9
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 4: golf betting world. Reviewing last week's three M Open. Really

10
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 4: cool victory for Michael Thompson, seven years after his first

11
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 4: and only previous victory, Tears in his eyes walking off

12
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 4: that final green was really a fun story to see.

13
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 3: We will, of course get to everything this week.

14
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 4: We've got two on the PGA, two ur, we've got

15
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 4: a European Tour event, we've got the Champions Tour back,

16
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 4: We've got the LPGA this week.

17
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 3: I mean, if we want to go really deep, we

18
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 3: can go really deep.

19
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 4: And and of course, as I always be, we will start

20
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 4: with just one thing you're looking at this week, and

21
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 4: then we'll get into some review stuff from last week.

22
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 4: But I assume you're looking mostly at the WGC FedEx

23
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,199
Speaker 4: Saint Jude Invitational in Memphis, and give me one little

24
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 4: taste of something we'll talk about over the next thirty minutes.

25
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 5: All right, Well, I've talked about John Ram a bunch.

26
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 1: Peter Jennings loves John Rahm.

27
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,479
Speaker 6: Now he's the number one player in the world, so

28
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 6: the time to buy John Ram is probably over.

29
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 5: He's the most expensive player in DraftKings.

30
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 6: And now I'll talk about someone else at the top

31
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 6: that I think probably is still the best player in

32
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 6: the world for my money, and that's Rory McElroy.

33
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,479
Speaker 5: You're getting him at a slight discount.

34
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 6: People are going to be on rom, people are going

35
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 6: to be on Bryce and d Chambeau of JT of

36
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 6: just a loaded field. I'm expecting Rory to show why

37
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 6: he's still the best player in the world here very soon,

38
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 6: and I'll be buying him in a lot of formats

39
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 6: this week.

40
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 3: I really like Rory this week.

41
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 4: In fact, worry might be my second favorite on the board.

42
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 3: That's not saying much.

43
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 4: Because obviously he's got a pretty short price, but my

44
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 4: favorite this week. You might just have to hang on

45
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 4: and listen to the rest of the show, because we're

46
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 4: gonna have all of that and so much more coming up,

47
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 4: and first we're gonna do a little review of this

48
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 4: past week at the three M Open. But first, guys,

49
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 4: we're calling on all listeners of the Action Network podcast

50
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 4: to head to Apple Podcasts and give us a five

51
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 4: star rating and write a quick review. It only takes

52
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,359
Speaker 4: about thirty seconds, and we really appreciate it. Not sure

53
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,399
Speaker 4: how to do it, well, If you're listening right now

54
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 4: on an iPhone, go to Apple podcast, tap the Action

55
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 4: Network podcast tile, scroll all the way down the episode's list,

56
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 4: and there at the bottom there it is ratings and reviews.

57
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 3: Pretty easy.

58
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 4: Give us five stars, and if you really like us,

59
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 4: try to give us six stars. I don't think it'll work,

60
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 4: but try it anyway. So in any case, Peter, we

61
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 4: get back to the three M Open this past weekend. Look,

62
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 4: if you're listening to the show right now and you

63
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 4: were just all over Michael, I'm not saying like a

64
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 4: dark throw, like hey, I threw him in a lineup

65
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 4: and I won some some DFS contests, or you know,

66
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 4: I just need to pick a long shot and I

67
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:09,920
Speaker 4: just you know, I threw a couple of bucks on

68
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 4: him on Friday night. I'm saying, like, hey, on Wednesday afternoon.

69
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 4: You know, I went down to the local nineteenth hole

70
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 4: and told all my buddies Michael Thompson this week, I'm

71
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 4: telling you got to get on him.

72
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 3: If you were doing.

73
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 4: That, we should probably turn over our mics to you

74
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 4: for this past week. But as far as uh, a

75
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 4: lot of other things were concerned, that was kind.

76
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 3: Of a bloodbath. I know you did pretty well.

77
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 4: Peter last week, and you were on some of the

78
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 4: guys that were up there near the top, but I

79
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 4: did not. I will readily admit that that was as

80
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 4: bad a week as I could have.

81
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 6: Well, my week, uh was about as bad as it

82
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 6: could be. In DFS started off amazing. The Thursday morning

83
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 6: was winning everything, including the Millionaire Maker for stretches of time,

84
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 6: which you know it's Thursday morning, it means it's so nice.

85
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 3: Sweat to wake up too.

86
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, But for those of us that haven't seen that

87
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 4: seven figure payout, like when when you're sitting there on

88
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 4: Thursday morning, like what you know that it's going to

89
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 4: change a million times between Thursday morning and Sunday evening,

90
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 4: But what's it like just kind of looking at your phone?

91
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 3: Can you put the phone down?

92
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 4: Are you just staring at it for a while. Are

93
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 4: you all of a sudden like super into the tournament.

94
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 4: What's it like when you've got that on your phone

95
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 4: and you're looking at the app.

96
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 5: I have a problem in general.

97
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 6: I think the biggest issue that I have is sweating

98
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 6: all the shots in the PJA. I'm trying to sweat less.

99
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 6: I'm trying to do stuff when golf is on, but

100
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 6: I'm just obsessed with watching it and keeping up. And

101
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 6: you know, every tournament to a big investments, so I'm

102
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 6: eagerly watching what's happening. But yeah, Thursday couldn't have started

103
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 6: off any better with short DJ, with short EVR. They

104
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 6: both started off poorly. Thursday afternoon goes marginal, but I'm like,

105
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 6: all right, it's okay. Friday morning, every golfer that I

106
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 6: needed just went out and shot a million. So DFS

107
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 6: was actually in a pretty bad spot, but fortunately was

108
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 6: built out with some betting. We talked on the Gimme

109
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,479
Speaker 6: about Max Homa, who was probably one of my bigger

110
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 6: betting positions. Just in general, it was all over him.

111
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 6: That was great. Adam Long was of my leverage plays

112
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 6: in DFS, so I had a couple lineups that actually

113
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 6: bailed me out from you know, a huge, huge loss

114
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 6: with Adam Long and was really rooting him on. But

115
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 6: Michael Thompson closed really well and one of the best

116
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 6: golf shots you'll ever see. You tweeted about it, I

117
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 6: saw it was just like unbelievable. The bunker shot on

118
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 6: sixteen is one of the top five shots of the year.

