Speaker 1: Now, the Shotgun Starting Golf is full of mathematics. There's
Speaker 1: a lot of setup work that we have to do
Speaker 1: in order to make a tournament work. So I'm going
Speaker 1: to demonstrate to you just exactly how we do a
Speaker 1: Shotgun Start here and where we.
Speaker 2: Alright, alright, alright, did no man?
Speaker 3: Darn your.
Speaker 2: Greetings and welcome to another edition of the Shotgun Start.
Speaker 2: Today is Wednesday, April twenty second.
Speaker 4: Shape. How are you doing?
Speaker 2: Andy?
Speaker 5: I wonder how many people turn the pod off right now,
Speaker 5: like they're like, no, Brendan, Andy's got to do the
Speaker 5: intro done. Nope, We'll skip to Friday. I wonder what
Speaker 5: that what those numbers look like? I get peege on
Speaker 5: that at some point.
Speaker 4: Well, they know.
Speaker 2: The people that stick around know that podcasts with me
Speaker 2: and you on this speed tend to be rambling and
Speaker 2: just all over the place. I believe that we did
Speaker 2: do one that we titled a show about Nothing about
Speaker 2: five years.
Speaker 5: Ago, maybe one of the worst episodes in the Shotgun
Speaker 5: Start history outside of the one you guys recorded in
Speaker 5: the car, which is always going to be number one.
Speaker 5: But I will say I was very proud of you
Speaker 5: all that you even in your advanced podcasting era still
Speaker 5: do the thing where you're in different rooms in the
Speaker 5: same house doing the pod. I got a good kick
Speaker 5: out of that.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, we didn't have PJ. If we had had
Speaker 2: PJ with us in Scotland, we would have been able
Speaker 2: to just do it all together. But you know, we
Speaker 2: we regress to the technical of myself and Brendan and
Speaker 2: and thus we're going to record in different rooms.
Speaker 6: But it worked, it happened, It got a word door.
Speaker 6: I was a little I was stressing about the Wi
Speaker 6: Fi capabilities of whatever house in Scotland you guys had,
Speaker 6: but for even all three of you, it worked. It
Speaker 6: was great. It was you know, I'm just happy it happened.
Speaker 2: This reminded me I have a bunch of stuff I
Speaker 2: need to back up now that I'm on Wi Fi.
Speaker 4: That that is you know, quick there, And you.
Speaker 5: Have a question for you. By the way, Pege and
Speaker 5: I are airplane buddies, so we've already been on an
Speaker 5: airplane together this year, Andy, when did you decide to
Speaker 5: go to the like the flight controller microphone thing made me? Okay,
Speaker 5: what was the reason for this?
Speaker 6: Okay, this was for when we were doing a show
Speaker 6: at the us open last year in the brewery, so
Speaker 6: I needed better sound quality. I couldn't have open mics,
Speaker 6: so I bought these headsets. Brendan habitual bad mic etiquette.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's he's he and forth.
Speaker 6: Yeah, makes it hard to edit on my end. So
Speaker 6: I said, screw it. We're going headsets full time. So
Speaker 6: you just you know, speak and it'll pick up.
Speaker 5: And move around all you want.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I'm going to go back to that,
Speaker 2: the the mic stand.
Speaker 4: I don't like the headset, you know, I would.
Speaker 5: Like I would like every I would like once an episode,
Speaker 5: every episode you just randomly talk about, like a flight incoming,
Speaker 5: just just on the side, like Newark to O'Hair. Yeah, fo.
Speaker 6: Go Freddy Kitchens with the with the play sheet. You
Speaker 6: gotta cover and cover your mouth.
Speaker 5: It's pretty good. I like that a lot.
Speaker 4: I had a disaster of flight yesterday.
Speaker 5: Wait, so you were in Scotland. You flew Scotland to
Speaker 5: where to Wear.
Speaker 4: To Newark to sfo.
Speaker 5: Oh, you actually flew to Newark? I was I was
Speaker 5: actually joking about that. I don't I've never I haven't
Speaker 5: stopped but lived in the Northeast now for five years,
Speaker 5: have not stepped foot in Newark one time.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's fine, it's I feel like everything is
Speaker 2: Newark's like a generic you know, it looks nice, but
Speaker 2: it's just you know, there's no name brand behind it.
Speaker 2: I got delayed there for a couple hours. I ended
Speaker 2: up traveling. I was traveling for twenty three and a
Speaker 2: half hours.
Speaker 5: Hmmm, that's tough. That's tough. How was the Old Course?
Speaker 5: By the way, it was amazing. Okay, you played it reverse?
Speaker 5: Did you play it normal and then reverse.
Speaker 4: Normal and then reverse? It was a great event.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think I have to like tell
Speaker 2: people this, but I mean that's about.
Speaker 4: As good of an event as you can do. They
Speaker 4: do the Old.
Speaker 2: Course Reverse Lottery, which I assume your chances of winning
Speaker 2: are very small, but you should enter it every year
Speaker 2: because if you win, it's like the coolest event you
Speaker 2: could do. They have dinner. They have a dinner one night.
Speaker 2: We did a live podcast one night, and uh, it's
Speaker 2: just like it's pretty surreal. It's just it's wild how
Speaker 2: the course works. And I think we're gonna do a
Speaker 2: Friday episode about this maybe next week. But in a
Speaker 2: way like the you don't how the front nine of
Speaker 2: the old course really makes sense. Yeah, and then the
Speaker 2: back nine is a little bit like chaos.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's really starting on twelve t it's
Speaker 5: just total chaos.
Speaker 2: Yes, well, the back nine when you're playing the in
Speaker 2: reverse is the front nine, and it actually makes a
Speaker 2: lot of sense. Like one T one tee to seventeen
Speaker 2: Green is a really good hole.
Speaker 5: Yeah for sure. So you hit driver on one and
Speaker 5: did you hit it down like by the bridge or
Speaker 5: was there did you have to take less than driver?
Speaker 2: So I played Hickory's in the reverse because it's only
Speaker 2: like six thousand yards Okay, Okay, so I mean it
Speaker 2: was long, but two is a two in reverse is crazy?
Speaker 2: So going from seventeen t or no next to seventeen
Speaker 2: green to sixteen green you have to play over the
Speaker 2: over the corn into the green.
Speaker 5: No to hit over there.
Speaker 2: I mean it's like it's way harder. I think it's
Speaker 2: way harder than the road hole.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I mean is it a part? I mean,
Speaker 5: I know it's pars of irrelevant. Is it kind of
Speaker 5: a par five in theory or no?
Speaker 4: It was apparently originally a par five.
Speaker 5: Okay, that would make more sense, But.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it made a ton of sense, like, you know,
Speaker 2: the obviously the hole on the old course that everybody
Speaker 2: says is just like you know, absurd is the twelfth
Speaker 2: hole because you can't see any of the bunker.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 5: No, When I was Caddy in there, Andy and I
Speaker 5: would tell people there were, however many eight bunkers or
Speaker 5: whatever out there, and they would look at you like
Speaker 5: you were a complete moron, which they weren't wrong. I
Speaker 5: was a complete more on. But there were the bunkers
Speaker 5: out there, and then they you know, I mean everybody
Speaker 5: hits it in them. I mean unless you're you know,
Speaker 5: unless you hit it three hundred yards, you're hitting it
Speaker 5: in a bunker no matter what. And I mean you
Speaker 5: could hit it way right to be okay if the
Speaker 5: rough's down a little bit. But there's literally nowhere to
Speaker 5: hit that t shot.
Speaker 4: It's it's that's a ridiculous hole.
Speaker 2: I was playing it dead into the wind, and I
Speaker 2: was like, I don't know where to hit it because like,
Speaker 2: if it's not into the wind, I feel like I
Speaker 2: could get past everything.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, which is mine. Yeah, you can vombit over
Speaker 5: everything with like with your with your actual equipment. But yeah,
Speaker 5: Hickorys would have been different to play on that.
Speaker 4: But yeah, Hickory's made it incredible. I I regret.
Speaker 2: I was like kind of in a I've got a
Speaker 2: lot of stuff going on with my life right now,
Speaker 2: in a bit of a.
Speaker 5: I mean, you got eight airplanes, you got airplanes frying
Speaker 5: of land. I mean, you got a lot of stuff going.
Speaker 2: And when I packed for the trip, obviously I did
Speaker 2: Augusta to Saint Andrews.
Speaker 4: I was gone for sixteen days.
Speaker 2: But I packed at like ten pm the night before Augusta,
Speaker 2: leaving for Augusta, and I just threw my clubs in.
Speaker 4: I didn't even think.
Speaker 2: But I like two weeks earlier I had thought like, okay,
Speaker 2: make your set like a real cool set for for.
Speaker 4: Your week of links golf.
