4: Justin Thomas or Dustin Johnson j T.

473
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 2: Don't think it's close? Wow?

474
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 4: Okay you think so? DJ, I could see. I don't

475
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 4: think anything's stopping him from getting the thirty. Thirty is

476
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 4: a big number, Okay, so you think Justin Thomas and

477
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 4: not close.

478
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 2: He's JT twenty nine.

479
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 4: Twenty seven, seven j twenty seven. Four guys have won

480
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 4: and this is my favorite note that I came up

481
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 4: with all week. Four guys have won fourteen times in

482
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 4: the modern era before age twenty eight, Jack Nicholas, Johnny Miller,

483
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:12,880
Speaker 4: Tiger Woods, and Justin Thomas.

484
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 2: You love those stats. You love the stats when it's Hey,

485
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 2: look at the guy who won today, and here's a comparison,

486
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 2: and Jack and Tiger are like the only other guys

487
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 2: that did it.

488
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 4: You love those love them absolutely, that's the good stuff.

489
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,640
Speaker 2: Two weeks ago you were doing the same stuff with Hey,

490
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,919
Speaker 2: here's Colin Moricowe. He was the only one to do

491
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 2: this and the other one Tiger Woods.

492
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 4: We're all about contextualizing the achievement in the moment, Jason.

493
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 4: We're trying to put up. We're trying to paint a picture.

494
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 4: I have cracked the four man doing at this rate

495
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 4: in his career.

496
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,399
Speaker 2: All right, good number four on the heels of JT winning.

497
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 4: If you had to rank the top three favorites for

498
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 4: the Masters right now, who are they? And I'm happy

499
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,360
Speaker 4: to give you mine first. If you'd like to think

500
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 4: about it.

501
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 2: Okay, so it's top three favorites, not my top three,

502
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 2: like if I'm betting on it right now, not my

503
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:06,360
Speaker 2: top three.

504
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,919
Speaker 4: Bet Just who you think are the top three on

505
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 4: the board right now going into AUGUSTA Nashville.

506
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 2: I still think DJ has to be number one.

507
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 4: Sam.

508
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,439
Speaker 2: I know he hasn't played great for two weeks, but

509
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 2: he's shown that he can turn it around really, really quickly,

510
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,320
Speaker 2: so I'm not worried about DJ. He has to be

511
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,880
Speaker 2: at the top. Defending champ. JT moves into number two

512
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 2: on my list.

513
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 4: Same. Uh, it's interesting to me.

514
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,640
Speaker 2: I think we're assuming that brooks Kopka is still injured

515
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,879
Speaker 2: and may not play, and he's not. This is not

516
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 2: This is like real world situation, not idealistic like yay,

517
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,680
Speaker 2: everyone being obire woods whatever.

518
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

519
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, obviously obviously he won't be there.

520
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 2: Uh.

521
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 4: This is where I this is where I like the

522
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 4: question because I'm with you too. I think the first

523
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 4: two are pretty easy. My third guy is probably John

524
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 4: Rahm based on how well he's played the Masters in

525
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 4: his career. And then I wrote that down realized I

526
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 4: just wrote down one, two, and three in the world

527
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 4: ranking that was very disappointed in myself. So but that

528
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 4: might be the answer. It might be the probably the answer.

529
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 2: I mean, I I can sit here and go contrary

530
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 2: and say Xander shafflet Xanderson one in it's coming on

531
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 2: two and a half years now in a minute.

532
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, a ton of run around finishes a lot of

533
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,360
Speaker 4: world ranking points and money and all that.

534
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 2: But based on that, you certainly like I like Tony

535
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 2: fen Now a lot for this thing. Patrick Reid, you know,

536
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,199
Speaker 2: and I've said a couple of weeks ago, Yeah, I like.

537
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 2: I like Patrick Reid from the Masters. I think he's

538
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 2: gonna play really really well there. I think it has

539
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 2: a great chance to win. I want to bet on

540
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 2: him right now. I haven't done it.

541
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:40,200
Speaker 4: He got Jordan's speed.

542
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 2: I like speed. I there are three guys. Okay, so

543
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 2: there's probably another question that you work and ask me,

544
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 2: But uh no, the.

545
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,199
Speaker 4: Next one is about it involves the phrase chunk knuckle

546
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 4: metal would so no.

547
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 2: Okay, the three guys that if this question was a

548
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 2: little different, and I'll answer a totally different question. Uh,

549
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 2: if you had to put future bets on three players

550
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 2: for the Masters right now, who would it be. I'm

551
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 2: going read speak, and probably Jason Day.

552
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,679
Speaker 4: Oh okay, Jason Day finally getting healthy and putting some

553
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 4: numbers together that make him look.

554
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 2: Like sneakily good numbers and good results.

555
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 4: Maybe that's the next, you know, former number one major

556
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 4: champion renaissance type that we see later in the year

557
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 4: that we kind of saw with Jordan. All Right, that's

558
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 4: a good call. I gave you my top three. I

559
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 4: think that's a that's a good list. Xander's interesting. Female

560
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 4: is interesting, and I'd love to see where Jordan Spieth

561
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 4: ends up by the time we get there, especially if

562
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,639
Speaker 4: he picks off a win between now and then, because

563
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 4: then I think it gets even more binding. Jordan Speed's

564
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 4: second all time in strokes game per round at the Masters,

565
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 4: he trails only Ben Hogan. Tiger Woods is third number five. Sunday,

566
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 4: in the span of ten minutes, as we talked about

567
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,919
Speaker 4: Brendan Todd nearly hit Flower Island and Bryson hit a

568
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,239
Speaker 4: chunk knuckle metal wood, I think I want to call that.

