12
00:00:49,034 --> 00:00:53,835
But tonight's episode, we've got the fall
series once again, folks.
13
00:00:53,835 --> 00:00:55,354
We talked a little bit about it last week.
14
00:00:55,354 --> 00:00:57,570
We got a little bit more of a preview this
week.
15
00:00:58,049 --> 00:01:00,789
We've also got the upcoming Fortinet
Championship.
16
00:01:00,929 --> 00:01:07,010
That is the that was, trying to think of the
technology company's name from last year that
17
00:01:07,010 --> 00:01:11,564
it was because I got into this whole thing as
to, like, the pronunciation of it.
18
00:01:11,564 --> 00:01:12,864
But this year, it's Fortinet.
19
00:01:13,004 --> 00:01:13,805
Pretty easy.
20
00:01:14,045 --> 00:01:15,724
But that's in Napa Valley, folks.
21
00:01:15,724 --> 00:01:19,724
So people are gonna be going to the French
Laundry, drinking their wines, having a great
22
00:01:19,724 --> 00:01:20,224
time.
23
00:01:20,444 --> 00:01:25,230
We've got the upcoming LIV Golf Chicago, which
seems like it's gonna be a little bit more
24
00:01:25,230 --> 00:01:26,270
stressful of an event.
25
00:01:26,270 --> 00:01:27,630
We're gonna talk about that.
26
00:01:27,630 --> 00:01:29,469
Then we've got the Swannies style segment.
27
00:01:29,469 --> 00:01:34,510
So, folks, make sure to hang on for us until
the Swannies style segment because we got a
28
00:01:34,510 --> 00:01:38,350
huge announcement that is going to be the
Swannies style segment.
29
00:01:38,350 --> 00:01:39,935
So this is gonna be different.
30
00:01:41,435 --> 00:01:42,795
I'll just give you a little hint right now.
31
00:01:42,795 --> 00:01:46,395
It might be a giveaway, and there might be some
details around that.
32
00:01:46,395 --> 00:01:52,555
And there might be a new promo code as well
that gets you even more money off at
33
00:01:52,555 --> 00:01:54,510
swannies.co.
34
00:01:54,510 --> 00:01:55,790
So make sure to hang on to there.
35
00:01:55,790 --> 00:01:57,969
And then we've got Trot Golfer segment.
36
00:01:58,030 --> 00:02:00,129
I am dedicating this one to you, my man.
37
00:02:00,189 --> 00:02:02,609
It is the Bernard Langer anchoring.
38
00:02:03,230 --> 00:02:06,349
Absolutely anchoring segment tonight.
39
00:02:06,349 --> 00:02:08,294
We're finally gonna dive into this.
40
00:02:08,294 --> 00:02:14,215
This has been a lifelong mission for Trot
Golfer, with Bernard Langer, and it was kinda
41
00:02:14,215 --> 00:02:14,534
cool.
42
00:02:14,534 --> 00:02:19,675
Trot was getting into it with Bob Estes, which
was pretty interesting on the X.
43
00:02:20,534 --> 00:02:27,830
You gotta put Bernard Langer's face on Will
Ferrell's for the movie cover for Anchorman,
44
00:02:28,449 --> 00:02:30,469
and, like, put that up for the promo.
45
00:02:30,530 --> 00:02:31,169
Oh my god.
46
00:02:31,169 --> 00:02:32,150
That's great.
47
00:02:32,449 --> 00:02:32,930
Yeah.
48
00:02:32,930 --> 00:02:33,169
Yeah.
49
00:02:33,169 --> 00:02:36,069
You gotta put That's gonna be the cover
tomorrow.
50
00:02:36,344 --> 00:02:37,391
Oh, wait a second.
51
00:02:37,391 --> 00:02:38,277
I see that.
52
00:02:38,277 --> 00:02:39,458
That's gonna be great.
53
00:02:39,458 --> 00:02:40,844
Way to go, Buttsy.
54
00:02:41,064 --> 00:02:41,305
Yeah.
55
00:02:41,305 --> 00:02:42,764
That's what a start.
56
00:02:43,064 --> 00:02:43,384
Alright.
57
00:02:43,384 --> 00:02:49,319
Let's get into the fall series because this
whole thing, I've kind of as I've looked into
58
00:02:49,319 --> 00:02:53,719
this more and more and more, and I had an
interview that is gonna be coming out with
59
00:02:53,719 --> 00:02:57,639
Parker McLachlin, short game chef, PGA Tour
winner, so on and so forth.
60
00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,239
But now he's like a short game guru.
61
00:02:59,239 --> 00:03:03,865
But he was a guy that literally he wasn't one
of these top players.
62
00:03:03,865 --> 00:03:04,104
Right?
63
00:03:04,104 --> 00:03:08,905
So he's one of these guys that was hanging on
to his card just trying to make it to another
64
00:03:08,905 --> 00:03:09,405
year.
65
00:03:09,465 --> 00:03:12,604
You know, that one win was huge for him.
66
00:03:12,905 --> 00:03:16,580
But this fall series is kinda like, it's time.
67
00:03:16,580 --> 00:03:22,500
It's the proving ground for the new talent so
that they can actually get in an event or two
68
00:03:22,500 --> 00:03:28,840
and potentially win because a lot of the top
guys are not playing in these weeks.
69
00:03:29,060 --> 00:03:33,914
And, partially, I like the fact that and I'm
gonna give the tour some credit here.
70
00:03:34,055 --> 00:03:38,875
I like the fact that the tour has stopped the,
carryover season.
71
00:03:39,254 --> 00:03:42,689
So it's no longer the fall series counts
towards next year.
72
00:03:42,849 --> 00:03:45,510
Now the fall series is just in and of itself.
73
00:03:46,129 --> 00:03:52,290
And that part of it, I actually really like now
that this isn't part of the FedEx Cup points
74
00:03:52,290 --> 00:03:53,270
for next year.
75
00:03:53,330 --> 00:03:58,629
It does help with the, like, top ten for the
Aon Next.
76
00:03:59,625 --> 00:04:04,264
So that is if anybody's not familiar with the
Aon Next 10, which that just sounds like a
77
00:04:04,264 --> 00:04:07,384
video game, that is how people It
78
00:04:07,384 --> 00:04:07,864
does.
79
00:04:07,864 --> 00:04:10,604
It's how players get into the Signature Series
events.
80
00:04:11,305 --> 00:04:18,740
It's like the top ten points winners or points
I don't know how you put it, but they have
81
00:04:18,740 --> 00:04:21,959
points, right, for the FedEx Cup and so forth.
82
00:04:22,899 --> 00:04:24,819
But they'll gain points this fall.
83
00:04:24,819 --> 00:04:28,339
That's gonna help them heading into next season
Signature Series events.
84
00:04:28,339 --> 00:04:30,164
So that's the only thing it's gonna help with.
85
00:04:30,164 --> 00:04:34,024
Doesn't help towards the FedEx Cup rankings or
anything like that for 2025.
86
00:04:34,644 --> 00:04:40,745
So I've kind of relooked at this where, you
know, Parker and a lot of other PGA Tour guys,
87
00:04:40,884 --> 00:04:45,689
like Kevin Streelman, for instance, look at the
Signature Series events very negatively.
88
00:04:46,149 --> 00:04:50,149
It's not something that's gonna help the
broader PGA Tour.
89
00:04:50,149 --> 00:04:55,269
It's only going to help the top seventy
players, let's say, or seventy-two is the
90
00:04:55,269 --> 00:04:56,889
minimum for next year.
91
00:04:57,404 --> 00:05:03,324
So my question to you, Buttsy, with all of that
being said, what's your take on this little
92
00:05:03,324 --> 00:05:04,045
fall series?
93
00:05:04,045 --> 00:05:09,004
Do you like this that it's almost like the new
talent or the guys towards the bottom of the
94
00:05:09,004 --> 00:05:10,225
PGA Tour rankings?
95
00:05:10,285 --> 00:05:11,939
This is like their season now.
96
00:05:12,660 --> 00:05:15,080
You know, I liken it to baseball.
97
00:05:15,220 --> 00:05:15,720
Right?
98
00:05:16,660 --> 00:05:18,279
Baseball has three tiers.
99
00:05:18,740 --> 00:05:20,500
They have well, they have four tiers.
100
00:05:20,500 --> 00:05:20,899
Yeah.
101
00:05:20,899 --> 00:05:23,560
Single A, Double A, Triple A.
102
00:05:23,939 --> 00:05:28,074
And then you get called up and, like and then
and then even after you get called up, you
103
00:05:28,074 --> 00:05:31,514
gotta you gotta really earn your spot to stay
in the fucking big leagues.
104
00:05:31,514 --> 00:05:31,754
Yeah.
105
00:05:31,754 --> 00:05:32,875
You can go back and forth.
106
00:05:32,875 --> 00:05:34,975
You can get DFA'd as well.
107
00:05:35,435 --> 00:05:40,714
And I'm not saying I agree with what they're
doing, but if you look at it through that
108
00:05:40,714 --> 00:05:42,314
optic, I don't know.
109
00:05:42,314 --> 00:05:44,819
Like, why is that such a big fucking deal?
110
00:05:44,959 --> 00:05:49,279
You have Korn Ferry, how many guys that
graduate from Korn Ferry Tour every year, this
111
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,800
would be a good stat to look up, keep their
card the following year?
112
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,000
What percentage of them?
113
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,600
Because I know when it used to be when you used
to just go get your PGA Tour card and you were,
114
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:02,475
like, on tour when you got through Q School, it
was, like, some stupid percentage, like, 95%
115
00:06:02,935 --> 00:06:03,814
didn't keep their card.
116
00:06:03,814 --> 00:06:04,214
Right?
117
00:06:04,214 --> 00:06:04,694
Yeah.
118
00:06:04,694 --> 00:06:09,574
I wonder what percentage of Korn Ferry
graduates that get a card, keep it the next
119
00:06:09,574 --> 00:06:10,074
year.
120
00:06:10,615 --> 00:06:14,960
And if that's a high number, maybe it's not
such a bad idea to then have another
121
00:06:15,100 --> 00:06:18,699
intermediary spot for them, like, on the PGA
Tour.
122
00:06:18,699 --> 00:06:23,180
They're on tour, but now you gotta earn your
way into the real big leagues, which is those
123
00:06:23,180 --> 00:06:24,480
signature series events.
124
00:06:24,620 --> 00:06:25,439
Makes sense.
125
00:06:25,500 --> 00:06:26,800
And here's the thing though.
126
00:06:27,259 --> 00:06:30,035
Like, Harrison Endycott won the Q School last
year.
127
00:06:30,035 --> 00:06:30,275
Right?
128
00:06:30,275 --> 00:06:34,675
Now I'm getting away from a little bit from the
Korn Ferry side, but from Q School and couldn't
129
00:06:34,675 --> 00:06:38,055
get like, couldn't play in a lot of these
events to start off the year.
130
00:06:38,194 --> 00:06:44,060
So, like, for somebody like him, it really
takes a long time, like, to get to the point to
131
00:06:44,060 --> 00:06:45,920
where you can play in some of these
tournaments.
132
00:06:46,459 --> 00:06:48,860
And that's,
133
00:06:49,819 --> 00:06:52,800
how do you get into the top 70 quickly?
134
00:06:53,259 --> 00:06:54,319
You gotta win.
135
00:06:54,814 --> 00:06:59,294
But, I mean, that's the problem with being a
new player on tour now is that all these
136
00:06:59,294 --> 00:07:05,694
signature series events and a lot of the other
events are kinda stacked in where a lot of the
137
00:07:05,694 --> 00:07:11,519
players can't get in that are from Q School,
from Korn Ferry, that are graduates and so
138
00:07:11,519 --> 00:07:12,019
forth.
139
00:07:12,319 --> 00:07:19,519
So it is tough for these guys to be able to go
and get into a signature series event,
140
00:07:19,519 --> 00:07:20,959
especially in the beginning of the year.
141
00:07:20,959 --> 00:07:26,435
So it kinda pushes them now towards those
secondary events, kinda like what you're
142
00:07:26,435 --> 00:07:27,394
saying, the tiers.
143
00:07:27,394 --> 00:07:33,394
You know, when there's a signature series event
sometime, there is a corresponding event that's
144
00:07:33,394 --> 00:07:41,770
happening down, gosh, in the Dominican Republic
or some of these other more exotic areas, I'll
145
00:07:41,770 --> 00:07:44,170
say, while those tournaments are going on.
146
00:07:44,170 --> 00:07:44,670
Right?
147
00:07:45,210 --> 00:07:50,009
That's for the lower, like, the lower-tier
players that are towards the bottom of the
148
00:07:50,009 --> 00:07:50,509
rankings.
149
00:07:51,035 --> 00:07:58,074
Now in addition to that, they also have this
fall series that they get to play in and kinda,
150
00:07:58,235 --> 00:08:04,074
you know, a lot of the top talent isn't playing
in these, so it really becomes more so for
151
00:08:04,074 --> 00:08:04,555
them.
152
00:08:04,555 --> 00:08:07,889
And I think the tour could brand it as such.
153
00:08:07,949 --> 00:08:09,970
Like, I just feel like there's so much
opportunity
154
00:08:10,509 --> 00:08:12,289
for them to something else.
155
00:08:12,349 --> 00:08:12,589
Yeah.
156
00:08:12,589 --> 00:08:15,169
Like, I mean, I just think of WWE.
157
00:08:15,229 --> 00:08:16,589
It's like WWE Next.
158
00:08:16,589 --> 00:08:18,829
It's like PGA Tour's future
159
00:08:19,714 --> 00:08:21,875
Proving Grounds or whatever you wanna call it.
160
00:08:21,875 --> 00:08:23,235
Like, I don't know.
161
00:08:23,235 --> 00:08:23,634
Yeah.
162
00:08:23,875 --> 00:08:25,395
I'm with you 100% on that.
163
00:08:25,395 --> 00:08:32,355
It just doesn't really feel like it's being
promoted properly or but when I looked at it,
164
00:08:32,355 --> 00:08:33,495
that's what it is.
165
00:08:33,634 --> 00:08:37,049
Like, that's what these next weeks are really
going to be about.
166
00:08:37,429 --> 00:08:42,710
And how many events do we have, like, where
they're trying to basically put their name in
167
00:08:42,710 --> 00:08:44,870
the sand to get into a signature event?
168
00:08:44,870 --> 00:08:46,490
Like, how many we got?
169
00:08:46,950 --> 00:08:48,389
For the fall series, no.
170
00:08:48,389 --> 00:08:49,850
There's more than just four.
171
00:08:49,965 --> 00:08:54,605
I mean, it pretty much runs through until
December, basically.
172
00:08:54,605 --> 00:09:00,465
So you got Procore, that's this week, then
you've got a week off for the Presidents Cup,
173
00:09:01,004 --> 00:09:05,170
then you've got, let's see, Sanderson Farms.
174
00:09:07,389 --> 00:09:07,710
Right?
175
00:09:07,710 --> 00:09:08,029
Yeah.
176
00:09:08,029 --> 00:09:10,769
Sanderson Farms in October, that first week of
October.
177
00:09:10,830 --> 00:09:14,049
Then we've got that new event in Black Desert
in Utah.
178
00:09:14,590 --> 00:09:15,070
That thing
179
00:09:15,070 --> 00:09:15,570
looks
180
00:09:15,950 --> 00:09:16,450
sick.
181
00:09:16,894 --> 00:09:19,054
I wanna play golf out there so bad, dude.
182
00:09:19,054 --> 00:09:19,554
Exactly.
