Be the right club. Be the right club today. I mean, that's better than most. How about him? That is better than most. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the No Laying Up Live show presented by titleist. Solly here. We are going to recap an exciting, fun, somewhat thrilling day of golf of day two of the 2026 players championship.

Fresh off an epic showing last night. was just walked around with a different aura today with how right he was about his pronunciations last night. Mr. Neil Schuster. Hello, Neil. How are you? Good being with you. Pulling some magic tricks like that like my guy owes. Sally, I'd say the golf today better than most. But we have the big man here, my strap brethren. Randy, I just want to know, are you going to apologize to the DFS community for your pre-tournament picks? I think that's why everyone's tuning in. We've got about 1100 people waiting to hear. what you have to say.

What's the big man? I will apologize, Neil. Thank you for giving me this opportunity, this platform. To everybody who is tailing my picks, I know there are legion. I get messages. You wouldn't believe my inbox every day. Dozens, hundreds, thousands of messages, who we like this week. We tipped little boy, Colin.

Okay. You know, it just. Bought high. Not high again. Again, I hate to see a friend do this. continues to get in. Not only buy high meal, maybe at the top. Yeah, we might have bought in at the very top.

And then I, so that, that news broke Thursday. And I was like, man, that's a tough one. That sucks, Colin. I'm like, oh, let me check how my guy Ryan Fox is doing it. And I went through the leerboard. I'm like, that's weird. I don't see his name. And he wasn't even like, you know, a WD.

I'm like, he was in the, I didn't pull a TC here with Horshiel, did I? And so I googled him. Well, it turns out my guy had kidney stones and had. to officially withdraw before he even teed off. He's in a hospital bed. So it and the Hugh Freeze thumbs up. We were saying we need to roll them into the balcony at the, at the global home so he can watch from across the street.

It's kind of like, who's the football coach Hugh Freeze? Yeah, exactly. Get them up there in the hospital bed. I feel like I need to be in a hospital bed up there after this week. So anyway, very sorry. Yeah. I feel like I'm in a similar spot because TC picked Ludwig to win. and I pick Zander not to win

and I'm not sure which one I'd rather have hit. I think I'd rather just have the not to win when hit rather than the DC even though I would clearly root for it. Because what does that matter? You floss like eight of those. Our show's presented by Titleist the overwhelmingly number one golf ball

and most played driver iron and wedge at the players championship. And thanks to our friends and titleists, we're getting straight to the content commercial free until Cody says we're allowed to run commercials. All right. We'll be making no money tonight until Cody allows us. We can't put a time on that.

We're just going to get to the next ad when we get there. We got to make people laugh. We got to be entertaining. Then he's going to let us run to bat. So Neil, where are you going to start? Oh, man. I mean, like I said,

the golf better, almost too good today. Like not a lot of controversy. We have to start with Ludwig, though. I mean, prime time afternoon viewing nine under 63, gaining,

Sali, I know you love this, over nine shots on the field. Data boy. I would say one of the most complete rounds of golf I've ever watch start to finish. I don't think that's hyperbolic. He had one little sneeze on 15 where he kind of flubbed the chip, but he chipped in twice. Let's see, what do you start? Five under through the first four holes with a chip in on the fourth hole as well. Chipped in on nine. He was six under

on the par fives, gentlemen. And it's just with Ludwig, it looks so easy. It looks like video game mode. Like he's just taking the golden tea back and just zipping it forward. Sally, I don't know. You were out there today. I know you're kind of having a little date with with Hannah, but did you, did you run into Ludwig at all? Did you see any anything live with him? We didn't, we were kind of ahead of that group, and it was kind of one of those weird days because the cell phone service was awful out there. Like, it was, it was, it was overcrowded. Wi-Fi was not working. Like, it was, it was like, kind of like a master's day of you're kind of out there on your own, kind of trying to figure out what's going on. There was a literal buzz coming from the front of the golf course.

You know, like, word was passing throughout the crowd as to what was going on. up there. Ludwig, he's four under through three. Oh, that was Ludwig again. He's five under through four. And we were, I was kind of standing behind seven green as that happened. And like, there was just a, there was a crowd forming around seven green as this run, this run was happening because the crowd was really

that big and that active out there today. But it, if Wednesday was the day that we, you know, we did the thing on Wednesday, like this is the day rollout became president. Like Friday was kind of the day Ludwig announced himself officially to, to the wider golf world. To your point, this was

in primetime on Friday afternoon and making that big of a statement. I know he's won a signature event. I know he's accomplished a lot of things. He's done well-ish in Rider Cups. But this was the most significant, probably, right, TV moment that Ludwig has had so far. Is that fair to say? It's a run. Well, Randy, you go ahead.

I want to, what's your take there? Well, to Sally's question, I feel like maybe from the, was it the Masters two years ago when he was in contendent. there I would maybe put up but yeah huge huge day for Ludwig I'm with you what we saw out of him today is what makes him so enticing and why he gets picked so often I think between us to win big events I mean when when he's on it just looks so effortless and so easy Neil to your point you know the golden tea analogy is a great one I besides I know he had the bogey on 15 and

And he missed a couple of fairways, but just never really looked out of, out of his comfort zone at all. And you could, have you guys ever started around 3, 3, 2, 3? I mean, I would shit my pants if I start my first four holes of the day like that. But he kept it together. I think the flip side of this discussion then is what a day this is for Ludwig and also that it's Friday afternoon. and now it makes me so curious to see what we're going to get from this weekend to see how he follows up not only tomorrow, but now playing with the lead and around this course specifically. It's going to be very, very enjoyable viewing this weekend, I think.

A couple other stats, 29 on the front, I believe only two other people have done that. First guy or since, five under through four holes. What's this guy's name? Derek Fathner. Fathauer. Thank you. I just hands up. I know.

I couldn't get it. Justin Ray had a tweet or I always, whenever I thought something historic's happening, I just go check out just. I'm like, Justin, you got something for me. Sure enough,

I looked up Fathauer. He's got his Instagram handle is D Long Balls. So there's that. Is S or a Z? I think with an S. But you can go check. You can go fact check me on that one too. But just,

I mean, some kind of historic stuff going on with Ludwig today. Like I said, one bogey, only bogey on 15. But I think the impressive part, he's one of the fastest players on tour. And he's playing in a twosome because Randy's boy Colin left him out to dry. I'm sorry. Along with the DFS community, Colin, you know, basically ice in the guy. They had a stat up on the broadcast after he finished 10. He waited just about 15 minutes to hit a tee shot on 11.

and then just goes on to pipe it right down the middle. And they showed a really good slow-mo of just, like, him hitting the ball square. Like, just the best driver contact you've ever seen. And the ball, like this step, like, I remember I did a, you know, a video with Ludwig a couple years ago. And I was like, which way do you like to work the ball? He's like straight. Just I was like, really? He's like, no, I just try to hit it straight.

I'm like, who does that? I mean, the guy's like, it's, he's like a cyborg. It's unbelievable. So we kind of got the full. I don't know, Ludwig experience today. And I think we've all been waiting for that a little bit. So it did feel like a statement, Sali, to your point.

I mean, it was not very long ago. I was, you know, I was trying not to sound the alarm on Ludwig, but I think I said something along the lines of like, I'm not zero percent worried about Ludwig. Like you didn't have a great West Coast again. And it just was, you know, not really trending in the right direction.

But then you watch, like, we get on a huge, like, today it was like, even on the golf course like TBC sawgrass where trouble looms at every turn. You don't know. in theory you don't know what's going to happen. It never like when you get to 17T, I was like, oh, I literally can't imagine a world where he hits his ball in the water. Like he's not going to miss big right now. And even 18T was like,

I cannot imagine a world where this gets into massive amounts of trouble. Now, that's because that today went well. We've also seen in this tournament many times where guys have a cruisy couple of days and you get to Saturday and you get one thing goes wrong and then eight things go wrong. And it is still a golf course. I said this last night too, is like, this is a long-ass tournament, like long-ass tournament.

And there's, we're technically halfway through it. But like from a drama standpoint, I don't think we're even close to halfway through this actual golf tournament. I agree with that. But I would say his interview with Todd Lewis after both rounds was almost identical. Like, Globvig, how'd you play out there? It's like, I just got off to an awesome start. Like, I hate it great. It was, you know, it was kind of like a carbon copy of yesterday with some better putting

and a couple chip-ins. And so that, to me, back to our Sajah conversation yesterday, which we'll get there, Salih, you know, feels a little more sustainable where you're like, oh, that kind of looked like yesterday. It's just like five more under par. It felt very normal. So I, you know, it's impressive. I want to flip to Xander, though.

Morning wave, Zander goes out as the pace car a little bit. Kind of a surprise. I mean, no one's been talking about Zander. Second in total strokes, gain, 7.2 on the field. just killed it off the tee, hit 14 of 14 fairways, gained 3.15 strokes off the teeed off on 10, Bertie 11 almost hold out from 171 on 14 with a nine iron, kind of like ran one of as it looked like it was downwind. Then birdie's 15, 16, 1, 4, it makes 37 footer on 8, which that's an impressive birdie on

8, which was his 17th hole, and then taps in for Bertie on 9 after almost chipping in, which is kind of where he got picked up in the coverage. And it was all, it was like, oh, okay, you know, just a, just a comfy, comfy round for Xander to kind of set the pace at the top of the leaderboard. And that held up pretty well over the course of the day. So I don't know, Randy, did you get to watch any of Zander today? I saw him finish. So I didn't, I didn't see a ton of his round. But just nice to see him back and in this position, I think.

