What happens when airplane noise, local vagrants, and premium green fees intersect at a top tourist golf destination? We found out during our recent round at Bali Hai Golf Club and share all the details about the course's unique challenges and its top-notch amenities. Join Dan, Matt, Joe, and Jeremy as we also dive into the local golf scene and debate Rory McIlroy's sportsmanship, with plenty of listener opinions adding spice to the conversation.

Ever wondered if an all-day golf pass for unlimited play is worth it? We muse over its appeal and practicality, sharing our thoughts on Bali Hai’s possibilities of hosting night golf and the logistics of playing amidst airport operations. Plus, we break down the thrilling moments from the US Open tournament, analyzing Rory's performance and Bryson DeChambeau's remarkable back nine, while tackling the general criticism Rory faces despite his undeniable talent.

Bryson DeChambeau's rise to stardom, Rory McIlroy's journey, and the grueling conditions at Pinehurst are at the forefront of our tournament recap. From Bryson's fan engagement to the impact of his move to LIV Golf, we explore the broader implications for both players in the golfing world. Tune in for a spirited discussion on the emotional toll of high-stakes competition, the intricacies of the U.S. Open course setups, and why we relish watching top golfers battle against tough conditions.


We hope you enjoy this week's episode, and if you do, please consider leaving us a review on either Spotify or iTunes. Thank You!

00:01:30.382 --> 00:01:30.784
That's?

00:01:32.388 --> 00:01:33.189
And driving.

00:01:33.189 --> 00:01:34.272
Yes, that's not safe.

00:01:39.704 --> 00:01:44.331
Golf stop, the premier indoor track man lounge in Wes Henderson.

00:01:44.331 --> 00:01:48.688
Please check them out, go in, hit some balls, because it's freaking hot outside right now.

00:01:48.688 --> 00:01:50.635
Uh, today was refreshing.

00:01:50.635 --> 00:01:53.926
It was only 69 or 71, something like that.

00:01:53.926 --> 00:02:02.230
In my backyard this morning as I was doing trash duties, uh, little cold, cold front came through, so that was incredibly pleasant today.

00:02:02.230 --> 00:02:09.028
I wish I was building Steven Jackson's clubs today, not when it was 110 over the weekend.

00:02:09.028 --> 00:02:16.507
So thank you to those two, scott Russo and the golf stop, for their continued support for the show.

00:02:16.507 --> 00:02:17.724
We really do appreciate it.

00:02:18.461 --> 00:02:21.490
There is a poll question up right now on YouTube.

00:02:21.490 --> 00:02:28.949
Here is the question Was Rory wrong for not sticking around and congratulating Bryson on his win?

00:02:28.949 --> 00:02:34.191
A lot of heat he took for this, quite a bit of heat actually.

00:02:34.191 --> 00:02:37.528
I was a little surprised that he took so much heat from it.

00:02:37.528 --> 00:02:46.098
So we'll be talking about that, but that if you're interested in the poll it's on youtube please join.

00:02:46.098 --> 00:02:47.425
You can do that.

00:02:47.906 --> 00:02:51.580
I'll uh throw these up every now and then to uh, you know, hey, go vote in the poll.

00:02:51.580 --> 00:02:54.405
Um, to remind everybody if you have not.

00:02:54.405 --> 00:02:56.308
Uh, it's pretty basic this week.

00:02:56.308 --> 00:02:57.912
So, no, no craziness.

00:02:57.912 --> 00:03:03.031
Um, we what we're gonna get to some, uh, local golf before.

00:03:03.031 --> 00:03:04.514
Oh, roars is in the chat, I didn't see that.

00:03:04.514 --> 00:03:06.379
Uh, I didn't did.

00:03:06.379 --> 00:03:08.945
Did the panthers come back and win roars?

00:03:08.945 --> 00:03:09.768
I, I haven't looked.

00:03:09.768 --> 00:03:13.883
I know they weren't doing well, so, um.

00:03:13.883 --> 00:03:28.967
So we got some some local stuff that we're going to talk about because, uh, dan, jeremy, joe and myself were out at Valley High on Friday playing in the hey, let's tee off at 11.30.

00:03:28.967 --> 00:03:33.427
And it was late.

00:03:33.427 --> 00:03:33.868
No, it was.

00:03:33.868 --> 00:03:34.831
What time, was it?

00:03:36.204 --> 00:03:37.852
Yeah, it was like 11.10.

00:03:38.515 --> 00:03:39.319
Yeah, that's what it was.

00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:41.445
Wow, it was hot.

00:03:41.445 --> 00:03:43.287
It was hot.

00:03:43.287 --> 00:03:44.454
Let's see, we got some chats coming in here.

00:03:44.454 --> 00:03:45.038
What was hot?

00:03:45.038 --> 00:03:47.407
Let's see, we got some chats coming in here.

00:03:47.407 --> 00:03:54.348
What do we got Trey, yes and no Bad sportsmanship, but shows grit and being pissed off about the result of not winning.

00:03:54.348 --> 00:04:00.288
Okay, rob Chapman, oilers won 5-3 on game six.

00:04:00.288 --> 00:04:02.492
Uh-oh, there you go.

00:04:02.492 --> 00:04:08.603
I don't know if you want to play game six in edmonton edmonton's finding the their offense.

00:04:08.663 --> 00:04:09.626
Now, man, it's what?

00:04:09.665 --> 00:04:16.923
yeah, last couple games, I had the panthers in the under and lost both sides, so that was not good.

00:04:16.923 --> 00:04:19.646
Um, all right.

00:04:19.646 --> 00:04:22.750
So bally, high dan, uh, did an awesome thing.

00:04:22.750 --> 00:04:32.752
He won a free round on social media, on Instagram, and he said he talked to them and said, hey, like can we bring the whole crew out?

00:04:32.752 --> 00:04:33.663
They said, yeah, let's do it.

00:04:33.663 --> 00:04:35.528
So we went out there.

00:04:35.528 --> 00:04:41.130
I I don't hate Bally, I know, joe, it's not Joe's favorite course in town.

00:04:41.130 --> 00:04:43.762
I don't think it's any of our favorite course in town.

00:04:43.762 --> 00:04:46.968
It has some things that you know we don't like about it.

00:04:46.968 --> 00:04:54.987
Mainly it's because they like to charge 300 to play it and it's not a 300 golf course but what it?

00:04:55.127 --> 00:04:55.267
is.

00:04:55.267 --> 00:04:56.750
It's a tourist.

00:04:56.750 --> 00:04:59.901
I don't want to call it a trap, because it's.

00:04:59.901 --> 00:05:00.382
It's a.

00:05:00.382 --> 00:05:01.665
It's cheaper than when.

00:05:01.665 --> 00:05:08.095
It's cheaper than Shadow Creek, so it's a place where people can get the Vegas experience.

00:05:08.095 --> 00:05:10.949
It's right there, there's Jeremy.

00:05:11.701 --> 00:05:13.386
Every golf course is cheaper than Shadow Creek.

00:05:13.947 --> 00:05:14.588
Yeah, that is true.

00:05:14.588 --> 00:05:15.211
That is true.

00:05:15.211 --> 00:05:17.666
We just started talking about Valley High what up?

00:05:17.687 --> 00:05:18.750
Jimmy Gotcha.

00:05:18.829 --> 00:05:27.583
What's up, and I was saying how it's not everybody's favorite course but it's kind of a tourist trap, but they do it really well.

00:05:27.583 --> 00:05:31.252
Um, for the tourists, the pro shop is fantastic.

00:05:31.252 --> 00:05:35.865
Um, the the food is excellent and and the course is fun.

00:05:35.865 --> 00:05:50.766
I mean, you do you have to deal with airplanes and you have to deal with, you know, some of the uh, the vagrants that like to uh walk around the golf course, that come through the tunnel, tunnel people, tunnel people, as they're called Occasionally, which was really.

00:05:50.766 --> 00:05:52.805
Did you guys see all the golf bags in the tunnel?

00:05:54.531 --> 00:05:54.651
No.

00:05:55.540 --> 00:05:57.528
The hole closest to the 15?

00:05:57.528 --> 00:06:04.927
Yeah, there was like four golf bags they looked like rental bags just in the corner of the tunnel.

00:06:06.170 --> 00:06:13.704
Maybe, we got some night golfers yeah some tunnel golf

00:06:13.725 --> 00:06:16.348
some tunnel golf oh okay, that's what kat said to trey.

00:06:16.348 --> 00:06:21.641
Funny, I think, rory, it doesn't sit well with the public eye to do what he did.

00:06:21.641 --> 00:06:24.689
Uh, if valley high was 80 for locals it'd be worth it.

00:06:24.689 --> 00:06:25.831
That's very true.

00:06:25.831 --> 00:06:27.202
It would be worth it for a buck.

00:06:27.202 --> 00:06:32.404
I agree with that, um, especially compared to how bryson handled it to pga just a few weeks earlier.

00:06:32.404 --> 00:06:44.372
Okay, and bryson turns babyface hero and rory gets heel villain, just as a golf world expected oh I guess you're talking about rory taking off right yes

00:06:45.233 --> 00:06:46.375
that's the thing with rory too.

00:06:46.375 --> 00:06:47.807
There's like no in between with that dude.

00:06:47.807 --> 00:06:51.081
You either either are a fan of his or you really don't like him.

00:06:51.081 --> 00:06:51.903
There's like.

00:06:51.903 --> 00:06:58.709
There's like no in between, and for the people that don't like him, it's just time to pour it on right now it was fuel for the fire.

00:06:58.889 --> 00:07:00.915
See, see, he's a dick.

00:07:01.918 --> 00:07:07.961
Yeah, I'm like he's been having to deal with not having won a major for a decade.

00:07:07.961 --> 00:07:10.067
Now, right, he hasn't won a major in like 10 years.

00:07:10.067 --> 00:07:10.869
Yeah, shit, like that.

00:07:10.869 --> 00:07:11.850
Yeah, you know.

00:07:11.850 --> 00:07:19.562
So for him to get so close and to slip through his fingers again, you know he's like fuck, now I gotta listen to this for another decade.

00:07:19.562 --> 00:07:23.247
You know, like I get why he left.

00:07:23.247 --> 00:07:30.355
I do get it, you know, and like I told you guys, I probably would have left too.

00:07:30.355 --> 00:07:43.755
Like you can call it bad sports, you can call it whatever you want, but until you're in that moment and you go through four exhausting rounds of US Open and only to lose it like that, you're not going to be super cheery and be like, yeah, awesome bro, congratulations.

00:07:43.755 --> 00:07:49.387
Super cheery and be like, yeah, awesome bro, congratulations, even though it might be, you know, the the pg thing to do.

00:07:49.387 --> 00:07:51.833
Me personally, I probably wouldn't do that.

00:07:51.833 --> 00:07:54.163
If that's the case, why did the third place guy stick around?

00:07:54.163 --> 00:07:55.286
Why the sixth place guy?

00:07:55.327 --> 00:08:07.180
yeah yeah you can make a case for everybody who didn't win, to stick around and congratulate him, tiger but yeah, I agree with that for sure you didn't see tiger hanging around and congratulating the winners.

00:08:07.540 --> 00:08:09.064
He they weren't in the same group.

00:08:09.064 --> 00:08:09.524
I'm sure.

00:08:09.524 --> 00:08:10.408
He sent him a text.

00:08:10.408 --> 00:08:17.831
They all have each other's numbers, I'm sure he congratulated him yeah, but I mean it's like everyone's bryson.

00:08:17.831 --> 00:08:19.420
He's the guy that hangs around jt.

00:08:19.420 --> 00:08:23.608
He hangs around ricky's, the guy who's notorious for hanging around Rory's.

00:08:23.608 --> 00:08:24.209
Not that guy.

00:08:24.588 --> 00:08:26.572
I just don't get why he's not at all the critic?

00:08:27.454 --> 00:08:28.295
Yeah, I don't get it.

00:08:29.182 --> 00:08:30.605
It's easy to be critical of Rory.

00:08:31.767 --> 00:08:32.028
It is.

00:08:32.129 --> 00:08:41.313
It is definitely, it definitely is, but that was an awesome open and that was one of the most exciting finishes I can remember in a while.

00:08:41.313 --> 00:08:52.048
I mean, I know there's been some close finishes, but that one stands, that one stands out.

00:08:52.048 --> 00:08:52.610
That was really good, yeah.

00:08:52.610 --> 00:08:56.341
And and to add some downs, bryson had that back nine unbelievable short side himself like three or four times and just plinking it right up there making that.

00:08:56.341 --> 00:08:59.671
But it's like wow, I mean that's what you got to do to win us open.

00:08:59.671 --> 00:09:01.523
You got to make those, you got to make those up and downs.

00:09:02.365 --> 00:09:05.912
You know what, to add a little more fuel to Rory's.

00:09:05.912 --> 00:09:23.785
Not a dick, he was leading the tournament by two strokes on the back nine and you know, 489 for 489 from three feet on the season and you miss that first one and then Bryson misses his.

00:09:23.785 --> 00:09:25.366
So it's like okay, wash.

00:09:25.366 --> 00:09:31.292
But I mean Brandl said it as soon as the ball finished where it did.

00:09:31.292 --> 00:09:35.447
He's like you don't want to be there, that is not where you want to be.

00:09:35.447 --> 00:09:51.885
So you know, having the lead squandering it, then leaving yourself in a bad spot to close it out, you know, yeah, I'm sure he was fucking fuming.

00:09:51.926 --> 00:09:54.330
So yeah, hey and yeah bryson had that thing.