183
00:09:20,014 --> 00:09:23,215
So that's gonna be interesting, of a golf
tournament.
184
00:09:23,215 --> 00:09:25,955
You know, Tony Finau's gotta play in that one.
185
00:09:26,495 --> 00:09:29,955
The Shriners Children's Open, a lot of guys
like to play in that.
186
00:09:30,950 --> 00:09:32,309
Then you've got Zozo.
187
00:09:32,309 --> 00:09:37,990
So Zozo is gonna be the first one that isn't
necessarily for those guys.
188
00:09:37,990 --> 00:09:42,470
So but that first group of tournaments,
Procore, 1, 2, 3, 4.
189
00:09:42,470 --> 00:09:44,284
I mean, you called it four.
190
00:09:44,985 --> 00:09:48,205
But then you get down to the Worldwide
Technology Championship.
191
00:09:48,825 --> 00:09:51,964
That's another one that's gonna be easier to
get into down in Cabo.
192
00:09:52,024 --> 00:09:53,725
That's at Tiger's course at Diamante.
193
00:09:54,105 --> 00:09:56,365
Then you got the Butterfield Bermuda
Championship.
194
00:09:56,504 --> 00:09:58,720
Once again, lot of guys can get into that.
195
00:09:58,779 --> 00:10:04,720
Then you've got the RSM Classic, with that one
in Sea Island.
196
00:10:05,100 --> 00:10:08,960
Now I know a lot of guys playing that, but then
you've got the Hero World Challenge.
197
00:10:09,019 --> 00:10:12,254
So, basically through November, you've got a
lot of opportunities.
198
00:10:12,254 --> 00:10:13,315
So let's count it up.
199
00:10:13,934 --> 00:10:18,335
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.
200
00:10:18,335 --> 00:10:21,054
So you got 7 tournaments for these
201
00:10:21,054 --> 00:10:21,715
young guys.
202
00:10:22,350 --> 00:10:23,409
Is there a bar?
203
00:10:23,549 --> 00:10:25,809
Like, is there a defined bar?
204
00:10:26,190 --> 00:10:33,309
If I am in the top 20, like, if I average in
the top 20 for, let's say, I start in all those
205
00:10:33,309 --> 00:10:36,049
events, am I gonna get into the signature
series?
206
00:10:36,835 --> 00:10:38,355
Where's the where's the metric at?
207
00:10:38,355 --> 00:10:38,595
Right?
208
00:10:38,595 --> 00:10:39,475
Like, that's what I'm saying.
209
00:10:39,475 --> 00:10:45,095
So, like, it would be cool to know, that there
is kind of a benchmark that you need to hit
210
00:10:45,475 --> 00:10:49,955
being a lower-tier player to kinda get the
call-up, so to speak, and get into Signature
211
00:10:49,955 --> 00:10:51,894
events if you play well enough.
212
00:10:51,899 --> 00:10:56,059
Now I know that could be a win and then, you
know, 31st and then a you know what I mean?
213
00:10:56,059 --> 00:11:00,620
But the average, where do you need to be
sitting after all those starts to get into
214
00:11:00,620 --> 00:11:01,420
Signature Series?
215
00:11:01,420 --> 00:11:01,580
Yeah.
216
00:11:01,580 --> 00:11:02,059
So that's
217
00:11:02,059 --> 00:11:02,860
what it should be like.
218
00:11:02,860 --> 00:11:04,559
I totally agree with you.
219
00:11:04,860 --> 00:11:10,625
The one thing that I will say in addition to
that is when it comes to, and Trot Golfer
220
00:11:10,625 --> 00:11:13,345
mentions it here, a lot of veterans are playing
this week.
221
00:11:13,345 --> 00:11:16,644
Well, a lot of veterans play in this fall
series that are lower in the rankings.
222
00:11:16,784 --> 00:11:20,704
So I guess it's not technically just young
future talent.
223
00:11:20,704 --> 00:11:21,184
Right?
224
00:11:21,184 --> 00:11:27,179
It's also guys that are trying to get their
game back up in the rankings or get themselves
225
00:11:27,179 --> 00:11:31,820
back up in the rankings that have played well
in the past and are veterans on the PGA Tour
226
00:11:31,820 --> 00:11:36,139
like a Kevin Streelman, like a Camilo Villegas
last year.
227
00:11:36,139 --> 00:11:38,394
Because I was looking at some of the winners of
these events.
228
00:11:38,394 --> 00:11:38,894
Right?
229
00:11:39,034 --> 00:11:39,274
So
230
00:11:39,514 --> 00:11:39,675
Yeah.
231
00:11:39,835 --> 00:11:44,475
One, you've got Sahith Theegala won the
Fortinet Championship last year.
232
00:11:44,475 --> 00:11:46,095
That's where they're playing this week.
233
00:11:46,794 --> 00:11:48,495
That was his very first victory.
234
00:11:48,715 --> 00:11:50,329
So boom.
235
00:11:50,329 --> 00:11:50,889
Right there.
236
00:11:50,889 --> 00:11:53,709
Young talent gave him an opportunity to win.
237
00:11:53,850 --> 00:11:55,789
Then you've got Sanderson Farms.
238
00:11:56,009 --> 00:11:58,190
Luke List ends up winning that one.
239
00:11:58,250 --> 00:12:01,449
So a little bit of a veteran, I would say, out
of Luke List.
240
00:12:01,449 --> 00:12:04,269
Not maybe that that's probably not the best
example.
241
00:12:04,815 --> 00:12:08,674
Then you've got the Shriners, where Tom Kim
won.
242
00:12:08,815 --> 00:12:09,315
Okay?
243
00:12:09,615 --> 00:12:12,355
So that was somebody who's won previously.
244
00:12:12,495 --> 00:12:14,514
Then I'm gonna skip over the Zozo.
245
00:12:14,735 --> 00:12:18,355
The Worldwide Technology Championship, Erik van
Rooyen won.
246
00:12:19,549 --> 00:12:23,710
Then you've got Butterfield Bermuda
Championship, and this is where, once again,
247
00:12:23,710 --> 00:12:28,990
you kinda see that veteran player, Camilo
Villegas, wins after years of not winning on
248
00:12:28,990 --> 00:12:29,389
tour.
249
00:12:29,389 --> 00:12:35,044
So that was a great opportunity for him to
kinda get back into the fold, keep his PGA Tour
250
00:12:35,044 --> 00:12:35,524
card.
251
00:12:35,524 --> 00:12:40,725
And then at the RSM Classic, you had rookie
Ludvig Åberg win there.
252
00:12:40,725 --> 00:12:47,125
So it's kinda this mix between these old guys
as well as these young players.
253
00:12:47,125 --> 00:12:49,420
So there's gotta be something branding-wise.
254
00:12:49,420 --> 00:12:53,340
I haven't thought about it enough heading into
this conversation to be like, hey.
255
00:12:53,340 --> 00:12:58,160
This is what the PGA Tour should be promoting
this as.
256
00:12:59,100 --> 00:13:00,024
And I don't know.
257
00:13:00,024 --> 00:13:01,544
I guess I guess I like it.
258
00:13:01,544 --> 00:13:07,384
I just wonder at the end of the year, like, in
the signature events, are you really enhancing
259
00:13:07,384 --> 00:13:08,024
the product?
260
00:13:08,024 --> 00:13:13,225
Like, are those events really now showcasing
the players that are playing their absolute
261
00:13:13,225 --> 00:13:14,585
best, the best in the world?
262
00:13:14,585 --> 00:13:14,789
No.
263
00:13:14,870 --> 00:13:16,470
And that's who should be playing in those.
264
00:13:16,470 --> 00:13:18,970
Like, is that a good representation of that?
265
00:13:19,269 --> 00:13:19,750
I don't know.
266
00:13:20,789 --> 00:13:21,269
You know what?
267
00:13:21,269 --> 00:13:27,750
That goes back to the branding of this whole
thing, that it's the PGA Tour, but they could
268
00:13:27,750 --> 00:13:30,329
have it branded as something slightly
different.
269
00:13:30,524 --> 00:13:37,085
I think fall series doesn't it obviously, it's
seasonality, but as Run PMC says, it's silly
270
00:13:37,085 --> 00:13:39,425
season, which was Fall.
271
00:13:39,725 --> 00:13:42,764
Something I called it years back on the
podcast.
272
00:13:42,764 --> 00:13:48,929
I was like, silly season is upon us, and this
is what this fall series really is.
273
00:13:48,990 --> 00:13:54,509
And that was when it was carrying over into the
next year for FedEx Cup points, standings, and
274
00:13:54,509 --> 00:13:54,909
all that.
275
00:13:54,909 --> 00:14:01,325
That's why we had a Justin Thomas appearance
last year, and now he's, I don't, I believe, is
276
00:14:01,325 --> 00:14:02,784
he playing in it this week?
277
00:14:03,004 --> 00:14:03,804
I'm not quite sure.
278
00:14:03,804 --> 00:14:04,924
I'll have to double check.
279
00:14:04,924 --> 00:14:07,164
I mean, maybe they were super tricky about it.
280
00:14:07,164 --> 00:14:10,445
Maybe it's called the fall series, not only
because it's fall, but because it's for the
281
00:14:10,445 --> 00:14:11,804
players that fell off.
282
00:14:11,804 --> 00:14:12,544
You know?
283
00:14:12,605 --> 00:14:13,919
You ever think about that?
284
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:17,539
I love it.
285
00:14:18,159 --> 00:14:23,519
Like, they could call this, like I think what
we labeled this segment kinda as, and I don't
286
00:14:23,519 --> 00:14:28,240
even know if I mentioned that at the beginning
of introducing this segment, but the proving
287
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:29,865
grounds of what you said as well.
288
00:14:30,424 --> 00:14:33,245
And maybe it's a proving grounds, young versus
old.
289
00:14:34,105 --> 00:14:34,605
Yeah.
290
00:14:34,985 --> 00:14:42,105
Some sort of zest to it to let people know that
this is very much these guys battling it out to
291
00:14:42,105 --> 00:14:47,670
get back to the top or to have their first
chance at being, you know, one of the best.
292
00:14:51,090 --> 00:14:53,269
Now a quick word from our sponsor.
293
00:14:54,370 --> 00:14:56,470
Swannies is here with a fresh take.
294
00:14:56,470 --> 00:15:01,355
Performance-based materials are a given these
days, but if you're looking for the stretchiest
295
00:15:01,735 --> 00:15:07,815
and most lightweight pieces that deliver a look
that says I'm here for a good time, take a walk
296
00:15:07,815 --> 00:15:09,274
on the Swannies side.
297
00:15:09,470 --> 00:15:14,910
With fabric sourced from recycled plastics and
designs sourced from our very own weekend
298
00:15:14,910 --> 00:15:20,110
warriors, Swannies is looking out for both our
planet and those that need a little style to
299
00:15:20,110 --> 00:15:23,009
boost their drive another 15 yards.
300
00:15:23,454 --> 00:15:26,514
Premium looks from top to bottom at
swannies.co.
301
00:15:29,934 --> 00:15:30,334
Yeah.
302
00:15:30,334 --> 00:15:31,075
For sure.
303
00:15:31,214 --> 00:15:35,235
And Kyle over at Carpal and Kai's, this isn't
the presidential debate.
304
00:15:35,294 --> 00:15:36,480
Goddamn right, it's not.
305
00:15:37,039 --> 00:15:38,740
He said presidential debate.
306
00:15:40,159 --> 00:15:41,779
This isn't the presidential debate.
307
00:15:46,159 --> 00:15:48,320
And then Tri Golfer throws in there Sean
O'Hair.
308
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:49,059
What a journeyman.
309
00:15:49,199 --> 00:15:53,715
Like, these are some of the guys that you see
end up getting their careers back on track,
310
00:15:53,715 --> 00:15:55,254
being able to keep their cards.
311
00:15:55,475 --> 00:16:03,475
And I just I kinda endear this side to the
season because of the potential that's there.
312
00:16:03,475 --> 00:16:08,830
I'm with you that it's not the absolute best
teeing it up against each other.
313
00:16:09,289 --> 00:16:14,990
But is that I mean, we saw it funny.
314
00:16:15,370 --> 00:16:17,370
And I keep going back to this in my head.
315
00:16:17,370 --> 00:16:24,274
I'm like, the first part of the year, that
really was the golf year.
316
00:16:24,735 --> 00:16:25,235
Right?
317
00:16:25,294 --> 00:16:26,674
Kinda ended in June.
318
00:16:27,934 --> 00:16:30,174
Now all of a sudden, we're like, alright.
319
00:16:30,174 --> 00:16:34,195
Now we've got the rest of the guys that are on
tour.
320
00:16:35,539 --> 00:16:36,519
What do you think?
321
00:16:37,699 --> 00:16:38,759
You seem perplexed.
322
00:16:43,299 --> 00:16:48,440
I said, with the with the signature series
events, basically, by the time we get to June,
323
00:16:48,659 --> 00:16:50,100
golf season's pretty much over.
324
00:16:51,274 --> 00:16:51,595
Yeah.
325
00:16:51,595 --> 00:16:55,774
For, like, having the absolute top talent going
against each other.
326
00:16:55,915 --> 00:17:00,795
And I and I guess that's kinda by design, but
then from there, now we head into a season to
327
00:17:00,795 --> 00:17:03,215
where a lot of the top guys aren't gonna be
playing.
328
00:17:03,750 --> 00:17:03,830
No.
329
00:17:03,830 --> 00:17:04,809
We got the shitters.
330
00:17:04,950 --> 00:17:10,150
We got the shitters battling it out in the
coliseum, you know, trying to get back to the
331
00:17:10,150 --> 00:17:10,789
big leagues.
332
00:17:10,789 --> 00:17:11,830
That's what it is.
333
00:17:11,830 --> 00:17:13,190
That's what they're trying to make of it.
334
00:17:13,190 --> 00:17:13,349
Right?
335
00:17:13,349 --> 00:17:15,029
Like, there's no other explanation for it.
336
00:17:15,029 --> 00:17:15,190
No.
337
00:17:15,190 --> 00:17:19,154
And that's why I think they're doing it a
disservice by calling it the fall series on the
338
00:17:19,154 --> 00:17:20,054
PGA Tour.
339
00:17:20,914 --> 00:17:21,315
Yeah.
340
00:17:21,315 --> 00:17:23,954
You you I don't know.
341
00:17:23,954 --> 00:17:26,375
The PGA Tour is so nice.
342
00:17:26,595 --> 00:17:26,914
Right?
343
00:17:26,914 --> 00:17:29,174
They're not gonna I don't know.
344
00:17:29,234 --> 00:17:30,595
Everybody's feelings are hurt.
345
00:17:30,595 --> 00:17:31,315
Hey, shitters.
346
00:17:31,315 --> 00:17:31,875
Get over here.
347
00:17:31,875 --> 00:17:33,015
You're playing these events.
348
00:17:33,299 --> 00:17:34,740
You don't belong with the big boys.
349
00:17:34,740 --> 00:17:36,200
Here comes the bottom bucket.
350
00:17:37,460 --> 00:17:39,320
It's the bottom bottom bucket season.
351
00:17:40,019 --> 00:17:40,519
Yeah.
352
00:17:41,220 --> 00:17:41,619
Yeah.
353
00:17:41,619 --> 00:17:43,480
There's gotta be a better word for that.
354
00:17:44,820 --> 00:17:45,320
Yeah.
355
00:17:45,380 --> 00:17:46,680
We can work on that.
356
00:17:46,835 --> 00:17:48,674
I mean, proving grounds is pretty good.
357
00:17:48,674 --> 00:17:49,474
You know, that's what you're doing.