I was telling you guys right before we came on. I'll tell the audience now, like when I look at this leaderboard, I think it's really interesting without a Scotty or without a Rory. You do have a guy like Xander who has proven himself, but his recent form, you know, we're kind of looking for him to reestablish himself. And same with a guy I would say like Justin Thomas, who we'll talk about here in a second. But otherwise, it's a lot of guys right now who like this would be, a players would be like the breakthrough win of their career, right? And so I think it's a great leaderboard.

And I guess I say all that was Xander in that he's the one guy where like if he's, if he's on, man, we've seen him put put the pedal down and blow fields away. And like he can absolutely close this tournament. So it's fun to see him there. I think his presence, you know, it's the same question we're going to ask for everybody. it's obviously 36 holes to go. And as, as Holly said, you know, the drama and the pressure on Saturday

and certainly Sunday is a far cry from what it's been thus far. So yeah, I guess that's just a long-winded way, Neil of saying like, Xander, great round. And I love having them back and seemingly playing well. I think that's a good thing week to week and for the overall health of the tour and just like an enjoyment perspective for these leaderboards.

Are you throwing Scotty aside? And Zander becoming your favorite player there? No, no, no, no. We're going to get to Scotty. I'm just trying to say nice things about Zander. Solly, curious, if you were you able to check Xander's app, any updates over there? Maybe there was some apps, most updates on the app that I missed this week. Because again, he was my pick not to win.

And I was relatively dismissive, if not outright disrespectful about his chances to win this week. Just came across my desk that he finished T2 here two years ago to Scotty. in 2024, which I think I did know that. I just had not committed that one to memory and that one, that one slipped by my desk. It just didn't feel like Xander was that close. It didn't feel like he was that much of a factor. And now, Randy, I'm sitting here.

And I'm kind of, as fun as far away as we are from Sunday night, a fun little game to like look at some names on the leader board and be like, oh, what would that mean for so-and-so's career? Like two majors and a players all of a sudden becomes like, who, all right. I mean, that's caught right up with JT, very, very quickly. JT had a 3-0 lead in that category as of 2022 when that happened.

Ludwig, it's like, oh, okay, a stepping stone to being a major. A bit of an Adam Scott play of like he's arrived, right? Yes. With Ludwig, that's what I would equate his win here to be. Yeah, he's not quite emerged as like a major, major contender or somebody that you say, like, how was that guy not won a major yet? But that's like that's an appropriate stepping stone. Cameron Young somewhat the same of, I mean, just been on an absolute tour.

forward run of golf since last August after we all kind of forgot about him for a little while and has extremely good major championship. My pick this week. Excuse me. Sorry. Just wanted to get that one in there. I forgot you picked that one. That's right.

Oh, yeah. That's right. Got some newgies on that this week. No, Sully, I'm with you 100% straight down the leaderboard. Corey Connors, I'd even throw him in like he's been rushing the I want to be a dude fraternity for years.

A win here would be, you know, He just guys, he's a ball straighter. He keeps showing up at the social. Showing up. They won't let him in the fraternity. He's not a dude. But like, when here, and it's like, ah, man, you know, respect.

I'm trying a little too hard. It's like, come on, come on, man. I think he was second or third in approach. Let's see. Yeah, second of approach. This year. Zero top 20s for Cory Conner. So I, I'm just saying long term.

No, no, I know. Every year he shows up to the spring mixer. You know, he's like, hey, guys, come on. I'd like to, I'm cool, right? It's like, nah, maybe not. maybe not, but he rushed next year. Just come back next year. You know, you could be kind of the above class, above,

uh, upperclassman rushing. But down the JT, same thing, like two time players winner. Like that's, I mean, I'll come off a back surgery. Like, I thought JT's round. I'd like to go there next. Like, I thought he was so patient, uh, today with it, you know, sometimes he feels like JT can force it. This is just my perspective on it.

And can get into a little bit of hero ball, a little heliocentric, Randy. use a basketball term. You know, it's like a little too much one-on-one game for me, J.T. I'd like to see you move the rock a little bit. But he had a great up and down. I felt like he paced himself on the front nine, great up and down on 10, and then chips in.

I mean, one of the best chips I've seen in recent memory on 11. And I would shout out the broadcast. They set this chip up. And they also set up Ludwig's chip when he chipped in on nine from that funky pot bunker in front of nine green they they spent like 30 seconds being just kind of talking through j t specifically like man he's like roj was great he's like he's got to this is a downhill lie he's got to get this into the hill if he skips it too hard it could go you know across the green and they just kind of built the um i don't know the stakes of of how hard that chip was great view from behind

and he just dunks it and it was like in the amphitheater that hole looks incredible when they you know bust out the drone that was just kind of a moment today and And I felt like it, to me, felt like JT's kind of back, which it felt very, that also felt sustainable to me. Well, that's, sorry. That moment kind of like, like bounced around this afternoon. So it's like, oh, Kepka time. Here we go. Scottie's doing a little something over here.

Now Ludwig's over here, Fleawood, Eagle on 16. It was kind of like, hey, are we bouncing between some names right now? And to your point, Neil, on the setting up the JT shot. That's one thing, again, just obvious, but from being in person is like, those stakes are on their every that's the whole deal with TPC sawgrass is there's consequence and stakes to everything you bail out left of 11 to any pin you're going to have a hard time especially to that way back left one that they had today up on that up on that range up on that tier I spent some time on the second hole today which had like just a pretty benign looking front left pin and you look at it and everywhere on the surrounds I'm like looking for the bailout spot like where are you supposed to hit this to be able to get up and down and I watched Shane Lowry bail it outright I watched um I think Ricky hit it over there on the right as well. And that looked like the safe spot. And they were in horrific spots because you end up on a downslope in thick rough landing

on a downslope. But if you would have missed left, like where Sahith missed it, you're chipping over a pot bunker off a downslope out of thick rough, you know, to a short-sided pin. It's just it is so, has to be so exhausting playing all of these humps, bumps, contours and challenges with getting zero relief off of missing fairways. Like you're going to pay for missing every single fairway on this golf course. That's what I'm saying is like it, it made Ludwig's round that much more impressive just with how clean it was

other than the hiccup on 15 because these traps are just fucking everywhere. They're everywhere. You kind of, you threw a little prompt at me of like, you know, hardest hole location or that you saw it there. I was like, dude, I think it's like there's a tie for first for like six of them because of how, you know, just up close and personal, seeing the grain change around a lot of these whole locations

and how guys are able to control their spin all these shots. It's just such an awesome, awesome, awesome test of golf. I would throw a little love towards number two. I feel like one's such a handshake if you hit the fairway. It feels pretty like Ludwig just throws a dart in there. Like, okay, we're off and running. That T shot on two, though, like just demanding, like, can you work the ball right to left? And it feels like such a good litmus test of like what kind of day you're going to have?

I almost remember watching Min Wu Lee. I don't know if that was last year the year before where you're just like, oh, God, you know, just two is just kind of like, all right, man, here we go. This is the true start of the round. Two is awesome. It's a great hole. I was, I didn't see the T shot that Speath hit, but I got to two. We went there to see Jordan.

And we look up there and like, what? There's a blue, that's the AT&T blue bag. And he's like on the forward T box up there. What is that? There's like a murmur among the crowd. like what I assumed he hit the I've later found out Cody told me he hooked it and hit the tree I but the crowd thought he topped it like oh yeah he must have topped it he might he didn't reach the fairway from back there uh lays it up to 183 yards and then makes the put uh bomb put probably a 45

footer from the front of the green for his fifth birdie in a row i think at that point that was that was the most electric moment i saw all day so speed uh he shot 68 doubled 18 which is very very fun had a great post round where somebody asked him like Like, you know, later tonight, will you be able to remember the good from this round? And he's like, absolutely not, man. Like, have you ever played golf? You know, it was such a good quote from him. But he did execute a TC, five birdies in a row, 16.

He started on 10. So he birdied 16 through number two, missed a five footer for six in a row. And then birded four. So he could have had seven in a row if he makes that five footers. Classic, kind of a classic speed, speed day to double the last hole. though. It was nine. His 18th was nine, not 18. Excuse me. Yeah, but last whole day.

Part 5 is especially, especially painful. That's, that's, I mean, what do you think, Randy? I've just been hearing murmurs just everywhere that Jordi's close. Do you feel that way? Well, is close? I want him to be

close. Believe me, I've been begging, I've been asking for the last few years I feel like. for years. I don't trust it because of stuff like nine today. I still, I don't know what's going to give me.

Like he's going to have to do it for four days. Like I truly think at this point, it's just you got to show me four days. You got to go win something. It's the only way I'm going to believe he's back. Otherwise, there's just always the disaster lurking with him. And it's thrilling and it's frustrating.

