There's 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: a lot of setup work that we have to do 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: in order to make a tournament work. So I'm going 4 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:12,399 Speaker 1: to demonstrate to you just exactly how we do a 5 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,240 Speaker 1: shotgun start here. 6 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 2: Alright, alright, alright. 7 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 3: Dent no man, darn your. 8 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 4: Greetings to welcome to a Wednesday edition of The Shotgun Start. 9 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 4: It is June eleventh, Andy, How we doing, Brendan, I'm 10 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 4: doing great. 11 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 2: I gotta say. I am enjoying a lovely stay and 12 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 2: just a delightful city of Pittsburgh. It's just been a 13 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,279 Speaker 2: revelation to me this week. You like it, You're enjoying it. 14 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 2: You've been here whatever, twenty four hours, four to eight hours, 15 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 2: but you're all in. You're enjoying it. I am enjoying it. 16 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 2: I've been really thinking about it. I feel like, you know, 17 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:13,559 Speaker 2: we're just in a natural extension. We're in the rust belt. Sure, 18 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 2: you know we're deep in the rustle with that. I 19 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 2: don't know if they include themselves, I think so probably. 20 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 2: I don't know if it begins and ends in Youngstown 21 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 2: up to like Detroit, but maybe it counts. Sure, I 22 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 2: think it counts all right, you know, I just I'm 23 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 2: having a lovely time here. And I got to thinking, 24 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 2: I feel, I feel like Pittsburgh's natural extension of Ohio, 25 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 2: an extension of Ohio. Yeah, equippalm with that. Takhio and 26 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh really to me feel similar, Okay, something about the valleys, 27 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 2: the you know, only place with vegetation, you know, the people. 28 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 2: So I started to think, I've been asking a lot 29 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 2: of questions around about where Pittsburgh would fall in the 30 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: Ohio rankings if it was part of Ohio, been getting 31 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: a lot of anecdotal feedback. Would be at the top. 32 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 2: It'd be at the top. 33 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, but who were you were asking people in Pittsburgh 34 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 4: while you're here about where it would fall in the 35 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 4: rankings if it were in Ohio. 36 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 2: Some people who live in Pittsburgh were putting Pittsburgh. Actually, 37 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 2: I think only one Pittsburgh local okay, most actually, like 38 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,799 Speaker 2: a bunch of a bunch of Cleveland. Northeast Ohio residents 39 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: voted Pittsburgh number one. 40 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 4: Interesting, I'm curious who those Northeast Ohio residents were that 41 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 4: you found just you know, flocking out on the on 42 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 4: the grounds this day. 43 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 2: They were, they are out at Oakmont and really putting 44 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: their support behind Pittforgh. 45 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,399 Speaker 4: I like Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh's a pretty good city. I would 46 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 4: consider it a brother or sister city to Cleveland. I 47 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 4: think you like to drive a wedge, try to create 48 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 4: animosity amongst cities who generally like now. I don't like 49 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,679 Speaker 4: their football team, you know where it kind of used 50 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 4: to be rivals, you know, and haven't been lately. But 51 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 4: otherwise the people of Pittsburgh, the city of Pittsburgh, I 52 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 4: don't have any animosity towards but their football team, you know, 53 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 4: whatever it was kind of they're bad news Bears. The 54 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 4: NFL turned their eye, you know, turned the blind either 55 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 4: rampant's terror usage, and then they became a you know, 56 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,080 Speaker 4: a marquee franchise in the seventies and now they can't, 57 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 4: like ever have a losing season, while the Browns are 58 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 4: just Mickey Mouse Mickey Mouse Club of. 59 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 2: Year after year. 60 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 4: But otherwise I love Pittsford. I enjoy Pittsburgh animosity. No crossover, 61 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 4: but you're a you're enjoying it. You I am, okay. 62 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 4: I I had a great time. I guess you know 63 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 4: this shows I'm a Cubs fan. 64 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. I haven't gone to a lot of baseball games 65 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 2: that are just empty. Okay, Like most of the time 66 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 2: I go to baseball games, they're full stadiums. Okay. I 67 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 2: had a delightful time in an empty baseball stadium on 68 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: Monday night PNC Park. PNC Park watched the watch the 69 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 2: Pirates versus the Marlins. I found it to be about 70 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 2: the most relaxing thing you could do. If there's more people, 71 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 2: I wouldn't have been relaxed. The environment. It's great, welcome 72 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 2: to me to just kick back and relax, very chill. 73 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 2: Going to sparsely attended sporting events. It's kind of nice. 74 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 2: It's awesome. 75 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 4: Maybe I should go to an RSM Classic and not 76 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 4: the US Opens something like that. 77 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 2: Maybe that's where you speaking of a well attended event 78 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 2: this week in Pittsburgh. It's not the Pirates, no US Open. 79 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 4: US people are fire. You know what I think is 80 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,919 Speaker 4: going to bring them out. James Nicholas throwing out the 81 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 4: first pitch yesterday. All those people at PNC are sold, 82 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 4: They're hooked. They're now coming out to Oakmont to watch 83 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 4: James Nicholas after throughout the first pitch, did you see 84 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 4: Min Wu throughout the first pitch today. It's probably speedy, 85 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 4: but inaccurate. It wouldn't be my guess. 86 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 2: I also, I think I saw that Joel Damon throughout 87 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 2: the first pitch in Seattle. 88 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 4: Because he's not here. I was gonna say he's not 89 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 4: in the field. Okay, we are going live. This is 90 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 4: Tuesday night. We're in Pittsburgh. We're hiding in the attic 91 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 4: because all the lights don't work on the first floor. 92 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 4: We've got new headset Mike's Uh. We are supposed to 93 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 4: apologize if the YouTube stream is choppy. Uh, I apologize 94 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 4: if you're watching it live. Uh, but you know we're 95 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 4: going to re upload it if we have to. There'll 96 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 4: be a fresh video on YouTube if you want to 97 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 4: consume the entire video. 98 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 2: How are we? Is it choppy? PJ? 99 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 4: Okay, well, there we go. So disclaimer may be unnecessary. 100 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 4: But we're often cooking. We're at the US Open. 101 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 2: Is this our We did Brookline, we did la we 102 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 2: did Piehurst. Now we're at Pittsburgh. We did. 103 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 4: Did not do wing Foot for the pandemic year. I 104 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 4: don't think we were for that one. We did, Yeah, 105 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 4: I see that was tough. Remember how hot it was? 106 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,039 Speaker 2: We had no a C. We were in that little 107 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 2: one bedroom. 108 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,799 Speaker 4: Well, come far, we've come. Now we have no lights, 109 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 4: but we do have a C. We've come so far. 110 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 4: At least I'd rather that be the case. I'd have 111 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 4: a C but no lights on the first floor. So 112 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 4: we've come so far. Little Fisher in Pacific Grown and Carmel. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 113 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 4: that was good. Oh there's one hundred degrees in there. 114 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 2: You know. I think, like you go through like your favorites, 115 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 2: and obviously, like the Masters is such a special week. 116 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 2: The Open is like I think, probably my favorite to 117 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 2: just watch just because of the time. But the US 118 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 2: Open is freaking awesome. I love that it goes different places. 119 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 2: I love that, like everywhere has a different feel. I 120 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 2: love the identity. Like you know, obviously I'm biased. I'm 121 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 2: very into golf courses. I love that the golf course 122 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 2: is a huge story every time you come to the 123 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 2: US Open because of the rotating aspect. It might also 124 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 2: be why, you know, the anchor site theory kind of 125 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 2: sucks because we don't get as much for enough rotation. Yeah, 126 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 2: we don't get enough rotation. But the I mean this 127 00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: is awesome. I remember the the Oak on twenty sixteen, 128 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 2: that was the first major I covered with the like 129 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 2: the Frida Egg existing like it was the first first 130 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 2: US Open in the Frida Egg's existence. It's awesome for 131 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 2: it to be back here. It's a badass golf course, 132 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 2: and I think it's going to be an awesome tournament. 133 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 2: The way the weather's kind of shaping up. It got 134 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 2: really breezy this afternoon was great for firming up the 135 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 2: golf course. Yep. I talked to I talked to a 136 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 2: very knowledgeable agronomy expert this afternoon and he was opining 137 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 2: that if the wind stays up, the place is going 138 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 2: to get pretty good over the next twenty four hours. Yeah. 139 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 4: I think we're you know, it's a long way to 140 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 4: come back from all the rain they got, you know, 141 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 4: for last weekend Friday into almost Monday this week Monday morning, 142 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 4: but they're on their way. The wind today was a 143 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 4: critical factor. It wasn't crazy humid either. 144 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: Today. It didn't seem like it at least. I don't 145 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 2: check me on that. It's just. 146 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 4: Obviously we are I've spent kind of marking this one 147 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 4: for a year, really since we left Pinehurst almost and 148 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 4: everything about it that's come together this week feels like grand, 149 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 4: like big, This is like a big championship. I don't 150 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 4: want to say it's perfect, but it's the first one 151 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 4: in a while where that doesn't There doesn't feel like 152 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 4: there's like massive sort of controversy drama with the player 153 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 4: some sort of like there's still a live under like 154 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 4: live is kind of out of the drama of it, 155 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 4: or the like who's going, who's staying?

