00:00:16,875 --> 00:00:18,154
I know you can't believe it.

7
00:00:18,154 --> 00:00:20,394
How we are even on air at this point.

8
00:00:20,394 --> 00:00:23,914
It's fantastic stuff, but, we got cameras
everywhere tonight.

9
00:00:23,914 --> 00:00:25,434
We got some perfect lighting.

10
00:00:25,434 --> 00:00:26,154
Absolutely perfect.

11
00:00:26,154 --> 00:00:27,114
This is me right here.

12
00:00:27,114 --> 00:00:27,355

00:00:27,355 --> 00:00:28,234
That's you right there.

00:00:29,579 --> 00:00:30,140
Special bowl.

17
00:00:30,140 --> 00:00:32,299
And then we got the center frame right here.

18
00:00:32,299 --> 00:00:37,979
Of course, all of you that are on right now and
viewing the live, we only got the one camera

19
00:00:37,979 --> 00:00:38,380
angle.

20
00:00:38,380 --> 00:00:38,880
Okay.

21
00:00:39,020 --> 00:00:42,239
So don't expect like we're speaking to the
other cameras.

22
00:00:43,005 --> 00:00:47,505
That is for the full production version that
you gotta catch Thursday mornings now.

00:00:47,564 --> 00:00:53,164

Corey.

29
00:01:01,510 --> 00:01:03,770
We'll have to give him a shout out at some
point.

30
00:01:03,829 --> 00:01:04,069
Yeah.

31
00:01:04,069 --> 00:01:04,730
Like little.

00:01:07,030 --> 00:01:07,430
Yeah.

34
00:01:07,430 --> 00:01:09,349
Corey's doing a phenomenal job, by the way.

35
00:01:09,349 --> 00:01:10,069
Absolutely phenomenal.

36
00:01:10,069 --> 00:01:11,510
I don't get fucking fired.

37
00:01:11,510 --> 00:01:13,135
Just looks great so far.

38
00:01:13,135 --> 00:01:15,395
Absolutely great job so far.

39
00:01:16,174 --> 00:01:17,234
We shall see.

40
00:01:19,454 --> 00:01:21,614
For Maximillian, he thought that was a beer in
my hand.

41
00:01:21,614 --> 00:01:22,495
It is not.

42
00:01:22,495 --> 00:01:23,135
It is not.

43
00:01:23,135 --> 00:01:24,194
It does say Lagunitas.

44
00:01:24,895 --> 00:01:25,349
Yeah.

45
00:01:25,430 --> 00:01:31,049
So I am still on, the water kick, which is
fantastic for me.

00:01:31,349 --> 00:01:32,250
Good for you.

47
00:01:33,349 --> 00:01:34,390
The fake booze.

48
00:01:34,390 --> 00:01:35,290
Fake booze.

49
00:01:35,909 --> 00:01:37,750
Gives a good placebo effect, though.

50
00:01:37,750 --> 00:01:38,594
You feel healthier?

51
00:01:38,674 --> 00:01:39,635
I do feel healthier.

52
00:01:39,635 --> 00:01:40,115
You got it.

53
00:01:40,115 --> 00:01:40,515
You know?

I do.

55
00:01:40,995 --> 00:01:41,314
Yeah.

56
00:01:41,314 --> 00:01:42,855
I mean, I got more energy.

57
00:01:43,395 --> 00:01:45,635
It's definitely, saving me some money.

58
00:01:45,635 --> 00:01:47,895

00:01:48,114 --> 00:01:51,395

00:04:52,774 --> 00:04:53,595
Terrell Hatton.

140
00:04:54,774 --> 00:04:57,435
Sounds like, an NFL player.

141
00:04:58,294 --> 00:04:59,115
Jay Monahan.

142
00:04:59,974 --> 00:05:00,875

00:05:02,375 --> 00:05:03,595
Yasir Al Rumayyan.