569
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 4: I like that phrase off the tea. What is the

570
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 4: single worst shot you can remember in championship golf.

571
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 2: I'm not talking like Van der Veld's.

572
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 4: Collapse or anything like that not in the moment, just

573
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 4: the worst golf shot you can remember in a in

574
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 4: championship golf, big time tournament golf.

575
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,239
Speaker 2: I'm sure there are so many of them. People are

576
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,360
Speaker 2: gonna like write to us and tweeted us and say.

577
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 4: How you let me Yeah, let me give you a

578
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 4: few lines because I figured that I'll spark some memories. Okay,

579
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,360
Speaker 4: Web Simpson shank at the Masters four or.

580
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 2: Five years ago, he's just all the time.

581
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 4: Oh, just a remarkable moment, just a world class player.

582
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 4: And you see it and you're like, they're they're like

583
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 4: us sometimes. Uh. There was event in Europe a few

584
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 4: years ago where Sergio hit a terrible drive, took off

585
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 4: his shoe and threw it into the crowd. I encourage

586
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 4: anyone out there to google Sergio throw's shoe into the crowd.

587
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:59,680
Speaker 4: Incredible moment, the TC Chin double hit at the eighty

588
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 4: five Open. Mm hmm, I mean I think that goes

589
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 4: into it. That's more conditions and brutal rough and everything.

590
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 4: I'm thinking more lighthearted fare, like when Zach Johnson accidentally

591
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,400
Speaker 4: hit his ball with a practice swing at the Masters

592
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 4: a couple of years ago.

593
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go this is a personal question. So

594
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,719
Speaker 2: I'm gonna put a personal slant on it, Okay, I

595
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 2: like this is probably about eight years ago, and I

596
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,119
Speaker 2: don't believe that the branch is still there, the limb

597
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 2: of the tree. But the sixth hole TPC Sawgrass, which

598
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 2: we just spent all weekend watching, used to have this

599
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 2: limb that would go across the tea box where I

600
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 2: used to look at it and go if I was

601
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 2: playing for this tea box, I would hit that thing

602
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 2: every single time, like it's right there. It's the exact

603
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:42,880
Speaker 2: trajectory of where my drive would be. And these guys

604
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,320
Speaker 2: just walk up there and like I'll hit it under,

605
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 2: I'll hit it over like what like they didn't see

606
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 2: I'm gonna hit it because it's the one branch right.

607
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 2: Always used to stand there behind the six tea box

608
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 2: and go the thing. It's not like a like a

609
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 2: little twig, like that's a big like there's a huge

610
00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 2: log that goes across. It's fifteen yards up in the air,

611
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,199
Speaker 2: ten yards up to the edge. It's right there like

612
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 2: you're going to hit it. It's twenty yards in front

613
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,640
Speaker 2: of the team ground. And so I was out there

614
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:13,120
Speaker 2: once pondering this very question as Ernie El's of all

615
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 2: people standing there, takes a swing and it hits that

616
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 2: limb and goes about forty yards behind him and to

617
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 2: the right, and so I look later Ernie's like his

618
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,639
Speaker 2: driving distance was like negative thirty seven yards on that

619
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 2: hole and it's a whatever. It is a four hundred

620
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:34,199
Speaker 2: and ten yard hole that played four forty With his

621
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 2: second shot.

622
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 4: Hit that's incredible.

623
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 2: And the look on Ernie's face, I mean this was

624
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 2: as he was kind of just morphing into you know,

625
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 2: I don't give a craptness towards the end of his career,

626
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 2: and I mean I love it.

627
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 4: We're going from championship contender to ceremonial slash senior.

628
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, I don't think his score was

629
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 2: great at that point in the round, whenever it was,

630
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 2: And the look on his face was just like, what

631
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 2: the hell am I doing out here? Why is that

632
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 2: thing there? Why am I ball over the come on,

633
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 2: like just the.

634
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 4: Two decades, Why am I going back to hit this

635
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 4: second shot?

636
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 2: Really? Yeah, like exactly like I'm Ernie L's, I'm going

637
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 2: backwards to hit that. This is so embarrassing, but like

638
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 2: it's not my fault. It's that damn limb's fault. But

639
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 2: limbs hanging over the tea, let's not.

640
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 4: Exact same mind state. I would have like facing that

641
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 4: be like, okay, this is the one branch, Like when

642
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 4: you're trying to punch out and there's one branch in

643
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 4: the way or whatever, I'm going to hit the one branch.

644
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 4: Just you know, that's what's in my head, the negative thought,

645
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 4: and then invariably that's what happens. So yeah, so good answer.

646
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 4: I like it. I figured you'd give me some good

647
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 4: you know, personal history there, experience, you know, you know,

648
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 4: I dug a little bit. The surgery of throwing a

649
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 4: shoe into the crowd is one of the funniest things

650
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 4: I've ever seen on a golf course. But how did

651
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 4: he get crazy? A couple of minutes yesterday?

