Fore Play - Live from Olympic Club: Tiger Emerges, Koepka vs Portnoy, & More

Episode Date: April 27, 2021

The first Tiger photo post-accident has emerged and he looks... great. We react to Tiger’s post, the Zurich Classic ending in alternate shot playoff, and Brooks Koepka lefty vs Dave Portnoy (with Frankie on the bag). And we do this all live from the patio at Olympic Club, minutes after playing it. We also discuss that round without spilling all the juice. We’re all together in person again, so it’s one of those kind of shows.You can find every episode of this show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or YouTube. Prime Members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music.

Hey, 4Play listeners, you can find us every Tuesday and Thursday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Foreplay, I'm sorry, Barstool Sports. We are back, and we are live from Olympic Club, host of five U.S. Open championships. It's the upcoming in the early parts of June this year site for the 76th U.S. Women's Open, and it's going to be awesome. We just played it. We filmed every single shot. We're going to put that video out, U.S. Women's Open,

open week, showcasing quite literally every single shot that we hit. We are also brought to you by our very good friends at Owen's mixers. The Paloma's been hot in the streets lately. I'm seeing all kinds of people lurched tweeting that at us now. Yeah. They love it. I mean, today's a Paloma Day. Yes.

It's just refreshing. It's light. Tequila's kind of an upper, fun drink. Today's a Paloma day. Is tequila on upper? Yeah, it is an upper. Yeah. Big shot's tequila.

Yeah. Is that scientifically proven? Yeah. Definitely. That's where it's going to fall flat over here. I think alcohol in general is a downer, yeah? Yeah. It's an upper on the scale of alcohol.

Okay. Yeah, I'd buy that. Right. Anybody who drank who drank tequila, I think you buy that. Yeah, I don't know if it's going to wake you up in the morning. It might, but. Well, let me ask you, when people are really excited and doing, like, rounds of shots and somebody's like tequila, that's considered part of that, like, upper experience. Yeah.

Yeah. Ooh. That's a different feeling. Well, the point is that now you can take that tequila. You put it in with Owens Mixers, the grapefruit and lime, and it is a paloma, and it's fantastic. I went to a community other day and I asked, maybe it was a too aggressive of a drink, but someone's like, what do you want?

And I said, do you have a Paloma? Can you make me one? And she said no and walked away. So we're going to have to talk with the place I went to and make sure they have some Owens Mixers. Yeah, that's... I don't like that energy that she gave me. I said, what do you don't have tequila?

You don't have, like, grapefruit juice? Yes. You don't have Owens Mixers? When I was bartending in Jersey, this guy used to come in all the time and ask for a double Yeager on the rocks and just sip it. That's one of the darker people who had drinks. That you can order.

Just a warm double Yeager? I'll take a double Yeager on the Ike on the box. Then he would just sit and play fantasy baseball on a regular pad and paper with his buddy. And they would do that all day. Wow. It was a dive bar. We got a guy named Bob that comes to Borrelli's Budweiser every single, every single night. Really?

One bud comes in, says how to people, probably gets a little something to eat. It's amazing. Never miss a day. Every single day. Every single day. Every single day. It's good customer. Unbelievable customer.

Now he could. If he were to try it, he would probably be. hooked on Owens Mixers. 100%. Because they've got the transfusion mix, which is obviously ours. We put our logo on it. We branded it. It's really, really, really good.

It's that time of year. It's Paloma time right now, like Lurch is saying. It's transfusion time on the course. Their grapefruit or their mint cucumber and lime is really good. Their tonic and it's all very good. So big thanks to Owens. Go check them out at their local retailer, Owensmixers.com. It's very simple.

You just pour it in with your favorite liquor and you just have an awesome cocktail. It's that simple. Okay. Olympic Club, you know, an iconic as one of the, you know, more iconic. iconic venues in American golf that there is. We're overlooking Lake Merset right now and Harding Park and just the Bay Area in general. You can actually see the Golden Gate. It's kind of crazy our view right now.

Looking out at San Francisco. I just caught eyes. I just laid eyes on the Golden Gate. I didn't think that we could see it. I saw it from a golf course, but I didn't think we could see it from right here. That's incredible. That's just our setting. And the reason that we're here is we're doing a double, basically a double back-to-back.

We're doing a Monday, Tuesday of U.S. Women's Open, and then the men's up. So we have to catch a flight in about two hours. So if it seems like I'm just rapid fire throwing ad reads down your throats right now, it's because I am because we have to catch flight. You are. Yeah, no, that's the play. I told the guys before. I said, I'm whipping you into shape.

If I have to body you on the course here and just get ad reads, then we're going to do it. Quickly, I'm sitting in the worst seat in the house. I think so? I mean, you guys. Rank our seats. You're one. Yes. You're two, three, four.

I've got cat hair on my mic. Right? That's the thing that's happening. Yeah, my eyes are starting to water up a little bit. It's just something that we're dealing with here. Yeah. Yeah. You allure it to cats.

I think I may be a little bit. No, no, no, I'm good. I'm fine. I'm going to power through it, but I want you guys to know. I want you guys to know. I want you guys to know. I want you guys to know. I'm going to make your eyes water right now.

You just rub that off. Throat's like starting to close up a little bit. So it's just something that's happening, but I'm going to persevere, which I did not. So as the podcast goes on, Frankie's condition will deteriorate. I, um, yeah, no, it's just something that's happening. I did not persevere today. Are we going to get into a little bit of what we did today? We should.

So we're out here, like I said, we're here in San Francisco, and then we're taking a flight tonight to San Diego for Tori Pines. And our whole thing is clearly the U.S. Open is golf's toughest test. They want you to use every club in their bag. We call it carnage. That's not how they brand it, but everybody else brands it is. It's just the carnage-filled tournament. That's what you want to see. You want to see people are rooting for like 20 over to win at Wingfoot last year.

So we thought it would be fun to come out, test our games, put them on these two courses, and just play everything in the whole stroke play all four of us and see what those numbers are. So we played it from about 6,600 today, which is right around, I believe, how the women will play it for the U.S. Women's Open. And we had kind of a wide variety of scores out there, I would say. Who's tough? Trent? Yeah, I saw some carnage today. I saw a lot of carnage today.

Do you feel any? Yeah, I felt a lot of it. Lose a limb? I just played like shit, you know? And people will see it on the video. We're not going to say our scores, but I just played like garbage. And, you know, I would like to be positive a lot of the time, but there were stretches. during this round of golf where I just wanted to walk.

I wanted to just walk and walk away. You know? You know what I mean, Lurch? Yeah, I mean, I said something to you where I said if it goes into that bunker on one of these just Mount Everest type bunkers that's guarding one of these greens, you can go home. What happened? Oh. It didn't fly in the bunker and be, you know, oh, that's just in the bunker when you see it leave the club face. It was like, oh, no, that's going to be good.

It reached the crevice, the top of the trap, almost the rough. believe it bounced in. It did. And then it came back in this bunker and it's the biggest bunker on the golf. That's a good indication of my day. That was one of the better shots I hit. It was. The result was.

Actually, you hit a sick shot. I hit a good bunker shot. Frank and I've been playing a lot in New York and Long Island, Westchester area. And I've been pretty good out of the bunkers. And that was probably what was most disappointing about today was I have been playing more golf lately. So I was hoping my game would round into shape a little bit more. But this was such a hard golf course that it just absolutely kicked me in the teeth.

The biggest difference is we're playing New York. York, Westchester, whatever type of golf races playing Arizona golf, you come here. It's the hillyest, I mean, you don't have a flat lie. So when you're on the range, you're like, oh, man, like, I'd ever felt better on this range than I did today. Like, I legitimately thought I was going to go, I don't know, three under today. I just felt I couldn't miss a ball. And then all of a sudden you get on, like, the first tee, and you look out there, and it's maybe the most just, like, undulated golf course you've ever seen your entire life.

You don't get a flat lie all day. And that's just different, man. It's harder to hit greens when you have balls above your feet below your feet. It's not really like, it's just not natural. It is true in the fact that the last time we all hit a flat golf shot was on the range. So all of a sudden you have this hundred and six. Your feet are never flat for the whole round. You're just falling into the lake.

The greens are small. Tying. A, they're harder to hit because they're small. But B, you're also, it makes it harder to swing confidently because you know you're like, I have to hit this perfectly. And your mind's fucked because it's a left to right slope or right to left slope. And it just hits you with that all day long. And that's when you hit good shots you're actually in the fair.