00:09:54.389 --> 00:10:00.264
Like what was he up by three going into the final round and he lost that lead completely.

00:10:00.264 --> 00:10:04.389
Yeah, so I don't know, I I don't.

00:10:04.389 --> 00:10:06.311
I'm not a critical of anyone.

00:10:06.311 --> 00:10:08.374
I I'm happy bryson won.

00:10:08.374 --> 00:10:12.365
I just hate the hit that that stuff that rory gets for that.

00:10:12.485 --> 00:10:15.660
It's just yeah, because at the end of the day he's a human.

00:10:15.760 --> 00:10:16.422
He he was.

00:10:16.422 --> 00:10:25.294
You know it's easy to criticize people for sure I get that but I don't think he deserves the hate that he gets all around.

00:10:25.294 --> 00:10:27.307
Yeah, I agree, all right.

00:10:27.399 --> 00:10:32.712
So, for the people that are just hopping on, we got the poll question.

00:10:32.712 --> 00:10:36.110
Please answer that if you wish to.

00:10:36.110 --> 00:10:43.192
You know was Rory wrong for sticking around, so we got some more US Open talk coming in later.

00:10:43.192 --> 00:10:46.836
So this is our first time playing together.

00:10:46.836 --> 00:10:52.880
I looked, we thought it was black desert, but actually we played boulder creek earlier this year, um, where we all, we all got together.

00:10:52.880 --> 00:10:56.815
So it's been a while, um, as as frequent as all of us play.

00:10:56.815 --> 00:10:58.120
It's crazy we don't play more.

00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:02.246
But you know it's hard getting four people on the same page all the time.

00:11:02.246 --> 00:11:04.150
So it was awesome to play with you guys.

00:11:04.150 --> 00:11:07.943
Um, valley high was in it's in good shape.

00:11:07.943 --> 00:11:11.615
It for it being, you know, 110 degrees right now.

00:11:11.615 --> 00:11:14.062
I thought the greens were fantastic.

00:11:14.062 --> 00:11:16.788
Yeah, you know, they were receptive.

00:11:16.788 --> 00:11:21.943
They, they, you know, repaired well, because we were fixing our pitch marks.

00:11:21.943 --> 00:11:23.109
Um, that's right.

00:11:23.109 --> 00:11:26.546
Uh, I, you know we didn't have any pace issues.

00:11:26.546 --> 00:11:30.150
The group, let us go with a couple, three, four holes left.

00:11:30.150 --> 00:11:31.224
Let us go ahead of them.

00:11:31.706 --> 00:11:32.489
We were riding them.

00:11:32.840 --> 00:11:39.407
We were kind of riding them, but one guy was like happy to let us go and I think the other three guys he was playing with were pissed.

00:11:39.407 --> 00:11:48.907
Um, but you know, I was telling, I was telling Joe when I cause I got there and uh was was hanging out, didn't go to the range.

00:11:48.907 --> 00:11:50.754
I was waiting for you guys to get there to go.

00:11:50.754 --> 00:12:01.594
You know, hit up the amazing range at valley high, um, and I was watching all the people come off the course and it was nothing but rental set after rental set after rental set after rental set after rental set.

00:12:01.594 --> 00:12:06.235
I mean, they get so many out-of-towners at that place.

00:12:06.235 --> 00:12:09.264
I totally understand why they don't have a great deal for locals.

00:12:09.264 --> 00:12:10.506
Why would we?

00:12:10.506 --> 00:12:11.669
We don't need to.

00:12:11.669 --> 00:12:25.196
Um, you know, maybe at two o'clock in august, um, you know, uh, it would be, it would be okay, they just don't need to.

00:12:25.196 --> 00:12:32.409
This is something that Joe and I have talked about before With the night golf, you know.

00:12:33.903 --> 00:12:35.629
You have epic to go there at night.

00:12:35.688 --> 00:12:36.311
Oh my god.

00:12:36.311 --> 00:12:46.427
But I think the reason why they don't is because they get so much play during the day at such a high rate.

00:12:46.427 --> 00:12:48.942
When you when is the course going to heal?

00:12:48.942 --> 00:12:59.773
You know you have, you have that much play and night play, that course is just going to get destroyed and it's, you know, not already a great conditioned golf course.

00:12:59.773 --> 00:13:09.317
So I mean that I think to have night play you're gonna have to not have some day play, and that is just too much money they're throwing away do you?

00:13:09.577 --> 00:13:13.606
I wonder if the airport's too close to like they can't put that many lights right by the end of the runway.

00:13:13.606 --> 00:13:16.701
Do you think that's a possible issue?

00:13:17.423 --> 00:13:18.025
possibility.

00:13:18.025 --> 00:13:24.164
I think that could be a possibility for sure well, yeah, maybe you never know dude it was good

00:13:24.186 --> 00:13:32.726
they had one of the maverick plane there, one of the Maverick helicopters was landing as I was driving to the course and it's like this helicopter is just hovering right off the like, it's like right next to you.

00:13:32.726 --> 00:13:40.559
So there's so much action going on right around there, they would charge the same as well.

00:13:41.783 --> 00:13:54.500
Yeah, they'd probably charge more to play at night they should do like if they were to do that, they should do like all day pass, you know, like a flat rate, be like 400 bucks, play all the golf you want one day or something like that.

00:13:54.500 --> 00:14:00.480
I don't know if it would be worth it or not still, but that'd be kind of cool to have that option.

00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:01.503
Is joe working late?

00:14:02.725 --> 00:14:05.772
I don't know, trey, where's joe you're chatting.

00:14:05.772 --> 00:14:06.513
Where's joe is he?

00:14:06.513 --> 00:14:08.144
Is he driving or are you driving?

00:14:08.144 --> 00:14:11.254
Uh, but cool for logos to play.

00:14:11.294 --> 00:14:14.783
Yeah, I hope trey's not driving yeah, I hope trey's not driving.

00:14:16.206 --> 00:14:21.583
Uh, we like sweetens once a year worth every minute from ryan uh works at sweet and co.

00:14:21.583 --> 00:14:22.105
Yeah, I mean.

00:14:22.105 --> 00:14:34.986
Um, I mean Sweden Cove is nine holes and it's not getting near as much play as Valley High, because I mean that tee sheet was packed and it was blazing hot.

00:14:34.986 --> 00:14:38.629
So a little different world, a little different world.

00:14:38.629 --> 00:14:48.208
But night golf, I think out there, the only places that we say it would work would be there or Desert Pines, just because it's so uh tight back and forth.

00:14:48.208 --> 00:14:52.441
You know you can put one string of lights between two holes and light both.

00:14:52.441 --> 00:15:04.703
Trey's not driving, since he's driving to utah friday, oh yeah nice, all right uh, so I, I again, I.

00:15:05.085 --> 00:15:06.048
I'm on a heater right now.

00:15:06.048 --> 00:15:07.566
I played another good round of golf.

00:15:07.566 --> 00:15:20.331
I'm not going to lead it with breaking news like I did last week, but I had another putt on the 18th hole for a personal best and missed it.

00:15:21.212 --> 00:15:27.120
Lift it, lift it, just lift it A little bit more speed yeah you're still playing well.

00:15:28.763 --> 00:15:31.048
Yeah, I'm really happy with how I'm playing right now.

00:15:31.048 --> 00:15:50.488
The the driver's working well, the irons are are dialed, the new wedge shafts uh, the legp wedge shafts are absolutely fantastic and I've been playing the Wilson staff ball, the new one, the 2024 version, and I gave one to Jeremy to play the.

00:15:50.488 --> 00:15:58.183
X model, the, the firmer one, the X model, and and Jeremy, give us a minute- I love it and staff model X.

00:15:58.966 --> 00:16:05.139
Yeah, like if, if there's anything in the bag that I do not even change or look at or try new things, it's the bag that I do not even change or look at or try new things, it's the ball.

00:16:05.139 --> 00:16:13.073
I've just played the Pro V1X for probably 10 years, um, but yeah, he gave me the Wilson and it was.

00:16:13.073 --> 00:16:15.288
I mean, I could tell immediately it was.

00:16:15.288 --> 00:16:16.394
It was harder, for sure.

00:16:16.394 --> 00:16:18.422
It took it took a little getting used to, but man, what a.

00:16:18.422 --> 00:16:18.802
It's a great ball.

00:16:18.802 --> 00:16:19.202
It's super durable.

00:16:19.202 --> 00:16:20.085
The spin is just right for me.

00:16:20.085 --> 00:16:22.070
I don't get a lot of spin, I'm already kind of a low spin player.

00:16:22.070 --> 00:16:23.413
Great ball, it's super durable.

00:16:23.413 --> 00:16:24.796
The spin is just right for me.

00:16:24.796 --> 00:16:27.264
I don't get a lot of spin, I'm already kind of a low spin player.

00:16:27.264 --> 00:16:29.910
I could spin that thing around the greens.

00:16:29.910 --> 00:16:32.283
It goes straighter, it goes further.

00:16:32.283 --> 00:16:33.807
I love it.

00:16:33.807 --> 00:16:40.904
I need to go buy me a couple boxes, but yeah, that's awesome I never, ever.

00:16:41.405 --> 00:16:44.032
I mean this is like breaking breaking news.

00:16:44.032 --> 00:16:51.091
Yeah for sure, jeremy, not playing a Titleist golf ball and enjoying not playing a Titleist golf ball.

00:16:51.091 --> 00:16:56.751
I'm kind of happy because I like the Odin golf ball.

00:16:56.751 --> 00:16:58.626
Nobody else picked up on it.

00:16:58.626 --> 00:17:02.890
I stopped playing it just because I was trying to get a little bit more performance.

00:17:02.890 --> 00:17:11.381
I've been playing the triad for a couple months now, been really happy with it and, thanks to kevin forness, he had some staff model balls.

00:17:11.381 --> 00:17:12.403
He's like you need to try these.

00:17:12.403 --> 00:17:13.787
So he gave me a sleeve of each.

00:17:13.787 --> 00:17:18.924
The x is, I mean it's it's 104 compression golf ball.

00:17:18.924 --> 00:17:21.650
It's just way too firm for me to do anything with it.

00:17:21.650 --> 00:17:27.561
Um, but jeremy said, yeah, I'll give it a shot and and had a hole out with it.

00:17:27.561 --> 00:17:30.430
Uh, shot, uh, even round.

00:17:30.430 --> 00:17:32.957
Um, we had hole outs going in all over the place.

00:17:32.957 --> 00:17:35.142
You know I almost hold in on the whole.

00:17:35.142 --> 00:17:42.723
Jeremy did dan hold in for eagle on the first hole um, yeah, that was sick yeah, so, uh, it was.

00:17:42.844 --> 00:17:46.290
It was fun out there, and Kat sent me a picture.

00:17:46.290 --> 00:17:46.873
They're watching.

00:17:46.873 --> 00:17:52.163
Thanks, kat, so are you going to keep playing it?

00:17:52.163 --> 00:17:53.306
Is that the plan?

00:17:53.405 --> 00:17:54.126
Yeah, for sure.

00:17:54.488 --> 00:17:55.891
Yeah, nice.

00:17:56.151 --> 00:17:56.833
Yep, I will.

00:17:56.833 --> 00:18:02.403
I got to go, like I said, I need to go buy a couple dozen, and so I've got them, but I think I still have the sleeve.

00:18:02.403 --> 00:18:07.548
You gave me the rest of the sleeve, so, but yeah, I'm excited to try it again tomorrow.

00:18:08.309 --> 00:18:09.070
Yeah, yep.

00:18:09.090 --> 00:18:09.711
See how it goes.

00:18:10.112 --> 00:18:13.596
We're going to be out at a cascada tomorrow with Rocky and Gino from the golf fathers.

00:18:13.596 --> 00:18:17.846
That's going to be a blast playing that, so all right.

00:18:17.846 --> 00:18:20.890
So that covers Bali high, jeremy.

00:18:20.890 --> 00:18:23.565
You were out at Boulder Creek with Trey you.

00:18:23.585 --> 00:18:24.707
Hi, jeremy, you were out at Boulder Creek with.

00:18:24.727 --> 00:18:25.407
Trey, you had a two-man event.

00:18:25.407 --> 00:18:26.130
How did that go?

00:18:26.810 --> 00:18:27.291
It was fun.

00:18:27.291 --> 00:18:34.142
It was a 27 hole so we played.

00:18:34.142 --> 00:18:37.779
The first nine on Desert Hawk was a shamble, and then a scramble on Coyote Run and an alternate on Eldorado, and it was fun.

00:18:37.779 --> 00:18:39.907
We definitely had a lot of missed opportunities.

00:18:39.907 --> 00:18:48.065
We missed a few short putts, so you just wonder why you would miss something like that in a scramble or so we, we shot.

00:18:48.065 --> 00:18:52.760
I think we ended up shooting 11 under on the first two and then two over on the alternate shot.

00:18:52.760 --> 00:19:01.222
But dude, we were like on eldorado alternate shots already tough and we were just like it was hot it was.

00:19:01.222 --> 00:19:10.929
We were just both of us had no energy and we made it through, but it was so much fun Probably could have definitely done better.

00:19:10.929 --> 00:19:13.426
We just it was just a lot of fun.

00:19:13.426 --> 00:19:14.590
I like that format.

00:19:14.590 --> 00:19:15.704
I love alternate shot.

00:19:15.704 --> 00:19:23.146
I think it puts a lot of pressure on you and it really trusts your friendship that you have with people.

00:19:23.146 --> 00:19:25.023
But yeah, I love it.

00:19:25.023 --> 00:19:26.228
It was such a blast.