652
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 2: Should I google a videot like, how does he get

653
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 2: the shoe back? Does he with one shoe?

654
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 4: No? You never find that out. He rips the shoe off,

655
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 4: throws it behind him into the crowd. I don't know

656
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 4: if it's because the shoe he slipped or wherever it

657
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 4: might be, but you got everybody out there. Sergio throws

658
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 4: shoe into crowd, just google that and watch the video.

659
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 4: It's kind of grainy European tour footage from years back,

660
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 4: but an amazing moment.

661
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm feeling like he got up to the

662
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 2: green though He's like, I see this going a little left. Well,

663
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 2: you're only wearing one shoe, exactly. Great questions. This week,

664
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 2: we're gonna talk about the Honda, and just a second

665
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 2: before we move on here, we want to tell you

666
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 2: about our friends at Athletic Brewing Company, makers of America's

667
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 2: most flavorful non alcoholic beer. That's not a sound effect.

668
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 2: I really just opened one around here. March Madness is

669
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 2: our favorite time of year. If you're looking to take

670
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,080
Speaker 2: it easy on the booze this March and just focus

671
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 2: on celebrating the season through some good, wholesome gambling, Athletic

672
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 2: Brewings award winning beers are a great option because for

673
00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 2: years now, Athletic Brewing has been making great tasting beers

674
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,680

Speaker 2: I like it. Come in nice, all right, let's get

685
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 2: to the Honda. We have got six players in the

686
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 2: top fifty who are at PGA National this week, A

687
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 2: stark contrast from it's a somewhat star studded event on

688
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 2: most years.

689
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 4: So Daniel Berger, dig deep, isn't it you? I know,

690
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 4: you know, you Kung hung Lee around the stroke skin,

691
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 4: around the green numbers, you know, try to find an edge.

692
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 2: This is this is our kind of weeks. Daniel Berger

693
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 2: opens up as a favorite. Right behind him Sun JAYM,

694
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 2: Joaque Neeman M at thirteen hundred, Nieman at two thousand,

695
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 2: twenty to one, Lee Westwood plus twenty two to fifty,

696
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 2: Russell Henley, Adam Scott at thirty to one, Taylor Gooch.

697
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 2: Never thought we'd see Taylor Gooch at thirty five to one,

698
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 2: Shane Lowry at thirty five to one, and on and

699
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 2: on and on.

700
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 4: Maybe some very.

701
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 2: Interesting names here. This is a very interesting boy, this

702
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 2: is not If this event was played a month ago,

703
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 2: none of these odds would be what they are right now,

704
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 2: and so it just goes to show you the changing

705
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 2: marketplace all the time. Let's start at the top. To me,

706
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 2: there are really probably six guys at the top of

707
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 2: this thing. Berger, m Neeman, Westwood, Henley and Scott. Who

708
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 2: are you know, sort of the cream of the crop

709
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 2: in this one. I'm not sure where I got. I

710
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 2: might go Adam Scott if I had to take just

711
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 2: one guy, especially at the number he's at. Adams at

712
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 2: a price three times bigger than Daniel Berger. Feels like

713
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 2: a pretty good bargain there.

714
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, terrific numbers on this golf course. One here a

715
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 4: couple of years ago. He's the only player with four

716
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 4: more birdies per round at PGA National in the last

717
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 4: five years. So that gives you some positive vibes going forward.

718
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,479
Speaker 4: Hopefully he can replicate that. Has some good ball striking

719
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 4: moments last week at TBCSAGA. I hit those three great

720
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 4: approach shots Thursday, Friday Saturday at seventeen. But some good

721
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 4: numbers for Adam Scott. If I'm going at the top

722
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 4: of the board, I'm probably leaning towards Joking. Neman sneakily

723
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 4: really consistent this year. His iron play has been really good,

724
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 4: top twenty in strokes gained approach since the beginning of

725
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 4: last year. He's made every cut this season. He's third

726
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 4: on tour and birdy average fifth and scoring average among

727
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 4: those guys at the top. I know that seems like

728
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 4: a that's a tough number, probably for Woking Neman, but

729
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 4: on a difficult golf course. I think that's the guy

730
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 4: I'm gonna pick among those, you know, those top ranked guys.

731
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've seen some love for Neman already. I liked

732
00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 2: him a lot last week. He was sort of my

733
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 2: a not so sleepy sleeper pick. Going into last week.

734
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 2: I thought that he could go out and contend. Never

735
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 2: really played great. The numbers were okay. I mean, you

736
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,280
Speaker 2: look at the numbers across the board. The punting numbers

737
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 2: are actually what gives me a little reason for optimism

738
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 2: moving forward. His record here is not great. I believe

739
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 2: he had a fifty ninth and a misscut, But at

740
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:21,880
Speaker 2: this point in his career, I really don't look too

741
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 2: much at past results for Neeman because he's matured so

742
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 2: much in the past year. Anyway that it just doesn't

743
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,399
Speaker 2: matter a whole lot. Berger obviously has grown up here.

744
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,840
Speaker 2: He's really good. He's been playing well. I don't know

745
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 2: that he picks off another win as quickly as this, though,

746
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 2: just won at Pebble not that long ago. Sung jaym

747
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,839
Speaker 2: based on I wonder what the number would have been

748
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 2: on Sungjay if he had posted I think on Saturday.