Speaker 2: But I got to the point where I just was
Speaker 2: like and pack as fast as you can mode and
Speaker 2: just like threw the clubs into the travel bag, sipped
Speaker 2: it up. Yeah, and I was like, that's done. So
Speaker 2: I wish I would have thought about it more. But
Speaker 2: I mean, Scotland's undefeated. It's have you done the reverse?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 5: No, never never done the reverse. Would be very would
Speaker 5: be very into that, I mean, you know, like spending
Speaker 5: a decent amount of time. I would always when I
Speaker 5: had guys walk off twelve green, I would always make
Speaker 5: them turn around and I'll be like, just so you know,
Speaker 5: this makes way more sense, you know, and they would
Speaker 5: always look back and a couple of holes like that thirteen.
Speaker 5: I feel like kind of a little similar in terms of, yeah,
Speaker 5: the second shot to that green kind of you kind
Speaker 5: of can't hit a close second shot there, you know,
Speaker 5: unless the whole locations like way back. But they wouldn't
Speaker 5: push it that far back most of the time. But
Speaker 5: I feel like reversing that hole as well, you're more
Speaker 5: playing into the green or whatever.
Speaker 2: It felt like the entire back nine to me actually
Speaker 2: worked back or in reverse.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know, it is the way it is.
Speaker 2: It would be cool if they kept mowing it out
Speaker 2: more and more every year so it gets better in reverse.
Speaker 4: And maybe they didn't do it more often. I don't know.
Speaker 2: It's uh, I didn't expect to do Old Course reverse minute.
Speaker 2: But you know, the open opens at the Old Course
Speaker 2: next year. That's next year. I can't wait. I I
Speaker 2: like want to go to St. Andrews every year.
Speaker 5: It's yeah, it's it's an interesting major lineup. If you
Speaker 5: looked the next year August the Pebbles and Andrews and Frisco. Yeah,
Speaker 5: so it's an interesting lineup.
Speaker 2: It is mean pebble obviously, Like you talk about the
Speaker 2: cathedrals of the game, and I don't know if pebble
Speaker 2: should still be considered a cathedral, but it is, but
Speaker 2: it is, But it is with what equipment's done to it.
Speaker 4: But it is.
Speaker 2: You have a Pebble and the old course, like two
Speaker 2: of the most sought after venues to win a major
Speaker 2: at and then you and then you got Frisco.
Speaker 4: But Frisco. Maybe in one hundred years people will be like,
Speaker 4: PJA Frisco.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's one of the drums you beat that I
Speaker 5: love about the future planning for major sites is what
Speaker 5: if a new course gets built, it's awesome and you're
Speaker 5: just not going to have any holes. But by the way,
Speaker 5: I think there's a hole. Maybe is twenty eight open
Speaker 5: right now? For the Open?
Speaker 4: For the Open? I think they've been talking a lot
Speaker 4: about Portmarnock maybe.
Speaker 5: Okay, okay in Ireland.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting, that's controversal to go to Ireland, you know.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, it's just it's interesting that we live in
Speaker 5: a place where you're hit here hearing about majors in
Speaker 5: like twenty fifty four, and then in three years from now,
Speaker 5: we don't know where the Open is going to be playing.
Speaker 5: But again, I think that's how it used to be.
Speaker 5: I'm assuming is you probably didn't really know the venue
Speaker 5: until a couple of years ahead, right.
Speaker 2: No, I mean that's the thing. I feel like it
Speaker 2: used to be like a year ahead, you know.
Speaker 5: But now now now he's googling. Now he's googling, so
Speaker 5: he's not paying attention now, PJ probably gon have to
Speaker 5: hoop in here and talk to me about uh, you know, etiquette,
Speaker 5: illegrdia or something. If you're if you're gonna be googling now.
Speaker 6: I mean, it's it's fine. He was getting there.
Speaker 5: You could.
Speaker 6: You can tell when the eyes start getting big that
Speaker 6: he's reading. But he was getting there. I could tell
Speaker 6: he was close.
Speaker 5: Hey, hey, Peaj, let me ask you a question. How's
Speaker 5: your life right now? How are you doing?
Speaker 3: You know?
Speaker 6: I'm doing great. I had a great day out in
Speaker 6: the links. Got to play some golf this morning. He
Speaker 6: was great.
Speaker 5: Where'd you play?
Speaker 4: Peach played wing foot today?
Speaker 6: I played?
Speaker 5: Oh I was supposed to play in that thing? But
Speaker 5: I had ad a CBS show this morning. Andy. It's
Speaker 5: the show that still comes up as the DVR as
Speaker 5: y'all's old show, which cracks me up. We've told him
Speaker 5: a few times that they could adjust that, so maybe
Speaker 5: we'll get it adjusted by summer.
Speaker 4: But from family members about it, they're.
Speaker 5: Like, where are you on the show, and you're like, no,
Speaker 5: not my show.
Speaker 4: Hey, congrats on your new show, The Scorecard.
Speaker 5: Yeah, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been a sports network. It's on on Saturdays
Speaker 2: and Sundays, right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so it'll be after the signature events coming going forward.
Speaker 5: We just did one. Joe Musso and I do it,
Speaker 5: Wagner does it, Emmelman comes on, Cold Nosed Pops on
Speaker 5: I think a Man is gonna come on every now
Speaker 5: and again as well. But it's beast. It's basically just
Speaker 5: right when the golf INDs on CBS, will be up
Speaker 5: on Paramount Plus. It's on YouTube as well. It's kind
Speaker 5: of you know, it's kind of across the board. But yeah,
Speaker 5: it was fun. I mean, Wags was out there recreating
Speaker 5: golf shots. We got the challenge Trevor about the wind. Yeah,
Speaker 5: he actually he didn't hit the shot. Perfectly like Scotty
Speaker 5: did out of the trees. I know you probably didn't
Speaker 5: watch a lot of golf last weekend, but he hit
Speaker 5: the second one twenty feet. I was very impressed.
Speaker 4: We actually did. We got it, We got it going.
Speaker 2: We were watching the Sky's telecast. But you know one
Speaker 2: spot we jumped in in St. Andrews that I didn't
Speaker 2: know St Andrews needed t squared. The tiger Woods justin
Speaker 2: Timberlake collaborate.
Speaker 5: Where is it? Where is it a cigar war? No,
Speaker 5: it's preposterous.
Speaker 4: It's so it's so absurd. It's just built for tourists.
Speaker 5: It's wait, where is it? What's it?
Speaker 2: So it's right by you know where the Greyfriars in is.
Speaker 2: It's like it's like three blocks from the old course. Okay,
Speaker 2: it was in the old movie theater.
Speaker 5: Oh I think the movie that's up past past the
Speaker 5: done Vegan on the left. Yes, oh man, I've been
Speaker 5: at that movie theater.
Speaker 4: So it's in a movie.
Speaker 2: It's this bar, this Tiger Woods adjusted Timberlake collaboration bar,
Speaker 2: which is humorous for you know, their their driving issues.
Speaker 2: But the uh, the place like it has sports on
Speaker 2: a movie screen. And then there's simulators. I mean it's
Speaker 2: just like a tourist factory.
Speaker 5: Was it busy?
Speaker 2: No, No, I mean it was it was at like,
Speaker 2: you know, probably thirty percent capacity. When we walked in.
Speaker 2: We just we went in and walked right out. I
Speaker 2: mean I wanted to see the space.
Speaker 5: Yeah I could, I could.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: It was more of a social just to see the
Speaker 2: social scene there.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you want to go. If you're gonna grab a pinet,
Speaker 5: you'd prefer to probably go to a little bit more
Speaker 5: historical establishment if you could.
Speaker 6: Would you prefer to go to the T Squared in
Speaker 6: Saint Andrew's or the one right next to Grand Central.
Speaker 4: What do you think one in New York?
Speaker 6: Where do you think the vibes are better? I can't
Speaker 6: say I've ever been, but now I kind of need
Speaker 6: to go for science.
Speaker 5: Hey, PJ, listen, I will guarantee you this. If you
Speaker 5: want to go one day, a lovely little little little
Speaker 5: spring afternoon, you let me know and I'll meet you there.
Speaker 5: I feel like we're gonna be on do a full report.
Speaker 5: I can do a full report on how it is.
Speaker 5: We could take some picks next to maybe some of
Speaker 5: the great images of our two of our two kind
Speaker 5: of music and golf heroes, and and you know.
Speaker 6: What we should do. We should get Joseph to lunch
Speaker 6: with the boys, Bacon for lunch at T squared.
Speaker 5: So Facon Burgers at T Spiers.
Speaker 6: I think we just I think Squared might.
Speaker 5: Be sponsoring this pod very soon. Sign them up, give
Speaker 5: business peat on it.
Speaker 4: My sad thing.
Speaker 2: I'm just sad now thinking about this that PJ didn't
Speaker 2: get to go to the Woods a couple months ago
Speaker 2: because they closed down.
Speaker 6: I still can't believe how during during a TG all
Speaker 6: night they closed at nine o'clock. The game wasn't even away,
Speaker 6: it wasn't even right. It is right because we went,
Speaker 6: We were there.
