We haven't been back in a long time.
It feels like it's been a long time since we all been together.
I haven't been to my apartment in almost like two weeks.
And you just moved, right?
Yeah, I just moved.
So you haven't really been there.
I haven't been home in, yeah, like nine days.
You got detained.
I got detained last night.
It's been a crazy, you know, it's been a crazy week.
I'm happy to be back.
I'm kind of a zombie right now, but I'm pulling through it big time.
You guys all walked off the elevator today and it was just, it was.
Yeah, and I feel like I haven't talked.
The Walking Dead.
I haven't talked golf in a long time.
It's been like mainly just Super Bowl and football and just like content.
just going 100 miles an hour.
And, you know, I was looking for, I was, I was, I was keeping my eye on things all week,
even though it was like the busiest week of the year.
I was keeping my eye on things.
I saw, I saw, you know, Ricky and stuff.
So I'm excited to talk about this.
We got a ton to get into.
A lot of stuff.
A lot of stuff.
In our world.
It is wild because we've got this world, this content world that we do at Barstool outside
of golf.
And we've been busy as fuck in that world.
It makes you forget, like, what's going on in the actual world.
They're, there, from the time at, like, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
You forget what day, time.
Like, you're just constantly.
running to do things doing guests doing radio and then like you look at your phone you're like
oh yeah like what happened today i haven't been home i was looking it's february 4th i haven't been
home since january 25th that was the last time i was home so after this business of the podcast
is the last thing between us and going home we have daniel kang on this show anybody who doesn't know
or anybody who's kind of a newer listener we've had daniel kang on twice she's the number 18th ranked
woman golfer in the world lady golfer she's cool and
as shit.
She's hilarious.
We first had her on like two years ago after she won the KPMG women's PGA championship,
major championship, not to brag.
We had her on like two days after that.
She was hilarious.
This is the third time we've had her on.
And once again,
she's absolutely phenomenal.
She's very, very funny.
She's the people's women's golfer.
She's sort of like R. Kisner to the LPGA tour.
Yeah.
This is my favorite time having her on.
There's a lot of Dick Trophy talk.
People like that.
A lot of Dick Trophy chatter.
She's a cool.
She's a cool check.
She's very cool.
She is awesome.
So stick around.
We got about 40 minutes with Danielle Kang towards the end of this.
Speaking of guests, the reason we haven't chatted for a while is we had the Bubba Watson stuff last week.
I was at Bubba's home course.
Very interesting developments.
Bubba has probably been, look, we had JT on.
We've been hard on JT.
Bubba, though, is the longevity, the passion with which we've been calling Bubba out for stuff that we don't like.
It has been years.
And years of that, the internet has turned hard on Bubba Watson for several years.
Now we've done multiple shows where we've talked about image-wise,
maybe the worst thing that happened to Bubba Watson was winning the Masters
because he just became so much more prolific.
And with that, people kind of didn't like a lot of what they saw.
I don't know how you boys felt about it, but a couple things.
One, so this Bubba Watson thing was set up several months ago.
It was actually going to happen in November and then got pushed off until waste management.
week. But I went out there. It was a solo mission. They were sort of like we have one extra spot in our
foursome and then we're also willing to do a little bit of a sit down interview. Obviously, I was like,
yep, let's do it. My thinking going in was he obviously, we got Frankie's alarms going out.
Definitely, maybe the third second time that's happened. That's the pizza review. He's got to go up on
Instagram. Did you post the pizza?
I posted it. Why do you put the alarm you always posted? No, I get it. It's a
snooze, right? Like I hit it real quick
when I'm up there. I don't know, man. I don't know why
it's happening to me. Go on. Anyways.
So,
so Baba invites me to his
home club, Estancia.
Top 70 course, unbelievable name.
Estancia. I was saying it Astantia
at Estancia at first. That's insane. You were trying to
church it up like Frankie Brella does. Astonia. It just didn't
work. Estancia. Not like, I wasn't
pronouncing it like Chia pet, but I was saying
Estancia. And it's Estancia, apparently.
Anyways. Sounds like the name of like a beautiful
foreign woman. Astonchia.
Yeah, I agree.
Like, that could be in the new Aladdin.
That could be like Aladdin's girlfriend.
Or it's like a girly meeting Game of Thrones.
Estancia.
Yeah.
She could be from like this other part of the world, similar to Calisi, but like a new area.
Calicia and Estancia go to see.
There she's across the narrow sea.
Correct.
And she's beautiful.
She works in a brothel.
Boys, let me tell you this.
Estancia was beautiful.
This place is like up high perched on like this high hilltop or little mini
mountain, if you want to call it.
There's a bunch of views overlooking.
the city. So obviously they kind of, they kind of warm me up, peppered me up for this whole thing.
Going in. Okay. When somebody, when Bubba invites me out there and I know we're going to do
an interview and we're going to play golf at his home club, obviously he's not going to be a dickhead
to me. So I know going out he's going to be nice. You got, you're getting whined and dined.
You know, well, I know he's going to be nice. However, a big part of me thought he's still going to
be a little bit of an introverted weirdo. He's going to be awkward in conversation. Maybe he'll
kind of play his own ball and like not really worry too much about what we're doing and we'll have
a little bit of interaction here and there he'll be a nice enough guy because that's obviously the reason
I'm out here and then we'll do our interview and we'll go about our way that is where I was very
surprised was bubba was not awkward at all I was talking with kisner about it last night and kis was
like yeah bubba's good people he's like i like bubba's always like nice guy he's good to chat with
blah blah blah blah blah was funny like so jake and i rolled in jakes here our producer jake for
anybody who doesn't know jake and i roll into the clubhouse it's like noon
11 o'clock noon something like that last monday we roll into the clubhouse it's like
bubba ted scott and like five other people that are all part of bubba's team at lunch they've got
two chairs for us we sit down we're just like breaking bread with like the wop the watson
crew yeah that's a scene and they're chit-chatting about the champions dinner bubba's telling
funny stories about like him and tiger giving each other looks across the table at the champion's
dinner at the masters like like giving each other little facial expressions reacting to the food
based on who the winner was that year.
He starts telling these stories,
and him and Ted Scott are, like,
interact and they're chit-chatting.
So it's very clear right away,
like, oh, these two don't fucking hate each other.
Interesting.
And obviously,
the pray for Ted Scott,
all that,
which we discussed.
So then we play the 18 holes.
We have a whole video
that's going to come out from that.
We filmed everything.
We filmed basically every shot.
We had a camera crew out there.
Bubble was chirping me a little bit.
We had some back-and-forth.
You're going to see what he's like in a practice round.
You're going to see what he's like
putting a brand-new putter in the bag.
You're going to see what it's like,
him hitting the golf ball up close.
I said this last time, but he out drove me by 61 yards on one hole,
where I legitimately hit a very solid drive.
I think I would call it like a 9 out of 10 drive for me.
It went 282, Bubba hit one 3.43.
That doesn't make any sense.
I mean, imagine he hit a good drive, 282.
With that frame, man?
Dude, he roast the ball.
You were telling me, like, he'll, like, aim 50 yards to the right.
And you would be like, where's Bubba about to hit this ball?
And it just, like, ends up right down the middle.
And in desert golf, it's not like you can just blast it anywhere.
Like, Desert golf, if you miss where the grass stuff is, you're just fucked.
Right.
Like, the ball's out of play.
You're in, like, the desert with bushes and jackpins.
Right.
You just can't even play golf from there.
So it's not like, you know, some wide open lynxie golf course.
He's aiming 30 yards right and just hitting these gigantic cuts.
On the 631 yard, I think it's par 5, like 13th hole out of Estancia.
He hit driver iron until like 20 feet.
It was just, it was insane.
And to hook the, and to like shape the ball that much and to be that confident, like, I guarantee,
I haven't seen the footage yet, but I'm assuming he just like ropes it 30 yards, 40 yards to the right and just picks up the tee and walks away.
And you're all like looking at the ball like, where's this ball going?
And then it just ends up right in front of the green.
Dude, every time.
It's insane.
I could not believe how accurate he was off the tee.
He, so I was saying this too, he legit, he didn't make a putt all day, okay?
Couldn't putt to save his life.
Actually, look pathetic with the putter.
I don't want to say anything.
It was the first question I asked you.
I was like,
is seeing him putt like one of the most incredible things ever?
Because you would assume when you're playing with a professional golfer at the level of a Bubba Watson
that like when you're 10 feet and in like everything goes in.
Like I'd just be laughing out loud.
Like, oh, this is in.
Don't get me wrong.
Like he's a professional golfer.
So his putting's not as bad as like bad golfers.
Right.
Obviously he's professional fucking golfer.
He's one.
He's the top 20 guy in the world.
But for that level.
But dude, like he too, he had this new putter in the bag.
He's trying like the Bryson putter,
and he had never putted with it before.
He putted on the practice screen for like five minutes before the round
and then just put it in play and literally put it in play this week at the waste management
and finished where he finished.
A five.
And he putted terribly in the round we played together.
He played from 7,300 yards out of Estancia.
He shot seven under par.
Didn't make a putt all day.
So if he's on on the green, he's like shooting our 59.
I don't know how he wouldn't break 60.
It's not like this course was easy.
I mean, it was long as shit.
It was crazy.
He um so he his team I was kind of talking with a cut like his agent this week of the waste management
I was like man I'm stunned that he just put that putter in the bag because he didn't even putt well with it when we played
and it's just new and he'd never even try it he's leaning up against his lead arm and stuff it's like a long putter all this stuff and he was like well
he's never finished inside the top hundred in putting on the pGA tour so we figure if he puts a new putter in the bag and it's weird or awkward can't get any worse
That's a good approach
I was like
Well that actually makes a lot of sense
He had one moment
Where we did get a couple
Like real life looks at Bubba
Being like frustrated on the golf course
Even in what he called was like a hit and giggle
Which I loved because it was authentic
He calls it a what?
A hit and giggle
How did that come up a conversation
Like oh that's just a hit and giggle
So it was actually during the podcast
We were chatting
And I was like oh yeah
During like our practice round today
I were going to call and he goes
Oh we call that a hit and giggle
It's a hit and giggle
It's a hit and giggle
giggle.
Hitting giggle.
Such a bubba thing to say.
It's a very bubba thing to say, and it's such a way, like, it makes itself.