Right. It shows how good these pros are, the women and the men, that they're able to just, like, continue their day, regardless of where their ball is, right? Like, for me, I hit a ball right down the middle. My second shot is, like, a 166 shot with a little bit of wind, but it's way above my feet. I'm like, there's no chance I put this on the green.

They're just like, ho-hum, no problem. We're just going, we're going pin-seeking. What was the hole where you hit a dynamite drive in the middle of the fairway, and they rolled all the way off into the rough? Like, you could not have hit a better drive, and we're like, oh, that's perfect. That had to be like seven or six or something, five. Yeah, I want to say that was...

That uphill dog leg left? Is that four? That's where I made it. I actually did make a three. That's the one where I made a bomb putt. You had an awesome shot. That's four. And I will say, you know, when people do watch the video and we're talking about now,

like, yes, the course, it's pure, it's in grid shape, but it's not quite yet in U.S. open shape. Like, the rough will be longer. The greens will be firmer and a little bit faster. It's still really hard for us, so that doesn't really matter a ton. And there was some good golf play today. I mean Lurch, you played fantastic golf. Riggs maybe had the best save of a round

I've ever seen. I think I had one of the more stunning numbers. When you set your final number, I legitimately thought. I still think you're cheating. You hit the ball. At one point I said, like, yeah, it was kind of a stupid golf joke, but I was like, here is this map finder just like, you know, people say it's like a fairway finder with a drive or whatever.

I mean, you couldn't keep that thing within 100 yards of the fairway? We couldn't have had more opposite games today, me and you. Right. Like, I felt like I didn't think you hit that bad. No, I hit it fine. It's just around the greens. It was just adding up quickly, quickly adding up. Puts for par turned into Puts for Triple.

It was just like, what is happening? What's happening? Everyone stopped. Everybody stop and just wait. I had one of those days. It just felt like if I could just get within 20 yards of the green, I was like, I'm fine. But it actually was hard to do that a lot. Like other times I was like, I just can't.

And, I mean, some of the times I was saying were going 50 yards. Like they're hitting trees and just coming straight down? I'd say you had about what, like six or seven like chip up and downs to save like par and boge? A bunch. Maybe more? From bunkers, I had a bunch. And it just was... Your chipping is phenomenal.

It's nuts. I think that goes to show you about fresh wedges. Those tailor-made wedges. I mean, like, it was just bounce, stop, two feet. Serious spin on it. It was crazy the action. Me and Trent were talking on the way up. He's like, dude, I've never seen, like, the spin on those.

And yeah, they are the brand new, the tailor-made high toes that I got. And I love them. They're awesome. I was telling us, like, the thing is, I've been playing a lot, obviously, living in fucking air. Oh, no way. I've been playing a lot. And when you play a lot, like you get confident in attacking them aggressively, those chips, because you have to. Like, if you don't come through them aggressively, then you can't get that spin because you have to have that speed to have them.

And I'm just in a place where I just feel good. So I'm like, and I was watching a YouTube video probably like a month ago where it was, I can't remember which coach it was. But he's talking about how just pick a, pick a landing spot on the green. That's all you're trying to do. Pick a landing spot. Like pick your trajectory in terms of, is this coming in a little lower, a little higher? and then just pick your landing spot and that's the only thing you focus on.

Don't look at the pin. Don't after you pick your landing spot. Think about how it's going to break in the night. It's like just literally pick the spot. You want that ball to land and try to hit it as close to that spot as you can. And that's changed my chipping a ton. Because everything happens after that

is like you just tried to hit your spot. But yeah, today was the most preposterous round. I would say I'm bad. I still can't believe your score. It's like it feels wrong. They're just staring at the scorecard right now. Well, it just feels wrong. If you look at the middle, there's a bunch of fours and three.

So, I mean, that's how he did it. No, I know, but I mean, it's just like off the tee. It was like, that's a triple from where that ball went. One thing about here at Olympic Club, you can't really lose a ball. Unless you go like OB onto the road. And to your point of what you read pre-round, if you're below the pin or like putting up away from the lake, the greens roll at like a five. And then if you put to the lake, they roll at 15. It's the biggest difference of like local knowledge that I've ever seen with GreenSpeed to me.

because we could never figure it. I just couldn't figure out the speeds today. I don't actually think I put particularly bad. But man, there were some times where you just need to get the ball close to the hole. Yeah. And you just couldn't. I mean, I left that. Both of us.

I don't know how you scored, you scored with the way some of your long putts were, right? So they never really like penalty because I made a lot of comeback. Yeah, true. But there was one that I had a 40-foot putt and I still had 25 feet left. And it's only like I blew it 25 feet past. I still had 25 feet to go. Yeah. And then a couple holes later you were just made a debacle of it.

And I was like, is he just going to completely collapse and blow it? I'm glad that you didn't. I'm glad he kept it on the track. The Furicle got me. So visuals, it's probably one of my favorite courses I've ever played. Like just looking out and playing it. I agree. And I think a big part of that for me is it looks so much like Northern California.

Yeah. Like the Bay Area. And obviously we're right in the heart of it. But it's cool. You know, there's some courses where whether they do it, in terms of aesthetics or if they move a lot of dirt where it doesn't, like it's cool and it looks great

and it's in good shape, but it doesn't necessarily reveal or feel like you're in that spot as much. This is very clearly, you could take any picture from anywhere on this place and people are like, you've got to be in the Bay Area there. You have to be. Just looking at the Golden Gate Bridge right now. I mean, it's beautiful. It really is.

This is a stunning view that we have out on this patio right now. San Francisco looks like a high class like third world country. Does that make any sense? I don't think that came off. I think you were trying to go for a compliment there, and I think you missed it by miles. The way that it's like, you see these things, you see some of these, you see some of these countries where it's like house, I mean like house on top of house on these hills and these rolling hills. It's like you can't believe that people live like that.

And I look out there and I see the same exact thing. Like how are there people living amongst all those buildings? They're literally stacked on top of each other, but they're like million dollar homes is my point. But I know what you mean that a lot of those places that would only be like, that would be clearly. distinguishable really awesome homes that are like really expensive homes and it feels like that's a lot of like little homes together it's crazy i've never seen i've just never had this view of it where it's like you actually see all the houses going up the hill like that it's just it's kind of crazy to look at uh all right guys we're gonna have to get serious for a second and this is one of the reads actually

that that that we um are glad that we're able to do because it means a lot the last year's been hard on a ton of people we all know that uh that's why we're doing something new and partnering with our sponsor our new sponsor our new sponsor Better Help Online Therapy. At Barstville, we truly love and appreciate our listeners, obviously. You guys mean the world to us. Thank you. Without you, none of us would be able to do this.

None of us would be able to sit here and look out at San Francisco and, you know, make interesting observations about what we're seeing. So once in a while, we try to bring you something genuinely good. Maybe it's for you. Maybe it's not. A lot of us take care of our bodies with this tough of years. This has been many of us don't necessarily think about taking care of our minds. There's a misunderstanding about what therapy is.

it can be whatever you want it to be. It doesn't have to be sitting around talking about your feelings. We all know that just reflecting, talking with somebody, bouncing things off of people, having somebody be able to respond to them is incredibly important. It helps. Obviously, that's kind of what we do all the time with each other. A lot of people battle with whether it's their temper, their stress,

especially when you're a golf course, or they have depression, anxiety, PTSD. The list goes on. A lot of people are struggling if this is you. You can use therapy to get some tools that make life much, easier. Better help is customize online therapy that offers video, phone, and even live chat sessions with your therapist so you don't have to see anyone on camera if you don't want to. It's much more affordable than in person therapy and you can start communicating with

your therapist in under 48 hours. Join the millions of people who are seeing what therapy is really about. It's always a good time to invest in yourself because you are your greatest asset.

People helping people. It's the best. Nice thing. You know Jimmy Valvano? Jimmy V? Oh, okay, yeah. I don't know why I said, no. I just looked at me dead in the face and just going out.

Well, the way, every time you say something, I just want to just disagree. We wrote the car today, and I thought we had a good time. Yeah. You guys are good on the course. Like as much as you guys bicker on the show, which is a lot. Yeah. On the course, you guys seem to like, because I think you guys help each other. Yeah.

There's definitely some times where we both want to punch each other in the face for sure. Yeah, but everybody was going to get there. No, didn't it yet. They were solid. Anyways, Jimmy Vee in his speech says there's three things that you should do every day. If you do those three things, you'll have a full day. Do you know what they are? Yeah.

