Starting point is 00:01:44 All right, folks, we are joined by an incredibly special guest, the 2019 U.S. Open champion, Mr. Gary Wooden, I'm sure that does not get old here. No, that sounds really, really good. say it again if you want so we're here in new york city uh you obviously i mean it's tuesday afternoon you finished up on sunday evening i feel like the past day and a half have probably been a whirlwind for you to say the least it was uh we had a good time sunday night it was uh it was fun there was some uh justin thomas jordan speed some guys hung around which was pretty cool to celebrate with them
Starting point is 00:02:13 i had a lot of friends and family there so that was a good night um long travel day here yesterday and it's you know done a lot of media which is cool um you know a lot of good things come with winning so that's pretty cool yeah it's probably cool and people were like, oh, Gary Woodland? Yeah. I mean, they walked up here off the elevator into the Barstall H.Q just holding the trophy. That's a hell of a way to walk into place. Arguably the best entrance in Barstall history.
Starting point is 00:02:34 I mean, I can't even see Trent and Frankie right now because this trophy is between us, which is spectacular. It's beautiful. So you win, you put out, you know, you see family and there's, again, there's probably a little bit of a whirlwind. Once you finish those media commitments, I saw you walk in like the tap room. How nice is that moment we were able to be like, all right, boy. That was cool. It was nice to be done. And we got in there.
Starting point is 00:02:54 It was cool. There were a lot of people there, too, which was, you know, it was the first time I've kind of been congratulated, I would say, you know, outside the media. And then you have friends and family there. And then, you know, the fun stuff started. It was nice to celebrate. It was nice to kind of relax a little bit, open up the cup and get some liquid going in. What did you put in that thing?
Starting point is 00:03:13 We got some vodka in there. I've said before we, Jordan Speath was with me, so I'll blame him. We didn't know how to get the top off. I've seen people drink out of it before, but so we actually drink out of the bottom of the cup upside down until the USDA came up and they told us we were doing it wrong and they showed us how to get the top off. So we finally did get the top off and drink the right way. That's incredible. I will say that we saw the trophy on what was that Friday. I think it was Friday. So they brought it over to our radio station and I just I just touched it with my bare hands.
Starting point is 00:03:40 And I think the USDA all everyone like got into motion. There was people talking on walkie talk. He's like Frankie touched it with the bare hand. But I did some movement up there and I thought I could crank that thing open. So maybe I, maybe I loosened it up for you. I need some tips. I feel like a lot goes, like, that's a big container. It's a huge container. We had a bottle of vodka in there, you know. Just no problem. It fit very nicely.
Starting point is 00:04:02 Like it was supposed to be in there. It was perfect. So let's talk a little golf. Any signs early in the week? Anything leading up to it with your game, with a vibe, a pebble vibe, anything like that that kind of made you think earlier in the week, like, all right, this might be, whenever you go on to something special here. I've played well this year, which helps, obviously, you know, with momentum.
Starting point is 00:04:20 But I've played well in the last couple majors. It was nice. I was leading last year after 36 holes in Belle Reeve. And that was the closest tournament I'll ever play to home in Kansas, which was cool. I played with Tiger on Sunday there. And I learned so much from that deal. There was so much energy and atmosphere. Something like I'd never seen on the golf course.
Starting point is 00:04:38 And I learned a lot. I let the outside kind of bother me a little bit. Got out of my element early in that round. So the goal going to this way, especially once I got the lead, was to block everything out. Try to take in the beauty of Pebble Beach, block out all the noise, and stay with it. within myself. And I did that probably better than I ever have anything in my life. How hard is that to do? I mean, you're going into the final round. Obviously, you played really well to get there. I think 65 Friday. You backed that up with a 69, like two really good rounds
Starting point is 00:05:04 in a row. You're going into Sunday. I mean, you've got rows right there. You've got Brooks right there. You've got Rory's not far away. How hard is it for you to block those things out? It was tough. And, you know, I go do media after Saturday's round. And all I hear is my record, you know, 0 for 7 with 54 whole leads in my career, you know, pounded. I mean, I think every question was almost negative in that stem point. But for me, I try to turn that into a positive, try to say, hey, records are meant to be broken. And I think I said it so many times Saturday night.
Starting point is 00:05:31 I woke up Sunday morning and I believed it. And I went out and it was nice for me to get off to a good start because Kepka came out firing right out of the gates. You knew he would. What he's done lately is tremendous. So it was nice for me to make Bertie on two and three and kind of slow his momentum down a little bit. That 0-4-7 thing is kind of bullshit too.
Starting point is 00:05:47 Because if you remember in Hawaii, I mean, you shot 5167 with a lead. Yeah, I mean, come on, Zander. I mean, what's that? Yeah. What's doing out there, man? And I think, you know, I learned from that, too, because when I made Bertie on 11 there, I think Maui, I had a three-shot lead. And I'm like, I was playing so good.
Starting point is 00:06:04 I'm like, I got this. I mean, these things went. And then Zander holds out on 12 right in front of me. And I'm just saying like, just the sales, just, you know, the wind came out of the sales. So I didn't let myself get ahead at all last Sunday. And that was really cool. Were you doing any, like, leaderboard watching when you were up there? Like, when we were out there, I'm like, is he on five right now or six?
Starting point is 00:06:21 and looking what Brooks was doing. I didn't have to do too much because it was kind of a three-horse race. It was just really Justin and Brooks. And I was seeing Justin in my group, and Brooks was right in front of me. So I could see and you could hear what Brooks was doing. The crowd was, there was a lot of pro-Brooks guys out there on Sunday, which was cool. But that kind of fired me up too. You know, you felt like you had people rooting against you a little bit, which was awesome.
Starting point is 00:06:43 But him getting off that hot start definitely added to it. Rosie, you know, birded the first hole, right out of the gate, took the lead away. So it was the school. Boar boards were definitely there. The biggest one was on 17. When I had that tight ship off the green, I looked up, and Brooks was putting on the green. I didn't know if it was for Eagle or for Bertie, but I saw him miss it. And that at least gave me a little bit of breath that. No matter what I knew if I made bogey, I'd have a one-shot lead still going into the last hole. I mean, let's talk about that. I know. You said that. You just said like the last
Starting point is 00:07:13 ship. Right. Because I can't. So you come to 17, and things are tightening. I mean, we're all kind of, everybody's trying to do the map. He makes this. If Brooks is hitting it. You might have and you go, all kinds of stuff going on. That chip, you got to hit it over the knob. And we've seen people do that. I mean, even just watching the AT&T forever. You see people kind of get into that spot. First of all, I guess just start.
Starting point is 00:07:31 I'd rather have you just walk us through the entire hole. Yeah. I knew all I was trying to do was get it left of. There's a clock in the middle of the green where that ridge is. And I was just trying to find a way to get it left of that clock. And right when it came out, it was dead right. It wasn't even close to that clock. So I knew it right when I hit it that I was going to chip.
Starting point is 00:07:48 My caddy actually said he's like, at least you've hit this shot before. because I actually had it on Thursday or Friday. I had the same chip shot to a tighter pin, so I chipped it off the green on the same hole twice last week. So he told me right on the T-box, hey, at least you've hit this shot this week. So I was a little bit prepared for it, but it was one of those.