153
00:05:17,509 --> 00:05:19,769
We're gonna have to ask the audience for that
one.

154
00:05:20,985 --> 00:05:27,305
So now folks, the second part to our tee off
report is a little segment that I like to call

155
00:05:27,305 --> 00:05:28,365
buttsiana soapbox.

156
00:05:28,665 --> 00:05:30,925

This is called buttsiana soapbox.

So I, and I'm doing this for all of you for the
audience, right?

165
00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:50,365
What is the biggest pet peeves that you have
with a golf partner specifically when you're

166
00:05:50,365 --> 00:05:52,225
riding in a golf cart with somebody?

167
00:05:52,285 --> 00:05:53,105
Pet peeves.

168
00:05:53,485 --> 00:05:54,625
Oh, boy.

169
00:05:55,165 --> 00:05:58,865

The

173
00:06:01,404 --> 00:06:05,960
cooler is not very big, and it's not designed
for fucking water bottles.

174
00:06:06,180 --> 00:06:06,580
K?

175
00:06:06,580 --> 00:06:08,660
If you're not drinking, you got water bottles
out there.

176
00:06:08,660 --> 00:06:11,860
You either drink warm water or bring your own
fanny pack with ice in it.

177
00:06:11,860 --> 00:06:16,199
Keep your waters out of the fucking cooler.

178
00:06:16,414 --> 00:06:18,014
You want little shooters in there?

179
00:06:18,014 --> 00:06:22,975
It's perfectly designed for a 6 pack of beer
with ice on top of it with enough room for some

180
00:06:22,975 --> 00:06:27,294
little shooters and maybe a peanut butter jelly
sandwich or whatever various snacks that you

181
00:06:27,294 --> 00:06:27,854
might want.

182
00:06:27,854 --> 00:06:31,235
Keep your stupid fucking waters out of the
cooler.

183
00:06:32,250 --> 00:06:33,550
There you have it, folks.

184
00:06:34,170 --> 00:06:34,730
What else?

185
00:06:34,730 --> 00:06:35,629
Anything else?

186
00:06:35,850 --> 00:06:36,810
Oh, let's see.

187
00:06:36,810 --> 00:06:39,389
I'm left handed parking on the right side of
me.

188
00:06:39,529 --> 00:06:40,009
Oh.

189
00:06:40,009 --> 00:06:41,529
And then having to do that all

190
00:06:42,169 --> 00:06:43,709
Oh, I forgot you're a lefty.

191
00:06:45,134 --> 00:06:46,355
That's really irritating.

192
00:06:47,055 --> 00:06:47,214
How

193
00:06:47,214 --> 00:06:48,814
many times have I done that to you?

194
00:06:48,814 --> 00:06:50,735
I don't think I think you did it one time.

195
00:06:50,735 --> 00:06:51,295
I think so.

196
00:06:51,295 --> 00:06:51,694
Yeah.

197
00:06:51,694 --> 00:06:53,454
And I'm, like, a good player.

198
00:06:53,454 --> 00:06:54,735
This will never happen again.

199
00:06:54,735 --> 00:06:55,055
No.

200
00:06:55,055 --> 00:06:56,814
Like, you were a little ashamed of yourself.

201
00:06:56,814 --> 00:06:57,954
I I think I apologize.

202
00:06:58,095 --> 00:06:59,555
I go, I'm so sorry, man.

203
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:03,360
So anyways, no.

204
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:08,019
That that and, gosh, fix your ball marks.

205
00:07:08,399 --> 00:07:09,300
Fix your divots.

206
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:16,314
Now fixing your divots because there's 2 types
of grass that we get throughout the year here

207
00:07:16,314 --> 00:07:17,055
in Arizona.

208
00:07:17,595 --> 00:07:22,095
So at one point, you have to fill with sand.

209
00:07:22,555 --> 00:07:26,334
The other times, you wanna replace the actual
divot itself.