Laugh. Haugh. Yeah. Smile. Yeah. That's smile and laugh Yeah, is one. Was Chris cry one of them?

Cry is one. Yes, but it's more than that. Have your emotions move to tears, happy or sad. Okay. So. Last time he has made funny for crying, but I mean, and then the last one.

We gotta do this every day? The last one. If you do these three things every day, it's a full day and I agree with them whole heart. Okay, what's the third one? Hug somebody? No, but not too. I wouldn't say wrong.

Okay. Tell somebody you love them? No, the last one is spend some moment in thought. So just think about stuff. Think about things holistically. If you do those three things every day. So I was just thinking when you're talking betterment help. Crying, you know, happy or sad is good, I think.

Getting things off the chest, I'm a big proponent in that. Of course. Everybody's got emotion, literally. BetterHelp's great. Betterhelp.com slash 4. You get timber set off your first month. But it's very important to talk to people. I didn't have a 7 iron today or 52 degree.

Some house. Do you have any idea about it? I can't believe we got a full day, but I wouldn't have had a full bag, you know what I'm saying? I cannot believe we got this far into the show without bringing that up. Well, because we've been talking about it all day. Yeah, it was a problem. You know, we're at the hotel here in San Francisco, and Lurch noticed that I had a bunch of woods in my bag. He's just like, you're filled with woods and hybrids and drivers.

I'm like, yeah, let me check. I'm like, you know what? I actually think I got to take one out because I have a hybrid. I also have a five wood. I got a three wood. I got all these wedges. I'm looking at my bag. And I think Riggs is like, you have no clubs.

Like, what's happening? I was like, what? So I start counting them. No 7 iron and no 52 degree. And now we're on our way. Now we're rushing out of the hotel to come to Olympic Club. That was a tough feeling because I don't know where these things went. We just played Quaker and we sound like fucking y'n-y-sucking asshole because we just played Quaker Ridge,

which is the top 100 golf course. And we played Olympic Club, which is like a top 10 golf course in the world. And I'm losing golf clubs all over the place. So I don't know how that happened. Somewhere, somehow, I lost a 7 and a 52. Two clubs that don't go with each. other. You were genuinely upset on the car right over. I was because I have no idea where they went and like go in to play a bucketless course. And a seven iron for me is like that is my home space. That's

something where I feel really completely at like ease. But what did we find out? We found out that you only use it like two or three times. Right. I don't want to spoil the video, but like one of the times without my 52 was a disaster. I mean, I was 120 yards out and I had to use a 58, which I 100, 120, 52 is so smooth and so nice. So that brings up the swing speed. So that brings up the swing speed. And I just almost murdered a cameraman over the green. I just had to re-fucking, re-up from where I was,

120 yards out, and it just became a triple bogey. Shout out Casey, that camera guy. I mean, he was, he's got nine lines. He should have been dead. That cameraman, Casey, is either. He's either got a lot of feel or no feel. He's either the most like, like a loof, like, no, doesn't care. Out to lunch person of all time, of all time, or he's just the most courageous person of all the time.

He was, like, standing, staring at balls coming at his head, and he didn't move an inch. Well, and that's probably the right way to be because he's the guy standing on the green watching the balls come in. It has to be that way. Right, you know what I mean? Like, if we had a guy who was a little scared cat, and then we wouldn't have any of those shots. If he's running away, like, trying to hold the camera. I think he was out to a nice big lunch. Just chips and pickles.

The wedge of Frankie hit went right over. his head and there was like trees and brush maybe 10, 15 feet behind it. It didn't disappear into the brush. It disappeared over the back of him somehow and then was gone forever. Dude, it came in like a missile. It was flying. It was like a drone

that locks in on its target and it just follows him. And I was screaming. Like legitimately. It was almost in Happy Gilmore. She was like, happy! Yeah. Look out. You ever see that part? Yeah. Oh yeah. Favorite parts in any movie. Where she actually like, it's just the worst acting ever. Sorry.

Look outa. Look out. You judge acting. Can we put the audio in if he's saying, look outa? It's outrageous. It's a great clip. Happy, look outa. Why can't I think of that part?

Oh, it's when he's about to hit her. He's about to get hit with the car. The Volkswagen drives out. Oh, it's... She was happy. Look out. Oh, yeah. The extended is one of the most insane.

You don't think they do that for, like, comedic effect? No, I think it's so preposterous that they do it that way. Maybe because it's happy Gilmore, but I just think it's unwatchable that part. When, like, Red Lobster guy hit some of the Volkswagen. Yeah, right there. Look out. We'll see if Jake puts it in. Yeah, we'll see.

This is a test if you're listening or not, Jake. Okay, this video, again, a couple weeks, it's going to be, I think it's early June. So U.S. Women's Open Week, this puppy will be out. It's very good. This place is spectacular. It's going to be incredibly fun to watch them play this course and see, you know, I mean, after us being out here, I think it's going to be really difficult for anybody to post low numbers to finish under par. Yet they're so unbelievably good that they probably will.

It's June 6th or June 3rd through the 6th, though. I imagine we'll have it out what, the second. So it'll probably be the Wednesday, maybe the Tuesday, Monday of that week. And then we're going to film a whole other one tomorrow out at Torrey Pines and have that out a few weeks after. So, okay, big news, Tiger Woods first photograph since his accident was released. It came out late last week, which he posted himself. He wrote, my course, is coming along faster than I am with a smiley face emoji.

But it's nice to have a faithful rehab partner, man's best friend, and just a picture of him and his dog. A lot of takeaways from this for me. Number one, his left leg was completely fine. We only have to rehab one leg, which is amazing. His left leg's better than it's ever been. I mean, it looks amazing. He looks incredible.

His arms look incredibly jacked. He looks like he can bench like 700 pounds. He looks like Captain American. Is that because, like, he's not working out right now? He's just, like, bulking and just eating. My guess is, if I can try to get inside the brain of Tiger Woods for one second, It's that he can't do cardio right now. He really, I mean, he can't do any of that stuff.

He can't run. He can't bike. But the way to keep himself busy, do we know Tiger Woods? Do you think he can work out right now? Yeah, because he can lay down on a bench and like, gosh, dude. He just doesn't have the mentality of like, I'm going to watch like 30 series of net. That's exactly right. My question is, I'm not a big body guy.

Like, I just have a frame. Okay. So I didn't know that, like, if, I mean, he was like shredded recently, right? Like, we were like, holy fuck. Tiger Woods is like as, as fit as he's ever been. Now, if you take that off and you're laying into bed or your arms starting. get a little beefy or like that. But he can sit on a bench and just do curls and do a bench press.

And I love that. That has to be the way, like I said, he can't do cardio, he can't do anything that thing. The only activity he can do is do arms and it looks like that's what he's been doing. He looks fantastic. What course was he talking about? In his backyard, he's like redoing all that shit that goes in his backyard where he had like Fort Evan Greens and grass types of that. Apparently he's redoing it, restoring it, whatever the hell he's doing.

And so that was another one of my big takeaways. Like the fact that he's going through all this work to restore that course, I need a guy who's retiring. Also for Charlie, too, though. Sure. Yeah, absolutely. That's a big factor for it. I thought him smiling and a big old smile on his face.

He looked great. He looked so much better than I thought he was going on. It seems crazy to say about a guy on crutches, but he looked awesome. He looked hot. He looks so good. And that was the main takeaway. Like, I know we all tweeted the picture. And I would say a majority of my responses where, like, he looks 100,000 times.

better than we thought he was going to look. Yeah. Because he could have looked like anything. Well, when we talked last, I was like worried, I mean, he could have lashes on his face. Like, it could just be a mess. And I think he looked as good as he would potentially look, if not better. I also thought that there would be, whenever you see massive leg injuries, you'll see, like, the contraption that has, like, the wires through the kneecap, too.

Like, it goes all the way up and it bends when you walk, right? We didn't see any of that. It was basically shin down, down to his ankle. He had his toes out in the cast. Now, do you think that's a multiple take picture? Yeah. I mean, I get everybody snaps four or five whenever they're taking any picture. But do you think that was like, eh, it didn't look that, come back here, try that from me?

I don't know, man. It was kind of blurry. Like, like, I mean, it was just, I think that's just like a, let me, oh, that's a great shot. The dog's right next to you. And he's just smiling. And there's been other pictures that have come out of him on the cart and things like that and moving around. Yeah, I was just saying the next day one came out. He's clearly able to be out and about his golf golf cart at Charlie's playing.