00:19:26.228 --> 00:19:27.603
I'd love to play in it again next year.

00:19:29.906 --> 00:19:30.489
Nice.

00:19:30.489 --> 00:19:30.729
What?

00:19:30.729 --> 00:19:31.711
What was the winning?

00:19:31.711 --> 00:19:33.034
Winning score.

00:19:33.942 --> 00:19:34.345
I don't know.

00:19:34.345 --> 00:19:37.407
We took nine, we shot nine under and we took seventh.

00:19:37.407 --> 00:19:39.307
So I don't know.

00:19:39.307 --> 00:19:45.311
We both want to CTP, though I think I can't remember what Trey won, but I won a golf travel bag which will come in handy.

00:19:45.311 --> 00:19:49.146
But yeah, I can't even imagine what the score was.

00:19:49.146 --> 00:19:49.769
You know how they go.

00:19:49.769 --> 00:19:52.626
They're probably someone shot a 49 or something 89.

00:19:52.626 --> 00:19:58.042
Yeah, 89.

00:19:58.042 --> 00:20:01.269
It was fun though I enjoyed it.

00:20:01.269 --> 00:20:01.611
That's right.

00:20:01.611 --> 00:20:03.756
It was 27 holes, 80.

00:20:03.756 --> 00:20:05.945
89, yeah, what is that?

00:20:07.060 --> 00:20:10.041
Was that 19 under yeah?

00:20:10.102 --> 00:20:11.990
something like that 36.

00:20:13.223 --> 00:20:14.127
Part 36 is right.

00:20:14.127 --> 00:20:15.732
Three courses, that's 108.

00:20:15.732 --> 00:20:19.315
So 89, yeah, that's 1900.

00:20:19.315 --> 00:20:19.616
Good lord.

00:20:21.303 --> 00:20:22.255
Which we definitely had.

00:20:22.255 --> 00:20:29.311
Probably 10 strokes we could have easily improved on just from putts, but it was fun.

00:20:29.311 --> 00:20:31.448
It sounds fun though, yeah.

00:20:32.921 --> 00:20:33.261
All right.

00:20:33.261 --> 00:20:40.428
And then, uh, joe, uh, we'd ask him how, uh, his, his, uh, golf was today.

00:20:40.428 --> 00:20:43.266
But, trey, maybe you could fill us in, since you're sitting in the car with him right now.

00:20:43.266 --> 00:20:43.815
How, how was uh, what did he say?

00:20:43.815 --> 00:20:44.395
Uh, moval Marino Valley today.

00:20:44.395 --> 00:20:45.468
But, trey, maybe you could fill us in, since you're sitting in the car with him right now.

00:20:45.468 --> 00:20:47.387
How, how was uh, what did he say?

00:20:47.387 --> 00:20:49.932
Uh, moval merino valley.

00:20:49.932 --> 00:20:52.438

00:20:52.557 --> 00:20:53.640
you can leave his message.

00:20:53.640 --> 00:20:54.942
Was it victoria club?

00:20:54.942 --> 00:20:55.565
Is that the one?

00:20:55.565 --> 00:21:00.262
I think that's what I saw, yeah, yeah, it looked pretty fun looked really nice.

00:21:00.623 --> 00:21:05.271
so, and was that tracy mcgrady's bag that you shared a picture of?

00:21:05.271 --> 00:21:08.646
Is that the TMAC, or is that some other TMAC that I don't know?

00:21:08.646 --> 00:21:11.547
Aa Rick in the house on Instagram.

00:21:11.547 --> 00:21:13.546
Thanks, sir, for joining us.

00:21:13.546 --> 00:21:14.890
Vibes were excellent.

00:21:14.890 --> 00:21:18.220
Yeah, that's a Joe response, that's not a Trey response.

00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:25.090
That's the same response I got earlier in the text Course resolved vibes or pure vibes or something like that.

00:21:27.961 --> 00:21:28.481
Was it a good routing?

00:21:28.481 --> 00:21:30.105
Okay, all right.

00:21:30.105 --> 00:21:31.548
Uh, let's see what are we at.

00:21:31.548 --> 00:21:32.009
Where are we at?

00:21:32.009 --> 00:21:33.011
Where are we at 21 minutes?

00:21:33.011 --> 00:21:48.054
Okay, let's, let's do the uh, let's do our las vegas golf superstore ad and then we'll come back and start chatting there's something that binds us all the joy of connecting on and off the course.

00:21:52.268 --> 00:21:56.404

Get there get there?

00:22:14.728 --> 00:22:17.872

They need something there get there don't work for me get down, get down here get to the chopper yes

00:22:28.443 --> 00:22:28.726
okay.

00:22:28.726 --> 00:22:34.025
So, as I was sharing with everybody, we have the poll question.

00:22:34.025 --> 00:22:36.259
This is over on YouTube.

00:22:36.259 --> 00:22:40.749
So if you're watching on, joe said he'll be here in like 15 minutes.

00:22:40.749 --> 00:22:52.531
Okay, if you're watching on Instagram, just get off Instagram and go over to youtube and answer our poll question and, uh, yeah, keep reminding everybody go vote in the poll.

00:22:52.531 --> 00:22:55.567
Uh, so I looked at is.

00:22:55.627 --> 00:23:01.323
We had a little bit of talk about bryson earlier, which I mean we can continue that here if you would like.

00:23:01.323 --> 00:23:02.664
Oh hey, what's up?

00:23:02.664 --> 00:23:04.086
People, he came over.

00:23:04.086 --> 00:23:08.491
So I, I, I looked at the, the open.

00:23:08.491 --> 00:23:11.955
There there was three, three big stories that I thought of.

00:23:11.955 --> 00:23:21.887
One is Bryson to Rory and three pinehurst in general, the, the, the course.

00:23:21.907 --> 00:23:29.078
We saw this type of you know, fast greens layout with LACC, but just wasn't the same.

00:23:29.078 --> 00:23:30.762
The greens were definitely not as challenging.

00:23:30.762 --> 00:23:38.566
It reminded me of how they burn out Chambers Bay, but the conditions just weren't great because they let it go too much.

00:23:38.566 --> 00:23:44.423
You know I love Oakmont and I think is my favorite US Open course.

00:23:44.423 --> 00:23:55.666
I do love pebble when they grow the rough incredibly long and make that course really tough and the guys have to play it for four days, unlike at the, the pebble beach pro-am.

00:23:55.666 --> 00:24:02.923
But oakmont, for me, is just hard-ass golf course old school, classic.

00:24:02.923 --> 00:24:18.147
Thick rough, makes you think around the course the whole entire time, challenging greens, and this was very different in the fact that the greens were such an incredible challenge for everybody.

00:24:18.962 --> 00:24:20.559
Holding fairways was a challenge.

00:24:20.559 --> 00:24:29.984
Hitting out of the native areas and the wire bushes, the wire replants, uh, so annoying um it.

00:24:29.984 --> 00:24:35.401
It was a challenge for everybody and it's not the type of golf these guys play a lot.

00:24:35.401 --> 00:24:49.309
You know they're playing premier golf courses in pristine conditions and this is it's kind of more of a hey, we're gonna let the course fuck with you a lot and let's see how well you do, which is a very unique challenge.

00:24:49.309 --> 00:24:57.450
And I think it's one of the reasons scotty scheffler did not play so great, because it really took away from him his.

00:24:57.450 --> 00:25:02.203
You know what he does and that's hit fairways, hit greens and make putts.

00:25:02.203 --> 00:25:06.753
Um, he, he wasn't hitting fairways, he was all over the place, he wasn't hitting greens.

00:25:06.753 --> 00:25:16.612
His short game is good but it's not that good and his putter I mean those greens just wreaked havoc on him and a lot of people, not just him.

00:25:16.612 --> 00:25:17.641
Um.

00:25:17.641 --> 00:25:20.691
So those are my three storylines that I think.

00:25:20.759 --> 00:25:44.432
Was there anything else that you guys thought may have, um, you know, jumped up in there, that that's worthy of a talk uh, one thing for me a little bit would be the um sunday battle between the amateurs with uh, oh, shipley, yeah, shipley and um and luke clanton way to clean in the same group together, kind of battling it out head-to-head.

00:25:44.451 --> 00:25:45.817
That was pretty cool to watch.

00:25:45.817 --> 00:25:47.866
Way to not show enough of that guys.

00:25:47.866 --> 00:25:49.009
Yeah, for real.

00:25:49.701 --> 00:25:54.269
They aired them like two or three shots, but I was still kind of following on the US Open app.

00:25:55.000 --> 00:25:57.549
Yeah, and what would have happened if they would have tied?

00:25:57.549 --> 00:26:00.249
Who would have won the honors if they would have tied?

00:26:02.020 --> 00:26:02.864
You know, I'm not sure.

00:26:04.167 --> 00:26:08.240
Good question, I'm not sure.

00:26:08.240 --> 00:26:13.332
Good question, I'm not sure, because the the other kid had the putt to tie it on on 18 and missed um wasn't the only one who missed a putt on 18.

00:26:13.332 --> 00:26:15.958
Um, it's true.

00:26:15.958 --> 00:26:18.005
So yeah, that was.

00:26:18.005 --> 00:26:21.372
That was another good story I love, I love the amateurs at at the open.

00:26:21.372 --> 00:26:25.250
That's one of the great things about it they get to challenge.

00:26:25.250 --> 00:26:30.048
There was only two or three made the cut.

00:26:30.048 --> 00:26:31.595
Was it just those two?

00:26:31.595 --> 00:26:34.426
It was small, it was small.

00:26:35.060 --> 00:26:43.665
But still for Shipley to be low-am there and he was low-am at the Masters, he had that crazy side camera.

00:26:48.740 --> 00:26:50.449
He's given himself quite a little resume yeah.

00:26:50.449 --> 00:26:53.362
Does he have another year of golf or is he turning pro after school?

00:26:54.223 --> 00:26:54.825
do you know?

00:26:55.046 --> 00:27:02.531
I'm not sure either yeah, I'm not really big on his uh he's ohio state guy, right, I know he wears the the jack nicholas apparel.

00:27:02.592 --> 00:27:08.585
He's big um yeah, he's gonna have a deal with golden bear or something yeah, I think so.

00:27:10.628 --> 00:27:10.890
See it.

00:27:10.890 --> 00:27:18.285
See, if it that was his senior year, if it's his yeah I don't, I don't recall so all right.

00:27:18.505 --> 00:27:28.554
So my question to you guys bryson has found this new life in being the star um.

00:27:28.554 --> 00:27:47.762
I, I think when he was at um the arnold palmer and he, you know, tried to drive that the well, not try to drive it, he just hit that ridiculous drive on the whatever hole that is and, you know, raised his hands and was chasing after it.

00:27:47.762 --> 00:27:52.511
Yeah, that was like opening the door to his stardom.

00:27:52.511 --> 00:28:08.083
And, uh, not being on the pga tour I think has kind of helped him, because when he plays in these events and he does, well, it's, it's fresh in people's eyes, it's new, it's not.

00:28:08.083 --> 00:28:09.887
Oh well, bryson, thank you.

00:28:09.909 --> 00:28:10.490
Trey six hole.

00:28:10.490 --> 00:28:14.080
Uh, you know, bryson finished 23rd last week.

00:28:14.080 --> 00:28:16.730
Uh, you know, oh, bryson missed the cut here.

00:28:16.730 --> 00:28:27.334
You know he plays so many events and it's just like he's, he's living up to these expectations and performing well and just soaking it all up.

00:28:27.334 --> 00:28:36.169
I've never seen anybody take advantage of these situations like he is, because you don't see any of the other Liv guys doing this.

00:28:36.169 --> 00:28:38.339
You don't see any of them hyping themselves up.

00:28:38.339 --> 00:28:40.086
Well, they're not playing for shit, so it doesn't really matter.

00:28:40.086 --> 00:28:44.905
But how much do you think of this?

00:28:44.905 --> 00:28:47.931
Is genuine bryson or it's?

00:28:47.931 --> 00:28:55.313
I need to do this to help people forget that I left for live, or do you think that's even in his mind?

00:28:58.443 --> 00:29:03.210
I think it's probably in his mind, but I I feel like it's sort of the real Bryson.

00:29:03.210 --> 00:29:09.765
I mean, he does have the YouTube stuff and does all the stuff with the other good good and all those guys.

00:29:09.765 --> 00:29:27.248
But like the, I think he, I think he must have gone through some sort of transformation where he either realized maybe he wasn't popular with the people and maybe figured out why, and maybe the whole YouTube thing is part of that.

00:29:27.248 --> 00:29:29.667
It's just to to like refresh his image.

00:29:29.667 --> 00:29:32.489
But I don't think it's a fake thing, I think it's.

00:29:32.489 --> 00:29:34.866
I think it might be the real Bryson.

00:29:34.980 --> 00:29:45.105
He, he's always sort of been the villain before, but now he's sort of the hero and maybe he just it's just a change that he made and I think it's refreshing.

00:29:45.105 --> 00:29:46.509
Honestly, I think it's awesome.

00:29:46.509 --> 00:29:59.065
I liked him as a villain but I think it's cool that he's sort of a fan Like he just really he can relate with the fans and he put, you know, he just the interactions he has.

00:29:59.065 --> 00:29:59.989
I think that's important.

00:29:59.989 --> 00:30:13.569
I think it maybe makes it more human and I think dialing back the whole power thing that he was going through the last few years of gaining weight and not eating, you know, eating weird stuff, and it was just like all about speed and power.

00:30:13.569 --> 00:30:21.568
I think he'd probably just had a transformation of a person and his game and it all came together at the same time.