It's exhilarating sometimes. but I yeah I'm I'm not I'm not bought in yet I mean he might be propping up X the everything app at least from a golf standpoint I mean it's just he's just a content machine like yeah the chair had a good one was like anytime you see a golfer behind a tree and you can't see him it's always Jordan speed you know what I mean or like it just like he's in a crowd of people they're all searching for his ball it's just it's it's it truly is electric I just I I think I've made this comparison before but like he's the feeling I would get watching Mickelson, like the closest I felt to that is with Jordan Speed.

And not just like this, like really kind of throughout his career, or at least starting with the disaster at number 12 at Augusta, however many years ago. Since then, it's like, oh, yeah, no bad things can happen. Like, you do not know what's around the morning. That was Pandora's box. We opened it right in that moment. It was like, oh, no, I don't want, I don't like this anymore. I don't like this. But we got to get them winning.

We got to get them back. we got to get them win and you know we we got to get back to the high highs like that's i really want that neal but i'm just i feel like maybe i'm jaded i'm keeping my guard up there i know it's a bit of we used to make stuff in this country it's like i don't know man are we going to reshore is jordan spith i don't know how many career pjutor wins for jordan speed like right now what does he have yeah i think it's like 13 neal i just stay hot is that right is that right Day hot. I thought it was in the 12-13 range.

Is that right? You're exactly right. Do you remember the last tournament he won? That's a good question. Oh, was it? You're going to get it, I bet. I'm thinking with a V like Valspar or Valero. That's the second to last one that he won.

So you're, which one? Was it? Valero. Valero, 2021. Yeah. What was it? It was. Oh, was it Harbor Town?

It was Harbour town. Easter Sunday, 22. You're exactly right. Yeah. 24 years. Yeah, that's, oh, God, four years. I mean, just about four years now since he's won a tournament. That's crazy.

I kind of, I might be speaking to go. Can he go play like a member guest or something? Like, can we get him some like some G League wins or something, Randy? You know, just to get the feeling back of like, you know. That's a good question. Like when he's just out at home. screwing around like is he going out does he have like the 59 in him

at home Tubbs in a in a money match back in Texas I need I need him to get the mojo back a little bit four years is a long time I hate that sally not only that he's got two wins in the last 3,155 days since he won the open championship

in 2017 at Burkdale Jesus I still believe don't give me wrong don't get me wrong but yeah like he has them like he has the same gas pedal, like the same hot runs in him, he just has way more retreat. Like, he just always finds a way to back up, even on his best. He doubles the last hole each of the last two days. And that's why we love him. Yeah, relatable. The Zander round didn't make me feel

anything today. But the speed round made me feel sudden today. That's the reason why. What about the Ludwig round? Did that make you feel something? It did. It did because it just looked like a freaking superhero out there of like that. As much golf as I've watched, all of this week, just watching somebody be so excellent at it in such a like commanding way and watching how many mistakes I've seen on all of these shots and all these holes. Like just somebody to separate like that did make me feel a little something. And Ludwig's like quite an easy guy to root for. And just like one of the most normal people I feel like out of any tour pro.

So interestingly, I was just looking real quick on Ludwig, the last person to win the players leading at 36 holes. Do you guys know? It wasn't not recently. I mean, and J.T. J.T. had a, what, do he have a big Friday where he shot like 63, I think? Saturday. Saturday.

Yeah. Rory in 2019 had a, so not that it can't be done, but we've seen people go out and post numbers through 36 holes the last several years. I guess that's why I'm so fascinated with Ludwig is how do you follow a 63? You know, I'm like, Sali, you're going to make fun of me. I might as well just ask you this.

I equate it to the old school baseball adage. Oh, yeah. Like Dusty Baker would talk about, you know, like when you clog the bases, or like the, how home runs can be a ratch. Allie killer almost. Oh, yeah.

That's, like, I almost think there's this weird thing. Like, you don't want to go too low on Thursday or Friday. Don't want to Bernie the first. Yeah. And I don't know. It just, I feel like it's just so hard on a, on a difficult golf course, especially to follow that up the next couple of days. So, well, I don't know.

It's just so. It might have been a rally killing 63 for Ludwig today is what I'm saying. That's the headline of the show. He would have been better off you at the title of the show. Yeah. It is always hard for whatever reason to post that 63 when you have an afternoon tea time on the weekends. I mean, it just, you know, golf courses tend to get harder throughout the day on the weekends, especially when they're really trying to push them.

And the attention's different. The television cameras are there. The pace is probably a little bit slower there on the back end. The crowds are there. The buzz is there. You can't sneak up on it and kind of just, you know, it's impossible also to not like look over, see your name on the leaderboard, know you're in the mix. Like, you know, you can play on Friday afternoon

and just try to make as many birdies as possible. And on the weekend, you're playing to win. And it is very different. So a horrible analogy big with the base clogger stuff and the home runs. Base logger, not as much. But maybe the rally killing home run is what I should have. I see what you're going for. It's like, it's like scoring 14 runs in a game and winning by a lot.

And then going on playing the next day and you'd be like, oh, we used them all up. Like we got no, we had no chance here. That's, I think, closer to it. Yeah. Just just working down the leaderboard, Sep, Sep Straka, the Oaks. I mean, solid days in six, shoot 70. He kind of had it going early on the front nine and then cooled off.

Lee Hodges sticking around. He's at six under. Jacob Bridgman, 68 today. So he climbed. Bridgman, also another guy that's kind of rushing the fraternity of dudes. He's kind of, he's knocking on the door saying, guys, like, I'm, I'm thinking about. He's got some allies in the frat. I think he's building some, yeah.

He wants a guy back for a second night. 100%. Mav kind of stuck in neutral, shoot 71, but he's T7. Smotherman continues to play pretty good, even part of day, but he's T10. Thor Bjornton,

65, impressive there. And then Tommy had the most, Tommy's at T10, shot 70 today. It was the most elegant, non-competitive round from Tommy. I mean, just vintage Tommy stuff.

You know, Eagle 16 to just stay in the mix. It's going to be such a glorious top. 10, an uncompetitive top pen. But I don't know, any of those names doing anything for you guys. I did see a fair amount of Thorpe Jones today. He was playing with Max. So, you know, I don't know what to, like, I want to say, like, he has phenom potential.

We haven't seen much of it on a week-to-week basis, but like his good is very, very, very good. And that's kind of obvious. But, yeah, I follow him week to week, and I've just got my eye on him of trying to see if he's about to make a leap of some kind. And I was just very impressed by a 700 par round today. And I can't make my mind up on him. I really can't. I think he could be a almost like a post type sleeper.

It feels like we've heard that name since, you know, he was, I think it was the travelers where he top five, I think is an amateur or whatever that was. And it, you know, has it really, the success hasn't immediately followed from there. And then we've a little bit forgot about him. Obviously, he had a great run and almost one waste management just a few weeks ago. hasn't done great since then. And I don't know what's make of it other than this could be a bust out moment for him this weekend as well.

That's what I was going to say, that whole group until you got to Tommy, and I mean, for being honest, like PGA Tour wins wise, you can include Tommy. So like that whole group, like a win this week would be like by far either a coming out win, the biggest win of their career to date. You know, it's a very interesting group of. guys to see kind of who who can put their foot on the gas this weekend and really make a run. It could be, as DJ said last night, you know, referencing Oaks, like player winners of your, where it's like, yeah, sometimes you do get a Fred Funk, you know, like no offense to Lee Hodges,

but hey, I mean, I don't know, man. There seems like there's some faster horses, you know, and then you work down a little bit farther. Brian Harmon, 64, LBH, always do. doing stuff out of nowhere. I just can't get over how big his putter is. It blows me away every time. It's just compared to him, though. I know. It's just a thing. It's massive.

And then Russ, tough finish for Russ. I was, I'm firmly in the Russ as a dog camp. He's a dude. He's a dog. Oh, I was pushing back that he's not a dude, but he's a dog. I think he is a dude, but he doubled 18 after. He gets you're already ruining

the dude thing. The dude thing, it is just something you don't throw around flippantly. I think you're right, Sali. We probably have too many. The fraternity is small. It's more of a secret society of dudes, maybe, like the skulls or something. But I felt like Russ was just quietly climbing the leaderboard on the back nine today and then wrecked his rig on 18. So that was tough.

Vic, Victor's 70 today. He's doing some stuff. Fitzpatrick played pretty well. But I don't want to go down the leaderboard TC style. What about Max, Sally? you said he kind of had another volatile high frequency day. What did you see out there?

I went to go check, you know, his score after the round. I was like, I have no idea. I get into the app. I don't know. Am I supposed to go up or down? I don't know which way I'm supposed to go with this. By my total,

so far this week, he has two Eagles, 10 birdies, 13 pars, nine bogeys, and two doubles. So far. So, yeah, 13 pars total in 36. holes. He started on the first hole today, made Eagle on the second hole, then bogeed four, birdied five, bogeed seven, birded nine, birded ten, bogeed 11, bogeed 12, bogeyed 13, birded 14, bogeed 15. So of those 13 bars, he finished the day with three parts on 16, 17,

and 18. Like he's just all over the place. But the good is good. I mean, he's, you know, he's making a ton of birdies out there. But Max has quietly played a lot better golf in the in the last few weeks and months he i got dinner with him on tuesday and he seems to be in a very good headspace and seems to have uh well i don't think he's blown smoke up my ass just talking about like what he's working on what he where things kind of fell apart for him and exactly how he got back on track he seems to have uh he seems to have it commit his commitment towards what he's working towards and that it is the right path and i think that's like more than half the battle when you're trying to get your way out of a slump of some kind and wondering what's going

wrong you're not showing up to the goal you're not showing up to the of course, wondering how you solve it. It's just kind of one more day, one more day of reps and keep building on it. And I'm absolutely 1,000% still a believer. Yeah. A couple things to note on Max. Love seeing the feet of putts made today. 100, nearly 124 feet.