The difference is, like, I say skull fuck, and he says hit and giggle.
Correct.
It's like the huge difference right there.
There's, yeah, there's anger inside of you, a lot of it.
More than him, I would.
Like, I don't say, like, uh, I peel, like, I peel, like, I peep, yeah, but
hit and giggle is, like, a friendly fun thing.
A skull fuck is a horrible thing that ruins your life.
I know, but I'm just, like, I don't have a word for when I, like, I get angry on
a T-box or whatever, but like, I'm just saying, I would put a little more, you know,
jagged edge on the end.
And he's putting, like, rainbows and butterflies at the end of it.
Like, hit and giggle.
I see, like, my little pony going on top of, like, a rainbow.
Yeah, I mean, I get, you're doing your whole, like, you know, I get the someone that hasn't
met and played golf at Bubba Watson.
I mean, we're going to do this now until he calls up and says, we're going to do this now
until Bubba Watson calls up the radio show, it calls up the podcast and he's like, Frankie,
you're a little bitch.
Let me say that.
That's where this ends.
Because I've hit at Bubba Watson for years as well.
And my takeaway from everything was,
just like all the listeners where
the closer we get to these guys
I like these people
and that's unfortunate
are they dragging us in just to get
I have.
Here's the thing.
Here's the thing.
You can't hide for seven hours
who you are.
You'd have to be a real sociopath to do that.
Right.
I get that like if I get when I would get
sure for meeting Bryson for like five minutes
on the driving range, sure you could put on a show that.
Right.
But when you play golf like that,
that's why a lot of people love golf for business meetings
stuff like that.
When you go for four and a half hours in the golf course somebody, you're going to see them upset.
You're going to see them happy.
You're going to see them with their buddies.
You're going to see them in all kinds of different ways.
And you can't really hide.
And then we did the lunch beforehand and all that.
So for me, and again, I went in knowing, like, all right, he's going to try to church you up.
He's going to try to be, like, friendly and rehab all that stuff.
By way, we're going to come up with, like, a term for what we're doing to all.
We have to call them.
Yeah.
Image rehab.
That's too.
I had a good one.
It was like the foreplay.
relationship
renaissance tour
wow that's a mouthful
that's a mouthful
it's a lot
the four play
renaissance for what it was it
the four play
relationship renaissance
no that's like
in iron man where he's got
that really long name
they're like you gotta chop it
yeah you just got chop it down
you got chop it
I'm just throwing things up
what is it was in a final draft
what are the letters of that
four play
f-pr-r-t
too much
too much
yeah I'm just workshoping
I can just remember
a couple years ago
Bubba Watson did like a 60 minutes
piece I don't
remember that at all
and he was
super awkward on that so I was stunned
that he was as cool and as
engaging in the interview as he was
it was surprising to
me how I'm not surprised but I guess
it made a lot of sense how well he and Ted
Scott get along I mean they're just like
best buddies right they played golf
together they rode in the cart the whole time
they're ripping off each other they're making jokes
off each other and they just clearly were
like a very tight team now
you see that for
seven hours eight hours but
I guess on the other side of the argument is
like you're saying that you saw them and like that that is the real bubba but like we've seen
bubba also are you are you saying that like what we see on tv when he just like berates his
caddy and like and like everyone on the tour like despises this guy like that's not bubba well so
essentially the way that he explained it was like when i miss a putt and i say like oh teddy
i'm not blaming teddy scott he's like i'm saying as like a team like oh man it's my god can you
believe that that missed, like file that away.
We need to file that away that that broke that way.
And like, we're in this together.
Rather than blaming Teddy, he was just saying in the same way that you might be like,
oh, like Trint Daddy, like after you miss a putter or something like that is the way that he
explained it.
And then when, you know, and then the other thing that he talked about was like, well,
if somebody comes and spends all day with me and they kind of see the real type of person
I am versus if I play 72 holes of tournament golf and they capture a seven second
clip, like that might make me or that will make me look like an asshole.
And then another example they used was like, if you went out and played golf, like,
if I went out and played golf with my brother and a camera crew came in, they could film
and capture a couple five or ten or fifteen second clips that would make it look like my brother
and I fucking hate each other.
Right.
When in reality, like, my brother's my best friend.
Yeah.
But like you have that brotherly, like you don't, you're not sitting there all the time super,
cautious and concerned about his feelings.
You're just like, that's your boy.
You're just reacting emotionally.
So that was sort of his explanation.
People could take it however they want.
Again, like just having met and like been there for longer than just five minutes,
that was my takeaway.
Now, when I still watch bubble play,
there's still certain reactions that he have that turn me off big time,
where I think he comes off like a whiny baby and very unlikable on the golf course.
Having like seen it up close,
I have a different interpretation of it to a degree.
But still,
And that's the same way with JT, too.
I still think J.T. comes off a little whiny on the golf course.
And I think it's very distasteful, 100%.
However, like, when you get somebody, and I do think that they're much more open in our environment, like JT, obviously was with all of us.
Bryson obviously was with all of us.
And I think a lot of the reason people love the Bubba interviews because he was with me as well.
And they were, like I said, riven off each other and all that.
So that was sort of my takeaway was that he wasn't as awkward and, like,
like introverted as I thought he was going to be.
He was very chit-chatty.
That was, again, confirmed with Kiz.
Kiz was like, you know, like, yeah, he gets a horrible rap.
Like, yeah, there's certain parts about him that are a little weird.
Fine, whatever.
But Kiz was like, no, he's always been good people like and whatnot.
So again, like those are kind of the examples that I'm going off of.
I've had other people, too, say, like, well, you can catch him on a really good day.
And apparently you can catch him on a really bad day.
Yeah.
So it's obviously more complicated than just one like, oh, I had a good time playing golf and the guy's perfect now.
but from my experience
and he also got to realize during the interview
I mean Jake was there for it
during the interview it's me Ted Scott
Bubba and legitimately
five people that are all on his team
two feet off frame just sitting there watching us
so I was like well Jesus Christ
yeah that's tough
it was tough
that takes it away from like
you know I guess a lot of the ways
that we do interviews or the way that we
interact with athletes that
is appealing to our fans is that we
do it as if we're sitting at a bar, right?
And like, you're just sitting with one of your boys.
And, like, when you're sitting in front of, like, a guy's management team under, like,
the bright lights of, like, you know, it's like, like, like, you're saying, like, all
the people in his team just sitting in chairs, like, basically stadium seating, just watching
you ask every question.
That's like, that's not the, that's not the ideal bar stool scenario on which to ask it.
So it's like, you're not going to get those, like, a hundred percent.
And, like, if I could do it over again, I would have said to them beforehand, hey, like,
I'll be honestly, in order for this to go the way that we.
Like in order for it to just be authentic as authentic as possible, you guys should probably just step outside.
Like I'd find myself asking my question and looking over and being like, oh my God, are they like writing something down?
Like, no, I shouldn't be like that.
And don't get me wrong.
Like that, I don't think it really played much of an influence, but it is important to just say that that was the fact.
And I had spent the whole day with those people too.
They were out on the course with us.
They were grabbing drinks with us here and there.
So like we had built relationships at that point.
It wasn't just this like business transaction.
We had become friends and all that.
but if I could do it over again, I probably would have said, like, hey, guys, do you mind if you're just not here during this?
And we'll probably, and because of how well it went, we'll probably get that opportunity now.
It's like, you make a relationship with these guys.
Like Bubba now, like, knows that this is a place that he can go and talk and, like, and come off, like, with people actually liking him.
Just like we've done with J.T. and Bryson, where it's like, all right, now I do want to go to these guys and talk.
Right. And, and again, like, I guess the biggest takeaway for me was,
that he just he wasn't standoffish he was chit-chatty he was conversational he didn't just treat
it like all right i guess this media guys here that's kind of like right that that has a decent
following so i'll be nice to him because that you just can't fake that for seven hours i just don't
think that's not i agree he was and again jake was there for the whole thing he was like showing me
different views after every t's like if you look over here rigs like you can see this stadium over there
that's like 50 miles away, this, that.
Like, he was just very engaging, which that surprised me.
I knew he'd be nice.
I didn't think he'd be that engaging.

playing with him.
Have you ever played with Parsie Alley?
Did you ever play alongside him?
Yeah, when we did the Mulligan Challenge.
Right, right.
So, and you've been next to Kiz.
I don't think you've ever...
This was the first time I'd ever actually play golf with a professional,
like a PGA tour professional.
Now, but, like, it's a pretty good one to start off.
Now, that's, it's insane.
But my question is, like,
when you see him hit the ball and strike the ball,
could you notice a difference between the way he plays up close as you do, like,
kids?
Like, is there that much of a jump?
Because he is like one of the top golfers in the world as opposed to kids who like just find
I mean well the only reason I would say yes is because they play such a different game right
his is Mr. Consistency right kids hits it straight kids makes a million puts he rolls the rock
kids not going to blow your dick off with like the way he hits him off the tee but like where brazen
Bubba does Bubba's like holy shit right so I would say like when I play with parzi ali versus
kids even like yeah obviously kisner's way tighter right and whatnot but they I mean if you
went out on any random Saturday with those two guys you might not be able to tell
much of a difference.
They both just pure the golf ball.
Right, right, right.
Now, obviously, over 72 holes, like Kisner's going to have much more consistency,
and he's just a professional at the highest level.
So he's going to, you know, you might add it up and be like, well, I can't believe
Kiz beat Parsiali by 12 shots, but he did.
Whereas Bubba up close and in person, I mean, it's stunning.
He plays a stunning game.
He plays lightning fast.
I mean, he's stunning.
Yeah, he was a lightning fast.
You look at it.
Oh, my God.
Like, he fucking was on the team.
We're putting out, basically.
and then you could hear his cart,
and then he's just on the TV.
I mean, he's stunning to watch on TV.
I can't imagine what that's, like, just right there.
Dude, his game on TV is insane.
And he had three, I think, three different parts,
two part threes and one, like,
mid or short iron approach on a par four,
where he landed the golf ball within six inches of the hole.
Like his divot, or his ballmark,
was within six inches of the hole.
And he just walked up and just tapped it.
It was crazy.
One time in the part three,
I don't want to give away the video.
But the second he made contact with the ball, he goes, oh, good, I don't want to put.
And it almost flew into the hole on a part through.
It was crazy.
It was crazy.