358
00:17:49,474 --> 00:17:49,954
You're Yeah.
359
00:17:49,954 --> 00:17:50,855
That is yourself.
360
00:17:51,075 --> 00:17:51,575
Yeah.
361
00:17:51,795 --> 00:17:52,035
Yeah.
362
00:17:52,035 --> 00:17:53,315
These are the proving grounds.
363
00:17:53,315 --> 00:17:53,555
Well
364
00:17:53,714 --> 00:17:56,055
Welcome to PGA Tour proving grounds.
365
00:17:56,674 --> 00:17:56,994
Yeah.
366
00:17:56,994 --> 00:17:58,595
Proving grounds event coming up.
367
00:17:58,595 --> 00:18:00,275
Oh, it's a proving grounds event?
368
00:18:00,275 --> 00:18:00,595
Okay.
369
00:18:00,595 --> 00:18:01,095
Cool.
370
00:18:01,470 --> 00:18:02,910
Who's, who's on the bubble?
371
00:18:02,910 --> 00:18:03,150
Right?
372
00:18:03,150 --> 00:18:06,450
Who needs to play well this week to secure a
spot in the signature event?
373
00:18:06,669 --> 00:18:08,509
Potentially change their lives playing for all.
374
00:18:08,509 --> 00:18:15,490
And the cash is like, what is a what is a win
in the fall series versus a signature event
375
00:18:15,950 --> 00:18:16,769
money wise?
376
00:18:17,455 --> 00:18:18,414
Big difference.
377
00:18:18,414 --> 00:18:18,914
Big.
378
00:18:20,174 --> 00:18:21,475
Like yeah.
379
00:18:21,535 --> 00:18:24,515
They're like I I mean, they're decent purses.
380
00:18:24,575 --> 00:18:29,555
I mean, the guys are still winning a mil, like,
in a mil and a half depending on the event.
381
00:18:29,615 --> 00:18:33,950
They're, like, between, I just saw one for $6
million.
382
00:18:33,950 --> 00:18:37,250
So this one this week is $6 million.
383
00:18:37,390 --> 00:18:40,450
Then you got $7.6 million at Sanderson Farms.
384
00:18:40,509 --> 00:18:43,029
Then at Black Desert, you got $7.5 million.
385
00:18:43,029 --> 00:18:44,684
Shriners is $7 million.
386
00:18:45,164 --> 00:18:49,985
Zozo is $8.5 million, but that's gonna be more
of your top guys on tour.
387
00:18:51,565 --> 00:18:57,085
$7.2 million for the Worldwide Technology, $6.9
million for Bermuda, and then it ends with the
388
00:18:57,085 --> 00:18:58,605
RSM at $8 million.
389
00:18:58,605 --> 00:19:03,740
So it's not like, that's pretty good purses,
but it's not Yep.
390
00:19:03,820 --> 00:19:05,019
The Signature Series events.
391
00:19:05,019 --> 00:19:05,740
You know what I mean?
392
00:19:05,740 --> 00:19:07,660
Or what do you and what do you win on Korn
Ferry?
393
00:19:07,660 --> 00:19:10,320
Like, $400,000, something like that?
394
00:19:10,380 --> 00:19:10,700
Yeah.
395
00:19:10,700 --> 00:19:11,200
Probably.
396
00:19:11,340 --> 00:19:12,704
I think around that.
397
00:19:13,105 --> 00:19:20,625
So so so they've created, you know, a gap
wedge, so to speak, in professional golf.
398
00:19:20,625 --> 00:19:21,744
Korn Ferry, you made it.
399
00:19:21,744 --> 00:19:24,144
You're playing with the big boys, but you're
not quite there.
400
00:19:24,144 --> 00:19:25,599
Like, you're not yeah.
401
00:19:25,599 --> 00:19:28,960
And you gotta stay you gotta stay up there to
play for all that money.
402
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:29,599
I don't know.
403
00:19:29,599 --> 00:19:30,419
I like it.
404
00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:34,819
I kinda I kinda like just what we've talked
about, Proving Grounds.
405
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:35,599
Yeah.
406
00:19:35,599 --> 00:19:36,240
Proving Grounds.
407
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:37,440
It's the season Proving Grounds.
408
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:37,919
Yeah.
409
00:19:37,919 --> 00:19:40,339
It's the season for guys to prove themselves.
410
00:19:41,095 --> 00:19:41,575
Yeah.
411
00:19:41,575 --> 00:19:45,974
And I think that's how it should be bring I
think you could actually build up something big
412
00:19:45,974 --> 00:19:46,794
around that.
413
00:19:48,454 --> 00:19:48,934
You could.
414
00:19:48,934 --> 00:19:50,794
You could create a whole lot of drama.
415
00:19:50,855 --> 00:19:53,115
You could cover journeymen.
416
00:19:53,414 --> 00:19:55,095
Oh, that's they're like, great story.
417
00:19:55,095 --> 00:20:01,619
Guy fell from grace all the way to a rookie
who's 20 years old and flew through fucking
418
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:06,960
Korn Ferry, and now he's got a chance to, you
know, rocket his career upward and and play
419
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:07,859
with the big boys.
420
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:08,400
Yeah.
421
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:08,900
Yeah.
422
00:20:10,304 --> 00:20:11,744
Kyle says one down, one to play.
423
00:20:11,744 --> 00:20:13,284
Do you press every time?
424
00:20:14,944 --> 00:20:15,424
I don't know.
425
00:20:15,424 --> 00:20:16,704
It depends on how much.
426
00:20:16,704 --> 00:20:21,904
That's why I couldn't be upset with you, but
see, when you pressed and then, good old
427
00:20:21,904 --> 00:20:24,224
Brandon decided to make a hole in one.
428
00:20:24,224 --> 00:20:25,845
Talked about that last week.
429
00:20:26,519 --> 00:20:27,000
Fucker.
430
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,480
And you didn't even consult me on it.
431
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,359
You just went ahead and pressed, and I was your
teammate on that.
432
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:33,720
And I'm just like, yeah.
433
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:35,000
It's what I would have done.
434
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,180
So I can't be mad at that.
435
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,440
It was a front left gap wedge par 3.
436
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:41,420
Like, absolutely.
437
00:20:42,335 --> 00:20:46,174
I'm definitely gonna have a—I knew I was gonna
have a birdie putt 9 out of 10 times.
438
00:20:46,174 --> 00:20:46,654
I'm impressed.
439
00:20:46,654 --> 00:20:48,174
That's the only reason I made the call.
440
00:20:48,174 --> 00:20:48,494
Yep.
441
00:20:48,494 --> 00:20:49,934
One of us is gonna birdie this hole.
442
00:20:49,934 --> 00:20:53,775
Did not see Brandon hooping it.
443
00:20:53,775 --> 00:20:56,069
I was the only one on the tee box that wasn't
excited.
444
00:20:56,149 --> 00:20:58,789
Everybody's jumping up and down on the back
just like yeah.
445
00:20:58,789 --> 00:21:00,309
You were just absolutely your mouth.
446
00:21:00,630 --> 00:21:02,230
I feel like your jaw dropped down.
447
00:21:02,230 --> 00:21:06,069
You're like one of those cartoons at that point
where, like, the jaw just drops down to their
448
00:21:06,069 --> 00:21:06,549
feet.
449
00:21:06,549 --> 00:21:08,889
You were just like, what the just happened?
450
00:21:09,365 --> 00:21:10,085
Couldn't believe it.
451
00:21:10,085 --> 00:21:13,125
I mean, I'll be happy for you later at dinner,
but not now.
452
00:21:13,125 --> 00:21:13,865
That's ridiculous.
453
00:21:14,164 --> 00:21:14,325
Yeah.
454
00:21:14,325 --> 00:21:15,305
That was ridiculous.
455
00:21:15,845 --> 00:21:20,744
Truck golfer says on the Korn Ferry Tour, it's
still a $1 million better than the Asher Tour.
456
00:21:20,965 --> 00:21:25,579
There's so many options for guys to play, but
once you get to the mini tours, that is just
457
00:21:25,579 --> 00:21:29,680
little legalized gambling on the golf course
between pros.
458
00:21:30,380 --> 00:21:30,880
Yeah.
459
00:21:31,259 --> 00:21:35,680
Golfer HD says, what if Scottie showed up in
disguise like an undercover boss?
460
00:21:35,900 --> 00:21:37,200
That'd be kinda cool.
461
00:21:37,804 --> 00:21:40,684
How's Scottie gonna fucking show up in
disguise?
462
00:21:40,684 --> 00:21:41,884
He's gonna make one golf swing.
463
00:21:41,884 --> 00:21:44,625
His back foot's gonna slip, and everybody's
gonna know it's him.
464
00:21:45,724 --> 00:21:47,025
Not like Mac O'Grady.
465
00:21:47,484 --> 00:21:51,105
Do you ever hear the stories of Mac O'Grady and
how crazy that dude was?
466
00:21:51,724 --> 00:21:52,224
No.
467
00:21:52,365 --> 00:22:00,200
So as the fables go, Mac O'Grady was this
incredible player, played right-handed and
468
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:02,119
Fuck.
469
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:02,519
Yeah.
470
00:22:02,519 --> 00:22:02,839
Yeah.
471
00:22:02,839 --> 00:22:05,960
And he was just as good left-handed as he was
right-handed.
472
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:14,194
He got banned for something, so then he changed
his name and showed up and played left-handed.
473
00:22:14,194 --> 00:22:15,335
So, okay.
474
00:22:15,474 --> 00:22:18,754
Little story time about Mac O'Grady, buddy.
475
00:22:18,754 --> 00:22:20,615
You talk to anybody about Mac O'Grady?
476
00:22:20,754 --> 00:22:22,034
Everybody's like the same thing.
477
00:22:22,034 --> 00:22:23,339
That guy was fucking nuts.
478
00:22:23,419 --> 00:22:25,179
But that guy knew the golf swing.
479
00:22:25,179 --> 00:22:25,659
Yeah.
480
00:22:25,659 --> 00:22:26,539
Pretty cool dude.
481
00:22:26,539 --> 00:22:29,179
Played a lot overseas as well.
482
00:22:29,179 --> 00:22:29,500
Alright.
483
00:22:29,500 --> 00:22:32,140
Let's keep it moving, keep it grooving here.
484
00:22:32,140 --> 00:22:38,079
Let's move into the next part of this, which is
the Fortinet Championship preview.
485
00:22:38,565 --> 00:22:42,825
So the Fortinet Championship, once again, this
is taking place in Napa Valley.
486
00:22:43,125 --> 00:22:48,804
So some of these guys that are showing up,
they're not showing up because this is the best
487
00:22:48,804 --> 00:22:50,105
golf course in the world.
488
00:22:50,964 --> 00:22:56,009
They're not showing up because it's the best
tournament with the best purse in the world.
489
00:22:56,009 --> 00:22:57,849
They're showing up because it's fucking Napa
Valley.
490
00:22:57,849 --> 00:23:01,150
And they're like, wife, you deserve a little
bit of wine.
491
00:23:01,450 --> 00:23:03,049
You deserve some French Laundry.
492
00:23:03,049 --> 00:23:07,945
French Laundry, that restaurant's gonna be
packed this week with bougie tour pros.
493
00:23:08,725 --> 00:23:13,445
So, yeah, that's what this tournament's all
about, and I kinda love the bougieness to it
494
00:23:13,445 --> 00:23:17,845
because they don't really push for crowds that
much out there.
495
00:23:17,845 --> 00:23:18,164
No.
496
00:23:18,164 --> 00:23:23,320
It's just like, come enjoy and enjoy the
bougieness that is Napa Valley.
497
00:23:23,539 --> 00:23:24,259
I love Napa.
498
00:23:24,259 --> 00:23:25,720
You ever been to Napa Valley?
499
00:23:27,059 --> 00:23:28,759
Outside my pay grade, friend.
500
00:23:28,820 --> 00:23:29,640
Never been.
501
00:23:29,700 --> 00:23:30,579
It's a great time.
502
00:23:30,579 --> 00:23:30,900
Yeah.
503
00:23:30,900 --> 00:23:36,795
You get in, I've heard of you get a driver that
you rent the car from the airport, and then you
504
00:23:36,795 --> 00:23:41,214
have to, like, sign them as an additional
driver, but they drive you to every winery.
505
00:23:42,474 --> 00:23:46,075
So you just get absolutely hammered, and then
they're driving the car for you.
506
00:23:46,075 --> 00:23:47,595
It's a whole service there in Napa.
507
00:23:47,595 --> 00:23:48,154
It's awesome.
508
00:23:48,154 --> 00:23:48,554
Wow.
509
00:23:48,554 --> 00:23:48,990
Yeah.
510
00:23:48,990 --> 00:23:49,429
It's pretty cool.
511
00:23:49,470 --> 00:23:51,250
Party bus, but, like, fancy.
512
00:23:51,549 --> 00:23:52,049
Basically.
513
00:23:52,429 --> 00:23:53,650
It pretty much is.
514
00:23:53,950 --> 00:23:57,869
Now, as we talk about the tournament, we do
have some players playing in this.
515
00:23:57,869 --> 00:23:58,369
Alright?
516
00:23:58,429 --> 00:24:04,125
So I don't want everybody to think that this is
just rookies on tour, guys who are veterans
517
00:24:04,184 --> 00:24:07,085
that haven't played good over the past year or
two.
518
00:24:07,704 --> 00:24:11,085
We do have Sahith Theegala as the defending
champion.
519
00:24:11,304 --> 00:24:12,845
He had to come back, obviously.
520
00:24:13,544 --> 00:24:18,365
You got Max Homa, who is the 2022 champion.
521
00:24:18,769 --> 00:24:19,089
Alright?
522
00:24:19,089 --> 00:24:19,909
Max Homa.
523
00:24:20,529 --> 00:24:22,210
He always plays well out there.
524
00:24:22,210 --> 00:24:24,629
That course just kinda seems to fit Max.
525
00:24:24,929 --> 00:24:27,909
Corey Conners, Wyndham Clark, Maverick McNeely.
526
00:24:28,849 --> 00:24:29,009
Oh, I
527
00:24:29,009 --> 00:24:29,909
like that.
528
00:24:29,970 --> 00:24:31,369
Watch out for Maverick McNeely.
529
00:24:31,889 --> 00:24:37,085
I didn't realize up until doing some research
around this one that he's playing on a medical
530
00:24:37,144 --> 00:24:37,644
exemption.
531
00:24:38,184 --> 00:24:43,065
So that's why we haven't really seen a whole
lot from Maverick, but he's had a pretty good
532
00:24:43,065 --> 00:24:44,045
year so far.
533
00:24:44,105 --> 00:24:45,184
So watch out for him.
534
00:24:45,305 --> 00:24:46,204
Golf his ball.
535
00:24:46,265 --> 00:24:48,444
Lucas Glover is playing.
536
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,200
I know you always have comments about Lucas
Glover.
537
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,460
What is your recommendation for Lucas to watch
out for this week?
538
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:56,880
What do you mean?
539
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:58,720
Like, what he's gonna do?
540
00:24:58,720 --> 00:24:59,039
No.
541
00:24:59,039 --> 00:25:00,880
Just, like, who should he watch out for?
542
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:06,924
Who could potentially yell at him and tell him
he's a terrible golfer?
543
00:25:07,065 --> 00:25:07,464
Yeah.
544
00:25:07,464 --> 00:25:13,304
His wife might fly out of the crowd with a
fucking ice skate screaming about Tonya Harding
545
00:25:13,304 --> 00:25:14,744
and just beat him in the legs.