Good for fifth on the day. Anytime we're in triple digits, Randy, I know that you have an alert on your phone for that within the PG&Tor app. Anyone going over 100? Let me take this opportunity to reiterate. Thank you to the PGA tour for making this a stat that I can track as easy as I can. Absolutely, it tickles me. But our guy, Max, just a tough time getting up and down. One for five scrambling, including one for four out of the bunker.

So, Neil, we got to get him, you know, that Shafua energy maybe. I'll say, the only swing I saw on TV today, his approach is shot into 17. and the swing, it's starting to look back to, similar to Ludwig. I like it, Max, his move has always been very simple to me. And when I watch both those guys, I'm almost like, why can't I do that? They just take it back and take it through on plane. It just looks really easy. And Max is getting back.

It didn't look as easy last year. The swing is getting back to that effortless move. And he hit a great one in the 17 pin high. So, yeah, I think the eye test is telling me it's getting better. One thing too on Max. There was a lot in the last year, year and a half, whatever, it's been a lot of of, a lot of rehearsals, a lot of like clearly we're working through some stuff. He has been so quick on the trigger, like very little rehearsal, and he's very much

just like playing golf when he's out there. And that was an encouraging thing to see of like it doesn't look like he's pounding in a swing feel of some kind or some kind of awkward rehearsal before he goes to hit. He's just kind of looking out at the shot, seeing it and hitting it right now. So that how does speed that just triggers my mind with speed. Do you notice speed is he still doing a ton of weird? He's way less too. Now that you mentioned it.

Now that you, I haven't like committed that to a thought, but now that you mention it, it seems to be a lot more simple. And even the like not as much, granted it's not that warm out here, but not as much, you know,

reaching for the towel and all the, uh, nervous energy getting out before a shot. It's a similar, similar vibe going on with Jordan when he's, when he's standing over a golf ball. gentlemen i don't want to necessarily interrupt you nor is it uh commercial time yet but there is somebody who decided to make an appearance i don't know what he wants to say i wish there was some music that i could play but you know it's it was somebody's big day out there so we'll i'm sure we won't be rehashing anything we've already discussed so far tc how are you talk to us uh i was doing great until i was driving down a1a and i had to pull over neal and because you were going down the leaderboard

While at the same time, you were shitting all over Tommy. And then Randy, the- I said it was elegant. I wasn't shit on him. I said he was an elegant- And then Randy took a gratuitous shot at him, lumping him. It would be as huge.

With some of the mules. Solly's talking about, or we got Neil talking about Joseph or Jacob Bridgman being a dude. Neil, we're not there yet with that. No, no, no. He's rushing. He's rushing the dude fraternity. He's, he's trying to, he wants to be in.

And then we've got Randy the Ludwig Rally killer Home Run thing is I thought that was a great take That was egregious That was horrible

And then I don't think I can believe in Thor Bjornson After what I heard from him At the first timeers press conference His favorite his favorite golf courses Just Just bad stuff there So

What were they Was the maybe you haven't seen that tc do you remember them i think it was like i mean it was truly a murderers row it's like prines uh i think he said oakmont i think he said quail hollow tory pine no tory pine's tbc sawgrass bay hill and and baltiss roll okay yeah there were there were there were a few other bad bad answers in there but no i just couldn't i was driving down the road and i just didn't feel like you were giving ludwig his flowers properly randy it's talked about for like 15 minutes earlier, T.

No, it's fabulous. It's, no, I think we did, T.C. You might just, I just missed the first 10 minutes. But thank you. We appreciate this feedback.

We take it seriously. And we, all right. You know, are you going to Dairy Queen? No. Hey, T.C., a real man of faith

would know or would believe and think we're going to do this on Sunday night. Instead of you needing to have a victory lap on on Luffington on Friday. It is Friday. It is Friday.

It felt like Saturday out there. You know, the crowds. It's starting to get It's starting to get firm again It got harder as it went along today I think I think we're in for a great great weekend

I followed Ludwig for most of the day today And yeah it was really really cool to watch him Put together around a lot of Swedes out there too So a lot of swabs What's Freddie doing is he in the car No no I dropped him off I'm going to Del Campo party at Hotel Palms He's got a social calendar

I'm so tired, man. I just want to go to bed. But yeah, I'm going to pop in here and then and then, yeah, I'm trying to get out there early tomorrow. So it was such a nice day. Thank you for holding us accountable. Get yourself a blizzard. You deserve it. Get yourself something special, a little treat Friday night.

You know, good stuff from your guy. I mean, Tommy was pretty uncompetitive. So I think that was fair. But sure, Ludwig deserves his love. I mean, he was more competitive than Scotty. That's for sure. But, hey, Neil, I just, you were going down the leaderboard and I appreciated it. And I just, I just had to, I just couldn't let you guys slip some anti-Tommy and anti-Lovig stuff into into the going down the leaderboard segment.

So we appreciate that. Thank you, T.C. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, T.C. Yes. That's good. It seems like, sorry, seems like T.

It seems like T. It was out, out there. It was, it was a special day out. It was truly one of the best days. ever had at the players in terms of just the vibe, the energy, the weather. Like it was, the town was absolutely stunning. I would say it was a good day. And you can make the day a good day with the all new high noon day pack.

This new variety A pack will be available year round to keep the sun shining and the good times rolling, crafted with real vodka and real juice. The high new day pack brings together pear, cranberry, tangerine, and peach. It's the perfect combo of light, bright, delicious flavors for a blue sky day. I am going cranberry to start. And I got a pair of one sitting right here because this was a two drink day. This was a two drink celebration day. You go to high noon spirits.com to find a pack near you.

High noon sun's up and the sun was absolutely up today. Solly, I got something for, well, I had, Randy, I had a one on one today. Just talking shop, you know, wonderful. Checking in. It's great, great to catch up with the big man on some back office stuff. But I was saying, I was like, man, I was down in Jackson. It's been a tough winter up here. And then I turned the tournament.

I was like, God, it looks gorgeous down there. Course just popping. Look like an awesome day. My question for you, course conditions. It seemed like it played easier today. We expected it to, you know, the wind to blow. And based on TC's forecast, I thought we were going to have, you know, a little bit more carnage. What did you feel like when you were out there?

What do you got for me? Yeah, it only played a little bit easier by the. scoring by the scoring average than yesterday, maybe about a full shot. It was 72. almost four today, and it played to 73.1 yesterday. It, this is maybe a dumb take. Like,

it looked harder than I felt like it played. I mean, I'm looking at it. It's still shiny. The rain yesterday definitely hurt, but balls weren't like spinning super easy. It wasn't like it was a, you know, a dart fest. It was just some, some really, really, really good golf. The thing with CBC Sawgrass,

there are still like five birdie holes out there. The four par fives and 12. You know, 12 is actually playing just a little bit harder than we're used to seeing at play. But, and it's actually playing closer. It's actually playing over par so far. But, you know, it's a par 72 with some relative, there's some good opportunities to score. And a lot of wedges on other par fours that aren't like drive a bull holes.

So like you're just not going to see. Randy, I know you want carnage, carnage. I know you want to see more plus numbers out there. that's just unlikely on this particular golf course. That doesn't mean there's not challenge out there and there's not bogies to be had. But you're right, it didn't have like, we were super stoked about the test coming into it,

the firmness of the greens, the thickness of the rough. And I still think like that has worked to the credit of the PGA tour and the setup and the competitions team in terms of what they've been able to get out of this. The fact, there's only two guys in double digits under a halfway point of a PGA tour event with rain is a good thing.

And we didn't have to go lift clean in place. Like the course was in good enough shape that they did not have to play ball in hand. They never have to, but they did not elect to do that these last couple of days. It's just been some real golf and some good golf. I mean, yeah, there's only nine guys, six under or better. After 36 holes, like, rain, that's pretty close, man.

For PGA tour golf, that's not the U.S. Open, I loop the test so far. I think, again, for March, It's just as good as we can realistically hope it to be because it just isn't going to dry out in a human place like this when it's before it gets super warm while I got overseas. Randy, where does this stack up on the proper test scale for you? Well, listen. Priitary model, of course. Yeah, it's there are 80s out there.

So I do appreciate it. It does hit the, you know, we can measure it on the index. So that's not nothing. I think, Sali, like, I don't get as mad about this not being a super, super hard test of golf, just because that's not necessarily my expectations. And I know that they're not necessarily going for that either. So it doesn't bug me. The one variable is always the wind.

You know, I just think it's more interesting viewing when guys have to deal with wind on top of everything else. so the more it blows the happier I get but yeah I think it's good I would expect the course to firm up and you know we'll I don't think we're going to get up to like 18 under 20 under par I'd be shocked so I don't know maybe maybe you feel differently but I think we're in a decent place yeah and it's it's probably a little windier out there than it looks on TV I mean it's not But there's, it's not no wind. And it's not just, you know, dome golf. That's for sure.