And again, like those moments on TV would have come off incredibly dushy, maybe.
But he just in the middle of the round, like, it was funny.
He was, we were just chit-chatting about like, oh, you think it's this club or that club, Teddy?
He's like, I guess we're going to give this one a whirl.
And then as soon as he hits it, he makes that comment, like, oh, I don't even want to put.
Like, it was very conversational and funny.
But I remember thinking, like, had that been careful.
captured on TV, I would have been like, what a
doucheback. And I wonder, maybe in the back of my head
I've always kind of thought that, but then it
is kind of just fun to hate somebody sometimes.
You got to have villains. You know what I mean? A lot of people
are tweeting us like, what are we going to, we need to build a new...
We're knocking out our villains.
We've done three of them. Like, Polter would be the only one who we
haven't knocked out yet. Good news. I think we got a new
one who's back and his name's Sergio
Garcia. Oh, yeah. I think he
is just catapulted himself
into the villain game. Stunning
stuff from Sergio Garcia that I'm seeing.
I got to be I I I rescind all of my positive stuff I said about Sergio Garcia
Oh my God when he won as a Masters and we were there we're at the house
We were watching and you were rooting for him I was rooting against him and I wanted to just slap you
I fucking rooted for him because like I was there I got caught up in the moment
That's right I kind of I waved I waved my hat like I was a 1940s like family
No like you were at the Francis we met feels pretty good two years later to have feel you know you're coming back around
I can't believe I got off the Sergio Garcia sucks train
He is the worst.
Well, and also, I kind of, I didn't ever stop hating him,
but you get to the point where it's like he's won,
he got his major championship,
maybe he's going to relax now,
maybe he'll ride off in the sunset,
he got married and all that.
And then you come to find out,
he's just the big of an asshole as he always was.
I don't comprehend.
So for anybody who isn't caught up,
it broke yesterday,
Saturday.
It broke Saturday that he got a,
he got decued from this European tour
event. They're playing in Saudi Arabia, which is a whole thing in and of its own massively
controversial, as you can imagine, as you should know from all the politics and the human
human rights issues and all of that. He's playing in Saudi Arabia. It's like a brand new golf course.
They've never hosted a golf tournament before ever. I mean, it's Saudi fucking Arabia.
He also, I was looking at he had an, um, he was coming off of, I think, like five or something
consecutive top tens. So he's been playing.
in great golf. He obviously won the
Masters just a couple of years ago. He got
married, I think, shortly after that.
So, and on paper,
Sergio Garcia's life's going great and coming
into this tournament, things were going
well. It breaks that he got DQed,
kicked out of the tournament for purposely
damaging a bunch of greens out of frustration.
Five different greens.
He was dragging his feet on the greens
with his spikes on to like
shred the greens apart.
What is going on with this guy? DQued from
the tournament. Throwing a fucking temper tantrum like he's
six-year-old.
But that's not even a tantrum because five greens, I mean, you can't just play five greens in two seconds.
Like, that's an hour.
Is he like muttering to himself?
Like, I'm just going to, like, as he's just like scratching these greens up.
So then this video comes out yesterday of him.
This was like right before the green scraping incident.
He's in a bunker.
He hits his bunker shot and then immediately just loses his fucking mind.
That starts swinging his club against the sand.
Then he does like a big shovel scoop move.
I thought he was done when he was
He was kind of flailing around
And then yeah he kind of stopped for a second
And then drew like a big line in the bunker
And just walked out and set a bunch of swear words in Spanish
He just three absolute vicious swings at the sand
One one way the other way
The other way back I mean it's it's one of the crazy
It's an unbelievable outbursts
The fact that he gets that wasn't that bad of a shot
No it wasn't what was he like five feet away from the pan
What do you want to do? What do you want to do? Do we know a position he was in
At this point of the tournament?
Here's what I do know
He had just come off birdie, birdie.
Interesting.
So he's like on a run and have that type of temperate.
What is he thinking at a moment like this?
This guy's been around so long to know that this is going to come about bad for him.
How do you let your emotions get the best of you in Saudi fucking Arabia?
Like, of all places, they're just like, why do you give a fuck that much to, like, throw a temper tantrum like this?
You know it's just going to make bad press for you.
He's getting an appearance fee to be there.
By the way, I feel like I want to be woke on that.
How long do you have to play to be too qualified to get the appearance fee?
Like, was he just like, I'm going to get kicked out now.
I played my two first rounds, and I'm good to go.
I'm out of here.
You think that's where it could have been?
I think maybe.
Even then, he's still a giant cock sucker because he's dragging his cleats across the green.
That's the worst.
That doesn't make that guy.
I'm watching her right now.
People just keep posting it.
Our friends at Supreme Golf just posted it.
I mean, that shot he's maybe got, he's probably got less than seven, eight feet there for par.
He's going to clean it up real nice.
What a psychopath.
It was like 10 years ago.
He spit into a.
Spitting to a cup.
Spint to a cup.
So he's got this in him.
He had the,
when he lost to Patrick Harrington,
who we've had on this show,
at Carnusty in the Open Championship,
he had the whole thing afterwards
where he was bitching, like,
other guys' balls hit the flag
and they get great bounces.
Mine hits the flag,
and goes in the bunker.
I'm just like so unlucky,
blah, blah.
It's just,
it's so nice to be back where I belong,
which is that Sergio Garcia
is a whiny, European little bitch.
He's been,
the enemy from day one he was
massively unlikable for a reason
and now all of a sudden in Saudi
fucking Arabia of all places
in like you know how a Bubba called
it a hit and giggle this is just like a hit and
collect you just like show up and just
collect a bunch of money who cares if the golf
course sucks like that couldn't matter
at all you're in Saudi Arabia dude playing golf
Saudi Arabia
freaking out over the sand conditions
maybe this is how he's getting people to
stop paying attention that he was actually playing in
Saudi Arabia like we'll just try to
Try and switch the narrative to me dragging my feet all over the greens.
I'm sitting in a pink chair right now.
You are, yeah.
That's true.
Yeah, Frankie is in a pink chair, like an aggressively pink chair.
It's the pinkest chair I've ever sat in.
What happened to our nice chairs that we had in here?
I don't know.
We're in, have we even said that we're in the basement?
We're in the downstairs studio.
We are in the downstairs studio.
And we, again, we've been down here before and they had these nice individual chairs.
And then we came down here and there's a flamboyantly pink chair.
We've had a very weird relationship with this room.
Sometimes we come down here and we're like amped up.
We're like, we love the vibes in here.
We love the chairs.
They used to have these chairs with like little laptop holders on them.
And it was like, this was a nice scene.
It was better than the room upstairs.
And now I hate this room today.
You're sitting underneath a shelf.
Like that shelf could just fall down and just hit you on the head.
You're sitting underneath a shelf.
I also feel like it's really hot in here.
Well, this chair.
So we have these girls to call our daddy girls and they're a force.
Look at that.
My hands are sweating.
They're pruning.
I'm sweating my d'clock.
Your hands, you're sweating so much that your hands are pruning.
Dude, it's hot in here.
that can't be healthy though Trent
I mean I'm not saying I'm a picture of health
that means that you have to
How tired are you gripping the microphone
You're fucking hands prune from wetness
I'm no doctor but I assume it'd have to be like
submerged in water for a long as time
Like I'm just trying to get
My hands don't prune in the pool
For 20, 25 minutes
You guys never take such a long shower your hands start to prune
Yeah but that's like after 20 minutes
It's a long time
Water just being absolutely hosed on your hands.
And that's,
Trent's just like sitting here in the dry, in the dryness.
Now that I've, it's exposed, I'm sweating even more.
I'm sweating even more.
Sitting down doing a bogus and your hands are purported.
It was my choice to let that information out.
And now I'm sweating even more.
Anyway, we have the cold hands are pruning or just the one that you're holding it with.
It's just the mic.
Yeah.
I think you need to loosen your grip a little bit.
This chair was built for the caller daddy girls.
And that's exactly why it's here.
I should not be sitting in it.
I'm not doing gluck-luck-luck-9,000.
Is that what it is, a 9,000?
9,000.
Are there other versions?
I don't know.
Honestly, they scare the shit out of me.
They're wildly intimidating.
I found out that, like, Alexandra Cooper is younger than I am by like a year.
And that one fucking blew my mind.
They are so, they are.
Blue your mind, huh?
We're all thinking it.
There was a, there was a real, you hesitated there.
It's a little bit of sex stuff.
Anyway, you know, they're intimidating.
They're intimidating girls, right?
The way they talk about, like, sexual things.
Like, you don't, like, go up to them and talk to them.
They're just, like, so intimidating.
They'll, like, fucking kill you.
And, like, when I found out that they were just, like, younger than, like,
Alexander was younger than me.
I'm like, what?
Yeah.
You just always expect, you always expect someone that's, like, more intimidating than you to be
older than you.
I think I'm still at that age where, like, I don't want to believe that athletes are
younger than me and shit like that.
You know what I mean?
I couldn't agree more.
I watch professional sports that people who are very much younger than I am,
and I always think they're older than me.
I don't think that'll ever go on.
Johnny Guadro was born on the same day as me.
Johnny hockey.
You guys fucking one of the best players in the NHL.
We were born on August 13th, 1993.
I am exact, same exact day.
And I think of him as being 10 years older than.
I am a week older than Blake Griffin.
That doesn't make any sense.
Wow.
It doesn't make any sense.
I know.
That's amazing.
It's crazy.
I'll be honest.
That's a stunning fact trip.
I can't believe it.
I still can't believe it.
I've known about it for a long time.
You're older than Blake Griffin.
You can, like, tell him what to do.
But then he comes in and he's, he's a old man.
jumps over fucking Keyes.
Yeah.
I sweat when I hold a microphone.
You know, I had a birthday since the last time we did a show.
Holy shit, yeah.
And I said, happy birthday to you.
Thank you.
And you were in a bed.
I said, happy birthday to Riggs in bed.
I didn't say happy birthday.
I only do, uh, that's nice.
Well, it was in a barracks.
It was, uh, there were three birthdays that day, right?
Yep.
You, Big Cat and Chuck for our Instagram guy.
Yep.
And Chuck was the only one is here.
So I only gave him one.
All right.
I turned 32, which is the same age Alexander the Great was when he died.
Wow.
All right.
so one more year and then you beat him.