546
00:25:14,744 --> 00:25:15,644
Like, who knows?
547
00:25:17,009 --> 00:25:18,470
He might get his legs beat.
548
00:25:19,009 --> 00:25:19,970
Wyndham by 8.
549
00:25:19,970 --> 00:25:20,789
There he is.
550
00:25:21,089 --> 00:25:22,289
He loves Wyndham.
551
00:25:22,289 --> 00:25:23,809
Trot's on my team now.
552
00:25:23,809 --> 00:25:24,049
No.
553
00:25:24,369 --> 00:25:31,775
Trot was not a big Wyndham guy until I kinda
convinced him that Wyndham is playing some good
554
00:25:31,775 --> 00:25:33,695
golf, and I think he's gonna be
555
00:25:33,695 --> 00:25:34,355
a good guy.
556
00:25:34,894 --> 00:25:36,575
You guys are terrible.
557
00:25:36,575 --> 00:25:39,394
Probably only stay at Wyndham Hotels too,
probably.
558
00:25:39,775 --> 00:25:40,515
Of course.
559
00:25:40,575 --> 00:25:42,674
I mean, where else would you stay?
560
00:25:43,090 --> 00:25:43,590
Yeah.
561
00:25:43,890 --> 00:25:44,869
He's got his name.
562
00:25:44,930 --> 00:25:46,390
I'd fucking stay in there.
563
00:25:47,170 --> 00:25:51,330
So let's go over just some notable players that
are in the field.
564
00:25:51,330 --> 00:25:53,570
We've went over Lucas Glover.
565
00:25:53,570 --> 00:25:55,090
Keith Mitchell is playing as well.
566
00:25:55,090 --> 00:25:56,505
Good old Cashmere Keith.
567
00:25:56,744 --> 00:25:58,125
Seems like a perfect fit.
568
00:25:58,184 --> 00:26:01,565
Cashmere sweaters, Napa Valley, wineries.
569
00:26:02,424 --> 00:26:05,884
You've got good old French Laundry for the
restaurant.
570
00:26:05,944 --> 00:26:07,305
Don't you think, like, Keith Mitchell.
571
00:26:07,305 --> 00:26:08,605
This just fits Keith.
572
00:26:08,744 --> 00:26:09,244
Yeah.
573
00:26:09,625 --> 00:26:10,125
Yeah.
574
00:26:10,184 --> 00:26:11,224
He's at home there.
575
00:26:11,224 --> 00:26:11,670
Yeah.
576
00:26:11,750 --> 00:26:14,809
I feel like Keith is, like, one of the most
comfortable guys on tour.
577
00:26:14,869 --> 00:26:15,369
Wow.
578
00:26:15,509 --> 00:26:16,570
That was aggressive.
579
00:26:16,950 --> 00:26:17,750
That was a push.
580
00:26:17,750 --> 00:26:21,470
I can't hear it because I got noise canceling
on, but
581
00:26:22,070 --> 00:26:22,390
past
582
00:26:22,549 --> 00:26:23,769
at the same time.
583
00:26:24,390 --> 00:26:26,090
You could die if you do that, I heard.
584
00:26:26,335 --> 00:26:28,494
You should probably look that up on ChatGPT.
585
00:26:28,494 --> 00:26:29,235
Just like
586
00:26:29,295 --> 00:26:30,654
like 10x relief.
587
00:26:30,654 --> 00:26:31,055
Sorry.
588
00:26:31,055 --> 00:26:31,375
Go on.
589
00:26:31,375 --> 00:26:33,775
We've got Patrick Rodgers playing as well.
590
00:26:33,775 --> 00:26:35,315
So let's go over the playing odds.
591
00:26:35,775 --> 00:26:38,095
Here's the betting odds for the top player.
592
00:26:38,095 --> 00:26:42,339
So Sahith Theegala is plus 1200 matched with
Wyndham Clark.
593
00:26:42,339 --> 00:26:42,820
Okay.
594
00:26:42,820 --> 00:26:45,400
Those are your top two this week.
595
00:26:45,460 --> 00:26:47,480
We got Corey Conners at plus 1400.
596
00:26:48,339 --> 00:26:51,079
Max Homa at plus 2000.
597
00:26:51,079 --> 00:26:53,000
Min Woo Lee at plus 2200.
598
00:26:53,664 --> 00:26:55,924
Maverick McNealy is also at plus 2200.
599
00:26:56,305 --> 00:26:59,125
Keith Mitchell's plus 3000, and J.J.
600
00:26:59,265 --> 00:27:01,285
Spaun at plus 4000.
601
00:27:03,744 --> 00:27:04,964
Who you like this week?
602
00:27:08,299 --> 00:27:09,519
You gotta go Homa.
603
00:27:10,140 --> 00:27:11,119
Gotta go Homa.
604
00:27:12,059 --> 00:27:13,099
I'm a big J.J.
605
00:27:13,099 --> 00:27:21,019
Spaun fan, and I think only because I pulled
this card out of, like, 10000 packs of golf
606
00:27:21,019 --> 00:27:21,519
cards.
607
00:27:21,784 --> 00:27:23,964
Got a really cool one of Maverick McNealy.
608
00:27:24,345 --> 00:27:25,644
Oh, nice.
609
00:27:26,265 --> 00:27:26,765
Yeah.
610
00:27:26,825 --> 00:27:29,005
Nate Lashley?
611
00:27:29,704 --> 00:27:30,204
Yeah.
612
00:27:30,825 --> 00:27:33,005
And then wingding sleeper?
613
00:27:33,065 --> 00:27:34,924
I don't know what that means.
614
00:27:36,849 --> 00:27:37,670
Not a clue.
615
00:27:37,970 --> 00:27:41,730
Wesley Bryan needs some redemption after
losing.
616
00:27:41,730 --> 00:27:42,690
I felt bad for him.
617
00:27:42,690 --> 00:27:46,069
I thought he played well in that creator's
classic.
618
00:27:46,849 --> 00:27:49,964
Little weird that a PGA Tour guy, though, was
playing in that.
619
00:27:50,444 --> 00:27:51,825
Shipley top five.
620
00:27:53,164 --> 00:27:54,704
Oh, ASU superstar.
621
00:27:54,845 --> 00:27:55,664
That's right.
622
00:27:56,444 --> 00:27:56,765
No.
623
00:27:56,765 --> 00:27:58,384
I know who you're talking about, Kyle.
624
00:27:58,845 --> 00:27:59,904
Wingding, dude.
625
00:27:59,964 --> 00:28:02,625
Wing like ding, dude.
626
00:28:02,765 --> 00:28:03,180
Yep.
627
00:28:03,580 --> 00:28:04,080
Wing.
628
00:28:04,220 --> 00:28:04,380
Wing.
629
00:28:04,380 --> 00:28:04,880
Ding.
630
00:28:05,259 --> 00:28:06,960
Everybody's doing the wing ding.
631
00:28:07,740 --> 00:28:08,559
Wing ding.
632
00:28:11,420 --> 00:28:12,240
Wing ding.
633
00:28:13,340 --> 00:28:15,259
I like Maverick McNealy this week.
634
00:28:15,259 --> 00:28:20,174
I'm with you on that one, but I am not gonna go
Wyndham Clark this week.
635
00:28:20,174 --> 00:28:24,754
I don't think that his game really fits this
very tight golf course.
636
00:28:25,694 --> 00:28:29,315
I do like gosh.
637
00:28:30,690 --> 00:28:32,710
I think Sahith is gonna do it again.
638
00:28:34,049 --> 00:28:35,009
Sahith to get
639
00:28:35,329 --> 00:28:40,769
I think he goes back to back because Sahith
played really well coming down the stretch of
640
00:28:40,769 --> 00:28:43,509
the FedEx Cup to end his year.
641
00:28:43,654 --> 00:28:45,414
I wonder if he's tired, though.
642
00:28:45,414 --> 00:28:46,154
Let's see.
643
00:28:46,934 --> 00:28:48,394
But I do like Sahith.
644
00:28:48,694 --> 00:28:49,974
So that's who I'm going.
645
00:28:50,054 --> 00:28:51,575
One of my favorite players, man.
646
00:28:51,575 --> 00:28:53,335
And and I don't even know why.
647
00:28:53,335 --> 00:28:54,294
I just I think I just
648
00:28:54,454 --> 00:28:56,234
He's got a swagger to him, man.
649
00:28:56,599 --> 00:28:56,759
Yeah.
650
00:28:56,759 --> 00:28:57,960
I just like the guy.
651
00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:58,279
Yeah.
652
00:28:58,279 --> 00:29:02,539
He like, the way he walks, the way he just is,
like, calm and nonchalant.
653
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:07,099
He kinda, like, bops as he goes, and he's kinda
long and dangly.
654
00:29:08,039 --> 00:29:08,680
Sounds like something
655
00:29:08,759 --> 00:29:12,875
He looks like a dude that would, like, not just
walk past yet.
656
00:29:12,875 --> 00:29:14,894
He'd be like, what's up, man?
657
00:29:14,954 --> 00:29:15,835
You know what I mean?
658
00:29:15,835 --> 00:29:16,394
I don't know.
659
00:29:16,394 --> 00:29:17,115
Chill, dude.
660
00:29:17,115 --> 00:29:17,835
Chill, dude.
661
00:29:17,835 --> 00:29:18,234
Chill.
662
00:29:18,234 --> 00:29:22,714
If I'm not mistaken, he went to Pepperdine, if
I'm not mistaken, which, if you know
663
00:29:22,714 --> 00:29:24,474
Pepperdine, that is, right.
664
00:29:24,474 --> 00:29:25,769
That's Malibu, baby.
665
00:29:26,250 --> 00:29:27,470
So you gotta be chill.
666
00:29:27,529 --> 00:29:28,650
I might be wrong on that.
667
00:29:29,289 --> 00:29:32,589
For whatever reason, that came to me, and I'm
not sure it's correct.
668
00:29:34,089 --> 00:29:35,630
So, yeah, we got that this week.
669
00:29:35,930 --> 00:29:38,190
So watch out for Napa Valley.
670
00:29:38,664 --> 00:29:38,984
Alright.
671
00:29:38,984 --> 00:29:44,845
Let's get into LIV Golf Chicago because the
2024 LIV Golf Chicago.
672
00:29:45,384 --> 00:29:48,684
This is a very important event on the LIV Golf
side.
673
00:29:49,144 --> 00:29:55,619
And, certainly, certainly, there are going to
be some things that are gonna be changing on
674
00:29:55,619 --> 00:30:00,500
LIV Golf heading into next year because it's
just set up that way.
675
00:30:00,500 --> 00:30:02,519
This is really interesting to me.
676
00:30:02,660 --> 00:30:05,744
So this is happening, in Chicago.
677
00:30:07,085 --> 00:30:08,704
Obviously, LIV Golf Chicago.
678
00:30:09,164 --> 00:30:16,285
But I wanna talk about just a couple of the key
topics for this particular event.
679
00:30:16,285 --> 00:30:21,470
First of all, the individual player title is up
for grabs.
680
00:30:21,470 --> 00:30:21,970
K?
681
00:30:22,190 --> 00:30:27,889
Really between Jon Rahm and then also Joaquin
Niemann.
682
00:30:28,109 --> 00:30:32,990
So Rahm's behind Niemann and basically has
already said he's like, I know Niemann's gonna
683
00:30:32,990 --> 00:30:38,154
be up there in, like, the top ten because of
how well he's been playing, so I need to go out
684
00:30:38,154 --> 00:30:43,534
and win in order to get enough points in order
to hopefully take over.
685
00:30:44,075 --> 00:30:47,994
So Rahm knows he's gotta go in and win this
golf tournament in order to have a chance of
686
00:30:47,994 --> 00:30:50,769
winning the individual player race.
687
00:30:51,230 --> 00:30:54,829
Who do you think ends up taking the individual
player?
688
00:30:54,829 --> 00:30:56,049
Is it Rahm or is it Niemann?
689
00:30:56,909 --> 00:30:57,409
Rahm.
690
00:30:58,349 --> 00:30:59,169
Love that.
691
00:30:59,309 --> 00:31:00,130
Love that.
692
00:31:00,190 --> 00:31:01,950
I can't disagree with that whatsoever.
693
00:31:01,950 --> 00:31:07,755
I think Rahm has a really good chance in
Chicago to win that event and take the
694
00:31:07,755 --> 00:31:08,815
individual title.
695
00:31:08,954 --> 00:31:14,315
Wouldn't that be awesome for him to finally
kinda not break through because he broke
696
00:31:14,315 --> 00:31:15,375
through in the UK?
697
00:31:15,595 --> 00:31:22,690
But if he broke through on LIV, having this
kinda weird year where he didn't really get—he
698
00:31:22,690 --> 00:31:27,490
kinda lost favor with a lot of fans, not by
making the move over to LIV, but because he
699
00:31:27,490 --> 00:31:32,549
kinda became irrelevant, just was putting in
top fives in almost every event.
700
00:31:33,009 --> 00:31:36,134
And everybody, including us, was saying that,
hey.
701
00:31:36,275 --> 00:31:41,394
You know, Jon Rahm really hasn't had a great
year on LIV Golf because we expected him to win
702
00:31:41,394 --> 00:31:42,295
multiple times.
703
00:31:42,355 --> 00:31:46,914
But now he's got a chance to win, take the
individual title, and then all of a sudden, we
704
00:31:46,914 --> 00:31:49,575
can't really have that conversation anymore,
can we?
705
00:31:50,390 --> 00:31:50,789
No.
706
00:31:50,789 --> 00:31:58,390
And I'm just gonna say, because of the gravity
of this event, that's gonna get Jon Rahm's
707
00:31:58,390 --> 00:31:59,190
loins going.
708
00:31:59,190 --> 00:31:59,509
You know?
709
00:31:59,509 --> 00:32:00,390
That's gonna get—Oh,
710
00:32:00,390 --> 00:32:00,950
loins is
711
00:32:00,950 --> 00:32:01,769
a brand word.
712
00:32:02,069 --> 00:32:02,309
Yeah.
713
00:32:02,309 --> 00:32:03,829
It's gonna juice up his loins.
714
00:32:03,829 --> 00:32:04,390
You know?
715
00:32:04,390 --> 00:32:04,890
Yeah.
716
00:32:06,684 --> 00:32:08,445
I had a rib eye before the show.
717
00:32:08,445 --> 00:32:11,585
I'm, like, salivating over it right now.
718
00:32:11,805 --> 00:32:13,025
Jon Rahm's loins?
719
00:32:13,404 --> 00:32:15,005
It sounds weird when you say it that way.
720
00:32:15,005 --> 00:32:17,664
When you put it into that context, very
strange.
721
00:32:17,884 --> 00:32:18,384
Yeah.
722
00:32:18,845 --> 00:32:21,424
Not, not really feeling that.
723
00:32:21,910 --> 00:32:22,390
Yeah.
724
00:32:22,390 --> 00:32:23,609
I was taking a bite.
725
00:32:23,750 --> 00:32:24,570
Just general.
726
00:32:25,750 --> 00:32:26,250
Okay.
727
00:32:26,549 --> 00:32:32,970
So what's interesting about this in addition
in, to me, that's not even the most interesting
728
00:32:33,190 --> 00:32:35,289
topic going into LIV Golf Chicago.
729
00:32:35,455 --> 00:32:37,455
We've got the top 24 lock zone.
730
00:32:37,455 --> 00:32:37,955
Okay?
731
00:32:38,734 --> 00:32:41,234
I'm trying so hard to be serious about this.