I mean, there's been, there's been a little bit of conditions. And of course, that's way out of that. You definitely saw that on specifically 13T when they're back in that corner. A lot of player caddy convoes are right. That's coming out of the left, right? You know, I know Scotty was asking Ted, like that, that wins off the left. He can't feel it on the tee, but they're definitely concerned about it. You know, that back left pin.

Speaking of Scotty and Ted, Randy, can I, let's go there next. Before we move off, Scotty, can I give you just a few, just like stats on the test in the course so far that I think speak to how well things have gone? Again, I want to celebrate this because I want this tournament to be like this going forward and not like the prior versions that we've seen. One, I think we all like to see accuracy favored more often, you know, at the PGA tour level. Again, I'm using my friends of data golf here. They're a little meter of like favors bombers, favors accuracy is pointing definitively towards favoring accuracy, meaning it's it just matters. to be in the fairway so far. It has got a very low variance of scores separated out by putting.

It's only 26% of the variance is explained by putting so far. That's way below the PGA tour average of 36%. So you're seeing more consequence and shots off the T. That number's up from 15% to 22%, which is a massive leap compared to PGA tour average. And approach play is obviously making up a big amount of that as well. The actual names of the leaderboard, I'm not going to bore you with the number part of that.

Like the scale is tipping way towards the players with the most talent. Like this course is identifying top talent. It would be like one of the highest ratings that you would give for a tournament over the course of an entire year right now if the tournament ended right now in terms of the names of the top of the leaderboard. And lastly, there's a big standard deviation of scores so far more than we typically see at TPC Sawgrass and way more than PGA tour average. like sawgrass is already way above PJ tour average and this is even better than PJ

than TBC sawgrass is average. All that to say, man, they're doing about all they can with this golf course and test. And I just salute that. I want to celebrate it. And I want to continue because it's what is going to help elevate this championship, not to that M word, but to be the best possible tournament it can be. I feel like they're on the right track. Sure.

I would agree with you on the leaderboard. No, no. Honestly, that was awesome. I feel that when I look at the leaderboard, except the two main horses have laid an egg, specifically the number one player in the world. Randy, we go to you now. Your favorite player, a guy you ride for,

Scotty Sheffler. Like, will you apologize, one and two, diagnose it for us? What, like, I know you, you might have some, you know, some off the record sourcing. Like, what's going on with Scott? What are you seeing? Yeah, I,

I don't think I'm as nervous as maybe you guys are or other people are. I think what was a little nerve-wracking last week was just how poorly he, you know, his, his approach play really took a step back. But if you look at it this week, like his iron play's good. He's struggling off the tea and the golf channel guys talked about it. He's got a right miss where I think he's used to a left miss. So it seems like he might be fighting the driver a little bit. Fine.

That's, you know, I trust my guy. We'll get that sorted out. He's just a little sloppy around the greens. I can think of two, three putts that hit lips today and missed. He had the short miss on what was that, 16. Just, I think my guy's just out of sorts. And the reason I am not hitting, like, like any type of panic button, I guess, is,

I feel like we were a little bit in this spot last year in 2025. You know, he had just come off a crazy run at the end of 24. Solly's shaking his head. Cody's shaking his head. But I'm saying, I don't care. I'm saying it's a little lull. I mean, he's got to win this year. His results are fine.

I think it's much ado about nothing. I think our guys in a bit of a slum. and Tom Masters and the rest of the year. Didn't totally eject? Yeah. I'd say load up on Scotty right now. This is a buy opportunity. Bye,

by, like Colin. I try to do this before this tournament, Randy. I don't want to be on the wrong side of history here. It's going to turn around quick. This is the first time I've started to feel like a little bit. Okay, this is a little different.

I mean, his results during the Ravioli period last, last year were better than what we have going right now. and Brandel, Brandon pointed, I mean, I have no idea. I mean,

Brindle's segment was sick. Breaking out his swing. I don't know if that's right. When you say result, but what do you mean specifically by that, I guess? Well, I mean,

so around this time last year, he had T-11 at Arnold Palmer, T-20 at the players last year. And like he's, yeah. The ball striking has taken a dip since, and so far this year. Like,

he's putting up approach play numbers that we've not, we're not used to him seeing. Like, he was hitting the ball better during this, this period last year. During the ravioli period.

Ravioli period, correct. We're talking about the ravioli period. Well, I will say this week is on pace to be his best ball striking week. So the worm might be turning. And he's also got three top fives this year, including a win. He did not have that last year during the rabbiased. He's best ball striking week. He's got him 53rd in strokes game Tito Green.

That includes around the green. Well, he's losing around the green. Yeah, where are you getting that? He's losing around the green. I'm talking approach. Approach green. Okay. He's 17.

On the PGA Tour website, he's 15th this week, approaching the green. Or excuse me, he was 15th today, 17th overall. We have competing large models here. It's better, but, you know, I guess when, and I have no idea whether or not to trust Brandel with Scotty's specific swing, but him saying that it looks a foot and a half shorter and across the line, like that. And the face is right to me. Now that he points that out, it looks right to me, but I could also easily see.

see Scotty eviscerating Brandl on swing stuff. But it at least is like the first answer I've seen as to what is going wrong you know and but then you I don't know, then you watch him coming on the stretch. It's absolutely stuff one there. Uh, stuff a couple there

on the finish and you're like, I can't be that far off can he? So, uh, I think you should apologize. This year. Win T3, T4, T12, T24. And we're sitting here talking about how it's awful. It's over. I just, I'm not buying it. All over. Yeah. I'm just.

not buying it. Cody, I saw you shaking your head. So jump in here. Well, yeah, it's definitely not over, but he does, I don't want to use like the driver, uh, Y word, but he clearly, at least for the last two weeks, it's been primarily off the T where he's just, it's so far. The reason why his had a left miss the last two years is because he was so proud that he completely eradicated the right hand side of the golf course. And now he's just so far right. It's crazy. Brandl, you guys mentioned it. one of my favorite falls on Instagram is Chandler Rusk. He runs the account CMR golf team. He also has featured Solly's swing on there before.

You lit me up last year. Do you the guys always talking about people being stuck? Yes, but you learn from it. So he, you know, he is all over this stuff all the time. And he's like, you know, maybe from that clip that Brandl looked at from the range last night. But what he boiled it down to is like, Scott, he's way too over, you know, way to across. he gets stuck he's underneath and then tries to flip it and save it at the bottom and everything's just going dead right and he's like he has this weird natural combination where the footwork and everything

when it's perfectly aligned yeah it's there he's just so far under right now he can't get out of him so no matter how much time he spends out on the range working on that grip sally and trying to master it. He just can't figure it out. But we'll see because I still have tons of faith in him. He is that good of a golfer and it has to be incredibly frustrating. That's why I think last

week and on yesterday's shows, T.C. rightfully so, it's very agitated by Scotty's reactions and how upset he is. But when you're so used to dominating dots off the T-box and then everything else

just gets ratcheted up. So your approach gay gets raptured it up. And then all of a sudden, when you get to those short putts, now all of a sudden, instead of birdies, it's like he has the weight of the world just trying to save everything. It has to be a horrible spot. I thought he's done a good job the last two days of not being bitchy. Spending all this time looking for the golf ball.

It can't really be bitchy? Sure. Can I ask Cody and Tully? I'm going to take all the swing stuff. I accept that, right? I don't know enough about anything. I don't know anything. I don't know anything. I don't know anything. I don't.

Do you trust Scotty that he knows if there is an issue? I guess I trust him. Like if Instagram people are seeing this, I trust him and his team probably have a good idea of maybe what the problems are. And I guess I also trust him to be able to fix it in a shorter amount of time. It might take a few more weeks, you know, whatever that amount of time is. I don't think this is something that's going to linger into this summer and certainly not through the year. I could be wrong.

But I guess I'm like, I trust them to figure it out sooner than later. I mean, I picked him to win this week because I thought that exact thing would happen, Randy. I don't think you can keep this guy down for long. If I was to like really, really, really stretch to come up with probably what's a pretty bad take about the situation, I would say one of the things that's always impressed me the most about Scotty is like we don't hear about his swing. ever. We don't hear what he's working on. We don't hear what goes wrong. We don't, you know, see him laboring about the swing. And that's always been like one of, that's a, that's, that's, that's what I'm like, oh, that's why you're, that's probably why you're so good of golf. You have

the opposite approach to Jordan Speeth of like really breaking things down and just react athletically to things. If I was to stretch to find a flaw in that way, it would be like, hey, when it does go wrong, when it's going wrong, do you know what buttons to press to get it back on track. Like, yeah, he's got Brady Smith. His lifelong coach is like an excellent coach. And I think the answer is that is almost certainly yes, but maybe it is a little bit challenging.

You know, he's freed up by not being technical so much of his, you know, career that when it's time to get technical, is it an easy flip of the switch? Is it just a question I have? That's interesting. Yeah. Randy, I think I'm falling on your side with, and based on evidence from like, Pebble, where it's like, has a really bad Thursday, Friday, like, start to the tournament. And then, God, he was just flashing Sunday at Pebble, you know, just like kind of got it right

back in was going after every flag, like just played awesome and charged up the leaderboard, you know, was too far back. Had a couple of tough bounces on the back nine at Pebble, but it's, you know, it's still, it's not like he's played, played his way out of events, missed cuts, things like that. So, but yes, off the T, he looks like he's struggling. Cody, to your point, whenever these guys, the Instagram guys talk about being stuck, stuck is such a broad term. I'm like, can we get more specific than stuff?