And he was in a golf cart with his girlfriend driving around in the past. He was given the stink guy. Whoever took that phone? Oh, no. He was given the stink guy. Tiger Woods is at a golf course again. Already. Watching golf, being around golf, on a cart.

His ass is on the seat of a golf cart. That's crazy to me. I did. Run behind, cut that leather out and keep it. I understand he's just there watching, but I thought Tiger Woods being on a golf course was years away. Look. Yes, he had a bad accident, dude.

His leg snapped in half. Guess what? They repaired that shit. He's rehabbing it. The rest of his body, again, as we're talking about, it's fucking fine. His left leg's fine. His arms looked more jacked than anybody's arms ever seen in my life.

He still got that brain. Still got that brain up here and knows how to play golf. He's smiling. He has backwards hat on. He's going to learn how to plague off on one leg. Like that's the kind of guy he is. Like he's going to learn how to like utilize his left leg more than his right. And he's going to start rehabbing when they tell him like he can't.

He's like, no, I can because I'm going to do this. And then he's going to have like a stronger left leg than a right. He's going to tell us about how that helps him with a draw. And like he's going to actually, like that helps him on the second hole at Augusta National. Like there's going to be like, always a store with Tiger and I'm just so confident now after seeing that stuff. Is there any news yet? Like does he have just a personal assistant that can drive him everywhere that can like open doors for him?

He shouldn't have to do any extracurriculars. Like he should be protected in every area that he can't because he's clearly got a naughty side. Like he likes to be a bad boy and he could use some support. Here's the issue is I think he's he likes to do shit himself. Right. I think you can't have to. You can't tell him like you have to be. easy for us to sit here and say like, why do you drive?

Right. Why do you not? Like, all these people have gotten into shit. Like, fucking Thurman Munson, rest his soul. The guy, like, was flying, like, everyone's like, why are you flying your own plane from your game to go see your family? Like, just go get a pilot or whatever. And like, the guy died in a car, in a plane, in a helicopter.

Is that about Doc Holiday? No, Thurman Munson. Oh, okay. He crashed a plane. He was a Yankee, he was a Yankee captain back in the 80s. Okay. I just didn't see that name coming. No, me either.

But I'm just picturing because I remember everyone. pitcher was that guy, Doc Holliday. Everyone's like, why would you do that? It's like, well, these guys are like human beings that just, like, want to go do stuff, right? Like, that dude, like, loved flying planes and he wanted to see his family. They didn't let Britney do anything. And now we're all, like, free Britney all the time. Right.

Like, they run, literally run every part of them. Tiger was never going to drive a car because he, like, wins a lot of golf tournaments. I don't, like, what does that even mean? Like, he's got all the money in the world so he can't drive. Like, one of the greatest things about having a lot of money is, like buying the nicest cars in the world. Was he on something that day? Oh, for sure. That's where we could use a step in.

I think there's a difference between saying he's probably going to drive, but like should he? And like, he's going to do it regardless, but like, I think it'd probably be smarter if he didn't anymore. But I understand that you're never going to stop him from driving. We're going to bring in, like, what he was on and all that stuff. For sure, should not be driving under the influence. I'm not saying because you have all the money in the world, you should drive like high or drugs. I need somebody like a check-in guy, like who's not. Sure.

That would be helpful. But I heard people giving takes like you should never have keys to a car. Like, why don't you just have a chauffeur? everywhere. That's just not real life. No. The richest people in the world fucking drive cars. It's nice to just jump in a car. 100% of them. He's like LeBron James driving around L.A. He drives like 100 miles an hour. He's got this top down.

People like LeBronie's like, yeah. And he just fucking goes. It's like, yeah, that's just what they do. They're fucking human beings. Right. Please focus, my friends, on this fact that Mother's Day is obviously coming up. I mean, whether she prefers, you know, a statement,

peace, everyday, subtle elegance. Blue Nile.com has fine jewelry for every single mom. Mark Mother's Day was something enduring this year. From textured gold, the multicolored gemstones, classic pearls. You can shop this season's stunning trends on Blue Nile.com. Don't let what happened to Mr. Burley happen. No. No.

$20,000. Yep. E earrings. No, it tried to go 1999. What? Oh, I don't think Lurch was here for that. My dad. So it was my mom's birthday.

It was my mom's birthday. And he was doing like a birthday, Mother's Day, just like, 8.000. April, May, he just likes to get her something nice. Tough year, the whole thing. He's like, I'm going to get these nice earrings. He goes to this place. It was supposed to be $1,99. And they said it was like, four carrots.

Everyone's like, you got, like, those are just fake. It's impossible. He's like, showing everyone. Look at these things. Four carrots is like unbelievable amount of character. So he gives it to her. They're falling off her ear. Everyone's like, oh, my God, these things are unbelievable.

Turns out that he actually spent 20 grand by accident, and they didn't tell him. Oh, are those returned? Now, my mom ripped them. didn't know, no one knew. The only reason they know that is because he went to go return them to resize them. They were falling off for ear because they were so fucking diamond-y and heavy that they said, oh, yeah, like you guys can pick something out, but make sure it's in like this casing over here because it's not, like, why are you picking out? You didn't see his credit card statement?

Well, he used, like, the restaurant one where, like, I guess it's like because they're spending so much on, like, inventory and stuff that, like, it just didn't get flag, which to me is insane. Because apparently American Express is supposed to flag anything over like 5,000. The fact you can just walk in and buy a $20,000 diamond to me is. insane. I want said a word. They literally just like scumbags at this place wherever they were. They were just like, yeah, we got this guy. My dad's there, didn't even realize. The lady said it was, it's

not 19, it's not 1,900. It's 19,000. I'm surprised he didn't pass out in that moment. He almost had a heart attack. He said I would die in that place. Right. If they wouldn't take it back from me. So then what happened? So they took it back? They made him sweat it out for like 20 minutes. They went into the back and talked and they came

out and like, all right, like we'll give you the money back. They didn't want to at first because like they couldn't They didn't have the actual tag on it, like what had happened since they left, whatever. So you got to go to Blue Nile.

pissed that somebody was taking a photo but that's fine i like him like out there out and about getting pissed off people taking picks photos it's great and uh all things considered i think that this makes it almost a lock that tiger woods is going to come back and win the masters tournament kind kind of feels like we're back to square one before 2019 where now we just get to climb this mountain with him again which i'm i mean we embraced it the first time around and we were obviously right he won the masters in 2019 and now we get to do that again i mean i don't mean to sound so excited about it but if he's is going to make a real, if he's going to make another go at it, we're going to be right there next to him. And the difference is this one's almost more exciting, if you will, Trent.

I mean, obviously, the negative stuff sucks. But now that we're here, we are where we are, it's time because we know it actually worked out and he did it. Right. Right. Right. Like, in 2018, I guess 2017, 2018, we didn't know. Like, we always thought we knew and we kept claiming, but he'd come back so many times and, like, gotten hurt and then gotten hurt and then gotten hurt and flown across the world to Dubai and gotten hurt. and then we were like, no, no, he's back. He's going to do it.

You guys don't get it. You guys are idiots. And he actually did it. He fucking won the Masters. And he won the Tour Championship of the Masters and the Zozo all within like a year of each other. And then went to the President's Cup. It was the best player at the President's Cup by far. So it's like he clearly can return and be the best.

And we knew that now. And we knew that then. Now we really know it because he did it. And he looked awesome in a picture. And that's all it takes for us. Tiger Woods looks great in a picture. It's over, baby. that guy's just back.

It's all you need, but he's got an uphill battle, man. I mean, it's sad for me because when we saw him at the President's Cup in Australia, I was like, oh, my God. He's like the happiest he's ever been. He's going to win every golf tournament he's ever played in. And then it's been kind of a slow demise until the accident, which was obviously pretty quick. But now to think about where he's been, downfall, winning, and now he's back down again, if he comes back he is mentally the strongest person ever created and he is that like we know that

but that would truly be I don't know that would be incredible to me if he comes back from this one as well yeah like you're right you're looking up the hill again at it and you're like dude we were up there I know just right right just fucking give up man the guy's like a billionaire right you rest on your laurels like for everybody else every other average loser like everybody's sitting at this table. It is the easiest one to be like, you know what? I'm going to get somewhat healthy.