Speaker 5: That's tough. That's tough man. That's not knowing your that's
Speaker 5: not knowing your clientele. You got to be open for
Speaker 5: the for the fans. Jupe Links locked and loaded.
Speaker 6: You know, but they played the jukee Links matches. It
Speaker 6: was not a Jupe Links match. In their defense, however,
Speaker 6: they do say that they play the jupe Link matches
Speaker 6: with sound on the flyers. They put, oh so you
Speaker 6: can hear, you can hear what's going on.
Speaker 5: You know. You know what tgl is is is a
Speaker 5: pretty good bar watch. I feel like I think TGL,
Speaker 5: you know, if football is over whatever, I feel like
Speaker 5: TGL is a pretty solid watch at a bar. You
Speaker 5: don't necessarily need the sound to at least just take
Speaker 5: in what's going on.
Speaker 4: Now, you know, while we're on it, let's hit some
Speaker 4: of the news of the day.
Speaker 6: The biggest news of the day.
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, I have two things.
Speaker 4: I have a different thing. It's the biggest news of
Speaker 4: the day, Shane.
Speaker 2: I'm happy because we've talked fifteen minutes about nothing, and thankfully,
Speaker 2: nothing's really going on in the golf world right now.
Speaker 5: This is factual.
Speaker 4: I mean, it's a zuri week.
Speaker 6: I was gonna say, this is I'm surprised you're you
Speaker 6: should be like a pig and shit with this field.
Speaker 6: This is the worst field I think I've ever seen.
Speaker 6: This is the field that is going to radicalize me
Speaker 6: because this is abhorrent. This is a disgusting event, disgusting.
Speaker 2: It's not going to exist anymore. You can't have a
Speaker 2: cutthroat tour and hand out exceptions for a partner event.
Speaker 5: Hey, can I ask can I I'll ask both of
Speaker 5: you guys this. I post this question today on our
Speaker 5: on our on our show with a with Patrick McDonald
Speaker 5: and I and I think it's a decent take. Since
Speaker 5: they give out full PGA tour wins for the Zurich
Speaker 5: right now, and the fact that it is likely going
Speaker 5: to go away, why wouldn't Rory and Scotty play in
Speaker 5: this together and both get a win, like just be
Speaker 5: like whatever, We'll just win and it goes on and
Speaker 5: just add to their total, right.
Speaker 4: I think they value weeks at home.
Speaker 6: Tour win all right, Well it seems like everybody does,
Speaker 6: because I think the biggest indictment out of this whole thing,
Speaker 6: no Hoyguards just can't pack it up. Cancel this event.
Speaker 6: If you can't even get the Hoyguards, we don't need the.
Speaker 5: Fitzies are there now? Come on, the Fitzies are blocked
Speaker 5: and loaded.
Speaker 6: Well, you know Alex is a winner now, So I
Speaker 6: guess that that does change the prop on that I
Speaker 6: get a little bit.
Speaker 2: I'm personally a big fan of the Jonathan Bird chez.
Speaker 5: Revi oh Man, I loved that one. I loved that
Speaker 5: one so much. Do you know what brought We brought
Speaker 5: that up today and Patrick McDonald on our show said,
Speaker 5: Chez Revey has a win more recent than Speed on
Speaker 5: the PGA Tour that way, Yeah, that's bad. He was
Speaker 5: Chez won the Kudah a few years ago, more recently
Speaker 5: than it was the twenty two Kudah. Yeah. Then Speed's
Speaker 5: one on the PGA Tour, which is so wild.
Speaker 2: You tied this all back together for me, Shane, because
Speaker 2: Brendan and I were in Saint Andrews when Chez won
Speaker 2: the Coudah. It was the week of the Open in
Speaker 2: twenty two and we went on Saturday night.
Speaker 4: We stumbled into the woods.
Speaker 5: You went to the Timberlake and Tiger Place or no.
Speaker 4: We later found out as like the student union.
Speaker 5: Okay, it was a bar.
Speaker 4: It was.
Speaker 2: It was just rocking middle of summer, all these you know,
Speaker 2: there are a bunch of twenty somethings in there. You know,
Speaker 2: they were kids making out and in the background, the
Speaker 2: Kudah was on.
Speaker 4: That's what we were watching.
Speaker 5: Chez just dominate some dudes, some dudes finally kissing this girl.
Speaker 5: He's like for six months, and you guys are like,
Speaker 5: can you move out of the way. Chez Revie might
Speaker 5: win the Barracuda. They're like, what is happening here? We
Speaker 5: got to get these Americans out of this place.
Speaker 2: God, we just found that the fabric that ties the
Speaker 2: old the old course discussion with with the with this
Speaker 2: week's Zurich.
Speaker 5: I wonder how Chez is played in the opens at St. Andrew's.
Speaker 4: You know what I heard from a source.
Speaker 5: Yeah, go ahead.
Speaker 2: So there's been like a run of different guys that
Speaker 2: just dominate at Whisper rock Yeah, and Chez apparently was
Speaker 2: one of them.
Speaker 5: Not surprised.
Speaker 2: This person was like, it's weird, but like I'm standing
Speaker 2: on the tea box and we're we're flipping teas for partners,
Speaker 2: and I'm hoping the tea lands on Chez Revie not
Speaker 2: John Rock. I mean unbeatable at Whisper Rocky.
Speaker 5: I mean, I mean, you know, I mean go out
Speaker 5: there and you could probably if you hit a lot
Speaker 5: of fairways, hit it straight, probably shoot sixty five. You know,
Speaker 5: a pretty decent clip out there. It's not an overly
Speaker 5: long golf course, both of them. So yeah, probably doable.
Speaker 4: I hear spawns now that now the guy that nobody
Speaker 4: wants to do.
Speaker 5: So Tana, it was Tana, it was it was ogle V.
Speaker 5: Well remember remember ogle V? I think the year he
Speaker 5: won the US Open. Played in the like the the
Speaker 5: Club Championship there sony Week and finished outside the top fifteen.
Speaker 5: I think the the year after the year after he
Speaker 5: won the US Open. Yeah, you'll have to ask him
Speaker 5: about that.
Speaker 2: I will ask him about that. Ten Tannagalla took him
Speaker 2: out there.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Tanna Gala was the guy, and then it was
Speaker 5: and so then it was Chez and now it's JJ.
Speaker 4: Now it's Spawn.
Speaker 5: Yeah, there you go. So some Scotts golf news for.
Speaker 2: You, Chez review minute. We didn't even get to the
Speaker 2: biggest golf news of the day. Do you know what
Speaker 2: it is?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: Uh, TGL Player of the Year. Did you see who
Speaker 2: who won TGL Player of the Year?
Speaker 6: I did?
Speaker 5: I did not?
Speaker 4: Do you want to guess who was?
Speaker 5: All right? So what team won at all?
Speaker 4: Who won? L A l A l A beat Jeep stinks?
Speaker 5: And I'll say, is Tommy Fleetwood's on l A. I'll
Speaker 5: say Tommy Fleetwood player of the Player of the years.
Speaker 4: That we're going with right first name?
Speaker 5: Oh Tom Tom Kim, Tom Kim, Tom.
Speaker 4: Tom Kim tg L player of the Year.
Speaker 5: Now, I wonder if you get a trophy for that.
Speaker 2: I mean, we were gonna we were we've been joking
Speaker 2: about doing our own TGL Awards segment.
Speaker 4: It's seting people the actual like actual trophies.
Speaker 6: I gotta be honest, I don't think we could have
Speaker 6: come up with something better than Tom Kim.
Speaker 5: No. I don't think it's like that. You can't beat
Speaker 5: the joke right like SNL like got to avoid some
Speaker 5: of this stuff. Sometimes it's just like too good to
Speaker 5: be true.
Speaker 6: I don't I don't think we could beat that. I
Speaker 6: think I think they jumped us in the pecking order
Speaker 6: for TGL Awards. I don't think we can top that.
Speaker 5: Listen, I consume a decent a on TGL. I don't
Speaker 5: necessarily remember if Tomkin was good or bad. I do
Speaker 5: know that he gets pretty excited on the golf course,
Speaker 5: which is good for TGL. Was he good?
Speaker 4: I think?
Speaker 6: Well, I don't know if you heard, maybe you didn't.
Speaker 6: He made a hole in one that got over nineteen
Speaker 6: million views across all the ESPN's platform.
Speaker 5: It's a good point. That's a good point.
Speaker 2: Some people he won the award because of that whole one,
Speaker 2: without a doubt, not.
Speaker 6: Naming names, some people hypothetically have called the hole in
Speaker 6: one into potential question given that it was to win
Speaker 6: a match to get Tiger's team into the playoffs. Okay,
Speaker 6: you know some people have thrown that out there could
Speaker 6: be anybody, but it got a guy trophy, So congrats.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know you know what him home to
Speaker 2: peach you like this while you're here, remember how I uh, this.