But 168 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 4: it just feels like a like just really big, grand 169 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 4: perfect championship where like the most interesting and compelling part 170 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 4: for these three days is just like when can we 171 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 4: start the golf? And I don't think that's always been 172 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 4: the case, Like, of course the golf course has been 173 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 4: a massive subject, but not in the way that you know, oh, 174 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 4: is this event up to snuff, like where we get 175 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 4: might get occasionally at a recent PGA or two, and 176 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 4: or are like our layers different talking points leading up 177 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 4: to this one than at quil Hollow about golf. Yeah, 178 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 4: there's no quarreling over anything. There's some you know, there's 179 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,719 Speaker 4: no moaning, bitching and whaling from players because Oakemont is 180 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 4: the one place that or one of the few that 181 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 4: sort of I would maybe say, the only place where 182 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 4: the USGA can kind of just like I wrote the newsletter, 183 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 4: they can just do the shrug emoji when the player 184 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 4: witches at them, like, oh, it's just Oakmont as opposed 185 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 4: to being like the red faced emoji of like. 186 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 2: Oh scared or embarrassed. So they're they're just like Kim 187 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,559 Speaker 2: called them Mickey mouse screens. 188 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, what am I supposed to do with that? What 189 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 4: about like I'm trying to think of like Mickey Mouse canotes. 190 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 4: I think for that contes like artificially hard. Yeah, but 191 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 4: like to me, when I think Mickey Mouse, it means 192 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 4: like artificially like built up. 193 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 2: And you've been to you've been to Disney World, I 194 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 2: have what would you know, what would what would that 195 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 2: be in the Disney World context? 196 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 4: Uh, manufactured? I like ARTI like overdone, I guess is 197 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 4: what it would be. These just kind of are on 198 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 4: top of the ground of where they were, Like, now 199 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 4: are they with modern agronomy? Are they like incredibly slick 200 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 4: and fast? Yeah, but that's not Mickey Mouse necessarily to me, 201 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 4: that would be some other term, derogatory term you could 202 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 4: come up with. I suppose, But yeah, that's I guess 203 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,839 Speaker 4: that's I guess you're right. That's one complaint I would say. 204 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 4: But not enough trees. We heard that complaint a little bit, yeah, 205 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 4: a little bit more. Cow said trees are beautiful. I 206 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 4: like trees, and then they are good for the environment, 207 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 4: the trees. You know, Rom said, it's breathtaking now to 208 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 4: be able to look out over the whole property. So 209 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 4: it's like the Truest Championship Truest US Open Championship test. 210 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 4: You can see when you just stand up there at night, 211 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 4: they're putting green and look out. He's like, it's like 212 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 4: breath taking. I'm glad the trees are gone. He did say, 213 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 4: have an interesting one about the trees, like, I think 214 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,680 Speaker 4: it's funny that the founders, you know, plant these trees 215 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 4: and then they come around and they take them out. 216 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 4: They didn't play the founders into it. It was a 217 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 4: like the mid century the founders had it this way. 218 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 4: But he was fine with it. 219 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 2: More. Cow wanted trees because they help, you know, his eyes, 220 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 2: his eyesight, his. 221 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 4: Eye line uh, line up his drives and all that 222 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 4: and shape. So but yeah, there's some tree chowder. But 223 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 4: other than that, it's like they're just not that usual. 224 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 4: I think even at Pinehurst last year, wasn't it like 225 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 4: Wendy Clark on Monday He's like, I mean they've lost it. 226 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 4: They're already on the edge. Didn't he say that on 227 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 4: like Monday? Like here's just like, hey man, as your 228 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 4: forefathers and their forefathers got beat up before you, this 229 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 4: is what it is, and you gotta go take it 230 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 4: on and the usg can kind of absolve itself. It 231 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 4: sounds like they're letting the rough go up well a 232 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 4: little more, you know what phones would say, what's that 233 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 4: a misplayed shot? I revocate irrevocably, irrevocably, irrevocably lost, irrevocably lost. 234 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, uh, it's it's it's awesome. 235 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 4: I can't wait. Everybody's here is playing well more or less. 236 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 4: There's some questions, probably about Rory. Feels like the best 237 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,719 Speaker 4: guys are going to be rewarded and be in it, 238 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 4: and we're primed and ready for like an awesome four 239 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 4: day championship. 240 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 241 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 4: I haven't seen, honestly too much, too many points of 242 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 4: like I don't want to say. You know, it's funny. 243 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 4: JT goes Oakmont's Oakmont. You just got it like it 244 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 4: is what it is, and you know you're gonna get 245 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 4: your ass kicked. He did use the term it's all 246 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 4: right in front of you. 247 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:26,959 Speaker 5: It is. 248 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 4: I had to look up. I was like, I feel 249 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 4: like you said that a lot I found I did 250 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 4: cursory research. He said that about Mayakoba, Valhalla, Quail Hollow, Oakmont. 251 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 2: That's like a favorite phrase of his. It's all right 252 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 2: in front of JT loves to throw the all right. 253 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 2: I mean, actually it isn't. It's like there's a ton 254 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 2: of blind shots. 255 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 4: I think there's some like deceptive like visual trickery here. 256 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 2: I I think I was out on the grounds a 257 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 2: ton today and I think the thing that I, you know, 258 00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 2: just watching at the speeds that they're getting to there 259 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 2: going to be faster come the Thursday through Sunday. But 260 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 2: I think the thing that I was really starting to 261 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 2: hone in on this just nuts is you know, the 262 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 2: modern pro golfer, really the best players in the world. 263 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 2: They hit shots pin high a ton and they miss 264 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 2: right and left, but they hit their numbers and they 265 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 2: miss right and left. At Oakmont, when you're putting across 266 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 2: the green from twenty five feet, if you're pin high, 267 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 2: it's just like generally an insane put because you're either 268 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 2: dealing with like intense back to front slope or front 269 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 2: to back slope, and then there's usually a contour somewhere 270 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 2: in the middle, so you're navigating all this stuff and 271 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 2: it's just like a very unsettling way to play golf 272 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 2: at Oakmont. And I think that's what's probably the most 273 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 2: compelling thing. I Mean, you can talk about a million 274 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 2: things about Oakmont, but I think the thing that I 275 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 2: would gown in on is the greens, and the greens 276 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 2: are spectacular, just like Augusta National. If you kind of 277 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 2: run down your favorite championship courses, they usually have spectacular greens. 278 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 2: But that's what makes this place spectacular. And what these 279 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 2: guys have to figure out is how to give themselves 280 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 2: as many uphill putts as you possibly can in the 281 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 2: course of a round. The green, the slope in the 282 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 2: greens so insane, so you know you're gonna see so 283 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 2: many putts. And you've probably seen so many videos of 284 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 2: people throwing putts that are going downhill. Just as fast 285 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 2: as those things are going downhill, they are that slow 286 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 2: going uphill, which means you can be very aggressive. You 287 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 2: can make aggressive putts. Like on downhill putts you can 288 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 2: barely hit it. It's hard to like get it's just 289 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 2: like can I get it on the right line, and 290 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 2: then the gravity is going to take over from there 291 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 2: and it's that you're not making it. But if you 292 00:15:55,320 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 2: can find a way to kind of get yourself let's 293 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 2: just say ten uphill putts in the course of a 294 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 2: round and you're not putting cross slope or down slope, 295 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 2: you are, that's where you want to be. It's it's 296 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 2: how you play. Oakmont Well is just fine, if you 297 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 2: can find yourself uphill putts and nobody's going to do 298 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 2: it for four straight rounds. But if somebody can do 299 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 2: it a couple rounds, those are the gonna be the 300 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 2: ways you score at Oakmont, And that's I think the 301 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 2: coolest thing about Oakmont. Low scores are available. Shots are achievable. 302 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 2: You could see a low number, but it's really hard 303 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 2: to string together four good scores or three or even 304 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 2: two good scores over the course of four rounds at Oakmont. Yeah, 305 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 2: I think low scores are available. It's just. 306 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 4: It's like it's one out of eighteen holes that kind 307 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 4: of like makes us sixty seven to seventy, right, It's. 308 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 2: Just like it was there for you. But can you 309 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 2: keep it up for five straight hours or four birdies 310 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 2: are super there are I think there's four holes under 311 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 2: four hundred yards. Part four's sounds you hit a ton 312 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 2: of wedges, you hit a ton of short irons. You 313 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 2: obviously have the two par fives, which I think you 314 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 2: can get home depending on the win twelve you definitely 315 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 2: can you have a short Part four seventeen like there 316 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 2: are scoring opportunities. Is not a driver heavy golf course, No, 317 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 2: it's it's an it's a fascinating golf course. I'm like, 318 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 2: cannot wait to watch what type of players come out. 319 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 2: But I'm fairly certain of a couple things. You got 320 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 2: to drive it in the fairway, and you got to 321 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 2: hit smart approach shots, and it's not always like the 322 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 2: closest approach shots. This is where like I'm sure Joseph 323 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 2: could talk more to this later, but strokes gained might 324 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 2: not tell the whole story because I don't think it'll 325 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 2: it interprets like above the pin or in a bad 326 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 2: putting spot as much as it like what you should 327 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 2: be looking at is where they're leaving it. Because you 328 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 2: can get Oakemont so much about stress management this place, 329 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 2: like if you can make it make life easy on yourself, 330 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,399 Speaker 2: you can get around this golf course. 331 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,879 Speaker 4: Where'd you put lag putting in the category? It seems 332 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 4: like as you've talked about. I remember first came here. 333 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 4: I watched Phil lag digited lag drill for an hour, 334 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 4: like on every green he went to. Now it was 335 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 4: a late practice round, so it was like, you know, 336 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 4: five six o'clock at night, like spend an hour on fifteen, 337 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 4: spend an hour on sixteen, just lag lag leg, throw 338 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 4: the cup over the lag leg, over and over and 339 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 4: over again, and you know it's it's it's interesting to me, 340 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 4: like we're going through all the attributes and you know, 341 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:52,880 Speaker 4: maybe not you don't have to hit a ton of drivers. 342 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 4: It's good to be long, like that's not going to 343 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 4: hurt you. Always an advantage to be long. It's maybe 344 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 4: more important to hit the fairway probably, and and there's 345 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 4: just a lot of attributes. And one thing that jumps 346 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 4: to me and you think about whatever an American inland course, 347 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:17,719 Speaker 4: Like the most interesting times on this golf course are 348 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 4: when the ball is on the ground. I think about 349 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 4: maybe not the most, but some of the most interesting times, 350 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 4: many of the most And that just doesn't that doesn't 351 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 4: happen a ton at like American inland golf courses. You 352 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 4: know you hear about it was like you like your podcast. 353 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 4: The historian said he was inspired by those the visit 354 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,639 Speaker 4: Henry Phones was inspired by visits to Great Britain and 355 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 4: all that. When he came back and built the golf course. 356 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 4: It's just you know, I saw Richie Ramsey was tweeting 357 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 4: a Scott himself. He says, it's links inspired. Colin Morricow 358 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 4: has asked, what is this like compared to Mierfield Village. 