Starting point is 00:08:05 I was just trying to get over the ridge, get it past the hole so I could put up hill and try to take five out. The worst thing I could have done with two thing, I could have laid the sod over it, took a huge divot, which would have been embarrassing. And then you'd heard the crowd, ooh, and then R could have bladed it in the water over the green,
Starting point is 00:08:19 which would have been. I know a little something about that. I'm notoriously the worst chipper in the history of the world. So when I saw you pull that wedge out, I started, I like ducked underneath the table. I'm like, how's he going to do this? The 64, I have 64 degrees, which helps because I can kind of close it down a little bit. And I can make sure I get solid contact. If I had 60 and maybe had to open it up a little bit, would have been a little tougher.
Starting point is 00:08:38 But the 64 allowed me to turn it down and make sure. You picked that thing so clean, man. When they showed the slow motion of your follow-through and the ball just misses, the club just misses the ball. I was like, that is the perfectly placed chip. Under that pressure, it's just unbelievable to pull that off. Thanks. Did you land? You hit that thing exactly where you're trying to?
Starting point is 00:08:55 I thought I made it. I mean, I went up 10 feet up. I might have jumped in the water if it went in. I was so pumped that it came off perfectly. And then I didn't think it was going to miss, to be honest with you. Luckily, it was a tap-in, though, which was nice. I love that he's thinking like, oh, yeah, it's going in. No, it's going on.
Starting point is 00:09:11 I saw Rosie give you a little fist pump there. That was cool. He did. And, you know, his caddy, Lorty, who's an awesome guy, caddy for Henrik Sensen for a long time. and Henrik and I have the same coach, Pete Cowan, and he even walked up and said, Uncle Pete taught you that one, didn't he?
Starting point is 00:09:23 And it was just cool to have them in the moment, you know, give me props. Obviously, it was a special shot in my career, but to be, you know, congratulated by one of the best players in the world is pretty cool. So, you know, we're not great. We're kind of weekend golfers. I fight the hook all the time. When you're standing on 18, how much in your head is just, don't go left, don't go left, don't go left, don't go left.
Starting point is 00:09:42 That was the big deal about having a couple shot lead. I could hit an iron way out to the right. And I wanted, you know, look at my head, I was like, if I can hit just a little four iron out there, hit a five iron and have a wedge in, it's perfect. I pushed the four iron farther right because I didn't want to go left. I get into first cut, and I, it wasn't a great lie because I slid right underneath. I chunk the five iron, to be honest with you. And I came up, and I had eight iron into the hole. And I'm like, I told my caddy, I'm like, all we need to do is get a wedge for a third shot.
Starting point is 00:10:08 And I know I can get a wedge on the green. Eight iron was a little nerve wrecking, to be honest. And when I hit it, I was saying, please go. We couldn't see where it landed because it was a little blind over the bunker. we thought it was actually a little short when got up there was in the middle of the grain. And I took a little bit deep breath knowing that I had three putts to win. Were you a little surprised that your birdie puck went in? Well, yeah, I mean, I was trying to get it close.
Starting point is 00:10:31 But I did know. I mean, I knew Tiger shot 12 under there, you know, in 2000. That's the first thing I said after my caddy, once I made, I got the ball out. And my caddy walked over and he's like, I'm so proud of you. I'm like, you know that was 13 under, right? He's like, no, he's like, I'm like, Tiger shot 12. He's like, he did he? He was so focused on winning.
Starting point is 00:10:48 I'm like, come on, trying to set records out here. I was actually going to ask you. I was like, is that in your head at all that? I knew it. I knew. I would have took 11 under, you know, because I still would have won. But that's pretty cool. How well did the USGA do?
Starting point is 00:11:01 And I know, I mean, they're in here and all that. Right now. How well did they do with Pebble Beach this year? The golf course was perfect. I mean, it was everything you expected. It got tough late in the days. It was firm. The greens were the best Pohana greens.
Starting point is 00:11:16 ever seen. Pebble, you know, I haven't played Pebble sometimes in the past, just because they can get bumpy, especially during the AT&T. They were absolutely perfect. The golf course setup was what it should be. It was you hit good shots. You got rewarded. You hit bad shots. You got penalized. You had to drive the golf ball and play. You have to keep it below the hole. If you kept below the hole, which fortunately I did all week because I drove it in play, you could be aggressive making pots, and that's what you had to do. Another shot we got to talk about that we kind of skipped over 14. Your second shot on 14. I mean, that hole is giving people fits. forever. It's just kind of an awkward, like tough par five, the uphill second shot. I think you were
Starting point is 00:11:52 what, 264? I mean, you probably remember better than I do. Walk us through the second shot on 14. 263 up 10, 273. All week I'd tell my caddy, let's play aggressive. Let's play aggressive. I'm playing good. Let's play to win, play to win. And I knew I had a one-shot lead. I saw Justin Rose from a very similar situation lay up. I know left. I hit the chip shot left of that hole in the practice round, and it's just not great. Right's out of bounds. And so it was the first time probably all week I was in my head going to play conservative. I was going to lay up. And my caddies said, hey, let's hit it.
Starting point is 00:12:24 Let's go. Let's take this three. What it's a perfect number. Hit it over the green and we'll get it up and down. And that's what, that only gave me confidence in that shot, which it came out perfectly. But it gave me confidence the last four holes. This guy believes in me. You know, under, I hit this ball out of bounds.
Starting point is 00:12:39 This golf tournament's over with. And with five holes left, we could have played conservatively, made par, and, you know, bought it a little closer. but that gave me a two-shot cushion, which really gave me confidence and kind of sealed the deal. So we've had a lot of caddies in the show. We love caddies. Brennan Little's your guy. Was that the biggest? I was going to ask you again, you keep stealing my questions.
Starting point is 00:12:56 I was going to ask you. He's been through every media at this point, too. He knows. Right. No, shit. He's like, this is a lot. You got a heater. Nothing I haven't seen before, pal.
Starting point is 00:13:03 He's not a heater. Was that the biggest call he made all week? Because I love when Caddies kind of step in there. And how hard did he have to talk you off that? Was he just like, no, go for it. I'm a guy that I actually listen. So when he, I'll complain about it later, but I listened to everything he says. So if he would have told me to lay up, I would have laid up.
Starting point is 00:13:20 That was the biggest call he's had in my career. For three years, we've been together over three years. That was the first time that he's kind of stepped in and said, this is what, this is the play. You know, usually he's like, hey, you know, maybe we play, he likes to play a little more conservatively than I do. That was the first time he's stepped in and said, this is it, let's go. And it really took any doubt, any question out of my mind. He's been in that position before. he won, you know, he won the Masters being on Mike Weir's bag.
Starting point is 00:13:46 So it's nice to have a guy that's been there and done that. And it was huge for me. I think that's a huge step in our relationship as well. What's that driving iron? Is that a two iron that you hit off those T's? It was. I actually took the two iron out of the play after the first day because I was struggling with it. So I put a three iron in.
Starting point is 00:14:01 And I was hitting stingers with three irons all week. And the stingers, especially out there, that golf course, the Stinger is a shot that I trust because I know I can get in the fairway. So out there, I don't have to hit a lot of drivers. so I hit a lot of those stingers. Keep the ball on play, but that was the three iron I played. The first time I actually played that iron, I'd never hit that club. I just got a new set of irons about five weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:14:22 That was just in my locker. I put it in 20 minutes before I teed off on Friday. It was the first time I hit it was on the range right before I went to the tee. I mean, come on. Just adding to it. Explain to me like I'm an idiot that doesn't know. How do you hit that low, like, missile stinger? How do you do that?
Starting point is 00:14:37 You know, growing up, I hit the ball way farther than I do now. I just had no idea where it was going. I hit it all over the map. And I was working with Randy Smith, worked with him for a long time. And he's like, we have to have one shot that we can hit in the fairway. Like if you have to hit it in the fairway. So that's when, you know, it was 2005. Tiger Woods was hitting stingers all over the place.