Speaker 5: Is an episode about nothing already, just nothing.
Speaker 2: You don't turn it off your families, Bacon, I don't
Speaker 2: know if I told you I got ticket ont of
Speaker 2: my bike.
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, I heard the story. I heard it on
Speaker 5: the pod.
Speaker 4: Do you care to guess how much the ticket was?
Speaker 5: I mean, you're in California, I mean is not cheap? Probably?
Speaker 6: I bet it's three fifty Oh I was thinking not cheap?
Speaker 6: Was one seventy five? Was my guess?
Speaker 4: Well? Split the baby there? Two hundred and thirty three dollars.
Speaker 5: Oh my goodness.
Speaker 2: Or I could go wait for was it for speeding
Speaker 2: on my birthday?
Speaker 4: I decided to pay the ticket.
Speaker 6: No, you had, Oh you had to go. One of
Speaker 6: the odds the guy would show up, like realistically.
Speaker 5: Man, we I had that PJ had that happened in
Speaker 5: college one time we got in trouble for a party
Speaker 5: of our house. And the cop. I went to court
Speaker 5: and the cop didn't show up, and they threw it out,
Speaker 5: and I was like, the best day of our lives
Speaker 5: in all of college is going back home and telling everybody,
Speaker 5: really good.
Speaker 6: You could have ever received? This guy did not show up.
Speaker 4: I got too much stuff going on. I'm not going.
Speaker 4: I'm not going to traffic court.
Speaker 5: So Andy, it was, it's two thirty three. What is
Speaker 5: on the ticket? Like, what does it say you did?
Speaker 2: It says that I didn't. I failed to stop at
Speaker 2: a stop side. Oh yeah, okay, failure.
Speaker 4: To stop at a stop side two and thirty three dollars.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna guess this is the most ridiculous ticket you've
Speaker 5: received in your life. Is that fair? Uh?
Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe maybe.
Speaker 5: I got I got aggressive left turn one time tickets
Speaker 5: in Arizona. Was going to I was, I was going.
Speaker 5: I was in my twenties. I was going on a
Speaker 5: date to pick up a girl to go to a movie.
Speaker 5: And I took a left in front of a cop. Honestly, honestly,
Speaker 5: not that close. I mean he did. I'm assuming he
Speaker 5: didn't have to lock up his brakes. Might I had
Speaker 5: to push the brakes and he turned his lights on
Speaker 5: and he gave me an aggressive left turn ticket. That's
Speaker 5: never heard that one before, never heard that one before.
Speaker 2: I didn't even know aggressive left turn it exists, just.
Speaker 5: Like I didn't know you could get a ticket on
Speaker 5: a bike. I didn't know that.
Speaker 2: I mean I should go I should have gone to court.
Speaker 2: I already paid the ticket, but you know it's not
Speaker 2: on your life.
Speaker 5: Do you think we're going to talk about any golf
Speaker 5: today or.
Speaker 2: No, Well, we've talked about golf, We've talked about the
Speaker 2: old course. I wanted to get to the next news
Speaker 2: item that beat. I would say Tom Khim TGL Player
Speaker 2: of the Year was number one, number two news item today.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 2: This was the press release that came across by desk
Speaker 2: this afternoon. Live Golf plants flag in Oklahoma with launch
Speaker 2: of OKGC, the league's first team anchored in a US state.
Speaker 5: It is now let me ask you honest. I mean,
Speaker 5: first of all, I mean, I mean dismissing the whole
Speaker 5: like we're an international product and we're not going to
Speaker 5: be in America. The fact that that was spoken, I
Speaker 5: don't know, three or four days ago. So does this
Speaker 5: mean is it smash is gone? Is that the point
Speaker 5: of it gone no more smash and now we're what
Speaker 5: do we call it in Oklahoma? Okag okay GC okay
Speaker 5: GC Okay. It's better, it's better. The logo is not great,
Speaker 5: I gotta be honest with you. From a logo guy
Speaker 5: with the star in the middle, just it's I mean,
Speaker 5: we could do better. We could do better with the logo,
Speaker 5: but the name is an improvement.
Speaker 2: You know. The they said that that was an award
Speaker 2: winning design company that that designed the logo.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just listen, I mean list Tom Kim won
Speaker 5: an award to day and we're already laughing about that.
Speaker 5: Not all awards are amazing, right.
Speaker 4: Can I tell you what the okay See brand is about?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, of course.
Speaker 2: The okay See brand is inspired by the values that
Speaker 2: define the state.
Speaker 4: Okay, Well, what would you say defines Oklahoma? Oh?
Speaker 5: I mean, you know, Oklahoma is a pretty I've spent
Speaker 5: decent amount of time in Oklahoma back in my younger days.
Speaker 5: Good people, windy oil, I feel like those are those
Speaker 5: are probably big parts of Oklahoma.
Speaker 2: And I'll give them grit grit, grit grit, right yep,
Speaker 2: forward momentum.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know what that means.
Speaker 7: It just says it randomly or is it part of
Speaker 7: this says these are the values that define the state,
Speaker 7: and ok GC grit, forward momentum, just not.
Speaker 5: To make this just a nothing burger, keep going.
Speaker 4: And a strong sense of belonging. Is there a value?
Speaker 5: I mean no, no, no, no, that's I mean, like, Grit's
Speaker 5: the only winner there. Everything else is just just words.
Speaker 4: What are your good values for?
Speaker 6: I like what? I just do you think Presty has
Speaker 6: this on the wall and like the draft room? I
Speaker 6: just like forward momentum, Grit. It's a long.
Speaker 5: Hey, are we going to just continue down this road
Speaker 5: of these types of press releases in sports forever? It
Speaker 5: only going to get like this worse.
Speaker 6: I actually hope it gets I hope it gets worse.
Speaker 2: Listen, we're entering the AI press release era. It's only
Speaker 2: going to get better for this podcast. It's only it's
Speaker 2: only going to get better the more you know, brand
Speaker 2: people rely on AI to write things.
Speaker 6: For that, I think we need to start bringing our
Speaker 6: own press releases back. I think we need to get
Speaker 6: back in the lab on some press releases.
Speaker 2: It's been a while. It has been a while. You
Speaker 2: know who you could do a press release for Friday
Speaker 2: Golf Clubs.
Speaker 5: There it is we did. I knew he could do it.
Speaker 5: I was so proud. I have a fridagg hat I
Speaker 5: was going to put on while you did this read.
Speaker 5: I don't know where I put it.
Speaker 2: We've got a membership. It's called Frida Egg Golf Club.
Speaker 2: It's exciting, you know. We we write stuff there. There's
Speaker 2: a community there. We have a bunch of events, the
Speaker 2: censor community.
Speaker 4: Well, there's you'll have a strong sense of belonging.
Speaker 2: If you joined Friday Golf Club, it's pretty Maybe it
Speaker 2: could give you some forward momentum in your golf game.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know.
Speaker 2: We used to say if you subscribe to subscribers that
Speaker 2: of Friday the Friday e newsletter, make more birdies.
Speaker 4: You know, yeah, yeah, yeah. That was never proven, but
Speaker 4: you know it could give you momentum.
Speaker 2: But Friday Golf Club, you get discounts on merch, you
Speaker 2: can get early access to events. We have Friday Golf
Speaker 2: Club only events and.
Speaker 4: It's a great, great deal. So one hundred twenty dollars
Speaker 4: a year. It goes. It supports what we do. It
Speaker 4: helps us make more cool stuff.
Speaker 2: And I am really proud of the community, Like if
Speaker 2: you're into golf, there's just a bunch of people that
Speaker 2: are pretty chill and into golf.
Speaker 5: I mean, one hundred and twenty dollars is one decision
Speaker 5: to order out dinner versus cooking at home like a year. Yeah,
Speaker 5: that's just one. That's one time you're like, I don't
Speaker 5: know if I want to make the kill sala, let's
Speaker 5: order pizza. You order a couple pizzas and breadsticks. Probably
Speaker 5: ends up being one twenty with the delivery charge, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like we've entered a period of society
Speaker 2: where like just like every time it turned around, I'm
Speaker 2: paying one hundred dollars or something.
Speaker 5: I got. I got Chick fil A the other day
Speaker 5: for my kids and me and it was thirty eight
Speaker 5: dollars and I was like, man, it just feels like
Speaker 5: a lot of money.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that used to be like twenty dollars.
Speaker 2: That's right, all right, Well, Fridayy Golf Club you can
Speaker 2: join at the Frida egg dot com.
Speaker 4: That was, you know, as good of a read has
Speaker 4: ever been done.
Speaker 5: For Freshi Golf Club Prodia.
Speaker 2: Oh I wanted to finish the press press release here, okay,
Speaker 2: so okay, GC the ethos will be reflected across team uniforms,
Speaker 2: fan first, merchandise, content and marketing activation throughout the remainder
Speaker 2: of the.
Speaker 4: Twenty twenty sixth seasons.