Yeah.
And he conquered like the whole known world.
That's huge.
And I'm talking about golf.
No, but you know what?
He conquered the whole world.
Then he just like died before you did.
Yeah,
I should.
If everything continues to go well,
have a way longer run than he had.
Correct.
Which would be great.

waste management phoenix open i was there for a couple days
uh which is nice as a video coming out from that experience which you will have to check
out we will obviously be sharing that and whatnot awesome experience tons of stewies stewies
just galore that's your second time there second time there trend daddy and i went solo last
year you know how would you compare the second experience of the first is this a is this a once
in a lifetime trip or is this now that you've seen it twice is this a like every time you
have the chance to go out to the waste management you go i have to say saturday at the
Race Management Phoenix Open is just one of the most fun and interesting sporting experiences you can ever have.
No matter how many times you go.
No matter how many times you go.
Wow.
It's awesome.
It's just fun.
That place is like a fantasy land bubble.
Like the weather's just always perfect.
It doesn't make sense that it's like that, but it is.
You'll never experience an outdoor event where the female population gets more geared up for it.
We're talking heels.
Oh, man.
Like dressed to the nines.
walking out just in packs of thousands everywhere.
It's like the Belmont Steaks.
It's crazy town, except it's a bigger shit show than that.
And it's just fun.
People are drinking.
It's a young, like Scottsdale in general is just kind of a young, like happening, feeling type vibe throughout the whole place.
So then like I said, you factor in that it's the biggest event of the year there and then everyone's just there to have fun.
And it's all revolving around golf, which we love golf.
It's just a lovely, lovely experience.
You can people watch there and see some shit.
You can jump into the crowd and get into the mix.
It's just awesome.
It's an unbelievably cool experience.
I'm always down for anything where people are going to do something outside of the norm, like drink really early, but everyone's doing it together.
That's why I love tailgating so much when I used to tailgate for Iowa football games.
Everybody's there for the same cause and it's just to drink and watch sports, but the waste management is unlike anything that there is out there.
It's unbelievable.
I mean, people, people, they build a whole trip around it, and then they prepare the night before they get to bed.
at a certain hour so they can get up and get in line and then they just go ham all day you see
a lot of people that couldn't handle it i mean we saw people getting their stomachs pumped at 10 a m couple
girls getting ambulance off so it was a scene that's a scene absolute scene it was a great time
phenomenal finish with rickie foulor yesterday so the uh this kind of a stormy i guess like a rainy windy
environment came in i was out there fouling kids for a handful holes in it and it was playing
brutal, absolutely brutal out there yesterday.
Ricky came in with, I think, a four-stroke lead into the final round.
He doubles, like, the fifth hole, I think it was, and then made a couple other pars.
He buries the 10th, so you're thinking, okay, he's in good shape.
And then I think it was the 11th hole where he hits.
And for anybody who doesn't remember, Ricky's got a serious history here.
I mean, last year, he blew a lead a couple years before that when he went into.
maybe it was the year before that where he went into like
a handful of extra playoff holes
with Hedekimaziana. Yeah, that was 2016.
So he should have won this tournament a bunch of different times.
He's kind of got some demons
and all that from this thing.
Then he chips it into the water
on 11? All the way over.
Oh, it just skids past the hole, catches a hill,
just skirts around the bunker.
If that thing just goes into the bunker.
It is a, it's a marvel that it didn't go in the bunker.
Just stunning.
Like, that thing had eyes and ears
and just refused to go in that bunker if it would have.
You know, Ricky's obviously an incredibly talented player,
especially around the Greens.
Decent chance he just gets up and down for bogey,
and it's not a problem.
Instead, it goes on the water.
Then he takes a drop.
Then while he's up there measuring the shot and looking at the green and all that,
his ball that he just dropped rolls back into the water.
They penalize him for that, which is crazy town.
Absolutely chaos.
So once again, golf gets a rules.
Controversy, people are freaking out.
How the fuck can that be the rule that he drops it?
Everybody says, okay, this is your official drop.
You're flying now, and then he walks up, and then where they said, because the grass is cut so tight,
because it's on such a severe slope, his ball rolls under the water.
He gets penalized for it, but he did.
That's the new rule that no matter where your ball goes after you drop it now.
It's not a new rule.
That's just the rule.
So, like, what's the difference between that and then when, like, you'll see a guy on the side of a, like, a major slope, like, by a cart path, and he'll drop it,
and then they'll let him, like, pick it up and redrop it.
No, that's what they did, but then they settled.
It's settled for long enough.
Correct.
They determine that his ball is in blood.
That's the difference.
So, like, that's where the.
rule changes right there is that like if it's his ball was determined in play the rules official
says your ball is now in play and then once that happens if your ball goes in which it did which
he was up there looking at the green just trickle right back i just don't see the difference between
like just like if it moves after you had dropped it just like do it again it doesn't mean it i can't
possibly comprehend how you can like place like a time limit on when a ball sits there if it's
just in a wrong spot just let him fucking do it he hasn't taken a stroke i think everybody agrees
with you frankly i'm angry so then he's angry so then he's
chips it up and cans like a 15 footer.
Heroic.
Heroic.
I mean, 15 feet, 20 feet?
So now at this point, at this point, Rick's a stroke back because Brennan Grace is going crazy.
Rick's a stroke back.
He comes to the 15th hole par five, which got kind of a mini island green.
You could call it because it's got a couple bunkers next to it.
But there's water everywhere.
He goes for it from 252, hits one on in the middle, left part of the green, two puts for Bertie,
has a nice up and down on 16,
then drives one onto the green on the par 417,
which we saw people hitting all kinds of shots.
We saw one guy,
I can't remember who it was,
putted into the water on 17.
I believe 17 was two years ago
where Ricky drove it through the green
and it went into the water.
I think that might have,
yeah, that was one of the times
where he was in contention
where he had a phenomenal drive
and it hit the down slope.
It looked like it was going to be tight
and then just rolled and trickled into the water.
Yep.
He drives it into the front middle part of the green,
two putts from there for another birdie.
Then he has an awesome up and down
after hitting into those weird church pew type bunkers that they have on 18 and gets the win.
I think he ended up winning by two strokes.
So very cool to see you from Ricky Fowler.
He takes more ricochet shots than anybody else in golf.
Man, there would have been so many more ricochet shots if he had, if he had choked that all the way away.
Or would you call them Ricky Shea shots.
Nice.
My man.
Just fist bump, Frank.
Put my sweaty hand.
That deserves one.
That's good stuff.
You've pumped for that one.
I mean, it just hit me like a ton of bricks right there.
I didn't think of that one.
You're just exhausted and it just came right to you.
I heard ricochet shot and I just thought Ricky Shea shot.
Ricky Shea shot.
Unreal.
That was good.
Yeah, that's a great one.
I'm happy for real.
I'm a little too tired to like be humble.
Like I'm like, that was a really good one.
It was fine.
A Ricky Shea shot.
Are you kidding me?
It was fine.
He says I'm a little too tired to be humble.
It was solid.
Like I didn't think it wasn't.
I thought it was quite good.
I didn't think it was life changing.
I'm basking in how good that was.
I literally just looked up in this guy.
I was like, Ricky Shea shot.
From the heavens.
Wow.
Takes a lot of Ricky Shea shots, okay,
for the fact that he's only won four times in the PGA tour,
yet he's pretty much the most marketable guy on the PGA tour
outside of maybe Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson.
And even he might be beyond Phil at this point.
I mean, his off course branding is off the charts.
Yeah.
Had to win, though.
What's that?
He has to, like, he has to throw in these Ws.
He has to keep racking up these Ws.
Well, that's why he gets all.
the Ricky shoot shots because people don't think that those two things are equal,
the amount that he's actually won versus.
So it's huge for him.
Right.
So this is big.
Him racking up wins.
People were still chirping.
I saw a great tweet that I had to retweet that was the guy tweeted me earlier in the weekend being like,
amazing fact, Tom Brady has more Super Bowl wins than Ricky Fowler has PGA tour wins.
And then Ricky won, and they were at the same.
And then Tom Brady won another Super Bowl.
And then Ricky still has more than Ricky Fowler has wins.
But Ricky's at his fifth PGA tour win.
which is great.
Johnny Miller retired from the booth on Saturday.
Did his last round on Saturday.
See a lot of people chirping, like, what a weird thing to do it on Saturday.
He didn't want to take away from the ending of the event on Sunday,
which I think is a very classy move.
I need to read something to you guys about Johnny Miller.
Go ahead.
It came out on Saturday or Sunday.
So he's retiring.
Everybody's telling all these stories.
People are, they're tear-jerkers.
Everyone's emotional.
They ask Dan Hicks what he will most remember Johnny Miller by, and he says this.
and I quote, if I had to single out one thing that I think typifies Johnny is, and it's going to sound crazy, but it's cheese whiz.
Easy cheese whiz.
There's a brand.
So Johnny would get in.
I would look over there and he would have the nozzle of the cheese was thing implanted, basically mainlining cheese whiz.
You're actually sticking that thing in your mouth.
The rest of us should probably be using this.
So our illustrious stage manager, Kathy, would actually put a piece of tape on the cheese with bottle and say that it's Johnny Mills.
He has been doing this his entire career.
Oh my God.
During broadcast, he sucks down bottles of cheese whiz through the nozzle.
And there, look at this.
You guys, there's video of it.
And this is him just sucking.
Are you kidding me?
What's wrong with this guy?
The fact that that didn't come out until now is.
And that's psychotic lunatic behavior.
That's what I said.
No.
It's awesome.
That's like kind of like that.
I don't like that.
It's like funny, but I don't like it.
I mean, the guy that he likes what he likes.
he doesn't give a shit and he's just pounding cheese
something wrong with him it's weird sure
but everybody's a little weird
The guy's pounding cheese dude he's sucking that thing down
Like it's a cup of coffee
He's sucking it down
It's a bottle in between takes he's just
Sucking on a bottle of cheese with
That's so weird
It's weird but I don't hate people for doing weird shit
I don't like hate it
I just think it's like bizarre
I think it's a fucking weirdo psychotic movie
He needs to like get checked out for that
I think he has a weird addiction to cheese with
The way he's holding it right here is unbelievable
Dan Hicks said, if I had a nickel for every cheese whiz can, Johnny has gone through over our 20 years in the booth, I'd be a rich man.