732
00:32:42,255 --> 00:32:44,275
It's the top 24 lock zone.
733
00:32:44,894 --> 00:32:51,029
Now the top 24, they are secure for next year,
so nothing can happen to them.
734
00:32:51,029 --> 00:32:53,609
They're guaranteed to be on LIV Golf.
735
00:32:53,669 --> 00:33:00,230
And this is one of the changes that they've
made, to where now you have an open zone and
736
00:33:00,230 --> 00:33:01,529
you have a drop zone.
737
00:33:01,605 --> 00:33:06,884
So the open zone and I didn't realize this
until, like, really digging into this, that the
738
00:33:06,884 --> 00:33:09,464
open zone is your 25th player through 48th.
739
00:33:10,484 --> 00:33:14,585
They can be released or traded by the teams.
740
00:33:17,339 --> 00:33:17,839
Okay.
741
00:33:19,500 --> 00:33:20,880
You don't find that interesting?
742
00:33:22,700 --> 00:33:23,200
No.
743
00:33:23,259 --> 00:33:24,940
So even if you're, like, safe I
744
00:33:24,940 --> 00:33:25,700
gotta do something.
745
00:33:26,059 --> 00:33:30,079
Even if you're safe, you're in this open zone,
you could be released.
746
00:33:30,140 --> 00:33:33,914
So let's say that, like, Brooks Koepka is like,
hey, Graeme McDowell.
747
00:33:34,694 --> 00:33:40,454
You even though you're in this, like, open
zone, I don't like that you got popped for,
748
00:33:40,774 --> 00:33:41,674
doing some dinghies.
749
00:33:41,815 --> 00:33:42,474
You know?
750
00:33:42,615 --> 00:33:44,234
So you're gone.
751
00:33:44,534 --> 00:33:45,914
He can release him.
752
00:33:47,890 --> 00:33:50,130
If not, if he's in the top 24 though.
753
00:33:50,130 --> 00:33:50,369
Right?
754
00:33:50,369 --> 00:33:51,250
Outside of that
755
00:33:51,490 --> 00:33:57,990
Out the 25th through 48th are the players that
can be released or they can be traded.
756
00:33:58,795 --> 00:34:00,894
I mean, I don't think that's crazy interesting.
757
00:34:00,955 --> 00:34:03,515
Like, you gotta have something like that.
758
00:34:03,515 --> 00:34:09,034
The field is only so big in LIV Golf, so you
have to have some benchmark where if you're
759
00:34:09,034 --> 00:34:11,034
above it, you know, you're not safe.
760
00:34:11,034 --> 00:34:17,579
I mean, guys have to have the, what's the word
I'm looking for, incentive to get to the top
761
00:34:17,579 --> 00:34:18,059
24.
762
00:34:18,059 --> 00:34:21,820
There's all the fields are only so big, so they
have to have something to play for before they
763
00:34:21,820 --> 00:34:23,340
get the boot or could get the boot.
764
00:34:23,340 --> 00:34:23,659
Right?
765
00:34:23,659 --> 00:34:23,820
Like
766
00:34:24,059 --> 00:34:24,380
Yeah.
767
00:34:24,380 --> 00:34:30,815
One compliment that I will say for LIV Golf is,
like, this happens on the PGA Tour where guys
768
00:34:30,815 --> 00:34:35,855
lose their card and everything, but it is not
built in this way to where, like, this is a top
769
00:34:35,855 --> 00:34:41,170
storyline of who's gonna end up in the open
zone, who's guaranteed for next year, who's
770
00:34:41,170 --> 00:34:47,750
gonna be in the drop zone that now has to go
try to requalify to get back on to LIV.
771
00:34:47,809 --> 00:34:55,734
So the drop zone are the guys who are all
banished from LIV Golf and have to go play in
772
00:34:55,734 --> 00:35:01,835
that, like, Q School setup to where now they've
gotta play their way back onto LIV Golf.
773
00:35:02,695 --> 00:35:04,534
And that is 49th and lower.
774
00:35:04,534 --> 00:35:08,054
Now your buddy, Pat Perez, he's 48th right now.
775
00:35:08,054 --> 00:35:09,594
So he's right on the bubble.
776
00:35:09,655 --> 00:35:12,510
However, I wanna see some controversy this
year.
777
00:35:12,510 --> 00:35:13,869
Like, I'm not saying this.
778
00:35:13,869 --> 00:35:15,710
I'm not putting this out there for Pat.
779
00:35:15,710 --> 00:35:16,590
I'm just saying this.
780
00:35:16,590 --> 00:35:21,650
It's like, what if Dustin Johnson was just he
had enough of Pat on his team?
781
00:35:22,110 --> 00:35:23,070
Not gonna happen.
782
00:35:23,070 --> 00:35:26,530
That's why I'll bring up the example because
Pat and DJ are buddies.
783
00:35:26,885 --> 00:35:29,684
But let's say that he was just like, Pat,
you're just not cutting it, man.
784
00:35:29,684 --> 00:35:32,664
I think somebody else is gonna be better, and
he releases him.
785
00:35:33,125 --> 00:35:37,844
There's a chance that Pat isn't on LIV Golf
next year because he was in the open zone even
786
00:35:37,844 --> 00:35:40,425
though he made it out of the drop zone.
787
00:35:41,039 --> 00:35:41,539
Wow.
788
00:35:42,559 --> 00:35:44,179
That's a storyline to me.
789
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:45,199
It is.
790
00:35:45,199 --> 00:35:47,440
And, yeah.
791
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,840
I mean, play better, I guess, at the end of the
day.
792
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:51,840
That's always that's always the right answer.
793
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:52,320
Right?
794
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:53,539
Just play better.
795
00:35:54,155 --> 00:35:54,514
Play better.
796
00:35:54,714 --> 00:36:00,795
In years past, they have not allowed if you
were in the drop zone as a captain, you were
797
00:36:00,795 --> 00:36:01,295
safe.
798
00:36:03,355 --> 00:36:09,780
This year, the way Greg Norman has stated this
is that the captains are not safe.
799
00:36:09,940 --> 00:36:14,739
And he talked about Bubba Watson specifically
because Bubba Watson's sitting at 52nd place
800
00:36:14,739 --> 00:36:15,400
right now.
801
00:36:15,860 --> 00:36:16,179
Yeah.
802
00:36:16,179 --> 00:36:19,400
So he's most likely gone unless he has a good
week.
803
00:36:19,460 --> 00:36:25,864
Now you have to basically play into the top 10
in order to get enough points to move yourself
804
00:36:26,005 --> 00:36:26,505
to
805
00:36:26,644 --> 00:36:27,465
out of that.
806
00:36:28,005 --> 00:36:28,244
Yeah.
807
00:36:28,244 --> 00:36:28,485
Yeah.
808
00:36:28,485 --> 00:36:28,985
Yeah.
809
00:36:29,125 --> 00:36:30,905
So it's literally one good week.
810
00:36:31,284 --> 00:36:32,885
I want some drama, man.
811
00:36:32,885 --> 00:36:35,284
I wanna be able to, like, report on this.
812
00:36:35,284 --> 00:36:39,769
Wouldn't it be awesome if all of a sudden
Matthew Wolff gets dropped by Bubba Watson, and
813
00:36:39,769 --> 00:36:44,190
all of a sudden he's all butthurt over it
because he's like, I was in the open zone.
814
00:36:44,250 --> 00:36:48,429
You didn't even make it, and yet you're going
to release me.
815
00:36:49,050 --> 00:36:49,449
Right.
816
00:36:49,449 --> 00:36:52,589
And it's like and it then he doesn't get picked
up by another team.
817
00:36:53,015 --> 00:36:58,454
And then all of a sudden, it becomes this big
drama out there, and it's like, shoot, man.
818
00:36:58,454 --> 00:37:00,474
This, this could be juicy.
819
00:37:00,535 --> 00:37:06,695
We get Matthew Wolff to come on the show, start
talking some shit about his experience on LIV
820
00:37:06,695 --> 00:37:07,015
Golf.
821
00:37:07,015 --> 00:37:09,910
Like, it just this could lead to so many
things.
822
00:37:09,910 --> 00:37:11,369
I think this would be a blast.
823
00:37:11,510 --> 00:37:12,230
You're not lying.
824
00:37:12,230 --> 00:37:17,210
You got lifelong friendships in some cases
that, could be no more.
825
00:37:17,670 --> 00:37:20,474
But we're also talking about a shitload of
money here.
826
00:37:20,715 --> 00:37:22,974
Like, this isn't just friendships.
827
00:37:23,114 --> 00:37:24,555
This is like alright.
828
00:37:24,555 --> 00:37:25,535
This is livelihoods.
829
00:37:26,075 --> 00:37:30,635
And, so is your potential $38,000,000 you would
make next year.
830
00:37:30,635 --> 00:37:31,695
Have a nice day.
831
00:37:31,994 --> 00:37:36,000
And by the way, there's no there's nowhere else
for you to play either.
832
00:37:36,300 --> 00:37:36,800
Yeah.
833
00:37:37,099 --> 00:37:39,119
You're banned from everything else.
834
00:37:39,260 --> 00:37:40,079
See you.
835
00:37:40,139 --> 00:37:41,659
It's the only place you could play.
836
00:37:41,659 --> 00:37:42,780
You're not going to alright.
837
00:37:42,780 --> 00:37:47,684
I'll just go, you know, Monday qualify and play
my events on the PGA at noon.
838
00:37:47,824 --> 00:37:53,184
Now do you actually think anything would happen
for anybody in the open zone other than getting
839
00:37:53,184 --> 00:37:54,224
traded to another team?
840
00:37:54,224 --> 00:37:56,164
Think anybody's gonna get released?
841
00:37:57,344 --> 00:37:57,844
Yeah.
842
00:37:58,329 --> 00:37:58,909
You do?
843
00:37:59,530 --> 00:38:03,210
I think there's gonna be at least one or two
guys that get real yeah.
844
00:38:03,210 --> 00:38:04,730
I don't see it.
845
00:38:04,730 --> 00:38:13,684
I see this as they have to do this in order to
rework their system to get, oh, like, to get
846
00:38:13,684 --> 00:38:18,425
official world golf ranking points at some
point because they had to do a relegation.
847
00:38:18,644 --> 00:38:24,405
They had to do all these different aspects
because they have to allow people to play their
848
00:38:24,405 --> 00:38:26,905
way into LIV Golf and so forth.
849
00:38:26,965 --> 00:38:34,039
I just I think it is more so from a marketing
aspect with the open zone than anything because
850
00:38:34,039 --> 00:38:37,579
they needed some type of platform to be able to
trade players.
851
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:38,679
Yeah.
852
00:38:38,679 --> 00:38:42,199
I mean, there's that, but I do think you're
gonna see one or two.
853
00:38:42,199 --> 00:38:44,105
I would prophesize that.
854
00:38:44,324 --> 00:38:44,804
And I
855
00:38:44,804 --> 00:38:45,605
would love that.
856
00:38:45,605 --> 00:38:46,905
That would be so dramatic.
857
00:38:47,445 --> 00:38:52,965
And maybe a guy gets brought in that you didn't
even know was in talks with LIV Golf that comes
858
00:38:52,965 --> 00:38:57,605
right off the PGA Tour and ends up on a team,
and everybody's like, holy shit.
859
00:38:57,605 --> 00:38:58,344
Like, what?
860
00:38:58,780 --> 00:39:02,720
Or they grab somebody straight out of college
like Jon Rahm did with Caleb Surratt.
861
00:39:03,180 --> 00:39:03,500
Yeah.
862
00:39:03,500 --> 00:39:04,640
You could do that.
863
00:39:04,780 --> 00:39:09,019
And I think that would spice it up more than
not doing that.
864
00:39:09,019 --> 00:39:11,579
That would be the biggest move they could ever
make from
865
00:39:11,740 --> 00:39:12,059
My god.
866
00:39:12,059 --> 00:39:16,375
Could you imagine if all of a sudden it's like,
hey, Ian Poulter.
867
00:39:18,514 --> 00:39:21,734
I'm dropping you because Poulter's 46 right
now.
868
00:39:21,795 --> 00:39:25,315
I'm dropping you, and I'm picking and I'm so
I'm just releasing you.
869
00:39:25,315 --> 00:39:31,469
Even though you made it past the drop zone, I'm
releasing you, and I'm picking up this young
870
00:39:31,469 --> 00:39:36,929
kid straight out of college who's a stud, and
I'm bringing him in on my team.
871
00:39:37,309 --> 00:39:38,449
Makes a lot of sense.
872
00:39:39,230 --> 00:39:42,510
That would be more entertaining for the fans
too.
873
00:39:42,510 --> 00:39:42,829
Oh, god.
874
00:39:42,829 --> 00:39:43,890
It would be awesome.
875
00:39:44,105 --> 00:39:48,684
Could you imagine our podcast episode after
news like that would break?
876
00:39:49,385 --> 00:39:49,885
Oh.
877
00:39:50,264 --> 00:39:51,144
Oh my god.
878
00:39:51,144 --> 00:39:51,964
And the memes.
879
00:39:52,664 --> 00:39:56,525
The amount of memes that would get posted is
just somebody just looking so sad.
880
00:39:56,664 --> 00:39:57,644
Oh my god.
881
00:39:58,150 --> 00:39:58,469
Yeah.
882
00:39:58,469 --> 00:40:01,610
If LIV releases too many, can they actually
refill it?
883
00:40:02,710 --> 00:40:10,875
So from what I understand, there is a huge
backlog of current PGA Tour players that would
884
00:40:10,875 --> 00:40:16,255
love the opportunity to this day to be invited
to play on the LIV tour.
885
00:40:16,554 --> 00:40:21,515
So I attest to that because I've spoken with
guys who are on the PGA Tour that are low on
886
00:40:21,515 --> 00:40:26,920
the rankings that would have accepted a LIV
Golf offer in a heartbeat.
887
00:40:27,300 --> 00:40:32,659
So to me, I think they have plenty of options
when it comes to that.
888
00:40:32,659 --> 00:40:37,094
I think what's more interesting, though, than
picking up veteran guys off of the PGA Tour
889
00:40:37,094 --> 00:40:41,335
that are towards the bottom of the rankings,
about to lose their card or technically just
890
00:40:41,335 --> 00:40:45,355
have, like, conditional status, I think what's
more interesting are the college kids.
891
00:40:45,815 --> 00:40:46,135
Yeah.
892
00:40:46,135 --> 00:40:49,799
Because these college kids, how much money are
you gonna give them?
893
00:40:49,799 --> 00:40:56,760
Like, they picked up Caleb Surratt this year
and gave him a couple million dollars because
894
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:58,760
he doesn't really have any stock yet.
895
00:40:58,760 --> 00:40:59,079
You know?
896
00:40:59,079 --> 00:41:01,260
It's kinda like the NBA draft.
897
00:41:01,525 --> 00:41:02,565
It's like the draft.
898
00:41:02,565 --> 00:41:03,445
It's like baseball.
899
00:41:03,445 --> 00:41:09,684
Like, you got a new prospect, right, that
nobody's really unless you're following golf
900
00:41:09,684 --> 00:41:14,085
rankings and where everybody's at in college
and what do we got here?
901
00:41:14,085 --> 00:41:15,364
Poulter's clothing line?
902
00:41:15,364 --> 00:41:17,190
Oh, we don't need to talk about that.
903
00:41:18,869 --> 00:41:19,089
It's logo.
904
00:41:19,089 --> 00:41:19,670
It's a lot
905
00:41:19,670 --> 00:41:19,989
of P.
906
00:41:20,150 --> 00:41:20,650
Giannis.