359 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 4: He's like, well, no, no, no, Like the greens are like 360 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 4: link style, like the ball and for me, whether it's 361 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 4: there's so many holes you can sometimes you need to 362 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 4: land the ball short. I remember the first time I 363 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 4: played here, I birdied one. I was like, oh, what's 364 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 4: the deal, Like, what's you know? I just like scent it. 365 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 4: I hit in the rough. I kind of got it 366 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 4: rolling down. I made a long putt, I birdied one. 367 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 4: I was like, oh, I thought this was I thought 368 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 4: this was hard and it was just so fun to 369 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 4: like roll it down there. You had you got a 370 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 4: video of Zachary Blair, zach Blair today putting it from 371 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 4: one hundred and twenty two. 372 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 2: Yards, got the aggregators, got a new clerk. It just 373 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 2: threw somef there. I felt bad. I felt bad. I 374 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 2: don't know if it feel bad. I had it was 375 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 2: my idea for the for the content. Yeah. Then we 376 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 2: got the drones out there and the guy is telling 377 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 2: me about how sick it's going to be, and I'm like, 378 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 2: you know you just got I'm gonna upload this right 379 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 2: now and it's gonna be up there and it's gonna 380 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 2: go nuts. Zach. Yeah, Zach putted it from uh, he was, 381 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 2: it was amazing. We're going to meet ZB doing What's 382 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 2: in the Bag. They'll probably be out on the on 383 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 2: the Instagram page tomorrow. The lumber in the bag, lots 384 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,160 Speaker 2: of in the bag. It's a it's a provocative bag 385 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 2: set out this week. So we went out to do 386 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 2: the What's in the Bag and uh and and sure 387 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 2: enough then he's jamming us saying we only came out 388 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 2: because he's playing with Bryson. Did not know he was 389 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 2: playing with Bryson ended up in the in the Bryson 390 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,400 Speaker 2: ZB blender for a couple of hours with the boys. 391 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 2: It was it was fun. It was a fun day 392 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 2: out there. 393 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 4: We're gonna get some color hopefully about that loop around 394 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:34,880 Speaker 4: with Bryson. 395 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 2: And he's a preposterous you know yeah Bryson. Yeah, he's 396 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,640 Speaker 2: just you know, he's a showman. He's kind of he's 397 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 2: kind of like if Blocky was actually good. 398 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 4: I mean I think he let's get he's really feeling 399 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 4: himself and for sounds good, he's playing well, but like 400 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 4: I think he just cares less about what people think 401 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 4: about the whole time. Right, of course he wants people 402 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 4: to love him, but like some I think he's just 403 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 4: a little more confident in himself. There's gonna be the 404 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 4: people who are like, oh, your dufist, oh your dork, 405 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 4: Oh you're fake like or like that's that's dorky or 406 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 4: something like. 407 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 2: He just doesn't care. It cares less, I think. 408 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,639 Speaker 4: And where's in the past, maybe five six years he 409 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 4: would be sensitive about that or something. 410 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 2: And so he's like just flying high. And that's great. 411 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 2: I mean, it's great to have him back because it 412 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 2: got a new driver. U got a new driver, just 413 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 2: got in cranked it up four point five loft for 414 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 2: four and a half degree loft. I remember they used 415 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 2: to I don't know if you date all the if 416 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 2: you your golf dates all the way back to the 417 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 2: like the biggest big berth. Yeah, they used to make 418 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 2: that in five five I think, yeah, stock, I mean 419 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 2: that was the spittier ball. But he said the crank, 420 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 2: the new crank that he was testing out today four 421 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 2: and a half degree. Wow. 422 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 4: Someone was Joseph, did he have backpacks of crank driver 423 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,160 Speaker 4: heads on the range. 424 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 2: Thirty or forty heads? Four backpacks of crank heads on 425 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 2: the range, he'd hit like three or four balls. Backpack, 426 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 2: new head comes out. They've just got crank crank heads 427 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 2: all over the four backpacks of crank heads one four 428 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 2: and a half degree. Humorous moment in today's round. Uh 429 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 2: uh around the second tee and bright and waiting for 430 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 2: the green to clear out, and he turns and he goes, hey, 431 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:33,120 Speaker 2: you know, Zack, do you want to go? And Zach's like, yeah, yeah, 432 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 2: I think I could go. H. I guess I'll just 433 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 2: get one out in the fairway for us, just like 434 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 2: just get one placed out. So so we're good, just killing, 435 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 2: just going out. Bricon like it, Yeah, did you take 436 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: all right? Yes? Oh that's good. I mean you're talking 437 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 2: about disparity and like, obviously that's a significant on Bryson 438 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 2: and zb let's just let's put a bow on the course. 439 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 4: Obviously could talk about it. We've done hours of content 440 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 4: on the course. Check out Friday Pot the YouTube video 441 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 4: designing Golf. 442 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 2: We've got so much. I just I'm enamored with it. 443 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,199 Speaker 4: I'm enamored with the like you kind of have to 444 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:18,880 Speaker 4: land your ball short of the green on some shots, 445 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 4: you know, one, ten, twelve, you could I mean, I think. 446 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 2: There's that aspect. There's the rough. 447 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 4: The rough has been, for my estimation, the star of 448 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 4: whatever you want to call it, the content game, the show, 449 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 4: the reaction, and it is significant apparently letting it grow up. 450 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 2: I think they're like sounds like the cut's going up. 451 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 2: The cut is going up. Yeah, the USGA proved a 452 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 2: higher rough cut and there last night doing some different mowing. 453 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 2: I have the details bevel the bevil cut of rough. Yeah. 454 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,360 Speaker 2: When you have really a thick rough, it stands up, 455 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 2: you know, and it creates kind of like a wall. Yep. 456 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 2: So they'll you know, ricochet balls back in on where 457 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 2: the first cut meets the rough cut. So what they're 458 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 2: doing is a like a little like a graduate like 459 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 2: a ramp bebble. Yeah, like if you're trying to get 460 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 2: a ball to roll over a door jam, not on 461 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,120 Speaker 2: the wall. Yeah, something that's a little more. Yeah. So 462 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 2: they have like a cut it's called the bevel cut 463 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 2: that they have instituted. But it's going to get the 464 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 2: balls to just roll into the thick ruff. 465 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 4: They're blowing it, they're raking it. They're just they're they're 466 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 4: you know, walk mowing it. They're doing everything and from 467 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 4: what's intriguing to me is that there's like no qualms, 468 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 4: no apologies, no fear, nothing like, oh yeah, we're just 469 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 4: we're trying to make this hell, and we're gonna make 470 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 4: it harder and harder and harder. 471 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 2: We're purposefully. 472 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 4: If it weren't Oakmont, you'd probably say they're tricking it up. 473 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 5: Yeah. 474 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 4: Absolutely, But Oakmon's kind of allowed to do it based 475 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 4: on their history and lineage and brand and reputation. 476 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 2: I think in terms of championship golf, it's got the 477 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 2: it's got the most, it carries the most weight with 478 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 2: players outside of Augusta National, it's like the most exempt 479 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 2: from people complaining. But I think we're gonna get moaning 480 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 2: this week, do you I mean we're already getting it. 481 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 2: We got a Mickey Mouse. Do you think we'll get 482 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 2: rough moaning in the in the variety of Phil saying 483 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 2: it depends if somebody gets a mic in front of 484 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 2: Phil fertilizer, what's the fertilizer regiment? The Sammy Soisi fertilizer 485 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 2: regiment they got going on here? 486 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 4: Uh Now, now that the the general sort of critique 487 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 4: of rough is that it limits these skills, strategy and skill. Yeah, 488 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 4: skills certainly around the green, and Dottie Scheffler took took 489 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 4: that approach to the you know, echoed that sentiment in 490 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 4: his press conference. It's kind of like you just pop 491 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 4: it on and try to get it close as opposed 492 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 4: to you compared to Augusta, Do I flop? 493 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 2: Do I run? Do you know? Pitch putt? 494 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 4: Whatever it is, at these skills, it does not eliminate skill. 495 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 4: I think that's that's that's sort of the distinction I 496 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 4: would make, because if it eliminated skill, like the best 497 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 4: in the world wouldn't be better at it right there 498 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 4: are that we'd all be on the same playing field essentially, 499 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 4: and so it doesn't eliminate skill. I wouldn't say it 500 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 4: eliminates strategy either. I think what we've heard and maybe 501 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 4: it's not more as much as much as strategic as 502 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 4: you know, short grass or whatever. But I think a 503 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 4: fascinating sort of theme through these first couple of days 504 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 4: is the varying approaches strategy and assessments of how to 505 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 4: confront the rough. And I'm not talking about necessarily around 506 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 4: the green rough. It's you know, is this a different sway? 507 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 4: Am I getting steeper? Am I playing it even more back, 508 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 4: am I am? 509 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 2: I hitting? You know? JT says, you know, it's kind 510 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,120 Speaker 2: of like a five wood. I would prefer a five wood. 511 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 4: If it's anything under a six iron, it's like I'm 512 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 4: toast right, or he prefers the five wood if that's 513 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 4: all he's got. If you've got to go under a 514 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 4: six iron, otherwise you know, uh, you know, it's just 515 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,399 Speaker 4: hack it out. Scott, He's like, is it gonna be 516 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 4: a seven wood week? He say, he talks about this 517 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 4: a tory. Is it a seven wood week? JT had 518 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 4: one great quote. He played with Jackson Coavin on Monday 519 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 4: and he said he had a lie on fifteen today. 520 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 4: They were kind of thinking is it a six iron? 521 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 4: Said you open up a six or could you hit 522 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 4: a seven? So he tried a six iron and it 523 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 4: looked like he could and he hit it like four 524 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 4: feet in front of him. It's not like every time 525 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 4: you hit in the rough, you're grabbing a hitting it out. 526 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 4: You have to think how far can I get this? 527 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 4: So I think there is an element of strategy with 528 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 4: the with the fairway rough, like open a. 529 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 2: Six seven and he picked raw and he hit it 530 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 2: four feet. I don't think there's that much strategy. There's 531 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 2: some chance. There's a lot of chance. It's you look 532 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 2: at the lie and you decide how far you think 533 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 2: you can hit it. That's fair and if you're if 534 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 2: you're smart, what you're doing here is you're just hitting 535 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 2: it to the front of the greens, like the front part, 536 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 2: and just trying to get yourself in a position where 537 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 2: you can make them have a good chance of making 538 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 2: four and no making no worse than bogie. That's what 539 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 2: the game plan is this golf course. I'm just gonna 540 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 2: say it would be way more fascinating with shorter rough. Yeah, 541 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 2: that's that's not it's not even let's let's just put 542 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,479 Speaker 2: it out there totally. There they're they're neutering the interest 543 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 2: in the in the course. But now, like am I opposed, 544 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 2: Like this has kind of been the identity of the 545 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 2: golf course forever, not for a long time, for a 546 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 2: long time. It's it's a lot narrower than it was 547 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 2: originally intended to be when they originally built it. You know, 548 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 2: the rough is the rough's thick. It it reduces shot 549 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,479 Speaker 2: making and what I think you want the best players 550 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 2: in the world to do is hit shots and see 551 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 2: who has the most shots and what we're what we have, 552 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 2: you know, and this is you know, I did a 553 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 2: discussion with the setup crew today and they called it 554 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 2: a true false test. Said, Oakmont's a true false true 555 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 2: false tests and this is this was Scott Langley and like, look, 556 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 2: that's it's that's a test. You know. We were talking 557 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 2: beforehand and I said, and he goes, do you like 558 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 2: true false or short or multiple choice tests more? Because 559 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 2: he's like, that's the way I look at these. And 560 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 2: I said, I like short answer tests the most, you know, 561 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 2: ones where you give people leeway. But I think it's 562 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 2: going to be a fun week with the rough. I think, 563 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 2: like we don't. What I like about the US Open 564 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 2: at this point is that we have a lot of variety. 565 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 2: Next year we go to Shinnacock, where there's tons of 566 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 2: short grass. Oakmont's the thick rough US Open. And that's 567 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 2: great because like every golf course and every every locale 568 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 2: of this championship should have their own identity. There shouldn't 569 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 2: be a homogenization of setup philosophies. And I think that's 570 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 2: what I appreciate the most about the way the USGA 571 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 2: is kind of approaching golf course setup now is that 572 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 2: they are looking at each course and doing unique setups. 573 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 2: And that's the thing I appreciate about the setup. Is 574 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 2: it my favorite? Is it how I would like to 575 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 2: see the golf course set up? Maybe not, but it is. 576 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 2: It is neat because it's OK. This is Oakmont's way 577 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 2: of doing business. To that point, they kind of let 578 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 2: la be la. They narrow it, I know in some spots, 579 00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 2: but they just helped. They didn't do the full blow. 580 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 2: USGA narrow Narraw and Pinehurst. They brought it. They brought 581 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 2: in a little bit tough for top town. I got it. 582 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 2: I got a great Charlie Hoffman's story. You want to 583 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 2: share it now? Or wait? I was talking to somebody, 584 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 2: uh just about you know, pros and stimt meters, and 585 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,479 Speaker 2: they told this great story about working a tournament and 586 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 2: they had they had Charlie Hoffin complaining that the practice 587 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 2: putting green was slower than the greens on the golf course. 