00:30:22.951 --> 00:30:23.471
Hi Joe.

00:30:25.053 --> 00:30:25.594
What's up A?

00:30:25.993 --> 00:30:27.596
little tired, buddy A little tired.

00:30:29.200 --> 00:30:33.209
We're at 430 this morning and yeah.

00:30:34.811 --> 00:30:35.334
Just drove out.

00:30:35.334 --> 00:30:48.303
So we're right now we're I don't know how much you were listening to as you were uh getting getting on, but uh, we're talking about bryson and his resurgence as a popular, uh fan favorite.

00:30:48.303 --> 00:30:52.189
Um, people chanting usa, usa, bryson.

00:30:52.189 --> 00:30:56.381
I mean he is doing all the right things, right?

00:30:56.381 --> 00:30:57.045
He's saying all the right things.

00:30:57.066 --> 00:30:57.810
He's doing all the right things right.

00:30:57.830 --> 00:30:58.113
He is for sure.

00:30:58.113 --> 00:31:00.685
He's saying all the right things, he's doing all the right things.

00:31:00.685 --> 00:31:08.993
He had a big comment where he was talking about his faith and religion.

00:31:08.993 --> 00:31:14.490
He is staying after and signing autographs.

00:31:14.490 --> 00:31:16.325
Cinco wants to go for a walk.

00:31:16.325 --> 00:31:26.319
He's hanging out in bunkers with Johnson Wagner afterwards he's going on Fallon and just people are touching the trophy.

00:31:26.319 --> 00:31:39.682
I mean he's, he's doing everything right and it just, you know, in the back of my head I want to believe that this is him being true, but it's also.

00:31:39.682 --> 00:31:41.528
Is it for views?

00:31:41.528 --> 00:31:42.430
Is it for clicks?

00:31:42.711 --> 00:31:56.644
is it for I mentioned this to trey um, because he is doing everything great right and maybe you know with what live provided him like the freedom to do more and um doesn't have to stress about that, yeah, I don't know like he's doing everything right.

00:31:56.644 --> 00:32:00.015
Yeah, I don't know Like he's doing everything right, is it true?

00:32:00.015 --> 00:32:03.009
I don't know, and maybe that's just him, like his personality.

00:32:06.361 --> 00:32:07.507
Maybe that's just his personality.

00:32:07.680 --> 00:32:12.511
Like he comes off like not truthful and I don't know, but he is doing it right.

00:32:12.511 --> 00:32:15.701
Um, and it's good to see Cause.

00:32:15.701 --> 00:32:19.672
I wasn't the huge crisis man, but he's turned me over a bit as of late.

00:32:21.740 --> 00:32:23.428
By doing and saying all the right things.

00:32:23.428 --> 00:32:28.251
It's hard to not be a fan or to like him.

00:32:28.251 --> 00:32:54.630
Aaron Pusey had a great post today where he was talking about some of the interactions that he had with him back in Texas, and it's like those stories aren't out there enough of of him being amazing with fan base being amazing with, just you know, average day, joe golfers, um, and you wonder how many of those stories aren't known?

00:32:54.630 --> 00:32:57.555
Um, right, and why?

00:32:57.555 --> 00:32:58.916
Why aren't they known you?

00:32:58.957 --> 00:33:01.500
know I I read an interesting article.

00:33:01.500 --> 00:33:21.785
I I can't even remember who said it, but it was like golf has always sort of been reluctant to like, accept new minds and different ways of thinking in golf and bryson's definitely like with his equipment and his you know, know, chase, you know what he's chasing, speed, and all that a few years ago.

00:33:21.785 --> 00:33:24.961
I think there's part of it that maybe he's not.

00:33:24.961 --> 00:33:28.193
He doesn't fit the conventional mold of a golfer, like a pro golfer.

00:33:28.193 --> 00:33:30.281
When he came you started doing all that.

00:33:30.281 --> 00:33:48.494
But I think after COVID with the explosion of golf, you have a bunch of new people that don't know the history of golf or don't know those traditions, and you have this person that relates to them, does YouTube, social media, you know, gets pumped up with the fans, talks to them, interacts with them.

00:33:48.494 --> 00:33:55.473
I think that's he's sort of the savior of golf for them, for that sort of group of people maybe.

00:33:56.539 --> 00:33:58.723
Yep, I see that 100 percent.

00:34:00.446 --> 00:34:00.567
It's.

00:34:00.567 --> 00:34:03.172
It's not a bad thing, um.

00:34:03.172 --> 00:34:05.782
You know, to rob rob made a point here.

00:34:05.782 --> 00:34:10.503
You know the rider cup and golf and olympic golf team needs bryson representing usa.

00:34:10.503 --> 00:34:16.501
He's a very big pro usa guy and and that would be awesome and cyrus in a or.

00:34:16.561 --> 00:34:24.621
Cyrus made a post earlier on instagram talking about how it's a disgrace that he's not representing you know, and I said to him he chose not to play and he goes what?

00:34:24.621 --> 00:34:25.103
What do you mean?

00:34:25.103 --> 00:34:25.905
He chose not to play.

00:34:25.905 --> 00:34:27.791
Yeah, as soon as he signed that live contract.

00:34:27.791 --> 00:34:31.208
You know, he chose not to play in the writer cup.

00:34:31.208 --> 00:34:32.711
He chose not to play in the olympics.

00:34:32.711 --> 00:34:35.967
Um, owgr points is how they decide it.

00:34:35.967 --> 00:34:38.050
Is that the greatest way to decide it?

00:34:38.050 --> 00:34:39.494
Probably not.

00:34:39.494 --> 00:34:47.465
Um, I think the, the country, should at least have a say in who they want representing um on their team.

00:34:47.465 --> 00:34:57.867
But it's, you know, that's, I think, in order for the golf to get back into the olympics, the, the olympic committee, said we're going to go by the world ranking points and that way there's no questions.

00:34:57.867 --> 00:34:58.333
You know there's no uh.

00:34:58.333 --> 00:34:59.744
You know there's no uh.

00:35:00.099 --> 00:35:03.090
This person getting in that shouldn't be in there, not deserving whatever.

00:35:03.090 --> 00:35:20.943
I don't know the exact reasons why, but that's why he's not there, that's why he's not going to be in the Ryder cup, because, well, I, he could be on the Ryder cup, he, I could see him being picked.

00:35:20.943 --> 00:35:22.971
Yeah, he can get a captain's pick, as long as Zach Johnson's not.

00:35:22.971 --> 00:35:23.351
That's a year away.

00:35:23.351 --> 00:35:25.039
It's a year away, of course it would be.

00:35:25.039 --> 00:35:27.728
Yeah, it would be totally more entertaining.

00:35:27.728 --> 00:35:31.911
You know, he's doing all the right things.

00:35:31.911 --> 00:35:35.389
I still can't believe he won the US Open and threw that ball to the crowd.

00:35:35.389 --> 00:35:35.891
That's I mean.

00:35:35.891 --> 00:35:37.576
Yeah, going in the pockets open and threw that ball to the crowd.

00:35:37.576 --> 00:35:38.177
That that's I mean.

00:35:38.177 --> 00:35:43.331
Yeah, going in the pocket no, I mean yeah, wild stuff.

00:35:43.371 --> 00:35:43.972
So all right.

00:35:43.972 --> 00:35:44.675
So the next.

00:35:44.675 --> 00:35:48.963
The next topic was was rory and uh.

00:35:48.963 --> 00:35:56.181
So uh, for those that are just tuning in, possibly uh, have a poll question on the youtube channel.

00:35:56.181 --> 00:36:00.693
Um, was rory wrong for not sticking around and congratulating Bryson?

00:36:00.693 --> 00:36:05.750
Let's see if I can see what the I can't see right now.

00:36:05.750 --> 00:36:09.063
Did we lose Joe already?

00:36:10.327 --> 00:36:10.547
Yeah.

00:36:11.168 --> 00:36:11.771
I guess so.

00:36:11.771 --> 00:36:15.929
So Rory's taking the heat for this.

00:36:15.929 --> 00:36:18.025
Dan, you've already said it.

00:36:18.025 --> 00:36:21.909
Okay, dan, you've said it.

00:36:21.909 --> 00:36:29.751
You think he's winning the open where it's at Royal Troon.

00:36:29.751 --> 00:36:30.311
Is that where it's at?

00:36:30.311 --> 00:36:35.409
Royal Troon where did where is the?

00:36:35.409 --> 00:36:37.072
Where did he win the open at?

00:36:37.072 --> 00:36:42.869
Trey will know where did he win the Open at Trey Trey's on?

00:36:42.869 --> 00:36:43.311
Trey will know.

00:36:43.311 --> 00:36:43.992
Oh, he's probably driving.

00:36:44.052 --> 00:36:45.715
Yeah, Trey's more, Was it Port.

00:36:45.715 --> 00:36:51.947
Yeah, it was Royal Port Rush I think you want to be.

00:36:52.146 --> 00:36:53.789
Well, do you want me to send you the link?

00:36:53.789 --> 00:36:55.211
Are you home yet, Trey?

00:36:55.211 --> 00:36:56.494
We can get you on here.

00:36:56.494 --> 00:37:06.086
Joe's checked out, so there he is, so much to say.

00:37:06.106 --> 00:37:07.188
There's Royal Liverpool.

00:37:08.170 --> 00:37:08.891
Royal Liverpool.

00:37:08.891 --> 00:37:13.146
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Greenlee, I'll send you the link too.

00:37:13.146 --> 00:37:14.585
You guys want to hop on.

00:37:14.585 --> 00:37:16.467
We got room for plenty of people here.

00:37:16.619 --> 00:37:18.005
If you guys want to get on and chat about this.

00:37:19.880 --> 00:37:23.231
You know, rory, there's a lot to talk about with him.

00:37:23.231 --> 00:37:25.146
There's still a lot to talk about with Bryson.

00:37:25.146 --> 00:37:26.947
We haven't even gotten to Pinehurst yet.

00:37:26.947 --> 00:37:28.105
We were waiting for Joe for that.

00:37:28.105 --> 00:37:34.972
So here you guys, tell me what your thoughts are on Rory.

00:37:34.972 --> 00:37:38.690
You know we kind of talked a little bit about him leaving and whatnot.

00:37:38.690 --> 00:37:46.983
But I'd me what your thoughts are on rory.

00:37:46.983 --> 00:37:50.413
Um, you know we kind of talked a little bit about him leaving and whatnot, but I'd love to hear what you guys think about how he played.

00:37:50.413 --> 00:37:51.655
I mean, he's got a bunch of second places now in majors.

00:37:51.655 --> 00:37:55.181
I think he's up to four, um, and and so let me hear it, let me hear what you got, and I'll send these guys links see if they want to come on.

00:37:55.181 --> 00:38:00.505
Don't everybody talk at once?

00:38:00.965 --> 00:38:01.505
He played.

00:38:01.505 --> 00:38:09.110
We sort of talked about it a little bit, but I don't think sticking around is a traditional thing for most players.

00:38:09.110 --> 00:38:16.855
I mean, if he was good buddies with Bryson, sure he'd be one of the guys waiting for him, but it's just not who he is.

00:38:16.855 --> 00:38:21.838
It's not who Tiger was, it's not who a lot of the guys that are like that are.

00:38:21.838 --> 00:38:25.981
They don't.

00:38:25.981 --> 00:38:29.630
I mean, of course he was like devastated and he choked or whatever you want to call it.

00:38:29.630 --> 00:38:33.666
I mean he whatever, and I don't think I think it's a non-topic.

00:38:33.666 --> 00:38:43.148
I think people make a huge deal out of nothing just because it's Rory and he sort of was the bad guy with Liv.

00:38:43.148 --> 00:38:51.393
He's been the guy that's maybe not the most friendly with fans overall through the years.

00:38:51.393 --> 00:39:02.909
I just think he's the villain and he's an easy target for people to criticize Everything he does dan which I also think like they can see the good side, like I see.

00:39:03.090 --> 00:39:04.360
They see all the good things he did.

00:39:04.360 --> 00:39:05.603
He played well.

00:39:05.603 --> 00:39:16.889
There's a lot of people that love rory and there's just a lot of people that hate him, just like everyone else yeah, um, I I agree 100 with, uh, what j said.

00:39:18.311 --> 00:39:21.795
You know, it's just, I don't know.

00:39:21.795 --> 00:39:30.126
He's just got a string of bad luck right now when it comes to the majors and you know, until he makes those short butts and wins a major, he's not going to get that monkey off his back.

00:39:30.126 --> 00:39:36.873
And you know, I 100% agree on just people just wanting to be nasty to him.

00:39:36.873 --> 00:39:41.831
You know, because that's what media and social social media does.

00:39:41.831 --> 00:39:49.527
You know, it gives people a platform to just dump and shit on people and for clicks and for likes and stuff, and I think a lot of it's about that.

00:39:49.527 --> 00:39:55.429
I will say this though some of these memes that they put out right away, that were pretty funny, oh my God, it was some good news.

00:39:55.429 --> 00:39:56.231
I will say that.

00:39:57.079 --> 00:40:00.103
They do it anytime, for sure, and it's pretty awesome in that aspect.

00:40:00.204 --> 00:40:09.963
But but you know there's always going to be, you're always going to have naysayers, no matter what you do, and unfortunately it's going to continue now, for the better part, you know, for more than a decade now.

00:40:10.005 --> 00:40:20.894
For Rory it's going to continue until he wins another major yeah, yeah, the last hand of the night and the dealer pulling King 6-5.

00:40:20.894 --> 00:40:26.094
Yeah, that was a great one.