210
00:07:26,509 --> 00:07:27,709
When do you replace it?

211
00:07:27,709 --> 00:07:30,050
I thought you always fill it with sand.

212
00:07:30,269 --> 00:07:30,629
No.

213
00:07:30,629 --> 00:07:31,649
So It's Bermuda.

214
00:07:31,949 --> 00:07:32,269
Yeah.

215
00:07:32,269 --> 00:07:38,430
So when I was up at Desert Mountain, you do
want if it's rye grass or so during the

216
00:07:38,430 --> 00:07:40,884
wintertime out here, we oversee.

217
00:07:40,884 --> 00:07:44,185
That's why golf courses shut down for a couple
of weeks in Arizona.

218
00:07:44,805 --> 00:07:48,345
And with the ryegrass, you actually wanna
replace the divot.

219
00:07:48,644 --> 00:07:49,044
K?

220
00:07:49,044 --> 00:07:50,345
Because that can regrow.

221
00:07:50,725 --> 00:07:52,485
When it's Bermuda, it just shreds.

222
00:07:52,485 --> 00:07:52,725
Right?

223
00:07:52,725 --> 00:07:55,444
So during the summertime, you wanna put the
sand down.

224
00:07:55,444 --> 00:07:55,800
Got it.

225
00:07:55,879 --> 00:07:56,199
K?

226
00:07:56,199 --> 00:07:56,519
Okay.

227
00:07:56,519 --> 00:08:04,459
Now if your divot, for instance, with the
ryegrass is or a similar light grass.

228
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:05,180
Right?

229
00:08:05,479 --> 00:08:11,185
You wanna if it is intact, you wanna replace it
and you wanna press it in so that it can

230
00:08:11,185 --> 00:08:12,324
regrow, reattach.

231
00:08:12,625 --> 00:08:14,064
Can we go back real quick Yeah.

232
00:08:14,224 --> 00:08:16,224
To the cart the cartner thing?

233
00:08:16,224 --> 00:08:16,544
Yeah.

234
00:08:16,544 --> 00:08:16,865
We got

235
00:08:17,024 --> 00:08:20,144
Just popped in my head because I had this not
this past weekend.

236
00:08:20,144 --> 00:08:25,629
I've had it before, but, playing with somebody
that you don't know well and you get paired up

237
00:08:25,629 --> 00:08:28,270
with, but that's pretty rare for me these days,
I'm sure for you too.

238
00:08:28,270 --> 00:08:29,009
But Yeah.

239
00:08:29,550 --> 00:08:35,134
Someone that thinks they have a lot more golf
game than they do and insists on bitching or

240
00:08:35,134 --> 00:08:38,254
walking around as though, like a TV camera's on
the whole day.

241
00:08:38,254 --> 00:08:42,335
Like they got, you know, I just don't usually
don't usually hit it right.

242
00:08:42,335 --> 00:08:44,174
You know, I just gotta can't play.

243
00:08:44,174 --> 00:08:45,794
I can't stand that shit.

244
00:08:46,254 --> 00:08:47,134
I can't stand it.

245
00:08:47,134 --> 00:08:51,610
I'm at a point in my life to where it's like,
man, even if you're gonna play bad, have a

246
00:08:51,610 --> 00:08:52,250
great time.

247
00:08:52,250 --> 00:08:52,649
Yeah.

248
00:08:52,649 --> 00:08:53,309
You know?

249
00:08:53,370 --> 00:09:01,850
It's not like I I I really dislike the guys
that end up thinking that they're a pro and

250
00:09:01,850 --> 00:09:06,664
thinking that they're in a pro golf tournament
out there, and, like, every shot matters, and

251
00:09:06,664 --> 00:09:07,964
they get so angry.

252
00:09:08,664 --> 00:09:11,945
And these are the guys that have never probably
played in a golf tournament too.

253
00:09:11,945 --> 00:09:12,445
No.