907
00:41:21,349 --> 00:41:21,549
Yeah.
908
00:41:21,549 --> 00:41:21,750
It's
909
00:41:21,750 --> 00:41:23,050
a it's a penis.
910
00:41:27,349 --> 00:41:29,609
Told you not to bother me when I'm cleaning my
room.
911
00:41:30,550 --> 00:41:30,869
Okay.
912
00:41:30,869 --> 00:41:31,769
One more time.
913
00:41:37,244 --> 00:41:39,825
You'd be more pre senior players equals
product.
914
00:41:40,045 --> 00:41:42,765
It's not pre senior players all that we're
talking about here.
915
00:41:44,364 --> 00:41:50,000
There are definitely young guys that aren't
even ranked low on the PGA Tour.
916
00:41:50,140 --> 00:41:52,960
There's also some Korn Ferry guys that would
take that in a heartbeat.
917
00:41:53,340 --> 00:41:53,840
Yeah.
918
00:41:53,900 --> 00:41:56,320
There's plenty of dudes out there that would
take the opportunity.
919
00:41:56,860 --> 00:42:00,539
I think I and, again, I think that is the more
interesting aspect.
920
00:42:00,539 --> 00:42:03,655
I think they get away from the names per se.
921
00:42:03,795 --> 00:42:08,034
They start bringing in because they've got the
big names, right, as far as the captains of the
922
00:42:08,034 --> 00:42:08,534
teams.
923
00:42:09,394 --> 00:42:12,855
Maybe they'll pick the winner of the Creator
Classic and give him an opportunity.
924
00:42:13,875 --> 00:42:14,355
Yeah.
925
00:42:14,355 --> 00:42:17,735
Maybe that becomes a qualifying event for a
spot on LIV.
926
00:42:18,730 --> 00:42:19,530
Fucking joke.
927
00:42:19,530 --> 00:42:20,010
Anyways
928
00:42:20,970 --> 00:42:22,269
Good old Luke Kwon.
929
00:42:23,130 --> 00:42:27,450
They really played up during the Creator
Classic that he had brain damage from a cart
930
00:42:27,450 --> 00:42:27,950
accident.
931
00:42:28,250 --> 00:42:30,989
I'm like, I really want them to explain this
golf cart accident.
932
00:42:31,815 --> 00:42:32,214
Yeah.
933
00:42:32,214 --> 00:42:33,594
They didn't share the story.
934
00:42:33,734 --> 00:42:37,255
They just kept saying that he had brain damage,
was in the hospital.
935
00:42:37,255 --> 00:42:39,994
That's why he doesn't play professional golf
apparently.
936
00:42:40,695 --> 00:42:41,894
I'm just like, what?
937
00:42:41,894 --> 00:42:47,195
Like, this how can you just lead with he was in
a golf cart accident?
938
00:42:47,780 --> 00:42:48,420
What did he do?
939
00:42:48,420 --> 00:42:49,460
He drive off a mountain?
940
00:42:49,460 --> 00:42:50,579
That's what I wanna know.
941
00:42:50,579 --> 00:42:53,320
Or did he flip a cart and it landed on his
head?
942
00:42:53,619 --> 00:42:55,539
I've done that a bunch of times.
943
00:42:55,539 --> 00:42:56,039
Yeah.
944
00:42:56,099 --> 00:42:57,960
I thought I broke my shoulder once.
945
00:42:58,179 --> 00:42:58,679
Yeah.
946
00:42:58,980 --> 00:42:59,460
Yeah.
947
00:42:59,460 --> 00:43:02,964
I, I wrecked John Daly's golf cart right in
front of him.
948
00:43:02,964 --> 00:43:04,505
I think I told that story before.
949
00:43:04,885 --> 00:43:05,204
Anyways
950
00:43:05,525 --> 00:43:05,844
Alright.
951
00:43:05,844 --> 00:43:07,444
We gotta keep it moving here.
952
00:43:07,444 --> 00:43:09,304
I know, we're on a tight schedule.
953
00:43:10,164 --> 00:43:13,704
Let's go ahead and move on from LIV Golf
Chicago.
954
00:43:13,764 --> 00:43:18,679
But just so you guys know, Ian Poulter's in
46th, Pat Perez in 48th.
955
00:43:18,820 --> 00:43:20,360
Those are the guys on the bubble.
956
00:43:20,900 --> 00:43:22,360
I forget who's in 47th.
957
00:43:22,420 --> 00:43:23,559
I didn't write it down.
958
00:43:23,860 --> 00:43:31,144
But the drop zone, you've got Branden Grace,
Scott Vincent, Bubba Watson, and Laurie Canter
959
00:43:31,204 --> 00:43:34,505
that, are all in that relegation zone.
960
00:43:35,204 --> 00:43:36,905
So watch out for those storylines.
961
00:43:37,125 --> 00:43:41,684
I would just love to see the PGA Tour do a
better job with the guys who are about to lose
962
00:43:41,684 --> 00:43:42,324
their card.
963
00:43:42,324 --> 00:43:45,960
And if they're in the fall series, like, that
could be all of this.
964
00:43:46,820 --> 00:43:48,519
They should be the highlight stories.
965
00:43:48,739 --> 00:43:49,780
We should be hearing about
966
00:43:49,780 --> 00:43:49,940
it.
967
00:43:50,099 --> 00:43:52,119
This could be the relegation series.
968
00:43:52,500 --> 00:43:52,820
Yes.
969
00:43:52,820 --> 00:43:58,760
I mean, use a different word than relegation,
but this could be that type of setup.
970
00:43:59,304 --> 00:44:00,184
Feast or famine.
971
00:44:00,184 --> 00:44:01,465
Like, whatever you wanna call it.
972
00:44:01,465 --> 00:44:01,704
Yeah.
973
00:44:01,704 --> 00:44:01,864
Yeah.
974
00:44:01,864 --> 00:44:02,105
Yeah.
975
00:44:02,105 --> 00:44:06,824
But we need to highlight who those
personalities are, so that you create that
976
00:44:06,824 --> 00:44:09,224
underdog mentality and people could start
getting behind people.
977
00:44:09,224 --> 00:44:10,344
You got something to follow.
978
00:44:10,344 --> 00:44:11,159
How did he do?
979
00:44:11,639 --> 00:44:13,719
I know he was like, his career could change
forever.
980
00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:15,239
If he doesn't make it, like, what happened?
981
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:15,719
I don't know.
982
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:17,000
Just there's no hype.
983
00:44:17,079 --> 00:44:22,519
One that I don't know, and I don't know if
anybody else knows this because I don't know if
984
00:44:22,519 --> 00:44:28,425
it's been actually discussed and talked about
by Greg Norman or anybody in the executive team
985
00:44:28,425 --> 00:44:32,125
over there at LIV Golf, but what happens to
Anthony Kim?
986
00:44:33,144 --> 00:44:34,684
Because he's in the drop zone.
987
00:44:34,824 --> 00:44:39,599
So if he ends up in the drop zone, does he have
to play his way back, or do they throw him
988
00:44:39,599 --> 00:44:42,819
another contract to be an individual player?
989
00:44:43,359 --> 00:44:44,179
He's drawn.
990
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:44,480
I see.
991
00:44:44,559 --> 00:44:45,859
Individual players work.
992
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:50,900
I would imagine he's drawn way too much love to
it and his plight.
993
00:44:51,164 --> 00:44:54,765
I mean, they've blown him up, the amount of
interviews that he's done talking about
994
00:44:54,765 --> 00:44:55,751
addiction and all that shit.
995
00:44:55,751 --> 00:44:56,684
And, like Yeah.
996
00:44:56,684 --> 00:44:58,285
But they're not gonna let that just fall.
997
00:44:58,285 --> 00:45:00,625
That's they put a lot of work into him.
998
00:45:01,005 --> 00:45:02,204
I completely agree with you.
999
00:45:02,204 --> 00:45:05,344
They're gonna give him another year to see if
he can get it done.
1000
00:45:05,739 --> 00:45:09,500
And I just don't know how that all plays out
with it being the drop zone and him being in
1001
00:45:09,500 --> 00:45:15,280
the drop zone and stating that you have to play
your way back in, but then you're gonna give
1002
00:45:15,340 --> 00:45:20,059
another individual player because they did two
individual players this year that would play in
1003
00:45:20,059 --> 00:45:20,539
events.
1004
00:45:20,539 --> 00:45:25,184
So that's kinda like their sponsor's exemption,
so I'm sure that's gonna be the same thing
1005
00:45:25,485 --> 00:45:26,304
moving forward.
1006
00:45:26,844 --> 00:45:29,105
Let's get into the Swanny's style segment,
folks.
1007
00:45:29,164 --> 00:45:33,900
So for the Swanny's style segment, this is not
actually a segment this week.
1008
00:45:34,059 --> 00:45:34,960
This is an announcement.
1009
00:45:35,579 --> 00:45:36,079
Okay?
1010
00:45:36,380 --> 00:45:38,219
You guys are getting taken care of.
1011
00:45:38,219 --> 00:45:40,400
I went to Swanny's, and I'm like, hey.
1012
00:45:40,460 --> 00:45:40,960

So this is our pull hook golf, Swanny's golf
audience appreciation.
1029
00:46:33,210 --> 00:46:37,469
Now there is a brand new luggage set that I've
talked about on this podcast.
1030
00:46:38,730 --> 00:46:41,930
The luggage set, we are giving away an entire
set.
1031
00:46:41,930 --> 00:46:42,989
That's two backpacks.
1032
00:46:43,355 --> 00:46:44,894
That is the shoe bag.
1033
00:46:44,954 --> 00:46:46,315
That is the duffle bag.
1034
00:46:46,315 --> 00:46:52,554
I've been using this nonstop for going on a
little weekend trip, doing a member-guest, and
1035
00:46:52,554 --> 00:46:53,835
it's been absolutely awesome.
1036
00:46:53,835 --> 00:46:57,375
The backpack goes with me to all the ASU
football tailgates.
1037
00:46:58,315 --> 00:47:04,449
So with this giveaway, okay, this is gonna be
announced next week, so it's going to start
1038
00:47:04,449 --> 00:47:04,949
tomorrow.
1039
00:47:05,489 --> 00:47:10,369
Be on the lookout for the Instagram post that I
post because we're obviously gonna have the
1040
00:47:10,369 --> 00:47:14,485
podcast cover for this week, but we're also
gonna have a Swannies giveaway post.
1041
00:47:14,485 --> 00:47:18,565
What you're gonna have to do and I don't wanna
get Buttsy in trouble with any of his sponsors,
1042
00:47:18,565 --> 00:47:22,565
so I'm not gonna include you on this, Buttsy,
for a follow.
1043
00:47:22,565 --> 00:47:25,785
But guys, you should make sure you're following
Buttsy.
1044
00:47:25,844 --> 00:47:26,344
Okay?
1045
00:47:27,069 --> 00:47:28,670
That's first and foremost on Instagram.
1046
00:47:28,670 --> 00:47:29,069
Thank you.
1047
00:47:29,069 --> 00:47:33,389
Make sure to give Buttsy a follow because in
order to be eligible for this event and I
1048
00:47:33,389 --> 00:47:33,789
thought about it.
1049
00:47:33,789 --> 00:47:37,710
I was like, I should make them have to follow
you as well, but that would mean you'd have to
1050
00:47:37,710 --> 00:47:38,589
post and whatever.
1051
00:47:38,589 --> 00:47:43,045
But with that said, follow Pull Hook Golf on
Instagram.
1052
00:47:43,585 --> 00:47:47,204
You also have to be following Swannies Golf on
Instagram.
1053
00:47:47,824 --> 00:47:54,539
You have to like the post, and then you have to
tag your typical foursome in the comments.
1054
00:47:54,599 --> 00:47:55,000
Okay?
1055
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:57,019
This is not your dream foursome this time.
1056
00:47:57,079 --> 00:48:01,819
This is your typical foursome that you play
golf with on the weekends, your buddies.
1057
00:48:02,039 --> 00:48:05,019
Entries are unlimited, so tag as many friends
as you want.
1058
00:48:05,159 --> 00:48:08,664
But, each tag should be for four players.
1059
00:48:08,664 --> 00:48:09,065
Okay?
1060
00:48:09,065 --> 00:48:14,505
Or each comment should be four players in there
or three players, obviously, and then yourself.
1061
00:48:14,505 --> 00:48:19,964
So the drawing will be live on Instagram next
week.
1062
00:48:20,429 --> 00:48:20,670
Okay?
1063
00:48:20,670 --> 00:48:23,309
So make sure to stay tuned for those details.
1064
00:48:23,309 --> 00:48:30,269
But once again, in the meantime, go and utilize
the promo code, pullhookgolf35.
1065
00:48:30,269 --> 00:48:35,250
That is going to be available exclusively

1067
00:48:39,844 --> 00:48:44,585
I was so pumped when I'm like, hey, I think we
should do this for the audience, and Swannies
1068
00:48:44,644 --> 00:48:45,045
agreed.
1069
00:48:45,045 --> 00:48:50,005
They're like, you guys absolutely crush it with
sales, so let's go ahead and give these guys
1070
00:48:50,005 --> 00:48:50,789
what they want.
1071
00:48:51,269 --> 00:48:51,769
Cool.
1072
00:48:51,829 --> 00:48:52,789
35% off.
1073
00:48:52,789 --> 00:48:55,610
So that is the Swannies style segment for this
week.
1074
00:48:55,670 --> 00:49:00,489
And without further ado, let's move right into
our final segment of the night.
1075
00:49:00,630 --> 00:49:04,570
Is Bernhard Langer legally anchoring his
putter?
1076
00:49:05,614 --> 00:49:07,694
Let's, let's look at this.
1077
00:49:07,694 --> 00:49:08,014
Okay?
1078
00:49:08,014 --> 00:49:10,675
Because I've got an example here.
1079
00:49:12,974 --> 00:49:14,675
This is the point in question.
1080
00:49:14,815 --> 00:49:15,315
Okay?
1081
00:49:16,175 --> 00:49:23,690
Now I'm going to read the rules out to
everybody so that you can get a good idea as to
1082
00:49:23,690 --> 00:49:30,970
what rule might be broken because, originally,
I believe the rule back in, like, 2017 was that
1083
00:49:30,970 --> 00:49:35,835
your hand can't be connected to your body as an
anchoring point.
1084
00:49:36,214 --> 00:49:39,914
So that's what a lot of these guys kind of
built their entire argument off of.
1085
00:49:40,855 --> 00:49:49,070
Now with that, the anchoring point does not
just have to be according to rule 10.1b.
1086
00:49:49,070 --> 00:49:50,450
It's not just your hand.
1087
00:49:51,550 --> 00:50:00,244
It's also if you anchor, like, your forearm or
wrist to your chest, and then your hand is off
1088
00:50:00,244 --> 00:50:02,425
and away holding the putter.
1089
00:50:03,925 --> 00:50:10,585
So that being said, in 2017, this goes all the
way back to then.
1090
00:50:10,820 --> 00:50:17,940
Brandel Chamblee is the one who, along with
Trot Golfer here, our audience member, called
1091
00:50:17,940 --> 00:50:21,239
out Bernhard Langer and Scott McCarron.
1092
00:50:21,300 --> 00:50:21,780
Okay?
1093
00:50:21,780 --> 00:50:28,234
And his tweet, this is verbatim, with regard to
anchor or with regard to the anchoring ban on
1094
00:50:28,234 --> 00:50:30,734
the PGA Tour Champions, it's appalling.
1095
00:50:31,034 --> 00:50:34,954
I have never seen such gross disregard for the
spirit of the game.