What the fuck?
A psychotic behavior.
That needs to be evaluated.
The most surprising thing to me is that it just came out now.
He's been in the booth 30 years, and not once have we heard the cheese with story before.
They need to look into that.
Do you think he's been very protective of the cheese whiz facts?
Does he do it like mid-conversations?
Like, would you be talking to Johnny Miller and he's just like squirting it in his mouth as you're speaking to him?
Just imagine you, they'll come back from commercial.
there's Johnny Miller and Dan Hicks,
and not 15 seconds before that.
He's just sucking on a bottle of cheese.
And it makes the noise.
It makes like the squirting out noise.
And you just hear him.
Just like,
you're just staring straight and you know what he's doing next to you.
I mean,
I don't understand how you don't put it on some crackers or something.
Just straight to your dome?
You just hear that,
like,
you just hear the noise to the left of you.
Like everyone that's like with him in the booth
was just like,
yep,
I know what that noise is.
It's like he's got an oxygen tank plugged into his mouth,
but instead of oxygen,
he's pumping cheese whizze.
into his face.
I was so surprised by that information
that I thought he tried a joke
I was making it up.
You think you tried cheese once?
I was like,
I fucking love this shit.
I can't go a single broadcast.
I'm going to have this all the time.
He ate it so much and so consistently
that a stage manager had to put a piece of tape on it that said,
this is Johnny Miller's cheese.
Don't touch it.
In the video,
you clearly see it's a bright, vibrant orange.
Look how dead serious he is.
He is so serious about his cheese with.
Can I watch a video of him actually putting it in his mouth?
I mean, does he shake it?
They're asking him a question, and he's shaking the cheese with,
and he's just shooting it inside his mouth.
He can't go on his regular day without just constantly consuming cheese with.
The guy likes cheese with.
I dislike Johnny Miller more than anybody.
This new information didn't make me like or dislike him anymore.
I'm just fascinated by it.
It's unbelievably he disliked Johnny Miller.
Can't get over that.
I think he's funny.
I think he's bizarre.
Of course he's bizarre.
Why?
Who cares if he's bizarre?
It makes me feel comfortable
I don't like that he has like he won
That's a bad argument
Like if someone's bizarre
It's like that's like one of the things I like
Don't like about it's off pudding
He's like a weirdo
You don't think dude
He's fucking downing cheese with
His arrogance doesn't bother you
Not at all I think it's hilarious
I think he's like Schueter McGavin
Yeah everybody's the most hated person in that movie
But he's also what
Shooter McGavin's also a legend
He's like the most legendary character
Not in the movie
In that reality
In that universe
Everybody hates Shooter McGavin
But he's but the guy
Johnny Miller is an entertainer. He's like,
that's what he does. That's who he is.
Johnny Miller doesn't like put on a facade of like being the show.
But I don't care. Like I'm getting the entertainment value.
Like him chirping guys and always talking about them choking.
I think what's trying to say in reality,
he is the shooter McGavin guy because in reality in the movie,
shooting McGavin was hated.
But to an entertainer,
just like how us watching.
But there are stories of Johnny Miller goes up to guys and like that he's a massive dickhead to people.
he just the way he commentates.
Then he's a coward.
If he's not going to do it in person, then he's a coward.
Well, how?
They don't have to in real life.
Hey, man, can you please right now in real time, like, give an updated opinion on my golf?
I get the opinion.
He just talks to people.
I get the feeling he wouldn't if he was pushed.
I think he would be a coward.
I think he would turtle.
That's not based off of it.
I don't have an official stance on Johnny Miller.
Never have.
I love John.
I think he's the best.
I think he's funny.
He's blunt.
I think he was the first guy that ever came in.
was willing to talk about the fact that pressure plays a gigantic role in golf when everyone else in cookie cutter golf was like oh everybody's great everybody's the best everybody's got all this talent everybody loves each other and he was the first guy to come in and be like all this stuff's happening because this guy is choking under pressure pressure changes everything blah blah blah and that's why i love johnny and he's brought that for 30 years it is very ironic that the day before the day after he retires rickie fowler melts down like a motherfucker and johnny's not there to be like this is nerves like well i mean melted down like a mother but he's very ironic but he's very ironic
he also won.
True.
But during that stretch,
Johnny would have been throwing
some nerves right.
Oh,
he would have had some great comments.
Yeah.
There's no doubt about it.
I'm going to miss Johnny Miller.
I will say that.
I think that's,
he is different.
We'll see what Paul Ezinger.
He'll be,
he'll be good.
Yeah, Zinger's got a little fire to him as well.
Yeah, which is good.
Yeah.
The right hire can make a huge impact on your business.
That's why it's so important to find the right person.
But where do you find that individual?
You can post a job on a job board and hope the right person will find your job.
But think about it.
How often do you hang out on job boards?
Almost never. I would say never.
I never have.
I never have, not once.
However, I have hung out on LinkedIn before.
In fact, I used to work recruiting, and we used to recruit on LinkedIn all of that.
It's just way better.
Don't leave.
LinkedIn's amazing.
What?
LinkedIn's incredible.
It's an unbelievable thing.
I search people that I don't know.
I want to know what they're doing.
Like I did it this week where we had guests and I was talking to bookers and stuff.
I was like, how legit is this person?
Typing their name.
First thing, it popped up was LinkedIn.
Don't leave finding someone great to chance when you can post your job to a place.
where people go every day to make connections grow in their career and discover job opportunities.
Most LinkedIn members haven't recently visited the top job boards, duh, but nine out of ten members are open to new opportunities.
People who are qualified for your role and ready for something new, that's what you're looking for.
It's the best way to find the person who will help you grow your business.
Hurry to LinkedIn.com slash four and get 50 bucks off your first job post.
Sounds pretty nice.
That's LinkedIn.com slash four to get 50 bucks off your first job post.
LinkedIn.com slash four terms and conditions apply.
We also haven't really talked about Tiger.
Tiger's debut of the year at Tori Pines about a week and a half ago.
Finished T20, I think, is where he actually finished.
Pretty just bland.
He didn't really have much going on.
Didn't play well.
Didn't really do anything that well and still finished top 20, I think.
I do think it was T20.
He did a great Sunday.
He had a solid finish.
to us nine holes Sunday, but again, it was just a little week.
Where the day starts and you're kind of like, all right,
you can maybe piece something together here.
It'll be maybe finishing double digit.
Yeah, that was his goal, right?
He said it.
He said that was his goal to get them 10 under, and that was what he did.
Yeah.
So, again, I don't know if we have a ton to say about that.
We just hadn't talked about.
He'll play next at Riviera in a couple weeks, which he's never won there
or really done particularly well there as a pro.
He missed the cut there last year.
So hopefully he does better.
That golf course is awesome.
So I always get excited to watch that.
Bubbo won there last year.
Maybe we'll get a little rigsy four play ball for Bubba going on here.
That would be nice.
To that event, which would be great.
Tiger played with Trump and Jack Nicholas yesterday.
Trump with an all-time tweet yesterday.
Everybody is asking how Tiger played yesterday.
The answer is great.
He was long, straight, and putted fantastically well.
He shot a 64.
Tiger is back and will be winning majors again.
Not surprisingly, Jack also played really well.
His putting is amazing.
Jack and Tiger like each other.
Why that last part?
Why?
Jack and Tiger like each other.
Why?
The last line reads like a nine-year-old is writing like a little synopsis of something.
I'm like a book reporter.
Jack and Tiger like each other.
Very complimentary.
I mean, people always like, why do they play golf with this guy, blah, blah, blah.
We've gone over that when he played when Rory played with Trump.
But first of all, it's better to be friends with the most.
powerful man in the world, then have him hate you.
And second, he's just going to compliment the shit out of your golf game.
It's great for your image, like, in terms of your golf image.
Well, the way he's talking about how Tiger's putting well,
Tiger made a comment that, like, once he starts,
he feels like he's putting well, but they're just missing.
And once they start to fall in, they're going to fall in in bunches.
I think he had that quote during the tournament.
And that got me, like, juiced up because it's like once he gets that feel,
I think he could probably feel it, like, in his brain right now.
Like, I'm just off.
Yeah, but doesn't part of you worry that?
Trump knows that.
Trump knows that like what Tiger's going to really like is if Trump pumps up his putting.
He said he was long straight and putted fantastically well.
Which is like what we're all waiting to hear.
Right.
That's what we're feeding us what we want.
If we got positive reinforcements from Trump or from anybody's what's going to push Tiger over the edge, I'm all for it.
Tiger said that when I get when I start to, when I start to sink them, they're going to sink in bunches.
Like I pictured literally like the sound of a ball going to go.
golf all just like a million times.
And I can just picture him just nailing every single put he takes for the next
like four and a half years.
Like a quick cut up of tiger putches going in everywhere.
Yes.
I like that.
Like that's what bunches to me from Tiger Woods sounds like.
That would be great.
Big takeaway for me from the Trump Tiger Jack picture is, I forget how big Trump is in terms
of how tall he's.
He's a big guy.
He's a unit.
What about Jack wearing shorts?
I mean, Jack looked like your, like, your dad's okay friend who comes as like the
random fourth and that was his outfit.
Tiger looked like he was dressed for a major.
He always does.
You're never going to catch Tiger on the golf course not looking like a million bucks.
Well, this is one of those scenarios where people definitely told him what to wear.
Correct.
It wasn't one of those.
He gets to do this one thing.
He dresses like a homeless person trying to get across the country.
Oh, it's just golf, right?
He knows how to dress a golf.
That's just what he does.
But outside of golf, he's disoriented.
God knows what he wore to the course.
Correct.
Like him in the car?
He probably wears like sandals with socks on him to the White House.
It's like Tiger.
It's just not what you do.
Put some grass under this guy so he can dress correctly.
Like once he steps on concrete, the guy fucking has no idea what he's doing.
Like if you run into Tiger at the woods, Jupiter, his restaurant in there, he's wearing those hygiene.
He could be wearing anything.
I'm telling you, I think it's like the way he, like, if you just throw grass under him, I feel like his whole like, it's like Iron Man.
Like his fucking suit comes out, like out of like his chest and he's just like wearing his red.
Put grass under Tiger.
That's how you get him to dress.
God, appropriately.
I think that's about right.
All right.
Next up, we got Danielle Kang.