119
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 6: I mean, there's been a ton of really clutch, great shots,

120
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 6: but that's one of the hardest shots in golf. And

121
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 6: the way he went about it, I mean, he kind

122
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 6: of was in the position where he's like, Okay, if

123
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 6: I make a birdie on one of the next three holes,

124
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 6: if I can play next three holes from sixteen seventeen,

125
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 6: eighteen one under, I'm probably gonna win the tournament. And

126
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 6: he's on sixteen. He's in a green side bunker. He's

127
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 6: got a forty yard shot, thirty five yard shot, really

128
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 6: really challenging shot, but he has a hazard at the

129
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 6: end of the hole, like the green, the way it's

130
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 6: a huge green, and the flags you know, far right

131
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 6: if you're looking at a far left from the other angle,

132
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 6: and he just takes a full swing and just one

133
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 6: of the best shots I've seen. I mean the action

134
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 6: on that shot. I mean, I don't know whe where

135
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 6: does that ring for you? As that one of the

136
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:57,720
Speaker 6: top shots of the year so far.

137
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 4: I can't remember this year. This year is apparently did

138
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 4: forty seven months or something like that. So it's really

139
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 4: hard for me to go back and be like, oh, well,

140
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 4: there's this one shot on Friday at the American Express

141
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 4: and Palm Spring. I can't.

142
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 3: I just have no idea. My mind has been completely erase.

143
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 4: I will say that when the ball left his club face,

144
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 4: and I had a little on Thompson, and I won't.

145
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 3: Profess to, you know, have been on him.

146
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 4: But we do a little draft at Action Network with

147
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 4: a bunch of the guys and just a nice little

148
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 4: you know, hey, everyone throwing a few bucks.

149
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 3: We have a zoom call.

150
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 4: It's more about the camaraderie and everyone kind of getting

151
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 4: more into golf and making some picks. And my last

152
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 4: round pick was Michael Thompson. And it's sort of a

153
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 4: winner take all deal. So I at least had some

154
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 4: investment in Michael Thompson, you know, not a big deal,

155
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 4: just taking some money off some coworkers. In any case,

156
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 4: the ball left the club face out of that pubet.

157
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 4: I was like, he killed it, Oh my god. He like,

158
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,719
Speaker 4: it's going over the green into the rough. Hopefully it

159
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 4: stops and doesn't go into the hazard back there, and

160
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 4: all of a sudden it just it lands softly, like

161
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 4: you know, a butterfly just coming down on the green

162
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 4: and and an easy tapping birdie there and he was

163
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 4: kind of cruising from there.

164
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 3: So I get that you and I are.

165
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 4: We're betting, we're doing dfs, we're doing pools, we're doing everything.

166
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 4: If you're listening to this right now, I'm guessing ninety

167
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 4: nine percent of you are doing the same thing. But

168
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 4: at certain times we have to sort of separate ourselves

169
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 4: from hey, I'm a golf better to hey, I'm a

170
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 4: golf fan. And the fact that we had in this

171
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 4: PGA Tour restart really six winners who are all varying

172
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 4: degrees of I don't want to say superstar, but at

173
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 4: least elite level talent. I mean from Daniel Berger, Webb Simpson,

174
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 4: Dustin Johnson, Bryson, d Chambeau, Colin moricow A, John Ram

175
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 4: in order. The first six are all like, hey, if

176
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 4: you know something about golf, you know those names, maybe

177
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 4: you know more about d Chambeau than you know about Burger,

178
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 4: but you still you know who those guys are. To

179
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 4: finally get an event where Michael Thompson wins, and like

180
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 4: I said earlier, is walking off the eighteen three choked

181
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 4: up tears in his eye meant so much to him

182
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 4: and I thought that was first of all, really cool

183
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 4: and you get a sense for what kind of guy

184
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 4: he is.

185
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 3: Based on social media.

186
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 4: I think it's very interesting to go on social media,

187
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 4: especially if you're following a lot of professional golfers and

188
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 4: read their thoughts after victory.

189
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 3: Because there were.

190
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 4: So many people within the PGA Tours kind of inner

191
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 4: circle who were.

192
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 3: Not only talking about Michael Thompson, like, Ah, he's a

193
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 3: good guy. I'm glad he won.

194
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 4: It's like, no, he's the best guy, Like he is great,

195
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 4: like Lee Westwood. Lee Westwood should have no real internal

196
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 4: ties to Michael Thompson. They didn't grow up together. They'd

197
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 4: like college golf together. They're really not even in the

198
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 4: same era of golf. They're you know, west was probably

199
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 4: ten years older than him. Lee Westwood tweeted, Michael Thompson's

200
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 4: not just a great golfer, he is one of.

201
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 3: The greatest guys on a PGA tour. I'm so happy

202
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 3: for him.

203
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 4: Like that speaks volumes when a guy like that says

204
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 4: that about a recent victor, a recent winner. So even

205
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 4: if your bottom line was zero dollars for the past

206
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 4: week because you were on nothing, and trust me, I

207
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 4: was right there with you, you can appreciate a really

208
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 4: cool victory for a guy that certainly deserves it, with

209
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 4: the type of type of player and type of man

210
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 4: that a lot of.

211
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,719
Speaker 3: His peers said he was anything else from this past week.

212
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 4: We want to talk well Adam Long, We want to

213
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 4: talk Charles schwartz Schwartzel's hat. We want to talk what's

214
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 4: wrong with Brooks and DJ, which I think is a

215
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 4: very valid way of getting into the WGC this week,

216
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 4: where DJ and Brooks have both won on this golf course.

217
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 4: In fact, Brooks is the defending champion. I mean, maybe

218
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 4: we'll start there.

219
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 3: Can you expect.

220
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 4: Anything from those two guys based on what we saw

221
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 4: really the last two weeks.

222
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,719
Speaker 3: Dustin goes eighty eighty.