I don't know what stuck means. You got to join the page. Stuck did mean a lot of things. Like, it's just like stuck is just the description for like, yeah, it's a bad swing. Okay, great. From the guy that has the Muchacho bowl. That's more descriptive. The Muchacho ball is throwing the hips.

You know what I'm saying? Like that the chloroform ball is. left. Like it's stuck to be anything. It could be all of those things. Yeah. I mean, it's got to be, I don't know, it's probably more that, I know they were really, really honing in on the grip rain there afterwards. It's got to be, it's got to be more. I would think it's more than that, but maybe it's not. But one thing I do know, especially when it comes to grips those, for more than 75 years golf pride has been trusted by golfers at every level to deliver grips that perform when it matters most from T to green. It's all about

confidence in your hands. Most golfers spend plenty of time thinking about putters. Maybe not enough time thinking about the grip. That's where Golf Pride's all new zero taper. Pudder grip comes in. I believe we have a new zero taper user amongst us. Yes. Randy, I regripped my putter last week.

Personally. Personally, went down in the basement in the daddy's workshop. And I line that sucker up. And I feel really good about it. And I got the zero taper on there. and I'm fired up. And I did some testing. I regripped a few older wedges just to,

I've never done it before. That's smart. And then I was like, I'm going to do the big one. I'm going to do the putter. And so I got the zero taper on. I really like it. I had my,

my Scotty grip was wearing out. And I like the way this one feels. A little, little thicker. I think it's going to bode well for me this season. So it's the taper, zero taper, it joins the popular reverse taper collection

built with a parallel shape that gives you the same feel in both hands, helping promote consistent grip pressure and more repeatable strokes on the greens. It doesn't try to change how you putt. It simply helps you do it more consistently. It's available in medium and large and multiple colors. So there's an option for everyone.

Now wherever golf grips are sold, Golf Pride, the number one grip in golf. All right, Randy, good stuff on Scotty. Sali, we're going to you, Sahith. Two over today, 74. had a long conversation about Sahith last night. Just what, did you,

did you see any of it out there? Like, where, where are we at? So I walked around a lot with my wife today. And we were, we were following that group for just a couple of holes. And we were,

by the time we were at 16, she goes, man, Sawheth really does hit it everywhere, doesn't he? And because we were up, he had it off the tent, off the tent left of 16 and it came down the car path right near us.

And, but it was funny because we were up ahead and we couldn't tell who hit it and it's both Jordan and Sawyth in the group and I was like I know it wasn't Ricky I just don't know which one of the two is the one that hit it over here but listen I'm a massive saw hit fan and believer uh but look it's one of those things where why did I want to get a lot of chatter in about saw hit last night because I didn't know where he'd be after two rounds we didn't know if we'd talk about it tonight I had to I was required to I didn't know if we'd get there I think you challenged me if whether or not he would be top 10 and strokes getting approach at the end of the

week he fell from like second or first i forget what he was to 19th now i'm less confident he will be in the top 10 but that's the beautiful thing about our beautiful boy you never know what you're going to get out of him so a little less of a pressure pressure spot going into uh the weekend now that he's only three under par and in a tie for 23rd but uh i wouldn't top 10 is not out of question for him this week but yeah it's not looking like his week to win the players unfortunately will i apologize when you're doing when you were doing that read and i got to look But I was looking at the top 10 odds and Scotty has a little bit better odds than Speed. And I'm guessing he would have a little bit better odds than Saith too.

Scotty's plus 450. Speeth is plus 490 and Sawhis plus 550. Scottie's plus 450 to win the tournament? No, no, no, the top 10. I was like, Jesus, dude. That would be something. Yeah, that would be something. Like, whoa, that's incredible.

Which is just funny to me. Yeah, plus 450 to top 10 from, yeah, how way back in the Peloton is impressive stuff. Good Lord. You know what, guys, we skipped, we kind of skipped over Cam Young, which I think kind of sums up a little bit of like, I think he's in the Treadstone program, just kind of quiet assassin,

but he's playing really, really good golf. He went out this morning and just handled his business. I picked him to win this week. Cody, come on in here. I know it's going to be a stressful, anxious week for you. I know you ride for Cam. So I'm looking forward to having an anxious weekend with you, brother. Thanks.

Welcome to the party. There's not a lot of, you know, raw, raw that goes on. We just kind of keep it mellow. Just like him. We just, we don't try to rock the boat, okay? But awesome round of golf. I mean, 5-167. The only bogey that he had was on nine.

I like it. I think there's a lot of good things going on right now. He's been playing very well so far this year. It just hasn't really had any peaks. But that's just kind of how Cam is. But you need to buckle end, Neil, because it's going to be a long next two days. Well, what I would say is he had that really awesome rookie year. And it's starting to feel like he's getting back to that.

We're like, whoa, man, this guy just strikes the shit out of it. You know, hitting it close all the time. it's like the rookie year, but with better putting. I don't... Yeah, I don't feel as stressed out when I'm watching him put as I used to. So, you know, the big homies improved. And it's not the most exciting guy out there, but I'm, I root for him. I really do.

I find them to be like kind of weirdly magnetic to watch for such a quiet guy that just goes about his business. I'd say not exciting personality-wise demeanor on the golf course, but exciting as fuck to watch play golf. I mean, he, it's a shit out of it. It's, it's shit of it. And it's, like, it's dramatic. Like, there's just a lot going on when he gets going. And it, it, he fills it up in a hurry.

And I think there is some, uh, I don't know, a little bit of a, a buzz in the golf world when Cam Young is, is doing things. The, uh, the drive on 18 today would be a good example of that. So I like had a great round going. It just got he, he, he probably cleared the water on 18 off right on the corner by what, two yards, Cody. I feel like we were both in. slack like whoa cam you know no unnecessary like it's not a line that you needed needed to take but uh sure like why not

let's let's just send it buddy uh the hard thing about being part of the cam young fan club is that you know usually we don't get a lot of TV time so we spend the most amount of time complaining to the broadcast like where's cam at man we made like five birdies and none of you show them I think we're going to get a lot of TV time this weekend so we'll see if if we have more you know supporters coming out of this or not

but it is electric, Sally. It's not just the power. He's one of the few guys that like shaping it and will go after pins, whether they're on the left or right. He loves moving the ball and can just absolutely hoist it up there. We do have pairings tomorrow as well.

Ludwig and Zander are going to be the last group at 235. Cam and Corey Connors are going to be at 225. JT. Seppstrakha, Little Rider Cup rematch from 2023, at 215. Lee Hodges, Jacob Bridgman at 205, Mad McNeely, Austin, Smotherman, 155, Thorpe Bjoranson Fleetwood, 140,

Harmon Hovlin, Henley and Fitzpatrick, Chad Ramee and Sahith. I was hoping Jordan and Sahith would get back out together, but I don't think they're allowed to do that for three days. I might spontaneously combust. That would be bad. Akshay Brooks, 1145, that's a good one. Sam Burns, Chris Goddra up at 1040.

That's an early one. Who's Scottie got? He's got Siwu Kim tomorrow. Dallas. comfy. Yeah. Dallas match there. Seamus Powell will be on his own at 815.

So you can probably be at Sundelli by about 11 probably if you really wanted to. It's a nice day. Sali, take me out to the course today. Any, any, what did you see? Just, listen, just to set this up, Sally out with Hannah and kind of having a personal day, not inside the ropes, just a true fan experience. experienced. Where we start, where we finish?

Spoiled. I've learned the routes around TPC Sawgrass with the, you know, hugging that rope line on the inside and be able to cut around. You realize how often you get stopped. On a busy day like today, I mean, again, it was like, they sold out tickets today. This was, I got, I got some review notes from Hannah as well. This was her 27th Players Championship that she'd been to. Wow.

So she'd never seen it like today in terms of crowd. and I had not either in terms of just general buzz on the ground. It's not a rowdy crowd. Like I only saw one group of like college kids that was like clearly like close to blackout drunk. You know, not a lot of people just getting sloshed out there, but just the whole town was out having a good time. Under new management,

just are they flying a plane around the top that says under new management? It's because it sounds like it. New vibes down here, man. New vibes down here. So it was it was tough sledding the self-inservative. was not great. It was tough to get a connection out there. It was very fun social time,

but I can't turn the golf tournament tracking part of my brain off. So I was dying, not being able to, you know, check scores or watch any of what was going on around the rest of the course. You know, you just see like a little bit here and a little bit there. And golf tournaments are not meant to be attended

so you can closely track everything that is going on. And that was a refresher. Well, where'd you hang out? What was like, what was the post up spot? Yeah, we caught. I like catching guys when they come off 15. and watch them play 16, 17, 18, because there's always good viewing around all of those spots.