Starting point is 00:14:56 You're like, I want to do that. I want to do that. That works. That seems to be working. So we decided to hit that shot. So we used to put sticks out, you know, 30, 40, 50 yards out. And I would try to hit these sticks out, just trying to get the line and flight down. So it started, you know, what was that 14, 15 years ago, and it's transcended.
Starting point is 00:15:14 I'm able to work it both ways. I'm able to do a lot more with it now. How far does that thing go? It depends. I get it to the British Open. It's going to go over 300 yards because it comes off so hot and it rolls the ground so firm over there. Pebble was the fairways were a little softer than I anticipated, so it wasn't going.
Starting point is 00:15:29 There was a couple holes that didn't get out there as far as I'd like to. You get up there. Like, oh, man. Gosh, I should have hit one more. It can get going. If it's firm, I can easily hit it 270, 280. How far is your stock seminar and go? $192.
Starting point is 00:15:44 You knew that pretty quickly. I like that. It's his job to know. No, I know. I always just get mine. There's like a 30-yard window that it could go. What's the thing, first thing you're going to do when you finally get home? Hug my son.
Starting point is 00:15:56 I haven't seen my son. You know, it's, it was tough not to have in there. My wife's expecting, you know, we have identical twin girls on the way very shortly. So seeing my son tomorrow morning when I get home is going to be pretty cool. Who's the most interesting person that's reached out, most surprising person that's reached out and congratulated you? I've had, you know, the mayor back home, the mayor in Del Rey, where we live now. Chris Paul, I'm a big basketball guy.
Starting point is 00:16:24 Chris Paul's was pretty cool, Charles Barkley. You know, when you get guys from other sports like that reach out, you know, that's pretty cool. Yeah, if you had to put a handicap on your basketball game, what would you call yourself? I have the ultimate green light in my head. I don't know what my handy. I can shoot the heck out of it. I say I saw a video. You shooting a Steph Curry type three.
Starting point is 00:16:45 It was deep. I don't know. I think it might have been a high school tape. It was great. Love a good high school highlight tape. Trent's got one of him. I've got a great one. That's why he brings that up.
Starting point is 00:16:53 I think all the time. Yes. I recommend it to everybody. What were you, a linebacker, Trent, dad? I was a linebacker. If we want to talk about my highlight tape, we can. It's on YouTube.
Starting point is 00:17:03 Parcel Trent. He makes this interception, one-handed. Yeah. I mean, I can't even watch it without feeling a little something. It's crazy. I don't know how we got the topic on me. The U.S. Open Champ is here, but I feel good about it. Trent, you're great.
Starting point is 00:17:14 So we've praised you a lot. What's the worst shot you hit all week? Well, that T shot on 17 was bad. I chunked that shot on 14 on Saturday. It was a 50-yard shot. I was a little nervous to hit it over the green. I knew Long was dead. And I got very, very lucky that ball stayed on the green.
Starting point is 00:17:31 It stayed there. I ended up making, you know, the 50-footer for par. But I chunked that shot, and that shot on 17 on Sunday was one of the worst iron shots I hit. Oh, sorry, you can go. No, go ahead. When you're on 18, I just wanted to, I've always wondered this with guys who are about to win major championships.
Starting point is 00:17:47 You know that there's a photo that's going to be taken of you after you hit that final put. Are you, like, thinking about what your celebration is going to be, or do you just let it go? Because you had a couple strokes lead, right? So you had a chance to think about it. I might have thought about it if I had to tap in. Okay. I didn't have anything to think about when I was 30-footer.
Starting point is 00:18:03 It came out great. You're turning around, awesome. Huge grandson. I mean, whoever has that shot of you facing all those fans is going to to be, I mean, I'd have that on top of my bed. Yeah, it all kind of came out of me. I don't show a lot of emotion out there on the golf course, and that was the first time I realized, you know,
Starting point is 00:18:18 the golf tournament was over with, and it all just came out. You know, I think, like I said, I was more nervous after that golf because I just wasn't ready for all that. I was ready to hit another golf shot, and fortunately, I didn't have to hit enough. So what's the plan going into a place like Royal Port Rush? I mean, you already talked about kind of hitting the stingers and all that, but how do you prepare for something like that? How do you research something like that?
Starting point is 00:18:38 How do you get ready for a tournament like that? Fortunately, I work with Pete Cowan. He's been there, which helps. So I'll rely on him. I'll try to pick Graham McDowell's mind a little bit. Graham grew up there. Graham and I were neighbors for a long time in Orlando, so we're good buddies.
Starting point is 00:18:53 So I'll see if I can sneak in a practice around with him. Or even Kepka, because Kepka's caddy grew up there as well. It was a two-time club champion there at Port Rush. So I'll try to pick those guys' brains a little bit. But I'll get in on Sunday the week before, get 18 holes in Sunday, and then kind of just, you know, tinker around, played nine holes, but it takes my time out there and get ready for a golf course.
Starting point is 00:19:12 I love the British Open. It's different. It's links. You have the imagination. You can hit any shot, low, high, the winds are blowing. So a lot of it depends on the, you know, the draw. You know, get lucky with the draw, get on the good side. But it'll be fun over there.
Starting point is 00:19:26 I've never been to Ireland, so it'll be a good time. You kind of feel like you can win any golf tournament now that you've won the U.S. Open? I think that was, you know, growing up, I think that'd be the one major people say I couldn't win would be the U.S. Open. ever thought I could drive it straight enough. And then on top of that, you take me to a shorter U.S. Open test. You know, Aaron Hills and these other golf courses probably suited me a lot better than Pebble you would think would. So it's nice to get that stinger, though. Correct. It's nice to get that
Starting point is 00:19:50 one out of the way. Now we've got three other ones to win. All right. Well, you're a U.S. Open champions. I feel like they always say, you know, you want to major when the S. Open changed your life to feel like you change your life? Not yet. I mean, having twin girls here in a couple weeks going to change my life. That changes a lot. But I'm just excited. You know, this, it's been a world. in the last couple, you know, 36, 48 hours. I'm excited to get home and kind of take a deep breath and then get back to work. I still have a long way to go, but I'm excited about the journey. I'm excited, you know, this kind of validates that we're doing the right things.
Starting point is 00:20:20 And I have a lot of good people around me that we'll be able to celebrate this as well. Has anybody told you that you have the type of name where you've got to say the whole thing, Gary Woodland? I feel like there's not a lot of Gary, not Woodland. You get a lot of Gary Woodland.

Starting point is 00:21:11 Thank you. Appreciate it. Thank you. Most guys have tried different ways to last longer, but simply thinking about golf or Frankie's chipping or my bunker blading skills doesn't always work. The folks at Roman an online men's health company are changing the game with Roman swipes, the secret to longer lasting sex. You do want sex to last because long.
Starting point is 00:21:33 Yeah. Because sex is fun, right? I want it to, yeah, it's fun. It's super cool. It's awesome when you get the opportunity to do it. Boy, is it a good time. Roman swipes are close. Sex is awesome.
Starting point is 00:21:45 Proven. Sex is super cool. To last longer in bed. I swear I've had it. How about the line? It's awesome when you get to do it. Anytime, you know, anytime a young man or a young lady allows the opportunity, it gives you the opportunity to do it.