I'm just going to play golf a little bit. Hang with Charlie. I got tons of money. I'm going to relax. I'm going to fish. I'm going to go on privacy. Get into business. Do whatever you want.

Just anything you want. Every day you can do whatever you want in the whole world. And no, now I'm going to practice for eight to ten hours a day on the golf course, workout, lift, train. Be an older individual than like, everybody on tour and still beat them. It would be remarkable. And it's honestly, interesting. We, you know, they had a fun little program today where Michelle We

West, who won the U.S. Women's Open in 2014, was talking, and Keira asked her about kind of, you know, what does it, like, what does it take to be really good again, and how do you feel about your current play coming back? And hasn't been that. And she said, she's like, well, I know what it takes to win a golf tournament. And it's like, it takes 100% of your effort in everything that you do. And, like, you practice all day long, your nutrition, everything. She's like, now, you know, She's a relatively new mom. She's married. She's got other things in the line.

She's like, now I do like two or three hours a day. And she's like, and that's a lot. Like it's very stressful. You're grinding and you're trying to do it. But like two to three hours a day versus making it your entire life. Just like, she's like, it just, it's really hard to get it done. And now we're talking about this guy, Tiger Woods, like we said, is looking up in the mountain yet again, who's already won 15 majors, won 82 times, made a billion dollars.

He's got two awesome kids that he loves, that he clearly is very into golf with Charlie. And I know Sam and him have a great connection and what she's into. So it's like, dude, you could just chill. And it's not that crazy to think that that could happen. Like Tiger, in the next few months, that could happen. That's why we're very scared about the blue background, you know, press releases. Yeah, yeah. But I think in what we've all, I think, kind of agreed on to some different level on this show is that, like, if that motherfucker came back all those other times, he's going to go back this time.

The age is a concern. Has to be a big concern. But again, for him. wasn't not a concern when he was 43. But it's just like, just every year that you add on to that, it's just, it's a little different. Like the times before 2019, and I agree. I know what you're saying, but like, now we're at 45 and we're going to be at 46 and then

we're going to be at 47. Like, now we're really up there. But I guess Trent's point, though, does come back and, like, is valid in the fact of, like, why are his arms big? Because he's lifting because that's the only thing that he has the availability to do right now. Like, in his mind, when I think about him, I've got a thousand options of what I could do with the day with all that money. His option is like, no, I just play golf. Like, now that I'm, I'm hurt, I'm injured. Like, no, the only thing that I know in my brain is to get myself better,

to get myself healthy, and to play golf and play at an elite level. So maybe that fundamentally feels like his only option, which maybe might not be true because of some of the statements he said, but I also wonder what it would be like mentally to know that you're capable of being the best at something that's so cool and that you love so much that like it might be genuinely really hard or impossible for him not to want to do it because he knows he could be so good at it. Well, the best, like you watch Michael Jordan

and all the teammates that he's ever had, they say it's like amazing that the best player who has the most stuff works the hardest and like wants it the most. And he's practicing the most. the guys who have less skill who are like just trying to make the roster are doing less than the guy who is born with the better skill. So that's the Tiger Woods effect, right? Where it's like he can literally just stop. He doesn't have to practice as much as the next guy.

But the reason why he's the best is because he practices more than the next guy. Right. Speaking of the egg. Speaking of practice, there's a dude just out here just rolling putts at Olympic Club. Like what a fucking life this guy has. Just three balls sitting there. Just no care in the fucking world. He's got the entire bay of San Francisco behind him.

Got a little hoodie on. Now, the thing I want to ask you guys is when you guys are practicing putting, like, are you working on anything right there? Like, what I do is I just try and get the ball in the hole. Like when I'm just on a putting green, a practice putting green. I just try and roll the ball in the hole. I'm not actively trying to fix anything. Now that I think about it.

I would say I do some experimentation a little bit. Really? Yeah. And you're consciously thinking about that as you're rolling the ball? Yeah, sometimes. Not every put, but I think that I try to, you try. My biggest thing with putting is process. I know that's stupid or like routine, if you will.

I agree with that. That's why I'm shocked to hear you say that I experiment every time I get on a putting green. It's like you're all about the same process every time and I think you putt really well. So to tell me that you go out there and now you're just experimenting the whole time. Yeah, because I think sometimes if you change something a little bit and see how it works out. Sometimes it's horrible. But I don't even mean just the process. I mean change.

Sometimes feel like you're taking the putter back way outside and just kind of see what happens for five puts. You know? Look at it on video if you can or something like that. Just to like see. And if it's like shittier or just like Doesn't look better or whatever Then it just didn't fucking work You know what I mean when I say I'm just trying to get the ball in the hole

There's absolutely no practice in that Yeah, no It's just you're just doing the thing that you would do on the course Which is incorrect And you're not succeeding at it Maybe you get a couple in there and then you just walk off Like what what this guy is like kind of grinding That's the only reason to bring it up

Living too living I mean suns setting here in San Francisco Get him a beer get him up in Walmart Get him an Owens mixer He's got a nice little spider on them to the putter. I also appreciate he's just in sneakers and he also has three different golf balls because two are yellow and one's white.

I also just like, he's just hanging. I looked at a guy over here and he just played this par three here at Olympic club. He was carrying his bag. Older guy probably belongs here. Just what a fucking life out here, man. What are we doing in New York? You're in Arizona now, so you kind of figured it out. But like, it's insane that there's better places in New York City. A lot of people that say to me in Arizona because now

everyone's like, oh, you've been here? You've been here? says, oh, you moved here? You moved here? I'm like, oh, yeah, November. Like, oh, when are you going back? I'm like, maybe never what are those other guys doing I think they're just in New York right like when you and I when we've been playing it's just it's a bear to get where we need to be

yeah oh leaving the city for a round of golf to come back it's a 10 hour day it's a full it's a west just I have to go over a bridge and it's just like not a nice bridge I'm looking at a nice bridge right now it's like two hours you get out of the course play it's a drag you get back another two hour I mean it's yeah it's an eight hour it's a nightmare eight minutes to Greyhawk for my

You know what else is a nightmare? Go on. Louis Oostazen's 18th hole during the matchplay event. Oh, I'm sorry, the playoff hole. I don't think I've ever seen anyone hit a worst drive, and you hit some bad drives today. Terrible drive. Some of the worst drives ever seen. Louis O'Saysen, I think that has to be his worst professional swing he's ever had.

He's never had a chance. With everything on the line, I don't know that it gets worse than that. He barely hit the ball. Like, it just completely flailed way out into the fucking water. And it was just one of those moments where you're watching this fucking, You know, they had chances coming down. I mean, I know it's hard to, it's hard to even pay attention with this guy. He just asked how we did out here.

Oh, my God. That guy's living in a lot. I didn't really just shodding on this podcast because I'm watching him. Can we get a guest appearance from this guy? Yeah, we got. He's just walking away. We might have to interview this guy about the dream life that he's living in now. What is he doing?

Anyway, Louis Euse and just couldn't get it done, which is coming up. We were just talking about you because I'm like, what a life this guy has. Out there rolling putts just. that Olympic club. It's not a bad Monday. Look at this guy. How are you doing, man? What's up, bro?

Thank you, man. Were you working on anything out there? You're just trying to get the ball in the hole. Speaking of that mic. Speaking of that mic. Yeah, I switched to this broken old putter again, so I don't know. We're just trying to figure shit out. What's your name?

I'm Mike Finn. Mike, I'm a member out here? I am, yeah. How awesome is that? See, the reason we're talking about you in the show is because Frankie can't help, but he's looking out. He's got the Gold Gate Bridge. You got the sun setting.

And then he's got you just putting around. on this green overlooking all these cypress trees at olympic club it's insane we're lucky we're lucky uh mondays is closed out here for members so got you that's why it's uh a little more peaceful probably when you are i'm there is there much of a process there you just you're just fucking around right now putton no no it's messing around you know whenever you got like extra half hour 45 minutes you know just go roll the rock a little bit what was this like right before you go home for dinner with the family and everything uh we're actually uh we've there's a monday night lights tennis thing going on. So it's kind of like a social.

There we go. Amazing. Like 12, 15 people down there. Go play some tennis. Awesome. These guys were just saying, like, how about we just live in New York and this guy's out here doing this right now? You guys come on out here, man. You get sunshine all the time. You don't have to deal with the snow. This is amazing.