254
00:09:12,664 --> 00:09:14,825
That's usually it's always those guys.

255
00:09:14,825 --> 00:09:15,384
Like yeah.

256
00:09:15,384 --> 00:09:18,184
So, anyways, just that I just can't stand that.

257
00:09:18,184 --> 00:09:19,404
Just enjoy yourself.

258
00:09:19,610 --> 00:09:19,930
You know.

259
00:09:19,930 --> 00:09:20,730
What do you say?

260
00:09:20,730 --> 00:09:24,170
Like, go you, like, licked a frog or something
and your ego went away?

261
00:09:24,170 --> 00:09:24,649
Oh, yeah.

262
00:09:24,649 --> 00:09:25,290
The bufo.

263
00:09:25,290 --> 00:09:25,769
Various.

264
00:09:25,769 --> 00:09:26,269
Yeah.

265
00:09:26,490 --> 00:09:30,029
Smoke smoke smoke some, Sonoran toad venom.

266
00:09:30,090 --> 00:09:32,250
And, it's called an ego death.

267
00:09:32,250 --> 00:09:33,225
Look it up, folks.

268
00:09:33,304 --> 00:09:33,804
Wow.

269
00:09:33,865 --> 00:09:36,424
And, you basically die and then you come back.

270
00:09:36,424 --> 00:09:41,004
You you meet the creator, you come back, and
you're really a different person at that point.

271
00:09:41,065 --> 00:09:44,024
There's there's no there's no way you can
really get around

272
00:09:44,024 --> 00:09:44,524
it.

273
00:09:44,584 --> 00:09:46,649
Smoking smoking frogs.

274
00:09:46,649 --> 00:09:46,889
Yeah.

275
00:09:46,889 --> 00:09:50,509
The it lasts for, like, 15 minutes, but you
like, you go to eternity.

276
00:09:50,570 --> 00:09:50,889
Yeah.

277
00:09:50,889 --> 00:09:52,009
Like, it's yeah.

278
00:09:52,009 --> 00:09:52,490
It's crazy.

279
00:09:52,490 --> 00:09:53,290
Sounds fun.

280
00:09:53,290 --> 00:09:54,029
Oh, it's

281
00:09:54,169 --> 00:09:55,149
it's a trip.

282
00:09:55,450 --> 00:09:56,090
It's a trip.

283
00:09:56,250 --> 00:09:56,970
Not a boat ride.

284
00:09:56,970 --> 00:09:58,429
You definitely leave your body.

285
00:09:58,490 --> 00:09:59,629
You're definitely gone.

286
00:09:59,690 --> 00:10:00,330
It's tight.

287
00:10:00,330 --> 00:10:00,830
Yeah.

288
00:10:00,934 --> 00:10:02,554
So fun times.

289
00:10:02,615 --> 00:10:04,554
And anything else you wanna add?

290
00:10:04,695 --> 00:10:04,934
No.

291
00:10:04,934 --> 00:10:05,334
I think

292
00:10:05,414 --> 00:10:06,254
I think you nailed it.

293
00:10:06,375 --> 00:10:08,554
Smoking toads, finishing it off with that.

294
00:10:09,014 --> 00:10:09,735
I like it.

295
00:10:09,735 --> 00:10:10,934
That that's where we end the

296
00:10:11,174 --> 00:10:17,019
Whoever, editor, you're looking at this right
now, I'm playing back the first segment.

297
00:10:18,199 --> 00:10:23,879
Probably not gonna be able to use that, but, I
hope you got a laugh out of it at least.

298
00:10:23,879 --> 00:10:26,539
So and you guys that happen to be able to catch
it live.

299
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:27,480
There's no way we're gonna

300
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:28,779
be able to use that though.

301
00:10:30,684 --> 00:10:32,445
I I I think it's gold.

302
00:10:32,445 --> 00:10:33,964
I think it's absolutely gold.