00:40:26.094 --> 00:40:29.394
That was a great one.

00:40:29.394 --> 00:40:33.016
What do we got here?

00:40:33.016 --> 00:40:34.983
They need to be nasty about LeBron leaving early.

00:40:34.983 --> 00:40:35.204
To be fair.

00:40:35.204 --> 00:40:36.307
When did LeBron leave early?

00:40:36.307 --> 00:40:37.793
What am I missing here?

00:40:37.793 --> 00:40:38.273
He always does.

00:40:38.273 --> 00:40:39.717
He always leaves, leaves.

00:40:39.717 --> 00:40:40.219
That's not.

00:40:40.219 --> 00:40:44.260
It's the bounce and Rory step that makes him more unlikable.

00:40:44.260 --> 00:40:51.114
He's playing great.

00:40:51.114 --> 00:40:54.731
Who wouldn't have loved to see the playoff?

00:40:55.346 --> 00:40:56.719
I mean right that would have been great.

00:40:56.719 --> 00:40:59.344
I mean, I had money on Bryson, but I would have loved to see a playoff.

00:40:59.344 --> 00:41:00.307
I mean right, that would have been great.

00:41:00.327 --> 00:41:06.829
I mean, I had money on bryson, but I would have loved to see a playoff the the biggest proponent of pga tour against one of the you know the big names in in live.

00:41:06.829 --> 00:41:08.813
Uh, for the us open.

00:41:08.873 --> 00:41:14.947
I mean god, that would have been just amazing um, kind of wish they still did the 18 hole playoff.

00:41:14.947 --> 00:41:16.409
Oh, I would have been sick.

00:41:16.409 --> 00:41:18.132
Just straight up 18 holes.

00:41:18.813 --> 00:41:26.297
Straight up 18 holes against bryson you know, a monday 18 holer, oh yeah, oh, oh.

00:41:26.297 --> 00:41:28.922
We gotta know he hated losing to a live player.

00:41:28.922 --> 00:41:30.306
And also bryson celebration.

00:41:30.306 --> 00:41:32.652
I, I was fine with the fist pumps.

00:41:32.652 --> 00:41:33.601
I was fine with the yelling.

00:41:33.601 --> 00:41:34.844
I was fine with the high fives.

00:41:34.844 --> 00:41:38.766
I didn't like the little circle jerk bouncing up and down like like they're at a kid and play concert with his little cronies.

00:41:38.766 --> 00:41:39.588
Yeah, that was fine with the high fives.

00:41:39.588 --> 00:41:42.237
I didn't like the little circle jerk bouncing up and down like like they're at a kid and play concert with his little cronies.

00:41:42.237 --> 00:41:48.590
Yeah, that was, that was a little much, um, but uh, yeah, I know you won the us open.

00:41:48.590 --> 00:42:06.686
I mean, yeah, I, I ran around like a fucking teenager when I had my hole in one and that's just me, you know, with you guys, I couldn't imagine being in front of you know 40 000 people to win the us open god, yeah, I mean I think there's a lot to that with bryson too, like he lost his dad fairly recently.

00:42:06.806 --> 00:42:25.889
You know he's a big fan of pain, stewart, that's why he wore the cap and the history of pinehurst with pain, and you know, I think he really wanted that one and I think that, and after that, up and down like sick is up and down, yeah, okay, so did it?

00:42:26.010 --> 00:42:30.530
did it hurt or did it help that johnson wagner in the dark stuck it closer?

00:42:30.530 --> 00:42:38.873
Well, that was secure it was the second shot he played it one over, almost under the fucking clubhouse.

00:42:39.193 --> 00:42:39.815
Okay, all right.

00:42:41.001 --> 00:42:42.628
Okay, I thought that was just the first one.

00:42:43.059 --> 00:42:44.664
Yeah, that was just pure dumb luck, that second one.

00:42:44.684 --> 00:42:46.289
Oh, absolutely, absolutely.

00:42:46.289 --> 00:42:50.347
Uh-oh, here we go, coming to the stage Trey, trey.

00:42:50.347 --> 00:42:52.523
Oh shit, mr Greenscreen.

00:42:52.523 --> 00:43:00.567
What are you on Billiards table there, trey, he's laying down on the billiards table.

00:43:00.567 --> 00:43:03.784
He's got the green screen.

00:43:03.804 --> 00:43:04.105
Hey guys.

00:43:04.125 --> 00:43:04.746
Maybe, maybe not.

00:43:04.746 --> 00:43:11.704
Trey, are you there?

00:43:11.704 --> 00:43:12.648
Come in, trey.

00:43:14.601 --> 00:43:15.807
I don't know why it's a green screen.

00:43:16.840 --> 00:43:18.125
Damn, he got home fast dude.

00:43:18.967 --> 00:43:23.164
Yeah, yeah, ish this is when you run red lights.

00:43:23.164 --> 00:43:25.070
Okay, let me see.

00:43:25.070 --> 00:43:26.219
Oh, I got it, I got it, I got it.

00:43:26.340 --> 00:43:27.344
You got it, okay, all right.

00:43:27.485 --> 00:43:27.666
Yeah.

00:43:29.161 --> 00:43:30.670
That was on my other camera.

00:43:30.692 --> 00:43:31.900
There we go, all right.

00:43:32.161 --> 00:43:33.487
So are we still on the Rory topic.

00:43:33.840 --> 00:43:35.864
Oh yeah, still on, rory yep.

00:43:37.226 --> 00:43:43.262
So when it comes to roar, my two cents on this are yes and no.

00:43:43.262 --> 00:43:44.925
God, look at my hair anyway.

00:43:44.925 --> 00:43:46.769
Uh, you want to see.

00:43:46.909 --> 00:43:47.572
You want to see some hair.

00:43:47.791 --> 00:44:10.768
Look at this so here's the thing I, you know I have I played in high level competitions like us open, no, but I've played in a lot of competitions in my day and I think a lot of people are referencing what bryson did at the pga for the sole fact that if zander missed that putt they would have went into a playoff.

00:44:10.768 --> 00:44:11.150
So he was.

00:44:11.150 --> 00:44:15.407
He was already on the range hitting balls, like waiting for that to happen.

00:44:15.407 --> 00:44:25.047
If he missed that putt now, if bryson was down, you know was four away from the lead, I guarantee you he may have been on the back of the green or he would have left.

00:44:25.704 --> 00:44:26.940
Yeah 100%, you know.

00:44:26.940 --> 00:44:31.186
But talking about, you know, was it the right thing to do or not?

00:44:31.186 --> 00:44:39.592
In the public eye it was absolutely the wrong thing to do because we know Bryson had stuck around and congratulated Zander.

00:44:39.592 --> 00:44:55.914
But from the sole fact of what Jeremy said earlier when I was listening in the car, to stick around is not necessary or mandatory.

00:44:55.914 --> 00:44:56.255
Really.

00:44:56.255 --> 00:44:59.969
It's definitely a sportsman like thing to do.

00:44:59.969 --> 00:45:03.811
Because in other sports it's different.

00:45:03.911 --> 00:45:16.353
You know, in basketball, hockey, football, whatever you're on the field, you're all on you know, you're all on the field, all in the rink with the other team, so you're already saying you know, congratulations and all that.

00:45:16.353 --> 00:45:26.663
You know some people that are more pissed off about losing than others don't say anything and they just leave, and I think that's their right to do so.

00:45:26.663 --> 00:45:52.509
And when it comes to this in particular, what dan said, it just allows for everybody, every golfer, non-golfer to have the opinion and dump their two cents on social media, which the five of us have definitely seen the comments on social media on whether it's good, whether it's bad or indifferent.

00:45:52.909 --> 00:45:58.603
So I believe that I think people care way too much about that stuff.

00:45:58.603 --> 00:46:01.329
Correct, I mean it's so irrelevant?

00:46:01.972 --> 00:46:08.583
It really is, and I think it having the opinions that these people have, it doesn't fucking matter.

00:46:08.583 --> 00:46:11.331
You know we're not Rory, we're not.

00:46:11.331 --> 00:46:13.467
You know we're not the one playing for that.

00:46:13.467 --> 00:46:22.601
And you know the fact that he did what he did, had three bogeys, the last seven holes or eight holes to lose.

00:46:22.601 --> 00:46:47.286
The thing just goes to show like, how much, like I don't know if it was Dan or Jeremy, but you have so much invested into four days at a US Open and with him being in the lead for three and a half, you know, getting the lead with nine more holes to go To do what he did, everybody would have left.

00:46:47.286 --> 00:46:50.411
I don't care who you are, I would have been gone, you know.

00:46:50.431 --> 00:47:05.784
And Rory was the second to last group, so it's not like he had the time to run over to the range and warm up for what it could have been a potential playoff, which it didn't turn out to be, so it was like, all right, he ended.

00:47:05.784 --> 00:47:34.445
Bryson was making 20 million practice swings next to a tree root and so there wasn't exactly time to run over and warm up for 20 minutes, so it was like, ok in, I'm leaving, you know, not to mention all the stuff that happened with his wife, you know, divorcing, not divorcing that going on in his mind, and then also what just happened.

00:47:34.445 --> 00:47:41.101
Like you know, he'll probably take every week off until the British opener, the Scottish open.

00:47:41.543 --> 00:47:42.065
Scottish open.

00:47:42.065 --> 00:47:43.188
He said he's not playing until then.

00:47:44.030 --> 00:47:44.751
Yeah, so he'll.

00:47:44.751 --> 00:48:00.233
You know he's going to probably not touch the clubs until the Scottish open and you know, just put every a bit of mental energy and physical energy into playing those two weeks to get ready for the playoffs.

00:48:01.054 --> 00:48:08.369
Yeah, I think if he had like time, like if he was like four or five groups ahead, like he would have had time to come to terms with what happened.

00:48:08.369 --> 00:48:16.827
Yeah, it just happened, so you know yeah, If he finished, if he finished blame himself for anything.

00:48:17.088 --> 00:48:30.291
If he finished 30, 40 minutes prior to Bryson being on that hole and he's at the range and he's warming up, maybe a different story yeah, correct, I mean especially with the range being at the cradle, he could have very easily walked over there.

00:48:30.331 --> 00:48:31.400
Hey, congratulations.

00:48:31.400 --> 00:48:36.505
You know you played your heart out and that was the best up up and down I've seen in five years.

00:48:38.887 --> 00:48:39.869
Bad break for Rory.

00:48:39.869 --> 00:48:43.693
I think he was 498 from that distance, so impressive.

00:48:43.813 --> 00:48:45.894
I mean that's a hell of a stat.

00:48:45.894 --> 00:48:50.568
I mean that's Tiger-level, donald-level stats right there.

00:48:50.568 --> 00:48:55.510
As far as putting is concerned, yeah, and you know much like the Augusta.

00:48:55.510 --> 00:49:03.273
You know pretty much every major when it's this tight doesn't really start until the back nine of the fourth round.

00:49:05.681 --> 00:49:09.512
Hey, I'm 0 for 2 from three feet to shoot a PB.

00:49:11.141 --> 00:49:17.306
It's hard, man it's not easy it's tough, and especially when you're trying to do that, I mean hell.

00:49:17.306 --> 00:49:24.748
Tom Brady is arguably the best quarterback of all time, and he still lost two Super Bowls to the Giants.

00:49:24.748 --> 00:49:36.646
You know and that's a sport, you know, michael Jordan lost in the playoffs until he made it to the finals in 91, and then he rattled off six in a row.

00:49:36.646 --> 00:49:38.385
It could have been eight in a row.

00:49:38.385 --> 00:49:39.501
He just had a break.

00:49:39.621 --> 00:49:41.344
Yeah, you know so.

00:49:41.344 --> 00:49:45.873
And all these comments, I see you know I've been bad about it lately.

00:49:45.873 --> 00:49:48.387
I've tried not to comment on on social media.

00:49:48.387 --> 00:49:58.853
I'm really refraining from not being a big asshole on social media, but it's, you know all these people, all these people on social media.

00:49:58.853 --> 00:50:04.112
Like you can't break 90, so get over yourself good lord.

00:50:04.793 --> 00:50:08.983
Anyway, I all I know is the crank driver driver's going on ebay.

00:50:09.704 --> 00:50:16.367
So oh this is the perfect time to sell the crank driver time to sell the crank driver I'd be.

00:50:16.367 --> 00:50:22.280
I didn't hear some news today, so we'll probably have to tell you on what yeah, I would keep that news offline for sure.

00:50:28.568 --> 00:50:29.789
You know I'd be.

00:50:29.789 --> 00:50:31.132
I was.

00:50:31.132 --> 00:50:42.534
I don't know what post it was it might have been rapaport or somebody I saw on instagram last night and and they talked about crank, having different drivers for swing speeds.

00:50:42.534 --> 00:50:50.646
And exactly Rob, exactly hey, we get to play with eight-inch cups in two weeks so that should be fun.

00:50:54.885 --> 00:51:04.413
You know as a golf nerd, you know if you're the mayor of Tinkertown and I'm the deputy mayor of Tinkertown, I'd be interested in trying it out.

00:51:04.413 --> 00:51:11.983
I wouldn't say I'm making a switch, I'm hitting the tireless driver, probably better than any driver I've hit in the last five years.

00:51:11.983 --> 00:51:22.548
I would love the opportunity to try maybe not Bryson's five degree version, but a version that I could.

00:51:22.548 --> 00:51:24.889
I got it, I got it.

00:51:25.090 --> 00:51:25.510
I got it.

00:51:25.510 --> 00:51:28.231
I think it's an eight degree or in the eight or nine.