223
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 4: At the Memorial, he withdraws with a supposed back injury

224
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 4: from the three M and now he's going to Memphis

225
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 4: where he's won in the past, and then Brooks just

226
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 4: keeps missing cuts, just not doing much and he's playing

227
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 4: again this week too.

228
00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 3: Is the defending champion?

229
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 4: Is there either the the guys that we can look

230
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 4: at and say, okay, I'm fairly confident he'll turn it around.

231
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 5: Uh no for me?

232
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, and then yeah, to put a ball in three

233
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 6: am shout out to Adam Long and you have the

234
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 6: halt by Schortzel. Was fun and it's good to see

235
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 6: that that field I didn't work out, but I love.

236
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 5: Fields like that. It's it's a it's a fun grind

237
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 5: as an avid golf fan. But yeah, we got to

238
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 5: this week.

239
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 6: We have all the stars WGC no cut, so a

240
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 6: lot of different strategies you have to take into account

241
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 6: for betting in DFS, and yeah, Brooks kept getting DJ

242
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 6: I think are two of the people you kind of

243
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 6: have to look at initially and just say, okay, how

244
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 6: are we going to evaluate him? I mean, Brooks is

245
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 6: a lot easier for me, still talking about the knee injury.

246
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 6: He just looked visibly frustrated. I mean he's leaving wedge

247
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 6: shots short, he's missing putts, and when Brooks was winning

248
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,199
Speaker 6: majors and just dominating.

249
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 5: He was.

250
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 6: He's always been great off the tee, but he really

251
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 6: dialed in that wedge game, and he was just dynamite

252
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 6: on short cuts. And now he's he's struggling with his

253
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 6: wedges and he's struggling with his short putts and that's

254
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 6: the reason he's missing cuts. He's still hitting the ball

255
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 6: pretty well off the tee, you know, not not elite

256
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 6: like he used to be. But I think there's something wrong.

257
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 6: I think the knees clearly bothering him. He's very frustrated

258
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 6: if we have so many good golfers and those guys

259
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 6: are cheaper than they have been, but there's still much

260
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 6: better bargains in the markets, in my opinion, and DJ

261
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 6: is much more perplexing. I think there's potentially something. I

262
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 6: don't buy a back injury, but it's really strange to

263
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 6: see him play so poorly then just come out and

264
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 6: just have absolutely amazing ball striking numbers at the RBC,

265
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 6: and then he goes out and wins, and it's like, Okay,

266
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 6: DJ's back, like he's got the swagger back. And then

267
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 6: he goes eighty eighty Memorial and withdrawals after one day

268
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,079
Speaker 6: last week and mean man I'm perplexed by DJ. I

269
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 6: guess if I had to buy, one of the two

270
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 6: would be him. But I am certainly not confident in DJ.

271
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 3: What do you think, Well, I'll start with DJ.

272
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 4: Here's the problem is that at a WGC, where especially

273
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 4: if you're playing DFS and everyone's gonna have six guys

274
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 4: getting through the weekend, ostensibly you certainly don't want to

275
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,079
Speaker 4: invest too much of the guy who might withdraw after

276
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 4: the first round if he shoots seventy eight. And so

277
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 4: I think there's there's that possibility if you take DJ

278
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 4: this week and you're sitting there with your fingers crossed hoping, now, man,

279
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 4: if he makes a few bogies like is he gonna

280
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 4: stick around or is he leaving? And so I just

281
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 4: don't see how you can really invest much in DJ

282
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 4: unless you want to be just a total contrarian this

283
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 4: week and say, hey, look, he's going to be low

284
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 4: owned in a really big name field, and he at

285
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 4: least has one here before, and he's one actually not

286
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 4: that long ago, like you said at the Travelers. So maybe,

287
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 4: just maybe all the kind of stars align and I'll

288
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 4: try it. But as far as Brooks, I think that

289
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 4: we're searching for something with Brooks, and we collectively tend

290
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 4: to either look at and say, well, it's not a

291
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,839
Speaker 4: major and so he's not motivated enough, or yeah, the

292
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 4: knees not one hundred percent. So maybe it's that I

293
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 4: I throughout my column this week my preview that you

294
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 4: know what, maybe he's just not hitting.

295
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 3: The ball well.

296
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 4: And he certainly isn't putting well right now, and I

297
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 4: think that's probably the bigger part of the issue. And look,

298
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 4: I tend to think that it's easier to fit putting

299
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 4: then a swing it's not working for you, as opposed

300
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 4: to hey, he's putting fine, and you know, he's hitting

301
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 4: the ball all over the place. So I think there

302
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 4: is a little hope for optimism moving forward. But dude's

303
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 4: kind of running out of time, and he's in the

304
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 4: featured groups once again because he's the defending champ this

305
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 4: week and boy, as the one hundred and fifty fifth

306
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 4: ranked player on the FedEx Cup Points list going into

307
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 4: this one, maybe just maybe Brooks could use a week

308
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 4: away from the spotlight just you know, kind of let

309
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 4: him be throw them in like some pairing with two

310
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 4: other guys who are you know, okay, they're all kind

311
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 4: of prioritized in a certain order, so it's not gonna

312
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 4: be too complete. No names, but like just kind of

313
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 4: let him get away from the cameras a little bit,

314
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 4: let him get away from.

315
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 3: The spotlight for a little bit, let him play some

316
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 3: golf and see if.

317
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 4: Maybe that helps him as opposed to being in these

318
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 4: big boy groups. But he's got another one this week,

319
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 4: at least for the first two rounds.

320
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 3: So Peter, let's get through.

321
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 4: Let's get to the first part of this, which is

322
00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 4: obviously this upper tier, and really we've got Rom, JT. Bryson,

323
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 4: and Rory is the top four favorites this week, kind

324
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 4: of separating themselves just.

325
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 3: A little bit.

326
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 4: I know you're a wrong guy. You talked about Rory

327
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 4: right off the top. I teased my pick, which I'll

328
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 4: get to in a second. But is Rory your guy

329
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 4: out of these kind of top four players on the board?

330
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, at the prices that he is, I mean, the

331
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 6: Rom thing was just ridiculous. You look at Rom's game,

332
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 6: I mean he catapults the number one may before the win.