588 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 2: And and then forty five minutes later, Brandt Snedeker came 589 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 2: up to him and said, you know, the practice putting 590 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 2: green is faster than the greens on the golf course. 591 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 2: This is a real problem. And he said, well, just 592 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 2: forty five minutes ago, Charlie Hoffman told me the other 593 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 2: at the opposite Yeah, he goes, well, you shouldn't listen 594 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 2: to him. He's worst part than. 595 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 4: Men, as it was whenever in his day was one 596 00:32:59,400 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 4: of the best. 597 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 2: That's how he he top ten at uh recently memorial memorial. Yeah, 598 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 2: the first Yeah, yeah. 599 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 4: I guess my larger point is I don't think the 600 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 4: rough eliminates, eliminates strategy, or eliminates skill altogether. That it's 601 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 4: still there is I don't know that it is totally 602 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 4: true false. I think I think it's just it's honestly 603 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 4: luck that's true. 604 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 2: It's literally that's true. I also I don't like one 605 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 2: of the issues with thick rough is that, like inevitably, 606 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 2: when you hit it in the in the crowd, you're 607 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 2: in a better spot than when you hit a foot 608 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 2: off the fairway. And I'm not saying that it should 609 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 2: always be that way, but like these are the things 610 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 2: that that you open up when like I'd rather miss 611 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 2: in the gallery way offline than miss one foot off 612 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 2: the fairway. Like these are the types of things that 613 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 2: open you open yourself up to a little, little money 614 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 2: out in those galleries this week. You know it is 615 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 2: drying out. But you know, my day, you know, you 616 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 2: had guys saying I was shocked at how soft, like 617 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 2: like we knew it was wet, Still surprised at how 618 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,320 Speaker 2: soft the fairways were. The fairies are still holding a 619 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 2: lot of moisture. 620 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 4: A little bump the greens, you get a little bit 621 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 4: more bounced even by yesterday after doon more today. You know, 622 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 4: so I talk to a member, he's like lamenting that 623 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 4: a three wood stopped on the green and the way 624 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 4: he's not used to. But the greens are common for sure. 625 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 4: The fairways definitely. I think the players were surprised how 626 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 4: soft they were. But that was on Monday. Outside the 627 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 4: trample there is are muddy and gonna just be that way. 628 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 2: There's just gonna be hard pan list Yeah, and like 629 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 2: you get to spin off hardpan. It's pretty predictable, so 630 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 2: you know, there could be some good breaks where like 631 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,919 Speaker 2: somebody just blows or drive right and has a great 632 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 2: shot in one of the things. I you know, the 633 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 2: the fairways are gonna play a little wider if if 634 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,840 Speaker 2: you know, there's some moraine in the forecast, potentially on 635 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 2: the weekend. But because how softener. There's just so much 636 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 2: moisture and the fairways are going to play a little wider, 637 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 2: which I think helps, you know, in terms of like 638 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 2: the the balance with the thick rough having a little 639 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 2: bit more with I think it's achievable to hit ten 640 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 2: to eleven fairaways out here. Yeah, and like that's that's 641 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 2: gonna be another you know, lag putting. But like who's 642 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,240 Speaker 2: hitting ten eleven fairways in around? 643 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,439 Speaker 4: I mean there's a lot of slope to those fairways too, 644 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 4: a lot of slope on the farea and obviously, like 645 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 4: the softness sort of takes a little bit of the 646 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 4: bite out of that. One last rough point is Bryson. 647 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 4: It's not like wing Foot all over again. But I 648 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,839 Speaker 4: was speaking of Ryan Barrath for his equipment. Guy, he's 649 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 4: just like, you know, it's all set up because his 650 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 4: fifty degree wedge is a seven iron length right, and 651 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 4: you know that can be a problem but in some instances, 652 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 4: but for a week like this, it's just more speed, sorry, 653 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 4: steeper swain, more speed. It's fifty degree wedge can kind 654 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 4: of it's going as long as he's got I want 655 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 4: to hit, you know, with the same speed. Of like 656 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 4: a seven iron, or not the same speed, but the 657 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 4: same length of a seven iron. 658 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 2: So it's just increased speed. 659 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,800 Speaker 4: It helps him this week, and you're just talking about 660 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 4: again moving the ball up the field in that's instance, 661 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:14,280 Speaker 4: if he can do it with the fifty degree wedge 662 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 4: the same way you know a slower guy with the 663 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,400 Speaker 4: standard more standard equipment. It's just playing a little bit 664 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 4: more in his hands. And we've seen that like be 665 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 4: an issue for him in a week like this. There 666 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 4: are like equipment choices to make in the bag and 667 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 4: equipment choices to make once you get offline. A lot 668 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 4: of times it might just be hacking out. 669 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, so should we talk about the big names? Sure, 670 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 2: We've talked a lot about the golf course. Yeah, let's 671 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 2: do it. PJ hit it. You're talking about the talking 672 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 2: about the sheriff. 673 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 4: He's coming, not the siren. Please, all right? You don't 674 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 4: you have your soundboard with I don't have. 675 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 2: This is sad relying on the manual. 676 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, Scottie Scheffler is the favorite. 677 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 2: By it by it significant margin, wide margin. 678 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 4: Yeah. Interesting to hear from the players today and yesterday. 679 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 4: It's like, yeah, basically I look at this course and 680 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:20,360 Speaker 4: you know everything we're describing that you need describes Scotty 681 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 4: Scheffler do a te You know, he hits every fairway. 682 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 4: He's really patient, he doesn't get too angry. Xander said, 683 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 4: at the end of the day, takes Scotti Scheffler, He's 684 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,800 Speaker 4: in the middle of every fairway. Takes a serious amount 685 00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 4: of discipline to play away from pins and hit really 686 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 4: good shit shots to save targets. And that's what it 687 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:42,759 Speaker 4: takes well to play at the US Open. Scottie jt 688 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,840 Speaker 4: what is he doing well? Everything? It's effortless. Every single 689 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 4: aspect's unbelievable. And he said, I think his mental game 690 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 4: is better than anybody out here. To be able to 691 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 4: play with those expectations, to start to stay present as 692 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 4: often as he has, to me is maybe more impressive 693 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 4: than even the he's playing. I just think it's so 694 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,399 Speaker 4: hard to do and so hard to explain if you're 695 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 4: in his shoes. He just doesn't make any mistakes. It 696 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 4: almost kind of lets himself, lets himself be in contention 697 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 4: versus forcing himself into contention. 698 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 2: He just plays better. 699 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 4: So you heard over and over and over again today 700 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,239 Speaker 4: like I don't know, like there's a mental thing, there's 701 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:23,839 Speaker 4: a patience thing mental like mental maybe you know, if 702 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 4: it's not as important as physical, it's very close to 703 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:30,359 Speaker 4: a week like this, And so everything they're describing hits 704 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 4: every fairway is also mentally better than everybody else right now. 705 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 4: So yeah, he's the favorite by a significant margin. Is 706 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 4: there a reason a problem area where you're like. 707 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 2: I'm just thinking about this, like what could cause him problems? 708 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 4: A couple of bad breaks in the rough that kind 709 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 4: of put him on the fritz, But now I think 710 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:51,240 Speaker 4: I think it's the greens. 711 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, Listen, like we've seen we've seen him putt really 712 00:38:56,600 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 2: well on PGA tour greens this year. We've seen him 713 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:03,840 Speaker 2: pot well at Quail Hollow, which are PGA Tour greens, 714 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 2: the Masters he's obviously always played well at, and those 715 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 2: are pretty severe greens, but if you get in the 716 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:15,320 Speaker 2: right spots, they're very makeable, very docile. Oakmont, You're looking 717 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,319 Speaker 2: at a lot of whole locations. They're going to be 718 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 2: pushing like three and a half percent slow, And just 719 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 2: to put that in context, that's double more than double 720 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 2: what the PGA Tour likes to pin. So you're gonna 721 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 2: see Potts ripping across holes. I and I always think 722 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 2: like if you are if you've struggled with the putter, 723 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 2: if you're not like fully one hot thousand percent, you know, 724 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:49,720 Speaker 2: irrationally confident with the putter when you get stuff ripping 725 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 2: across the hole, if you miss a couple of them low, 726 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 2: then you might start pushing a couple high. You know, 727 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 2: like you just get in this mindset and I'm just 728 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,400 Speaker 2: trying to think of like ways that that you're really 729 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 2: trying to pick it. I know you are trying to 730 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 2: pick And it's like that's going back to this that's 731 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,839 Speaker 2: to me, like could the Greens cause problems? The other 732 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 2: thing was Scotty. I think he's like one of the 733 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 2: great tacticians in the in the game, and I'm pretty 734 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 2: confident that he's going to have like a good game 735 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,440 Speaker 2: plan of how to wear places that he wants to 736 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 2: get to. But I mean he hits shots pin high, 737 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 2: and like, to me, that's the other question is like 738 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 2: is he gonna have a lot of putts that are 739 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 2: just really hard to make, really hard to leave dead 740 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 2: and he just leaves himself with five five foot cleanups? 741 00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 2: Like that's the thing at Oakmont that's really hard is 742 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:42,239 Speaker 2: if you're not below the hole, you're constantly going to 743 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:46,360 Speaker 2: be leaving yourself four to eight foot clean up putts, 744 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 2: and eventually you're going to miss those, like you cannot 745 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,319 Speaker 2: live and die on those. So that's why you have 746 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 2: to get below the hole. That's like to me, that's 747 00:40:55,239 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 2: the way I see Scotty struggle, like if he's not 748 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 2: really in the mix all weekend. Like the other way 749 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 2: Scotty isn't isn't gonna win is like somebody else plays 750 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 2: great golf, right if yeah, and beats him. But that's 751 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,959 Speaker 2: not necessarily it doesn't seem like that happens very much though. 752 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 2: This is where we're at. 753 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 4: We're trying to like we're trying to figure out what's 754 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 4: like the worst case scenario, what's the how does it 755 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:25,719 Speaker 4: go bad? As opposed to what's the best case or 756 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 4: what's the more likely scenario, what's the likely. 757 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 2: Hej could hit the siren. Now that's the other thing 758 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,880 Speaker 2: that because if he gets if he feels the fair. 759 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 4: Police, I mean it sinks to the bottom on the 760 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 4: rough and he's like, uh might come out, might come out? 761 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,800 Speaker 4: Uh yeah, you know, maybe he gets a lie that 762 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 4: doesn't feel as like, you know, it's it's unlucky or 763 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 4: it's not fair. Yeah, I just you try to think 764 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 4: of like how it goes bad, and it's you know, 765 00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:58,720 Speaker 4: he chips why he's so good around the greeny chips 766 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 4: one that kind of goes flying and that goes flying 767 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 4: much faster thing it. 768 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 2: But what you're talking about is like he becomes these 769 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:09,319 Speaker 2: greens bring out like a little bit of that doubt 770 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 2: from twenty two or whatever. Twenty three. I mean, we 771 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 2: saw we saw it last year at the Open Championship. 772 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 2: We saw him just like y melt down on the green. Yeah, 773 00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,560 Speaker 2: for sure, and like that that was less than a 774 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:23,359 Speaker 2: year ago. So to me, that's like I always just think, 775 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 2: like if you've struggled with putting at some point in 776 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 2: your life, those memories, those pictures, those thoughts are always 777 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 2: in there and things can resurrect those, you know, the events, 778 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 2: And that would be my big, like my fear if 779 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:41,759 Speaker 2: I was if I was betting on Scotti's shuffler. That's 780 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 2: the only like the only thing you could possibly be 781 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 2: worried about. I think, Yeah, yeah, one thing we're not 782 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 2: worried about this week are our feet are dogs not 783 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,720 Speaker 2: barking in the mud and the hills and the terrains 784 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:56,800 Speaker 2: of Pennsylvania.