Speaker 2: So that ethos of grit, forward, momentum, in a strong
Speaker 2: sense of belonging, they're gonna just carry that through everything
Speaker 2: they're doing.
Speaker 5: Have you do you think you've ever used the word
Speaker 5: ethos in any conversation in your life? Andy, I think
Speaker 5: I've used it, have you? Okay? I mean I don't know,
Speaker 5: not a lot.
Speaker 2: I'll say that I don't think I've ever said strong
Speaker 2: sense of belonging. So all right, let's get to the
Speaker 2: schedule of the week. We've got a We've got a
Speaker 2: jam packed week. We've got a women's major this week
Speaker 2: which is big. The Chevrons a week schedule.
Speaker 4: Of the week.
Speaker 2: This is usually BP's thing here, but we got the
Speaker 2: Chevron which is at a new golf course this year.
Speaker 2: It's that memorial Park. I think this is a good
Speaker 2: deal for the women going to a memorial park.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, it's my event of the week, that's
Speaker 5: for sure. I'm excited to watch it. You know, I
Speaker 5: was thinking about Nellie and the way she's played this year,
Speaker 5: so she has three seconds in a win that went
Speaker 5: out of the gate. That was the weird one with
Speaker 5: the scheduling, But you know, I mean obviously every time
Speaker 5: she teased it up, it's like she's obviously got a
Speaker 5: chance to win, kind of like Scotty recently. Just two
Speaker 5: majors for Nelly and the last was a couple of
Speaker 5: years ago at the Chevron, different golf course. I feel
Speaker 5: like this is a great golf course for her, just
Speaker 5: bomb driver all over the place. But I think we
Speaker 5: need to start winning the majors. If for Nelly, you know,
Speaker 5: getting getting picking up a couple.
Speaker 2: More, Yeah, yeah, I would agree with that. I think
Speaker 2: just in general, LPGA has gotten off to a great
Speaker 2: start in terms of winners, big name winners, unlike last
Speaker 2: year where they had the run of like basically no recall.
Speaker 5: Just everybody was one and done.
Speaker 2: Yet I think, yeah, I think obviously for the sports sake,
Speaker 2: like Nelly, winning majors is really good for the sport.
Speaker 2: I listen, like going from Carlton Woods, a private club
Speaker 2: that you know was very underbark an event to the
Speaker 2: most one of the most popular golf courses in America.
Speaker 2: I think I think Memorial Park does about eighty thousand
Speaker 2: rounds a year.
Speaker 5: Wow.
Speaker 2: Obviously they have a twelve month schedule. It's right in
Speaker 2: the city of Houston. It's like the place that the
Speaker 2: people play and it's a really cool design.
Speaker 4: I think this is this is awesome.
Speaker 2: I think the biggest thing, like I'm excited about is
Speaker 2: obviously the greens can get rocking and rolling out.
Speaker 4: There and they're pretty undulated, and.
Speaker 2: I think that's that makes women's golf a lot more
Speaker 2: interesting to watch, is when when they have these kind
Speaker 2: of small targets that they have to get at because
Speaker 2: they're extremely precise players, and it is really fun to
Speaker 2: watch when that's the case.
Speaker 4: So hopefully we get a firm weekend there.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 2: The purse is eight million dollars. I think it's up
Speaker 2: a million this year. I saw that news. Mao Sigo
Speaker 2: is a defending champ and a notables here are Lauren Coglin,
Speaker 2: Hannah Green, Jin youngco Lydia Coe, Nellie Korda as you mentioned,
Speaker 2: Minji Lee Gena, Citicool, Genothitical, and Lexi Thompson's play. So
Speaker 2: you can catch that on Golf Channel one to three
Speaker 2: East or Eastern six to eight Friday, same time Saturday,
Speaker 2: it is one to three on NBC or three to
Speaker 2: six on Golf Channel in Sunday's final round one thirty
Speaker 2: to two on Peacock and then two to five thirty
Speaker 2: on NBC SO on NBC Network TV for this weekend.
Speaker 2: The other big thing we've seen the pool installed, Shane,
Speaker 2: where do you stand on the on the on the
Speaker 2: temporary pool. It is like a pool that you would
Speaker 2: put in your house. It's a four and a half
Speaker 2: foot pool. It looks about eight feet wide and twelve
Speaker 2: feet long.
Speaker 4: It is beside the eighteenth.
Speaker 5: Gree It's got to be a penalty. The fact that
Speaker 5: it's a free drop is crazy to me. Make it
Speaker 5: a penalty. If you're gonna put the pool in, it's
Speaker 5: got to be a penalty.
Speaker 2: It's insane that they get a free drop if they
Speaker 2: hit it in the pool.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's like that's it's water. That's the
Speaker 5: only free drop of water in golf history. Right? Is
Speaker 5: there another example of this ever? I don't think you
Speaker 5: think one?
Speaker 2: And another example of a tournament installing a pool for
Speaker 2: one week.
Speaker 5: Like it's you've got it's not big, it's tiny. It's
Speaker 5: like hard to hit into it, but like put the
Speaker 5: whole location right next to it on Sunday and involve
Speaker 5: the pool. If we're gonna build a pool for the jump,
Speaker 5: you've got to make it a penalty.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it feels like this is a complete mess.
Speaker 2: If you're putting it in a temporary pool that looks
Speaker 2: absolutely preposterous just so the winner can jump in, as
Speaker 2: was the tradition at one of your most historic events,
Speaker 2: which you got it and moved, but you've somehow held
Speaker 2: onto even though the event's name something completely different.
Speaker 4: It's a new event. This is just it shouldn't happen.
Speaker 4: I feel like I get.
Speaker 2: More upset about the pool the longer it goes. And
Speaker 2: now they're going to build a pond just for them
Speaker 2: to jump into.
Speaker 5: I mean, is is that going to be a penalty?
Speaker 5: Is the pond gonna be a penalty or no.
Speaker 4: Okay, pod it's gonna be a penalty.
Speaker 5: I just can't believe the pool is not a penalty.
Speaker 5: It's so it's fun that like is a fun wrinkle
Speaker 5: to the golf tournament, you.
Speaker 4: Know, Yeah, it would be cool and it'd be funny
Speaker 4: if somebody hit it into the pool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean My favorite thing is that the I've
Speaker 2: heard that the players hate the jumping into the pool tranted.
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, I don't know. What can I tell you?
Speaker 5: What the most insane tradition in sports is is dumping
Speaker 5: liquid on me when I won. And what I think
Speaker 5: is the craziest is when you don't dumb champagne like
Speaker 5: when these girls, when US junior girls and stuff, they're
Speaker 5: getting water dumped on them. It's like, no, I'm good.
Speaker 5: The whole point of the dumping stuff was to spray
Speaker 5: champagne on people, right, And obviously if you're underage, you're
Speaker 5: not gonna spray champagne on people. That makes sense, But
Speaker 5: you don't have to spray stuff on people that coming
Speaker 5: out with a with a bottle of aquafina and dumping
Speaker 5: it on my head after I won a golf tournament.
Speaker 5: I would be legitimately annoyed at that.
Speaker 4: Well, the other thing is you got to take a
Speaker 4: bunch of pictures one hund.
Speaker 2: Like like I don't soaking wet.
Speaker 5: Remember, and maybe they still do it. Remember they had
Speaker 5: a robe sponsorship at one point, I believe where you'd
Speaker 5: get like the robe and the caddy'd get the robe.
Speaker 5: Didn't Some mom. Didn't some players mom like bust their
Speaker 5: leg one time jumping in, Like.
Speaker 2: I feel like the other thing about this is a
Speaker 2: four and a half foot pool.
Speaker 4: Somebody is there a lifeguard? Get hurt?
Speaker 5: There should be a lifeguard. There should be I'm telling you.
Speaker 6: I suggested that to Brendan last week. I said, you
Speaker 6: have a pool in a public park, Like, I kind
Speaker 6: of feel like it's a law that there has to
Speaker 6: be a lifeguard. I suggested getting like the Wendy Pepper
Speaker 6: corn just sitting there, sunglasses like holding the thing. I mean,
Speaker 6: it would be it would be great. I think you could.
Speaker 5: You can actually sponsor that. I mean not like we
Speaker 5: need more sponsorships than golf, but like you could actually
Speaker 5: make that a sponsorship thing. Make it fun, silly, Bring
Speaker 5: a Houston celeb out to do it.
Speaker 6: Big big umbrella on top of the lifeguard stand. If
Speaker 6: you hit it off the umbrella, it could bounce onto
Speaker 6: the green, it could bounce anywhere. The umbrellas in play.
Speaker 4: Maybe who could have sponsored the umbrella?