Starting point is 00:21:58 Boy, boy, is that a treat. They are effective, easy to use and fast acting, but don't require prescription. Roman can ship swipes to you in discreet, unmarked packaging, and each swipes packet is small enough to hide in your wallet for whenever you need it. Swipes are great. They're so great they will not transfer to your partner so you can last longer without worry. They're super easy to use. Take the swipes out of the packet, swipe it on, let it dry and you are good to go. That's it. When you go to get roman.com slash four, once again, that is get roman.com slash four. You can get your first month of swipes for just $5 when you choose a monthly plan.
Starting point is 00:22:30 if you use their link, getRoman.com slash four. Again, that's getRoman.com slash four. Gary Woodland, what a guy. What a guy, what a champ. The way he strutted into this office, just holding that trophy with one hand. I think that's the best interest I've ever seen in this office. Maybe the best entrance, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:47 You nailed it right there. I was going to cut you off and say in the office just in general, not just in foreplay, not just in golf, but in the office of Barstle in general and multiple offices too. Casually having the trophy swang by his side was very, Very awesome. His entourage also had him enter like a king. We had our boy Craig from the USGA. A couple other folks, they came in and like parted the double doors and gave it a second. And then it was almost like they dramatized his interest. He came strutting in with that trophy.
Starting point is 00:23:18 I was first in line. So I kind of, I was just there. And he's coming right at me. And he kind of, you know, he gave the, no, no, we're going to go for kind of the Dap. I was presenting the handshake, did a quick adjustment to the DAP, and then you guys sort of were able to read off of that. Well, that sounds like excuses to me because your DAP sounded like a wet blanket. Like, it's all about the noise. I know that Trent says it's all about the finish, but I think it's all about the cupping noise. And yours, I listen back, yours sounded like you smacked a piece of cement. Who, when you see a man for the first time that you ever meet him ever, and he's the champ of the U.S. Open, I wouldn't expect a guy to lead. So I led neutral.
Starting point is 00:23:56 I just came in neutral. And then I would like to credit myself for adjusting and going pretty smooth on the depth. I'm on a rare pun of the time. You just give one option and you're not even close. It was a smooth transition, but I'm just saying the noise was. The noise was so far out of it. It was more, all right, what are we doing, Gary? It was kind of like we're playing chicken on the sidewalk.
Starting point is 00:24:16 And it's like, who's going left, who's going right? I was trying to read his body language. And also there's like fucking USGA people left and right. More people came off that elevator I've ever seen in my life. So I'm trying to figure out what all is. going on here. Meanwhile, execute sort of the greeting. It was a whole thing. I'm on rings aside. I, the, what I learned from your interaction with Gary was invaluable to me because I gave, then gave him the cleanest, crispest dap of all time. I, I didn't even notice it in real time
Starting point is 00:24:43 and even afterwards after we post the video. But then I just started getting tweets being like, Trent, you handle that like a pro. That was a 10 out of 10. Couldn't have gone better. And I went back and looked, the sound is amazing. Uh, we, we bring each other in like, we're, brothers. Like I met Gary Woodland a million times. And then I, the perfect, uh, dismount, the perfect amount of time on the Dap. And I'm just, I'm just so happy it went so well. But I want to thank Riggs because you were, you're caught in a situation where you don't know what's going to happen. And then you, you adjust it on the fly. And I learned from that. And the result was one of the best daps of all time. Yours was beautiful. Frankie's was beautiful.
Starting point is 00:25:18 Frankie concluded his with like a handshake. Yeah. That was something. There's multiple ways to end a Dap. I'm, I'm deep in the Dap game right now. You can, you can go. So you can go right from the DAP to straight out or you can turn it into a handshake, which is what I did. It was a little more like, hey, I'm your bro, but I'm also here for some business. Like, let's talk about the U.S. Open. I don't know if I've ever gone to a handshake. Dude, there's another one. There's another one where you dapp up, you lock up, and then you give, you both give the shooter fingers.
Starting point is 00:25:45 Oh, I've seen that. Yeah, yeah, especially if you're mimicking like shoot him or something like that. Yeah, but like, like, Coley did that once with like rappers and stuff. Okay. I think the finish, though, is way more important than the same. sound. The finish is good. The finish is, because, like, if you go, like, smiling, there's, like, a deeper connection
Starting point is 00:26:01 there where you don't get that just on the initial clap, but when you pull away and you're both like, that's pretty good. I pride myself to be a good popper. I usually get a nice pop in. See, I'm with, I'm with lurch that the finish, because some people even will go dap and then they'll just slide, clean out. Yeah. Instead of doing the full.
Starting point is 00:26:16 So I didn't know what the fuck he was going to do. I was like, are we locking at the end of this? What are we doing? If I had been, if I had gone first, I would have bet my life that Gary Woodland would would bring you in the dap and then clean out. You wouldn't go fingers. The fact that I saw you go fingers with him, I knew, and I was able to execute. We went.
Starting point is 00:26:32 We know all the trophies at his hip. Oh, it's all over the place. I'm like, Gary, be careful with that thing. He's treating it like Frankie Borrelli out here. So we went dab and then bro hug and then lock and then release. And so you just don't do. He's down the earth. He's the type of guy's going to dab people up when he sees him when he's holding the trophy in his hand.
Starting point is 00:26:50 He seemed like a Barstle fan, the way he was walking around the office talking to us, like looking around being like, thanks. he really was into it like made good eye contact like like everything about his vibe was like I was I was digging it yeah I did see one of my favorite comments on Instagram was some something along the lines of oh you guys forgot to congratulate him which is lawyers if you watch it back each one of us we have the exact same where where I I dab up like oh welcome like great to meet you congratulations and then Trent daddy slides in and goes daps him up congratulations and then Frankie trap dab so congratulations yeah I actually saw those tweets and I thought we
Starting point is 00:27:25 forgot to congratulate him. I didn't go back and listen. I didn't go back and listen. No, it was just, that was like the only thing we said. We each just, like I fucking won this.
Starting point is 00:27:32 It was like we were paying our respects to like a mob boss. But Gary Woodland, you guys just talk about the fact that he loses like 35 pounds when he doesn't have a hat on. Loses 35 pounds, gets a great tan
Starting point is 00:27:43 and just looks amazing all around without a hat and that he won two million dollars. Looks like a totally different person. People were, people were commenting on Instagram, who is that? They're like,
Starting point is 00:27:52 who's that person holding the US open? I thought about not posting it answering because I didn't think people were going to know who it was without the hat on. You put the hat on him, that's U.S. Open chain. You take the hat off, like, who's this just good-looking guy holding a trophy? Yeah, in the button down in jeans. Like, he just fucking... And he's like the happiest dude of all time in the picture in front of the Barstool logo, the one of just him holding...
Starting point is 00:28:08 I think the USGA put it up and, like, we put it up as well. But there's a picture of Gary Woodland holding the trophy, the U.S. Open trophy. They have to come up with a trophy. I didn't want to say that in front of them. Has to come up with a name. How do they not have a fucking name? Every trophy has a name. You got like the Claire Chug, the Wanamaker, the Stanley Cup.
Starting point is 00:28:24 It's just the U.S. Open Trophy. It's the worst name of all time. It's really on the people who... Well, it's not a name, I would say. Yeah, it's just a nameless, amazing trophy. The fact that they dropped that ball originally is unforgivable. Let's open it up to the listeners. Tweet at us or email Riggs.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Call them Rigsie Trophy names. Rigsy Metals. Rigsy medals. Rigsy names of the medals. What should the U.S. Open Trophy? Don't lock it. What should it be? I want to hear people's suggestions. It's, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:52 I want to see what, like, if someone comes up with something where it just catches your eye. We'll just start calling it that and then they'll have to adopt it. Like, holy shit, that sounds like, it's got to be a crisp, clean, bright, metal, like, like silver, silver shining. Like, like, you're at Pebble Beach, you can see the ocean off the, off how shiny it is, that type of name. I got to say, the Stanley Cup might be the best name of any trophy. That's incredible. That's a great one. Stanley Cup.