00:51:28.731 --> 00:51:32.554
If they had a nine degree or even an eight degree, I can probably buy.

00:51:32.554 --> 00:51:35.175
That's not six hundred dollars and I'd probably mess around with it.

00:51:35.215 --> 00:51:36.657
Is that Trevor's old one or no?

00:51:37.737 --> 00:51:39.657
I don't remember where the hell it came from.

00:51:40.239 --> 00:51:41.384
Because Trevor used to poke that thing.

00:51:41.384 --> 00:51:42.509
Trevor used to have one right.

00:51:42.981 --> 00:51:43.903
Maybe that's where it came from.

00:51:43.903 --> 00:51:44.847
I have no idea.

00:51:44.847 --> 00:51:46.706
I have no idea.

00:51:46.706 --> 00:51:48.465
Some of the stuff I look at in the shop.

00:51:48.465 --> 00:51:51.648
I'm like where the hell did this come from?

00:51:52.320 --> 00:52:03.882
I'd be willing to try that driver in like a regular like a 46 to 46 inch regular.

00:52:03.922 --> 00:52:05.204
It'd be a fucking be a spaghetti noodle.

00:52:05.204 --> 00:52:05.967
Oh, that would be hilarious, it's.

00:52:05.967 --> 00:52:18.210
Maybe it's remember uh uh miles played it when, because he didn't have his club, so I put together a set and he played it out at matt's walls, that's right thing is obnoxiously loud oh, I imagine but it's not.

00:52:18.610 --> 00:52:24.445
You know, nike squash loud, it's, it's just, it's just doesn't sound normal.

00:52:24.445 --> 00:52:27.472
It's kind of it's got that de marini sound to it.

00:52:27.472 --> 00:52:31.106
So all right.

00:52:31.106 --> 00:52:34.393
So the less the last thing does it come in a lefty julian.

00:52:34.393 --> 00:52:39.952
You know you're not gonna play a crank driver um now, when he gets his gloves for free.

00:52:40.231 --> 00:52:43.606
Yeah, last thing on the.

00:52:43.606 --> 00:52:52.864
So I'm sure you guys heard when we were talking I said the three main topics were Bryce and Rory Pinehurst and then Dan added the amateurs, but the golf course.

00:52:52.864 --> 00:52:54.385
So let's talk about the golf course.

00:52:54.385 --> 00:53:09.222
And we waited for Joe to be here because we know he's the the architect nerd of the of the group um, and I I said earlier that you know this wasn't your.

00:53:10.284 --> 00:53:11.969
These guys aren't used to playing this type of golf.

00:53:11.969 --> 00:53:13.231
You know they're, they're.

00:53:13.231 --> 00:53:17.188
They're used to lush conditions, maybe some thick rough, maybe some short rough.

00:53:17.188 --> 00:53:20.161
Uh, greens that you know hold the ball.

00:53:20.161 --> 00:53:26.742
Um, that pretty much the effective green is what you see, not this illusion that donald ross created.

00:53:26.742 --> 00:53:37.344
Um, so I'm curious what you guys think of of this type of event for, uh, our national championship in golf.

00:53:37.344 --> 00:53:48.568
If having the guys have this type of challenge where they're playing that, this type of golf that they don't normally play, is, is a good for the U S open.

00:53:49.510 --> 00:53:51.483
Yes, yeah, I thought it was fantastic.

00:53:51.483 --> 00:53:53.590
I mean I make it.

00:53:53.590 --> 00:53:55.465
I mean it obviously is hard.

00:53:55.465 --> 00:54:06.173
Make it as hard as possible because you know, in Adam, in our chat thing, you know they're all playing the same golf course.

00:54:06.173 --> 00:54:09.244
Okay, nobody has an advantage playing the course.

00:54:09.244 --> 00:54:11.869
Right, make it as hard as you want to.

00:54:11.869 --> 00:54:12.891
Who cares?

00:54:12.891 --> 00:54:13.974
They're all playing the same thing.

00:54:13.974 --> 00:54:16.585
Let them complain, let it be borderline.

00:54:16.585 --> 00:54:17.507
You, you know.

00:54:17.507 --> 00:54:20.802
Still, the cream is going to rise to the top at that given week.

00:54:20.802 --> 00:54:22.887
I thought it was fantastic.

00:54:22.887 --> 00:54:29.666
I I love seeing balls come back at him and them missing in bad places, because it made the good shots even better.

00:54:29.666 --> 00:54:33.322
Yes, bryson, getting up and down from some of those spots.

00:54:33.322 --> 00:54:41.001
We, like you, can't tell on tv how hard some of those shots were oh and for him to do what they did.

00:54:41.784 --> 00:54:47.445
I mean you, they are hard, you can tell right, but if you're there in person it's way harder than you actually think it is.

00:54:47.445 --> 00:54:50.277
You know, and I thought, I thought it was great, I loved it.

00:54:50.918 --> 00:55:06.728
yeah, you know, being fortunate enough to play there in 2019, I was talking about it with my friend that went with me and it is probably the top two hardest golf courses I've ever played in my life.

00:55:06.728 --> 00:55:23.603
Now I obviously I wasn't playing in like prime us open condition, but when you miss the fairway like, you're fucked Like and for Bryson missing as many fairways as he did oh my god, he got he got he got very lucky.

00:55:24.106 --> 00:55:46.313
he got very fortunate and really lucky to be able to have the ball in the places that he had it, and even he said in interviews that his clubs are so upright that him being able to hit certain shots based on where those I don't know what they were calling it those bushes or those, whatever the hell, we'll just call it Wiry grass.

00:55:46.353 --> 00:55:47.275
Wiry grass.

00:55:48.081 --> 00:55:57.110
You know, with him, being able to have clubs that are more upright is a lot easier to possibly get through the wiry grass than a standard lie angle.

00:55:57.110 --> 00:55:58.132
You know.

00:55:59.333 --> 00:56:01.835
Golf club eight iron, seven iron, whatever you want to call it.

00:56:01.835 --> 00:56:08.043
So that is, you know that.

00:56:08.043 --> 00:56:12.893
And when it comes to those style greens, joe's right, it had you know.

00:56:12.893 --> 00:56:20.773
This is the hardest test of golf 9,000 people are qualifying for this to make it to a U?

00:56:20.773 --> 00:56:28.059
S open, and next year's at Oakmont, which is arguably the hardest venue of all venues, you know.

00:56:28.059 --> 00:56:32.369
I think just Dustin Johnson wanted it like five under, six under.

00:56:32.369 --> 00:56:36.644
So it's great to see a us open, not get to 10 under par.

00:56:36.644 --> 00:56:49.570
You know, after they shot an opening 65 on the first day, I'm like shit, we're gonna see another 15 under us open, but the usga, you know, clapped back.

00:56:49.570 --> 00:57:01.668
And Joe is right, cream will rise to the top, people will miss cuts, and it's just being able to put the ball in the right spot at the right time.

00:57:03.501 --> 00:57:14.514
Here's my question, though the PGA Tour and I know this isn't a PGA tour event, but the the PGA tour plays the whole season.

00:57:14.514 --> 00:57:18.210
Not on a golf course like this, Correct, Not.

00:57:18.210 --> 00:57:29.052
Not with native areas like this, not with greens that were designed, you know, for playing golf in, not this era.

00:57:29.052 --> 00:57:55.990
I mean no disrespect to Donald Ross, arguably one of the greatest golf architects of all time, but that that those greens, being that fast it's, it's not the the really, really good shots don't get rewarded because these guys, those shots that they normally hit on the golf courses throughout the rest of the year, they get rewarded for that.

00:57:55.990 --> 00:57:59.820
I mean, I saw so many balls where they're hitting an 8-iron into the green.

00:57:59.820 --> 00:58:06.485
It lands 10 feet short of the flag, bounces, stops, rolls and then it's 60 feet off the green.

00:58:06.485 --> 00:58:07.789
I mean there's.

00:58:08.601 --> 00:58:09.764
Yeah, but here's the thing is.

00:58:09.764 --> 00:58:16.670
At that point you're not hitting the shot that the course is calling for at that time yeah, no, I, I get that, but I'm.

00:58:16.809 --> 00:58:22.588
What I'm saying is, though, is is that why bryson won?

00:58:22.588 --> 00:58:27.864
Because he was hitting the shots the course called for, or I don't know?

00:58:27.864 --> 00:58:30.289
I just I, I think it's, I think, bright.

00:58:30.530 --> 00:58:32.333
Bryson got really lucky off the tee.

00:58:32.333 --> 00:58:40.384
He that could have been really bad incredibly, bryson won because of his up and down game around the greens, correct?

00:58:40.644 --> 00:58:47.806
and clutch putts at at certain times like that, up and down on what was that, eight, nine, I can't remember where.

00:58:47.806 --> 00:58:52.824
He was in the back he had to make a 10 footer, like at that point in the in the tournament.

00:58:52.824 --> 00:58:55.882
That could have been a two, three-shot swing If he didn't make that.

00:58:55.882 --> 00:58:58.311
It was like 12, 15 feet something.

00:58:58.311 --> 00:59:00.929
It was a monster putt and he drained it.

00:59:00.929 --> 00:59:07.605
I think Bryson won it because he made some killer up and downs that last day from some tough spots.

00:59:07.605 --> 00:59:08.628
That's where he won it.

00:59:11.719 --> 00:59:12.884
He didn't win it off the tee, that's for sure.

00:59:12.884 --> 00:59:14.469
Oh god, no, no, I don't.

00:59:14.469 --> 00:59:15.431
I don't think he won it off the tee.

00:59:15.431 --> 00:59:21.913
So many people know weren't in condition contention because of the tee I just I just I, I think it's.

00:59:22.715 --> 00:59:41.945
It's such a unique challenge and a lot of these guys aren't aren't used to playing golf like that, and so how quickly you can adapt to it and how quickly your mindset changes and how quickly you can get into the, the game mode that you need to be into and and adapt, I think that is amazing.

00:59:41.945 --> 00:59:50.688
Yeah, um, I mean I'd like to see more of that type of challenging golf on the tour yeah, instead.

00:59:50.688 --> 00:59:53.505
Of once every five, six years at Pinehurst.

00:59:54.201 --> 01:00:03.266
Well, I think leading, and I think the tournaments leading up to the U S open, the Memorial, bay Hill, tpc.

01:00:03.266 --> 01:00:09.371
Well, Scotty shot 64 in the last day at TPC, but still a hard golf course.

01:00:09.371 --> 01:00:31.907
You know the Memorial had on-normally a lot of wind it had a lot of wind that week and Jack was saying that over the weekend and you know Scotty won what 9-under, 10-under, something like that instead of probably what could have been 16, 17, 18 under without the wind.

01:00:31.907 --> 01:00:37.159
So I think there should be a balance of scores.

01:00:37.159 --> 01:00:45.987
But at the same time, you know, I'd love to see what scores were back in the nineties and early two thousands, you know, before Tiger.

01:00:45.987 --> 01:00:50.889
But Tiger won the U S open or you know, the British open at St Andrews at 18 under.

01:00:50.889 --> 01:00:59.393
And I think when Tiger did what he did for as long as he did, it had to raise everybody's level to be that much better.

01:00:59.393 --> 01:01:00.882
And that's what.

01:01:00.882 --> 01:01:05.472
That's why kids are destroying these golf courses now.

01:01:05.472 --> 01:01:10.289
I mean, look at, they said, gordon sergeant led the field at like 350 yards for the week.

01:01:10.289 --> 01:01:12.213
That's ridiculous.

01:01:12.213 --> 01:01:14.688
The kid weighs 175 pounds.

01:01:17.961 --> 01:01:34.335
Going back to Joe's point, a US Open is designed for you to be the best you can possibly be that week to be able to perform and place and win.

01:01:34.335 --> 01:01:38.351
And it requires you what's up, little man.

01:01:38.351 --> 01:01:44.992
It requires you to be the best golfer that you need to be to perform.

01:01:44.992 --> 01:01:51.210
And sometimes you're right Hitting an eight iron that goes over because you landed it where you wanted to land.

01:01:51.210 --> 01:01:52.192
It was the best shot you could have hit.

01:01:52.192 --> 01:01:55.260
You're right hitting an eight iron that goes over because you landed it where you wanted to land.

01:01:55.260 --> 01:01:58.860
It was the best shot you could have hit.

01:01:58.860 --> 01:02:02.304
But if you landed it eight feet closer it might have stayed on the green or 12 feet away instead of 10 feet away.

01:02:02.405 --> 01:02:08.351
So I believe that that test is what is that?

01:02:08.351 --> 01:02:10.293
That test is what is the U?

01:02:10.293 --> 01:02:13.836
S open is supposed to be about and what it has evolved to.

01:02:13.836 --> 01:02:27.264
And I think it was a fantastic showing of the USGA really putting together a quality golf course.

01:02:27.264 --> 01:02:37.490
And you're right, you know, every course, every course that we see week in and week out, it's lush, it's green, there's very little brown spots, certainly no native area.

01:02:37.490 --> 01:02:47.806
You know, I think the most brown we might see on a golf course week in and week out, maybe every time they go play the american express in uj west you know, because they because they

01:02:47.947 --> 01:02:48.547
oversee it.

01:02:48.547 --> 01:02:50.811
It and and the and the rough is dormant.

01:02:50.811 --> 01:02:59.690
So I think for the U S open, it has to be the hardest test in golf, because it is.

01:02:59.690 --> 01:03:09.652
It's just, that's just how it's been and how it's always how it's always been, and I think the tougher they make it, the better.

01:03:09.652 --> 01:03:13.911
Now, obviously, there is a line that can be crossed.

