Starting point is 00:00:00 I'm going to be the right club today. Yeah. That's better than most. How about him? That is better than most. Better than most. Expect anything different. Ladies and gentlemen, Scotty Sheffler is one of the green jacket, Sali is here, T.C. is here.
Starting point is 00:00:35 Hark. Hark. You guys better recognize. I want Daps. DJ Pies here, hello DJ. The only person I'm happier for is Tron, then I am for Scotty. I mean, just an unbelievable day, Tron. Congratulations, man. This is about you.
Starting point is 00:00:49 Thank you. Big Randy is here. He is going to be issuing a statement, I believe, of some kind, and he's going to be retiring for the night, hello, and Neil's going to be taking his place after that, but hello, Big Randy. Hello, thank you for allowing me the opportunity. Before we do get to that, TC,
Starting point is 00:01:03 I want you to, there's going to be a lot of flexing, I think, tonight,, I want you to, you know, there's gonna be a lot of flexing I think tonight, but I want you to flex a little bit about some new sticks. Maybe you have in your bag and how that's going for you. Oh my gosh. Well, yeah, I shot 70 to hit a crale. Parts 69. Mostly the equipment stuff as well. I was before that.
Starting point is 00:01:17 Well, I know, but I shot a important comment at it. It was like my fourth or fifth round with a new equipment. I put a set of combo, I did my own combo set. I got three rogue ST pros, four, five, six, and then I blended them with a Apex TCB set, seven, eight, nine pitching wedge, and I have an A wedge that may or may not be making its way into the bag.
Starting point is 00:01:43 I love them. The turf interaction over here in Scotland is unbelievable. The you would, the, oh, we've been singing the praises of the you would. Oh, the phrase turf interaction is so good. It's good. That's going in my permanent lexicon.
Starting point is 00:01:56 The you would, I got it really, really, I love the shaffing on my three wood right now. The new three wood is unreal. And the new driver, it's really good. It's all unwir, I will say I brought five putters on the trip, I brought two lefty putters and three righty putters, I'm gonna put lefty tomorrow. It's not going well.
Starting point is 00:02:16 But Tee-Dee Green, I think I had 14 green today. And we're killing it. It's because it's, I love the new irons. They're awesome. Shout out to our friends at Calaway Golf. You can find a more information about all those clubs TC just mentioned at calaway golf.com.
Starting point is 00:02:33 Big Randy, do you want to get us started here with the statement here? I'd love to. Okay. I appreciate you guys. I appreciate the tournament committee. I appreciate everybody allowing me time. I've prepared just a quick statement.
Starting point is 00:02:44 First, he will not be taking questions. And I will not be taking questions on advice on my council. Even though we're in Herb-Colors' Board. I wanna congratulate Skychefler on a tremendous Wow. That's so cool. It was so big of you, baby. It was well deserved.
Starting point is 00:03:01 He bested a field of, I don't know how many really good golfers So hats off to him five or six Some of the top ten no showed But that's you know, I I said he didn't pass my I test as the number one golfer in the world You know that that doesn't look good right now. I think there was some nuance there that wasn't properly conveyed, mostly my fault, I'm sure. And so I just want to say sorry to Scott, his parents, his wife, a Meredith, his kids, his grandkids, the whole Sheffler family.
Starting point is 00:03:40 I'm sorry for doubting you. I look forward to the next however many months to see where this goes. And yeah, I'm gonna step away for a little bit. It's not a suspension, but we're pausing big-radity. We're pausing. We're gonna take a break now. So with that said, I'd like to bring in my associate to complete the show.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Before we do that, can we just mention one thing, how close were you on this Scottish Eiffel Tower miscut bet this week? I won't be answering questions Thank you, and that's Bush League if you'd asked you knew you knew it was gonna be absolutely you're real mute Mon you know It's how he said months deals cried like the Charlie Rive or Blue Curtain video right now He said months not yours. He said months
Starting point is 00:04:21 That's chicken shit Randy what a day. you guys have a fun time watching the masters? That's, I had a blast. Maybe that was a setting. Maybe that was the action, I don't know, but that was a very memorable day for me. You guys were, I don't know. All the rory stuff, all the fluffy cotton candy popcorn. Get out of here.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Get out. That was the most fun. That was the first time all week we felt like the rush of like 30 different things happening in 25 minutes, all at once. CBS never really actually got caught up after that crazy run when Rory started making his move. It was, it was, the day had everything,
Starting point is 00:04:55 it had a guy make a run and make it probably somewhat, we can talk about the decision to go at the pin on 12. We had Sheffler kind of, you know, scruffing it a bit in the beginning. Cam goes hunting in the beginning, gets within one. Sheffler chips in, Rory's doing shit all over the golf course. It was happening. It was all happening.
Starting point is 00:05:14 I don't know if I ever actually truly believe Rory could do it, but it kind of felt like, at least fake, maybe he could do it. He could get close. Minwoo Lee showed up to the party, had six or seven drinks at like 40 minutes. And they all flacked out. 30, 40 for him.
Starting point is 00:05:29 Yeah. Shout out to the cat, of course, on that one. Of course, of course. T.C. First off, hello everyone. I would like to point out how hyped the barget, the jigger and get when Rory was doing Rory things. Oh my gosh.
Starting point is 00:05:44 I mean, how hyped do people get like an instant concert? That's the analogy. That's such a bad joke. We got Saur Scottie. Yeah, Saur Scottie. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no shot win. Sure, you're right. You're right. All right, cool. So, all right, Roy, hats off to Roy for getting within five. It was a bit of a celebration of life, and we had a good time.
Starting point is 00:06:11 We're gonna talk for three hours. Roy couldn't break part of the Scotties. Let's talk about Scotties. We gotta talk about Scotties. We gotta talk about Scotties. The world number one has one four times in six starts, including his first major. Truly, I know you through Dustin had a five shot lead.
Starting point is 00:06:26 Recently, I know Spieth. It's a fake masters. It's really hard for me to think of a straight up more deserving champion. Another guy that just went out and did all of it. I mean, it was, I don't want to say never in doubt, but kind of, right? I mean, it was like, who possibly didn't think
Starting point is 00:06:43 he was going to hold on? Well, when it was in doubt, he just did something to make up for it immediately. I mean, it was like on 17, it was, it was, it was past being in doubt at that point, but gets in trouble and steps up, like leaves himself a perfect number and just hits a wedge to a foot.
Starting point is 00:06:55 And it's like, dude, he just, he did that on repeat. He, I made a huge par save putt on 11, makes another huge par save around 12. Those putst do not hit the edges of the holes at all. They go in the center of the hole. It was it's just it's just no doubters. They got a little you got a little squirtle. It was awesome. Four point eight. That was amazing. It was sweet. I made it even better. It sounded like one of those bad idea tweets that always goes out. It's like off. I'm up by five. I'm definitely four point me 18 just for fun. And he actually did it. And then so the way he played the 13th hole two, tactically laying up right in front of the creek,
Starting point is 00:07:26 chipping on in a good spot in this episode. That was one of the tactically laying up in front of, like you're gonna dapp him for. I mean, he's up by a million, like, oh, that was one of the worst layups I've ever seen. He hit too close there. Oh, I hit it like, he hit it like 40 yards too close. He chipped it to like eight feet.
Starting point is 00:07:43 I know, man. It was not a difficult shot. That's not a, that's not why you hit that, that layup went way too far. Why would you challenge the Creek? It didn't even reach the Creek. That was not the point. But it was like 10 yards too close.
Starting point is 00:07:55 It's either hit it, you like 200 yards and get within 40 or hit it like 115 to leave yourself. That's not one of the shots that I'm gonna lot him for. Honestly, my day starts with his chip shot at number one. Right? Yeah. You have a guy sitting around, never won a major before, all the expectations, all the
Starting point is 00:08:13 pressure, and he misses the green at number one. He has this incredible, ridiculous looking chip shot and knocks it to stone dead. That's the guy that, when you see someone kick the master's way, like that's, that's how it starts, right? And, and Scotty pretty bravely, pretty bravely show that that's not how the day was going to go. We like that. And we like that take. Yeah, thank you. Thank you for that. I'd like to go around the table. What do you think? The best shot that Scotty hit all day was? Well, let's just go through his round a little bit, right? Because I think that's, I think it's better to pick one. Like pick a shot.
Starting point is 00:08:49 What was the iconic shot? I mean, the chip in, the chip in on three was, that was an out of body. That was going 10 or 12. Yeah, that was the round. That was a shot for me. That was definitely on the list. That was that your selection.
