You gotta watch out for me coming up here withthat PXG driver.
But on tonight's episode, we've got the WyndhamChampionship recap.
We're gonna be really quick around that.
However, there are some stories around that,which, you know, we've found out this week, who
(01:09):
the real Matt Kuchar is.
Yeah.
Max Grace.
Graceerman, he choked his little face off.
Then we got Aaron Rai winning with two gloves.

And then we gotta LIV Golf Greenbrier.
And along those lines, we've got is GraemeMcDowell on drugs.
So, yeah, let's
Big big thing going on with G-Mac.
Let's get right.
We show the shoes.
Show the shoes.
We gotta show the shoes.
Oh, wait.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Those look way too huge.
(01:49):
I just got the black ones.
Alright.
Wow.
That was cool.
It was weird, but I liked it.
That was very Wayne's World-esque right there.
Like that.
Party on, Wayne.
Yeah.
Let's go.
That's
that's gauging right there.
We do wanna give before we get into all thisgreat content that we got tonight.
A shout out to Swannies Golf, who once again,folks, always dialing me in, but Buttsy saw me
(02:11):
tonight.
He's like, holy crap.
I love that shirt.
Oh my god.
It looked like, it looked like the floraldepartment at the grocery store.
Absolutely.
Which is not a bad thing.
Dial.
Dial for summertime.
Chick flowers.
Oh my god.
You should have seen all the eyeballs I gottoday.
Just strolling in here alone.
No collar on it either.
Oh, it's got that mock collar.
A young Jack Nicklaus.
With two buttons as well.
(02:32):
So you're not doing the full Tiger mock.
I love this mock shirt from Swannies, but folksutilize promo code PULLHOOKGOLF25 at checkout

Let's fucking go.
Here we go.
Wyndham Championship recap.
And my question for you, Buttsy, is Matt Kucharan asshole?
(02:52):
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think he was born that way.
I don't think it's an intentional thing.
I don't think he thinks he's an asshole, andthat's usually a hallmark of people that are
assholes.
Yeah.
Usually, if you don't think you're an asshole,you're an asshole.
You're absolutely an asshole.
And you have to say that.
You are.
Because people think it.
Walked off the
golf course.
So tell, tell
(03:12):
him right in.
You text me,
you know,
what is the thing about Magnum?
I was just kinda following along, and then,like, his grip played in without him.
And, he left.
He left.
And I said, that makes sense.
What a baby little bitch?
That or he's just had some sort of LASIKsurgery, and there's a story behind it.
I always give people the benefit of the doubt.
Maybe there's
You got to.
cataract or something going on, or he's justpoint he was like, what, ten shots off the
(03:36):
lead?
Something like that.
He way yeah.
He wasn't at all in a position to win.
And the whole thing was, Kuchar, was gettingall butt hurt.
Right?
Yeah.
Getting all butt hurt out there, and it startedgetting a little bit dark.
Now when it gets a little bit dark, Kuchar, allof a sudden hit a wayward shot, he didn't like
being told, oh, you just hit into the group infront of you, and he just became a little
(03:59):
bitch.
His true colors showed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, he he might adopt animals just to abusethem.
Who knows?
So you
hate to see that.
Yeah.
That's a joke, by the way.
Don't get carried away with that.
I 2020, whatever.
And, yeah, I can't say that kind of stuffanymore, but we said it.
So yeah.
There it is.
We just added the little disclaimer.
Of course.
It's too bad.
(04:19):
Yeah.
Did he come back out and finish?
He did the next day.
So here's the worst part about all of this ishe made, like, seventy staff members of the PGA
Tour have to come back the next day in orderjust to watch him.
Yeah.
Dink around and make a par.
It's like, dude, he's like, and then the worstthing about it all, and I'm sorry, folks.
(04:42):
You've probably heard a million takes aroundMatt Kuchar this week.
The worst thing for me was the fact that MattKuchar had the gall to, like, defend himself.
It's like, dude, just own it.
It's the next day.
You want him to move it to sleep.
He's just like, you know, I was in the otherfairway.
I didn't know that I get a drop.
I didn't know I could do this.