So we watched, you know, kind of Jordan and Sahith and their group go through that part. But, you know, then you get stuck talking to somebody. Then all of a sudden, you know, then you're looking for food. And then we caught ourselves on the front nine. Can I just, you want to give you, I asked Hannah to just come up with as many review notes

for the day as she possibly could. And she has some takes if you'll allow me to read this. Oh, my God. Love this. And I do. I should have led with these. she said people have stepped up their fashion from any previous year it's it's master's light out there in terms of of course she's checking out what the what the ladies are wearing and rompers

you know dress dresses things like that for sure said it was master's light and impressive for jacksonville we're not the most fashion forward uh place uh in the country down here so people were being thoughtful about about their fit in the gallery that's that's what that was what she had to say yes uh again saw it all over the place almost hit us on 16 in the rough again on two, just doesn't want to play boring golf. She said no cell service, but she did want to clarify she has Verizon, not AT&T,

and was not able to access the Tor app regularly. She hesitated to do this one, but six and seven are some of her favorite holes. Feels remote, quiet, most of the walk in the shade, the palm trees and the oak trees and the mix of all those together. You can kind of hear 17. Yeah, and the buzz and the distance.

It is one of the best spots. Max Homa, she said, has the best golf bag design on tour. The cobra bags this week do have a cool like cobra juice, like orange juice, Florida vibe to it. We don't really have oranges up here, but, you know, that's kind of the vibe. But Florida does. I get, yeah, I see what we're doing.

This one, we had the weirdest fan interaction that we've ever encountered together, which was, we're watching Max and Max, we're on the fifth green. Max Rolls in like a long birdie put on five. And, you know, we're hooting and hollering and we're clapping. And somebody comes up and, like, has their phone out. And there's like a teenage girls in front of us. And he's like got his phone like angled down at the ground almost like he's. And it was just kind of a weird moment.

Like, what are you doing? Like we're all clapping right after this birdie. What's going on here? And I was like, is he taking a picture? Like these girls' feet right in front of us. Come find he's taking like an upward facing selfie of me, her, and him without like saying hello. like asking for a picture. And he took it and just goes, thanks and walked off.

That was a, that was a never game. They would feel like a piece of meat. In a home game. That happens in England. They are so aggressive with the selfies. They'll at least usually ask though for your credit. It was not so much in the United States of America. As uncomfortable solids, I'm sure that that made you feel.

that's how every single selfie Randy takes us because he's so taller than, you know, he's so much bigger than everybody else. So everything is just that weird up nostril shot for him. So he just, did he sneak the camera around the side of you? Like how did this work? And then it's right in front of me. But again, we're in the middle of applauding. Like he just made this birdie.

And like, I'm just like, you notice. Why is this guy like taking a picture of this girl's feet? Like, this is super weird. And like, then I, then I realize he's taking a selfie of us with her included in. It was, it was not great. So, uh, a pretty. And then you just scampered away. But yeah, scampered away.

I didn't even say anything. Please don't do that. We'd love to take pictures. You just got to be kind of a person about it. I'm a big name in town guy. You know, like, let's, we got to have a conversation. A little bit about yourself. Yeah, come on.

We can't just just dine and dash for the selfie. What are we doing here? On the opposite end of the spectrum, we did have several people come say hello, even a couple nest members out there that had, that were traveling with. Neil, inside the, you know, on the grounds there with their nest member gifts this year, which was, of course, the Fannie Pack. They got it on. Yeah, we got a couple of people to pose for photos.

They wanted to be on the show tonight, and we have a couple of those gentlemen here as well. We rocked them, Randy. I mean, that's great. How, how functional is that gift, huh? Keep your valuables tight. Keep them close by. That's good stuff, man. That warms my heart.

I love it. Lastly, yes. Thought maybe two many tickets. for Friday. Too crowded. Couldn't see a lot of golf in the afternoon and we got a little claustrophobic in there. We're like, do we should we just go on watch on TV? Yeah, I think we should. As fun as it was, it was, it was hard to catch

a lot of golf today. But that's, uh, that's, like, where choke points, like anything on the T, like 16T, 18 T, probably can't see anything. I'm guessing you can see a good, those are good, those are good like mounds and stuff. Around the greens were just tough to see anything, you know, going in. And even, I mean, 17 was just, I mean, it's great. It's a buzz. It's awesome. But like, it's just hard to,

hard to move around. Moving around traffic was tough, but it's also great to see this event thriving, and I'm also just maybe old now, and I didn't want to fight crowds as much as I would have in my 20s. Well, good for you, probably being out with the people, really roughen it, you know, outside the ropes.

I'm sure you're going to get a ton of sympathy in the comments section on viewing lines and things like that. Y'all don't realize how hard we work inside the ropes, to hustle to see as much golf as we possibly do. To stay down? I'm quick to hit a knee. Anytime I'm in the ropes, it's like I'm trying to get as low as possible.

Do not want to wreck anyone's view. That's, that's well said. Now, this one, this is from Thursday. Sali, then we've got a picture up here on screen. Solly, not following the arm's length on the road. I'm 100% following within arms. I'm trying to be right standing right in front of somebody. I mean,

the Marshall behind you looks flabbergasted. He's got his bucket hat off. He doesn't know what to do with you. It looks like you're in there giving advice. They wouldn't listen to me. The whole round, Randy. I'm trying to point them around the golf course. They're the ones over by the rope line here.

I am not at fault here. They should be in the fair way, okay? Randy, it looks like I saw a meme floating around of Vivek out in the Kings with the hands on the hips. It's always got a little bit of that stance going on here. Yeah, yeah. It's not happy with the situation. Yeah, my guy Vivek does not have much to be happy about. But he can probably blame his own daughter for that.

Yeah. I mean, okay, if you don't have any any thrills and delights today. Anything you saw on TV that just tickled you? I, oh, the Comcast business graphic looks like a six-year-old did it. On the grass. On the grass on the tee box is that delighted me just because, like, how unsurious it looked. That was one.

I got to say, too, this was my first time really watching a golf tournament, and I watched a lot of today. Like ever? Is this your first time? No, no, no. Well, ever, with a little baby on my chest for most of the day. So what a great way to watch a golf tournament. She was fast asleep.

You are now the target market, officially the target market. You might take a quick cat nap, you know, wake up to an optimum commercial. Who knows? I got a quick little delight there at one point. I forget what hole it was exactly. JT was down by the water and I forget what comment.

They were like, oh, did he slip? There was like a bit like a split second of like, is he going to fall in? I thought I might. Which would save the Foxy pick and the Colin. I mean, you would be. It would have totally redeemed it. You would have a total legend, Randy. But yeah, I think honestly, Neil, to your point, a lot of the thrills and delights are

when like I'm not really paying attention to the golf for whatever reason. And I felt like the golf today was just like it was really good. So I'm sorry to disappoint, but I just didn't have a ton in my notebook, unfortunately. I was like the golf was like like good golf is boring. And it's like, okay, well, I got it. Yeah, I mean, Lundy just bawled out. Like I don't, you know, I feel un, I don't know, uncertified to talk about it sometimes where I'm like, yeah, I mean, it's just, guys just bawled out.

Like, it's not like, nothing really happened. I don't know how it looked easy. Yeah. There was something to say, though, about this tournament that I was there having a great time enjoying being outside. And I was like, still had FOMO about watching it on TV. Because one is the best, one of the better television products that, you know, NBC Golf Channel puts forth for a tournament in terms of commercial interruptions and the team

and everything. And like, I just like watching the action from all over this course. And when you're only in one place, you can't watch it all is like a, it's a, not a feeling you have year round. I feel like I have it for Bay Hill. Let me just put it that way. Yeah. Yeah.

I got a couple, couple things to tackle if you don't like, Cody, unless you want to, you have something pressing here. Yeah, I'm just going to say guys who did not ball out. Oh, yeah. Miss the cut.

I have a few notes there too. Go ahead, Neil. No, no, you got it. Well, just I had notable ejections. I think we do need to call it Tom Hogi.

Hodge coin, the nine he had on seven. That included a snap hook. A top and a shank. That's a bingo there. You know, I love, love Hogi. So tough scene for him, but he will not be playing the weekend. Got a shout out, Grazerman.

Max, he had the lead on the front nine Thursdays. He got at the five under. He finished, I believe he finished plus nine or he was, I don't know if he was done when I checked this, but ended up losing four strokes to the field. That's just a tough Vajigas there, Sali. Not a full Camillo, but, but, I mean, have the lead on the front nine, kind of cruising and then just eject like that is tough.

Looks like Keegan poor play. I believe he had a nine today blaming still gutted from the from the Ryder Cup. No, Keegan had a great day. He made the cut. Yeah. Keegan shot 66 today to make the cut. He's sitting T35. He did.

He did have some comments. Just read the teleprompter. I'm sorry about that. About still being heartbroken from the Ryder Cup. And, you know, almost as if that was the cause was as poor play recently. And yeah, that's, that's special, uh, if you ask me in terms of, oh, sorry, say what you really want to say here. Come on, because I think it's a good point.

Yeah, your horrible captaincy cost of the team US, the rider cup, but you didn't do like the most basic stuff that is required of a captain. And like now all, you know, you didn't have to play the flirting game as to whether not you're going to be on the team the whole time. Should have been focused on the course set up, getting to know your players, figuring out what the pairings were going to be at matching personalities, figuring out a way to communicate how the stats plan would work and what players would be playing together

and why they would be playing together and inspiring the team and doing all the things that are required of a captain to win on home soil, which is not that difficult, honestly, to do anymore. You didn't do any of that. Now you're saying, you know, playing the card of, I'm heartbroken for this and it's caused my bad play. Don't have time for it. Don't have time.