333
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 6: People are talking about him like he's, you know, a

334
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 6: borderline top ten player, which was insane. Does everything exceptional,

335
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 6: just no holes in his game, and it's his track

336
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 6: record at his age is you know, it's not Tiger Woods,

337
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 6: but it's it's it's up there with you know, basically

338
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 6: any other.

339
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 5: Golfer for the start of his career.

340
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 6: So Rom's number one now, you know, I think Rory

341
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 6: is probably still the best player, which is why I'm

342
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 6: buying him.

343
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 5: But yeah, all these guys are compelling.

344
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 6: I mean, in a birdie fest, I like having Bryson,

345
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 6: you know, the lot where he missed the cut after

346
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 6: making a ten.

347
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 5: It's kind of a you know, a weird situation. I

348
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 5: think this of course sets a better for him.

349
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 6: So I love Bryson and JT is arguably my favorite

350
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 6: golfer on tour, just from you know, I like rooting

351
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 6: for JT. So it's easy to make a case for

352
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 6: all four and it's clearly that tier. I think that

353
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 6: those are the four best golfers by a good margin.

354
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 6: I love Xander. I know you're a can't lay guy,

355
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 6: but those are the top four for me. And I'll

356
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 6: probably have exposure to all four in DFS this week.

357
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 6: From a bety perspective, I can't see too much on them.

358
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 6: Maybe it's maybe some bets of Rory so far.

359
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think he nailed it there. I don't dislike

360
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 4: any of the four. I can't look at any of them,

361
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 4: so absolutely not stay away from him. I think that,

362
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 4: you know, if you want to make a case for

363
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 4: any one of those four guys, you certainly can.

364
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 3: I like your call of Rory.

365
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 4: I think that he's, first of all, kind of got

366
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 4: two levels.

367
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 3: Of redemption that he's going after this week.

368
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 4: First, he played with Brooks the final pairing here last

369
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 4: year and really got kind of lapped on the final round,

370
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 4: got embarrassed a little bit by Brooks, even though he

371
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 4: didn't play terribly.

372
00:15:58,240 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 3: I think he's got something to prove off of that.

373
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 4: And then he lost that number one world ranking a

374
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 4: couple weeks ago to Rohm, so I think he's eager

375
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 4: to go out and get that back now that the

376
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 4: number one ranking itself means that much to him. It's

377
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 4: just a matter of Okay, now everyone's talking about the

378
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 4: other guys, and I think Rory could turn the tables

379
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 4: a little bit and he should have a little fire

380
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 4: burning this week.

381
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 3: That said, my favorite guy this week is Justin Thomas.

382
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 4: I just think that he's trending in the right direction.

383
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 4: He's been close. I mean, whether it's an opening nine

384
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 4: holes on Thursday morning, whether it's closing three holes for

385
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 4: the Workday Charity Open, It's like these little stretches of

386
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 4: golf have kept him from either winning or contending more closely.

387
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 4: So really like JT this week. And we tend to

388
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 4: look at Xander for these limited field events and we say, oh, well,

389
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 4: you know, those always suit Xander really well, and he

390
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 4: plays better in those.

391
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 3: He's won three of them.

392
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 4: And I agree with all of that, and I still

393
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 4: like Xander this week, But go back and look at

394
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 4: JT's record and limited field events the last seven wgc's.

395
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 4: He's been twelveth or better in six of them, so

396
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 4: he tends to play these really well. So I am

397
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 4: I'm going to be invested in JT this week. Let's

398
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 4: move down just a little bit more because I've got

399
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 4: a bunch of guys in this next tier that I

400
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 4: really like this week. I know you do as well, Peter,

401
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 4: where you're starting with this kind of next tier, the

402
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 4: you know, kind of twenty five thirty to one guys

403
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 4: a little bit higher Gidea, let's bet horses for courses.

404
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I think this is the home run tier.

405
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 6: I think this is where there's a lot of value

406
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,199
Speaker 6: and you're getting just some incredible names kind of in

407
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 6: this mid tier. So I'll start with is Adkie Matsiyama,

408
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,120
Speaker 6: who THEFS I actually like a lot. I know he's

409
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 6: coming off some poor form. His putter has not cooperated.

410
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 6: I mean it's pretty a standard a DECKI stuff where

411
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 6: his putting has just been really really marginal. And I

412
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 6: think marginal is putting it nicely, but ball striking still there,

413
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,439
Speaker 6: and you know he can get hot and make a

414
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 6: ton of birdies. You look at way to birdie average,

415
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 6: he's always at the top and you're getting a really

416
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,439
Speaker 6: steep discount on a Deckie matsiam And I think the

417
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 6: ball striking is still there. So that's kind of my standard.

418
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 6: By the you know, guy who's not putting as well,

419
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 6: by the ball striker player that.

420
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 5: I like a lot.

421
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 6: You're gonna put calling moore Kwa in this year, I

422
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 6: certainly like him. Call more Kwa. I mean, that's that's

423
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 6: a guy I always like JT. Callmore Kala. The two

424
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 6: best birdie makers or two best iron players, which should

425
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 6: result in a lot of birdie making. So I like

426
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 6: those guys a lot, and then yeah, you start getting down.

427
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 6: I mean Billy Billy Horse and Gary Woodland, two guys

428
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 6: have been playing a lot, probably have some exposure to them.

429
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 6: Horsell's prices come up after some really good play recently,

430
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 6: after just you know, some narrow miscuts, So that's a

431
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 6: little disappointing.

432
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 5: But I like those guys.

433
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 6: And the one player that might be a contrarion, you know,

434
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 6: fade the recency stuff is Paul Casey, who is just

435
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 6: talking about bad putting. I mean, Paul Casey just flags

436
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 6: every every you know, he's putting it close all the time,

437
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 6: he's hitting fairways, and then he's literally missing every breed.

438
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 6: But so I kind of want to buy some Paul Casey.

439
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,160
Speaker 6: That's a lot of names. Any of those that you hate,

440
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 6: any of those that you.

441
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 3: Like, Okay, so I'm going to react to a few

442
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:12,880
Speaker 3: of those here.