Speaker 5: Travelers? Who travelers? Yeah, the travelers under the umbrella. I
Speaker 5: love it. I love it. Get get involved, travelers. I
Speaker 5: just again, I understand trying to grasp to this small
Speaker 5: piece of history that is unique to your sport. The
Speaker 5: jumping in the water thing. While it might have been
Speaker 5: strange and the players didn't like it, it was something
Speaker 5: people remembered about the major championship. So you bring that
Speaker 5: to Houston. Sure, right, I know it doesn't make a
Speaker 5: lot of sense, but bringing it to Houston it's fine.
Speaker 5: That's fine with me. You know, if you move it's like, okay.
Speaker 5: See players occasionally like wear supersonic stuff and you're like, eh,
Speaker 5: it doesn't really or like in the history books. They're
Speaker 5: still in the SuperSonics history books. But you gotta at
Speaker 5: least went into it.
Speaker 4: Who are SuperSonics gear.
Speaker 5: I mean I bet they will. I bet they do
Speaker 5: walk into TGL with like a you know, the original
Speaker 5: og Durant logo, Jersey on or camp or something. I'm
Speaker 5: sure they could do it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's uh, that'll be interesting. But you were going
Speaker 2: I interrupted first.
Speaker 5: Ye All I'm saying is, if you're going to lean
Speaker 5: into this, why not make it a little fun. I
Speaker 5: know it's a major championship, but it's water and golf
Speaker 5: have one result, and that is bad. And the fact
Speaker 5: that you're introducing water next to a green in a
Speaker 5: consequential moment. There should be some penalty there because that
Speaker 5: is how golf plays.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, If you're going to put this stupid little
Speaker 2: temporary pool in, it has.
Speaker 4: To be a penalty.
Speaker 5: Got to be a penalty.
Speaker 2: Any other spare Chevron thoughts before we move on to
Speaker 2: the next next event event on the calendar.
Speaker 5: No, I I'm excited about it. Like I said, it's
Speaker 5: my event of the week. I really like this golf course.
Speaker 5: I hope Andy that there are moments within the telecast
Speaker 5: kind of like what we saw at Pinehurst with Michelle
Speaker 5: Wee and Martin Kaimer. I'm hoping there's moments that they
Speaker 5: go back to shots hit on the PGA Tour to
Speaker 5: give you an example of maybe the difference of the
Speaker 5: trajectories or the way balls roll or things like that.
Speaker 5: It seems like an easy thing to lean into to
Speaker 5: just kind of marry the two tours a little bit,
Speaker 5: especially on Thursday Friday. Maybe not into the weekend, but
Speaker 5: I think that would be something cool to see, like
Speaker 5: where do players hit these T shots versus where the
Speaker 5: LPGA players are hitting T shots and then clubs they
Speaker 5: have in on average, I mean we don't get the
Speaker 5: same golf course often to compare these things to So
Speaker 5: I'm hoping there's some talk of at least integrating that,
Speaker 5: you know, within the broadcast.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think.
Speaker 2: I think one of the things that the LPGA could
Speaker 2: do just in general, is like they're trying to to
Speaker 2: garner a larger audience, like that, they have to grow,
Speaker 2: they have to grow their audience. So like the most
Speaker 2: logical place to grow your audience too, is like how
Speaker 2: do we get people that watch men's golf to watch
Speaker 2: women's golf? And if you prescribed by that theory, that's
Speaker 2: a really good idea.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: All right, these people already watch golf. Let's make this
Speaker 2: more relatable so they can understand the differences more more clearly.
Speaker 2: All right, next, next event on the calendar is this
Speaker 2: is a classic we touched on this. PJ has been
Speaker 2: radicalized by this. It's that TPC Louisiana. The purse is
Speaker 2: nine point five million dollars defending champs or Andrew Novak
Speaker 2: and Ben Griffin the notable teams in the field. You're
Speaker 2: ready for what this document tells are the noble team?
Speaker 5: How many? How many are there?
Speaker 2: I mean it looks like I'm not going to count them.
Speaker 2: It's not bad radio, but probably about ten.
Speaker 5: Okay, seems a like a lot. There's probably two notable
Speaker 5: teams games. There's two notable teams.
Speaker 4: I'm excited for you.
Speaker 2: You tell me if the you tell me which ones
Speaker 2: are notable and not notable? Ready Wyndham Clark and Taylor Moore, No,
Speaker 2: brooks Keptka and Shane Lowry.
Speaker 5: Yes, notable, No Vacuum Griffin defending Chance, Divining Champions. Okay,
Speaker 5: I'll say notable.
Speaker 2: Billy Harshall and Tom Hogy.
Speaker 5: And I'm gonna say no, how tong Lee and Jordan Smith?
Speaker 4: Does that get going for you?
Speaker 5: They should have just written speed and just seeing if
Speaker 5: anybody noticed. They should have written it down.
Speaker 4: Honestly, I think George Smith is better golf for the
Speaker 4: George Speed.
Speaker 5: Well, I'm not saying he's not. I'm just saying in
Speaker 5: terms of if you're trying to get people to read
Speaker 5: this document and get eyeballs on it, you could have
Speaker 5: just leaned in and just all whenever somebody can play,
Speaker 5: and God is a mistake? Are bad?
Speaker 4: Matt and Alex Fitzpatrick.
Speaker 5: That's a notable team. That's probably the team that's gonna win.
Speaker 4: This is a fun team.
Speaker 2: Michael Brennan, Johnny Keefer, two boys that in the fall
Speaker 2: everybody was like, they're going to run the PGA Tour
Speaker 2: this year.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I gotta be honest. Any there's like four teams
Speaker 5: like this. There's four teams that are like next up
Speaker 5: that are not probably next up. Maybe Brennan is next stup.
Speaker 5: We'll see.
Speaker 2: I got a note passed to be I'll keep this.
Speaker 2: This the source anonymous for this. But this is about
Speaker 2: a team. You title them the bad News Barons, says.
Speaker 5: Mad News Barons.
Speaker 4: Ken Birmingham duo Nick Dunlap.
Speaker 5: And so this is this is one of my This
Speaker 5: is one of my This is one of my like
Speaker 5: next steps that aren't next up. Like two years ago,
Speaker 5: you and I would have been going on, man, these
Speaker 5: are the guys you know.
Speaker 4: So yes, absolutely.
Speaker 2: Now this format you play best ball and then you
Speaker 2: play alternate shot. I have some statistics that are gonna
Speaker 2: illuminate a bit of an issue for the alternate shot.
Speaker 5: For it is this for these two guys, For these
Speaker 5: two guys, gosh, okay, go ahead.
Speaker 2: Nick Dunlap is last on the PGA Tour and strokes
Speaker 2: skate off the tee.
Speaker 5: Is that like one sixty six? Is that where he's
Speaker 5: at is at the ranking, It's like all the way down?
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, okay, okay.
Speaker 2: And Gordon Sargeant, who will be hitting approaches from Nick
Speaker 2: dunlaps drives, is last in strokes gate approach.
Speaker 5: That's actually good. This is what I want to see.
Speaker 6: Oh, they played great, That's unbelievable.
Speaker 5: So this is your going from the the worst driver
Speaker 5: the goof ball on the PGA Tour to the worst
Speaker 5: iron player. Oh it's a dream.
Speaker 8: I hope they win the same wish they had and
Speaker 8: start vote thing we could vote on who to show Well,
Speaker 8: there are there are other teams that I think we
Speaker 8: should vote for on featured groups.
Speaker 6: But that has so good.
Speaker 2: I cannot wait to follow the shot trails of Alternate.
Speaker 5: Shot Andy, Andy, I gotta say this. You know how
Speaker 5: we've been doing a lot of like the behind the
Speaker 5: scenes golf stuff recently, like the PGA Tours got into
Speaker 5: it at the Players. I need an hour documentary of
Speaker 5: how Zurich teams happen, Like who's Collin who? Like what
Speaker 5: is it a text? Is it agents? Like? How are
Speaker 5: the even Brooks and Shane Lowry like, where did that
Speaker 5: conversation come from?
Speaker 6: Well, I can I can tell you how one team
Speaker 6: on the notables list came together. I heard, I heard
Speaker 6: how How Tong Jordan Smith pairing came together. They are
Speaker 6: frequent practice round guys on the DP World Tour last year,
Speaker 6: and apparently how Tong is just the most hilarious person
Speaker 6: to ever live. So when it came time I need
Speaker 6: a Zurich partner, Jordan Smith had one answer in mind.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'd love to play with Hall Tong league. Absolutely,
Speaker 5: But I mean, I'm sure there's some within here that
Speaker 5: you're like, wait, I mean again, keep reading, Andy, what
Speaker 5: else we got?
Speaker 4: Well, it's the last one.
Speaker 2: We're on the last one, ready, Aaron Rye and sayth sigala.

Speaker 6: I think maybe it's not not notable.
Speaker 5: Yes, that's kind of what I think too, PG. I'm
Speaker 5: kind of with you.
Speaker 2: Well, does our one and Done league have picks?
Speaker 6: I have one that that I do have to make one?
Speaker 6: Uh No, the Frida Egg One and Done does not
Speaker 6: have one.