749
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 2: Why do you shoot seventy eight something like that?

750
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,399
Speaker 4: He went sixty six, seventy seven, sixty six his last

751
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 4: three rounds.

752
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 2: If that last round was another seventy seven instead of

753
00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 2: thirteen to one, what do you think his number is

754
00:34:59,320 --> 00:34:59,720
Speaker 2: this week?

755
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,320
Speaker 4: I mean, based on the strength of field, maybe he

756
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 4: might be around US eighteen to one.

757
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 2: Maybe, Yeah, That's what I'm thinking. Like, just because he

758
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 2: posts a really nice final round, it lowered his price

759
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 2: a lot. So if you do like Sujay to repeat,

760
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 2: and I usually don't love guys to repeat, if you

761
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 2: like him, then you're you know, you're ruining the fact

762
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,800
Speaker 2: that in that final round he went low on Sunday,

763
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 2: because that kind of hurt his number going into this.

764
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 2: Like I said, Lee Lee Westwood always play as well

765
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,319
Speaker 2: as a nice record, here's he's running hot. And if

766
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 2: you're looking for a guy who just doesn't seem like

767
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 2: he'd be wiped out after a few weeks of contending,

768
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,760
Speaker 2: it's Lee Westwood, who, Yeah, looks like he's just playing

769
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 2: golf like the rest of us, Like I'm on vacation. Yeah,

770
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 2: golf seems nice, you know, just bitting balls out air,

771
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 2: playing pretty well.

772
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,919
Speaker 4: There's anything as back to back low impact fifty four

773
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 4: whole leads. That's almost what that felt like.

774
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:52,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, very good point.

775
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 4: So, and like we talked about, his iron numbers have

776
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 4: been outstanding. The last couple of weeks hit more greens

777
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,239
Speaker 4: than anybody at bay Hill, and the players combined nearly

778
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 4: led the field both weeks in a row in that statistic.

779
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 4: So one of the numbers that I'm leaning to most

780
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 4: this week, strokes gained approach, is just it plays an

781
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 4: enormous role on this golf course. In terms of the

782
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 4: average ranking of winners at the Honda Classic, it's an

783
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 4: average of about seven spots better than the PGA Tour average,

784
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 4: which is a giant, giant swing there. So I'm trying

785
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 4: to look more and more at strokes gain approach numbers.

786
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 4: The other key statistica came across, and this is a

787
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:27,839
Speaker 4: little bit reminiscent of what happened at Bayhill a few

788
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 4: weeks ago. There are more approach shots on this golf

789
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 4: course between one hundred and seventy five and two hundred

790
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 4: yards over the last five years than in any other

791
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:38,600
Speaker 4: course on the PGA Tour. So it's not quite as

792
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,400
Speaker 4: dramatic as that bay Hill number where all the approach

793
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 4: shots came from outside two hundred, but it's just something

794
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 4: to keep an eye on in terms of guys who

795
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:49,399
Speaker 4: are better with the mid level to longer irons going

796
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,880
Speaker 4: into greens. Some notable guys who are really good in

797
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 4: that range the last two seasons, Stepstraka is fourth, Grayson

798
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,879
Speaker 4: Murray fifth, Nim and the guy I talked about is ninth,

799
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 4: and proximity of the whole from the range at the

800
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 4: beginning of last season.

801
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 2: I'd always looked at par four scoring average here as well,

802
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 2: which I think because there are only two bar fives

803
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:11,120
Speaker 2: that that plays a big thing into it. Are there

804
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 2: any stats? So I know you probably get asked this

805
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 2: question a lot, and I want to know if you've

806
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 2: found anything that correlates really well other than just trying

807
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 2: to pick out specific rounds and trying to cherry pick

808
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 2: here and there. But are there any stats, any kind

809
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 2: of analytics that we can look at and say, Hey,

810
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 2: I want a guy who's a good win player. How

811
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:28,919
Speaker 2: do you find that.

812
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 4: A good Win player? That's that's really interesting. That's probably

813
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 4: one of the more tougher things to quantify. I think

814
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 4: if you're pretty good with your long irons, that's a

815
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 4: good indication of a guy who's able to control his

816
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 4: ball flight, and that be indicative of somebody who's successful

817
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,239
Speaker 4: in the wind. Overall, though, we're kind of relying on. Man,

818
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,479
Speaker 4: those guys from Texas they're great in the wind because

819
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 4: it's windy there, and I always makes my eyes roll because

820
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:51,920
Speaker 4: I'm from Houston, the biggest city in the state, and

821
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 4: it's not windy in Uston. So anyway, but usually, or

822
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 4: maybe like Ausie's, they'll say are great out of the wind,

823
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 4: or the thing you always hear about Spanish guys, the

824
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,839
Speaker 4: guys from Spain being great sand players or great short

825
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,879
Speaker 4: games or whatever. So you're instead of relying on those

826
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 4: kind of colloquial conversational type things. I think maybe it's

827
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 4: a great question, and if you want to take it

828
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 4: out of that kind of conversational form. I think guys

829
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 4: who are better with their long irons are typically ones

830
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:22,839
Speaker 4: who are able to control their ball flight, and that's

831
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,239
Speaker 4: indicative success in the win.