443
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 4: Paul Casey is a guy who I like when it's

444
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 4: really soft, when it's rained out, and he can fire

445
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 4: at flag sticks, hits the ball as high as just

446
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 4: about anybody on to ur. Rom's kind of the same way.

447
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 4: But Rom, I think is just in another tier where

448
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 4: he can. Yeah, I just obviously like dial it in

449
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 4: whenever he needs to. But Paul Casey's guy I like

450
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 4: in certain situations when they're playing softer greens, when you

451
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 4: can take that aim when it's not windy.

452
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 3: The wind and I.

453
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,120
Speaker 4: Know it's called TPC south wind for a reason, it's

454
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,639
Speaker 4: gonna be blowing by the forecast looks like double digit

455
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 4: mile per hour every day. And again, remember there's really

456
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 4: no morning rounds here. It's pretty much all afternoon rounds

457
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 4: because they're such a small field, so you're getting guys

458
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 4: when when the win will be sustained in the afternoons.

459
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 4: Casey is not a guy that I like in the

460
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 4: wind very much. Matsuyama is sort of the same way that.

461
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,439
Speaker 4: I just feel like they're such high ball strikers. That

462
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 4: doesn't mean they can't play well, doesn't mean they've never

463
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,159
Speaker 4: played well in the wind, just means that, you know,

464
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 4: I think it negates their advantage a little bit.

465
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 3: So guys that I do like when it's blowing.

466
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 4: Mark Leishman is always near the top of my list,

467
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:27,360
Speaker 4: and he's been playing decently recently, so I like him.

468
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,639
Speaker 3: Gary Woodland hits that stinger off the tee. If it

469
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 3: gets really.

470
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 4: Blowing out there, I think Gary Woodland's guy they can

471
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 4: play well. Ricky Fowler is one of the best win

472
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 4: players in the world. Before that eighty one to start

473
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,640
Speaker 4: out Memorial, he'd been getting it together and he wound

474
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 4: up shooting a sixty eight. He missed the cut which

475
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 4: has sixty eight in the second round, so it's not

476
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 4: like he's totally lost something. He just had one beat

477
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 4: outlier around. And then Patrick Reid is a guy who

478
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 4: I knew you.

479
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 5: Were going to say, Patrick Reed, that's the guy I.

480
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 3: Like Patrick Reid.

481
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 4: This week, I want to see what you think of Reid,

482
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 4: especially and a WGC that's followed by a major championship.

483
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 4: We've got the PGA next week, so two thirds of

484
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,159
Speaker 4: the guys by the weekend are gonna be out of

485
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 4: this one mentally checked out.

486
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:09,640
Speaker 3: Get me the TPC Harding Park.

487
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,120
Speaker 4: I'm done with this week, even though I can't miss

488
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 4: the cut. I've got to stick around for the weekend.

489
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 4: But you know, when you're in thirty first place going

490
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,119
Speaker 4: into the weekend, you really don't care for most of

491
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 4: the players. Patrick Reid in three of his last four

492
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 4: starts at Colonial, he was T. Thirty five entering the weekend,

493
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:27,360
Speaker 4: finished T.

494
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 3: Seven.

495
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,959
Speaker 4: At the Travelers, he was T. Fifty three entering the weekend,

496
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 4: finished T. Twenty four, and at the Memorial just two

497
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 4: weeks ago, he was T. Sixty four going into the weekend,

498
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 4: finished T ten.

499
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,120
Speaker 3: What does that tell us? It tells us that when.

500
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 4: He's not in serious contention going into Saturday, when most

501
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 4: guys would just say, hey, you know what, I'm just

502
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 4: gonna see what I can do, and you know, I'll

503
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,640
Speaker 4: try to play well obviously, but not really a big deal.

504
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 3: You know, I'm not gonna win. Patrick Reid goes, I'm

505
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:55,199
Speaker 3: gonna see how low I can go.

506
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 4: I'm gonna challenge myself. I'm gonna grind this weekend and

507
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 4: see if I can make some money and see I

508
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 4: can do. And I love that, and I especially love

509
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 4: it this week where if he does shoot two even

510
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 4: bar rounds, it's just sort of eh going into the weekend.

511
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 3: I think most guys.

512
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 4: They're gonna tank, not think they're gonna not try. It's

513
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 4: just sort of, hey, I'm not real motivating. I think

514
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 4: Patrick Reid stays extra motivated when he is still out

515
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 4: of contention going into the weekend.

516
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,159
Speaker 3: So that's what I love about him this week. How

517
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 3: do you feel about that?

518
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 4: I mean, are you looking for a guy that, Hey,

519
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,199
Speaker 4: at list, I'm gonna get four good, solid rounds out

520
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 4: of him, and he's gonna try for me.

521
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know it all fits up. Ball at the

522
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:34,640
Speaker 5: top is Bryson.

523
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 6: There's a couple of guys on tour that I just

524
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 6: feel like aren't gonna They're gonna keep grinding, and there's

525
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 6: certain you know, DJ and Kapko he talked about before.

526
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 6: Those are two of the guys I think people think

527
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 6: of that are just fine to mail it in. You know,

528
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 6: there's a lot of money on the line here and

529
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 6: people want to be sharp going in and they want

530
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 6: momentum going into a major. So I think most people

531
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 6: will be motivated. But it's gonna be hot, it's gonna

532
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 6: be windy. I mean, I get it. So I like

533
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,160
Speaker 6: to read. But I love this tier and I think

534
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,119
Speaker 6: you can make a lot of lineups, but you can

535
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 6: also go stars and scrubs. I'll kick to you, who

536
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 6: do you like in this bottom tier?

537
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 4: Jason, I've got I think three guys that I really like.

538
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 3: First one, I expect him to be very popular because

539
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 3: he played.

540
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 4: Really well at the Memorial and I think a lot

541
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,199
Speaker 4: of guys are on him for for bigger events.

542
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 3: Now is Matt Wallace. He has been.