Speaker 5: Because I like them. I like the McCarty my I
Speaker 5: think McCarty Meisner team this week a lot in terms
Speaker 5: of winning.
Speaker 6: I also will just throw out not notable because it
Speaker 6: was way to add to the field America's Sweetheart Sedarsian Yellow,
Speaker 6: Miraju and Ryan Bryan Gerard.
Speaker 5: Well, that's kind of a nasty team. Nasty teams. How
Speaker 5: by the way, how do you guys mess up his
Speaker 5: first name every day? Not?
Speaker 6: You guys don't to me every show suitor over there.
Speaker 5: And say it to me. You say his first name, Andy,
Speaker 5: how do you say it? There you go, You're done.
Speaker 5: You never have to think about it again. You nailed it,
Speaker 5: You got it. It's as straight as hell. I'd love

Speaker 2: Our friend, who pointed out the dunlap sergeant pairing titled
Speaker 2: this one fall back option still with an eye on Sydney,
Speaker 2: Sweetey can s overcome being Gerard's fall back replacement.
Speaker 4: After Smiley denied.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna tell you that, I'm a said Arshan and
Speaker 5: Gerard might win this thing running away. I'm all about
Speaker 5: this team too.
Speaker 6: Well. And then and then you have the Gentleman in
Speaker 6: training and R and P. Who's Andy's other favorite team?
Speaker 2: PITTSPA, Pitts Spag Junior uh Jacob Scovel.
Speaker 4: I thought we were and erguard Patterson Peterson.
Speaker 5: There's some weirdo. I mean, like Jeff Ogilvey's playing well that.
Speaker 6: That is the thirstiest effort to get back in the
Speaker 6: Peacup good graces that I've.
Speaker 5: John Jonathan Bird's playing, I think, I mean, I'm not
Speaker 5: just like crazy.
Speaker 2: How about the peacup pairing of Pendy and Mackenzie Hughes
Speaker 2: got it?
Speaker 6: You know, can't put up a bagel in it in
Speaker 6: a four day is there?
Speaker 5: I think I think Pendy shall like sixty three on
Speaker 5: Sunday and uh so maybe he's coming in training.
Speaker 6: That's that's what I like to hear right there, Shane
Speaker 6: Penny's trending.
Speaker 2: That's the whole foursome of of Pea Cup players because
Speaker 2: you got Kevin you and Tom Kem.
Speaker 5: And brands In Seneker's playing as well right in this thing.
Speaker 6: Yeah, oh my god, it's it. That's a foursome. Ogilvy
Speaker 6: Davis and Keith Mitchell and Branson Edeker literal peacock.
Speaker 5: What do the captains have to play with each other for?
Speaker 6: Like that?
Speaker 4: You don't even scouting They let go out and scouting days.
Speaker 6: He remember when DL three played with uh Will Sours
Speaker 6: Tours and Cam Young. Yeah, it's I thought it was.
Speaker 6: That's that's what it's all about, right there.
Speaker 5: Do you think do you think we got done? You
Speaker 5: think Davis was like, uh, well, they're really good. They're
Speaker 5: good at golf, yep, just like I thought they'd be
Speaker 5: really good. Hit it far like, uh scouting?
Speaker 4: You know what are you scouting?
Speaker 5: It's a first round. It's the first round of a
Speaker 5: golf tournament. Like, I mean, like they shot sixty eight
Speaker 5: or seventy three or whatever, right.
Speaker 2: Like, if they shoot seventy two, are you are they
Speaker 2: scratching them off the list?
Speaker 4: Like you know what? This guy can't can't hack it is, I.
Speaker 5: Mean broke his club, Like, I mean, what are you
Speaker 5: look at? It's like you're playing with the boss or something.
Speaker 5: You just try not to make just try not to
Speaker 5: make an ass out of yourself. That's the whole point.
Speaker 6: Bad Thursday at the window. Can't put him on the
Speaker 6: Peacup team.
Speaker 5: Sorry, boys, shot too over, missed a couple of shorts.
Speaker 2: You gotta cook uh on some on some on some
Speaker 2: walk up music we did.
Speaker 6: Brendan's Gonna come back a second year in a row.
Speaker 6: BP comes off a trip into the thunderdome of walk
Speaker 6: up music that you and I are just cooking out.
Speaker 2: How about the pairing of Rafa Campos and Toasty.
Speaker 5: You know, I was thinking about who would be the
Speaker 5: most fun person to put with Toasty and I couldn't
Speaker 5: quite come up with somebody. You know what's funny, I
Speaker 5: feel like I think it's Sergio. I think Toasty Sergio
Speaker 5: is the best possible team. I think that's like my dream.
Speaker 6: And well, Rafakopos might be the most like mild mannered
Speaker 6: person in the world. I was trying to think, could
Speaker 6: you go complete polar oppice? Yes, yeah, yeah, and I
Speaker 6: think we might have it here.
Speaker 4: Apparently a great letter writer.
Speaker 5: I gotta I gotta be honest. If there was a
Speaker 5: draft of ten players in the world to play a
Speaker 5: team event with, I think Toasty's in my top ten,
Speaker 5: and he might be in my top five.
Speaker 6: Well, you know it's he's getting it out there.
Speaker 5: Scared.
Speaker 4: You never have to worry about him not playing aggressively.
Speaker 5: I'd love to be on the first T and step
Speaker 5: Luis and be like, hey man, I think it might
Speaker 5: be five would just to see what he did to me.
Speaker 5: Might fight on one T.
Speaker 2: You know, what you do is you say Toasty, I'm
Speaker 2: hitting first, because you know he's gonna be hitting driver
Speaker 2: every hole.
Speaker 5: Of course, of course you.
Speaker 6: Gotta just what I don't need.
Speaker 2: You blasted it into the water when before me, before
Speaker 2: I'm hit.
Speaker 5: Yeah, let me just hit what I want to hit.
Speaker 6: There's some terrible teams in this well on a on
Speaker 6: another good team. Note, I am at least moderately intrigued
Speaker 6: by the Penji Matt Wallace team, kind of in there.
Speaker 2: Out on Matt Wallace because that's the time he like
Speaker 2: undressed this caddy.
Speaker 6: Yeah, didn't there's a.
Speaker 5: Long time ago, hasn't he Didn't he win recently?
Speaker 4: Yeah? He did on the DP World.
Speaker 5: Yes, I feel like he won. I feel like he's
Speaker 5: won recently. Yeah.
Speaker 4: The uh how about does this pairing do it for you?
Speaker 5: Oh god, I just headed up.
Speaker 2: There's some ridiculous ones in here. I like the boiler
Speaker 2: Maker Shank Dunk and pairing obviously.
Speaker 6: Garrity and Matt Coocher. Do you think Cooch is gonna wait?
Speaker 5: Come on, that's what? Why?
Speaker 6: Andy?
Speaker 5: How is this not an hour show like show me?
Speaker 5: Gary Yigo and Matt Coocher making this decision?
Speaker 4: It's insane.
Speaker 5: Do you think Matt Coocher gets to the first t
Speaker 5: on whatever first practice day day it is Tuesday, Wednesday,
Speaker 5: He's like, oh, my partner is like that's like his
Speaker 5: look now that's interesting, Like do you think that happens?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got I wonder if he introduces himself.
Speaker 6: Well, it's a shame that Grazerman has a partner already
Speaker 6: for this because the Kutcher Grazer pairing, I mean, it
Speaker 6: was right there.
Speaker 4: Mentors Mentors is rock there.
Speaker 2: You know what I My favorite, uh favorite pairing is
Speaker 2: the former Problem Team. Who was that Nick Watney and
Speaker 2: Charlie Hoffman.
Speaker 5: Oh Man, in this field I cannot be a real team.
Speaker 5: That's not a real team. That's not a real team
Speaker 5: Nick Watney and Hoffman. I mean, you know, like I love,
Speaker 5: like I would love for Rollout to be on this podcast,
Speaker 5: Like what is he gonna say to these things?
Speaker 6: This field can't exist like this? It's can't this? You
Speaker 6: got a two year exemption for winning this? Are we kidding?
Speaker 6: Are we kidding?
Speaker 5: What about Austin Cook and Jason Duffner?
Speaker 4: Come on, like.
Speaker 6: Come on, can't I it hasn't been this bad before.
Speaker 6: It just hasn't like I looked back at the past fields.
Speaker 6: It has not been this bad.
Speaker 5: Hey, let me let me ask you guys a question.
Speaker 5: Take a guess at what Jason Duffner's OWGR.
Speaker 4: Is like eighteen hundred.
Speaker 6: I was gonna say it's definitely in the four digits.
Speaker 5: One three and forty eight in the world. His last
Speaker 5: four stars Puerto Rico mc amx mc RSM mc Sanderson,
Speaker 5: Farbes MC T thirty at pro cores and then mc
Speaker 5: mcsin his whole page, his whole page going back to
Speaker 5: twenty four is all EMC's one seventy fifth finish and
Speaker 5: at T thirty.