Obviously been a law 817 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:32,760 Speaker 4: on presence in golf shoes, but also across the board. 818 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 4: We're lucky to have them on board again this week 819 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:40,360 Speaker 4: at the US Open. All right, any more Scotti thoughts? 820 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 4: You want to get out there? 821 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 2: I guess, like, what's what would you what would you put? 822 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 2: Is over under? On this finish? Are we at like 823 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 2: one point five? Are wed? I would say I would 824 00:44:54,200 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 2: say three point five over under? Oh man? Under? I 825 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,239 Speaker 2: mean you're telling me like fourth is bad? I feel 826 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 2: like he finishes four. Him, it's a great it's a 827 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:09,839 Speaker 2: great call, like actually like a common finish for him 828 00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,680 Speaker 2: because he finished fourth at la Cec. Do you finish 829 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,520 Speaker 2: fourth at this year's Masters, Maybe you finished fourth at 830 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 2: the Masters? Finish actually third at la Cec. Yeah, and 831 00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:24,200 Speaker 2: he's it's it's nutty, yeah, kinda. He had a quote 832 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 2: for you today, kind of buttered your bread, little little 833 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 2: angles talk. Who would who would have? Guess? You know, 834 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 2: I don't get interesting golf courses. Angles become important. I 835 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 2: don't really know. 836 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 4: If this is a golf course you can necessarily just 837 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,400 Speaker 4: overpower with kind of a bombing gouge type strategy, especially 838 00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:42,759 Speaker 4: the way the rough is. You have to play the angles. 839 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:45,880 Speaker 4: Some of the greens are elevated, others are pitched extremely 840 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:47,759 Speaker 4: away from you. You gotta play the right side and 841 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:50,799 Speaker 4: play the angles. You have to play the angles. Interesting 842 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:53,959 Speaker 4: from one of the games great players and tacticians. 843 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:57,840 Speaker 2: An interesting quote. Yeah, it's an interesting quote. I was, 844 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:00,719 Speaker 2: you know, Bryson was telling me about like he was like, 845 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:04,440 Speaker 2: you know, you really have to get certain places so 846 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 2: you can get back to these nooks, and you have 847 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 2: to get to a certain place to get to them. 848 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:11,279 Speaker 2: You know, I don't. I don't know. If you know 849 00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 2: what that sounds like? Sounds like angles? 850 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 4: Find it finds interesting. 851 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 2: But you know when you aggregate all the data on 852 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:25,480 Speaker 2: tour on a bunch of shitty golf courses, you know 853 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:32,439 Speaker 2: you might get a different answer. I yeah, is there? 854 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:32,960 Speaker 3: Am I? 855 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 4: Is there an element of the rough the way scottim 856 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:43,400 Speaker 4: illustrates it like the rough and typically with makes angles 857 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 4: more important. 858 00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:49,280 Speaker 2: I think greens are the most important thing to making 859 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:53,440 Speaker 2: angles important green design. If it's just a flat green, 860 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 2: nothing matters. When you have severe tilt like at Oakmont, 861 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,480 Speaker 2: it matters right like. A great example is if you 862 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 2: can get to the left side of the fairaway on ten, 863 00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,920 Speaker 2: that the way that green pitches like it pitches really 864 00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 2: hard away and into the left. So if you get 865 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:15,400 Speaker 2: to the left side of the fairway that that green 866 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 2: pitch is less hard away than when you're on the 867 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:21,160 Speaker 2: right side. It's just a subtle little place that is 868 00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 2: an advantage. And am I going to aim down the 869 00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:26,719 Speaker 2: left edge of the fairway? No, I'm not aiming down 870 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,439 Speaker 2: the left edge of the fairway. No, But if I can, 871 00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:32,240 Speaker 2: if I, if I can get one of those two places, 872 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,279 Speaker 2: I want to be on the left side, and if 873 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 2: I'm on the left side, I know I'm in a 874 00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,480 Speaker 2: good spot and maybe that helps me on the approach shot, 875 00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 2: Versus if I'm on the right side, I have to 876 00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 2: be a little bit more careful with my second shot. 877 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 2: This is not this is how the how the angles 878 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:51,520 Speaker 2: work at the highest level. Right, it is understanding like 879 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 2: it just can notch up your aggression level on the 880 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:56,800 Speaker 2: appro chet just to touch right if you're on the 881 00:47:56,840 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 2: right spot versus the wrong spot, and a golf course 882 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 2: like Oakmont, that's gonna be how you generate a couple 883 00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,439 Speaker 2: more birdy chances over seventy two holes. Is it being 884 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 2: in the right position? Yeah, And it's not saying you're 885 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:15,680 Speaker 2: aiming there, no, specifically, but it's also knowing when you're 886 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,399 Speaker 2: in the right position and you can you can then 887 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:21,640 Speaker 2: take that target a little bit more aggressive or shade 888 00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 2: it a little bit more one way because you know 889 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:26,399 Speaker 2: that that slope is going to bring it back. Does 890 00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:29,239 Speaker 2: that make sense? It does it? Does it? It would 891 00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:32,040 Speaker 2: have to be like someone though not understanding they are 892 00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 2: in the right position. Yes, not everyone does. Not everyone 893 00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:38,919 Speaker 2: gets that. It's just he's talking about rough taking driver 894 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:41,880 Speaker 2: out of your hands more often, I think, Like, I 895 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 2: think that's one of the things that's interesting about is 896 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 2: like decision variability off the tee. Yeah, Like it's not 897 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:50,919 Speaker 2: as much right left, like trying to favor a side 898 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:53,920 Speaker 2: favor this way, but it is like am I going 899 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 2: to hit a faraway wooden iron a driver? Like? Because 900 00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:01,920 Speaker 2: finding faraways like the number one thing you have to do. Yep. 901 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,800 Speaker 4: Let's move on to Bryson. He is the second favorite 902 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:09,240 Speaker 4: on the odds boards. He's pasted Rory. I think Ram 903 00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:11,480 Speaker 4: has passed Roy or he's even with Rory at this moment. 904 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,360 Speaker 4: Bryson We've talked about quite a bit here this evening. 905 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:21,839 Speaker 4: Is there anything that gives you alarm with Bryson? There's 906 00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 4: really nothing in the same way that with Scotty, Like, 907 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,360 Speaker 4: of course you can see a way that it goes bad. 908 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:31,239 Speaker 4: I think, you know, there's an element of this championship 909 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:35,040 Speaker 4: if you start on one and then one, two, three, 910 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:38,720 Speaker 4: there's like an element of this. I know you can't 911 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:42,719 Speaker 4: like you can't win it on Thursday morning, or you 912 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,200 Speaker 4: can't win it at the start of round, but there's 913 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:48,279 Speaker 4: an element of something like getting really bad. You can 914 00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:51,800 Speaker 4: get one, two and three those greens, if there's a 915 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:54,040 Speaker 4: little bit of wind where all of a sudden you 916 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:58,279 Speaker 4: are whatever four over through your first three even if 917 00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:00,799 Speaker 4: you're Bryson and playing well, and it's just like you're 918 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 4: kind of like punch drunk within the first forty five minutes. 919 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,880 Speaker 4: But you know, that's what Oakmont can kind of do, 920 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,839 Speaker 4: is like you consider like where things can go bad 921 00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 4: before you think about necessarily how it's gonna fly high. 922 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,640 Speaker 2: I do think that, Like that's one thing with Scotty 923 00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:20,239 Speaker 2: we didn't talk about. Yeah, it's like Oakmont, you are 924 00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:25,240 Speaker 2: like one short momentary lapse of concentration away from being 925 00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:30,440 Speaker 2: plus five because it can just unravel really quickly, kind 926 00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:34,000 Speaker 2: of like what happened to Nelly Korda at Lancaster last year. Now, 927 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 2: I'm not saying like as dramatically no, but like you 928 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,800 Speaker 2: can just like blink, don't blink. Good advice for Bryson, 929 00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:46,680 Speaker 2: don't blink, and like you can you can be just 930 00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:49,200 Speaker 2: completely out of position. I wanted to look this up. 931 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:53,640 Speaker 2: I'm very sad. I'm sad at the uh the pettiness 932 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:59,400 Speaker 2: of this brightoned PGA tour profile has been deleted. Really 933 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:04,359 Speaker 2: it appears so so I can't I can't go back 934 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:08,919 Speaker 2: to look at his like ball speed average in twenty eighteen. Unfortunately, 935 00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:12,480 Speaker 2: we can probably find it in the tracker maybe maybe maybe, 936 00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,520 Speaker 2: but just on you know, oh, I think actually, never mind, 937 00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:17,560 Speaker 2: I found it good. Yeah, I got it. It was 938 00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:22,040 Speaker 2: a little buried. But anyways, I think, like, what's interesting 939 00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 2: about Bryson and why he's become so reliable is that 940 00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:30,320 Speaker 2: he was, like a word, he was a world class 941 00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:34,600 Speaker 2: player when he had let's just call it one seventy 942 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:39,200 Speaker 2: ball speed. He was a world class player, a great 943 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:43,120 Speaker 2: player at one seventy ball speed. And when you think 944 00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:46,520 Speaker 2: about like the other skills you need to be a 945 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:50,239 Speaker 2: world class player at one seventy ball speed, you get 946 00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 2: like you have different intangibles that you develop. It's kind 947 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:56,040 Speaker 2: of like the Anthony Davis where you know he was 948 00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 2: a point guard and then he grew a ton and 949 00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 2: it was like, oh, he's got all these ball skills 950 00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:07,960 Speaker 2: because he played point guard into high school. And with Bryson, 951 00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:12,919 Speaker 2: the way he evolved that those playing golf the other 952 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:18,160 Speaker 2: way has it makes him just like a natural, naturally 953 00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:21,800 Speaker 2: great golfer with that speed. We see so many guys 954 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:24,840 Speaker 2: with his speed that don't have the other skills because 955 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 2: golf has never asked them to have the skills. Like 956 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,680 Speaker 2: the speed alone is enough. Like if you wanted to 957 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:35,320 Speaker 2: look at Minwooly not to throw shots, but like Minwooly 958 00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:38,319 Speaker 2: has that speed, but he doesn't have all the other 959 00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:41,880 Speaker 2: fastest of the game because he's always been fast. Yeah, Bryson, 960 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:46,040 Speaker 2: And that's I think the thing that is so why 961 00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 2: Bryson has become such a strong Major championship player with 962 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:53,839 Speaker 2: the speed is that he's refined in back to that 963 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:57,720 Speaker 2: like really golf centric. I like that than the squirrel. 964 00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:03,440 Speaker 2: We got a little school or squirrel here. But he's 965 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 2: refined the game back and that started really at Oak Hill. 966 00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 2: And since he's back to focusing on being a golfer. Yeah, 967 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:16,719 Speaker 2: he's just this guy that has like all these qualities 968 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:20,200 Speaker 2: that a lower speed player has, like just a knack 969 00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:23,880 Speaker 2: for getting the ball in the hole at high speeds, 970 00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:28,920 Speaker 2: and it makes him just a relentlessly good Major championship player. 971 00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 4: When you do it over and over again, it's not 972 00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:33,080 Speaker 4: like it's not luck when it had been. We saw 973 00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:36,080 Speaker 4: it last week at Virginia. He chipped in twice when 974 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 4: he needed it. That the three birdies laid on Saturday 975 00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:41,200 Speaker 4: at the Masters bombing, and they like he just does 976 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:43,880 Speaker 4: it over and over again, and so we kind of 977 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,839 Speaker 4: associate like speed and power. He's probably the best driver 978 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,040 Speaker 4: in the world right now. With Rory doing with trying 979 00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:50,880 Speaker 4: to figure out his driver situation. 980 00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 2: Might haven't figured out. He went back to the old 981 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:57,680 Speaker 2: tough week for Tailor Bade.