Starting point is 00:09:01 Yeah, that was me. It was a historic shot. PC. Oh my gosh, there's a lot of different ways that you guys would think of. I'm, to me, it's got to be an iron shot where, because he hit his iron so freaking well the last three days, the iron into seventh,
Starting point is 00:09:17 the iron into nine, the iron into 14. I mean, all, like, those are the shots that, like, he's put himself in not a great spot off the tee and then just removes any sort of doubt or any sort of even, even question mark at all and just, just goes and does a damn thing and in turns, hey, maybe he can scratch out a par here to holy shit, he's making birdie. I think the most deflating shot and again, it was a weird, because it's not like I was rooting against Scotty, right? Like I just wanted, you know,
Starting point is 00:09:49 it's hard to get interesting, right? But it's that big of a lead, it's like, shit, I'm kind of rooting against you in a way. But the one that kind of like deflated me the most was the one on seven. Or it's just like, okay, weird hole, weird shit happens, you get a weird bounce, you're a little long,
Starting point is 00:10:01 you're a little short, and he just spins it back to, you know, what, three feet. Oh, it's gonna be another birdie. Like, fuck, man. But I think by that point, Cam had birdied, I think he cam birdie three of the first seven, lost a shot, Scotty, right? And it's still like, okay, now that's probably,
Starting point is 00:10:16 it's probably isn't gonna happen. Well, and it got to the point where, when he flipped over to the back, it was, I was trying to bring up the speed comparison to 2016 because if you go back, like no one thought that was gonna happen. He was a little squirrely on that day, but he was coming off the match this winter year before,
Starting point is 00:10:30 huge lead on the back nine on Sunday. It was gonna take something truly screwy to happen for not to win it. And that's exactly how I felt going. Where is the chink in the armor here? I don't see him giving away a five shot lead or whatever he had when he turned. And that was exactly the scenario I thought of.
Starting point is 00:10:46 And the guy just went out and did the damn thing and the way that speed did not obviously go out and do it. But that's the thing you see is like, when you go back and look at the scorecard, you can look at all the shots and all that. You go out there and look at the scorecard, clean card on the front. And it felt like he shot 39 for a while, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:00 Yeah, and I mean, because of the par on two and the par on eight Feels like like those feel like bogies, right and then Insane Yeah, the ship on four was great the shit the the shot in a five. Yeah, that was that was maybe the best irony hit all day I'm wondering if how much of an effect we were all around the same age, you know, when this happened. Norman in 96, like, the whole, like, build up to that round, the collapse,
Starting point is 00:11:31 the meltdown, if that makes us view, I think it makes me view, like, somebody's sleeping on the lead so much differently. I'm, I'm like, panicked for the person sleeping on the lead and having to wait until 240 to tee off. And like, to handle that on the... It's a very formative tournament for you, right? Where in your head, you're like,
Starting point is 00:11:47 no, no, this is what happens at the masters. Yes, exactly. I guess it hasn't really happened. That was the first tournament. That was the first masters I watched the final round. Yeah, because I can't think of a tournament before that where I remember somebody collapsing. And there's probably multiple,
Starting point is 00:12:02 but I don't, you know, I don't have a personal memory of that. So that is very formative for all of us. Yeah, so when you watch somebody who's young, just go out and like, take the damn thing, I think that's probably why I was so captivated with speed when he did age 21. I'm like, no, no, like, I got this,
Starting point is 00:12:16 and I got that shit dog. Move on to the next one, it's mine. And that's not normal. No, that's what that reminded me of was speed-winning it in 2015. I also, this is not a bit. I don't want to get there yet, but we've got to give a shout out to his Iron Shadow 15 as well. Which I don't know why I did that.
Starting point is 00:12:36 I appreciated him doing that. It seemed like an outrageous, ridiculous play, but you pulled it off. It was sweet. I think the idea was like, all right, if I lay it up and then go in the water, that's worst-case scenario for me. Totally. So if I hit it in one of I think the idea was like, all right, if I lay it up and then go in the water, that's worst case scenario for me. So if I hit it in one of the waters on this shot, and you know, then I'm hitting four somewhere.
Starting point is 00:12:51 And chip in like I'm chip in. Yeah, and you can basically, if it doesn't draw, it's going in the bunker. Yeah, right. And then you got plenty of green to work with. From me, T.C., you called it out earlier. The iron he hit into 14 was the one, it because it almost
Starting point is 00:13:06 yeah, rolled off the back and but he's playing the hill it was like I was like oh no he blew it. No, he did that's gonna roll right. I almost went in it was like oh we oh man. Like it's like he's spring it a little bit off the tee or he's he's hot and cold with the chipping and I thought it was a spot And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good.
Starting point is 00:13:26 And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good.
Starting point is 00:13:34 And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good.
Starting point is 00:13:42 And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. And I thought that was good. last year. It can happen. And then he just put the nail in the coffin. The second shot on five though, like I just remember thinking on that one, like holy shit man, like this is like he was, he was not, like he had kind of kind of faded that drive a little bit. He was out on the outside of the dog leg. I just remember watching, like that was a 200 yard iron in there too.
Starting point is 00:14:04 Like the toughest pin on that green. Like right over that mound and Cam comes up just short and Scotty's over the mound and yeah, misses the putt. But that to me was like, that was a major championship, like just a bonafide savage shot there. Sorry. I've got the app going. The app is too good. The app is incredible. Does this, what is, okay, so we kind of joked with the over
Starting point is 00:14:28 under eight and a half majors last night for Scotty. What is the number? Is it two and a half? Yeah, I think two and a half for any young players is a pretty aspirational number. All right. More majors right now. Scotty or more a collar. Total or going forward. Total or a collar was got to. Yeah. I would say going forward. It's easy to get caught up in the. That's what I'm not going to do tonight. I'm not going to do tonight.
Starting point is 00:14:55 That's what I played this game before. I would say total is the only way to measure it, right? Like they're because it's hard to say like, oh, from now, like starting now, I would say at the end, you know, when they go to the Champions Tour, who's an easy answer. I think if it's, if it's total, because more, I mean, one major lead is enormous. But Warikawa, I mean, he's, he's a, he's a track man. Go for it. Right. And I think that's like DJ, we're going to get to that. We're going to have a passion.
Starting point is 00:15:20 Sure. DJ is getting ready to get back to some stuff here. Our friend, Jed, son of a tech, he said free of you. Reminding you about that. Three of you, some stuff here. Our friend, Jed, sent a text. He said, I was going to read this out loud as well. He said, Sheffler is a 460cc fraud who got away with murder for 72 holes. Needs a white bronco to go along with his green jacket. I think his point is that he tends to hit it a little bit all over the map and gets a little help by technology. However, I think Scotty would be a good golfer
Starting point is 00:15:45 at DT. I think it would get it in the hole in any other way. He's a shot maker. Yeah. And so nothing against Scotty, but I do think he had a crucial moment in tournament. He got some help on number three. And I'm, we won't talk about it.
Starting point is 00:15:58 I do think. But I got a problem with the drop behind the scoreboard. There shouldn't be TIO because those aren't temporary scoreboards. They're all fine. Well, TC, I've been going at it. I've been just fighting them off in the corner that they, those, I've been, it's 50-50,
Starting point is 00:16:12 are they temporary and they're not temporary? We don't know. It doesn't matter. I don't think that the course should play easier for professionals. Grandstands, scoreboards, whatever. You hit a bad shot like that. You should take a stroke and get line of sight.
Starting point is 00:16:26 That's fine. You want to take line of sight, take it, or play the balls at lies. I'll also say that was a, that was a, I mean, Cam was one back right there. That was a, and then he, and then Scottie chipped in to his credit. He, that was, I think that was the shot
Starting point is 00:16:40 that Scott probably, or the rules changed. That Cam probably wishes he had back. The chip shot on three. Was the chip change that can probably wishes he had back. The chip shot on three was the chip shot on three because then he's probably playing differently when he gets to 12. I mean, I just want a reversal of the men's not the chip shot on three. The approach shot on three. Also, at a gust that's kind of philosophical like like trees are temporary and moveable objects. I know that's my point.
Starting point is 00:17:03 They're moving that shit every year. Scoreboards and you tell me that's my point. They're moving that shit every year. You can't go score boards and you tell me that's temporary in the pine tree next to it's not like that's, that's not, that's the one. It's concrete in the ground. You can't leave it on that. No, I can't. I just think that's bullshit.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Like if you miss left on three, it should be like missing left on two. What is that, Dej? I think they call that the Delta counter or the Delta R counter. Yeah, it should be boned over there. Delta. Delta.
Starting point is 00:17:27 Unless you ask for a red coat. Unless you're a diamond. Of course, then you can maybe get relief. What's these guys are diamonds though? What my friend is trying to say, I think, is it's an impressive win for Scotty. It is. No, no, I'm not holding it against him, but somebody brought up that, you know, there's a, did he get any help?