I saw the bunkers on three. How did you like the bunkers out here? I played pretty well out of the bunkers. Yeah, who did I? Yeah. So I was happy with it. Did you guys play from like the, like they have like T's set up for the USGA? Yeah. 65 or 66 or something. I think it's right around what they're going to play for the women's open.

65, 6. Yeah, yeah, any good scores? A couple. Yeah. So we're not. We're going to save it for the video. But we had a couple. We had one really good one.

And we had one. If you had the better ones and who had the worst ones, would you get? Scores? Yeah. I mean, he's looking right at me right now. Yeah, just fired. I don't know.

I think it's a competition. I mean, you've got to, you guys are going to be pretty close to each other now, right? Orch and Rigs. Yeah. And Frankie's is playing great. He was hot, so. playing well,

month. Yeah. I had a tough day. You're starting to get it? You're starting to get it? Well, today would not indicate that, but I think I am starting to get it. You got it correct. You got to correct.

Yeah, you're going to give them the card. Don't say the numbers, but you can just kind of react. We can figure it out. We were just literally playing everything in the hole. No gimmies, and we just did. Ball and see what happens. Nothing. But you had to do everything.

You can make an 11. Like, it was ball and hole. Had to finish. Tournament rules. Actually, surprised there weren't any larger numbers. Somebody just in the worst spot and making like a 12 or something. Pure a call started to eat up with me a little bit. After I hit multiple trees, I was like, is it going to just go away from me right here?

You're trying. See, that's what he's talking about. He goes up. I didn't go left, though. I went right, and then I thought I had angles in, angles in. Couldn't have hit a better drive on that hole, and I ended up with a fucking seven. Yeah. It goes forever that hole.

You're almost better off playing down the ocean course, down the ninth hole in the ocean. I should have. I asked you that. Is that internal OB during the tournament? During the 12 open, they had tents and, like, merchandise. So I think, I don't think it was technically out of bounds. You were just screwed. So for anybody, all the listeners out there,

the 16th hole is like a 60-yard par 5 from the back team. It's probably 580 from where we played it or something. And it's a dog leg left. I don't even call it a dog-by-left. It's like a half-moon that just keeps going and going and going left. And it's where Jim Furik famously, what do you have a tie-for-lead, or one-shot lead in 2012? I think he was, I was actually right there on a knee watching it from about 15 yards behind.

We had snuck under the ropes after volunteering on the driving range in the morning. And did he change to three wood or something and then just duck hooked it? So they put the tease up about where the whites were. So he had been complaining all week here. That's right. I'm good. I'm good now. He had been complaining, I guess, that they didn't put the teas there all week and that it was kind of a sneak attack for them because you have to bend it so hard off that.

Yep. But, I mean, these guys are pros. Come on. You got a four iron off the tee. You do something. You do have to turn it. You got to. So he tried to turn it and he just violently hooked one.

Yeah, a little over the top move and it was just duck hooked. So you guys, everybody calls it the fear of cold here. Oh, yeah, yeah. You go look over the bushes and you're like, oh, this is about where he is. So let's give Olympic a little plug here. Tell us about this parth three course. Supposed to be unreal. The cliffs?

Yeah. Have you guys not played there yet? Oh, dude. You got to go out there before if you have a chance before. How long are you guys here till? We're leaving about a three hours a half. We're looking at our flight. Oh.

I'm looking at Uber's right now as we speak. I would just, you are actually, not lying. We've got to make a flight. Yeah, we got to catch a flight. Like 7.45 or something. All right, all right. I don't want to keep you guys. But if you have a chance, dude, go over there.

They're actually potentially going to be getting rid of that pretty soon. Gilhance is, you know, we're in talks with him right now to redo the entire ocean course, redo that. So it might not be around for a whole lot longer. I don't know if I'm breaking news here. Well, yeah, but if they redo it, they're not going to, like, get rid of it, are they? So they're talking about maybe putting some more hole, like six holes over there as well, and then doing another kind of like the cradle type part three course down on like six and seven. Because the cliff real estate is like the best, isn't it?

Oh, it's ridiculous. I mean, it's like Pebble Beach. You go to over there, the views. You can see, you know, the whole beach all the way down to Pacifica. You know, you got Mount Tam out there. It's especially this time right now. I mean, if you have the course to yourself, if you can go just before you leave, well, there's not. You just don't.

Yeah. I mean, we're literally in the air in two hours. Just go grab, like, a seven iron or a pitching wedge, and there's the third hole right there when you walk through the tunnel, and you can just go hit a couple shots. You're going to make me want to punch myself in the face. Just because we didn't put my seven iron. I lost my seven iron.

So all the clubs for you to say, it's fucking unbelievable. Now get the fuck out of here. I'm out of here, dude. Next time we're in town, we're coming out. Yeah, dude. For sure. All right. I appreciate it, man.

Thank you. All right, bro. Thank you for jumping off. We appreciate it. Keep enjoying life. You're just ripping it up right now. Not today I didn't, but I appreciate the fucking seven iron. That guy's the best.

Thank you, Mike. He makes me dead in the eye and he goes, why don't you grab a seven iron and go over to that fucking course. Guys, I never, you haven't had seven iron all day. The wingman is the world's first golf speaker featuring audible GPS distance and the premium sound quality so you can enjoy your favorite tunes on the course. So we were using these all day today.

The wingman, I got mine maybe, what, in the fall of last year. I think we got these for the first time. The wingman especially, because I, out in Arizona now, it's like cart golf all over the place, everybody's rips around in a cart all the time. This thing's amazing. The wingman, you got a little button you can put in your pocket, you hook it up to the app. You can see, I was showing train.

You can see the visuals of the entire hole on the app. You can point anywhere on it where you'd like, and it'll give you the exact distances to the front, the back, and the center of the green. And then whenever you hit that button, the guy, the Siri or whoever, just says it out loud. 172. To the middle. That was a good impression.

To the front. That's exactly what it sounds. And it's awesome. And then also, you know, everybody's listening to music on the course these days. We actually can't in our videos. People don't understand that because it's illegal to be playing other people's music and all that. So we would listen to music if we weren't filming. And then you can just hit that thing.

And during the song, you know, it'll go down a little bit, give you the yardage. It's awesome. It sticks right in your cart. The little bar, the little kind of, yeah, the little bar in your cart where it's just magnet right there, boom. Magnetize. 12 pounds of pole force keeps the wingman speaker on the cart bar. even over some pretty rough bumps. Which is true.

I got through that sentence. Lastly, the wingman has enough battery to last. 36 holes are up to 10 hours on a single charge. Go to bushnellgolf.com slash four. Do yourself a favor. Go to bushnell.com slash four and order your wingman golf speaker today. Thing really is phenomenal. It's phenomenal.

And it's loud. It's got good sound. You're an aggressive cart driver for sure. You don't think so? Oh, we almost got a... We almost got a whatever. I'm like. Whatever.

It is a little bit that way. And actually, you agreed with me on a whatever today when your buddy said like about the hot dogs or the hamburgers. Speaking of hot dogs, let's talk about the fucking. Yeah, the burger dog. The 10th hole, after the 10th hole, in between the 10th and 11th at Olympic Club, Lake Course. All right, lakeside. Do they have that on the other side, too, the burger dogs? That's a good question.

I don't know. You have to ask Mike. All I know is, is that it is a hot, I'm sorry, it's a hot dog bun. with a patty on the inside that looks like a hot dog, but it's a fucking, it's a hamburger. Burger meat. It's burger meat. They throw cheese on there.

They throw relish. They throw ketchup. They throw pickles. And it's just a burger that looks like a hot dog. So then you text your buddy. So my buddy, who's a huge hot dog guy. He actually tried to... You agreed with whatever.

He tried to knock down the world record of hot dogs on Fourth of July party, and he only got down four because he was on camera. He said he got nervous. I remember those. It was one of the most embarrassing things that I've ever. ever been a part of. I went live for it. We had 30 hot dogs in front of him, and he ate four of them. We were like screaming at him.

Go, eat them. He probably had 3,000 people watching. It was insane. Yeah, it was nuts. I texted him, and he goes, oh, like, don't fix something that ain't broke. You know? If it ain't broke, don't fix it. He's like, it's the same thing with, like, when you get dipping dots or all this other ice cream. Like, vanilla ice cream's king. I'm like, well, like that. And then you said, I said, whatever, like, whatever. We need some innovation in the world. That's innovation.