543
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 4: Progressing really nicely, played six events now on the PGA

544
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 4: Tour since the restart, and seems like he's he's improving

545
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 4: almost at a steady pace week two week. So I

546
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,880
Speaker 4: think Matt Wallace I was surprised at first of all,

547
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 4: his price. I don't think I bet him outright to win,

548
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 4: although it's not out of the realm possibility, but at

549
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 4: least his price in DFS is I think too low

550
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 4: this week based on how he's played. There you go

551
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 4: the good and then I'm gonna give you two guys who,

552
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 4: if the wind is blowing, could play pretty well. Andrew

553
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 4: Landry is a guy that's won twice on the PGA Tour,

554
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 4: both times San Antonio and Palm Springs, both times when.

555
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 3: The wind was blowing.

556
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 4: And the third guy, Hey, if the wind's gonna blow,

557
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 4: take guy from Scotland. Nobody really talks much about Robert

558
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 4: McIntyre on this side of the pond. Twenty three years old,

559
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 4: Lefty had three runner up finishes on the European Tour

560
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 4: last year.

561
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 3: He's really good.

562
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 4: The only thing that gets me off him a little

563
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,680
Speaker 4: bit this week is that he hasn't played competitive golf

564
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:29,399
Speaker 4: in four months. He hasn't played since before the pandemic stoppage,

565
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 4: So I don't know what kind of form he is in.

566
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 4: But there are a lot of these WGC events where,

567
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 4: you know, just like Mexico a few months ago, Eric

568
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 4: van Royan finishes T three and all of a sudden,

569
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 4: He's got a lot of good things that he can

570
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 4: take from that, not just the check and the world

571
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,719
Speaker 4: ranking stuff, but also the temporary memberships and all those

572
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 4: kind of things. So if McIntyre wants to play more

573
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 4: over here, he could be extra motivated to go out

574
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 4: and play really well this week.

575
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 3: So what do you think of those.

576
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 5: I like him. I love the Wallas. I was in

577
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 5: Wallas three guys too.

578
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 6: Wallace is one of the three guys that I for

579
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 6: sure was gonna name Max Homa I'll give a little

580
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 6: shout out to. I don't know if he necessarily fits

581
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,439
Speaker 6: in this tier. He's kind of probably the bottom of

582
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 6: the mid tier, I guess, But yeah, I got I

583
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 6: got two others.

584
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,120
Speaker 5: I think the Wallace call is really good. Another euro

585
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,880
Speaker 5: who is starting to play really well, really.

586
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 6: Well as Danny Willett, and I have been playing a

587
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 6: lot of Danny Willett. I think he's I mean by

588
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 6: the stats, he looks like he's really found it again.

589
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 6: He was trending super hard statistically before he won the Masters,

590
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,159
Speaker 6: and then after winning the Masters something happened where his

591
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:33,719
Speaker 6: golf just completely fell off a cliff.

592
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 5: That really good form seems to be coming back.

593
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 6: We've seen that a lot lately on the PGA Tour,

594
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 6: So I like him quite a bit. I guess I'll

595
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 6: give you too. Then, the one guy for sure is

596
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 6: Benny On. I'm always going to be buying Benny On.

597
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 6: I goes low and then he blows up.

598
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 5: His putter is just.

599
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,159
Speaker 6: The most maddening thing in the whole world. He's the

600
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 6: greatest guy to sweat because you're just like, oh, fairway

601
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:57,160
Speaker 6: eight feet, you get excited they are, but it's nice.

602
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 4: Only Joaquin Neeman's got a little Benny On dise He's

603
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 4: going on right now, Dale, I'll tell you that much.

604
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, Waku Deven hits a good He's another interesting one.

605
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 6: And then the last guy, and we'll see if he

606
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 6: stays in the tournament. There's no recency buys some of him.

607
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 6: He's been drawn a couple of times. He need to

608
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 6: do a little more research. Is Co crack co Crack,

609
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 6: Cameron Champ if you want to take some bombers that

610
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,680
Speaker 6: ad some upside Birdie making. I don't mind either of those.

611
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 6: But it's a stacked field and I think it's really important.

612
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 6: We're about to do our DraftKings lineup, but this week

613
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 6: more than ever, you need a unique lineup. That's a

614
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 6: huge thing. Everyone gets all their golfers through the cut

615
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 6: and you need to chase Birdie's. People know to do that,

616
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 6: so leaving money on the table, especially in the bigger

617
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 6: contest is really important.

618
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gonna get to that lineup in just a minute.

619
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,359
Speaker 4: It's a little disappointing that we don't have lineups dfs

620
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 4: for the Barracuda Championship, but we will get to a

621
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 4: little bit of a breakdown on that as well. But first,

Speaker 4: and I get to our DFS lineup for this week.

636
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 1: I want to be a DFS millionaire. You're just one

637
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: lineup away.

638
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: We're gonna go with him, and you're gonna play better

639
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 2: than you ever dreamed of the couch.

640
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 3: God damn it, that's what I have matter of you.

641
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:46,680
Speaker 1: So let's get drafting.

642
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:50,439
Speaker 3: You said you gotta stay unique this week.

643
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 4: Will you be spending every cent of your salary cap

644
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,920
Speaker 4: in any lineup this week?

645
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, certain lineups.

646
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 6: I'm sure I'll have it all spend but cash games

647
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 6: for sure, you know, I'll just.

648
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:03,159
Speaker 5: I'm gonna do it.

649
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 6: I think is optimal but yeah, like low dollar kind

650
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:08,919
Speaker 6: of more lottery type payout scenarios.

651
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 5: One of the easiest way to be unique is just

652
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 5: leaving money on the table.

653
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 6: So yeah, on Fantasy Labs, there's a setting for that,

654
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 6: and I will absolutely be taking advantage of leaving money

655
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 6: on the table with the optimizers. So that's important. Let's

656
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 6: let's go with the team that maybe we leave a

657
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:24,160
Speaker 6: little bit of money on the table.

658
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll take the first I've been taken the first

659
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:27,439
Speaker 4: pick in a while, and we're gonna go with a

660
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 4: guy that we obviously both.

661
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 3: Like because we just talked about a minute ago.

662
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 4: But I'm gonna leave some money on the table so

663
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 4: we can go after some big guns. And I'm going

664
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,840
Speaker 4: Matt Wallace right off the time. I expect him to

665
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 4: be popular this week. Sixty seven hundred. I thought he

666
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 4: would come in more like seventy seven hundred this week,

667
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 4: but sixty seven hundred is a price that's too good

668
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:45,720
Speaker 4: to ignore for Matt Wallace.