303
00:10:33,964 --> 00:10:34,464
Okay.

304
00:10:34,845 --> 00:10:36,705
I that's so true.

305
00:10:36,845 --> 00:10:37,884
Carry offs hard.

306
00:10:37,884 --> 00:10:40,544
And that's the first ever tee off report with
Butsy.

307
00:10:40,845 --> 00:10:41,345
Okay.

308
00:10:41,404 --> 00:10:41,904
Yeah.

309
00:10:42,684 --> 00:10:43,565
I liked it though.

310
00:10:43,565 --> 00:10:47,200
I felt, like, really stupid and awesome.

311
00:10:47,259 --> 00:10:48,320
It was on you.

312
00:10:48,460 --> 00:10:48,960
Cool.

313
00:10:49,019 --> 00:10:49,519
Yeah.

314
00:10:50,379 --> 00:10:50,879
You

315
00:10:52,940 --> 00:10:53,899
there it is, folks.

316
00:10:53,899 --> 00:10:58,720
The first segment of the tee off, and now here
we go.

317
00:10:58,924 --> 00:11:02,625
We're heading right into the pro golf recap.

318
00:11:03,084 --> 00:11:05,024
And, we're bringing on our guy.

319
00:11:05,084 --> 00:11:07,345
We're bringing on our guy.

320
00:11:07,564 --> 00:11:09,564
If I can figure out how to bring him on here.

321
00:11:09,564 --> 00:11:10,704
Hang on one second.

322
00:11:11,259 --> 00:11:12,779
So you got that lit dog wiener on?

323
00:11:12,779 --> 00:11:15,100
Does he have that dog wiener lit?

324
00:11:15,100 --> 00:11:15,600
Oh.

325
00:11:16,940 --> 00:11:17,440
Yeah.

326
00:11:17,740 --> 00:11:19,179
Look how it is.

327
00:11:19,179 --> 00:11:21,419
We need we need intro music for Brent.

328
00:11:21,419 --> 00:11:21,980
We really do.

329
00:11:21,980 --> 00:11:22,480
Yeah.

330
00:11:23,820 --> 00:11:24,639
Danger zone.

331
00:11:24,860 --> 00:11:25,839
Danger zone.

332
00:11:27,695 --> 00:11:30,174
Highway to the Absolutely.

333
00:11:30,414 --> 00:11:31,315
Danger zone.

334
00:11:31,934 --> 00:11:33,475
Danger we doing, boys?

335
00:11:34,975 --> 00:11:35,294
Gosh.

336
00:11:35,294 --> 00:11:36,134
That's a great question.

337
00:11:36,335 --> 00:11:38,434
Real quiet in my, headphones.

338
00:11:38,919 --> 00:11:39,639
Oh, no.

339
00:11:39,639 --> 00:11:41,500
Remember you're so loud last time?

340
00:11:41,799 --> 00:11:42,440
I'm fine with it.

341
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:43,639
I'll just have to listen a little

342
00:11:43,639 --> 00:11:43,879
more.

343
00:11:43,879 --> 00:11:44,540
Hang on.

344
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:46,379
God forbid.

345
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:48,139
How about now?

346
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:50,040
Go ahead and

347
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:51,394
How about now?

348
00:11:51,394 --> 00:11:51,955
Oh, yeah.

349
00:11:51,955 --> 00:11:52,514
Oh, yeah.

350
00:11:52,514 --> 00:11:53,394
It's only in this As

351
00:11:53,394 --> 00:11:57,575
long as it doesn't reverberate into the
microphone, we'll be okay.

352
00:11:57,634 --> 00:11:59,554
But these headphones are giving them some
problems.

353
00:11:59,554 --> 00:12:04,355
Last time well, it makes sense that your
headphones are giving you problems because last

354
00:12:04,355 --> 00:12:08,569
time we were in studio, as soon as we got done,
you slammed them on the ground.