And 987 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,160 Speaker 2: if your tailor made like it's going to be a 988 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:18,280 Speaker 2: Tailor Bade driver, so wouldn't we wouldn't you make content 989 00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:20,360 Speaker 2: about like what the driver's going to be. But because 990 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:22,560 Speaker 2: it's the old driver and not the new driver they're 991 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:26,000 Speaker 2: selling for however much it is, they they lay away 992 00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:28,200 Speaker 2: from it.

It's like 995 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:37,840 Speaker 2: when was the last time like a club or a 996 00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,120 Speaker 2: piece I guess a club was like this much as 997 00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:43,160 Speaker 2: subject or the story of this high profile player. It 998 00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:47,400 Speaker 2: had to be probably a putter, a tiger, a tiger club, 999 00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:50,200 Speaker 2: a tiger driver or a putter. But it's been a 1000 00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:55,120 Speaker 2: while since, like, ah, singular club. What about the crank driver? Well, 1001 00:54:55,880 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 2: I mean in last year the bulge and roll irons. Yeah.

To at least 1004 00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:08,520 Speaker 4: he's talking about how his his team is.

Now he's talking about 1006 00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:16,320 Speaker 4: he didn't I would say he hesitated for a long time. 1007 00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:19,560 Speaker 4: When he was asked about his contract with Live, he goes, yeah, 1008 00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:20,480 Speaker 4: how do I phrase this? 1009 00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:23,839 Speaker 2: Uh?

Uh talked about his sponsors and revenue. 1014 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:35,200 Speaker 2: What did he say? 1015 00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:40,560 Speaker 4: Uh talked about the crushers. Revenue is all sorts of 1016 00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:44,520 Speaker 4: revenue coming in. So there wasn't like not to say 1017 00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:47,239 Speaker 4: he's not comfortable or he's not focused. That's just where 1018 00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:52,680 Speaker 4: the where the conversation went. He seems extremely well suited. 1019 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:57,640 Speaker 2: He's very very sis the game. The game looked good today. Yeah, 1020 00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:00,279 Speaker 2: the golf course is just like a good fit for him. Yep, 1021 00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:04,960 Speaker 2: it's yep. I I he's my one and done pick. 1022 00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:09,839 Speaker 2: You've been I've taken Scheffler and Rory already and and 1023 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:12,480 Speaker 2: so like I've got kind of Bryson slated for this 1024 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 2: week and rom slated for the Open. Yeah, but yeah, 1025 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:19,600 Speaker 2: I'm taking Bryson. I feel really good about it. I think, like, 1026 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,520 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's a one A one B situation, 1027 00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:26,160 Speaker 2: but I think he's He's clearly too the odd say it, 1028 00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:28,239 Speaker 2: but I would put him up there one A, one B. 1029 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,800 Speaker 2: I think winning Scotty winning back to back mature so hard. 1030 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:34,439 Speaker 2: You know, Rory talks about it at length. We're probably 1031 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 2: gonna talk about his press conference like the but like 1032 00:56:37,239 --> 00:56:40,080 Speaker 2: Scotty's kind of different. It seems like with the way, 1033 00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:47,640 Speaker 2: you know one memorial, like I mean, yeah, well we'll 1034 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 2: talk about yeah, Rory. I also think like there are 1035 00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:52,799 Speaker 2: at completely different stages of their life, and that's like 1036 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:55,280 Speaker 2: an important context here. There was there was ten years 1037 00:56:55,280 --> 00:57:00,000 Speaker 2: of like, yeah, agony, ten years of agony, like different points, 1038 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:08,719 Speaker 2: like Scotty's still ascending, you know, like Rory's thirty five maybe, yeah, 1039 00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:11,000 Speaker 2: I'm not sure that's I think it's thirty five. Scotty's 1040 00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:15,279 Speaker 2: twenty eight. Yeah, you know, like they're diametrically in different positions. 1041 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:18,160 Speaker 2: But that was an interesting you know, it's it's an 1042 00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 2: interesting comment, and like you wonder, Like something I wondered 1043 00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:26,640 Speaker 2: is like if he had won the Masters a while ago, 1044 00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:31,439 Speaker 2: would he still be this good Rory? You know? Has 1045 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:34,440 Speaker 2: that been the thing that's been driving him to be 1046 00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:38,560 Speaker 2: to have this long career that has has got has 1047 00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:41,480 Speaker 2: become such a big talking. 1048 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:45,040 Speaker 4: Point of his career. I don't I'm not suggesting this 1049 00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:48,120 Speaker 4: is the way it's going to go. But like in 1050 00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 4: a similar chase in Years of Agony, when Sergio finally 1051 00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,720 Speaker 4: won the Masters and he fell to his knees and screamed, 1052 00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:56,640 Speaker 4: I'm not saying this is how it's gonna. 1053 00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:59,120 Speaker 2: Go to Rory. Do you think Sergio and Rory are No, 1054 00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:00,120 Speaker 2: not at all. 1055 00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:03,959 Speaker 4: But it's it's the dynamic of like going and trying 1056 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 4: to achieve almost a singular thing for a long time 1057 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:09,880 Speaker 4: in doing it that is different than like Scotty, I 1058 00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:12,640 Speaker 4: just one memorial head down at home, I'm this way 1059 00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 4: and head down onto the next. When I get to 1060 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:16,880 Speaker 4: the golf course and this way, Like it's a different 1061 00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,920 Speaker 4: totally different dynamic. And I'm not saying Rory's gonna go 1062 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:22,640 Speaker 4: into Sergio Modes disappear for two years or three years 1063 00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 4: or whatever on Sergio disappeared for and I would say 1064 00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:29,000 Speaker 4: Sergio was justified and understood. 1065 00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:33,560 Speaker 2: Rory's dealing with the driver. He's back to q I ten. 1066 00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:39,320 Speaker 2: I found he was. He seemed fine, seemed good spirits, 1067 00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:41,680 Speaker 2: wasn't nothing going on. I found like I think he's 1068 00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:45,880 Speaker 2: like happy, Yeah, he's like I you know, it's great 1069 00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:50,160 Speaker 2: to like do more traveling. I've loved I've achieved a dream. 1070 00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:52,360 Speaker 2: I was gonna do more travel this year. 1071 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 4: Anyways, now I feel even better about it and doing 1072 00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:59,760 Speaker 4: hobbies and love myself, love the golf.