Reminder that we are going to two podcasts a week starting this week.
So Thursday, you're going to have another show.
And then next week and every week, probably all the way through August.
You're going to get a Tuesday and a Thursday for play.
You are welcome.
Danielle Kang, the people's women's golfer.
She's the best.
Enjoy this chat.
I love that Dollar Shave Club has everything I need to look, feel, and smell my best.
What I love even more is the fact that I never have to go to a store.
I stink at stores
I don't understand how the aisles work
There's just too much stuff
There's too much stuff
They have all these numbers
And like half the time
The things that they say are in the aisle
Are like so vague
Just like supplies
Like a little kind of supplies
Everything I see
Everything is what I don't need
Everything is a supply
If you think about
Right why would I have everything
I need
Yeah
Dollar Shave Club delivers everything I need
Right to my door
They keep me fully stocked
On what I use
So I do not have to run out
A.k.k.a. go to the store
Dollar Shave Club has everything you need to get ready
No matter what you are getting ready for
They have you covered head to toe for your hair, your skin, your face
You name it, they have it
They have this new program where they automatically keep you stocked up on the products you use
That's what I do for Dower Shave Club's toothpaste
Toothpaste is one of those where
It's very nice for them to just replenish it automatically
Because when you're out of toothpaste, you're screwed
I use Dollar Shave toothpaste right now
It's in my cabinet. That's what I use
and it's just very refreshing.
I wouldn't use any.
And did you have to go to a store to get that?
No, I did not.
It just came right to my door.
I haven't been to my apartment in like eight or nine days,
and I have no idea what I'm low on,
and I know I'm going to have to end up going to the store
and grabbing this stuff,
and I need to have it shipped to my house.
You need to get this service going.
I don't ever want to deal with this ever again,
because I know I'm going to get to my bathroom.
Right now, Dollar Shave Club's got a bunch of starter sets.
You can try for just $5.
Give it to me.
Like their oral care kit.
That sounded kind of creepy.
After that, the restock box ships,
regular-sized products at regular price.
So what are you waiting for, Frankie?
Get your starter set for just five bucks right now at dollar shaveclub.com slash four.
That's dollar shaveclub.com slash four.
Hello.
Danielle.
Hi.
Hi.
What's going on?
Oh, not much.
What's up with you?
We're just hanging.
You know, it's me and Trent.
Hey, Danielle.
Hi, Trent.
How are you?
Good.
You guys miss me?
It's been a long time.
Perfect.
I said it's been a really long time
I know
I feel like we haven't had Joe
You get on top of the shit right now
so you can't
So
We
I mean we're probably not even going to do an intro
We'll probably just start
We're probably just start doing the show
If that's okay with you
Okay
My first question is
What are you up to today
You sound like you just took a nap
I'm still taking a nap
Well if that's better
So the first time we talked to you, you were still up, I think, from the night before after you won your major championship.
Yeah.
No, I'm still taking an out.
What do we have to do to wake you up?
I'm up.
What if we just start screaming into your ear?
You just hang up?
I feel like you already did hang up.
Try it.
I'm Jerry.
Now we'd blow our own ears out if we try to have.
Yeah, that's true.
We have headphones on, so it would just hurt us more than you.
To wake me up.
Yeah.
You have heads of it on.
Yeah, we're all heads.
I think I just put you guys on speaker and put it in the other room.
That'd be fucked up.
That'd be a really fucked up way to do an interview.
I'm sorry.
You talked about it later.
So my first question, my first official question, is do you still sit alone shotgun in Uber's like a crazy person?
100%.
1,000%.
Two Uber's have asked me for a hug.
For hugs?
What's your Uber rating?
A hug.
Are we still going to come out of this?
We just had to know if you're still doing it.
I'm trying to get a little update on you here.
It's been a year.
Yeah, of course.
I forgot that we just, I did some crazy shit.
4.89.
That's really high.
Did you just know that off the top of your head?
Did you look it up?
Yeah, it's because I'm awesome.
All right, fair enough.
I mean, that is a crazy move.
We talked about the last time you were in studio,
which I think was like a year and a half ago.
It's not crazy.
You did a poll.
and people still did it.
So it's not an insane thing to do.
It was way more people than I thought.
I think if you actually lived in, you know, a large city like New York,
you would realize that the Uber passenger relationship is not a situation where you give hugs to people.
I do it in New York.
I did it when I was going to your office.
That's just fucking really weird, Daniel.
Okay.
Let's talk golf.
You are a professional golfer.
We are a golf podcast.
So I think it's a good idea that we should talk about golf.
You have won since the last time that we had you on.
You went through a bunch of stuff.
How much did your latest win in Shanghai mean to you?
Well, latest win in Shanghai was pretty awesome.
I was working on, well, I have the years for over a year,
and obviously missing, I don't know, seven cuts in a row wasn't very fun.
But I knew that starting in Asia, I wasn't going to miss a cut because there are no cuts,
So that was exciting.
That's huge.
That's huge, yeah.
As I told my caddy after Evian cut,
I think those are seventh miscut or something.
And I said, do stick with me, man.
I promise you, we won't miss a cut for the rest of the year.
But, yeah, I started working with Futch,
and I don't know, everything started to get settled in.
And games started to come more together.
Myers started to calm down and finish 30.
in Hanna Bank and won the sharing night.
But I don't know.
I just, I won, and then I just wanted another one.
Last time I was super happy on Cloud and I,
but this one I just, it kind of lit another fire
where I just wanted to win the next one as well.
So it was interesting.
So talk about this swing yips situation,
not that we want to get into anything dark.
However, I think most people, I mean, you are a phenomenal player.
You had a phenomenal amateur career.
You won a major championship less than two years ago,
and then all of a sudden you have the swing yips.
What, what's the deal with that?
What happened?
Wait, really quickly, Reagan, Tret.
When you guys are talking to me, randomly asking me if I was taking a map,
and maybe you just jump right into the podcast?
Oh, yeah.
Are you doing the interview right now after calling me, quote, unquote, fucking crazy
for driving in the front and then you just jump around to the podcast?
Oh, yeah, that's correct.
That whole thing was the podcast.
You didn't even tell me that we're doing the podcast.
You're asking me.
Oh, no, no.
If you go back, you will see that I said,
hey, by the way, we're not really going to do an intro.
We're just doing the podcast.
And that's what you're going to tell me we're doing the podcast.
Look, this is what you sign up for.
Everybody loves the fact that they get to hear you take a nap.
That's just electric.
You're a beauty.
We got past all the pleasantries, the first two interviews.
Now we're just friends and we just call.
You should have heard what Kisner said to us the other day
in the first couple minutes before.
We were like, oh, yeah, by the way, we're just doing the podcast.
He's like, you motherfuckers.
Yeah, and, yeah, we're just friends, you know, just posting up a trophy about my Shanghai win with hashtag, no, what was your caption?
Congratulations to our girl with the 2018 Dick trophy.
Yeah, thanks, guys.
I mean, in defense, are you going to deny that that trophy looked like a dick?
No, I'm not going to deny at all.
I will not comment or confirm.
You guys are just unbelievable.
You saw my comment, though.
Look, Danielle, if you take a picture with a giant trophy, it looks like a giant dick right next to you, and we don't comment on it, then we're not doing our jobs.
It looks like a penis.
I was looking at it, and I said, of course it's going to happen to me.
If anyone's going to have a penis trophy, it's probably going to be me.
It was incredibly fitting.
It was, you know, we call you the people's women's golf room.
You know, it looks good.
It's okay.
It looks great.
It's fine.
It's a beautiful trophy.
It just looks like a giant beautiful penis trophy.
Yeah, you want to hear the funny part?
I have a miniature one.
They sent me a mini one.
No, they didn't.
Yeah, and then there's a picture of us doing some weird things to it, but I can't post this.
Wow.
It's a mini thing, so in certain lighting it is.
So then we don't...
I just, you know, we quietly just have to...
fun with ourselves, but
I have the trophy at home.
It's half the size.
I thought that people would have enjoyed it.
Well, this podcast is called...
Podcasts is called...
Podcasts is called Foreplay.
So, I mean, this is all kind of coming together.
Yeah.
Well, you guys will like it.
I'll let you guys take pictures of it one day.
I'll bring it over if you guys can see pictures of it.
That would be awesome.
We would love that.
But honestly, though, the trophy's really cool.
It's a goddess flying through with a cake.
But you have to...
If you get the perfect lining,
It's a perfect penis looking trophy.
Phenus looking trophy.
Look, it's a beautiful trophy.
It was a very cool win.
It did.
Let's try now.
And, you know, love the sponsor.
Nothing but love for all the sponsors and all that they do.
It's great.
Oh, yeah, of course.
I still love my trophy.
Big time.
But they did give you a, you know, a giant dick trophy.
That's just a fact.
You know, I will once again know a comment or confirm or deny.
Yeah, no, you haven't made any comments yet.
So, uh, no.
The swing yips.
What happened with the swing yips?
Let's talk off.
What happened with the swing yips?
I don't know.
I think it all, I mean, people tell you about the years how it ruins people's careers,
and I could actually kind of see what they come to that conclusion.
It first starts with the mechanical issue, I believe,
and then it starts creeping into your brain and mind and what you see and your feel and your hands.
And one day you're sending you on the tea, and you're just a fear of something.
and while you still have that mechanical issue,
you still can't fix it because you need to.
But then even after you fix it,
you still see all the shots that have happened.
You see the, you feel it.
I don't know.
It's really hard to explain,
and it's kind of a, it just sucks.
And I don't know how you really come out of it.
I think one of the main things you have to do
is fix the mechanical issue.
And then from there you have to constantly fight your own fear,
standing on a keybox,
or whenever you get those fields in your hands, I think.
I don't know, it's a battle.
It's really hard to explain what people will do.
It's just an awful thing, and if anyone do stugs or do have it, it's the worst thing ever.
But what I can tell you is that it'll always kind of be there.
I think it's more of a mistake or a mishit, but you just kind of have to fight it.
So talk about how you essentially got out of it, got back on track, got in with Butch Hart,
Harmon and what that did for your career, your golf game?
Well, so during Asia, I felt pretty good.
I didn't know how I was going to do in Honobank.
That was the first tournament in Korea.
And I still, there was one T-Block.
I backed off, I think, six times.
And I stood there and I started trying.