Starting point is 00:17:44 Is he blowing it all over the yard? Yeah, he is. And I thought that that was a moment where, you know, did he get any help? Is he blowing it all over the yard? Yeah, he is. And I thought that that was a moment where, you know, he got lucky and he deserved it. He took advantage of the rules. I'm not criticizing Scotty. I'm criticizing the rule. Let me very clear about that.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Unpacked this one for me if you guys good. Because I was discussing this. I shouldn't even be saying this, attorney client privilege. I was discussing this with Randy over some pints last night. Everybody loves spieth, right? Spieth hits it all over the map. Spieth hits these amazing chip shots. client privilege. I was discussing this with Randy over some pints last night. Everybody loves spieth, right? Spieth hits it all over the map, spieth hits these amazing chip shots, he's getting it up and down from everywhere, he's doing all this outrageous stuff, he's
Starting point is 00:18:13 a young guy from Texas. What's the difference? Why has Scotty not grabbed the same electricity as our boy wonder? Scotty's not as... Scotty wasn wasn't if I may I think Scottie wasn't the heir apparent right like spieth coming out was like a tour pro from the time he was 15 years old and I think that is a little bit of almost which is funny because they were very like their amateur careers are pretty similar with Scottie Scottie just battled the injuries in the latter part of his college career and all that I think the big thing with the speed is that he's everything's on his sleeve, right? It's you see you've lived like,
Starting point is 00:18:50 carry his sleep through him where I think the guy that's probably the best cop to speed right now is Cam. Huh? No, that's like unbelievable iron player. Oh, I thought you meant like emotionally. No, like connection. It's like the way they play the game where you're like, you're other all in or all out. And you feel like they can make birdie from anywhere, but also like he's going to hit this
Starting point is 00:19:10 drive off the planet every six holes. You know, I would, I would say speed. It's, it's very easy to forget coming out. I got age 21. Like it's, it's fucking ridiculous. What do you do? He wins, wins the Masters, wins the US Open is a a shot of the playoff right here at the old course and Finish the second at Whistling like that was that was age like we have if we get to the end of this year
Starting point is 00:19:30 And we got like four huge experiences with Sheffler. I think it's a different conversation That's a little bit of what I'm getting at you is like we were talking about before we fired up the cameras is Part of the reason I think why Scotty doesn't connect with like the vast vast majority And I would very much put myself in this category Is because before today like he hadn't done it right like he'd won really good PJ tour events any PJ tour player You talk to is gonna say this guy rules. He's really freaking good or TC of course. I think you mentioned it once or twice but the to really be embraced like you have to have done it, at least once, right?
Starting point is 00:20:06 And I think we said the same thing about Hideki last year. Like when Hideki gets on the leaderboard this year, he's a different guy than he was, you know, 18 months ago. I thought I'd really go harder at the PGA tour. On this one. No, I think a no comment is almost worse than going at it. Because today, what I'm getting at is this kind of just I think a no comment is almost worse than going at it. Because today, what I'm getting at is this kind of just illustrates the difference
Starting point is 00:20:30 between winning on the PJ tour and the difference between winning a major. I won three of the last five events including and people are kind of still like, yeah, that's interesting. They're shrugging a little bit. Yeah, like he's cool. He might still be a fluke or whatever.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Like juxtaposed. And then he wins a major and it's like he's he cool. He like he might still be a fluke or whatever. Like like juxtaposed what and then he went in and then he went to major and it's like, oh shit dude. I was gonna say King made juxtaposed how he was coming in with what you just said like he's won three of his last five. He got to world number one and what he's gonna look like at the US open or the PGA rather when he shows up to PGA people are like, oh, Scotty, Scotty's my dude. Yeah, the guy won the Master's, man.
Starting point is 00:21:05 You see that? That was amazing. Scotty's gonna be a predator at Southern Hills. It, you can't emphasize enough how ridiculous it is. Not only the hot ass run into it, but to come in number one with this hot ass run. It's running throughout it. It's hot sweaty ass off the pick up basketball.
Starting point is 00:21:22 Voting, I hate you. Like icy hot. That run. That's the pizza pick up basketball. Moody. I do. Like icy hot. That runs. That's the thing to that nature. You couldn't have put more expectations on him. Like, you know, he couldn't have raised the bar anymore, yet it didn't feel like it got to that level. And he still goes out and does it as world number one.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Like not many dudes. So many to become world number one. Right before they go to the pasta and go back it up. You know, he saw you. I'll see you are after you win one turn. I mean, I don't know, but not only one turn, home world number one right before they go to the US to go back it up. You know, you saw still you are after you won one turn. I mean, I don't know, but not only won't play match play, like the most exhausting one there is. Yeah, you know, exhausted.
Starting point is 00:21:54 You know, exhausted. We were after walked just walking around cradle today. It's great. You know what? We got shut out Ted Scott for sure. We do. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:22:04 All of it. If you want to, you know, stunt and flex on, on, on Scotty, I'd like to stunt on those prayers we sent up for Ted Scott, they've been answered. They haven't been answered in a minute. Many of people are saying the pray for Ted Scott led to pay Ted Scott. Exactly. I, I think the speed, Shaffler comparison at first, I was like, where are we going with that? I think that's a really interesting question. Yes, and I think it's timing with
Starting point is 00:22:28 Totally like you said speed coming up when there's a little bit of a vacuum I think there's a lot more like who's the guy right now? There's a lot more talent and I think Shephler's a little bit more He's he's reserved. He doesn't have the charisma and and that's no offense to him It's just that speed when you ask Steve the question and press conference at 2021, he's ready to give you like a really, really thoughtful answer. And then also I think at Augusta,
Starting point is 00:22:56 Steve had a dominance that I don't think, Shephard, it never felt, even though Steve was blown all over the yard, it felt like he was in control. Well, I think he also had the hype machine before he showed up. It was gonna say something like that. The whole engine was warmed up, ready to go,
Starting point is 00:23:10 and then he did it. He also had a close call at 20. He was runner up to Bubba the year before he won. Like, there was some build up there. So I- He's not win four. I feel like he's a four time man. I know, whereas Scott is-
Starting point is 00:23:20 He's the only one three. Scott is also like, he's moving it off the tee. Like, Spieth is is I would say Scotty has more immense physical talents for sure both on and off the golf course obviously pick up basketball baseball and stuff but like it's it's it's one of those things where I think I think you look at Scotty and you're like like you know what like Scotty's got more of the mold of almost a dust and Johnson like he looks like a freaking like you know what? Scotty's got more of the mold of almost a dust and Johnson. Like he looks like a freaking, like,
Starting point is 00:23:47 I know he looks like he's 50, but he also looks like he's like the guy that can stand in and throw a 50 yard spiral. We've said that about speed a lot where like, there's this faux relatability about him, right? Where it's like, oh, that's what it looks like when I play. I do relate to Scotty with the, and a homegrown swing and and the way whales on it. Like he's like the guy that's like at the driving range. Like I'm gonna honestly Scotty reminds me of you a lot.
Starting point is 00:24:16 Like you and this is a compliment for you and a compliment to Scotty. Like you didn't play like in high school. You didn't play basketball for three years, and then the coach asked you to walk, like come back to play basketball your senior year, and you're in the starting lineup, in like six to eight weeks, and you're in your three-in-d guy,
Starting point is 00:24:35 and it's like, dude, like you're just a fucking athlete, right? There's a natural thing with Scotty, like he feels like a natural athlete, and but, speed felt like the golden boy. Right, there's a difference there. It's like the natural versus the chosen one or something. And I wanna, I wanna, I need to go deep, bro.
Starting point is 00:24:55 Well, I think there's, I think you could have- He's still like the captain of the team. Yes. And I think you could have the same, and it's honestly among the more fascinating conversations, but you have the same conversation with like, why speed and not more color, why speak and not more, Kala, why speak and not hovelin', why speak and not rom, right?
Starting point is 00:25:09 Like, it's interesting, but it's also like, yo, I can't really describe it, but some guys make you feel it, and some guys don't, which almost kind of brings us to Rory, right? Where it's like, not anybody can... It stops right there. Nobody else can do what,
Starting point is 00:25:23 make people feel it, Rory made him feel today. One other thing too is, Speed made miles of putts. Yeah, and there's something emotionally endearing about making a ton of putts. Maybe, yeah. That you're not expected to make and you kind of conjure up this underdog.
Starting point is 00:25:41 Scottie doesn't ever have long-gloves. He almost makes it boring with the chip. Yeah. Like nobody realized how like I go back to Thursday, he hit it over the green on 11. And he had like, he was in jail and he gets up and down. Like he hit 40 yards over the green on 11 and just made it look easy. Like, oh, I hit it to eight feet and made it an eight footer, which is not, you're right. It's not magnetic. It's like, oh, and then you just kind of shrugged and went on his way. It was also a bad shirt today.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Like that's not a deer. Although, I mean, that's the same thing with speed. Like speed, like speed. Yeah, the underarm stuff, like a six-year-old. Yeah, that's not good either. Golf season is rolling along and trafficking sports book and official betting operator, the PGA Tour,

Starting point is 00:27:45 I brought my hair in Scotland. I'm gonna try to get my hair changed working.

Starting point is 00:28:05 That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it.
Starting point is 00:28:13 That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it.
Starting point is 00:28:21 That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it.

That's cup. That's right. We tried to make, we made a great parlay for you guys. We picked four guys to make the cut. We told you guys, we, all these guys are gonna make the cut. They did. We draft Kings boosted it and I hope some people got in on it
Starting point is 00:28:32 because I took some money. I took some debt financing out a few weeks back. I got some pouches to pay off here coming up. It's not good. It's not good. I feel like, I feel like Randy may have some, some collateralized debt obligation. He does
Starting point is 00:28:45 Based on your stuff too. We got to get to this quote that Cody is piping in here at Kyle Porter tweeted this Sheffler said he cried like a baby this morning because he was so stressed out she said he told his wife He didn't think he was ready for the moment Jesus that changes things. Whoa There's probably the media center after that. That's why he had the left. There was, again, whoa. That's kind of what I'm saying is like, that's what I'm saying about like panicking
Starting point is 00:29:10 about the final round of the master. But then he hits it over the green on one and he just knocks it to stone dead. And it's like, that's fucking insane to be able to do that. Cry like a baby this morning. That is another level of like, like I don't get that sense from being a final group. I'm not like, oh man, this guy is out of his league. It doesn't,
Starting point is 00:29:28 it's not showing through. It's the duck on the lake. Yeah. An analogy that we're hearing too much of lately. Patel and underneath like, I guess what are you seeing? What a year for Highland Park. The underdog, the scrappy underdog story. Matt Stafford. Unreal. You know what I am? I'm flustered by that. It's not what I felt like I just watched.