Starting point is 00:29:16 Stainless, stainless, ceiless comes in your head. Really, I don't know. There's anything like it. We chatted with him about the trophy and he, interesting, how he was like, yeah, we couldn't, we legit couldn't figure out to get the top off. So we just flipped it upside down and we're drinking out of the bottom of it. I've been there. You know, you've been there with, like, wine bottles. You've been there?
Starting point is 00:29:35 No, you know, some of those bottles of beer, too, that come fancy where they have like a fucking cage on the top of it and you're standing there all day and you don't want to look like the idiot that doesn't know how to open a certain thing? So then you just eventually, you just kind of abandon it and get something different. I imagine that experience with the U.S. Open Trophy. We used to do that with Capri Sons. You remember the top of a Capri's Sun? The little hole used to be impossible to penetrate. You just flip that sucker upside down and drink out of the bottom of it. You're right.
Starting point is 00:30:01 That's what I did. Gary Wilden and I did the same thing. You could poke that fucking thing anywhere on the bottom. It's a huge surface area on the bottom that you can get through. And the top was like they were like trying to keep you from drinking the caprice. What do you think outside the box? That's just flipping the equation that they give you on their head. Yes, you do on that little hole now.
Starting point is 00:30:16 To the point where it was so. It was so hard that we wouldn't even, once we were drinking Capri Sons, we would just flip it over immediately, not even try the top. The bottom was so much easier. The size of a pinpoint that you had to stick that thing in on the top. It's like a drone strike that's like the size of a penny. So you just flip that sucker upside down? Shout out to Capri's son.
Starting point is 00:30:31 I haven't drank one of those in two decades. Yeah, so good for Gary Woodland. I sure you drank them under the table when you were younger, though. I could see Tripping those things. The fact that he had a whole system. I'm not even going to look at Frankie right now. The fact that he had a whole system on like right when he got it, he turned it upside down.
Starting point is 00:30:46 Didn't even mess with the surface. whatever the fuck he's talking about. Also, he's drinking five capriced stuff. He knew about the Domestic area. I hammered red Gatorade's when I was a kid. Did you get the red Gatorade mustache? Yes. And then all over your stupid like white shirt is a kid.
Starting point is 00:30:59 There was always that. I mean, I was the goofiest bastard ever walking around the hallways. Oh yeah. There's always that kid in the friend group that always had just those red outer lips or the blue outer lips. Like that fucking kid has no idea. Men are eating like nacho cheese Doritos and he's like, oh, I'll go to math class. Very interesting to hear Gary Wood. talk about how he knew that that putt on the last hole was to beat Tiger's record.
Starting point is 00:31:21 Kind of incredible that that's in his brain because you're thinking like, man, that guy's just grinding and trying to actually lock it up and win a U.S. Open its first major championship. And he's over there saying to his caddy, like, yeah, that one got us to 13. We beat Tiger's record. Like, I would have never guessed that was on his mind. Yeah, that's amazing. It's amazing to have that type of, like, you know, awareness. And especially to, like, to think that and then nail the put and, like, actually execute is
Starting point is 00:31:45 incredible. I'm actually glad one of the things. that I've always wondered about these athletes and something that I'll probably ask more champions and hopefully Tiger Woods because he's the greatest of all time at doing this is those celebrations that end up being like fucking logos right like we put them on shirts and stuff and logos of like things that people idolize and these moments when they hit these big putts and big shots like are they prethinking these things like is Tiger Woods walking up to like 17 or 18 knowing he's about to win like if I nail a put at Augusta like I'm going to do this like when he won this year.
Starting point is 00:32:17 was he thinking like what's going to be my photo like like do they think about that and i mean woodland said that had he missed it he had something thought up like he was just going to tap it in and then he had an idea of what he was going to do but when he nailed it he just fucking well that's why i asked him he was surprised that the putt went in because you're thinking at that moment right he's got a two shot lead i believe it yeah two shot lead on the last hole he's on the greener regulation it's over the tournament's over so now you're starting to think about the theatrics of it and gets to the point some people were even like big cat came over over and it's like, hey, was that weird and disrespectful that Justin Rose didn't just put out before?
Starting point is 00:32:52 And I was like, well, I don't think anybody thought Gary Woodland's going to make a downhill slider down the hill in U.S. Open Greens at Pebble Beach to finish the tournament. I think he's thinking lag it down to two inches, put a mark on it. Then he gets to kind of take his time, let Rose put out and then walk up and do his little thing. So that's why I kind of asked him if he was surprised that it went in. I think he was, I mean, I think everybody on the green was thinking, yeah, that's what we'll do. I think Rose is probably like, ah, shit, when it went in. Yeah. Let me just finish out.
Starting point is 00:33:19 Let me get out of the way. He's saying that he has to finish up. The tournament's over. Rose can't win. Like, he can't get to that amount of strokes. He's done. And then he has to put out. And the first one he, like, put by.
Starting point is 00:33:27 Then he has to go through his whole routine. It was like, just give the guy guaranteed two putt. Let's keep this thing wrong. What's funny is other guys are watching Rose to see where he's going to finish up money wise. It's like 100%. So guys are like watching it by four feet. It's like, whatever's like third, fourth, fifth. They're all like fucking let Rose like figure this out.
Starting point is 00:33:42 Oh, yeah. I've long said that they should have a rule when when one person is mathematically won the golf tournament, they should end it. And wherever people are at, that's where they're at. Even, and it'd get crazy when you get a situation where somebody's like four groups ahead and they post 10 under par or something. And then you've got like four groups on playing 16, 17 and 18. And the tournament just ends.
Starting point is 00:34:03 Whatever score they're at, it just ends. That would be unreal. But how would you know that it's over if the groups are behind them? The officials would have to be like the tournament's over. There's no chance that these people. Well, right. Like if you're six shots behind and you're all, the 16th hole and you were in the final group right you're like three or four over for the
Starting point is 00:34:19 day the other guy shot like 10 under you're out they should be like no you're done it's over tournament till you cannot play golf the tournament is finish that would be unreal but again it was just weird for rose to be out there doing that and that's why i thought he probably uh he probably didn't think he was probably surprised that he made it good for gary woodland very very cool interview great dude like we said we talked about his vibe he's got a really cool vibe he's chill he clearly knew barstool he said a couple times afterwards he's like man he's he's through what you guys are doing. I love following your stuff. So, so Gary Woodland, good, good guy, friend of the program now, great guy to root for, you know, and he was one of those that when you
Starting point is 00:34:56 looked at that leaderboard over the course of the weekend, we talked about it on Monday show, but he was the guy that you kind of thought. I think we even said to each other like, well, I don't like Gary Woodland's going to win this tournament. You got Rose right there. You got Kepka was making a charge. Even like earlier in the weekend, he was making a charge. You had Roy McElroy right there. It was like, there's no way Gary Woodland's going to hold on. even like guys like Shafley were kind of in the mix. So you just thought, I don't know if Gary Wooden's going to be the name that comes out.