832
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,279
Speaker 2: Okay, well, I don't know if you're busy at all,

833
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 2: but I'd like a complete dissertation on rounds over the

834
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:33,880
Speaker 2: past two years where wins were at least fifteen miles

835
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 2: an hour during the round. And then let's break down

836
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 2: scoring averages and strokes game numbers. Let's get some real

837
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 2: data here.

838
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 4: It's good.

839
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:42,319
Speaker 2: I don't have a lot.

840
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:45,400
Speaker 4: Going on, so it's good that you'll throw that my way,

841
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 4: and you know I'll have it on your desk in

842
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 4: the morning, mister Sobel, thank.

843
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 2: You TPS reports as well. So yeah, I look, I

844
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 2: am going to start off short this mid tier with

845
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 2: my favorite play this week, who I like in part

846
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 2: because he plays really well in strong wins, and he

847
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 2: plays well in strong wins because he's from Ireland, Northern Island,

848
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 2: a place where they have a lot of strong wins.

849
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 2: Shane Lowry at thirty five to one, a lot of

850
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 2: things going his way right now, eighth place at TPZ

851
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 2: Sawgrass this past weekend. He's figured out, he explained during

852
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 2: during the course of the tournament, figured out his putting stroke.

853
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,799
Speaker 2: I believe he went from left hand low to right

854
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 2: hand low for the first time. I think, if I

855
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 2: was reading it correctly, he's going and should be right

856
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 2: now as we're recording this to Augusta National with Lee Westwood.

857
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 2: But it's not the Lee Westwood part that really makes

858
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,719
Speaker 2: me like Lowry. A lot of the fact that Lowry's

859
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 2: coach is going with them as well, and so spending

860
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 2: two days with your coach at Augusta National can't be

861
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 2: a bad thing going into Honda. He also happens to

862
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 2: live five minutes away from PGA National and he really

863
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 2: likes it there and likes the golf course. So that's

864
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,399
Speaker 2: a lot of things going his way for this week.

865
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 2: What do you think of Lowry? And I'll give you

866
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,880
Speaker 2: a couple other names before before I kick it to you.

867
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 2: Just guys in this sort of mid tier. So we're

868
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 2: going from thirty five to one until let's say eighty

869
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,319
Speaker 2: to one. I'll just go through a few names that

870
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,879
Speaker 2: I like. Brendan Steele is a guy that I've spent

871
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 2: some time without the Honda over the years. He has

872
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:13,880
Speaker 2: a really good track record there. I did like Gary Woodland,

873
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,759
Speaker 2: but Gary Woodland is now w ded due to a

874
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 2: positive COVID test, so he's not in there. I love

875
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:23,360
Speaker 2: Matt Wallace this week T eighteen at the Arnold Palmer

876
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 2: Invitational a couple of weeks ago. He will be a

877
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 2: popular play in my household. This week. Dylan for Telly

878
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 2: played really well on Sunday. I've been looking for Dylan

879
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:34,479
Speaker 2: for Telly to start doing something this year, so maybe

880
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 2: that propels him too, bigger and better things. And I'll

881
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 2: give you one more name here, Alex Norrin. Actually I'll

882
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,520
Speaker 2: get two names. Alex Norrin at seventy to one. He

883
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 2: is T twelve at Riviera a few weeks ago at

884
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:48,919
Speaker 2: TVC Sawgrass really bad the first round, but second round

885
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 2: shot seventy still missed the Cup of the ball. Striking

886
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 2: numbers were much better and the last name in that

887
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 2: in that range, and I was hoping for a bigger number,

888
00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:00,560
Speaker 2: but seventy to one. Brandon Wu has been real good

889
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 2: when he's played. He's still a corn Ferry guy, but

890
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 2: he's in this field based on the fact that he

891
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,840
Speaker 2: was T seven in Puerto Rico a few weeks ago.

892
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 2: This kid can go and the better part about it,

893
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,760
Speaker 2: And you talked about this being a ball striker's golf course.

894
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:16,680
Speaker 2: Brandon wu is a ball striker.

895
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 4: Wu was a guy whose name tends to pop up

896
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 4: when I'm sorting out best stats since X before I

897
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 4: put the minimum rounds thing in and then I've got

898
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:28,720
Speaker 4: to sift him out. But he pops up there a lot.

899
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 4: I love the lowry pick. I think that's great inside

900
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 4: a little information that he lives right next to the

901
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 4: golf course too, even without knowing that, I like him

902
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 4: a lot. Matt Wallace is a guy who's I'm very

903
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 4: high on this week as well. Top twenty at bay Hill,

904
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 4: Top twenty finished two years ago at this event, limited action,

905
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:46,280
Speaker 4: but he's twelve on the PGA Tour this season. Strokes

906
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,800
Speaker 4: gain approach, which, like I said, I love that statistic

907
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,479
Speaker 4: as an indicator of success. This week, one guy who's

908
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,080
Speaker 4: in that middle range who's not a very good putter,

909
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:56,560
Speaker 4: and he would admit to that himself and had a

910
00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 4: terrible moment with an enormous score at TPC Sawgrass last week.