01:03:13.911 --> 01:03:28.172
You're not going to be putting, you know, mitch's revenge to 2022, mitch's revenge kind of pin locations out there, but it shouldn't be an easy task.

01:03:28.172 --> 01:03:40.204
I should say that you know, 2019 might've been an easy task for most of those guys, but it rained a lot, you know, and that's something that the USGA has no control over, and they do their best with what they got.

01:03:40.900 --> 01:03:46.126
Did you see that post where um the crowd was billing the guy watering the greens.

01:03:46.626 --> 01:03:48.030
Yeah.

01:03:48.572 --> 01:03:50.050
I mean that says it all right there, man.

01:03:50.059 --> 01:03:54.353
The fans wanted carnage yeah, I mean that says it all right there, man.

01:03:54.353 --> 01:04:00.681
The fans wanted carnage, yeah, and I think, oh, they got it, they did you know.

01:04:00.681 --> 01:04:14.760
I believe that is, uh, that is the way to go in a us, open for sure, and watering the green like that just allows for it to be playable, probably correct, not as difficult but still on a level that requires the perfect shot at the right time.

01:04:15.041 --> 01:04:20.952
Yeah, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, yep all right.

01:04:21.012 --> 01:04:27.179
I mean dan, dan, you've played, you know you used to play some, you know some high level events, and same with jeremy.

01:04:27.179 --> 01:04:37.275
I mean, what's your thoughts on, you know, playing a course that is not unplayable but is the word of the week, borderline?

01:04:41.159 --> 01:04:50.300
Well, I mean, I don't, actually, if I can really recall any course that I've ever played in any kind of tournaments has been borderline.

01:04:50.300 --> 01:04:52.956
I can really recall any course that I've ever played in any kind of tournaments has been borderline.

01:04:52.956 --> 01:05:10.061
I've seen a lot on TV, especially when one that comes to mind was the US Open at Chinnokuk I think that was early 2000s where they were literally syringing the greens in between groups, like one group would play 15 and then a crew would come out and squirt that green.

01:05:10.061 --> 01:05:11.266
The next group would come up and play.

01:05:11.266 --> 01:05:12.987
It was nothing like I've ever seen.

01:05:14.920 --> 01:05:17.429
But like you said, trey, it's the US Open.

01:05:17.429 --> 01:05:18.885
It shouldn't be easy to win.

01:05:18.885 --> 01:05:31.913
This is definitely the biggest and hardest event to win and unfortunately, yeah, you don't ever want to see a course get lost, but also that's kind of what you need, because these guys are that fucking good.

01:05:31.913 --> 01:05:37.260
Um, you know, even if you were to have one of the toughest, hardest courses, you get a night of rain.

01:05:37.260 --> 01:05:38.824
They're gonna tear it up the next morning.

01:05:38.824 --> 01:05:41.048
You know that these guys are just they're.

01:05:41.048 --> 01:05:47.362
They're the best at what they do, they are the best to at adapting to the other sets.

01:05:47.362 --> 01:05:48.586
And that, mr, it's for the day.

01:05:48.708 --> 01:05:49.510
Oh shit, hell yeah.

01:05:49.510 --> 01:05:54.929
Dan was saying something like oh shit, hell yeah.

01:05:54.929 --> 01:05:55.110
Ike too.

01:05:55.110 --> 01:06:05.916
But, like I said, these guys are the best at what they do, so they can easily adapt to whatever situations come up.

01:06:05.916 --> 01:06:09.186
I thought that this US Open was absolutely perfect.

01:06:09.186 --> 01:06:10.791
Like this is the way it should be.

01:06:10.791 --> 01:06:14.507
There shouldn't be 10 under 12, under 14, under 18, underscore.

01:06:14.507 --> 01:06:16.164
It should be even.

01:06:16.164 --> 01:06:19.427
That's what they used to say back in the day.

01:06:19.427 --> 01:06:23.630
You put four rounds, even together, your chances are you're going to win the US Open.

01:06:23.630 --> 01:06:35.112
I don't know if it's because of technology, because of the different courses they use now, but I love to see golf courses kick their ass.

01:06:35.112 --> 01:06:38.346
I love to see these pros bitch and I want to see more of that.

01:06:38.346 --> 01:06:47.347
Unfortunately, it doesn't really work like that, because these courses are kind of few and far between, and you know Well, it's after this.

01:06:48.983 --> 01:06:54.233
And seeing the feedback from everybody how much they enjoyed it.

01:06:54.233 --> 01:06:56.648
I can't wait to see what they do at Oakmont.

01:06:56.648 --> 01:06:58.706
I mean, I don't want to see Oakmont dried out.

01:06:58.706 --> 01:07:00.170
Oakmont is stunning.

01:07:00.170 --> 01:07:09.226
No, but, I would love to see some bring those fairways in even more and make that rough, even thicker.

01:07:09.949 --> 01:07:11.768
Oh yeah, six-inch rough, six-inch, eight-inch rough.

01:07:11.768 --> 01:07:12.159
And then bring those fairways in about five yards on that rough, even thicker.

01:07:12.159 --> 01:07:12.534
Six inch rough, six inch, eight inch rough.

01:07:12.534 --> 01:07:15.606
And then bring those fairways in about five yards on each side.

01:07:16.521 --> 01:07:48.126
I think Oakmont so high did I think Oakmont has the sub air system underneath the turf there and to Dan's credit and what we've been talking about is the US Open you should be severely may not be the right word, but you should be highly punished when you miss the fairway at a US Open.

01:07:48.126 --> 01:08:08.376
When you missed the fairway at a US Open and there was a lot of that with the native area at Pinehurst and it worked in Bryson's favor all day Sunday, missing nine, ten fairways that he missed to be able to do what he did and come away with it.

01:08:08.376 --> 01:08:20.462
Because when he hit it in the bunker on 18, I immediately thought, oh, that's a five, that's what I thought.

01:08:20.462 --> 01:08:30.863
But I'm like playoff, you know, and for any of us I mean lord knows, like smiley kaufman's tweet, lord knows, I probably would have hit it over the freaking over the building into the damn parking lot because did you see pinehurst response to that?

01:08:31.784 --> 01:08:33.408
no they covered it like.

01:08:33.408 --> 01:08:43.061
That's why we constantly retrieve balls from the roof and they're gonna start retrieving a lot more, because you know everybody's gonna go out there and try that shot now.

01:08:43.202 --> 01:08:46.609
But but the crazy thing is oh yeah, I mean it's.

01:08:46.609 --> 01:08:52.610
Pinehurst is gonna be a six hour round now, because everybody's just want to go to that bunker and try that shot.

01:08:54.601 --> 01:08:55.385
With a tree root.

01:08:55.385 --> 01:08:56.389
Right.

01:08:56.921 --> 01:08:59.029
No, I mean no one, go over there.

01:08:59.029 --> 01:09:00.846
You're going to be needing a new golf club.

01:09:00.846 --> 01:09:02.886
I've done that and it sucks.

01:09:02.886 --> 01:09:05.006
It hurts a bit like a motherfucker.

01:09:05.006 --> 01:09:16.595
But going back to what I was saying about Donald Ross greens, is every Donald Ross golf course I have played the greens are the exact same.

01:09:16.595 --> 01:09:20.470
Now, exact same with some room.

01:09:20.470 --> 01:09:30.340
Obviously they're not all going to be a US Open quality green, but they're all turtleback and they're, all you know, within five, six feet of the edge of the greens.

01:09:30.340 --> 01:09:35.733
They're all going to roll off and you're going to be on collars and rough and bunkers and all of that.

01:09:35.840 --> 01:09:42.134
And there was an awesome golf course in Southwest Florida called Sarah Bay that all four of you guys would love.

01:09:42.134 --> 01:09:48.769
It was next to a small airport but that was the most Donald Ross golf course I'd ever seen golf course I'd ever seen.

01:09:48.769 --> 01:10:07.042
It's thick, bermuda rough and just real humpback greens that just if you know the ball, if the pin's in the right spot, you've got to hit the correct shot on the opposite side of the hole to make sure you got yourself 15 to 30 foot putt for at least for a birdie or a par.

01:10:07.042 --> 01:10:35.703
So you know, congratulations to the usga creating a tough challenge and the winner only being six under was fun to see because on sunday, you know a lot of these guys, they had a tough time with it, and even finow, you know finow short-sighted himself on what was that 16, I think it was um, and he, you know, he made that triple and you know that's, that's the us open, right there.

01:10:35.743 --> 01:10:46.685
you, you know, and bryson just yeah, ludwig, I mean he was playing fantastic, just destroyed him well, welcome to the us.

01:10:46.786 --> 01:10:53.934
Open and and the crazy thing is is, you know a lot.

01:10:53.934 --> 01:11:05.444
For a guy like ludwig hopefully rory too this is a learning lesson, you know, and that's the only thing that guys like that can do from here is like there's no sense in getting down on yourself.

01:11:05.444 --> 01:11:19.269
Now it's over, so time to take a step back, evaluate what you did, move forward and pray to God for Rory McIlroy.

01:11:19.269 --> 01:11:35.313
Hopefully Port Rush becomes the one that he can convert and win another one, because if he's got to wait another year to try and grab another one, social media is not going to be very kind, but at the end of the day, he doesn't give a shit either.

01:11:35.313 --> 01:11:36.796
So If he's got to wait another, year to try and grab another one.

01:11:36.815 --> 01:11:39.039
Social media is not going to be very kind, but at the end of the day he doesn't give a shit either.

01:11:39.039 --> 01:11:47.421
Hey, jeremy, if you can look up and see where Rory finished at Oakmont and I'm sure was Bryson playing then, because DJ won that- I know DJ won that one.

01:11:47.442 --> 01:11:54.146
That was 2016, and I think Bryson was an amateur still, because I think he won the US Amateur.

01:11:54.167 --> 01:11:55.984
US Am, so he played in it then.

01:11:56.881 --> 01:11:58.123
I think he might have played in it.

01:11:58.144 --> 01:12:01.893
yeah, Curious to see, Look that up and see.

01:12:01.893 --> 01:12:08.168
Hey Joe, you weren't here when we asked you how was Moreno Valley?

01:12:10.100 --> 01:12:12.069
Well, we stayed in Moreno Valley.

01:12:12.069 --> 01:12:15.606
Trey was with me, of course.

01:12:15.606 --> 01:12:22.387
It was good man, very quick trip, but yeah, it was a lot of fun.

01:12:22.387 --> 01:12:26.771
Got to eat some portillos, stayed at that.

01:12:26.771 --> 01:12:32.105
La Quinta in Moval yeah, it was a good day.

01:12:32.680 --> 01:12:51.414
We went out there to play golf at Jared DeAnda's club, victoria Club, special place like just vibes, a lot of vibes, real cool, nothing super drastic, same designer as Lakeside, which I know Dan's played, but it was a lot of fun.

01:12:51.414 --> 01:12:55.914
We got to play with, uh, justin eldridge, who is from um 33.

01:12:55.914 --> 01:12:56.557
What is it?

01:12:56.557 --> 01:13:01.130
The 33 company?

01:13:01.130 --> 01:13:06.483
I forget exactly what it is, but he makes the, the, the teas with the flavor, like the little small teas, like the toothpick.

01:13:06.643 --> 01:13:12.375
Oh, I forgot to give you some, oh, yeah, um, but yeah, he used to be a pro skateboarder which was like super cool because I used to skateboard.

01:13:12.375 --> 01:13:14.211
I used to give you some, um, but yeah, he used to be a pro skateboarder which was like super cool because I used to skateboard.

01:13:14.211 --> 01:13:17.439
I used to watch him in freaking skate videos growing up, you know.

01:13:17.439 --> 01:13:20.027
And then his brother played with us, chance, and of course, jared.

01:13:20.027 --> 01:13:26.192
It was a good day, man, um, awesome dudes to play golf with and the course was fun.

01:13:26.192 --> 01:13:31.323
Uh, went over to jared's house after jumped in the pool, jumped, jumped off the roof.

01:13:31.323 --> 01:13:34.707
Uh, it was a lot of fun.

01:13:35.046 --> 01:13:35.828
Oh, do we get that on?

01:13:35.847 --> 01:13:36.188
video?

01:13:36.188 --> 01:13:39.551
Yeah, definitely, and we got both of us on video doing it.

01:13:39.551 --> 01:13:41.994
Yeah, Um, it was.

01:13:41.994 --> 01:13:43.055
Yeah, it was a lot of fun.

01:13:43.055 --> 01:13:46.560
It was.

01:13:46.560 --> 01:13:47.743
The golf course was fantastic.

01:13:47.764 --> 01:13:48.485
The greens were really good.

01:13:48.485 --> 01:13:51.190
Thick, the Bermuda rough around the greens.

01:13:51.190 --> 01:13:54.158
Greens was um, typical.

01:13:54.158 --> 01:13:57.122
I think it was bermuda rye mixture.

01:13:57.122 --> 01:14:08.492
I'm not a grass expert, but um, it was very cool, you know, and it definitely reminded me of being a member of my own club, hosting your friends and your buddies coming over.

01:14:08.492 --> 01:14:09.961
And I mean for him too.

01:14:09.961 --> 01:14:13.569
It's a, you know, he can literally ride his bike right around the corner.

01:14:13.569 --> 01:14:14.310
He takes it right.

01:14:14.371 --> 01:14:19.069
Yeah, I mean he takes a right and a left out of his house and he's right there at the golf club.

01:14:19.069 --> 01:14:29.993
So but it was very cool because, especially for a guy like Jared, he almost sticks out like a sore thumb at that club where there's a lot of older military members and things like that.