355
00:12:09,029 --> 00:12:10,870
Oh, shit.

356
00:12:10,870 --> 00:12:13,929
Might be time for some new headphones there,
Putsey.

357
00:12:13,990 --> 00:12:14,490
Sorry.

358
00:12:15,669 --> 00:12:16,169
Oops.

359
00:12:16,629 --> 00:12:17,370
My bad.

360
00:12:18,164 --> 00:12:19,205
All right, Brent.

361
00:12:19,205 --> 00:12:23,684
We've got the pro golf recap and, we're gonna
start off with the Korn Ferry tour

362
00:12:23,684 --> 00:12:31,899
championship, which in my opinion, and I know
you share a similar, sentiment is that that was

363
00:12:31,899 --> 00:12:33,279
the best event this weekend.

364
00:12:33,659 --> 00:12:38,620
Let's, why don't you lead us off here and tell
us a little bit about the golf course they were

365
00:12:38,620 --> 00:12:42,399
playing and, a little bit about the Korn Ferry
Tour Championship.

366
00:12:44,455 --> 00:12:46,215
Well, thanks again for having me on, boys.

367
00:12:46,215 --> 00:12:48,715
Can't wait to be in the studio next week.

368
00:12:50,054 --> 00:12:51,014
But, yeah.

369
00:12:51,014 --> 00:12:53,514
I'm your French league golf resort, Pete
Dicourse.

370
00:12:53,654 --> 00:12:57,919
I met mister Dicorz at the US Team Championship
10 years ago.

371
00:13:00,299 --> 00:13:07,100
And, long story short, mister Dye said to me in
all confidence and honesty, he said they gave

372
00:13:07,100 --> 00:13:09,615
me a blank check, and I spent it all.

373
00:13:10,014 --> 00:13:10,595
Love that.

374
00:13:11,375 --> 00:13:17,855
So he moved more dirt for that golf course than
he had in any other previous courses, what he

375
00:13:17,855 --> 00:13:18,595
said to me.

376
00:13:18,815 --> 00:13:19,695
And That's a lot

377
00:13:19,695 --> 00:13:19,975
of dirt.

378
00:13:20,174 --> 00:13:26,190
With a with a smirk, mister Dye, in his
infinite wisdom, looked at me dead square in my

379
00:13:26,190 --> 00:13:27,649
soul and said, good luck.

380
00:13:28,429 --> 00:13:34,610
And, the scores from, quite possibly some of
the some quite possibly the most competitive

381
00:13:34,750 --> 00:13:37,605
tour in the world, reflected that.

382
00:13:38,084 --> 00:13:45,225
I think the winner won at 9 under par, which
is, only one shot better than the closest

383
00:13:45,365 --> 00:13:48,485
number I think this year was at Raleigh, which
was 8 under.

384
00:13:48,485 --> 00:13:49,764
Kaito Oni So

385
00:13:49,764 --> 00:13:51,464
this was this place was set up.

386
00:13:51,605 --> 00:13:52,004
Yeah.

387
00:13:52,004 --> 00:13:52,504
Raleigh.

388
00:13:52,565 --> 00:13:53,065
Easy.

389
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:53,840
It was easy.

390
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:54,340
It's

391
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,180
over 8,000 yards,

392
00:13:58,000 --> 00:13:59,220
which by the way.

393
00:13:59,279 --> 00:14:00,340
So they, yeah.

394
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,580
Brent, you and I were talking about it.

395
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,985
We love the fact that they actually played a
real golf course this week and that you

396
00:14:07,985 --> 00:14:09,764
actually had to see the guys compete.

397
00:14:10,065 --> 00:14:14,465
And I just think that they are missing the boat
with the Korn Ferry Tour by not having them

398
00:14:14,465 --> 00:14:17,045
play golf courses like this week in and week
out.

399
00:14:18,384 --> 00:14:18,705
Yeah.