(05:03):
You know, it was 8:20 at night, which, by theway, complete lie because Aaron Rai's putt went
in at 8:20 p.m.
I was told this, by the way, from a PGA Tourcaddie that I was in contact with today.
Okay?
And he's just like, dude, watch it back.
He goes, Aaron Rai's putt dropped at 8:20.
He had already quit by 8:20.
(05:24):
Did he consult with his other players, or didhe just walk in?
No.
He was just seeing a lot.
There's no excuse
for that.
You're just being a little baby bitch.
Well, and here's the thing.
Let's go over Matt Kuchar's history of beingcheap.
Okay?
We're gonna go right back to Mayakoba inMexico.
When he had that caddie, the local caddie fillin for his guy, he ends up winning.
Right?
(05:45):
So with that, he only paid the guy up front,$5,000.
Yeah.
Okay?
He thought, oh, nobody's gonna hear about this.
This is gonna be great.
Obviously, publicity gets out that this guy gotabsolutely screwed over by Matt Kuchar.
Did not pay the caddie, and sure enough, all ofa sudden, Matt Kuchar thinks he's doing the
(06:06):
right thing.
Only gives the guy $50K.
That's less than 5% of the winnings.
Yeah.
Now you might ask yourself, what is the averagewinnings, which is why I was talking with the
PGA Tour caddie today.
I was going, hey.
What is kind of the rates, right?
Like, low-level caddie, all the way up to thetop tier, and he said the average.
And this was likely a lottery win for this guy.
(06:30):
Oh, 100%.
As far as family.
Yeah.
Change his whole life.
You know, he got the call-up and now did hejust carry the bag and not say a word, you
know, the whole week and not help at all?
I don't know.
But regardless, do the right
things here.
I mean, that's what you get a local caddie for.
I mean, if it was a robot carrying the bag, youtipped the robot.
(06:51):
It's good luck.
1000%.
Yeah.
Hey.
It's gonna rule the world anyway.
So you might well, get ahead of it.
Yeah.
Now the average percentage that normallycaddies get is 8%.
Yeah.
The best caddies get 12 to 13% in that kind ofrange.
Okay?
So just so that everybody knows, but to getless than 5%, there's not a caddie out there,
(07:11):
even the shittiest of caddies on the PGA Tour,making 6 percent.
At worst.
Yeah.
So what's the math on that?
Like, what should this guy have made?
He should have made.
I mean, I don't know the math on it, but soCooch's the Cooch, dude.
Cooch, I don't know if that rings that works.
But it's one of these stories that it's likethe facade.
Right?
The facade.
(07:33):
Yeah.
Of, oh, he's such a nice guy.
He's smiling on the golf course all the time.
Yeah.
Super nice.
You get him outside of that publicity world.
Of being out there in the public on the PGATour.
And this guy just becomes a complete asshole.
You think if you were following him and he waskinda looking down and he, like, flipped a
quarter out in front of him, and he stepped onit.
(07:54):
He'd probably pick it up.
Oh, 100%.
Probably pick
it up.
100%.
He's also claimed that he's never ever paid fora round since the nineties.
And in addition to that, there's a lot ofreports, a lot of reports out there that he has
stiffed a number of locker room attendants aswell as outside services when he does go play.
(08:15):
That's so this is a thing.
This is a habitual thing.
I had to let it out on the podcast.
I I think it is what it is.
We had to get it out there.
And, sure enough, needless to say, I don'tthink Matt Kuchar's ever coming on the pod.
No.
No.
No.
And I think we're okay with that.
He caught any bit of this or anybody he knowsdid.
He might catch chlamydia.
We don't.
Yeah.
Not good.
(08:36):
Could happen.
Not good.
Sorry, Cooch.
Yeah.
Sorry, Cooch.
But every time that people are gonna startyelling out Cooch now, it's not gonna be in a
positive way.
No.
Cooch.
No.
Not good.
No.
Not at all.
And see what you got going on here.
Let me see where we at here.
So we got Max Homa now.
So did Max Homa choke?
I didn't see did he make a
(08:58):
he was like he went from, like, minus to, like,plus 115 in a hole.