1096
00:50:34,954 --> 00:50:37,214
That was why Brandel Chamblee tweeted that.
1097
00:50:37,489 --> 00:50:44,210
And then the PGA Tour's PR department came out
with a statement from Bernhard Langer and Scott
1098
00:50:44,210 --> 00:50:49,250
McCarron, basically not stating how they
weren't anchoring, just stating that they
1099
00:50:49,250 --> 00:50:49,750
weren't.
1100
00:50:50,094 --> 00:50:50,594
Okay?
1101
00:50:50,974 --> 00:50:55,855
So I ask you, Buttsy, what is your take on
this?
1102
00:50:55,855 --> 00:50:57,635
I wanna start off with you first.
1103
00:50:58,414 --> 00:51:07,039
Well, it seems like the rule was developed to
extinguish anything that looked like this,
1104
00:51:07,180 --> 00:51:07,579
really.
1105
00:51:07,579 --> 00:51:09,440
They're trying to get rid of that altogether.
1106
00:51:10,059 --> 00:51:16,780
And to find a little loophole or a way around
it, it's just like, like fluffing up your lie,
1107
00:51:16,780 --> 00:51:18,940
but then saying, oh, I wasn't fluffing it up.
1108
00:51:18,940 --> 00:51:22,391
I was just putting my 3-wood behind the ball in
the rough.
1109
00:51:22,391 --> 00:51:23,780
You know what I mean?
1110
00:51:23,780 --> 00:51:29,059
Like, it's, it's not something I don't think
you can call on them, but they should call it
1111
00:51:29,059 --> 00:51:29,615
on themselves.
1112
00:51:29,615 --> 00:51:31,559
Like, it's just ridiculous that it's gross.
1113
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:33,079
It's absolutely cheating.
1114
00:51:33,079 --> 00:51:34,760
It's like it goes against the rule.
1115
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:36,440
You're still doing it.
1116
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:38,360
You kinda skirting the edge of it.
1117
00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:39,719
It's just kinda chintzy to me.
1118
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:40,460
It's cheap.
1119
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:41,400
Yeah.
1120
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:42,619
I completely agree.
1121
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,405
Obviously, Bernhard Langer has dealt with the
yips.
1122
00:51:45,644 --> 00:51:47,485
Okay, and dealt with them really bad.
1123
00:51:47,485 --> 00:51:50,204
Even with the anchoring and everything, he
still struggles.
1124
00:51:50,204 --> 00:51:53,005
So, like, this is a lifeline for Bernhard
Langer.
1125
00:51:53,005 --> 00:51:54,364
That's why he's fighting it.
1126
00:51:54,364 --> 00:51:55,164
Why he's doing it?
1127
00:51:55,164 --> 00:51:55,324
Yeah.
1128
00:51:55,324 --> 00:51:55,804
Exactly.
1129
00:51:55,804 --> 00:52:03,289
That's why he just And in his mind, he's
probably interpreted the rule differently and
1130
00:52:03,289 --> 00:52:09,449
doesn't consider his forearm being pressed
against his chest as an anchor point even
1131
00:52:09,449 --> 00:52:10,190
though it is.
1132
00:52:10,569 --> 00:52:11,769
It's desperate for him.
1133
00:52:11,929 --> 00:52:18,114
I don't think he would be able to putt if he
didn't find a way to somehow skirt that rule.
1134
00:52:18,575 --> 00:52:19,075
Agreed.
1135
00:52:19,135 --> 00:52:25,295
And in those articles and so forth, as I did a
lot of research around this, I saw that, you
1136
00:52:25,295 --> 00:52:31,530
know, the USGA has talked with Bernhard Langer
as well as guys like Scott McCarron numerous
1137
00:52:31,530 --> 00:52:35,789
times, but there's nothing that they can do
about it because it's this gray area.
1138
00:52:35,929 --> 00:52:40,909
It's kinda like on review, on, like, the NFL or
MLB.
1139
00:52:41,369 --> 00:52:47,614
If the ruling on the field was called one way,
they can't overturn it because there's not
1140
00:52:47,614 --> 00:52:48,755
enough video evidence.
1141
00:52:49,375 --> 00:52:53,234
That's kind of what we're in right now with
this.
1142
00:52:53,614 --> 00:52:59,089
So TrotGolfer says by holding a forearm against
any part of your body to use gripping hand as a
1143
00:52:59,089 --> 00:53:02,630
stable point around which the other hand may
swing the club.
1144
00:53:02,849 --> 00:53:05,010
And that's essentially what he's doing.
1145
00:53:05,010 --> 00:53:09,190
He's he is holding, and you can see it with the
clothing.
1146
00:53:09,394 --> 00:53:12,855
In almost every single image, his hand is off
of his body.
1147
00:53:13,234 --> 00:53:20,275
However, his forearm and wrist are pressing up
against his chest so that he can maintain an
1148
00:53:20,275 --> 00:53:22,639
anchor point in his stroke.
1149
00:53:22,940 --> 00:53:29,260
If you wanna squash it, put a little put a
little camera inside his shirt and, you know,
1150
00:53:29,260 --> 00:53:30,699
because the shirt does puff out.
1151
00:53:30,699 --> 00:53:32,299
I can't even go even saying this.
1152
00:53:32,299 --> 00:53:35,659
It falls away from you when you bend over to
putt.
1153
00:53:35,659 --> 00:53:36,159
Right?
1154
00:53:36,465 --> 00:53:42,545
And that might touch your wrist, and you might
be able to get your forearm this close to but
1155
00:53:42,545 --> 00:53:43,765
not actually touch.
1156
00:53:44,305 --> 00:53:46,785
But it might touch your shirt, and it might
look that way.
1157
00:53:46,785 --> 00:53:47,105
Right?
1158
00:53:47,105 --> 00:53:52,909
Now the difference between touching your body
or your shirt would be massive in terms of the
1159
00:53:52,909 --> 00:53:56,190
yips and being and, like, what he's trying to
use it for.
1160
00:53:56,190 --> 00:53:56,690
Yeah.
1161
00:53:57,389 --> 00:53:59,389
But that's where you run into this gray area.
1162
00:53:59,389 --> 00:54:03,309
There's no way to prove that he's not actually
touching his body based on what we see.
1163
00:54:03,309 --> 00:54:05,875
All you could see is that he's touching his
shirt.
1164
00:54:05,934 --> 00:54:06,974
How far in does it go?
1165
00:54:06,974 --> 00:54:08,414
Is it actually touching his skin?
1166
00:54:08,414 --> 00:54:09,855
Like, put a camera in there.
1167
00:54:09,855 --> 00:54:11,074
Like, prove us wrong.
1168
00:54:14,014 --> 00:54:14,994
says new rule.
1169
00:54:15,135 --> 00:54:17,135
Hands and forearms must touch.
1170
00:54:17,135 --> 00:54:19,614
And this goes into another, like, a bigger
thing too.
1171
00:54:19,614 --> 00:54:26,460
I think that a putter being completely and
radically different in how it's used than the
1172
00:54:26,460 --> 00:54:29,820
rest of your golf clubs, I'm kind of a
traditionalist that way.
1173
00:54:29,820 --> 00:54:29,980
Same.
1174
00:54:29,980 --> 00:54:30,139
You
1175
00:54:30,139 --> 00:54:34,460
should have to make a swing with it like you do
a wedge or a 7-iron or a driver or anything
1176
00:54:34,460 --> 00:54:34,844
else.
1177
00:54:35,244 --> 00:54:39,585
You shouldn't get to the putting aspect of the
game and then be able to do this radically
1178
00:54:39,644 --> 00:54:43,025
biomechanically more efficient thing to get the
ball in the hole.
1179
00:54:43,644 --> 00:54:48,844
It just takes a lot of the skill, and timing
and yeah.
1180
00:54:48,844 --> 00:54:50,750
Just the skill out of what you're doing.
1181
00:54:51,530 --> 00:54:55,289
You're kinda finding a way to kinda cheat, and
they're already doing it with golf clubs.
1182
00:54:55,289 --> 00:54:58,170
Even these zero-torque putters that are out
now, like, this shit's
1183
00:54:58,570 --> 00:55:01,789
Don't don't go there.
1184
00:55:02,424 --> 00:55:08,105
Everybody is going to be using one at some
point or another because the science is there
1185
00:55:08,105 --> 00:55:08,684
on it.
1186
00:55:09,784 --> 00:55:16,184
But even that's, like, really close to being
able to kind of improve over what you're
1187
00:55:16,184 --> 00:55:17,550
naturally capable of doing.
1188
00:55:19,309 --> 00:55:23,969
I agree with you on the length of the club.
1189
00:55:28,110 --> 00:55:29,969
It should not be longer than your driver.
1190
00:55:30,590 --> 00:55:31,090
Correct.
1191
00:55:31,550 --> 00:55:35,865
So I have a big problem against these long
putters.
1192
00:55:35,865 --> 00:55:36,605
Always have.
1193
00:55:37,065 --> 00:55:44,184
I've always said a putter should be a certain
length and max out at, call it, 38 inches or
1194
00:55:44,184 --> 00:55:44,825
something like that.
1195
00:55:44,825 --> 00:55:45,144
Like the
1196
00:55:45,144 --> 00:55:45,785
belly button.
1197
00:55:45,785 --> 00:55:46,585
The belly button.
1198
00:55:46,585 --> 00:55:47,085
Whatever.
1199
00:55:47,144 --> 00:55:47,644
Yeah.
1200
00:55:48,949 --> 00:55:54,309
This whole thing where it's gotten out of
control, especially on the Champions Tour
1201
00:55:54,309 --> 00:55:57,130
because of Bernhard Langer and his success.
1202
00:55:57,429 --> 00:55:59,349
Granted, he's had a ton of success with it.
1203
00:55:59,349 --> 00:55:59,849
Right?
1204
00:55:59,909 --> 00:56:07,055
So I just think that that needs to be a
complete ban where you can, and the one issue
1205
00:56:07,055 --> 00:56:14,255
with the USGA, and I read this from the USGA in
regards to this, is that you can't say when
1206
00:56:14,255 --> 00:56:17,970
it's touching clothing that that is anchoring.
1207
00:56:18,349 --> 00:56:18,849
Okay?
1208
00:56:18,910 --> 00:56:24,990
So they have to rely on the player to be able
to say whether or not they believe that they
1209
00:56:24,990 --> 00:56:25,730
are anchoring.
1210
00:56:25,789 --> 00:56:27,010
And it's up for interpretation.
1211
00:56:27,470 --> 00:56:27,869
Right?
1212
00:56:27,869 --> 00:56:30,190
So that's the hardest part about all of this.
1213
00:56:30,190 --> 00:56:32,744
But do I think that Bernhard Langer is
cheating?
1214
00:56:32,744 --> 00:56:34,664
Do I think that Scott McCarron was cheating?
1215
00:56:34,664 --> 00:56:34,984
Yes.
1216
00:56:34,984 --> 00:56:35,484
Absolutely.
1217
00:56:35,784 --> 00:56:42,905
Like, there's no doubt about it in my mind that
when you see, like, boob being pushed up and
1218
00:56:42,905 --> 00:56:43,864
you've had the yips
1219
00:56:44,559 --> 00:56:44,799
Yeah.
1220
00:56:44,799 --> 00:56:45,299
Yeah.
1221
00:56:45,519 --> 00:56:48,099
You 100% are anchoring that.
1222
00:56:48,799 --> 00:56:50,319
So there's no doubt.
1223
00:56:50,319 --> 00:56:56,179
And I asked Bob Estes on X, and I haven't heard
or seen the comment yet back.
1224
00:56:56,480 --> 00:57:01,824
I want to know, like, what do the officials say
on the Champions Tour about this?
1225
00:57:02,204 --> 00:57:03,164
Or just say, hey.
1226
00:57:03,164 --> 00:57:03,565
Look.
1227
00:57:03,565 --> 00:57:04,304
Long putter.
1228
00:57:05,405 --> 00:57:06,525
You wanna keep doing this?
1229
00:57:06,525 --> 00:57:06,925
That's fine.
1230
00:57:06,925 --> 00:57:11,744
But you are now the only guy that has to putt
with a shirt off.
1231
00:57:11,885 --> 00:57:13,390
You gotta putt with your shirt off.
1232
00:57:13,390 --> 00:57:13,910
Well, that's the thing.
1233
00:57:13,910 --> 00:57:18,510
I don't think the Champions Tour gets as much
publicity around them as the PGA Tour.
1234
00:57:18,510 --> 00:57:23,010
That's why truck golfer saying here, Adam Scott
has a huge gap of air in between his forearm,
1235
00:57:23,070 --> 00:57:29,904
and he really does have more of a he kinda uses
it like a dart thrower where, like, the elbow
1236
00:57:30,125 --> 00:57:38,204
is online, and that's kind of his rocking back
and forth point so that it stays in line with
1237
00:57:38,204 --> 00:57:39,184
where he's putting.
1238
00:57:39,969 --> 00:57:40,849
And I agree.
1239
00:57:40,849 --> 00:57:43,570
Like, Lucas Glover doesn't have that either.
1240
00:57:43,570 --> 00:57:48,710
So I completely agree with both of those
statements around Adam Scott, Lucas Glover.
1241
00:57:49,730 --> 00:57:53,650
It's just that the Champions Tour doesn't get
enough, and I guarantee you, what ends up
1242
00:57:53,650 --> 00:57:58,045
happening is they sit there and go, do we
really wanna make a big issue out of this?
1243
00:57:58,425 --> 00:58:04,505
And for them, it's kinda like, let's just put
this underneath the rug or underneath the
1244
00:58:04,505 --> 00:58:07,164
carpet and just hope it goes away.
1245
00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:09,239
And it kinda did for a long time.
1246
00:58:09,239 --> 00:58:13,579
I mean, it's not until Trot has done a
phenomenal job.
1247
00:58:14,119 --> 00:58:15,880
He has he has dug this one
1248
00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:16,599
out of hell.
1249
00:58:16,599 --> 00:58:18,199
I mean, he got us talking about it.
1250
00:58:18,199 --> 00:58:19,960
So good on you, Trot, for
1251
00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:20,840
He's right.
1252
00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:21,800
Like, I was He's right.
1253
00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:27,714
When we first started working together on here,
and he would bring that up, I even myself up, I
1254
00:58:27,714 --> 00:58:28,594
was like, I don't know.
1255
00:58:28,594 --> 00:58:30,214
Is it really that big of a deal?
1256
00:58:30,514 --> 00:58:34,295
Then you kinda look at all the tournaments this
dude's won and, like, oh, wait.
1257
00:58:34,829 --> 00:58:38,030
If that's the only way he can putt, you know,
it's a huge advantage.
1258
00:58:38,030 --> 00:58:39,489
And once you fit I don't know.
1259
00:58:39,710 --> 00:58:42,829
Like, he's he's beat a lot of people because of
it.
1260
00:58:42,829 --> 00:58:45,090
He's got the most wins on the Champions Tour.
1261
00:58:45,150 --> 00:58:45,390
Yeah.
1262
00:58:45,390 --> 00:58:45,550
So
1263
00:58:45,630 --> 00:58:46,030
That's what
1264
00:58:46,030 --> 00:58:46,590
I'm saying.
1265
00:58:46,590 --> 00:58:46,750
So
1266
00:58:47,070 --> 00:58:50,289
It is a big topic that should be discussed.
1267
00:58:50,430 --> 00:58:55,525
It's just been going on for so long, and
Bernhard refuses to change it because he's
1268
00:58:55,525 --> 00:58:57,704
adamant that he is not breaking a rule.