I can't control what I'm doing.
I want to hit the ball.
But people are watching you, you can't pull the trigger.
but I had my caddy really helped me out,
and he just kept telling me,
until you're comfortable, don't hit it.
And I kept telling myself,
what's the worst that can happen,
and which told me,
no matter what,
just trust the swing.
And I would kind of just tell myself
if it's a left to right hole
and it has it on the right,
it's better to slice it in with the driver
and have shorter iron in for the third shot
than lay up with the four iron.
I have a free with him.
So I just kept talking to myself like that,
And eventually there were times where I still just blocked it that ride or dog-cooked.
However, I kept playing well.
And then he's working on with me with my wedges and my putting.
And, I don't know, it's still not completely gone.
I have some troubles at the time in resorts.
But it's something that's not going to stand in the way of my career or what I want to do.
So I'm just going to keep working at it.
And we'll see where it goes.
So I don't want to.
I want a shang-i with it.
You did?
And I don't want to.
make this all about me, but I do have a recurring dream where, and I've had this for like five years
now, where I'm playing in the, I'm playing in the Masters, and I'm on, I'm on the first T. It's finally
my turn. I'm all jacked out first T at Augusta, and I literally just can't, I cannot pull the
trigger and hit the ball. And every time I try to, something happens, like Augusta Wind will knock
the ball off or like right in my back swing, like a telephone pole like falls over or something. And I
Every time I have it, I've never been able to hit the first T-shot.
It fucking sucks.
It's not funny.
It sucks.
It's hysterical.
Do you wake up angry when you have this dream or do you wake up sad or what is it?
Devastated and then I try to fall back asleep really quickly so I can go back and like hype myself up.
Like you can do this, dude, just hit the fucking golf ball.
You got to the Masters for a reason.
Oh, you do the continuing dream.
I try.
This is amazing.
Yeah, and it happens all the time.
You still fail.
I mean, I've never heard.
hit the ball. I've probably tried, I don't know, 400 times and I can't hit the ball.
Yeah. Well, I mean, that doesn't happen to me. I just, I eventually hit it because I have to or
obviously cute, but I mean, why, why specifically Augusta? I don't know.
Well, if I knew, I think all these things would work themselves out, but I don't. You think it has
some sort of deeper meaning that if you unraveled it in your real life? Why don't you have to
Gilmore? That's not a bad idea. So see, this is kind of what I'm looking at.
for. We come up with the ideas. We plan them in my head the next time I'm in the middle of a dream.
It's about you. Right. It's obviously. This is like inception. It's all about you. We got to, we got to figure this out. So, why don't you have happy Gilmore it in your dream next time? I hope I'm standing there and going to just hit the ball. Did you ever try happy Gilmore it when you were going through your stuff?
No. Don't be, don't be ridiculous, man. Well, I mean, what was, what is what? What is the suggestion is that?
What? Did you do anything that was seemed utterly ridiculous? You're just.
to try to get rid of what was going on?
Yeah, but you made me hit the ball from starting in mid position.
So I would set the club and then turn and hit, and I couldn't miss.
What?
No way.
Yeah.
And I actually did that in a tournament about four or five times.
But then, like I said, when the feeling comes, it's just, it's a mental block where you just can't hold off.
So it still happens.
But it happens less when I just went to the mid part of your swing and then from there you just turn and hit.
I just said it
So I don't start from the ball
My club is halfway
Up the back swing
And then I start from there
I was envisioning you
Like in Ten Cup
When he turns everything backwards
Like his hat
And he takes shoes off
And like all that stuff
To try to get rid of shit
Sorry you're gonna give me shit
I've never watched it
Oh my God
What?
Yeah
You gotta watch it
Sorry
Never think Caddy Shack either
You're just a fucking weirdo
Damn ya okay
I like the silence
Yeah you just put us
to stunned silence.
I didn't know how to react.
It's okay.
We're going to be okay, guys.
I was hoping you'd gone to like a psychic or something like that, some sort of healer
to help you out.
But no?
No, no, no.
So I got it.
I have a question about a quote that I found in my research, and I remember this
from October when you did win.
After, I guess, the front nine, you weren't happy with how you're playing in the final
round.
Caddy gives you permission to throw a temper tantrum because you had said cameras are
everywhere. I just went to hit the bag really hard.
He said, here's a wedge, just smash it.
Did that really happen?
Yeah, 100%.
There's actually way worse than I explained it.
I was having a meltdown because, I mean, like I said,
sometimes a bad attitude or the throwing on the golf course
doesn't mean anyone's a bad person or bad people.
I mean, you've seen golf is getting mad.
Oh, yeah.
It just means that everyone's worked really hard to get to where they're at.
And if you can't get out of your own way, you feel really angry.
And you don't know what to do, and there's no one to get angry out but yourself.
And at Hana think, I finished third, but I just couldn't get out of my own head, and I sabotaging myself.
So I think at Shanghai, when I was right in contention, I was sabotaging myself again.
And it's all in my mind.
I can't even blame my swing.
I can't blame my putting.
There's nothing in the golf aspect where I would look at it and go, oh, I needed to work on this.
No, it's just everything's in my head.
When that happens, you're so
angry, and you can't,
you don't know what to do because you don't know, you
want to win, you want to play the best you can,
but you're the one that's making yourself
go crazy. I told you,
golfers are you're insane, man. So then, anyways,
I was really just depressed
and just pissy, and
I just kind of made a quote saying,
here we fucking go again,
kind of deal. I can't be doing this
again two weeks in a row.
And then my caddy,
cameras were following me everywhere
and like howdy just said all right
he's we're going to hide so I
he took me around the back of this
building and then he set the bag down
and he was handed me a wedge and said
do whatever you want I hit the bag
just so that nobody sees me
or reports on me or whatever get a fine
in so I just smashed my bag I think
full slings
five times in a row
there was a hole in the bag on the bottom
there's a full on hole and he goes
are you done I said I feel so much better
And he goes, you're fucking crazy, but I need you to get it together.
And this is round five.
You ready?
And I said, yep.
It's just, I'm trying to suppress it just so I don't show it.
And I'm trying to be on the best behavior possible.
And I don't know.
Because, you know, people have the perception that if you say, fuck, you're just the worst person on the planet sometimes.
But, I mean, people say it.
What are you going to do?
I, God.
I don't know what kind of stir that would cause.
So I can't do, I can't even just throw a little hissy fit because people will judge you for it.
But then, I don't know.
I'm a very, I don't know, I need to kind of let it out.
So, like I didn't know how to deal with it.
I mean, we just kind of went around and he just said, just hit it.
What happened?
I felt really good.
Yeah, I say.
I felt like myself and I wanted to play golf myself.
I think we need to just say screw the beyond your best behavior stuff.
We're just trying to win.
That's all we really care about.
Exactly.
And he says we're playing to win.
and I need you to do whatever you need to do to get back to your normal mental say.
He says, I need Danielle.
Can you get Danielle back for me?
That's what you said.
Did you have to replace the bag after the tournament?
No, we like the bruises and the tattoos that's got.
I can draw my bag when I'm bored.
So, no, I mean, part of it.
But I did change the back through this year because he was kind of getting old.
What kind of stuff do you draw on your bag?
He needed to retire.
Like doodles?
I don't know.
I'm drawing the last biggest.
strip right now. If you look really closely,
my Statue of Liberty flipping
off you,
whoever looked at it.
Flipping you off? Yeah, I draw
Statue of the skyline of Las Vegas,
and then my Statue of Liberty
has a middle finger up. Nice. Okay.
That's a cool little message. It's just like
fuck the haters. Yeah. No, just
fuck off. Don't look at the bag.
Okay. So just to
fuck you to anyone who's looking at your golf bag.
And then
and then I draw
I don't know
I have a straw
I'm decorating my guys right now
and we'll see
we'll see what it ends up
I like it
we'll get updates
we'll get continuous updates
as we find out
how pumped do you
that it's a Solheim Cup year
oh so pumped
I'm excited
people know I love that
you guys love that
it's the best
I can't wait to go to Europe
yeah
I don't know
I mean two years ago
was so amazing
so incredible
I just can't wait to be a part of that again.
It's indescribable.
You're going to kick some European ass again?
Yeah, of course.
I mean, I don't know.
We just did an interview recently.
We had a Solheim Cup outing, and people were asking.
I mean, I'm like, this might be bad to tell you guys.
But I mean, you guys could look up interview.
One of the interviewers asked,
how is it comparative to Raddick Cup and Solheim Cup?
If players want to win, what do you think?
And somebody answered, you know,
We're very honored to play for our country
And what was it?
It's a friendly competition
And everyone's there, you know, happy
And we're just going to enjoy the ride
Or something like that
And they asked me and I said, oh, no, no, we want to win
No, no
I'm not going over to Europe to have a good time
We're going to go
We're going to go do the best you can
I've got 11 other teammates
I mean, what more
What kind of possibility do more
Like what kind of situation?
you're going to win more. I don't know. I can't even talk right now.
I think you're right.
It's just an event where you want to come together and just win for your country, for your team, for your captain, and you play the best you can.
I'm super excited. I don't like this attitude. I don't like this attitude that it's just like a friendly, good time.
We're going to go over to Europe. Yeah, it's like technically it's an exhibition, but it's actually the exact opposite.
It's a war. It's a fucking war. We're America trying to win.
Do you know how much more satisfying you'll be if you take the trophy home from their land on their soil?
Yeah, exactly.
It's like that.
I was over there for the Ryder Cup.
All these Euros were just singing and dancing in our faces.
It was disgusting.
I want to win.
Mm-hmm.
You want to win.
I do.
That was a good match.
It wasn't great for us.
But anyway, Solheim Cup year.
Are you guys going to come to Solheim?
I would love to come to Solheim.
In fact, one of my biggest regrets is that we didn't go to the Solheim two years ago when it was in Iowa.
That was in my backyard.
So hold up.
Hold up.
You would fly all the way to France for Radica, but you wouldn't fly over to Des Moines for a Solheim Cup.
It was a regret.
I just said it's one of my biggest regrets.
And, to be honest, you- Are you fucking shitting me right now?
One of our big things was trying to get certain access.
It's not about, no, I don't want to hear you.
Excuse me.
So I'm going to say, oh, my time, you would fly all the way to France for Riderke, but you won't come when we even have a domestic venue.