Speaker 2: I mean and Austin Cook probably is the one that
Speaker 2: got in the field and then asked Duffner Austin Cook
Speaker 2: since twenty twenty three, So twenty three he missed fourteen
Speaker 2: of twenty five cuts, had won top ten finish. In
Speaker 2: twenty four he missed seventeen of twenty four cuts that's
Speaker 2: sent to finish. In twenty five he missed six. He
Speaker 2: missed sixteen of twenty eight cuts.
Speaker 4: That's no top ten finishes.
Speaker 6: How is how is this event giving out full exemptions
Speaker 6: next cup points to the winner? How is this real?
Speaker 5: How is this like?
Speaker 6: These guys don't play in full field events.
Speaker 5: I'm telling you, Rory and Scott, he should have gotten
Speaker 5: together and said, let's go win, let's add it to
Speaker 5: the Wikipedia page.
Speaker 6: I don't know if those two need to. But if
Speaker 6: you're looking around, there are guys. Tony is like a
Speaker 6: great example who's in this field at least? But there
Speaker 6: are guys, okay, there are guys that could use a
Speaker 6: win totally that are like real players. Tom Kim is here,
Speaker 6: Tony Finow's here, But there are other guys in that
Speaker 6: ilk that need a win, and you're just not even
Speaker 6: gonna show up.
Speaker 5: Like, are there twenty teams that can win this? No?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 5: Like ten?
Speaker 2: I mean, actually I think there are, because I don't
Speaker 2: think there are any any great teams.
Speaker 6: Well, that's that's true?
Speaker 5: Is that the pretty dirty?
Speaker 4: This should be a corn tour event?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, I'd tell I would take this all day,
Speaker 5: bring it on, nitties, and I would love it.
Speaker 6: And then, just to wrap it up, it just hurts
Speaker 6: to see your your heroes get old. It's kind of like,
Speaker 6: you know, Michael Jordan on the Wizard that Ryan Palmer
Speaker 6: is is just with chan Kim the Tuugh vote.
Speaker 4: The tuk vote is asking you mean a hero of
Speaker 4: the players?
Speaker 6: A hero of this?
Speaker 5: He played, played play with Jordan, he played with Scotty.
Speaker 5: Who else you play with?
Speaker 6: Bubba rom Rom, he played with like everybody, I'll do it.
Speaker 5: I'll do an hour doc on that as well. Give
Speaker 5: me all the docs on how these teams got Well,
Speaker 5: is it.
Speaker 6: The story that like he would just ask super early
Speaker 6: and everybody just be like yeah, I mean that's.
Speaker 5: That's like when you're in ninth grade and you tell
Speaker 5: like your best girlfriend, like if we don't have anybody
Speaker 5: to date, let's go to prom together. Yeah, but it's yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, or or if you know, if you're you're just trying,
Speaker 2: you want to bring someone and you're worried about competition,

Speaker 6: year from like twenty twenty two or whatever it was
Speaker 6: when Scotty was like, yeah, Ryan asked, and that I
Speaker 6: called like six other guys and nobody wanted to play.
Speaker 6: So I just told him Yeah.
Speaker 5: Was that Bubba? Was that Bubba that said that?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 6: I thought it was Scotty, but it could it could
Speaker 6: have been Bubba too. I don't I.
Speaker 2: Feel like Bubba that happened for Bubba with something else.

Speaker 6: bring this up because we did. You know, you guys retired.
Speaker 6: It was midnight, Scotland tied. But I'm gonna get up
Speaker 6: on my soapbox now because I should have brought this

Speaker 6: an asterisk on Stu's win because Bland he wasn't there,
Speaker 6: and and Bill Lee Westwood. I think I kind of like,
Speaker 6: I love Stu. I watched you to be the Ryder
Speaker 6: Cup captain.

Speaker 5: been checking the like Apple News lately, but they may
Speaker 5: have things that they're focusing their attention on that's a
Speaker 5: little bit bigger than the Champs Tour schedule.
Speaker 6: For five seconds, it looked like Lee Westwood and Blandy
Speaker 6: We're going to be available to play at the concession
Speaker 6: last week.
Speaker 5: It's a fair point.
Speaker 2: The issue is the magic sticks are are soon. I mean,
Speaker 2: Poulter's got to be near in the age of Champs Tour.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's true, Poulter. Poulter might be a real problem
Speaker 6: in all caps on the Champs Tour, Sketcher's World champions Cup,

Speaker 2: and Hanson.
Speaker 4: Jamie Donaldson, that's what I got.

Speaker 6: times in my Champions Tour research.
Speaker 4: To be a plane on the Legends Tour.
Speaker 5: Hometown hero coming in for this thing.
Speaker 4: Yeah. So that's that's my event of the week.
Speaker 2: Other last event, last but not least, we've got the
Speaker 2: DP World Tour, the Volvo China Open.

Speaker 2: Eugenio Chakara, M J. Dafou, uh Hoshino, Nah Rosner, and Ashon.
Speaker 5: Wu okay no no p huh no p.
Speaker 2: Apparently you watch that on Golf Channel. You figure out
Speaker 2: the times and wherever you're streaming time in the middle
Speaker 2: of the night.
Speaker 5: You figured it out. You can Google, you got you
Speaker 5: got chat GBT, figured out yourselves. You're fine.
Speaker 2: I think that does it for today. You got any
Speaker 2: party thoughts? Oh, I'll give you a minute to talk
Speaker 2: about your whole one?
Speaker 5: I mean that? Yeah, I mean I made a hole
Speaker 5: in one today. That was fine. I texted you what
Speaker 5: I texted I made. It's like I made a hole
Speaker 5: in one one.
Speaker 4: Would you have rather had a whole out eagle or
Speaker 4: a hole one?
Speaker 5: So my club in Connecticut that I'm wearing this this
Speaker 5: Brooklyn hat right now, shout out. They do on your locker.
Speaker 5: It's kind of the old school metal lockers, you know,
Speaker 5: with like the holes in them that are cool. And
Speaker 5: if you make a hole in one, they put a
Speaker 5: plaque on your locker of the hole in one. Okay,
Speaker 5: And so this is my first of my club, so
Speaker 5: I'll get the plaque on the locker. So I'm gonna
Speaker 5: say the ace because they don't do that for a
Speaker 5: whole lot of eagle.
Speaker 2: But uh, that's disappointing. You might need to send a
Speaker 2: letter to the club.
Speaker 5: I mean, it's a lot of like metal and engravement
Speaker 5: and stuff you're having to do. But uh, you know,
Speaker 5: we just opened the club not too long ago, and
Speaker 5: so it's it's it's a good start to the season
Speaker 5: for your boy.
Speaker 4: That's a great, great start of the year. Peach. How
Speaker 4: did you play at the foot at wing foot?
Speaker 6: Uh? You know, I had a great day. Us g A,
Speaker 6: I have a I have a gin question mark.

Speaker 2: years ago about what is it energy? You say it
Speaker 2: and I'm I don't know because everybody calls it jin.
Speaker 5: I say Jens.
Speaker 6: I think they said jin. But now you know that
Speaker 6: was that was, you know, fourteen hours ago, and I'm tired,
Speaker 6: so I could be misremembering this. Uh rip up, the
Speaker 6: rough was not all the way up. They only you
Speaker 6: played you play east or west west? Oh nic So
Speaker 6: it was great. I had a great day. So now
Speaker 6: as I as I said on Twitter, I can now
Speaker 6: if the Golf Galaxy fitting video did not tip you
Speaker 6: off to me not being very good at golf. I'm
Speaker 6: happy that my scores will now be publicly posted so
Speaker 6: everybody can can understand where I'm at in this journey.
Speaker 4: What'd you fire?
Speaker 6: I shot a ninety four comes up. That's great, pretty good,
Speaker 6: that's pretty good.
Speaker 5: Pretty good on west Man West is tough.
Speaker 6: Pretty good made birdie. So that's that's all I'm looking for.
Speaker 6: Uh what sixteen part part five?
Speaker 5: Nice?
Speaker 6: Good, take it, take it. But it was great. I
Speaker 6: had a great day first time, PJ.
Speaker 5: They play that as a part four in the US Open.
Speaker 5: So good par but we'll give you the birdie on
Speaker 5: this show.
Speaker 6: Hey man, you know, I have no expectation that in
Speaker 6: twenty twenty eight I will be in a place to
Speaker 6: potentially qualify for the US Open, So I myself personally
Speaker 6: am counting it. But I had a great day, and
Speaker 6: uh now I'm just I'm happy that everybody can go
Speaker 6: make fun of me on the internet for sucking at golf,
Speaker 6: because I do that enough myself. So now it's a group,
Speaker 6: everybody's involved, it's a group game.
Speaker 4: Now the reality that every golfer needs.
Speaker 6: To Yeah, you were, you were, you were lecturing me
Speaker 6: about this.