400
00:14:18,705 --> 00:14:22,404
I mean, obviously, Freshlick is a pretty
special place.

401
00:14:23,090 --> 00:14:28,370
But as I'm sure you're aware, Matt, being from
from New York, there are loads and loads of

402
00:14:28,370 --> 00:14:33,889
courses in the northeast that are quite
impressive, just in difficulty, but but also in

403
00:14:33,889 --> 00:14:34,370
fairness.

404
00:14:34,370 --> 00:14:36,950
I mean, they're they're just really good solid
golf courses.

405
00:14:37,514 --> 00:14:40,555
And, man, that looked that looked pretty good.

406
00:14:41,115 --> 00:14:43,434
But, well, yeah, I mean, it it was I'll

407
00:14:43,434 --> 00:14:44,195
tell you right now, Brent.

408
00:14:44,315 --> 00:14:45,035
Place and I'll

409
00:14:45,035 --> 00:14:45,675
tell you right now.

410
00:14:45,675 --> 00:14:51,595
There's a place called Pound Ridge just on the,
New York side of Greenwich, Connecticut that,

411
00:14:51,754 --> 00:14:52,860
Pete Dye did.

412
00:14:52,860 --> 00:14:57,659
I mean, that could be another spot that they
take everybody, like, to that would be a great

413
00:14:57,659 --> 00:15:00,079
Korn Ferry spot because there's nothing there.

414
00:15:00,220 --> 00:15:00,620
Right?

415
00:15:00,620 --> 00:15:01,919
There's no real clubhouse.

416
00:15:01,980 --> 00:15:03,259
There's nothing really there.

417
00:15:03,259 --> 00:15:05,839
It's just a golf course, and it's phenomenal.

418
00:15:07,325 --> 00:15:07,725
Yeah.

419
00:15:07,725 --> 00:15:15,004
I mean, one of the things that's gonna continue
to come up, a lot is money, and that is

420
00:15:15,004 --> 00:15:15,565
something that

421
00:15:15,725 --> 00:15:16,125
Is what?

422
00:15:16,284 --> 00:15:17,804
The PGA Tour is money.

423
00:15:17,804 --> 00:15:18,304
Oh.

424
00:15:18,524 --> 00:15:26,220
And that is something that the PGA Tour is very
is very limiting when it it limits, how much it

425
00:15:26,220 --> 00:15:29,340
puts on or puts into the Korn Ferry Tour.

426
00:15:29,340 --> 00:15:35,340
And the and so they spend somewhere to tune a
$20,000,000, and they don't get any any of that

427
00:15:35,340 --> 00:15:35,580
back.

428
00:15:35,580 --> 00:15:40,535
And, obviously, as a non for profit
organization, they can they should have those

429
00:15:40,535 --> 00:15:45,495
types of things, and $20,000,000 really isn't a
whole lot, considering I mean, to give you an

430
00:15:45,495 --> 00:15:50,210
example, Scottie Scheffer, I I think, made some
somewhere to the tune of, like, what what did

431
00:15:50,210 --> 00:15:50,570
he make?

432
00:15:50,570 --> 00:15:53,290
50 or $60,000,000 this year or something like
that?

433
00:15:53,290 --> 00:15:54,970
Something ridiculous, that's for sure,

434
00:15:54,970 --> 00:15:55,550
in Panama.

435
00:15:55,929 --> 00:15:56,910
More than 20,000,000.

436
00:15:58,090 --> 00:15:59,769
Not a lot of money according to Butsy.

437
00:15:59,769 --> 00:16:05,684
But, you know, but, yeah, I mean, it's a French
Lick is a special place, the the hometown of

438
00:16:05,924 --> 00:16:06,664
Larry Bird.

439
00:16:07,845 --> 00:16:12,164
But the most disappointing part about the golf
course is that nobody showed up.