Right. That's a guy who doesn't like innovation. These burgers And I understand I love hot dogs too But the burger dogs These burger dogs have been arrested 1950 Right

And you can just have Multiple sandwiches Like you can have a rosebee sandwich Correct And what I would say That's all it is Is if you're gonna say If someone's a real hot dog

Purist Fine you can argue That's not technically In the hot dog This was not a hot dog Fine That's not Fool anyone

This is a cheeseburger Totally But I'm just saying In terms of like The best Halfway house Item Piece of food

I've ever had I think that was it Lurchch How many did you eat? Two No. And then I went back for a third. Okay.

But I did have to. You had three massive pieces of meat cheeseburgers at the turn. Right. And then what do I do on that 11 T-box? I absolutely striped it. I was noted on one. Boy, was I rooting for that not to happen. Everybody was against you ate too much.

You're too full. Oh. So you're, oh. Hold on. So where's my aggressive driving? No, it's just like all day. You guys are like an old married couple. Bouncing there.

It's just all day. I am in awe of how much you can eat. I really am. You're just a trash can, dude. I've never met anybody like that. My buddy in college, Dunkel just called me like the dumpster because he, like, no matter what he had left,

he would just push it or I just stare at it until he was like, you know what, dude, just have the second half of my meal. You sent a picture of a plate of chicken into the four plate group chat a couple days ago that no one could believe you were going to eat all of it, and then I asked you today and you said you ate all of it. That's going down.

And it is a, we might have to put the picture out. I'd say it was maybe 25 pieces of chicken. It is so much chicken. And I support you. Like, we eat a lot together. We have a good time. I had two burger dogs today. Right.

I enjoyed myself. But you really can eat. I love to eat. It's the type of chicken strips where if you went to a place, you went to a chicken strip place, and you order to large, it'd give you four to five strips of chicken. If you order like a large, you'd get that, you'd maybe get a little thing of mashed potatoes, a little side. I'm thinking of like, you know, like a KSC or whatever. You went large. Your strips of chicken, you had about 20 to 25 of those.

That was like three to four or five large orders. So, yeah, I mean, it's, yeah, it's with what? With what? It's a really good little chicken kind of like hungover, drunk chicken food that used to order. Yeah, I think that meal, I forget, I want to say, might be a large 24 pack. That's like 37 bucks. I think it's like 37 bucks. You used to come home and just sometimes we were roommates you'd eat like just a pokey bowl.

Right. And that's good, too. How would you do that? Because I need like seven? No, because like sometimes mentally I get in a spot where I'm like, all right, you got to trim it in, don't eat much. And so I'll just have that. Or maybe the halfway house was not one of those. Maybe that's on the backside of me eating a ton.

Like maybe that morning I might have had, you know, two or three breakfast sandwiches. Jesus. And then you get tonight and you're like, all right, let's hone it in before we go to bed. We got breakfast sandwich this morning. Right. It's in a big way. We got breakfast sandwiches this morning and we split a large chocolate. You got a full fucking breakfast this morning.

and got to the Olympic club and they had a buffet and you crushed the buffet breakfast. And then he had three cheeseburgers for life. Three cheeseburgers two hours later. Let's talk about Louis Oostahuzan. We got to get that in before this thing turns. I got a guy coming in seven minutes because we got to, we got to get this bird in the air. Should I get another Uber?

Yeah. We need the bird in the air in an hour and a half. So let's figure this shit out. Louis Oostahus and Husson steps up to the T. Oosterhusen. We're going to put that audio. Jake put that audio in my car. Princess on the fan

W-F-A-N U-F-A-N U-F-A-N U-S-A-N? No, he's not in, he's still on the course. Louis Ous-A-San. Louis Oostahusen's now

seven under. Louis Ous-Sazen. Ooster-Husen's in at no, he's not in, he's still on the course. Louis Ousazen. Louis Osterhousan's now seven under. He just flels one into the fucking abyss. It's one of the worst

T-shots I've ever seen. You've got to feel bad for him. You got to feel bad for him. You got to feel bad for the partner. Everyone's standing there. He doesn't want to make eye contact with Schwartzel. It's just a bad scene. And that's what happens when you have alternate shot. You are your partner.

Like his shot now is your shot. And when you hit a shot like that with all that money on the line, with all that hardware on the line, you've got to feel fucking horrible. From Justin Ray Golf, who's a great stats guy on Twitter, he said Louis Oosteusin, lone PGA Tort Tile remains his seven-shot win at San Andreas at 2010 Open. He's now finished runner-up in all four majors.

a WGC, the match play, the Players Championship, a regular tour event, the Valspar, a playoff event, and a team event. He's got that little gap in his tooth, and he always looks like he's just... His buddies call him Shrek. You're just, man, Louis, just figure it out, man. And you know what the saddest part about that shot was? He hit that drive. He was so confident stepping up there.

He didn't even take a practice thing. It was crazy. He just stepped up, fucking roasted it or tried to roast it. And he actually walked behind the little sign, the Zerick sign that was on the T-box so that no one in the group could make eye. contact with them. He actually went into the shadow of the sign and just stared out into

nothingness. Dude, that just sucks. I feel for him. I mean, I know the biggest shot of my life I shanked. What's the biggest shot? Oh, that was at the member guest? Member guest. Due process, New Jersey. I was going to get... Alternate shot? Alternate shot. Last playoff hole.

Our group versus one other group, we had won the first two playoff holes to go on. This is Louis Usa. I'm playing in the member guest that's literally called basically it's named after my buddy's dad who I'm playing with that passed away in 9-11 if we win this hole our two names David Bauer Ben Severance going to win the member guest the W. David Bauer Invitational I take a six iron out on a par five I got like 200 in there's water left I'm like

I first had five iron because the pin was back left and I was like no that brings in the water on the left hand side let's hit a six iron up to the right no problem Chip, pot. People like watching everything, right? I mean, probably had 100 people watching. I mean, probably had 100 people watching. Okay. All right.

I hit it off the Hossel of the 6 iron. My palms are starting to sweat. Huzzle the 6 iron, right. Lost ball. Oh. We're done. Show's over. I literally left that golf course, went back home,

lied on the couch, turned the lights off, got under a blanket and turned the ceiling fan on, and just refused to participate in life for the next couple days. Damn. You guys lose the, like, the hole by, like, one street. Yeah, no, after that, it was like, yeah, I think after that, they hit a shot up there that hit a rock in this little river that cuts through on the 8th hole and skipped up to the right. And I was like, you know what? This wasn't meant to be.

No. It was so meant to be. In all, every way. Every aspect of that it was meant to be. So after that. Your involvement in it. Right. And I played so well up to that point.

So well. You know what you needed for that? Because you kind of show your pants. I needed some dude wipes. I did. I mean, I could have had a blanket of dude wipes when I got home. I had dude wipes, you know, because we got a serious chat here about kind of your habits and your issues in that situation. You got to stop.

Everybody's just stop with a shitty, scratchy toilet paper and switch to dude wipes. Dude wipes are extra large flushable wipes made with plant sourced fibers. I didn't know that. Design to give your butt a cleaner and more refreshing finish than T. Just laugh at the word butt. Yeah, because I thought there was going to be like a doctor type term in there. And it was just butt. But right.

Like usually they give you something. Wasn't double tree sound like a like a toilet? paper company. Go pick up some double tree. Double ply? Yeah, I know. I know. It is, yeah.

It's just like, oh, I picked up some double tree today. We're staying there, and I just thought it sounded good. People were kind of roasting me for my cookie thing. I didn't know that double tree is giving everybody a cookie all the time. What? I just didn't know. Trent, tell them about double tree. Well, double tree is like the ritz in Cedar Rap.

Downtown. What's that? Across the street from. Quakerotes. He goes, man, the double tree is the shit in Cedar Rapids. It's across the street from Quaker Roads. from Quaker Oates. It's right in the heart of town. If you're at the double tree, you are living. And I'm like,

man, it sounds like toilet paper. Yeah, because when we got off the plane, Frankie was being very negative about double train. I was like, well, it's a pretty big deal. But, friend's like a Hilton honors, like he's got, he's already logged into the, uh, it's a big time, it's a big time hotel downtown Cedar Rapids. But you know what it's not. It's not, it's not dude wipes.

No, it's not. Be prepared for any, uh, situation on or off the course. With dude wives, they come at home and on the go options. They also have dude power. and dude shower body wipes. I actually, they're on-to-go options. I keep them my golf bag and everyone you're going to need them. You can find everything in Amazon or Dudewives at Walmart or Target nationwide.