But I will say for players like 1143 01:02:43,880 --> 01:02:48,560 Speaker 2: Rory that are so close to from playing really great golf, 1144 01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:54,120 Speaker 2: you you are literally like a swing a swing away 1145 01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:59,000 Speaker 2: from having everything lock back in finding a great feel 1146 01:02:59,760 --> 01:03:04,480 Speaker 2: and going and being right back there. And so you know, 1147 01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:06,960 Speaker 2: this is the thing. If that driver starts to feel good, 1148 01:03:08,040 --> 01:03:10,360 Speaker 2: everything else is going to work a lot better than 1149 01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:12,480 Speaker 2: the way he's played the last few weeks, where the 1150 01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:15,840 Speaker 2: driver's just been like bad. Yeah, And I think this 1151 01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:16,800 Speaker 2: ship matters to him. 1152 01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:19,760 Speaker 4: I think he's really proud of like finishing top ten, 1153 01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:22,760 Speaker 4: top five at all these US Opens, at all these 1154 01:03:22,760 --> 01:03:25,320 Speaker 4: great golf courses, Like it does matter to him a 1155 01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:28,880 Speaker 4: lot now, maybe like not as burning hot as it 1156 01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:31,680 Speaker 4: did before he had a master's in career Slam, but 1157 01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:34,200 Speaker 4: I think it really matters to him to keep posting 1158 01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:39,640 Speaker 4: these basically proving like I can navigate the hardest course 1159 01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:42,640 Speaker 4: is the biggest tests of skill better than anyone else 1160 01:03:42,680 --> 01:03:44,080 Speaker 4: probably or as consistently. 1161 01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:46,480 Speaker 2: I mean, this is this is the thing. If you're 1162 01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:50,160 Speaker 2: if you're talking Rory at the end end of last 1163 01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:56,320 Speaker 2: year at at Pinehurst. You know, Rory at the Masters, 1164 01:03:56,400 --> 01:03:59,440 Speaker 2: Rory at the Players this year, like you look at 1165 01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:01,760 Speaker 2: this week and be like god, like this is perfect 1166 01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:03,800 Speaker 2: for him, Like he's really figured out how to play 1167 01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:07,960 Speaker 2: hard golf courses. Statistically, him and Xander have been the 1168 01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:10,960 Speaker 2: two best US Open players over like the last like 1169 01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 2: six years. Yeah, it's like clear in a way, and 1170 01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:17,680 Speaker 2: this golf course like has a lot of qualities of like, 1171 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:20,720 Speaker 2: you know, just like thinking the way around the golf. 1172 01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:22,320 Speaker 2: I think like one of the things that Rory has 1173 01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:25,840 Speaker 2: become really good at is just like understanding how to 1174 01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:28,600 Speaker 2: play golf at different golf courses, you know, where like 1175 01:04:28,680 --> 01:04:31,680 Speaker 2: he understands like where he should hit shots to have 1176 01:04:31,760 --> 01:04:34,760 Speaker 2: him feed in and and but you know, it's it's 1177 01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:36,920 Speaker 2: just the last six weeks that have put you in 1178 01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:39,640 Speaker 2: this spot where you don't feel good good about him. 1179 01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:42,800 Speaker 2: I think it's it's it's a it's a I'd say 1180 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:46,640 Speaker 2: it's probably the most interesting early week storyline, early round 1181 01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:50,400 Speaker 2: storyline is what Rory McElroy do we see? Yeah, And 1182 01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:52,959 Speaker 2: I think it's fair to like he's he's the notch 1183 01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:55,520 Speaker 2: below Bryce and Scottie. At the start of this week, 1184 01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:59,840 Speaker 2: you're not feeling as comfortable or bullish on him as 1185 01:04:59,880 --> 01:05:02,919 Speaker 2: you Well, is it possible because of how he played? Yeah? 1186 01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:03,240 Speaker 2: You know. 1187 01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:05,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, now you talked about his last six weeks, Can 1188 01:05:05,960 --> 01:05:08,120 Speaker 4: I talk about our next six weeks?

It'll be a supreme test 1286 01:10:22,040 --> 01:10:25,680 Speaker 4: of his patients. And he's so good that usually he's 1287 01:10:25,680 --> 01:10:27,880 Speaker 4: the guy and the guy who can be lose his 1288 01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:31,519 Speaker 4: head for thirty minutes and still figure out a way 1289 01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:35,439 Speaker 4: to shoot sixty eight or keep it at seventy.

The small fields matter. 1294 01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:49,720 Speaker 4: Some of these would be top thirties. They wouldn't be 1295 01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:52,360 Speaker 4: top tens. It doesn't mean I'm not playing good golf. 1296 01:10:52,400 --> 01:10:54,920 Speaker 4: I'm playing great golf, but yeah, I'll be realistic. So 1297 01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:55,880 Speaker 4: I did appreciate that. 1298 01:10:56,160 --> 01:11:02,000 Speaker 2: Ready for his US Open record since twenty nineteen, give 1299 01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:05,240 Speaker 2: it to me.

Do you think the Legions thirteen? 1317 01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:05,400 Speaker 4: I don't know, but I think you know, the PJA 1318 01:12:05,560 --> 01:12:08,000 Speaker 4: was like a really good reminder of how much he 1319 01:12:08,040 --> 01:12:10,040 Speaker 4: loves getting in the fight. 1320 01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:12,360 Speaker 2: He got to do a walk and talk.

Oh yeah, that is a great story. 1386 01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:32,760 Speaker 2: I'm paraphrasing this at this point. It's been so long 1387 01:15:32,840 --> 01:15:37,640 Speaker 2: since somebody told me. He just kept playing Oakmont. So 1388 01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:40,519 Speaker 2: he finished. I think he finished runner up in the 1389 01:15:40,600 --> 01:15:43,160 Speaker 2: us AM or or he was the champ, or he 1390 01:15:43,280 --> 01:15:47,479 Speaker 2: won the USAM. He might have won the USAM at Oakmont. 1391 01:15:47,520 --> 01:15:49,840 Speaker 2: And he would call Bob Ford every once in a while, 1392 01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:52,400 Speaker 2: like every year and bringing out some buddies to Oakmont 1393 01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:58,000 Speaker 2: and uh, he pay his bill. And then he didn't 1394 01:15:58,160 --> 01:16:01,599 Speaker 2: go for a couple of years and Bob Bob Ford 1395 01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:03,600 Speaker 2: called him one year. I was like, how are you 1396 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:06,840 Speaker 2: doing all right? You know, it's everything all right? He 1397 01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:09,960 Speaker 2: was like yeah, yeah, And then I think he went back. 1398 01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:11,920 Speaker 2: And then he went. Another couple of years go by, 1399 01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:14,880 Speaker 2: he didn't show up, and Bob called him again. It 1400 01:16:14,920 --> 01:16:18,240 Speaker 2: was like, is everything okay? You know, his life okay? 1401 01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:21,200 Speaker 2: And he was like he's confused.

Then 1407 01:16:39,560 --> 01:16:42,760 Speaker 2: who's that former high flyer star change? 1408 01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:46,920 Speaker 4: Sure, sure, that's yeah maybe the Yeah he was an 1409 01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:49,599 Speaker 4: honorary remember should we bring in?

He's the forty second ranked player in the world, 1459 01:19:38,880 --> 01:19:40,880 Speaker 2: and his one top ten was like a T ten. 1460 01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:44,160 Speaker 2: He hasn't been competitive in a major since Belle Reef. 1461 01:19:46,120 --> 01:19:49,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, yeah, well that was the day he's 1462 01:19:49,560 --> 01:19:55,040 Speaker 4: carrying two putters, right, Yes, I mean he's good looking, 1463 01:19:55,160 --> 01:19:56,280 Speaker 4: he was at the top of the game for a 1464 01:19:56,320 --> 01:19:58,880 Speaker 4: long time. He's won of Masters. He just keeps getting 1465 01:19:58,880 --> 01:20:04,639 Speaker 4: thrown in there.