440
00:16:12,164 --> 00:16:16,804
And the reason why they didn't show up is
because French Lick is a unbelievably small

441
00:16:16,804 --> 00:16:22,089
town, and I believe it has one hotel, and the
hotel is a 150 years old.

442
00:16:22,470 --> 00:16:29,029
And it's a it's a small farm town, and and,
what a better place to put on one of the most

443
00:16:29,029 --> 00:16:33,904
competitive tours in the world than, in the
middle of nowhere, You know, because it's not

444
00:16:33,904 --> 00:16:36,225
like it really was really on TV in the 1st
place.

445
00:16:36,225 --> 00:16:36,384
So

446
00:16:36,544 --> 00:16:37,684
That's what's crazy.

447
00:16:38,304 --> 00:16:44,625
I mean, I was watching it, and all of a sudden,
in the middle of the round, I'm I'm tracking a

448
00:16:44,625 --> 00:16:49,149
player that I I was telling you about, Kappin,
and I'm like

449
00:16:49,690 --> 00:16:50,170
Sapon.

450
00:16:50,170 --> 00:16:50,570
Yep.

451
00:16:50,570 --> 00:16:51,070
Sapon?

452
00:16:51,129 --> 00:16:52,009
Is that how you say it?

453
00:16:52,009 --> 00:16:52,509
Sapon?

454
00:16:52,570 --> 00:16:53,410
Is it Is it Frank?

455
00:16:53,529 --> 00:16:53,690
I may

456
00:16:53,690 --> 00:16:53,850
say it.

457
00:16:53,850 --> 00:16:54,809
I may c a p I

458
00:16:54,809 --> 00:16:55,170
n or s.

459
00:16:55,290 --> 00:16:57,090
Frankie Sapon The third.

460
00:16:57,210 --> 00:16:59,049
With a c, but it's there's yes.

461
00:16:59,049 --> 00:17:00,284
Frankie Sapon the third.

462
00:17:00,365 --> 00:17:02,444
Frankie Sapin the third.

463
00:17:02,444 --> 00:17:03,245
It's gonna be important.

464
00:17:03,245 --> 00:17:08,464
So I'm watching I'm watching him, and all of a
sudden, they cut to the, champions tour.

465
00:17:08,845 --> 00:17:10,044
I'm like What kind of bitch?

466
00:17:10,044 --> 00:17:10,644
What is that?

467
00:17:10,684 --> 00:17:11,585
Got a second.

468
00:17:11,644 --> 00:17:16,369
I'm in the like, I'm actually really getting
into it, watching this kid out there, and all

469
00:17:16,369 --> 00:17:19,890
of a sudden, they cut to that and the, 3rd
round coverage.

470
00:17:19,890 --> 00:17:21,970
I'm like, what the hell is going on here?

471
00:17:21,970 --> 00:17:25,429
I would rather show Rocco with the weirdest
looking mouth in golf.

472
00:17:27,555 --> 00:17:27,875
It's a lot

473
00:17:27,875 --> 00:17:28,455
of cigars.

474
00:17:29,394 --> 00:17:34,914
But, yeah, I mean, the the the overarching
theme really in all of my conversations over

475
00:17:34,914 --> 00:17:40,035
the last probably 3 to 5 years after post post
COVID when they were a little bit more open

476
00:17:40,035 --> 00:17:44,200
about how much they how much money they were
spending on COVID, and how much money was

477
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:48,599
actually coming into the Korn Ferry tour, it
goes the PGA Tour, the Champions Tour, and then

478
00:17:48,599 --> 00:17:49,740
the Korn Ferry Tour.

479
00:17:50,839 --> 00:17:57,000
And so we're the last to feel any sort of
budget surplus, and we're also the first to

480
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:58,460
feel any sort of cuts.

481
00:17:59,585 --> 00:18:06,225
And, I mean, you know, Ryan, Ryan French put
out that article, about the, shortening of

482
00:18:06,225 -