And you're saying, what? Are you coming to Scotland or not?
Kangor, I told you that that was a huge mistake.
Now, if you want to let us be like your personal lackeys and we'll just, like, get all the access in the world, then that's the thing we should talk about.
You guys need to get to Scotland, get your access to Scotland.
Ooh, ooh, I kind of like these dates.
So I'm looking at the, it's September 13th to 50.
You kind of like the dates.
Just take your studio with you and do your podcast in Scotland.
Wake your ass up in the middle of the night and do it if you have to do it in New York Times.
I just nonsense excuse you have.
I got to be honest.
I have a waiting to go over that week?
I really, I think there's a really good chance that I'm going to be at the Solheim Cup now this year.
Now there's a really good chance.
Do you understand that there are complications that could come up?
I'm telling you, I'm planning on being there, I'm looking at the dates,
you're throwing this on my radar, you're calling me out for not being to the last one,
which was, admittedly, a gigantic mistake.
Huge.
It looked like the best fucking time ever.
You're out there fist pumping, you're out there rallying up the crowds.
That was a huge mistake.
That looked like a lot more fun even than going to the Ryder Cup in Paris.
So I want to be there in Scotland.
Yeah, yeah.
I'll believe you when I see you there.
We just need, we need, I want to, we want to be like your hype men.
Oh my gosh.
One of my friends said if he had a billion dollars, what was the first thing you would,
it was the first thing you would buy?
And he goes, I would buy a hype man.
And I go, what is that?
He goes, just hype me up everywhere I go.
Yeah, rappers, like rappers have hype men.
Why can't golfers and bloggers?
Can we beat Danielle Kang's personal Solheim Cup hype men?
you're welcome to me
that'd be fucking unreal
I don't know you guys didn't come to
Des Moines so
Are you not a believer in second chances
My expectations
I'll see it when I
I'll believe you when I see it
All right
I'll give you attention if you want
But you can talk to talk
You gotta walk to walk

convincing you guys didn't come to Des Moines so god a couple of you guys clueled all the way in that
chaos pair i mean that was you know again i'm trying to explain to you i made a mistake you
keep harbid on my mistakes yeah thought we're trying to move forward with our relationship
we're moving we're moving forward okay okay it's okay everyone makes mistakes
what's the speaking of mistakes what's the worst golf shot you ever hit uh i don't know
but i just shanked when i got the resort's off the tea and i hit in the water
It's pretty embarrassing because I was playing with Tom Glavin and Greg Maddox.
You know who they are, right?
Greg Maddox.
Greg Maddox.
Yeah, those are two legends.
Yeah, and I shank one off the tee on a part three.
It's pretty awesome.
And then, yeah, it's okay.
I dropped it.
I made up and down from 120 yards out from 170 yard hole.
they shanked it into the water.
You shanked like a long iron or midiron?
I shanked a five.
Get it off the hosel and I said, well, I haven't done that in a while.
That makes me feel great, no offense.
Yeah, no, no, Tom Lavin said, I mean, I don't know how your score is unbelievable today.
I shot three over and you said it should have been at least.
I don't know how I broke 80.
My show game was incredible today.
I ducked up to drive too.
Oh, man.
What's your favorite golf course in the world?
Probably Black Wolf Run.
I absolutely love that track.
That's in Wisconsin.
Colorado, Wisconsin.
Yeah, I heard that place is awesome.
I've actually never played golf in Wisconsin.
It's so sick.
What's the best club in Vegas?
The Summit Club.
Have you guys been?
Which one?
No, you guys haven't said because it's the Summit.
No.
It's owned by the Discovery land properties, and it's a part of their golf courses.
And, oh, man, it's so nice.
I think I've seen a lot of postings from there that you put up.
Yeah, I have an honorary membership that Mr. Melman gave me as a sponsorship,
and it's one of the most incredible places that the positive play.
I mean, you need to go there to see it.
You need to go and see it for yourself.
Well, next time I'm in Vegas, your personal hype man's going to have to.
I have to obviously come out and check it out.
Yeah, you should.
When you come to Vegas, you got to let me know.
If you come to Vegas and don't let me know, we're done.
That's why I.
It's over.
Fair.
That is fair.
I mean, I'm not a, yeah.
I'm completely over.
Question.
I think I got a guy at MGM now, so whenever I go to Vegas, I stay at MGM.
What are your thoughts on MGM?
I'm going to my sponsor.
So you love it.
I absolutely love MGM's sponsors.
Are you kidding?
They treat me so well.
I go to shows, hotels.
If I'm at home, I mean, my mom goes to spa almost every day.
And then I, she gets facials.
Everyone goes, oh, you look so much younger.
What's your secret?
She goes, oh, my daughter.
My daughter and her sponsorship, I just use the spa credit.
That's awesome.
It's so funny.
Yeah, we get massages.
We have a boys massage day,
whereas my brother, David Lipsky, our friend Brian Martin and I all go get a facial.
And yes, they love facial.
I've actually...
You have that kind of day.
I, um, so I've never gotten a pedicure, but I've, everybody keeps telling me that I'll love it,
so I really want to get a pedicure.
You should.
It's, I don't know why guys don't get pedicured.
It's one of, I mean, it's about, it's necessarily just taking care of your feet.
I went into this
I just got a pedicure last week
and these two guys
I think they just came back
from a fishing trip
and they were just
I don't know
you know they looked
like men
and they just walked in
these huge two guys
and just sat down
and about two pedicures
I thought that was the cutest thing
on the planet
I'm a little worried
like I have really ticklish feet
I'm worried I'm gonna like kick somebody
in the face
oh so do I
but they don't do it
if you don't like it
so
okay
because there was on
a foot massage? Oh yeah. Love
feet massage. Foot massage.
It's like that, except they're just
cleaning up your feet again.
Has a fan
or a member of the gallery ever gotten
under your skin? Has a fan
or galas gone under my skin?
Yeah, like rattled you. Like, annoying?
100%.
What happened? What were they saying?
I don't even know. I mean, there's so many
random things.
Oh, you know what? There was
a situation where somebody said,
I don't know if I want to say.
It's just something like during a matchway that said,
how the fuck did she not give her that pot or something like that?
And I just kind of going, oh, okay.
That does battle me quietly, but I don't know.
There are situations where they do.
Did you clap back at that person?
Did you clap back of that person?
Like, I can give her.
No.
No, I'm so, I'm so, I'm not calm.
But I'm definitely a way more collected on the golf course.
So I just, I mean, if I say the word fuck and if I had caught on TV,
that means I was suppressing that word at least for the last 10 hours.
I couldn't help myself.
I would never cross on purpose, but it just comes out.
What's the most nervous you've ever been on a golf course?
You know what?
I was really nervous at Shanghai.
I was more nervous at Shanghai than I was at KPMG.
Wow.
Yeah, on the 17th post specifically.
It's reachable part five.
I hate my three wood, so I thought I was going to top it in the water or something,
but I needed to make birdie there because that's beachable for me.
And then because I hated my three wood so much that I took a five wood and tried to kill it
230 or something like that.
And then it barely covered these bunkers into the wind.
Wait, no, straight down wind.
And then I had this short-sided chip on an uphill slope, and you're going to have to hit those low,
spinners that guys are really good at and I was practicing that a lot and that's one of the
shots that I don't trust so everything about that hole was really uncomfortable and I was just
nervous standing on the T-locks looking at the scoreboard and the leader board and it wasn't
updating properly so it just said that there were leaders at least one ahead of me so I needed to
make birdie there because 18-could is really hard to birdie so but I pulled it off and I was I was so
nervous hitting that three-footer as well I don't know why that's awesome it's crazy you're more nervous there
than you were for the major.
It's just, I guess, nerds come with sometimes insecurity, right?
It's a doubt that creeps back in your head where you think, oh, what if?
Or I've been a really big situation.
I need to pull this off or something.
I don't know.
That's my opinion.
And I think everything about people is that was so uncomfortable.
And the fact that I kept, I know what my position was where and where I was standing and all
of that and put together, I was just super nervous.
Who's the most fun girl to play practice rounds with out there?
You know, I don't know, but I can tell you I'm one of the least fun players to play practice rounds with because no one plays with me anymore.
What?
Why?
That's shocking.
Yeah, I'm so slow.
So slow.
It's watching paint dry when I'm playing practice round.
What are you just too methodical?
Which doesn't even play with me anymore.
I just hang out at the golf course all day.
I just, I mean, my record, I think, I'm diamond resorts.
There's only a 26 player, it's a 26 player field, right, that week.
And there were celebrities, which means only 50 people or so are playing the whole golf force.
I let seven groups through in nine holes.
And I was a single.
Holy shit.
Well, that would explain to you how slow I play.
What are you doing, like map in every hole?
What are you doing?
No, I just
Like being on the golf course
So I hit my tea shot
Then I just chip around
And then I look at the green
And then I'm then I pot
And then by the time I do that
So I'll go through it
I don't want to feel rushed
So I let them through
I wanted to chip a couple more here
There
Have a barbecue
Yeah
You know
Have a nice picnic
And then if I eat
I let them through again
I don't want to eat
And walk and rush
So I sit down in the tea lock
I go oh you guys can go through
I'm just taking a break
And my catty just said there
He's just one he took probably
Oh god I bet he hates you
Yeah
Yeah he just hates it
He's because
See we came up at 11
It's 4
It's like eight holes
Let's go
That's incredible
And then I always say don't rush me
Yeah naturally
So I'm like a 5-6-ish handicap
How bad would you beat me in a straight-up match
How bad?
I mean
You say you're five and three
I'm like a five slash six handicap
Why are you laughing at me?
Whatever people tell me the handicap
I always double it
All right
So I'm telling you that I'm that
So you can do whatever calculations
You like in your head
How badly do you think
How badly would you beat me?
I don't know, come to Vegas
Go play, I'll let you know
I mean you can go on the podcast
And tell them
I'll be able to try on
That sounds like a challenge
I like that
We'll have to set that up
I don't like her sinister
I mean yeah she's just like
I'm going to fucking murder you is what she's saying
That's exactly what I was thinking
All right last question
When do we get to watch you play again
I'm taking a month off and I'll be playing
In Thailand
Thailand and Singapore
I'll be in Thailand with my first tournament
February 17th is when I leave
So, oh, wait, 70's going to land.