They were doing the whole thing last night afterwards. Big old buffhead I liked it, but if that gets it done Their short games are ridiculous

Ridiculous. The Aussies, I feel like in general, just always are ridiculous around the greens. Cam Smith, every time they pan to him, he's chipping in, Leishman chipped in down the stretch, so they just hole out from all over the place around the greens. They're never out of any holes. Alternate shot is such an awesome format to watch golf.

It's great. I'm such a proponent for changing up formats selfishly week to week. Like when you see different formats, it's just so much better. And obviously, like match play, alternate shot, it's just so fun to watch because as you think about buddy strips, you usually do, you know, two-man best ball,

then maybe you do individuals for the last day. But if you have more rounds of golf, then you can throw in an alternate shot. It's so fun to see them do it. So it is. It is. It's so fun. Tough to throw alternate shot in on a buddy strip

because everybody always wants to play their own. Throwing ball. I know. But actually, this may have, like, convinced me to throw it into the next point. If you're doing like back-to-back-36. 36, you can do it. Afternoon round. Right.

drinks, it's a little more boozy. Really fun. Make it less point value than like a standard match maybe, but throw it in there. Big credit to the Zurich Classic for years ago going out of the limb and doing it and changing it. And I thought the product, I thought the alternate shot aspect to it, especially this last weekend, this Sunday was awesome to watch. So that was cool. Enleash and Cameron Smith, I mean, Cameron Smith, I've just been on a heater ever since the President's Cup. I've been playing really good golf, and then Leashman pops up and can play really good at any time.

Brooke Henderson got her 10th LPGA tour win in L.L. over the weekend. Her first win since 2019, it's her 10th, and she's only like 23 years old. So another one in women's golf where they're just really young and continue to dominate tournaments.

I also think, like, from what people have told me, Brooke Henderson is huge in Canada. Really? But like, huge in Canada. She's massive. Yeah, I think they, like, market the fuck out. She's like one of the biggest celebrity athletes in the country.

I can't. There was a tennis. Huge. There was a tennis star that faded. Canada? Yeah. Like, she's just really big in Canada. She's just really big in Canada.

She's literally up there. It's like she's huge. There was a tennis girl that was good but not great and she was honestly probably like more well known because she was very pretty. But she faded but she was like the top girl. And then Brooke now was absolutely massive. Yeah. And it was again, it was like my, yeah, you got to come up probably the name. Gotta come up with a name.

It doesn't sound that well known. It's all the tongue too. You're also you're saying like how well known it is. You don't know. Oh, I know. It's brutal. I think any of those tennis fans out there will know what I'm talking about. But I'm going to find her name.

hear some people even chime in on, you know, some of our Canadian listeners about how big she is there because, uh, because I have heard that like she is huge. Like a top 10, top 5 like celebrity athletes in, in the country of Canada. People fucking love their death. So, um, so good for her. She gets, she gets the win.

Jeannie Bouchard. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. I know her. I know that name. Kid me? Let's go. Yeah, I know her. Yeah, I know her. Okay. Um, um, Brooks. I just, yeah, I'm a fan of Jeannie Bouchard.

Why? I mean, we could say, I found out. It's sounding like a creep. No. Yeah. I'm a fan of her. I'm a fan of her. Same.

Didn't she go on the date with that dude? It was like a whole story. Yeah, some random guy that just followed her. Yeah, some random guy that was like, oh, like, can we go on a date? And they like dated, dated. Yeah, I think they ended up dating for months. They're like, oh, my God, she's giving him a chance. And, like, they were legitimately a couple.

It was crazy. He was just like Joe Schmoe and she just did his buffet bit. They do like a bet, like, if I win this or if you don't do something, I go on a date with you and it was like that? I think she, like, responded to a DM or something. Yeah. Like, yeah, fine. And then it happened.

That's how I fucking know her. So, relax. I feel like I was in a coma during that. You don't know what I'm talking about? No. Do you know Jeannie Bichard is? I know the name. I recognize that.

And then we've got something very interesting developing with Brooks Kepka and Dave Portnoy. This is huge. Brooks Kepka is going to play lefty against Dave Portnoy, just playing golf the way he plays golf. Frankie's on the bag for Dave. Kevka's got the part of my take guys on his bag. Look. for $250,000 to charity. $250,000.

I mean, that's just going to go to Kepka's charity. I mean, look, I famously, I famously doubted Dave Portnoy as hard as anybody in the world. That Mooligan challenge, man, when it came to the Mugan challenge, I kind of became the face of, like, there's no way he can do this, and then he just did it. Now, I'm going to say, again,

there's no way he could beat Brooks Kavka left-handed. There's just no way. How far did Brooks hit that drive in that video of him? It was 297. Lefty? Yeah, lefty. And then he hit a 190-yard, 8-iron or 9-iron, 9-iron. Then he's going to get beat on the 12-hole.

But, dude, like, Brooks is. That's the kind of guy Brooks is. He's in the fucking lab, and he was, like, hitting it really hard. And he did the muscle thing to the camera. We'll see if he can put it all together. I'm on Dave's side very hard because he's Dave Portnoy. Yeah. He's won for 20 years.

He's dominated. He's beating the headlines. He is the headlines. And I will be by Dave Portnoy's side until the end. We are going to win that match. he's going to need a little bit of practice because he hasn't played golf in a while so we're going to have to hit the range we're going to get some guys in here to teach us like how to play that i mean Dave has to score a good brooks is going to to play astonishingly well lefty i think and we need Dave to just play good golf I'm very curious to see you as the caddy because I know like typically your mindset and approach on golf, we always laugh about like your headspace and where you're at. But I actually think when you were Dave, you focus so hard on channeling him into the right spot.

When I'm with Dave Portner, I figure out what, what are the million options and where can I get in trouble and how do I not do that? And if I apply that to golf, where is our trouble out here? How can I get this guy to not hit the ball out of bounds and like into a bad spot? I will do that because it's my problem. problem if he hits up a lot of bounds. It's my problem. So we're going to figure out the best spots to be on that golf course. If I have to live on that golf course and scour those greens and make sure that I know every fucking break at that place, I will. So we're going to figure it out. We're going to get it done. Dave's going to play him. I think that Brooks is like putting

out these videos. It is what it is. We'll see how he can put it all together. It's going to be really hard for Brooks to go out there and shoot. People are tweeting at me. He's going to shoot a 78. Like, I don't think so, pal. And he's opposite hand. Yeah. And Dave's game is a mental game. And that's kind of what he said at the beginning. I'm calling him Kepkake, which I love. Right. So it's like he's going to try and work him in that angle, hopefully get him in bad spots. And, you know, I think this all started.

I don't even know if we talk about that, but it all started with someone tweeted at Dave, a picture of Dave signing U.S. Open flags. The Chinnacock flags. And Kepka out of the clouds was like, that would be worth more if it had my signature on it. And then Dave responded to that saying, I beat you by 20 strokes, buddy. And then Kepka responded to that saying, I'd beat you. lefty. And Dave, I think, said, when and where. Yeah.

And he said, it's on. 250 grand to your charity or my charity. It's going to be incredible entertaining. Dave texted me, I think before he agreed and said, does Kepka play lefty? And you and I were filming out at Quaker Ridge. I love that. Oh, we're so low. Yeah, we were at Quaker.

Yeah. Me and him were at Quaker. And I get a text message from Dave Portnoy. He goes, does Kepka play Lefty? And I had no idea what he was talking about. So I was going crazy. Like, what does that mean? Why does Dave Porta want to know?

Right. It's what you were trying to play out all the scenarios and your head like, what is it? I looked at like, I looked at like Akkadia and I was like, if you don't figure out why day porn I just told me, like, I'm going to murder someone. Like, it's all over. Like, you can call your family now. It's done. Like, we're all gone if I can't figure this out. So we finally go on Twitter and we see this exchange and I'm like, I was like, you know what?

I don't think I've ever seen him play left because we had seen Ricky and JT play offty. But like for some reason Kepka wasn't popping out. Like, what do you have popped up to you? Like, that you've ever seen? No. I don't know if I've seen those videos of him. No. Dave says, okay, tweets out it's on. Kepka responds with that fucking video.

And Dave goes, now what's this? I mean, you hit a 300-yard left. Like, we're fucked. Yeah. So we'll see. It'll be fun. It's good for charity. It's going to be good.

It's going to be great for charity. We'll talk a lot more about that in the coming weeks. I'm sure as it gets closer and, you know, we'll break all that down.