Starting point is 00:29:48 I felt like it was a coronation. That's super interesting. Cryed like a baby didn't think he was ready for the moment. He even said that. Who even respects the game so much? He gave a couple back on the 18th green. That was the first time. Seriously.
Starting point is 00:30:00 He was technically not ready for that moment. Yeah. And his defense. I don't need those. I don't need those. You're gonna talk about Cam? I'd love to. Yeah, it is. I don't need does. I don't need does. Just, you know, talk about Cam. I'd love to. Yeah, let's do it.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Although, I just want to say, like, if the corn fairy tour is in your area, like go watch it, like go out to, we're in Savannah, you know, a couple of years ago, like, this was, I think, three years ago. Scotty, like, was fighting to get his tour card three years ago. And he's like, in my opinion, he was one of the best players in the world. And then he gets his tour card and he comes out and he keeps it. And then he's, you know, he's winning four of the last six tournaments. Like the guys playing out there, like, you're going to see some dudes. They're going to win majors in the next five years if you go out to a corn fairy event.
Starting point is 00:30:43 So there's plenty of people who shit on like the aq school was better It was that's that's the pure test. No these guys like the sample size a big a year-long job interview And like only the good ones get through, you know, it's like it's it's I'm with you. Yeah, it's awesome like and and and they play like the the courses are getting better the You know, they're like shit like in Wichita, if you live in Kansas City or you know, Oakland or San Francisco, go out to Stoneright, like there's some cool spots. Just go watch this stuff because like every couple of years a guy like Scotty Schuffler comes through and it's it's worth saying yeah I saw that guy before he has PGA tour card. Same with like Zalatoris who spent a good amount of time on the corn fairy tour.
Starting point is 00:31:25 And usually the guys that are gonna make it kind of stick out a little bit. And there's not that, like, you know, like even a guy like Xalatoris, before he, before he, you know, basically had non-member earnings to get his card, like he still had to, he was still on the corn fairy tour. Gotta go earn it.
Starting point is 00:31:43 He's getting shit up there. So, you know, I was to turn it over to Cam, but I think we need to talk about the runner up in this event. That's one Rod Rigo, Mackle Roy. They love you, big man. I'm not going to accept any Roy Blasting tonight. I will not accept it. Roy fucking rock.
Starting point is 00:32:00 He killed him. He sure shot you. You were a day. Come on. Doing the same peer thing again. You were out to race. Doing it last night. Like, I'm not, I don't want to talk about Rory last night.
Starting point is 00:32:10 No, that's bullshit. That's not clearly not listening. That's not Rory. I defended Rory last night. No, Rory was, he left him out there and round one. He battled back. You can't say you don't want to talk about him because he's going to let you down. And now you want to talk about him because he didn't let me down.
Starting point is 00:32:25 He didn't let me down. Exactly. I don't know. You're picking and choosing. Round one, I was disappointed. And then round two, I said, you know what, he battled today. Round two. Round two.
Starting point is 00:32:34 It could have been the thing that where he just uninspiredly misses the cut or is toiling away in 50-50. So you shot what? 72, 72, 73, 73, 73, 63, 65. I have no idea what he shot, based on what you got to say. 73, 73, 71, 65. No idea what he shot, based on what you got to say. 73, 73, 71, 64. Best score of the day by three shots today. I mean, it was electric.
Starting point is 00:32:52 He left a couple out there, which is gonna happen. It was funny how people got, people got it. That's just intense. People got on him immediately of like, oh, this is so typical right, I'm not birdie 15. Like dude, the guy fucking shot 64 today. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:33:07 He almost birdie 15 too. That was a pretty good putt from the French. It was. And again, I'm not trying to stoke the flames. I thought that's a fascinating wed shot with like when you have to make a birdie, that was a dividing line wed shot. And he didn't hit it, right?
Starting point is 00:33:21 He was really freaking close. That was close. He thought he was gonna spin it off his friend. Where that pin is, you have to go past the pin, but you can't go over it. The first bounce has to be great. He had a horrible drive, so you had to hit that wedge shot. And that's cool.
Starting point is 00:33:35 It was cool to see that he got punished for a bad drive. That was fun. I agree. Are you being serious or not? Yeah, you're looking at me like you're dunking at me, but I agree with you. I'm saying, but if if you had a good drive, you probably would have hit the same shot.
Starting point is 00:33:48 That was my point. Okay, that's a horrible thing. No, because every- Let's move on now. No, we're sticking on, we're sticking on Roy for now. It's such a bad faith argument. It was, that was not your best, you know. Well, let's rest our case, we'll come back in.
Starting point is 00:34:00 Like that whole plate, that's not- Let's not- I agree. It was nice today. It was nice today. Thank you. Oh, imagine that. There wasn't an atypical 20 mile an hour wind blowing That's not typically today. I agree. It was nice today. It was nice today. Thank you. Oh, imagine that. There wasn't an atypical 20 mile an hour wind blowing out of the west today. You
Starting point is 00:34:10 tried to this man tried to argue that it was that 15 was playing. He was enjoying the way 15 was playing up until. There was a variety. Right. Okay. Back to Rory. What kind of lease on life does this give us in terms of if Rory goes 15 years, 15 years of
Starting point is 00:34:25 If Rory goes out in 29, so fucking in man, gotta felt so full me one alive, fully twice, fully 15 times, I'm, I'm done guys, I'm done. That's not true. I was there for the ride today. It was, it was incredible. It was, it was, it was, it was. It was sick. No, I'm weighing on Rory. Can I take me with you? So we rented. We had the gym. We had the we're obviously here in Scotland. We've mentioned a couple times, but if you're this is your first time listening this week, he was the needle. We had the the jigger into ourselves. We have a group of 36 guys, nest members, listeners and gals all over here for a Scotland trip. We had the the whole jigger in to ourselves. You wanna hear what it sounds like
Starting point is 00:35:07 when Rory makes an eagle on Sunday. I'm a jigger! Ah! There's good stuff. Nobody else gets that, man. Nobody gets that. Except the cat. Except the cat.
Starting point is 00:35:20 The cat would have gotten that. Maybe spieth. End spieth. Yeah. It was, I don't mean to turn this in speed yeah it uh... it was kind of i don't mean to turn this in hamster and it was kind of frustrating to follow because everyone that was watching feature groups was tweeting all about everything because cb has just lost track of rory somehow even after he had identified himself as a as a contender
Starting point is 00:35:37 in the tournament i think it it's fair to say look was it very i think the most his uh... uh... probability of winning got up to today was 5% not a lot. Listen, of course, but it was like point one. It was like point one percent when the day started. So for him to say also after that was the most fun he's ever had. Direct quote. Yeah. That's the most fun I've had on the golf course, which is we all have a little.
Starting point is 00:36:00 Sure. We have a tendency to have a walk off a golf course after a great day and be like that's the most fun I've ever had I know I've done it. I'll probably do it on this trip But like that's inspiring to hear from from that guy and I'm wondering does it change whether I don't know What you guys thought before is we're gonna win a master's but does today change any of that? I think he wins a matter how old is right now 34 33 33 maybe yeah, 33, 3, 3, 2, 3, 2, yeah. I think he wins one. Yes, 100%.
Starting point is 00:36:27 It weirdly does change my mind. And I know this is over, you know, I said I wasn't gonna do the recency bias thing, but I am desperate, desperate, desperate that he felt that feeling today and was just like, oh, that's fucking me. That's who I am, man. I need to be that guy.
Starting point is 00:36:42 It's Sergio. It's Sergio. It's just, it's gonna torture him for be that guy. It's a whole lot of co-vines. It's just, it's gonna torture him for a while and then he's gonna get one. It's gonna be, it's all context. Like that's why everyone's cheering so loud for him in the bar because there's scar tissue.
Starting point is 00:36:54 It's awesome and then he's gonna fucking come through. It's gonna be, I gotta fear. I'm gonna be there for it. I gotta theory though, Dej. I think the cycle that he kinda goes through at Augusta is pretty similar to like what happened at Berkdale, when JP was basically like, what are you doing?
Starting point is 00:37:09 What the fuck are you doing? You're Roy fucking Mackle Roy. And today he woke up and decided to be Roy fucking Mackle. He carried himself with a whole different swagger. He was bouncing. You could see the iron shots he was hitting. It was not trying to guide anything. He's like, I'm gonna mash on this shot right now,
Starting point is 00:37:25 and I'm gonna go make a birdie. And I think he can walk out today and have that feeling, and then like a year is gonna go by again. So tall. So tall. And he's gonna want it even more next year, and when you come out, it's so hard to do what he did today on a Thursday, and that's like his problem.