911
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,120
Speaker 4: Been On has played here three times. He has two

912
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:06,319
Speaker 4: top five finishes. He leads all players in strokes game

913
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 4: tea to green here the last five years. He's in

914
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 4: the top five in strokes gaining total here the last

915
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 4: five years per round. It's a course that plays to

916
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 4: his immense ball striking strengths and strokes gain. Putting is

917
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:19,280
Speaker 4: not typically as important here. I think it's because players

918
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:23,320
Speaker 4: tend to miss more greens than normal, so approach plays paramount.

919
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 4: But then you've also got a little bit more of

920
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:28,280
Speaker 4: an importance on short game and less importance on the putter.

921
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 4: I think that ben On is a guy who's going

922
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:32,359
Speaker 4: to put himself in a position to make a bunch

923
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 4: of birdies. Whether or not those putts ball that's another

924
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 4: question altogether. But been on at sixty six to one,

925
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:42,200
Speaker 4: with that course history and that ball striking ability, I

926
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,319
Speaker 4: think he's interesting. I'm probably going to put money on

927
00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 4: him to top ten at the minimum. I might have

928
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:49,319
Speaker 4: a flyer on him to win as well. So he's

929
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:51,960
Speaker 4: those Wallace and on with the two guys I circled

930
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 4: in that range. And I really like Lowry a lot

931
00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:56,799
Speaker 4: too this week based on how he performed, especially on

932
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 4: the weekend at TPC Sawgrass.

933
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're definitely unison there. I have been on in

934
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 2: my preview this week as my Karma Play first round leader.

935
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:08,720
Speaker 2: He shot eighty three in the open or a TVC

936
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,839
Speaker 2: saw grass Let's knock eighteen or so off of that

937
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:15,320
Speaker 2: get him to a sixty five at PGA National on Thursday.

938
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,799
Speaker 2: Let's move with this thing a little bit lower. I mean,

939
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 2: there's some guy, there's some big numbers on some guys,

940
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,319
Speaker 2: the one that struck me, and I get it, he's

941
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,880
Speaker 2: not playing well and I'm not going to bet him probably,

942
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:29,960
Speaker 2: but Henrik Stenson at two hundred and fifty to one,

943
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 2: I mean, he's still Henrik Stenson. I get that he

944
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 2: hasn't made a cut yet this year, but he's Henrik Stensony.

945
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:36,799
Speaker 2: He's looked really bad. I don't think he's gonna win.

946
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 2: I don't think he's gonna do much. I'm not gonna

947
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 2: load up on him in DFS lineups, but he's still

948
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 2: Henrik Stenson. He's behind a lot of guys that haven't

949
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,040
Speaker 2: done anything close to what Henrik Stenson has done in

950
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:51,000
Speaker 2: this game. So that's at least a name there for you.

951
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:52,920
Speaker 2: Two guys that I think are gonna be off the radar,

952
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,479
Speaker 2: really sort of low end DFS plays that are gonna

953
00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 2: be low owned Cameron Percy, who's the oldest first time

954
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:04,560
Speaker 2: are in the players field last week he's had I believe,

955
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 2: three top thirty finishes in his last four starts, and

956
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:09,920
Speaker 2: then another guy that And again we don't have the

957
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 2: stats that necessarily tell us this, but I feel like

958
00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 2: when conditions are tougher, when the wind is blowing, Tyler

959
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:20,480
Speaker 2: Duncan tends to show up on certain on certain days

960
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:23,799
Speaker 2: when when it is a little bit harder, And so yeah,

961
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:25,719
Speaker 2: I'll have of them in some DFS lineups. Again, maybe

962
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 2: a top twenty type play, like I wrote in my

963
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 2: preview this week, So anyone down there on the list

964
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 2: that I think could be a decent play this week.

965
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 4: Oh, professor, Sobil, once you get my dissertation tomorrow, you'll

966
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,960
Speaker 4: be able to validate your Tyler Duncan hunch. I'm going

967
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 4: to go back to a guy I briefly mentioned a

968
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 4: minute ago, Stepstraca. I think he's a good pick for

969
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:46,400
Speaker 4: a first round lead, solely because I'm going off of

970
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 4: that one hundred and seventy five to two hundred yards

971
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,920
Speaker 4: being a more important approach shot. Over the last two season,

972
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 4: he ranks fourth on the PGA Tour from one seventy

973
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 4: five to two hundred in approach shot proximity from that range,

974
00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 4: So I'm going to pick him to be I'll put

975
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 4: some on him be a first round leader. He's kind

976
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:04,320
Speaker 4: of interesting. Sinson is interesting too. I know you said

977
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 4: he's Hendrick Sinson. I know, and he was awful last

978
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,360
Speaker 4: week at TVC Sawgrass. But when you think about what

979
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 4: Henry Stinson has been great at throughout his career, you

980
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 4: think mid to long irons in that three would right.

981
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 4: And what better place is he going to be able

982
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 4: to find it? Of course that would fit it than

983
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 4: a place that is very demanding of those types of

984
00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 4: skill sets, and that's what the Honda Classic will provide.

985
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:26,920
Speaker 4: So he's interesting at that number simply because of what

986
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 4: he's accomplished in his career and how far down he is.

987
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 4: Henrik Norlander was another guy looked at, a guy who

988
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:34,879
Speaker 4: had some success on a difficult golf course at Tory

989
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,319
Speaker 4: Pines earlier in the year. It hasn't played as well

990
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 4: the last couple of weeks, so it may not be

991
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,840
Speaker 4: worth the flyer, but he's down there on the list.