Do not have time. Take it away, Randy. Get it out of your. Max. Make me off your list. I love that. Unsubscribe me from your newsletter, please. just to say a few things there,

Sully, thank you very much for that rundown. I will say other notables missed the cut. Lucas Glover went 7077, not good today. Jake Knapp been very hot to start this year, 75, 72. Same thing with Harry Hall,

76, 72. Gary Woodland, awesome write-ups on him earlier in the week about his struggle with PTSD. I know that doesn't, it's an uncomfortable topic, you know? Oh, my God, that was uncomfortable. I'll say this, and the reason why I wanted to bring it up here,

and we might talk a little bit more about it on Sunday, as somebody who also struggles with PTSD, it's very difficult. And I understand when you go down that route, other people don't really know how to approach you about it. So I appreciate Gary being as open and honest and vulnerable as he has been, and it's awesome to hear the tour support that he's getting to make his life a little bit easier as he goes through this journey. Lowry, 76, 73, still struggling from that epic, epic collapse, I would say, a couple weeks ago.

And then Joel Damon, 7773. I thought maybe a little spark there with, you know, the team back together, the boys vibed in and Pontevira, but just didn't really have it. One other I'd call out is Harry, no, we've talked about Harry all, Benjamin E. Booms, 77. 78 an ejection today. That's tough for for Benjamin E. And then... The guy, H.E. is not flushing it at the moment.

Yeah, it was 18th hole today. His ninth hole of the day. It didn't go so well. I believe he made an 8 there. So that's tough. And then he sees guys, Davis Riley, not trending. He's been all over Davis Riley saying he's about to 5.

to 79. Yeah. hate to see that. I mean, there's not many big names that are not around for this weekend, though. I mean, obviously more Kawa with the injury, but, I mean, I'm trying to find the top-rated guy on the data golf list that did not make the cut this week. And it's Jake Knapp, I think, at 15. Ludwig's around. Bob McIntyre's around Fitzpatrick.

Hadecki make the cut. Yeah. Sibu Kim, Cameron, Yon. Young, Zander Schoffley, Tommy Fleetwood, Russell, Henley, Roy, Macquarie, John, Rom's not there, obviously, and Scotty Sheffle, all around for the weekend. Pretty impressive. You know, if I will,

only because it was like this weird mini-ejection mid-round, but he ended up making three birdies in his last four holes was Kepka. We didn't really talk about, but, you know, he had, what, six, seven birdies today, and then a couple

of bad doubles and another bogey for a, he shot 70 but man he he had some stretches there where i was like okay brooks like it's nice to have you back like 13 14 double double animal style otherwise looking pretty good got wet on 13 and then terrible three put on 14 but yeah i'll be interested what what he does this weekend showing some signs who did i say he was playing with tomorrow oh figure this out because i might uh I mean, the big news feels like switch to the mallet podcast. They're talking about it on the broadcast.

And he does seem to be rolling the potato a little bit better than he was on the West Coast. Admittedly for him, he was like, I hate POA. So he's back in Florida. A little more comfy, Randy. Yeah. Well, that's good to be comfy. It's not playing great golf, but he's playing good enough for it to be interesting. Brooks is very uninteresting when he's playing poorly.

And it's not very fun to follow. and you're right Luddy is at 12 under solely what's the lead gonna be tomorrow exactly give me 16 now give me 14 no 15 I think I think he shoots 300 tomorrow

yeah yeah give me 15 was that an auction what were you doing I don't know I was thinking I was thinking it through I was going live just welcome to the fun house everyone so you think you're intervie the leader

Ludwig at 15 for Neil. Yeah. Yeah, I'm going with I like 15, right in the middle. Solly's right there with him? Yeah. Okay, Randy. I kind of like 13, 14. I don't necessarily think Lundy's going to be the leader. I'm going to stick

by my rally killing 63 today. I could see Zander, Cam, or JT. Yeah. Have a week. Yeah, but 15 still like six under's not you know, something like there's going to be six unders tomorrow. For someone like Cam

you know, he could go shoot $6.00. 15 feels like the number for me. A lot of golf left. A lot of golf left. As we moved towards Rappi, I want to give a shout out. I've been watching much live from. I caught Brandl and McGinley

going at it last night. Just an all-time bit. If you haven't recorded or whatnot, if you could find it of just getting in a distance debate. And Brandel has a line in there. Well, Paul, you say there's no Corey Pavens out here right now, but I would say, I venture to say, Scotty Sheffler is Corey Pavin of this era.

Works it works at both ways better than Pavin ever did. And McGilley's like, yeah, he hits it 320 yards. He goes, he hits it 300 yards, Brandle. Like, it made no sense. And they just traded Jarbs back and forth. Barb's back and forth. What is it? Jarbs.

Yeah. Charbs. Okay. Traded Jarves. Jabs or barbs. Jabs or barbs, either one. Combined it in the jarbs. They were going back and forth that it just, you know, Braydon, non-sequitur after non-sequitur. It was not meant for a lie from when they're up against a break. And it was just good TV. I wish I was watching. I love, no one loves Brandel and in his, his whole routine. Sometimes I think he's just doing it because he's bored.

But I sometimes I don't, I feel like he's disrespectful to McGinley sometimes. Oh, for sure. You know what I'm saying? I'm just like, come on, man. Like, don't do that. And McGilley, sometimes he stands up for himself. Sometimes he doesn't. I don't know.

Sometimes it just kisses me off. But it's, it's good TV. No matter what, it's always good TV. Have you guys caught any of Smiley's new life from segments? I haven't. I have not. Is he standing in for Johnson Wagner? Yeah, it's very much.

I really like Smiley. I think he's going to be a great. on live from i just wish that they found maybe something uh something original for smiley to do because johnson's bit was like very johnson yeah i should have retired that one you know an imitation of somebody that was very good you know yeah that's without having seen it i could see exactly uh what you're talking i i know this was mentioned in our internal slack and i i felt the same way but it's speaking of smiley and i like smiley too like nothing against him personally but like if we're We're going to treat the players as if we want it to be a major, we can't come at with the 5 o'clock happy hour on the T.

With Barstow kids. Yeah. The happy hour has to have a player that's been in the field or at the top of leader borders. Yeah. Otherwise, it's just two other commentators. Yeah, it just felt like it was heating up. The action was good. And it was like, wait a second.

Why are we going over here? Yeah. What are we doing? It, uh, that can be a good change of environment at the cognizant. And it's not. it's not the same with the players unless you have like give me somebody that that had a great morning round out there that you know is there for 20 minutes talking golf and calling the shots that that's different than those two just kind of chucking it up there so i i agree there

furek again i said this last night awesome addition uh today i think he he sounded a lot more confident in his calls was mixing it up way more but uh i hope it can not only continues this weekend and I hope there's a future because he's so good at it. I think there is. I think there's an opening there for sure. And I think you struggle to find Smith with the pedigree that he has and the relationships with all the players from a lot of rider cups and captaining a lot of these players. And just the knowledge of golf and the ability to communicate that, like sign me up.

Well, did I hear, though, like with on the happy hour, like, Kiz is going to be up in the booth. Are we going to have five guys up there? I think they just keep going, six or seven. Maybe. See how many we can stuff in there. Like we're going to have Furik and Kiz up there now and then Hicks is going to get back in them. I mean,

it's just like it's a new voice like every hour. It feels like they're just like they're running like hockey. There's a lot of people. I'm like Steve Sands. All right. Great. I don't have anything. I like Steve Sands.

But I'm like, wait, wait, where Terry Gannon? Like it's just like, whoa, where everybody's so many. So many guys. The difference, I think there's just still so much confusion because we're so used to golf channel NBC crossover because they were the exact same. I think the separation now, I think kids is like just an NBC body. Like, so he's only going to be weekend.

Terry bounces back and forth. Some of them do, but like, I don't think we're going to see like Sands and Noda are kind of gone. I don't think we're going to see them the rest of the weekend. Because they're with Versaunt. Well, we'll see them on Golf Channel. The Golf Channel, I mean, yeah, they're not going to like be on NBC. It spun off into Versaunt, my hitters that I sold the block party. Is it Versaunt or Versaunt or Versaunt?

It's Versaunt. No, it's good. No, sorry. I've missed, you know, I've missed some stuff. God, he was feeling himself, too. Could be. I mean, it could be for Sant, Versant, Versant, the tea is silent. It's actually French. Hey, did you see, speaking of pronunciation, you see the, the, uh, uh, E. N's press conference, uh, with the Saints. Apparently, I mean, his name is supposed to be pronounced A, A, Chan. A, yeah. Uh, so listen, I mean, it seems like pronunciation is in the eye of the beholder. at this point. Like, you tell me how you get A-chan out of that.

But if he says he wants it to be A-chan, then I can call it Versa-N. How about that? How about that, day-to-day, Neil, pronunciations are pretty far down on my list of things I tend to worry about. You know what? The pronunciation police can shove it as far as I'm concerned. Except it is O's, not Oz. Like, get that shit straight.

Don't forget that. That's right into the record, Neil.