Starting point is 00:37:40 And he doesn't get off the bus, and until he figures out a way to address that, I think we're gonna be due for, we're to need it to happen in a way like this. Dejue, who said to Monti, so they fucking love you big man? I don't remember, that's a long story. It's like, it's like, Rory needs like a pep talk before every round, so we just hit him in the face and say... Maybe just show him that clip. Show him the bad awkward whipping the club with out of the bunker.
Starting point is 00:38:07 And it's kind of what you were saying about 2014. Just show him Valhalla, man. Just show him. Somebody time down the chair and make him watch him from 2012 to 2014. 2012. Like Roy needs to be more than our sisters. You were the kid.
Starting point is 00:38:23 You could, that's you right there. Just be that guy. and wear those pattern shirts where the sleeves are different colors. That's what you need to be doing. Solid question for you. I also, can I get one more theory in for one second? You know when Tiger to have the chip in on 16 and the high five was Stevie and how bad it was
Starting point is 00:38:39 and it made him make two bogies after it. I'm worried about him starting bogie bogie next year because that celebration out of that bunker is like like it looked like somebody that had never celebrated before. It's really interesting. I don't know what that club throw was. He was just over club. It was all just like, oh, it was authentic. And then he made a hairy rake even more of the bunker. I was worried Scotty was going to hit it right where the where the club hit in the bunker. Uh, sorry. Like do you think so, you know, like in granted, you probably haven't diagnosed this yet, but, but from, you know, Rory's round one round to this year or in previous years, is it, is it too much patience? Is it too much, is it too deliberate? Is he, is I don't feel like he's going after pins and all that? Like what's the, I think it's from a strategy perspective, is he laying back too much
Starting point is 00:39:25 and not being himself? I don't think it's strategy as much as it is. This is a different, this is a different golf tournament today than the previous three days. And this suits him. This is great, this is pin your ears back and go. And this is a different golf tournament than the other three majors as well. Yes. And this golf course required the beginning days, especially days one and two this year, require a different level of precision to get to the harder pins. The pins were just easier today, right?
Starting point is 00:39:52 So some funnel pins, if you will. It's not an easy golf course today, but you can get away with not being less than precise. I just don't trust Rory to hit an eight iron to the top right shelf of the sixth green consistently. And know, and constantly get it in the right spots on the more difficult pins. When the pins are easy, I can picture it. That's kind of why we do this every year. Like, I can see it if he gets an eagle on two, three is gettable.
Starting point is 00:40:16 Four is not that difficult. You can get kind of running downhill and that's what works for him. He's a microwave man. I don't know if he heats up. You're like, oh man. He's like JR Smith. He truly, truly. It's great. And that. I just microwave, man. I give you heat up, you're like, oh man. He's like JR Smith, truly, truly. It's great. And that's why it's so exciting.
Starting point is 00:40:29 Big fan, Axel, some way in on that. Which I, this is, I totally have big take and thought here, but I just, in my head, when like, where he's got to go do like a five and a half hour threesome, I just don't think that works for him. Like when he can get out and run like he did today, a Tussum's is just a different style of golf. I feel like he's less time sitting around thinking.
Starting point is 00:40:49 It's just less methodical and it just goes. Shout out to the PGL. One thing, I think that like one of these years, it's gonna be monsoon. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and it's gonna be soaked. Kind of like expectations are gonna be too big. But then, you're gonna get the right draw. It's gonna be soaked. Kind of expectations are gonna be too big. But then, he's gonna get the right draw. It's gonna clear up and the courses,
Starting point is 00:41:09 they're gonna do like, you know, lift clean up place or something and it's gonna clear up and like, he's not gonna have to be a mutter, but the course is gonna be long and soft and all that and he's gonna feed and he's gonna win. I think he said it's his best score. I don't know if he meant today or if he meant for the week.
Starting point is 00:41:27 Best round ever to masters. He's never shot 64. He's won off the course record today. We gotta talk about this now though. The shot for the US viewers is very obvious what happens. Kim Smith is doing aim point on the 13th green and CBS is not showing. Rory who was already in second place at the time, finished out on 18.
Starting point is 00:41:48 They showed him on delay, basically, all day. A enormous roar comes, just burrowing down the hill. It is very obvious in that corner as to what just happened and found out just because, well, I don't want to spoil anything here, but something incredible has just happened. Like literally the only way you can spoil it is by saying that exact thing. And then, like, Nance doesn't know what to do. So finally, they go run over to it,
Starting point is 00:42:11 and like, they've just given away what happens. And it was just totally bungled. It was horrible. It was so nice watching Sky. And I know it's largely the same shots, but watching Sky with no sound. It was a treat. And even like,
Starting point is 00:42:27 because I was getting ready to dapp up CBS until I heard all this, because I'm like, the pictures were so freaking good. Yeah. That drone shot left of 13 was awesome. Like they kept showing that kind of up the creek and I'd never seen that angle before.
Starting point is 00:42:44 There was just so many cool shots that, that like they did such a good job subjectively this year with all the angles and different looks at the course and the drones and I feel like they had 20 Venice cams out there. The imagery is incredible. Yeah, and then, you know, and then shout out to Sky2, like Nick Dirty and Butch and Radar and Rich Beam.
Starting point is 00:43:08 It's so freaking good. Yeah. Yeah, this was not as much. I mean, business idea for Masters.com, if they want to make a premium channel, I would pay for a kind of a live view of Nance and Fowdo, like behind them to see Fowdo. Just like say that and stop talking.
Starting point is 00:43:26 And Nance, dude, stop talking. Stop talking. Blue it. You're a chap, you're not a bloke, okay. You stink. I mean, this was a, how would Nance react to that? Man. This was not a golf Twitter thing today.
Starting point is 00:43:39 This was circulating in like normal sports Twitter today, how bad CBS kind of bangles. Which we've been all over them for incredible improvements. They've made regular events at PGA tour events. And it's just felt like they kind of dropped the ball today on Masters. It feels like it's tougher at the Masters to give these moments their proper space
Starting point is 00:43:58 and also feel like you have a cadence to the broadcast, right? Cody, any thoughts here? No, I just want to give a quick shout out again to the Masters, the best content team in the game. Excuse me, I wasn't talking over here for a long time. That's the best content team in the game, the best internet, the best social follows, and it's amazing to sit there and watch
Starting point is 00:44:20 what they produce themselves to include all the live featured stuff versus what their partner puts out. It's crazy. You want to add on top of that, I know Doddy probably got her fours crossed, but horrible clubbing there on Sheffler. I couldn't believe that she called Nine Iron there when it clearly wasn't going to be the four.
Starting point is 00:44:40 I think that was a visual, yeah. So, for people that don't know when you're the caddy flashes a sign at a spotter and if you go four down, would be nine iron and four up would be four iron. And either she crossed it or the caddy may have crossed it as well. It might not have been her fault, but they were teeing it up as in, you know, he's trying to lay it up in a good spot.
Starting point is 00:44:59 And so they didn't know that he was, they also didn't know Sheffler was laying up on 13. They thought he was going for it on 13, and it was very obvious he was holding a shorter iron and was not gonna be going for it. So both of those shots, so I'm with two of the most important shots of the tournament. While the ball's in the air, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:45:14 wait, is he doing what they said he's doing or not? And that's just inexcusable really. It's, you can't drop the ball like that in the biggest tournament of the year. And I know I didn't even hear it because I think I don't listen to when Fowdo talks, but he said something. There's something about shooting stars and something on 18 instead of his, you know, welcome to the new age. It was, uh, here comes a little sausage himself walking up the fairway. It was tough. All the bots are back, Cody. Bots are back. I know. Not good. Can we talk about Cam? Yeah. I think he deserves
Starting point is 00:45:47 both some criticism and some praise. I think there's a there's a yeah. Like you said, it's it's positive and negative. I think let's start with the negative because I think there's a lot of positive to take away from this. I think negatively like there's a trend here of you know, Memphis. Even sawgrass of of, you know, like, hey, man, like you made that, like, your aggressive play won it for you, but it also, like, some of that aggressive play wasn't necessary because you put yourself in really shitty spot, like on 18 or on, you know, on 17,
Starting point is 00:46:20 and he's definitely put the left miss in play. Big time. At times, but I think that was the thing that kind of crushed me today was, the left miss kind of, like the left that sweeping draw they like to play kind of abandoned him in the biggest spots on 12, for instance,
Starting point is 00:46:40 which playing a draw in there seems kind of tough in and of itself, but then, you know, trying to draw it on 13 and it, you know, hangs it out to the right. There was a few of those today. Nine, for instance, you know, it was just, it was, it was one of those things where it's like, I worry that he was pressing the pedal, I know he's chasing and everything and it's like you have one or two mentalities but I wish there was like a first gear for chasing and a second gear for chasing
Starting point is 00:47:09 and sometimes you need to be in that first gear and because it felt like he was pressing a little bit too hard and it's like man, like two shots, three shots isn't crazy, like that's a two shot swing on one hole. I will defend going at the pen on 12. I think he made a bad swing. It's just a bad swing. I think he made a decision He birdies 11, which is very unlikely and savage bird. He's three back with seven holes to play in Scotty playing well So like you're not if you want to win you go win it You you got to stuff it on that shot and that it's a it's a test
Starting point is 00:47:41 And if he failed the test, but like he made a decision of like, you know, a bogey, a par, and a bogey might mean the same thing here and a triple might mean the same thing here. And I need a two. I need a two to put some pressure on him. Because if he stuffs that, then Scottie's got to hit the shot.