1269
00:58:57,764 --> 00:58:58,164
Okay?
1270
00:58:58,164 --> 00:58:58,484
Yeah.
1271
00:58:58,484 --> 00:59:03,204
But once again, you have to understand that
he's interpreting the rule in the way that he
1272
00:59:03,204 --> 00:59:04,409
wants to interpret it.
1273
00:59:04,409 --> 00:59:09,609
So in his mind, he's made himself believe that
he is not breaking a rule, and I believe that.
1274
00:59:09,609 --> 00:59:12,510
I believe Bernhard Langer does not think that
he is cheating.
1275
00:59:13,369 --> 00:59:16,989
So it's not something that he feels that he's
doing.
1276
00:59:17,445 --> 00:59:18,644
I guarantee that.
1277
00:59:18,644 --> 00:59:25,364
However, I do believe that it is cheating, and
I do believe that I mean, you can do the
1278
00:59:25,364 --> 00:59:30,489
eyeball test on this one, in my opinion, and
see that the boob is pushed up and that when
1279
00:59:30,570 --> 00:59:31,710
look at the stroke.
1280
00:59:32,010 --> 00:59:33,610
I guess that's the bigger thing.
1281
00:59:33,610 --> 00:59:34,329
Look at the stroke.
1282
00:59:34,329 --> 00:59:37,289
Does this ever move away from the area?
1283
00:59:37,289 --> 00:59:39,130
Like, is this moving independently.
1284
00:59:39,130 --> 00:59:40,430
It doesn't move independently.
1285
00:59:41,050 --> 00:59:43,925
It stays in place with that.
1286
00:59:43,925 --> 00:59:49,445
So there's no that is an anchor, and maybe it's
his German that really messes him up.
1287
00:59:49,445 --> 00:59:51,144
Maybe he reads the English differently.
1288
00:59:51,364 --> 00:59:57,329
Maybe you say that your hand, like, can't cross
a 90-degree angle with your elbow.
1289
00:59:57,410 --> 00:59:58,930
Like, you know, maybe something like that.
1290
00:59:58,930 --> 01:00:00,550
That way there's no confusion.
1291
01:00:00,610 --> 01:00:02,150
Like, there's no way around it.
1292
01:00:02,210 --> 01:00:02,450
Right?
1293
01:00:02,450 --> 01:00:04,289
Like, it can't go above where your elbow's at.
1294
01:00:04,289 --> 01:00:07,250
Maybe it's gotta stay, you know, below a 90.
1295
01:00:07,410 --> 01:00:07,890
I don't know.
1296
01:00:07,890 --> 01:00:09,969
I'm just trying to think of bullshit to get
around it.
1297
01:00:09,969 --> 01:00:11,974
But, yeah, I don't know.
1298
01:00:11,974 --> 01:00:13,375
We should, I don't know.
1299
01:00:13,655 --> 01:00:14,535
The Langer rule.
1300
01:00:14,535 --> 01:00:19,575
I mean, really, like, there should be a rule
that gets put into place so that you cannot do
1301
01:00:19,575 --> 01:00:19,735
it.
1302
01:00:19,735 --> 01:00:25,599
And I think they are like, what's funny about
this with the 10.1b is that they've actually
1303
01:00:25,599 --> 01:00:32,159
created a rule about indirect anchoring
specifically to target somebody like Bernhard
1304
01:00:32,159 --> 01:00:35,440
Langer and Scott McCarron and so forth, but
they do not care.
1305
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:40,734
Like, Bernhard Langer is still doing it, still
absolutely doing it because he knows that this
1306
01:00:40,734 --> 01:00:41,635
is his lifeline.
1307
01:00:41,934 --> 01:00:44,574
If he can't do this, he's screwed.
1308
01:00:44,574 --> 01:00:45,714
He can't make a putt.
1309
01:00:46,734 --> 01:00:48,894
And he's he's good for the Champions Tour.
1310
01:00:48,894 --> 01:00:49,394
Right?
1311
01:00:49,534 --> 01:00:53,190
Like, you know, he's like the Tiger Woods of
the Champions Tour.
1312
01:00:53,190 --> 01:00:54,809
I mean, a lot of people like him.
1313
01:00:55,510 --> 01:00:56,969
So yeah.
1314
01:00:57,989 --> 01:00:58,390
Yeah.
1315
01:00:58,390 --> 01:00:59,289
I don't know.
1316
01:01:00,150 --> 01:01:01,430
What what are we gonna do?
1317
01:01:01,430 --> 01:01:02,869
I mean, nobody's gonna say it.
1318
01:01:02,869 --> 01:01:03,989
They're not gonna do anything about it.
1319
01:01:03,989 --> 01:01:09,505
Well, it's up to us as part of the media to
keep that conversation going to talk about it
1320
01:01:09,505 --> 01:01:11,684
and kinda to push it forward.
1321
01:01:11,984 --> 01:01:16,404
And hopefully, people with even a bigger
platform than us pick this up.
1322
01:01:16,704 --> 01:01:22,989
Well maybe like Subpar Golf or somebody along
those lines, and they don't take the position.
1323
01:01:23,289 --> 01:01:28,989
See, the problem is once you get up to a bigger
platform size, you're so tied to the PGA Tour.
1324
01:01:29,369 --> 01:01:37,224
Like, you're not going to see Colt go and talk
poorly about the rules officials for the
1325
01:01:37,224 --> 01:01:41,144
Champions Tour because he might lose his
broadcasting job.
1326
01:01:41,144 --> 01:01:41,545
Right?
1327
01:01:41,545 --> 01:01:42,025
Right.
1328
01:01:42,025 --> 01:01:46,744
So those are the politics you have to play when
you have a big enough platform that size.
1329
01:01:46,744 --> 01:01:51,519
So that's why we're kind of the perfect size to
be able to talk about this stuff.
1330
01:01:51,519 --> 01:01:54,960
Well, and to Kyle's point, you know, he goes,
well, he's still controlling the face with his
1331
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:55,280
wrist.
1332
01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,780
Well, that wrist, for sure.
1333
01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:04,574
But for the issue that he has, which is the
yips, he's deleting half of the problem by
1334
01:02:04,574 --> 01:02:06,434
taking one arm out of the equation.
1335
01:02:06,494 --> 01:02:14,414
Like, you know, for his particular disease, for
his type of yipping, it lets him get away with
1336
01:02:14,414 --> 01:02:16,829
that and maximize his chance to make more
putts.
1337
01:02:16,829 --> 01:02:17,630
It's not for everybody.
1338
01:02:17,630 --> 01:02:22,029
It's not like saying, well, if he's doing it
and it worked really well, everybody would be
1339
01:02:22,029 --> 01:02:23,069
trying to do it.
1340
01:02:23,069 --> 01:02:27,469
It's not for everybody, but with somebody with
his particular problem, it seems like it's
1341
01:02:27,469 --> 01:02:28,425
helped him a lot.
1342
01:02:28,505 --> 01:02:28,824
Yeah.
1343
01:02:28,824 --> 01:02:33,545
And here's I do wanna clarify one thing here
because Kyle from Car Barn Guns, he's saying
1344
01:02:33,545 --> 01:02:36,525
his forearm may be anchored, but the wrist and
hand isn't.
1345
01:02:36,585 --> 01:02:42,570
But that is exactly what rule 10.1 or 10.1b is.
1346
01:02:42,570 --> 01:02:48,110
It is an indirect anchor, and that is illegal
in the rules of golf.
1347
01:02:48,170 --> 01:02:52,170
So that's where I think Bernhard might not be
understanding English when it comes to that.
1348
01:02:52,170 --> 01:02:56,554
He's just, like, doesn't wanna hear it, doesn't
want to read it, and doesn't believe it.
1349
01:02:56,554 --> 01:03:02,394
And, sure enough, Trot Golfer says there's a
specific rule about the forearm in 10.1b
1350
01:03:02,394 --> 01:03:03,375
section 2.
1351
01:03:03,755 --> 01:03:05,594
And here's the other thing with it.
1352
01:03:05,594 --> 01:03:09,160
There is an exact example of this in the rules
of golf.
1353
01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:10,219
There is a graphic.
1354
01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:17,640
I wish I had grabbed the graphic because it
shows, like, the hand being away and, like,
1355
01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:22,219
literally how Bernhard Langer holds the putter,
and it shows that that is banned.
1356
01:03:22,815 --> 01:03:25,614
So it's like, yeah, you can't you can't do
that.
1357
01:03:25,614 --> 01:03:30,815
And I think somebody has to have the balls to
be able to go in there.
1358
01:03:30,815 --> 01:03:35,054
And I think isn't Bernhard Langer done though,
or isn't he, like, his last tournament coming
1359
01:03:35,054 --> 01:03:35,534
up?
1360
01:03:35,534 --> 01:03:40,719
So they're just happy that he's gonna go be
gone and no longer
1361
01:03:40,940 --> 01:03:42,059
be over.
1362
01:03:42,059 --> 01:03:44,239
The headache is over once he stops.
1363
01:03:44,940 --> 01:03:49,519
But, yeah, he got away with a good one, so it
is what it is.
1364
01:03:49,579 --> 01:03:50,800
And a lot of money.
1365
01:03:51,099 --> 01:03:53,119
It's also a rule that changed.
1366
01:03:53,505 --> 01:03:54,005
Right?
1367
01:03:54,304 --> 01:03:58,385
So it's not as if it started out.
1368
01:03:58,385 --> 01:04:01,444
Like, you used to be able to anchor a long
putter back in the day.
1369
01:04:01,824 --> 01:04:03,344
And why did they change that?
1370
01:04:03,344 --> 01:04:04,484
Because it was cheating.
1371
01:04:04,625 --> 01:04:07,605
For the right people, it made them better
putters.
1372
01:04:07,744 --> 01:04:08,244
Exactly.
1373
01:04:08,704 --> 01:04:09,119
Yeah.
1374
01:04:09,599 --> 01:04:13,300
Anti Lifts says all his wins need an asterisk
now.
1375
01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:19,280
I'm not gonna go that far, but I do think that
it's not right.
1376
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:20,559
Well, he's played in plenty of events.
1377
01:04:20,559 --> 01:04:21,920
It was legal to the PGA Tour.
1378
01:04:21,920 --> 01:04:23,119
He would have gotten called out.
1379
01:04:23,119 --> 01:04:23,599
Yeah.
1380
01:04:23,599 --> 01:04:28,614
I think if he was playing on the PGA Tour, I
think it's a bigger issue.
1381
01:04:28,614 --> 01:04:31,494
I think guys on the PGA Tour know well enough.
1382
01:04:31,494 --> 01:04:33,034
Let's not go down that path.
1383
01:04:33,815 --> 01:04:38,394
So, Trot golfer says, this is his last call
here in Phoenix.
1384
01:04:38,614 --> 01:04:39,734
You guys go with me.
1385
01:04:39,734 --> 01:04:40,054
I might.
1386
01:04:40,054 --> 01:04:41,070
When is it, Trot?
1387
01:04:41,390 --> 01:04:42,670
I ain't going out there with you.
1388
01:04:42,670 --> 01:04:43,489
Fuck, no.
1389
01:04:44,269 --> 01:04:46,610
Should go harass the shit out of that guy.
1390
01:04:47,869 --> 01:04:49,010
I would go.
1391
01:04:49,070 --> 01:04:54,829
I've got no issues with standing next to Trot
while he's just absolutely screaming at Langer,
1392
01:04:54,829 --> 01:04:57,045
holding up his T-shirt.
1393
01:04:57,045 --> 01:04:57,545
November.
1394
01:04:57,764 --> 01:04:58,085
Okay.
1395
01:04:58,085 --> 01:04:59,045
That could be cool.
1396
01:04:59,364 --> 01:04:59,764
Listen.
1397
01:04:59,764 --> 01:05:03,764
I'm trying to get a membership over at Phoenix
Country Club, so I don't know if I really
1398
01:05:03,764 --> 01:05:07,065
should be yelling out things, but I will stand
there.
1399
01:05:07,125 --> 01:05:10,905
Troy, you know what you need to do is go to,
like, a boat store and buy, like, a cheap
1400
01:05:11,309 --> 01:05:13,010
10-pound anchor with a chain.
1401
01:05:13,390 --> 01:05:17,469
And, like, whenever he's, like, walking up to a
green, just, like, be there dragging that
1402
01:05:17,469 --> 01:05:19,090
thing, making noise with it.
1403
01:05:19,469 --> 01:05:22,050
So he looks over, you know, see what I'm
saying?
1404
01:05:22,110 --> 01:05:23,010
Sees the anchor.
1405
01:05:23,070 --> 01:05:23,469
Yeah.
1406
01:05:23,469 --> 01:05:23,969
Yeah.
1407
01:05:25,494 --> 01:05:27,755
I love how you had to explain it.
1408
01:05:28,454 --> 01:05:30,394
That just makes it even better.
1409
01:05:30,614 --> 01:05:32,135
The last thing here.
1410
01:05:32,135 --> 01:05:34,454
So, my verdict is it's cheating.
1411
01:05:34,454 --> 01:05:35,514
What's your last verdict?
1412
01:05:37,029 --> 01:05:37,429
Yeah.
1413
01:05:37,429 --> 01:05:42,389
If it, if it's against the rules and it's
making, it's giving you an edge on the
1414
01:05:42,389 --> 01:05:47,269
competition even if other people don't have
that edge or don't go down that path.
1415
01:05:47,269 --> 01:05:50,775
Like, it's making you better than you should
be, and that's cheating.
1416
01:05:51,014 --> 01:05:51,514
Boom.
1417
01:05:51,734 --> 01:05:52,795
There you go, Troy.
1418
01:05:52,855 --> 01:05:53,674
Alright, folks.
1419
01:05:54,135 --> 01:05:57,194
That is where we are going to wrap this one up.
1420
01:05:57,894 --> 01:05:59,574
We've gone over quite a bit tonight.
1421
01:05:59,574 --> 01:06:05,630
I mean, we talked about the fall series and how
that should be rebranded, because you got new
1422
01:06:05,630 --> 01:06:07,549
guys that are potentially going to win.
1423
01:06:07,549 --> 01:06:11,469
You've got veterans that could win as well, so
you gotta take that into account.
1424
01:06:11,469 --> 01:06:16,429
Went over the 2024 Fortinet Championship in
Napa, California that's happening this weekend.
1425
01:06:16,429 --> 01:06:21,744
We went over LIV Golf Chicago and the story
lines there around the individual player title
1426
01:06:21,744 --> 01:06:22,244
race.
1427
01:06:22,385 --> 01:06:28,565
We've got the top 24 lock zone and the open and
drop zones and how that could become
1428
01:06:28,945 --> 01:06:30,485
controversial in the future.
1429
01:06:30,625 --> 01:06:36,510
The swanee style segment, which we announced a
big promo code this week for 35% off using
1430
01:06:36,510 --> 01:06:44,429
polehookgolf35@checkout@swanies.co, and the
Instagram giveaway for the entire luggage set
1431
01:06:44,429 --> 01:06:47,144
from swanies that I am a big fan of.
1432
01:06:47,625 --> 01:06:50,844
So make sure to follow those instructions and
those rules tomorrow.
1433
01:06:51,385 --> 01:06:56,925
And then we, came to a verdict on Bernard
Langer illegally anchoring his putter.
1434
01:06:57,545 --> 01:06:58,184
Alright, folks.
1435
01:06:58,184 --> 01:06:59,159
We are heading off.
1436
01:06:59,319 --> 01:07:02,859
See you, everybody, and, until next week.