Yeah? Sure. Least interesting hole at Oakmont, 1473 01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:39,040 Speaker 2: Like mark it down, Yeah, snooze fest. It's gonna be 1474 01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:42,000 Speaker 2: a parade of threes and fours. It's all threes and fours, 1475 01:20:42,240 --> 01:20:46,800 Speaker 2: no variability, It's all threes and four. It is. I 1476 01:20:46,800 --> 01:20:50,880 Speaker 2: I'll say this personal anecdote. I think, like at the 1477 01:20:50,920 --> 01:20:54,040 Speaker 2: Oakmont preview day, I hit the worst shot I hit 1478 01:20:54,160 --> 01:20:56,080 Speaker 2: all day, and I hit a lot of bad shots, 1479 01:20:56,320 --> 01:21:00,639 Speaker 2: making four or three. I lipped out for three because 1480 01:21:00,840 --> 01:21:04,920 Speaker 2: I like wiped it almost onto the highway, but then 1481 01:21:05,000 --> 01:21:07,599 Speaker 2: I was I was fifty yards away. But the green 1482 01:21:07,640 --> 01:21:11,479 Speaker 2: t huge is docile as flat screen flat. It's very 1483 01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:15,240 Speaker 2: this thing. This thing is insane. How much coverage it's getting. 1484 01:21:15,320 --> 01:21:17,439 Speaker 4: It's the signposts they put on the tee that says 1485 01:21:17,439 --> 01:21:19,040 Speaker 4: two eighty nine and all this stuff. 1486 01:21:19,120 --> 01:21:23,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, honestly, worst hole at Oakmont. They're not going it 1487 01:21:23,760 --> 01:21:26,640 Speaker 2: not because it's a long part three, because it's the 1488 01:21:26,680 --> 01:21:31,479 Speaker 2: least interesting. If you're gonna watch like every other hole, 1489 01:21:32,720 --> 01:21:35,920 Speaker 2: anything can happen. That's the beauty of this golf course. 1490 01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:39,280 Speaker 2: It is the breather. It is the breather hole at Oakmont. 1491 01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:43,600 Speaker 4: They're calling that out. I mean Markow said, there's no 1492 01:21:43,640 --> 01:21:46,360 Speaker 4: strategy at all. Yeah, he said, it's a driver or 1493 01:21:46,400 --> 01:21:48,800 Speaker 4: a three wood. You're trying to put it within fifteen yards, 1494 01:21:48,880 --> 01:21:51,120 Speaker 4: get up and down or knocket up and down, make 1495 01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:54,280 Speaker 4: a four. John Wood said, there's nowhere like the caddy said, 1496 01:21:54,280 --> 01:21:57,280 Speaker 4: there's no trouble. You can't make an actual mess like 1497 01:21:57,479 --> 01:21:58,880 Speaker 4: you just send it up there. 1498 01:21:59,200 --> 01:22:00,439 Speaker 2: There's not a lot of I. 1499 01:22:00,360 --> 01:22:02,280 Speaker 4: Guess if you're no Kent, you're in your three iron, 1500 01:22:02,320 --> 01:22:04,880 Speaker 4: your custom three iron. But it's it just got is 1501 01:22:04,880 --> 01:22:08,160 Speaker 4: like the choices driver three would and try to get 1502 01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:11,200 Speaker 4: within fifteen yards and get up and down. 1503 01:22:11,320 --> 01:22:13,760 Speaker 2: So yeah, you're right, I mean it is. 1504 01:22:14,439 --> 01:22:17,400 Speaker 4: It's pretty evident and kind of everybody's calling that out 1505 01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:20,120 Speaker 4: and hopefully we'll break through to the mass hollering about 1506 01:22:20,160 --> 01:22:27,360 Speaker 4: the yardage. The simple yardage so not interesting. Uh yeah, 1507 01:22:27,400 --> 01:22:31,120 Speaker 4: So Noah Kent, thirsty boy.

I did call him Cam in the interview. 1792 01:38:43,120 --> 01:38:45,760 Speaker 3: I've thought about it every minute since uh so, uh 1793 01:38:45,960 --> 01:38:48,080 Speaker 3: the New York Golf Club put up on Instagram. 1794 01:38:48,120 --> 01:38:49,519 Speaker 2: Does he get mad when you call him Cam? 1795 01:38:49,680 --> 01:38:54,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, he prefers Cameron immediately. Hi, Cam, No, I said 1796 01:38:54,520 --> 01:38:57,200 Speaker 3: Cameron first, and then I said Cam upon second. 1797 01:38:57,240 --> 01:39:01,320 Speaker 2: Works Tom tough, as sports agent says, they don't really 1798 01:39:01,400 --> 01:39:02,280 Speaker 2: match up with you. 1799 01:39:02,320 --> 01:39:04,679 Speaker 3: So I assumed Yankees because he grew up in the Bronx. 1800 01:39:04,800 --> 01:39:08,040 Speaker 3: Yankees Jets is pretty rare. It's pretty pretty pretty rare. 1801 01:39:08,320 --> 01:39:10,960 Speaker 3: But he did say Rangers first, which if you're saying 1802 01:39:11,120 --> 01:39:14,439 Speaker 3: Rangers first over like Yankees, you're like a hockey die hard. 1803 01:39:14,720 --> 01:39:16,439 Speaker 3: If it was actually ten minutes, I would have gone 1804 01:39:16,479 --> 01:39:17,479 Speaker 3: pretty deep on Rangers. 1805 01:39:17,479 --> 01:39:19,040 Speaker 2: I feel like you think he might have been a 1806 01:39:19,080 --> 01:39:21,599 Speaker 2: little grumpy because he was up late watching the watching 1807 01:39:21,680 --> 01:39:22,599 Speaker 2: the game last night. 1808 01:39:22,840 --> 01:39:24,719 Speaker 3: Piece.

I don't know if 1810 01:39:27,120 --> 01:39:30,560 Speaker 3: I mean Panthers beat my conference finals last year. I 1811 01:39:30,600 --> 01:39:32,720 Speaker 3: don't like the Panthers. He shouldn't like the Panthers. 1812 01:39:32,720 --> 01:39:35,680 Speaker 2: Maybe for the scouting potential Rangers. 1813 01:39:35,400 --> 01:39:39,080 Speaker 3: Sign Rangers suck. What was I saying? Oh, New York 1814 01:39:39,080 --> 01:39:41,080 Speaker 3: Golf Club is giving away tickets to the travelers on 1815 01:39:41,160 --> 01:39:45,479 Speaker 3: Instagram and they're they're promoting you can see you can 1816 01:39:45,520 --> 01:39:48,960 Speaker 3: see New York Golf Club stars Matthew Fitzpatrick and Ricky 1817 01:39:48,960 --> 01:39:51,680 Speaker 3: Faller at the Travelers And I literally commented Cam Young 1818 01:39:51,680 --> 01:39:53,799 Speaker 3: shot of fifty nine at this event last year, Yeah, 1819 01:39:53,840 --> 01:39:55,760 Speaker 3: like what are we what are we doing?

One thing I thought was 1822 01:40:00,760 --> 01:40:06,880 Speaker 5: cool today what seventeen drivable Part four? Yeah, watched a 1823 01:40:06,920 --> 01:40:12,120 Speaker 5: couple groups go through there, including two like very smart strategists. 1824 01:40:12,360 --> 01:40:15,599 Speaker 5: And after they hit their t shots there when the greens, 1825 01:40:15,600 --> 01:40:17,400 Speaker 5: both of them were in the green side bunker right, 1826 01:40:17,800 --> 01:40:22,280 Speaker 5: had very difficult bunker shots like green running away from them. 1827 01:40:22,280 --> 01:40:24,479 Speaker 5: And afterwards they hit a bunch of shots from the 1828 01:40:24,479 --> 01:40:27,920 Speaker 5: fescue over on the left and like that was that 1829 01:40:28,000 --> 01:40:30,720 Speaker 5: was their conclusion, Like would way rather be in the 1830 01:40:30,760 --> 01:40:33,800 Speaker 5: fescue down the left, not the rough, like the thick, 1831 01:40:34,040 --> 01:40:35,400 Speaker 5: thick fescue. 1832 01:40:34,920 --> 01:40:37,960 Speaker 2: You think they're trying to out just taking repeated swipes 1833 01:40:38,000 --> 01:40:42,160 Speaker 2: through it like that. I like, but I do think 1834 01:40:42,160 --> 01:40:45,200 Speaker 2: that that's something you're going to see, that that left 1835 01:40:45,240 --> 01:40:47,280 Speaker 2: side is going to see a lot of action. Also 1836 01:40:47,400 --> 01:40:49,920 Speaker 2: that uh, if that wind, if we get that kind 1837 01:40:49,960 --> 01:40:52,880 Speaker 2: of that wind.

This 2129 01:56:05,240 --> 01:56:08,000 Speaker 2: is a big Cory Connors week. I think I'm taking 2130 01:56:08,040 --> 01:56:10,400 Speaker 2: Corey Connors. I actually think Corey Connors has a chance 2131 01:56:10,400 --> 01:56:12,920 Speaker 2: to win the golf tournament. I hate the way I 2132 01:56:13,000 --> 01:56:13,680 Speaker 2: just phrased that. 2133 01:56:14,200 --> 01:56:16,880 Speaker 5: I hate the way I just phrased that because it 2134 01:56:16,920 --> 01:56:20,160 Speaker 5: implies that Cam Young doesn't that is exactly. But I 2135 01:56:20,160 --> 01:56:23,720 Speaker 5: think realistically Cory Connors has has higher expectations this week. 2136 01:56:23,760 --> 01:56:27,560 Speaker 5: I like Cam Young this week obviously, Obviously I have 2137 01:56:27,600 --> 01:56:30,879 Speaker 5: a pulse, so I believe that. But I'm taking Cory Connors. 2138 01:56:31,120 --> 01:56:34,280 Speaker 3: It's like the Jeff Brown XFL Do I do I 2139 01:56:34,480 --> 01:56:38,200 Speaker 3: or do I not currently have a pulse taking?

You called them a bubble bay before. 2152 01:57:15,440 --> 01:57:18,840 Speaker 3: I think Ben Griffin might be inside the bubble right now. 2153 01:57:19,000 --> 01:57:21,720 Speaker 3: I think there's there's some there's some there's some room 2154 01:57:21,720 --> 01:57:23,880 Speaker 3: between Ben Griffin and the bubble right now, and I 2155 01:57:23,880 --> 01:57:25,840 Speaker 3: think Novak is going to close that gap. 2156 01:57:26,320 --> 01:57:30,560 Speaker 5: I'm taking Andrew Novak. He's what, He's got some great 2157 01:57:30,600 --> 01:57:34,000 Speaker 5: short game besides the Memorial.