Starting point is 00:47:56 And you know, now it's really essentially a two shot lead. That changes Scottie shot a lot. And that is his best chance to win the golf tournament. And he didn't execute that one. So I'll defend that, but he was sloppy. I just never seen him get like that, just but hurt honestly. He was just, he was kind of club, near club slamming just frustrated. I didn't think it was, I thought it was passion. I kind of was like, I was, I was, I was kind of boiled over, yeah, yeah, he boiled over because he wanted it so bad. And I know
Starting point is 00:48:24 what you mean by like, sulking though a little bit It's not like really host so it wasn't though. It wasn't like It was like angry. It wasn't Butter was the wrong word for me angry and it's like no, don't do that But I'm also like I feel you dog. I I just like want to call out though. He started birdie birdie He's one shot back the birdie, birdie. He's one shot back. It's a birdie on one, right?
Starting point is 00:48:47 I mean, dude, it was just like, it was, yeah. The start was, it was a dream start, and we get to three and he hits a bad tee shot. Even on just, Flips, man, and it's like, God, are you kidding me? Like, it was almost too good to be true. That's how I felt on three.
Starting point is 00:49:00 I was like, man, this is going really, really well. But two is a perfect example of that razor's edge where he still made birdie. He put it in that front bunker and got up and down. But even there, like he is, he's going for it, man. Like he's not, he's not playing the slope all up and down the left. Like he was on two or on four, even.
Starting point is 00:49:22 Like that shot was right at the flag. That was six inches short of being like almost in the hole. And I think it's like. I'm attracted to that kind of goal. Like I like he's putting his chips on the fucking table. Yes. And I think it's important context to realize also that, you know, less than a month ago,
Starting point is 00:49:36 he won the biggest person golf history by firing right at the flag. Yes. On the most famous like part three in golf. So when you step up to 12, I get how in the back of his mind, it's like, yeah, I think I'm just gonna do that again. Like you're gonna lose some, you're gonna win some, you're gonna lose some playing like that,
Starting point is 00:49:50 but you're like, you're gonna gain my respect bottom line. And it's also, if you wanna get close to the pin on 12, it's a different shot than the right pin on 17 TPC, because like if you aim, kinda center and try to fade it back there, that's not the shot. Like if you want to get it close, you got to like draw one in there. And you can over cook it.
Starting point is 00:50:08 That's why no one does that. And if you ever cook it, you're in the back bunker and you're kind of screwed. And if it doesn't draw, you're in the water. But like that's the, I would say that's the best chance of getting one close rather than like cutting one back there. But I mean, you rarely rarely rarely see right handers. Stuff one back.
Starting point is 00:50:22 He's full send, you know, which I respect that. He's just even just it's just a triple. It was a bit of when keeping it real goes wrong. Yeah, a little bit. Yeah, even to triple 12, you know, left the short on 13. I'm like, oh shit, like that's that's going to be tough
Starting point is 00:50:39 down 13. And then like even on 10, he hits it into the woods. Horrible T-Shot. He struggled off the tee. He chips it out. And then, I mean, he struggled off the tee down the stretch at the players too, right? Like it was negative.69 strokes gain off the tee
Starting point is 00:50:56 this whole for the event. He lost the tournament on the tee. The more short grass they put in around here, probably the better for him too. It'll, it'll, but, but like on 10, he missed the putt, but he's, you know, 100 yards out, hits the wedge shot to like five feet and it was a diabolical slider down the hill,
Starting point is 00:51:15 but even just to do that, like that, like immense stones to almost get up and down for par on 10 from, and then birdie 11, he triples 12 and you're kind of, and he's par on 10 from, and then birdie 11, he triples 12 and you're kind of, and he's furious on 13, bogus 14. And he comes back and like, I respect the shit out of him. Birdie 15, birdie 16, par 17, par 18. And like, like he didn't shut it down.
Starting point is 00:51:36 He didn't collapse. He fought till the end. He fought for that top five. He's a fucking dog, man. And like, he didn't win and I'm bummed about it, but I like I don't like he he pushed his chips in. He went for the win on 12 and he didn't get it done. He's raised his floor so much like he's I felt like he's really struggled today and he
Starting point is 00:51:57 finished T three. The masters like it felt like he had a career tournament to finish T two with DJ one. And this feels like he kind of kind of not spit the bit, but didn't have his best stuff to to finish this one and finish T2 with DJ1. And this feels like he kind of, kind of not spit the bit, but didn't have his best stuff to finish this when I finished T3. He's like 70. Yeah, you know, you're like,
Starting point is 00:52:10 oh, now look out. Like, he's coming back next year. That's one of my favorite things about the masters, obviously too, is like, I love that he's now in that kind of current day pantheon of like, oh man, Augusta, you gotta watch this guy, this guy, and this guy, and Cam Smith,
Starting point is 00:52:24 Cam always plays well with it. Top of that list. He shot 73 today with a triple, and it feels like a massive, massive failure. And it couldn't hit driver, and the Holy Triple was not a driver hole. Yeah. And I think he's the kind of guy
Starting point is 00:52:37 where this is gonna burn him, man. Like he's gonna, he's gonna, like he works his ass off anyway, and this is gonna go back, this is more fuel in the fire. I know we have two more majors before it, and I know my eye keeps drifting out the window here. And it's, it's literally looking at the road, literally looking at the road hole right now,
Starting point is 00:52:56 but holy fuck, I can't wait for the open this year. It's gonna be incredible. Like just watching this, like, yo, give me Sheffler, Rory, and Cam again. And Cat at the open. And the Cat. The Cat, Rory and Cam again. And Cat at the open and the cat. The cat, the cat's gonna win. And listen Southern Hills and Brooklyn are gonna be awesome as well but.
Starting point is 00:53:11 No offense to anyone. I think those, their skill sets and Lowry also, right? And Moorakawa and Zalatoris like dude, that was, that was a really good golf tournament and we got a lot of good ones still left on the counter this year. Yeah, Sally shout out to you for the gallery. Well done, well done.
Starting point is 00:53:27 Fair play, Sally, fair play. Well, I think you, why wasn't the top Irish? I don't want, I don't want you to thank me for that or shout me out. I want you guys to either apologize or think the stats, the data golf, just the strokes gained. I want you to apologize to strokes gained, or shout out to strokes gained.
Starting point is 00:53:44 I'm in on the strokes gained. I want you to apologize to strokes gained or shout out to strokes gained. I'm in on the strokes game. I borrow your password every week. Yeah, me too. Yeah, he was, he, I feel like he in a different world, he could have won this golf tournament this week. He played some, he said he's played some of the best golf of his life this week and he's been playing really, really good. And he is a major champion and it would make sense if he won another one. I think Brookline is going to be really good course for him. Yeah. More a cow, sneaky solo fifth with 500 par 67 today. Do you want to talk about? Let's, can we talk about the cat actually first?
Starting point is 00:54:16 Of course. I feel like we need to address the cat. The cat did exactly what I told you guys the cat was going to do. Made the cut. He stumbled on Saturday, ran out of gas, but it was a massive W. It was, I guess a little unexpected. You're right, you told us that.
Starting point is 00:54:34 You told us that. You're absolutely right. He walk it up. Again, I can't tell if you're taking the piss out of me. I think that one is taking the piss. I am taking the piss out of you. Walking I think that one is taking the piss. I am taking the piss out of you. Walking off 18 green, shooting 78, 78 on the weekend in the blood red shirt and the Venice came following him.
Starting point is 00:54:52 And the big-ass smile on his face was just like, pretty cool. Dude, yeah, I mean, yeah, I know he struggled, but you can lose track for a second, but like, for what he has described, and when he did that interview with Henny at Golf Digest, about what is recovery process has been like and how much he misses the feeling of a well-struck shot.
Starting point is 00:55:11 I would go lay outside in the grass just because I was so bored and missing all the things that I always took for granted. For him to walk off having competed 72 holes and make it to the weekend and be a hell of a lot of professionals this past week, you could it like really meant something just for him personally to be back in that environment with his family there. And that was a cool moment. I really do. And it was, I was uncomfortable watching him play golf and walk around and hobble like
Starting point is 00:55:35 that. And I don't know how sustainable that all is, but like, took a couple screenshots today of just, you know, him wearing the red walking around because truly don't know if we'll ever see that again. There's absolutely no guarantee that we'll see him play another weekend. Again, like I think he's, hey, it goes to show you like just how talented he is. Like he was on, you know, maybe 15% of his capacity. And also like how fucking soft some of these other guys are. And then be like, like, I mean, like Tiger should never,
Starting point is 00:56:05 ever like talk to Jason Day, ever again. Like he should just like Jason, to meet him, right? But also like he's gonna win at St. Andrews. It would be sick. Wood watch for sure. I will for sure, tap you up if that happens.
Starting point is 00:56:19 I will not hesitate. And it'll be like, like if Tiger wins at St. Andrews, it'll be the single, like coolest sporting moment of all time. It'll make the masters, like the last masters anyone, what, 2019? Like that'll make that look like minor league shit. I do worry about the putting. It is very much not good.