992
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 4: And Harold Varner third another guy who's pretty solid iron player,

993
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 4: good iron play metrics through the bag. This season especially

994
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,360
Speaker 4: hasn't had it. I think it's like ten straight rounds

995
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,440
Speaker 4: in the seventies for Harold. He hasn't put one in

996
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 4: the sixties together in a little while. But this is

997
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,640
Speaker 4: a course where if you keep putting yourself in consistent position,

998
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:02,280
Speaker 4: make it hunt of pars, not make too many mistakes.

999
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:04,239
Speaker 4: I wouldn't be surprised if he finished in the top

1000
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:04,920
Speaker 4: ten this week.

1001
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 2: All right, three more, I said, I was done. The

1002
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:08,719
Speaker 2: bottom of the board is just too We're just.

1003
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 4: Gonna fill you. Just give you something on everybody in

1004
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:12,440
Speaker 4: the field. I ever got no.

1005
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 2: I'm just I'm going to Tyler McCumber, who's played well lately.

1006
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:18,120
Speaker 2: He played well at Riviera, played pretty well last week.

1007
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 2: He was top thirty and then two win specialists of

1008
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 2: varying degrees. Andrew Landry. Anyone who wins the Texas Open

1009
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 2: can play in some wind. Andrew Landry can play in

1010
00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 2: some wind. And this guy, uh, Padrake Harrington does he

1011
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 2: play well in wind? Oh knows he had any experience?

1012
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 4: Been known to a time or two, two.

1013
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 2: Fifty to one, Padrick Harrington, He's won.

1014
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:39,320
Speaker 4: The winner here beat then he beat He beat Daniel

1015
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:45,440
Speaker 4: Berger in a playoff. I think, yep, okay, I like it.

1016
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 4: Maybe I mean VJ saying merely won this golf turned

1017
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:52,040
Speaker 4: by a couple of years ago, veteran ball striker with success,

1018
00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 4: you know, seemingly out of nowhere. I think he was.

1019
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 4: He was in contention coming down the stretch the back

1020
00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,120
Speaker 4: nine on Sunday, kept waiting for him to fall away.

1021
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 4: So yeah, how do you see a stin Center a

1022
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:03,360
Speaker 4: Harrington in that kind of category succeed?

00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:51,880
Speaker 2: We're gonna go no.

1061
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:54,239
Speaker 4: Knows with him, and you're gonna play better than you

1062
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 4: ever dreamed of. God dell it, that's.

1063
00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:57,840
Speaker 2: What I have learn of you.

1064
00:48:58,440 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 1: So let's get drafting.

1065
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 2: Jay Ray, will you start us off and give me

1066
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:05,680
Speaker 2: your first pick?

1067
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm gonna go with Joaque Neman out of the gate.

1068
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:10,680
Speaker 4: I'll spend some money, give us a he's the base

1069
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:13,279
Speaker 4: guy for us. This week I mentioned his really good

1070
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,760
Speaker 4: approach play numbers top twenty on the PGA Torns Strokes

1071
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 4: can't approach since the beginning of last season. I think

1072
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:21,120
Speaker 4: it's remarkable this young guy hasn't missed a cut going

1073
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:22,880
Speaker 4: back to the beginning of the season. In the fall,

1074
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:25,880
Speaker 4: I think he's primed for success. This feels like a

1075
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:28,200
Speaker 4: week where he get have a big breakthrough and pick

1076
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:31,120
Speaker 4: up win number two. Pick up easily the biggest win

1077
00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 4: of his young career. I'm gonna start us off with

1078
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:34,440
Speaker 4: Joaquin Neman out of the gates.

1079
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 2: All right, if you're spending money, I'll spend money because

1080
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:38,760
Speaker 2: I do think there are a lot of lower priced

1081
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 2: guys we can go after. I said, I like Shane

1082
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 2: Lowry a lot. He's my favorite play. You like Shane Lowry,

1083
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:45,760
Speaker 2: that's enough for me. Ninety two hundred.

1084
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:49,160
Speaker 4: Lock him in, Okay, I like it. We'll save a

1085
00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:52,040
Speaker 4: little money with my next pick. Talked about him earlier,

1086
00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:53,880
Speaker 4: one of the best on the PGA Tours since the

1087
00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:56,359
Speaker 4: beginning of last season, proximity from one to seventy five

1088
00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 4: to two hundred. I think he can go out and

1089
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:00,040
Speaker 4: make a bunch of birdies on this golf course. It

1090
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:01,759
Speaker 4: seems like a little bit of a gamble because he

1091
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:04,400
Speaker 4: doesn't have awesome form or a lot of history to

1092
00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:06,680
Speaker 4: go back on. But let's go with sepstrac at sixty

1093
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,840
Speaker 4: seven hundred. I think he's a good value at that price,

1094
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,600
Speaker 4: especially with that skill set coming into this golf course.