01:14:29.993 --> 01:14:39.487
Then you got this guy who was the voice of formula drift that's got straight Cali vibes coming in and long foot, you know the long hair and the loud personality.

01:14:39.487 --> 01:14:52.087
But you know he, they all you know from the people that were interacting with him, they all love them at that club and it was very cool to to be there and just, you know, kind of take a day out there.

01:14:52.087 --> 01:15:07.724
And you know we missed you, dan, I know you couldn't make it, but uh, it's definitely available to go down there and even maybe for you guys and uh, possible guests like myself to to go down there, even do a full pot at jared's, in jared's backyard.

01:15:07.724 --> 01:15:09.247
You know he would be open to it.

01:15:09.327 --> 01:15:21.628
Yeah, yeah, that's for sure his house is so cool, uh, I mean it's, it's a sick crib, yeah, but when we were leaving he you know, I've told him he said he was down to jump on the pod, so we'll have to have him on soon.

01:15:21.628 --> 01:15:26.443
Um justin from um the number 33 number 33.

01:15:26.443 --> 01:15:31.532
Yeah, yeah, um, really good day, like just like a really cool.

01:15:31.532 --> 01:15:37.188
It felt like a classic, like sunday with your homies, like just like it was.

01:15:37.188 --> 01:15:45.710
It was really fun, really fun yeah, now back to work I'm off tomorrow, so oh yeah

01:15:46.451 --> 01:15:49.301
yeah, I'm working tomorrow and thursday and then utah on friday.

01:15:49.301 --> 01:15:58.359
Yeah, that's why I didn't drive, because all the boys are hopping in the telluride Friday to go up to Utah.

01:15:58.359 --> 01:16:06.295
So I told Joe I was like I need you to drive, bro, or else we're putting a couple thousand miles in a week on the telluride.

01:16:06.680 --> 01:16:08.024
I got my brakes fixed finally.

01:16:08.828 --> 01:16:09.128
Hey.

01:16:09.920 --> 01:16:11.046
Nice Joe Well done.

01:16:11.600 --> 01:16:15.492
That's always good to have some brakes when you're hauling babies around.

01:16:16.961 --> 01:16:21.408
I didn't want to put up to the private club that the voice of Formula Drift is.

01:16:21.408 --> 01:16:21.608
Who's?

01:16:21.627 --> 01:16:21.988
this guy.

01:16:27.060 --> 01:16:29.909
Jay was like we'll pull up Ace Ventura with the head out the window.

01:16:31.865 --> 01:16:39.171
Well, the funny thing is is we pulled up to the club this morning and I guess like part of the sign was broken to press the buttons to get in.

01:16:39.171 --> 01:16:42.390
So Joe's pressing all the buttons and none of them work at all.

01:16:42.390 --> 01:16:52.341
And then this soccer mom pulled up right next to us with three kids in the car and we look at her like yeah, yeah, we're just trying to play golf with our friend today.

01:16:52.341 --> 01:16:54.204
Can you listen?

01:16:54.204 --> 01:16:56.007
But it was, it was.

01:16:56.007 --> 01:16:58.051
It was very cool, definitely.

01:16:58.051 --> 01:17:23.152
Uh, when I think of la you know, besides all the nitty-gritty shit that most people think about when they think of la when I think of a decent part of la, that's not calabasas and Thousand Oaks, like that's what I think about is that kind of that area where it's, you know, you got a lot of the mid-century homes built in the fifties and sixties and you can kind of see where old LA used to be.

01:17:23.279 --> 01:17:36.747
That's converted into a newer LA and you know, obviously it felt like Riviera meets like San Clemente, like because the clubhouse is on top of a hill.

01:17:36.747 --> 01:17:38.872
So you got that like hill vibe of Riv.

01:17:38.872 --> 01:17:41.408
And then, you know, number one goes down.

01:17:41.408 --> 01:17:42.908
It kind of had that vibe to it.

01:17:42.908 --> 01:17:44.005
It was, it was awesome.

01:17:45.359 --> 01:17:46.444
Have you been to Riviera Joe?

01:17:47.127 --> 01:17:48.984
No, no, I mean from what I see on TV.

01:17:48.984 --> 01:17:52.226
You know, hey Moore said he played sarah bay.

01:17:54.564 --> 01:17:54.826
How?

01:17:54.826 --> 01:17:55.648
Why are you still up?

01:17:55.648 --> 01:17:56.970
Go to bed, man.

01:17:56.970 --> 01:18:04.399
Go to bed, jeez still playing a game uh, love to see crazy tough open conditions.

01:18:04.399 --> 01:18:05.243
Beth paid rider cup.

01:18:05.283 --> 01:18:15.750
Yep, that would be amazing vibes brah yeah, brah vibe yeah, and do they have a captain for the Ryder Cup next year?

01:18:15.750 --> 01:18:18.039
They have, pick one.

01:18:18.039 --> 01:18:23.719
I mean, I know there was talk about Tiger doing

01:18:23.738 --> 01:18:31.054
it, yeah, yeah, I mean with him with Bryson winning that and them using the Ryder Cup points based on how much money you make.

01:18:31.054 --> 01:18:34.377
Yeah, I mean with him, with Bryson winning that and them using the Ryder Cup points based on how much money you make.

01:18:34.377 --> 01:18:42.546
I mean as long as you know, and he's he got what top five in the second at the last two majors.

01:18:43.007 --> 01:18:45.594
Yeah, or second, I don't know what he Sixth in the second Sixth in the second.

01:18:45.640 --> 01:18:48.908
So he's made enough money from those two to make sure that he's on.

01:18:48.908 --> 01:18:51.556
Yeah, I think enough money from those two to make sure that he's on.

01:18:51.556 --> 01:18:52.264
Uh, I think you know he's on the team for next year.

01:18:52.264 --> 01:18:58.122
So even if he doesn't make the top six like if you don't pick him this time around, you're an idiot.

01:18:58.824 --> 01:19:05.688
Yeah, yeah luke donald is going to be the european but they haven't chosen the us one, yet oh, did you get the rory oakmont stat yet?

01:19:06.350 --> 01:19:08.905
yeah, he missed the cut bryson uh, he, he finished t13.

01:19:08.905 --> 01:19:10.472
He got in through sectional qualifying because he he missed the cut.

01:19:10.493 --> 01:19:11.719
Ooh Eight over Bryson Bryson.

01:19:11.719 --> 01:19:13.587
Uh he, he finished T13.

01:19:13.587 --> 01:19:15.479
He got in through sectional qualifying cause.

01:19:15.479 --> 01:19:20.127
He he had an exemption from winning the U S amateur, but he lost it when he turned pro right before that.

01:19:20.948 --> 01:19:22.323
Yeah, and then they changed that.

01:19:22.886 --> 01:19:23.509
What year was that?

01:19:23.529 --> 01:19:25.777
Yeah, 2016.

01:19:25.777 --> 01:19:29.162
Yeah, they changed that rule, so now, uh, yeah, they changed that rule.

01:19:29.162 --> 01:19:31.087
So now you know, if he turns pro, you can still play.

01:19:31.167 --> 01:19:32.270
You can still play, yeah.

01:19:32.671 --> 01:19:45.975
Yeah, and I believe earlier and I don't know if you saw my comment because I was still in the car with Joe Shipley was a grad transfer to Ohio State, yep, and he went to a different one, transferred as a grad.

01:19:45.975 --> 01:19:50.466
Correct and he has PGA Tour America status.

01:19:50.466 --> 01:19:54.373
So he is in Canada this week playing in PGA Tour.

01:19:57.881 --> 01:19:59.664
Well, it's not PGA Tour Canada, but we're going to call it that.

01:19:59.826 --> 01:20:02.091
Yeah well, not the Canada Tour, it's the PGA Tour Canada.

01:20:02.091 --> 01:20:10.140
There is a Canada Tour, but not affiliated.

01:20:13.100 --> 01:20:13.801
And then other side notes.

01:20:13.801 --> 01:20:15.503
John Daly II is playing this week in Corn Ferry.

01:20:15.503 --> 01:20:17.106
Ooh, that's a good one.

01:20:17.106 --> 01:20:19.610
Yeah, travelers, this is another elevated event.

01:20:19.610 --> 01:20:21.314
So big money, big points.

01:20:21.314 --> 01:20:29.212
No, rory, I'm curious to see if Scotty has a whole new bag set up.

01:20:33.682 --> 01:20:35.487
I think you get fined for not playing in events.

01:20:35.506 --> 01:20:36.309
Right, you do you do if you miss.

01:20:36.309 --> 01:20:40.939
If you miss more than two, I think you're allowed one to where you decide.

01:20:40.939 --> 01:20:50.668
Hey, I'm not gonna play this one if you give him a heads up status, but yeah, he'll be fine for this one yeah, yeah, but he will be fined or he'll be fine no, no, he'll be fined.

01:20:50.668 --> 01:20:53.954
He's going to have a deduction from his bank account.

01:20:54.742 --> 01:20:55.484
I think he'll be all right.

01:20:55.484 --> 01:21:02.942
I think he's going to be just fine, because he's not going to have to pay alimony anymore Did you see that.

01:21:03.143 --> 01:21:11.774
PGA Tour made the exemption for Tiger to play in the elevated events for lifetime achievement Good for him.

01:21:12.380 --> 01:21:16.210
They need that because, whether he plays well or not, he still moves the needle.

01:21:16.752 --> 01:21:20.539
Yep, 100%, he does 100%.

01:21:20.860 --> 01:21:32.729
It's not like he's going to play this week, but it allows him now, in 2025, to cater the schedule to those, Didn't he say he was going to try to play once a month?

01:21:35.082 --> 01:21:41.207
That was I mean it was before he found out that his leg is is not of this earth anymore.

01:21:41.881 --> 01:21:43.969
He technically has played once a month.

01:21:45.041 --> 01:21:48.390
And then he says now his last event is going to be the the uh open.

01:21:49.100 --> 01:21:51.649
He played February, April, May, June.

01:21:52.180 --> 01:21:53.524
Stop it with the golf carts.

01:21:53.524 --> 01:21:54.487
Okay, Stop it.

01:21:55.208 --> 01:21:55.770
He won't play.

01:21:55.770 --> 01:21:57.546
He won't play if he has to ride a car.

01:21:57.546 --> 01:21:58.408
He said that before.

01:21:59.002 --> 01:22:00.300
Yeah, professional golf is a walking tour.

01:22:00.319 --> 01:22:08.287
I don't even think he's going to play the senior tour honestly, even with a cart, because the senior tour plays with a cart, except for the majors.

01:22:09.119 --> 01:22:10.404
He doesn't need to play senior tour.

01:22:10.404 --> 01:22:12.149
He should go over to live when he turns 50.

01:22:12.560 --> 01:22:29.390
Well, the thing is if he, goes if he plays on the senior tour and wins the senior US Open, he'll be the only person to ever win a junior, an AM, a US Open and a senior Open, so that is an accolade that he could shoot for.

01:22:30.192 --> 01:22:34.586
I guess That'd be a hell of an accolade that he could shoot for.

01:22:34.586 --> 01:22:36.032
I guess, I mean, that'd be a hell of an accolade, that's for sure.

01:22:36.032 --> 01:22:52.273
But I don't think it's that important to him because I think once he hits 50, I believe charlie is going to be right around 18 and you know, I would allow him to focus on charlie and helping him maybe he'll go to live and then the live team will draft Charlie, kind of like what LeBron's doing with Brawny.

01:22:53.095 --> 01:22:53.295
Yeah.

01:22:56.761 --> 01:22:58.826
He's ranked 250th in the state of Florida.

01:22:58.826 --> 01:23:01.212
Tiger Doesn't matter, we're drafting, charlie.

01:23:04.689 --> 01:23:09.391
Yeah, I know Miles Russell, and you need to be able to be competing with him, to Tiger's kid or not.

01:23:09.391 --> 01:23:11.259
You need to be able to compete with with him, to tiger's kid or not.

01:23:11.259 --> 01:23:14.229
You know you need to be able to compete with him and that kid's just filthy.

01:23:16.564 --> 01:23:19.565
All right, gentlemen Trey, thanks for hopping on.

01:23:20.119 --> 01:23:23.484
Thanks for having me hopping out Dan see you Friday.

01:23:24.387 --> 01:23:29.890
Yes, sir and Joe, you know, take us home, I guess.

01:23:29.890 --> 01:23:30.953
Yeah, we're done.

01:23:31.800 --> 01:23:33.287
Yeah, I'm beat, I'm tired.

01:23:35.601 --> 01:23:36.445
Oh Trey left.

01:23:36.445 --> 01:23:39.386
Yeah, Trey has left the building.

01:23:40.082 --> 01:23:43.166
He didn't stick around to congratulate us he did not stick around at all.

01:23:43.659 --> 01:23:45.166
He said he was out, so he's out.

01:23:45.166 --> 01:23:45.908
He's out.

01:23:46.701 --> 01:23:48.689
Yeah, it was a long day for him and myself.

01:23:48.689 --> 01:23:53.591
So glad I was able to at least jump on late driving in.

01:23:53.591 --> 01:23:57.265
But good day yeah thanks for tuning in.

01:23:57.265 --> 01:23:59.405
I hope you all enjoyed the US Open.

01:23:59.405 --> 01:24:00.309
Find her shine.

01:24:00.309 --> 01:24:01.565
I think it was fantastic.

01:24:01.565 --> 01:24:05.167
And until next week we'll catch you later.

01:24:05.167 --> 01:24:08.420