Starting point is 00:35:21 And he fucking put his foot down and played some unreal golf. Heard him talk about that chip on 17 and the things that were going through his mind of like, well, if I lay the sod here, I still have this impossible shot. And I'm going to hear everyone in the whole gallery go, oh. And like,
Starting point is 00:35:37 terrible. The fact that that was on his brain, the fact that like sculling it over the green and the water was on his brain. And he took a 64 degree wedge out. from the fucking surface of a U.S. Open Green and pitched it over that mound onto that downslope thought it was going to go in, he said. So really, really cool stuff.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Awesome interview. Glad he came by. Yeah, shout out to Gary Woolen. The highlight of the interview for me was when he let me talk about my high school football tape. So, again, if you want to go on YouTube, you can, it's Barstool Trent football highlights. You can watch those.
Starting point is 00:36:05 And, you know, check those out. We were out in California. We were for the whole week. We played a lot of golf. We did a lot of coverage of the U.S. Open. And when it was sunny out, I was rocking. And many people are asking, what are those shades?
Starting point is 00:36:17 What are you got on there? Well, they're shady rays. Shady rays, they're an independent sunglass company. They're not just some big corporation, some big corporate company that overcharges for shades. Everyone knows sunglasses are typically overpriced.

Starting point is 00:37:48 Backpiled like 15 videos right now That we have filmed over the last month Stockpiled Backpiled backpiled Backpiled hit me like a ton of bricks In a bad way Backed up Backed up
Starting point is 00:38:00 Stockpiled I didn't know the correction So I was like maybe that's right Backed up Words You're trying to say words We've got 15 videos that we've filmed I gotta get this shit off my phone
Starting point is 00:38:10 That haven't been edited yet I have no storage on my phone. I spent three hours with Jake today trying to get videos for my phone onto these goddamn hard drives. Can't get them on my computer because my computer is so full that nothing will transition to my computer first. I'm sure that was great today. A screenshot wouldn't even save. I'm sure that went seamless and easy. It took us three hours.
Starting point is 00:38:31 It took us forever. Calm, cool, collected. I'm sure I'm sure that was a really good experience for Jake when you were trying to transfer 18 gigs of videos from your phone. What's a great experience first? And you're like, what the fuck is going on? I can't get it from here to here. Like, there's nothing worse than when you select like 30 videos to air drop, okay? You air drop them and then it goes preparing and that fucking clock goes around in a circle.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Takes like 20 minutes. Gets to the end and then it just says in red letters, failed. It's outrageous, man. I thought you were going to say when you do that and then you have no idea how much time it's actually going to take. And then it just says like six hours and 31 minutes. And that's devastating because you have no idea. But you failed is awful. It's the year 2019.
Starting point is 00:39:13 We have all this technology, all these amazing computers. Apple has this system in which every time you take a picture, the video pops up on your laptop, your iPad, your MacBook, everywhere. It's like all in the cloud. But then when you're at work, it's somewhere like this and you're an immediate company. Sending like the smallest video to a laptop or a hard drive is the most difficult thing in the world. When I'm doing pizza reviews of Dave, getting like a three-minute video from his phone onto my computer is impossible. I know people are like Dropbox, sometimes like it just doesn't work. And like Dropbox like loses quality and like We Transfer just doesn't fucking work.
Starting point is 00:39:47 Like if I want to, if I take a thousand videos and I want to just put it on a computer, it should be as simple as dragging it. I plug my phone in and I just drag it. That doesn't work either. iTunes can't find your phone and you know your past. Tech breaks, you know? Tech sales rep. Tech breaks. We just got to work through it.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Frankie, what you just said, I might have said to Jake in different phrasing 35 times today. It's crazy that you can't get a picture. And everyone's going to be like, you can't get. a picture. No, no, you can't. You can't get this stuff because I live it every day. I've checked on how to do it. You've just been waiting for this platform to touch about this. God, it's so frustrating, Chris. Sounds frustrating. I can, I can, last night I watched billions, I was catching up on billions. Unbelievable show. They just do it right. Every season. Is this your Rigsie Rex? Four seasons in a row knocked it out of the park. Really good shit. I know. I feel like I should get back into it.
Starting point is 00:40:35 Really, really good shit. This is the one where the, where the cop is like a, They're into, like, kinky, like, sex shit. Well, yeah, well, it's Paul Giamati. He likes the BDSMR. Right, right, right, right. Yeah, they like, he likes to get whipped. I wouldn't say that's the main part of the show. That wouldn't be my first topic.
Starting point is 00:40:54 I didn't say that was the main part. It's a weird part of his character. Oh, okay. I was making sure I'm on the right show. He's like, he's weird. I didn't know Paul Giamati was on that show. He's an unbelievable actor. Anyway, like last time I'm sitting in my bed.
Starting point is 00:41:05 I'm sitting in my bed. I'm sitting at my bed. You pull up your phone on your app and it shows up on your TV. And I literally laughed at myself like, I couldn't get the pizza review on my computer today. And I just, I'm watching HD stuff that through the air, it's going from my phone to the, to the TV. I'm with you on that. I do the same thing through my phone and it's absolutely amazing how it works. It amazes me every time when I hit the button that it actually works and it actually does what I ask.
Starting point is 00:41:28 Casting something on your TV. Just through the air and now it appears there. Mine even turns on the TV, which I don't, that's just part of it. So you just hit a button on your cell phone. My TV turns on. I look at it in pure amazement, every. every time and then it just loads up an HD and somehow it's just zapping over.
Starting point is 00:41:43 And you can use your phone for those things during the time. It's like the TV just now, the TV now works on its own, right? Meanwhile, I'm on my fucking phone. I'm sitting on this plane, man. I'm trying to watch a video that I took an hour ago and I get that fucking loading circle. Yo, because I'm fucking latched up to the cloud. So he'll be like, oh, I'll say, yo, can you show me my swing on the video? And he'll go to his photos.
Starting point is 00:42:06 He'll click on it. And it'll give him a pinwheel. I've never seen that in my time. It's on. It's your phone. It's your photo. In video. In my video that I...
Starting point is 00:42:14 You're not your photos anymore. They're out in the cloud. It's like someone has to approve me from fucking God from heaven up there. Where is it loading it from? I don't know, man. I'm not great with the technology. No. The main point of this.
Starting point is 00:42:27 My dad would love this conversation. You'd be like, you know what? I got some things I want to say too. We should actually have all the dads call him for this moment as they just go like this. That would be a nine-hour show. We're going to get a million emails from... fucking dads everywhere, being like, thank you. Finally.
Starting point is 00:42:43 Finally. A show for me. Here we go. So YouTube, our YouTube page, we're putting all our videos up there. We've got 18 holes where Frankie and I played Aldera golf club up in the Seattle area with Kevin Chappell, who's giving us lessons. He's chirping. He's very funny. He's Kevin Gisner's best friend on tour.
Starting point is 00:43:04 So I should tell you plenty about Chappell. We had him on the show back in, I think, February, he had non-fusion back surgery. So he's just kind of starting to get back now, starting to swing and whatnot. We've got, basically we videoed every shot that Frankie and I hit that whole round. So we've got that that our guys have to edit. We have the 18 holes from Pebble Beach. We have 18 holes from Chambers Bay. We have nine holes from Glen Oaks when we played out there during the Bethpage PGA week.
Starting point is 00:43:29 And then we've got like 10 of the Riggsverse or Four Playverse videos where we played Spyglass with Whitney. We're playing Pasta Tiampo. I played Black Rock up in the Boston area. We've got all these videos at the boys. Now we're home for a couple weeks, okay? We even got vacation coming up. We're going to film like 15 more videos on that. But the fourth of July is coming up.
Starting point is 00:43:47 But the point is we've got a bunch of videos coming out. Our crew, Will and Jake, they've got a bunch of editing to do. But we've got a million videos coming out to go subscribe to our YouTube page. Type in Foreplay Golf. We've got like 15,000 subscribers now. We'd like to get a lot more. So go check it out. YouTube.