669
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 6: He actually might not be as popular as you think.

670
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 6: I've been playing a good bit of Wallace and no

671
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 6: one seems to be on him. He's almost always one

672
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 6: of the guys I really need. Maybe I'm wrong on

673
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 6: that this week, but I think he's a really solid,

674
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 6: solid play. I'll spend I'll spend some money. Let's try

675
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 6: to have a Rory JT team. I like the idea

676
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 6: of going stars and scrubs. I'll put in Rory right

677
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 6: now on the team as well.

678
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 4: Okay, and I guess that leaves JT for me because

679
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 4: he is, like I said earlier, my favorite play. I

680
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 4: will have him in a lot of lineups, and I'll

681
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 4: have him in this lineup at ten seven draftkns.

682
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 5: Love it and I JT.

683
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 6: I mean, I think my two favorite golfers on tour,

684
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 6: no disrespect to anyone else, but my two favorite guys

685
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 6: are are JT and Morikawas So watching those guys battle

686
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 6: it out, I think they're just huge assets for the tour.

687
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 4: I love those guys mine, by the way, in case

688
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 4: anyone's wondering, minor Nicholas and Palmer.

689
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 3: So you know, I don't want to play favorites or anything.

690
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 3: And then come on, man, I'm trying not to play favorites.

691
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 5: Okay, all right, Steve.

692
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 3: Got a great I've got such a good Steel story.

693
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 3: Maybe we'll get to it.

694
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 5: And Steele is up there.

695
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 6: I'm just trying not to try not to slur too hard.

696
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 6: Once we'll all get out there, and then Steel friend,

697
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 6: he's friend of the podcast. Statistically speaking, he's a remarkably

698
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 6: average tour player, but it's the steely demeanor and resolve

699
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 6: and plaid the foundation for his achievements. All Right, we're

700
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 6: not totally dumpster diving. We have seventy one hundred per

701
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 6: player left. I'll go with Danny Willett, who I think

702
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 6: is another guy that just undervalued right now, playing some

703
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 6: really really good golf, and obviously we've seen him show

704
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 6: up and win big tournaments, including the Masters.

705
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 5: So feel pretty good about Danny will this week.

706
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like that call a lot.

707
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,400
Speaker 4: I'm here with you know, we've got seventy one to

708
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 4: fifty per player left, two spots.

709
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 3: I'm looking at Burn Weisberger and I like him. But

710
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 3: I just got a good feeling about Bobby McIntyre this week.

711
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 5: I just feel like I've got way more for ownership.

712
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, ownership is going to be down. I think that

713
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 4: he's a guy that has something to prove. I think

714
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 4: that most people playing in contest like this I've never

715
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 4: heard of him, or if they've heard of him. They're

716
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 4: just not thinking about him in the context of a

717
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 4: US event, especially if the wind is blown, which it's

718
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 4: supposed to.

719
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 3: I like McIntyre a lot at sixty four hundred.

720
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 6: Okay, I like that, So now we have seventy nine

721
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 6: hundred left. Not gonna go chock and spend the money

722
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 6: with Wolf, although Wolf's a little interesting to me. Let's

723
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 6: go with your boy Leishman.

724
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 5: I don't know if I.

725
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 6: Haven't thought of enough about Leachman, but I would go

726
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 6: in this spot either Leishman and then someone actually wants

727
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 6: your opinion on that's really been disappointing since the COVID

728
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 6: swing started up. Some JM at seventy five hundred is

729
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 6: a cheap price tag, but his golf has been pretty

730
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 6: marginal late.

731
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 5: What do you think's going on with Snjay?

732
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 4: I couldn't tell you. He's just not hitting the ball

733
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 4: the way he was beforehand. But he's a guy that

734
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 4: tends to be a momentum guy. And I bring that

735
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 4: up because you know, you can kind of see him

736
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 4: building towards some of his bigger results. And I bring

737
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 4: that up with and I mentioned his name.

738
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 3: Earlier, and you mentioned his name, Billy Horshell and Billy Horschell.

739
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 3: If you look back, his.

740
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 4: Best results come when he's played okay, he played really

741
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 4: well for a week they played really really well, and

742
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 4: then you can.

743
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 3: See it coming. It's like, oh and now, oh okay, yeah.

744
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 4: Like, oh, we should have been either you were on

745
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 4: Horshal or you're kicking yourself because you knew you should

746
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 4: have been on Horshal.

747
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 3: Because he was basically like showing you his hand. He's like, hey,

748
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 3: look I got four aces in my and here they are,

749
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 3: and now we're gonna bet.

750
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 4: You should probably know that, Hey, I've got a good hand,

751
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 4: and I'm showing you something.

752
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 3: And so.

753
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 4: I think Horseal right now with a thirteenth and a

754
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 4: seventh and his last two starts is basically showing you

755
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 4: his hand. He's got some momentum and some JM is

756
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 4: sort of on the other end of things right now,

757
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 4: the opposite end of the spectrum where he's a momentum

758
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 4: guy and has zero momentum. So even though he's lower

759
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 4: placed that I don't like him as much, but I

760
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 4: do like Horsell because of that reason. There are other

761
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 4: players who can basically just go, oh, I missed three

762
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 4: cuts in a row and here I am gonna win.

763
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 4: I mean, DJ, you know, is showing that he's gone

764
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,960
Speaker 4: from basically nothing to winning to nothing again. So you know,

765
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 4: it's certainly not out of the realm with possibility for

766
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 4: some players.

767
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 3: But I think it's.

768
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 4: Important to separate momentum guys from non momentum guys.

769
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's well said, that's something to look at in

770
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 6: the data, and that's that's really interesting. I know there's

771
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 6: definitely guys that start to trend and other guys who

772
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 6: are just more volatile in their play. So like that lineup,

773
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 6: we got leashmen in there, and we have the three

774
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 6: euros that we really wanted to target, and then we

775
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 6: got you know, the two studs and leash So I

776
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 6: think that's a pretty good squad.

777
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:10,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, going through the list, it's McElroy, Thomas, Leishman, Willett,

778
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 4: Wallace and McIntyre.