1095
00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:14,600
Speaker 2: All right, you save us some money there, and I'm

1096
00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:16,960
Speaker 2: confident we can save some more money, So Wet'll spend

1097
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,520
Speaker 2: a little bit more here, not too much, but I

1098
00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:22,319
Speaker 2: saw you nodding your head on our zoom call as

1099
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:25,279
Speaker 2: I was mentioning Matt Wallace's name, and he's a guy

1100
00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:28,400
Speaker 2: that tends to play well in tough conditions. We expected

1101
00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:30,120
Speaker 2: to be tough. I would not be surprised to see

1102
00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:34,480
Speaker 2: Matt Wallace win this golf tournament. He's a very talented player.

1103
00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:37,239
Speaker 2: At some point everything connects for him in one of

1104
00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:40,120
Speaker 2: these sort of one off PGA Tour events that he's

1105
00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,600
Speaker 2: been playing every once in a while over the past

1106
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 2: couple of years. So at eighty five hundred, I think

1107
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:45,120
Speaker 2: Matt Wallace is a really.

1108
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:48,360
Speaker 4: Nice play Okay, I like it. I'll save us some

1109
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:51,160
Speaker 4: money here, leave you with some change in your back pocket.

1110
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:54,240
Speaker 4: Going to pick number six. This is a veteran player,

1111
00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:57,759
Speaker 4: multiple major champion who has not missed a cut yet

1112
00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:01,760
Speaker 4: this season on the PGA Tour, manufacturing some really good rounds.

1113
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:04,320
Speaker 4: He's been really close to missing the cuts several times.

1114
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:06,719
Speaker 4: He's made it by one or two shots on several occasions.

1115
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 4: I think Zach Johnson can manufacture some make the right decision,

1116
00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:14,920
Speaker 4: stay out of trouble. A guy who's eleven for eleven

1117
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:18,960
Speaker 4: making cuts this season. Seventy four hundred dollars. I'm gonna

1118
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:21,240
Speaker 4: pick Zack Johnson here on a difficult golf course.

1119
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:25,399
Speaker 2: Okay, I don't necessarily dislike that, so yeah, Zach Johnson there,

1120
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:30,200
Speaker 2: what about of encouragement? Okay, all right, I don't love

1121
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:31,880
Speaker 2: the Zach Johnson play. What do you want from me?

1122
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:32,920
Speaker 2: But that's fine.

1123
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:33,960
Speaker 4: I'm just messing with you, man.

1124
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 2: I can either say I like that play or I

1125
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:41,760
Speaker 2: don't dislike that play. That's a backhanded compliment of Jeff's lineup.

1126
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:44,440
Speaker 4: Uh, all right.

1127
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:46,960
Speaker 2: I've got the two guys I like near the top.

1128
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:51,760
Speaker 2: We've got seventy eight hundred left, Brandon Wu and Alex Norrin.

1129
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:55,200
Speaker 2: I've got the unproven commodity who's hungry to go out

1130
00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:55,600
Speaker 2: there and play.

1131
00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:56,759
Speaker 4: I've got the proven.

1132
00:51:56,440 --> 00:52:00,719
Speaker 2: Commodity who's not one on the PGA Tour yet in

1133
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:02,439
Speaker 2: the US. With Which one of those are you like better?

1134
00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:06,840
Speaker 4: Brandon Wu feels like a Keith Mitchell Leesh breakthrough like

1135
00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:08,760
Speaker 4: we had a few years ago. Behinda classic.

1136
00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:10,600
Speaker 2: That's he's a talented guy.

1137
00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:12,960
Speaker 4: I mean, like you said, he's he's got some in

1138
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:14,879
Speaker 4: his limited action on the PGA Tour, got a lot

1139
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 4: of great numbers. I'm looking at this DraftKings list here

1140
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:21,960
Speaker 4: eighty Fantasy points per start. I mean, that's that's pretty

1141
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:25,160
Speaker 4: damn good. I think I'll I'll go with the unproven commodity.

1142
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 4: Why not?

1143
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:27,920
Speaker 2: I mean, looking back, so, he was seventh, as I

1144
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:30,000
Speaker 2: mentioned in the Puerto Rico Open before that, these were

1145
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:33,799
Speaker 2: all corn Ferry starts. He was second, tenth, one, twenty ninth.

1146
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 2: Don't take him in Wichitah first, fifty, eighth, second, seventieth, forty, fourth, ninth.

1147
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:41,560
Speaker 2: I mean, this guy, he can play. I mean, this

1148
00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:43,239
Speaker 2: is just not a one. Awfully, he got lucky in

1149
00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 2: Puerto Rico. It happened to finish in seventh and got

1150
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 2: into this one. This kid can play. So that is

1151
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:52,960
Speaker 2: our lineup. Zach Johnson, Shane Lowry, Joaque Neeman, Sepstraka, Matt Wallace,

1152
00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 2: Brandon wu. That is as eclectic a lineup as you

1153
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,960
Speaker 2: can get, which is absolutely perfect for the HANDA Classic,

1154
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 2: which is bound to have an eclectic leaderboard as it

1155
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,319
Speaker 2: always does, should play tough there. I can't wait for

1156
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:08,040
Speaker 2: this week. There were reports it's changed a little bit

1157
00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:09,880
Speaker 2: since then, but there were reports Sunday evening when I

1158
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:12,640
Speaker 2: looked at the weather, thirty eight mile per hour guss

1159
00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 2: on Sunday afternoon for this thing. This could be so

1160
00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:19,239
Speaker 2: much fun. Cannot wait for the Honda Classic to get going.

1161