Starting point is 00:56:40 And I don't think I would, I would, if I would expect him to put better at Augusta relative to the field than I would somewhere like links. On the weekend it was bad. Yeah. First couple rounds it was fine. On the flip side though, I have to imagine he's on so many anti-inflicted worries
Starting point is 00:56:56 and panpils and all sorts of stuff that like, like I just hope he can, like he's been in the cauldron here and I hope he can kind of wean himself off of that and get back to normal life for the next eight weeks to 10 weeks. Good question here from Colin Lamar, over under Tiger tournament appearances in 2022, 2.5.
Starting point is 00:57:17 That's a great question. Does the hero count? Yeah, I know it depends on what I'm like, I'm gonna go see, I'm gonna go see. I'm gonna go see. Cause like, that's, you walk. I think it sets up well at all points. It just sounds like miserable. I don't think Brooklyn sets up, it's a hard walk.
Starting point is 00:57:31 I don't think Brooklyn sets up, it's a hard walk. I don't think Brooklyn sets up, it's a hard walk. I don't think Brooklyn sets up, it's a hard walk. I don't think Brooklyn sets up, it's a hard walk. I don't think Brooklyn sets up, it's a hard walk. I don't think Brooklyn sets up, it's a hard walk. I don't think Brooklyn sets up, it's a hard walk. I don't think Brooklyn sets up mean, he won seven hills in a different golfer in two days. I don't think Brooklyn sets up, it's a hard walk. I don't think it sets up well at all.
Starting point is 00:57:48 It just sounds like miserable weeks for him. Yeah. I would, I would, I'd be rooting for him just to show up here in July. Like, let's just, let's focus on that one. Let's try to peak there. I think it's going to be shocking, at least to him, like how, and maybe not, maybe he knows exactly what he's getting himself into, but like, the next six weeks he's not gonna be able
Starting point is 00:58:09 to leave the couch. He's gonna play so much Call of Duty. What'd you like to debut your Morra Cali-Tex? No, no, no, no, not at all. It's just something I was confiding in you guys. I'm not ready to make any kind of pronouncement about- I'm not ready to take a stand.
Starting point is 00:58:28 About this at all, but I'm watching some YouTube videos. I'm kind of almost, I'm open to being radicalized by- You're doing some research? Yeah, I'm doing some research. I'm open to being radicalized by the, more how is a trackman golfer takes.
Starting point is 00:58:43 I just win, lays down. he goes out and shoots 67. Conditions are up, he's kind of nowhere to be found. So watch this space, again, I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that, I'm open to hearing more about it. Do you think the open championship win was a false flag? No, I would never say that. I don't think it was a little Little champion. It was a little less wind than usual or the condition was a little bit like a fall mass Edition's down. I don't know. It's interesting. It's interesting. You go back and watch those highlights
Starting point is 00:59:14 There was not wind at that tournament and it's a very aerial course more so that then a lot of the other links courses It were accustomed to Zalator is such a stupid, but I have open to it. I don't think that's stupid. I think that I would be curious to see what the numbers kind of net out on that. What I take on a golf course that's just fire away and do whatever you want all week.
Starting point is 00:59:39 When I take Zalator's or Lowry, I would take, I'm sorry, would I take more of Kawa or Lowry? I'd take more of Kawa. If you put them on blustery conditions right out of the wall. I would take Lowry. Yeah, would I take more a cow or a lorry? I'd take more a cow or if you like put them on blustery conditions right out of the wall. I would take lorry. Yeah, so that's an interesting thought. Zalatorus back at it. He's gonna knock off one of the,
Starting point is 00:59:53 I was gonna say if I have for head. Speaking of the guys that are gonna be on that list next year coming down Magnolia land. And another guy we need to add to that list is SungJ. Can I take, I think we're coming back. SungJ, no, I'll, I'll, SungJ, like put himself in a great spot. At no point yesterday or today, like, we didn't even talk
Starting point is 01:00:12 about him on the show last night, because at no point today, would I ever feel like he was gonna make a putt? True. Can I make a comparison though on 10 when Cam missed that slider down the hill? I thought a 100% he was going to make that. And if he put Will's out torsion that spot, I would thought the exact opposite. And so until that until I feel differently about that, I may not get as excited. Salatours is so good though. Yeah. Is ball striking. It's, you know, the problem with
Starting point is 01:00:43 all torsion is you have to keep him outside of that six foot range. Like if it's a 10 foot, he's absolutely making it. So then he's a full time. He's like trying to get. He's trying to get pully's all. Oh, dude. I don't want to talk about that. The jigger, Rory won so many dots for that for that birdie on 18.
Starting point is 01:00:59 Somebody probably, Paulie Ratler, somebody by hammered. Like the exact hammer take, yeah, I'm calling hammered, I'm sure. I'm hammered, I'm calling. But then calling chips in as well. So that's a, yeah, it's very interesting. I don't want to alarm anyone. Yeah, I'm hammered.
Starting point is 01:01:12 Zalatoris was sixth in Stroke's Game Pudding of Everybody that made the cut this week. That's alarming. Yeah. I do think there's a certain thing about Augusta with him. Greens are speedy, glassy. That's a bad putter myself. Shorter your stroke is, easier it is to get the ball in line.
Starting point is 01:01:29 I would like to implement Randy's eye test. The outsource button is not passing my eye test. You guys were all pumped up about Corey Conner's finishing in the top 12. Three in a row. T6. I don't think we're worried about Corey Conner's getting back to the Masters you have to
Starting point is 01:01:46 you're like Corey Conner seems to be turning into like a top 25. Yeah, I'm sure we played 100% his last three years at the Masters T10 T8 T6. What's his world ranking? Hold. I. At this point it's got to be top 20. Hold please. We got to talk about JT next.
Starting point is 01:02:03 JT. Let's do that. We can do that. Quarrel was 32, I believe, going into this. Right, so he's going to be up in the mid, you know, high 20s. High 20s. And we got the Canadian LLF. I don't know if we can come on up. He can't be lower than that. Again, another guy, Flore.
Starting point is 01:02:17 Oh, that's right. Flore is high. Yeah. All striker. He's broken through. It's not a total phenal situation. JT. Oh, that's right. Floors high. Yeah. All striking. He's broken through. It's not it's not a total. Yeah. Fienale situation. JT. JT. T8 minus one all over the map today. Some good stuff to take away from this week. I think I think some bad stuff to take away
Starting point is 01:02:37 that Thursday round was not good. It's all a roaring 72 72 on the weekend. How do you feel about that, Sully? I mean, it would be different if it was, like, kind of, punting himself out of it and came back into it. I don't know how to say it, but he kind of like, when I'm got it and then fell back, when I'm got it, then fell back.
Starting point is 01:02:58 I don't really have a, I didn't get a great rhythm watching him play golf this week of understanding what was good and what really wasn't. So I can't really apply, and he didn't feel like great rhythm watching him play golf this week of understanding what was good and what really wasn't. So I can't really apply. And he didn't feel like he was ever a threat to, yesterday I did for a little while. I feel like he was a threat, but at no point today
Starting point is 01:03:12 did it feel like he was a threat, but I don't have a big take on this. I'll say I like the pants today. I appreciate you riding for the pants. It was a bold play. I like to play a bold little one. You have to. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:27 I just got a text from a Tori-Catti. He said, the big question that he's asking, perhaps nobody else is asking this. Does Scottie honor his commitment to Mr. Palmer in two weeks to play the Zurich? Whoa. Potentially against, you know, other luminaries such as Lee Shinkam. Sure. Art Morkow and Hovlin playing together. They are. That's, that's terrifying. They might be odds on favorites. Seems like a pretty good team. We had some comments in here and I'm just now finding these quotes here from Tyrl Hatton.
Starting point is 01:03:59 It's been interesting comments after the round. Shout out to Neil, great, great call that he was going to be finished at last, finished the NFL of those that made the cut. It sounded like he and he and Lord, he and William, William, not only did he finish last year, he made some theatrics, the theater. What would he say? You know, the question was the last, the last round last year was 68. You signed off okay, this year you seem to be making progress. Joe
Starting point is 01:04:25 hadn't, yeah, but you can hit good shots here and knock at any reward for it. It's unfair at times. I don't agree with that. If you had a good shot, you should end up near the hole, then not shortsighted into a bunker because of the slopes they've created and stuff. Yeah, I don't think it's a fair test at times. And when you hit good shots and you're not reward for it, it shows. Next question, does it increase the frustration level more than any or is it because it's also a major tierl? He said, I think it's how the course is set up in general. You don't really have to make to miss a shot.
Starting point is 01:04:52 And your next one, you'll, you're really struggling to make par with how it runs off the greens and the slopes and you're chipping into and how it obviously it's cut. It's just really hard to even get chip shots close. I think everything is exaggerated here. For sure. I think Scotty would totally agree sure. I think yeah, that's just impossible. The only thing that separated Tyrell and Scotty this week was the bounces. It's always good to play horrible and then blame Dr. McKenzie and blame the, you know,
Starting point is 01:05:18 what many people are calling the biggest tournament in the world as a set up. That's good. As always, I'll,, please, players, continue to speak your mind. I love hearing stuff like that, but also we'll continue to say, like, yeah, that doesn't really make a lot of sense. Can we ask him for, I would like Tim to show his work. Yeah. Can you provide some big examples around?