779
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 5: Actually, that's a.

780
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 3: Wgc ish lineup if I've ever seen one. I kind

781
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 3: of like that too.

782
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 5: Leaving some money on the table. I think that's hopefully sharp.

783
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 5: Well hopefully we can win some money on that lineup.

784
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like that one.

785
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 4: I hope that not too many people are are are

786
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 4: copying what we're.

787
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 3: Doing this week, because I'm put down.

788
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 4: A few extra lineups this week as well, So real quick,

789
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 4: I know we've used up a lot of our time already,

790
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 4: but there are so many other tournaments going on this week.

791
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 4: On the PGA Tour, there's an alternate field event at

792
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:49,960
Speaker 4: the Barracuda Championship. And then if you want to look elsewhere,

793
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,719
Speaker 4: there's a Euro Tour event, the Hero Open. They're playing

794
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 4: on the corn Ferry Tour, they're playing the LPGA, They're

795
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 4: playing PGA Tour champions Is there anything else you're looking

796
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 4: at this week? Stick with PGA Tour, look at Barracuda,

797
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 4: or you're going elsewhere for maybe some other picks.

798
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 6: I'm sure I'm gonna fire some euro in there. I

799
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:09,360
Speaker 6: think I need to do some more research before I

800
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 6: go anything. I do have some opinions already on the Barracuda.

801
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,319
Speaker 6: But it is an awesome time to be a golf fan,

802
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,279
Speaker 6: and I think that you can absolutely take advantage of,

803
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 6: you know, all the different line chopping and just so

804
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 6: many markets.

805
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 5: It's a tougher time to be an operator. Now.

806
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 6: They got all the golf, they got baseball, they got

807
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 6: basketball starting up, so a lot of stuff going.

808
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 5: On if you're an operator.

809
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 6: But yeah, on the barracudah a couple of names, but

810
00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 6: Colly for sure, I think is really interesting. I've been

811
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 6: all over Aaron Wise. He keeps missing the cut by one.

812
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:37,360
Speaker 6: I'm sure now that I can't play him in the DNFs.

813
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 6: He's gonna win. And shout out to Ryan Moore, who

814
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 6: a guy that I'm always advocating for.

815
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 5: I don't know if I can advrogate for him being

816
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,479
Speaker 5: the favorite. Butt to Ryan Moore?

817
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 3: How about that Ryan Moore the favorite in this field

818
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 3: at eighteen to one going down list, Ryan Moore, Russell Henley,

819
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 3: Brendan Steele, who we mentioned one of the podcast.

820
00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know it's a different course this year at

821
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,799
Speaker 4: the Barracuda, but he has been eighth or better in

822
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 4: four of his six starts in this event. So Alexander

823
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 4: Norton looked really good for a while this past week,

824
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 4: and Patrick Rodgers rounds out the top five on the board.

825
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 4: One more name here, Seamus Power is a guy that

826
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 4: I like a lot. He's fourteenth on the PGA Tour

827
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 4: in birdie average and as we all know, with modified

828
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,400
Speaker 4: stable for it, you'd rather go nine birdies.

829
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:21,319
Speaker 3: Nine bogies than.

830
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 4: Eighteen bars, You're gonna make a whole lot more points

831
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 4: that way. So I like the guys that post a

832
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:27,760
Speaker 4: lot of birdies. I think you have to think about

833
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:29,799
Speaker 4: the format for this week, Peter.

834
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:33,320
Speaker 6: I couldn't agree more. And yeah, it's more like draftings scoring.

835
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 6: So look at the way to birdie average stats and

836
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,200
Speaker 6: chase those guys. I think it makes a ton of sense.

837
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 5: Yeah.

838
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 4: Absolutely, And remember we are calling on all listeners of

839
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,880
Speaker 4: the Action Network podcast add to Apple podcast give us

840
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 4: a five star rating right at quick review only takes

841
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:53,240
Speaker 4: about thirty seconds. We can take the criticism. One last bet, Peter,

842
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 4: I'm to throw just like I haven't done any parlay

843
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 4: bets yet this year. You know, I have hard enough

844
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,799
Speaker 4: time picking one outright, But I feel like there could

845
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 4: be some chalk this week. Maybe a little justin Thomas

846
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 4: Davis Riley going for his third corn Ferry victory to

847
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 4: get the what they used to call the battlefield promotion

848
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 4: to the PGA Tour. Maybe a little parlay on those

849
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 4: two winning their respective events. Anything else you're looking at

850
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 4: one last play before we get going.

851
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 6: No, I think that's Riley is someone if I was

852
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:25,439
Speaker 6: going to name one name. That's that's where I would

853
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 6: go shout out to Josh Perry. You got to check

854
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,319
Speaker 6: out his good stuff. He's been killing it with the

855
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 6: corn Faerry, So yeah.

856
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:32,720
Speaker 5: Love that call.

857
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 6: And uh yeah, I think the one last thing that

858
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 6: i'd mentioned, you know, we talked a little bit about

859
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 6: the young guns. We hadn't mentioned in Victor Hoblin, whose

860
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 6: ball striking has been and he's basically on the COVID

861
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 6: win maybe not even I think he's been the best

862
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:48,640
Speaker 6: ball striker since the COVID twing started, So I like

863
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:49,239
Speaker 6: that for him.

864
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 5: The one thing maybe that he doesn't do well is

865
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 5: kind of around the kreens.

866
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,759
Speaker 6: Putter can be a little inconsistent, but if he's way on,

867
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 6: I think he can make a lot of birdies.

868
00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 5: And rooting for Hoblin to play well this.

869
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:01,319
Speaker 3: Week, you know it's gonna be a fun week.

870
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 4: When it took us this long to get to Victor Hovlin,

871
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 4: when we only tangentially mentioned Xander Schoffley, when there's so

872
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,399
Speaker 4: many other good players that we didn't even get to

873
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 4: who could certainly have a chance of winning this event,

874
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:16,880
Speaker 4: WGC FedEx, Saint Jude Invitational, and so many other events

875
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:21,360
Speaker 4: across the golf landscape this week. Can't wait for everything