Starting point is 00:44:02 Brand new thing. Everybody's kind of learning about it. A couple other things I touch on that are upcoming. some matches. We were sitting around last night, Lurch and I, we were watching this video that Kiz sent me. So we, of course, chatted. I'm going to play against Kevin Kisner
Starting point is 00:44:15 in an intense match where he's going to use only a five iron. I get to use everything, 14 clubs, normal golf match for me. He's going to use just a five iron. He texted me last night and said, I will beat your ass. And then he sent me a video of him on the 17th hole at Augusta National Golf Club
Starting point is 00:44:32 in a green side bunker, hitting this fucking bunker shot with a five iron. I don't know if I've showed you guys this. Holy shit. It's amazing. His finish is incredible. Why is there a grandstand there? Yanks it out.
Starting point is 00:44:43 Because the Masters, dude. Oh, it's still up? Well, this isn't from yesterday. No, this is like... You just make it seem like he said it to you recently. Look at this thing. His finish is unbelievable. So he's a green side bunker with a five-hound.
Starting point is 00:44:56 Greenside bunker at Augusta National. He's short-sided. And he's got this crazy stance. His hands are super low, face wide open. And he does this little like pop stroke where he kind of re-revellinger. coils and it just pops out and dribbles out to, I don't know what that is. Why is he probably six feet? Because he's Kevin Kisner and he's just a clown.
Starting point is 00:45:15 But he says it's pretty commonplace for him to play matches against guys and his goal is usually to break 80. He said he's usually right around 80. That's a lot of what I shoot is right around 80, low 80s. If I play well, high 70s or mid-70s, so it would be a very good match. So that's coming up where we're going to have that match. I think it's good. That's what I said.
Starting point is 00:45:34 He's never going to miss his shot. Yeah, but what I said. He has a five iron. Doesn't matter. He's going to be straight the whole way down. So what I said is he's got... Rick's got to find courses that every green is protected by a bunker or water. So he can't just run something up there and just let it roll.
Starting point is 00:45:49 He needs to be pure protected. If he's 80 yards out with a perfect skirt in front, he's going to stick that thing to two feet. He's just going to figure it out. So what he's got... I'm sure he's good with it. But if he does have water or bunkers in front, he's going to be... But if his goal is to break 80 usually, like, clearly he shoots at least. He averages like 6 to 10 or 12 over pocket.
Starting point is 00:46:07 or like that's you know what I mean so yeah it's not like it's just it's the consistency that like he's always going to be down the middle totally he's always going to be in front of the green and a second shot consistency he's a top player in the world right dude he's the 27th best at something in the world there's going to be a couple there's like eight billion people in the world a lot of people out there probably I bet off the tee I bet he can move that thing out there like 220 probably two 10 there's going to be a couple holes where like you hit one just like in shit and he's just going to dust one right down the middle and that may be you're like six and he's going to make a three.
Starting point is 00:46:40 I mean, I think he's going to lay up to 205, 210 every time. He's just going to pop it out there. Yeah, but that's tricky, right? Like, I don't think he'll ever miss it a shot is my point. Maybe he'll find himself in like a bunker or maybe he'll like struggle with the yardage. I don't think he'll ever miss hit a shot. My money's on him. I think you'll get so beat down mentally with like him never miss hitting a shot.
Starting point is 00:47:02 You're like, what the fuck is going on? That's true. I know he's going to be really good. putting with it too but if he's got like a six foot slider with a five iron like the way he he's like oh i'll just choke down put my arms in front and that thing's better than a putter i'm like come on kaiser when he said that i was he kidding me that's outrageous so i'm better than a so that kind of flew under the radar because it was u.s open week but we had that debate and again he was taxed me that like he wasn't even joking he's like i'm gonna beat your ass is what he said
Starting point is 00:47:26 so we got that um we've also got myself against whitney um i think most people know i mean we kind of settled it. I'm getting three strokes against Witt. We're playing for $10,000. Each one of us putting up $10,000. Cash, we'll have it on site. We are targeting now September or October, I think, is the move. Is all business Pete in this decision? Is this like a real thing now?
Starting point is 00:47:50 Like we're really targeting it to do it right? Correct. Oh, no. All biz Pete and I have had serious discussions. Pete has said, I'm ready. Give me a couple months and I'm ready. Like, he's mapped this thing out. He fucking, like, he went out in the morning one day when we were at Pebble Beach and
Starting point is 00:48:04 did a scouting mission on how to cover golf and was like plotting things down with like a notebook and shit incredible so he's Pete's ready to go he's very confident uh so where we're at and and i kind of said this on radio yesterday but i'd like to reiterate here because we get a lot of notes about this that drive me crazy where people are like how could you two fucking idiots not just coordinated tea time in the next two months to go look well you have to realize we're partial sports we're and i aren't just going to go out play a golf course and then just tell people what happened we're going to live stream the entire thing we are probably going to to do pay-per-view for it.
Starting point is 00:48:35 We're going to have six cameras, two gigantic production trucks that Pete says are the size of, like, tractor trailers. We got to get like Dave, Big Cat, you know, whoever else, maybe Ron and Caleb on the on course reporting. We got to get Biz Nasty to be able to be there scheduling-wise to be on Witts bag, Frankie, on my bag. We probably want to get somebody like maybe Kiz or Bryson or Brandl or somebody else to jump in on the commentary that really knows golf.
Starting point is 00:48:59 That would be good. We've got to coordinate all that. Should we got to have the reason I said six cameras, Pete wants to have. have four cameras on each hole. So, like, two on the T, capturing all the interactions and, like, the T shots, and then two out in the fairway near the greens, capturing where the ball lands, and then two leapfrogging them that are, like, ready in position on the next hole, and then they run that system the whole time. So there's a lot of moving parts and a lot of stuff. On top of that, you have to get a course that agrees to this, right? Of course has to be like, yeah, you can bring
Starting point is 00:49:25 in two gigantic production trucks, a million different people, cameras. You know, you can shut down basically the course of play for a Saturday or a Wednesday or whatever we decided to do that. So there's a lot of bullshit that goes into this, but we want it to be awesome. We want it to be watchable. We're trying to get Top Tracer in the mix. I almost don't know that you can go backwards and watch a serious golf thing without it now. So we got to have kind of that in the mix. So there's a shit ton of stuff going on.
Starting point is 00:49:48 We're targeting course in the Northeast. I don't know that we're going to be able to do spectators, most likely not. I said this again on radio yesterday, but when you have spectators, like you got to feed them, you got to give them drink. If you do that, they've got to have places to go to the bathroom. They got to be able to walk all over the golf course. 99.9% of courses just aren't equipped for that, nor do they want that. So even though it would really add to the experience to have spectators,
Starting point is 00:50:11 I don't know that we're going to be able to sell tickets. Now, we might do like 50 or 100 people, so it feels like an old school like, you know, 1,900 fucking match where you've got like at least it looks like people were kind of buzzing around the green, maybe get 54 play fans, 50 Chichlitz fans and like the rest of barstool people there. So it looks like there's 100 or 150 people. we'll probably do something like that we'll see we haven't made up all these decisions going to depend on the course and all that my next question would be like what other matches what other big matches could four play do could we do and we don't have to answer right now maybe people suggest stuff for us but golf matches there's a lot there you know people I think really get into when there's normal people playing golf or something right I will say the only inner squad matches we've ever done is Frankie and I versus you and Trent at Bethpage so we're one and oh there but thinking through a good match. Keep that thing running.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Yep, that's a nice one. But, I mean, yeah. Trent Daddy also shaved like 40 strokes off his game since then. We just told him we get a gym. You'd be running into a buzz stop. We play today, my man. Trent Daddy's his game off the tee right now. He's like fucking Greg Norman out there.