Starting point is 01:05:39 It's, yeah, gosh, if you finished dead last, you just walk off and you gotta turn the camera inward and just be like, yeah, that was probably on me. Like I, Carol, if you finished dead last, you just walk off and you gotta turn the camera inward and just dick, yeah, that was probably on me. Like I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, showed up. You know, well, it's fine. You got to tip your cap at least. Did you guys see any shots from him? I did not. I did not see them until I got them. I want not one shot. Harry Higgs finishes two shots out, one shot out, one shot out of getting it in, back to the masters.
Starting point is 01:06:19 Let's just go, we'll go earn another way. They're great. We're totally fine. We're gonna get there. Guys Dustin disappointing weekend for Dustin. Yeah.. We're totally fine. We're going to get there. Guys, Dustin, disappointing weekend for Dustin. Yeah. Yeah. Upsetting. Sorry. I apologize on our behalf. It's big. Was this just the sky feed or was this just I'm just going on a leader. We're here. Did we see way too much Danny Willet and his Danny Willet kind of like a keegan with those
Starting point is 01:06:41 the season zone. Yeah. She's her top. Gregis. That's actually a good comp. That is a very good comp. That is a very good comp. The British eager. One major kind of a cont. T.C., I'm here for that. A keegan comparison is very, very solid. Fleetwood T-14.
Starting point is 01:07:00 How about it? Okay. Sign of life. Signs of pulse. Westwood T-14. Yeah, I got to give a big shout out to Westwood, man. I did not see that coming. Went out and even moved up the board further today.
Starting point is 01:07:10 Yeah, 70 wide. He's probably gonna trip drill build tonight. For sure. Very much though. Big shot, Bob. Would you like to celebrate that? I don't even think I need to celebrate that. He was, he's not a Ranger fan.
Starting point is 01:07:21 Yeah, again, I apologize for that last night. We got bad intel from the glass. Yeah, but which, my caddy was from Glasgow and he says he is a Rangers fan. Oh, I have to have Bob weigh in on this. Yeah, I guess. We've got Bob. If you're list, it's such a device issue, I guess that Bob doesn't even want to wait into this. There's also, you know, all sorts of religious, political, just all sorts of ramifications here. As Americans, we can't even get rid of them. Yeah. Sure. Taylor Gouche. Great. He used to play great, great golf. Yeah. Anything else you guys have from, from a, a shamed hour made the cut. Yeah, got to mention that.
Starting point is 01:08:04 I just think that TIO relief is a disgrace. And the Fijiator, the ruling body should look at the rule. They should adjust it. They should factor in some nuance. And I don't think the pros should get a free drop when they hit a horrible shot. So here, here, I, we were texting our friend, Jed on the text thread.
Starting point is 01:08:24 He's been deep on this block for a while. SFI, Billy Horseshoe is Patrick Bateman from American Psycho. That's, like they look alike, they act alike. They have similar sociopathic tendencies, the intensity level, all of that. All those, all those just like every time I see Billy, it's just like this. He's wound up.
Starting point is 01:08:46 Yeah, and it's like, you know, Patrick Bayman, like. He is wound tight. But I got the same skincare routine. Cody, anything else we are missing from the year's first major has we put it to rest. No, a lot of talk. Everybody amped up excited about ROM leading in. Probably my biggest disappointment of the week. I don't know if you guys have any extra thoughts on that, just clearly not feeling it. I think a lot of people want you guys to dig in comparing Skyverse CBS again.
Starting point is 01:09:19 I think we did a pretty good job covering it in a little mini hamster damn section. And besides that, just a lot of people begging for some more 15 talk from Cerniel over there. No Eagles for the week. We can revisit. We can revisit 15 now. Can I say on the wrong. On the wrong thing. That's kind of what's keeping me from getting way out over my skis on Scotty, right? Is he watching the last like six weeks, six months even? It's fleeting. And you're like, this is gonna last forever. This guy chips at great.
Starting point is 01:09:49 He drives at great. He puts it great. Like this is gonna be forever. He's always gonna be number one. And it's like, we said all the same shit about Rom. And I'm, I think finally we're starting to. Also. To chill a little bit.
Starting point is 01:10:01 And I hope it lasts for Scotty. I hope it's so much more fun and golf when I think anyways when one guy is top dog for a year, two years, three years, four years, five years, but that's not normal. So rare for that to happen. So Scotty go get it while you got it. Smash the glass. Grab as much as you possibly can. And I get and but I think roms's gonna come back or I think or I think ROM's about to come back with a vengeance. I think so too.
Starting point is 01:10:30 I think I count out ROM true. ROM playing with cat today, I think was huge for him. And see and cat open up and talk that much about it. Did Cat give him some advice finally? Maybe some person was good. That was good leading into the week. JTS him. Yeah., gives him a whole dissertation. He's a dissertation, it's like, man,
Starting point is 01:10:47 you know the word dissertation. I would even pull that out of my book, I believe. Ron's got such a good book, I know, it's incredible. He's the one who said he pledged his field. This second language, his pledge is, he's pulling dissertation out and press conference. Pleasure, he's guilty. Cody, question for you, did they show on CBS
Starting point is 01:11:02 the, it's filthy. The embrace between butch and Tiger? Yes, they did. Oh, they did. Okay, that was cool. That was cool to see, like, you know, which listening to Butch on the telecast, he's like, praise his tiger.
Starting point is 01:11:17 You hear, come on tiger, knock this in. Give the crowd a cheer here. Like he's way into it. Again, like Butch, like a shit. I mean, like, why is But Bush not the lead guy on CBS? Yeah, I know it's a win a major championship, but I mean shit like that's interesting anybody but failed I think the biggest thing is like I know butch can does a lot of this stuff remote nowadays But he doesn't travel that much anymore this first time he's been back to the master since 2019
Starting point is 01:11:43 Uh, and then catching up with Claude a couple of weeks ago in Austin, he just said that more and more, he just, he loves that Vegas life. He's not gonna be moving around. So, unless a permanent remote somewhere, that's where we die. Give him five tournaments a year. And pay him a shitload of money.
Starting point is 01:11:59 And I don't know. Do you guys wanna relitigate 15 or put a conclusion to this? No, I think we rocked him. I'm not, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna stunt. I think we ended last night said, let's see how it plays with the wind down a little bit. And I thought it was great today. Zero, zero Eagles.
Starting point is 01:12:17 I think though. Yeah, so zero Eagles. Okay, so maybe there were one good players. I guess we're on a diet on 15 now. I guess we can only see it every once in a while. Yeah, you were fat and happy before. Yeah, I think the whole was just fine. They were giving out crystal like they were other holes.
Starting point is 01:12:30 My point is there are other holes they could tweak on that course that deserve more attention than messing with 15. I thought 15 was just fine. I don't, I would like to reiterate that it's not even as much as messing with 15 is it was not adding flexibility to when the wind is in to make that poll play way more interesting for the first three days. And again, I just respectfully disagree. Listen, I'll be I'll be in the middle. And you can't dunk today and be like see told you it was right. That was T.C. I'll absolutely do that. I will be in the middle a little bit and say, yeah, one of the, you know, maybe
Starting point is 01:13:03 first time in the last 15 years that the wind was out of the West, three days in a row like that. But I would say if they could have carved out a little bit of flexibility and moved it up one of the three days, I'm cool with that. I just, I like seeing the variability of like, when it's not a two shot, like basically a par four, like that's cool too. Like it kind of makes you appreciate it a little bit more when Scotty went for it today or like that makes it, that made today more interesting for him. Yeah, nine iron, it wasn't that,
Starting point is 01:13:36 even that short. 242. I feel like this is the first, the most, this wasn't, this particular one was not Fowdo's fault, but I felt like this is the first, this was not Fowdo's fault, but I felt like this was the most momentum we've ever had for Fowdo getting out of it. So I'll be curious to see if the gas pedal stays down
Starting point is 01:13:53 on that one. I feel like they cut his mic off like 15 minutes after today, but you guys good to wrap? I'm taked out. I'm taked out. This is, we left it all in the field. We've wavered so it's currently 138 AM for the fourth night in a row here. I just shut it down.
Starting point is 01:14:10 I'm ready to shut it down. Nobody's going to certainly cry for the boys here, but we've wavoured so hard back and forth between like, we should do this every year for the Masters because we can play golf in the morning and then you watch it in the bar in the afternoon and evening. It's the best. And also like, we should never do this again because we get to bed at three o'clock every night. It's exhausting.
Starting point is 01:14:30 So I still don't really quite know where I fall on this, but had a hell of a week. Maybe my most fun master's ever. We're playing the new tomorrow. Playing the new. It's not awesome. I'm first off, which is again, we got to wrap this thing up. Let's wrap it up here. Let's get to bed and we're going to enjoy seeing Andrews.
Starting point is 01:14:52 Thank you everyone for tuning in all week. This was a lot of fun. Thank you Cody for running the ones and twos. Thank you C for running the ones and twos. Code, but then shorten to see. I think we can go with that Yes, this was this was a blast to do. Thank you everyone for supporting our show as always We'll be back with live shows again for southern hills to pga. Cheers