Starting point is 00:51:19 I'm just, I fly right over the terrain now. And then we got to figure out the rest of it. But that's fine. We're fucking, we're straight and narrow. We're flying. We're flying. We're flying. By far the most consistent guy of the tea when we
Starting point is 00:51:29 There is a like 230- There is a like 230-yard area on every hole now where Trent has just eliminated like five shots. It's great. And because he just, instead of, you know, kind of like blowing his drive, like a little skanker into the shit and having to hack out for a half hour,
Starting point is 00:51:46 he just flies it overhaul of it into the fairway. It's amazing how much easier it is when you do that. The game is way easier when you play it that way. I'll never forget the fourth hole at Bethpage was just a traumatizing experience for you up the left-hand side. Just an amazing amount of train. I mean, I was where, who hit it? Oh, our guy, Harold Varner hit it over there.
Starting point is 00:52:03 I was like, I know that game, my man. I know that game. You should have. You should have. I should have hopped out there and been like, I know where it is. I probably find a couple of mine back here. Yeah, I don't know what other matches we could do. Good for you.
Starting point is 00:52:16 Yeah, well, we got to think of something. Or have people send stuff in. I mean, we've played tons of golf games. We can put a bunch of different things together. No, I know, but that's not just like us. I'm trying to think, like, you know, who else can we get involved. I remember there were. What do people really want to see.
Starting point is 00:52:28 play that blind guy? I don't know. I want that to happen. I want him to play you. I mean, at this point, he could probably play me and beat me. Oh, a golf course. There's the guy who's like the best blind golfer in the world. He reached out to us after we talked about him on the show. I'm blanking on it now. He was like, anytime you guys want to talk, let me on. And then I believe
Starting point is 00:52:44 it was Frankie who suggested that I should play the blind guy in the match. We got to get that guy in the show because him, the blind guy against Trent. I called my body mush when I was gone. Yeah, I did. The blind guy against Trent in a real golf match. That's another awesome one. I'm going to write that down on my notes, blind.
Starting point is 00:52:59 Jeremy points the net. Person, golfer. My money's on. Versus Trent. What's his name? Trent. His name's Trent. My name's Trent.
Starting point is 00:53:07 My name's Trent. My name's Trent. My name's true. Oh, really? I'm on Trent, daddy. Man, he's so consistent. How good is the blind golfer guy? I mean, what's he's shooting?
Starting point is 00:53:14 I mean, I saw his swing. I know that. Also, what are the rules? Can his caddies line him right up? He has to be able to. Let's not get crazy here. I'm not being, I'm just curious. I think we got accepted rules.
Starting point is 00:53:24 I think the rules are he's allowed to get set up because he, like, once that's over and the guy steps away, he can't see anything. If not, then Trent gets blindfolded. Right. Well, no. No, that's, that's, I think he definitely is allowed to get. I think it's fair to get set up. I don't think, I never said it was unfair.
Starting point is 00:53:42 I just was making sure that we set the ground rules. When we eventually have this guy on, we'll hammer out the details. I don't want there's some controversy on 18 where Trent's like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Rule fucking 82 dash one states that the caddy can't line up the player. We're all like, well, Trent, I mean, he's blind. Like he can't see So, Caddy's got a hell
Starting point is 00:53:59 You're right, you're right We got to hammer all that out We got to hammer all that out I gotta be honest He needs He's caddy is going to be Huge in that match
Starting point is 00:54:06 Big time Huge One of the bigger parts of the match Definitely Huge He's got really Trust that guy man Oh I mean Trent
Starting point is 00:54:12 Trent got Uh Trent got this Trent hasn't looked at Frankie Once this whole show Dude at Spyglass Fucking Trent and Riggs's Cattie lined up
Starting point is 00:54:22 Trent Oh yeah Blind person On a huge Put Like Maybe a game winning put no no no i'm saying he was like uh he goes uh scooch left scooch left scooch left
Starting point is 00:54:33 little more left scooch left then trent made the button whit he's like what the fuck just happened like i yeah i was like i'm inept but i like i can do this yeah we don't want to do this that's illegal we don't fuck wouldn't do that that's bad no we had to have a conversation with him we had to say hey man like look um you have to like let us let us play the game it's he just he just wouldn't he also trette standing over like you know trit had like a one 30 shot you know he's got like a seminary or whatever he's got and he's like he's like a seminary or whatever he's and he's like, okay, Trent, now scooch a little left, scooch a little left, now slide those hands a little forward.
Starting point is 00:55:01 Okay, another inch forward, inch forward, open that face. All right, now ready, take it back. We were like, hey, man, can you just like, let's just let us play the game ago? Did you appreciate that? No, we had to say something. We had to say something. Okay, but I was wondering, I mean, from like your side rigs, like, that would be annoying, but from Trent's side, did you appreciate it or did you hate it?
Starting point is 00:55:19 No one on the planet. No, we didn't want it. I didn't want it. Okay, just making sure. Things were going about as well as they could be going. It's like just let me. Yeah. I know it looks like shit and it's ugly.
Starting point is 00:55:28 And it's probably not going to do all that great, but I'd rather do it myself. You're not going to turn me into scratch. He also had. He also had an incident where, and it's pretty commonplace, right? When you go to the snack shop or something, you grab something for the caddy. It's like, hey, man, you want something. But you instigate that, right? Like the player instigates that.
Starting point is 00:55:44 Yes. We, you know, two or three holes in. We order around like Pink Whitney's. We're getting a couple cocktails. And we order, we're like, yeah, we'll do four Pink Whitney's. And he goes, only four? and we were like all right we'll do five big whitneys
Starting point is 00:55:58 so we do that you know we end up we give them a drink like yeah no problem whatever and we're and again at this point like Whitney had made like a birdie and then we had come back and Trent Daddy had made like a really nice like par net net birdies everybody's kind of in a good mood it's a beautiful morning we're playing spy bass or like whatever well things start to heat up and get really intense
Starting point is 00:56:15 and after like the 12th hole or something we get another round of drinks and at this point like Whitney buys this round and he's like hey I'm gonna buy a couple extra but don't I'm not trying to buy for the caddy like let's just like get our own drinks here and I don't you know I'm a sick of it we're like yeah no problem so he's so sure enough we like to throw the drinks in our cart and our caddy comes rolling up after we get up the fairway and he he like leans his big old head into our cart and he points to one of the drinks he goes oh is that one for me and I just go no he's like oh okay
Starting point is 00:56:44 and then I grab that one a drink and there's another one sitting in there and he leans back in and he goes no no I meant is this one for me and I was like no and he's like is it for Trent? And I just, and Trent wasn't drinking. So I had to lie. I go, yes.
Starting point is 00:56:59 And then he's like, oh, okay. And he backs away. And the Trent had to fake drink it for alcohol. As we were going down the fairway, I was holding it. Oh,
Starting point is 00:57:07 this is so good. This is the, well, he's big Whitney. Everybody's spilt as much as possible as you like bumped down the fairway. And then we had to do like a smooth transition where I like crushed mine, slid it over there and had Trent give me the other one.
Starting point is 00:57:19 He was a whole scene. It was a whole goddamn scene. But anyway. that match that video will be coming out the Whitney match is going to happen we will announce all the updates on that when they um you know when we get them
Starting point is 00:57:33 we know more information a lot of people had asked about that