So minus 35 to plus 1 or something like that.
He holed out for eagle on the par-4 14th.
Right?
Then he proceeds to make a snowman, an 8.
Okay?
Trump golfer hit me up on the DMs as this wasgoing on.
Yeah.
(09:18):
And he's like, your boy Aaron Rai, you calledit last week.
He's gonna win.
I was like, hang on.
Max Gracerman has a chance still, like, he'sgonna end up probably making birdie on the next
hole.
Like, let's see how it plays out.
So he birdies the par-5 14th, then he goes andproceeds to 4-putt for double bogey on the
(09:39):
par-3.
Mhmm.
And that pretty much ended for him right there.
Still.
But he still parred his way in.
I mean,
I mean, a solid showing, though, for Gracerman.
Like I said, I got the chance to play golf withhim.
Like we had talked about last week.
I think it was.
And that's a solid dude and, yeah, he's, he'scome up quickly.
So, yeah, I mean, he's he's playing good golf.
(10:01):
Korn Ferry or whatever.
Yeah.
And now he's here.
So, yeah, I don't think he's gonna let thatbother him, which I think I saw in the press
conference after.
He didn't look phased by what happened to him
at all.
He said it's a learning experience.
And that's the thing.
When you're under pressure like that, that is anew ballgame.
That is an adrenaline rush that you are justnot used to, unless you've been under that type
(10:22):
of pressure before.
And even then, some people don't know how todeal with it.
Some people never learn from those experiences.
They just take it as, holy shit.
I'm scared to death that I'm in this positionyet again, but it sounds like Max Gracerman is
really taking the positive spin out ofeverything.
Yeah.
I mean,
here's the thing.
He's finished second in the last twotournaments he's played in.
(10:44):
Pretty good.
Pretty freaking solid.
I would be smitten with myself.
That'd be just fine.
Yeah.
Everybody could suck.
I'm doing great.
I would be rolling around like Conor McGregorjust strutting out there.
Two twos, every month.
You would throw the Con
Oh, yeah.
For sure.
You know, just get real arrogant about it andjust let the people know I'm coming, bitches.
(11:04):
Now the other thing with Max Homa, and this isthe thing.
I just loved the fact.
I can't shit on him because I love the factthat he handled it so positively.
And it just looked like in a bad situation thathappened.
The nerves got to him.
And the 4-putt, the 4-putt was tough to watch.
I think I would have probably rolled out of thescoring tent.
(11:28):
I would have come out in a wheelchair probably.
Oh, wheelchair.
Yeah.
And just told the press, hey.
Look.
You guys saw the 8 back there.
I have been fighting this nerve pain all day.
Almost collapsed signing my card, and here weare.
And I would've just given myself a little wheelout, and that would've been my out on that
whole deal.
Wow.
Who's going to say something then?
(11:49):
Yeah.
Love that for you.
I would travel with a wheelchair.
Folks, if you see this
now just for that reason.
that he leaves, like, let's say we get invitedto the Creator Classic and all of a sudden he
leaves on a wheelchair after he finishedsecond, you know what I
would think back pain for the rest of my lifeon camera, and always travel with a wheelchair
and be known to be somebody that's survivingback pain.
(12:12):
If I did good, great.
I was able to fight through the pain.
We got a massage therapist back in the room.
We're hoping we're ready for Sunday.
If not, blow up anywhere in the round, here Icome.
There it is.
Yeah.
Now, the winner of the tournament was AaronRai.
He finished 18 under.
And the question that I got for you is outsideof the elite golfers like Scheffler and
(12:33):
Schauffele, is there a more consistent playeron tour right now than Aaron Rai?
No.
No.
I don't think so.
Two gloves.
Two gloves?
Yeah.
Friends with Tommy.
Not only that, but they're weather gloves.
Did you know that?
Like, that's why they're black gloves.
Wait.
Wait.
Wait.
Wait.
They're actually like rain weather gloves.
Like, the thick ones?
Yeah.
This guy's plucked.
Dude, this guy's
a tour event with mittens on.
(12:55):
He's got stories, man, because some guy gavehim his first set of golf gloves, as a kid
growing up poor, right, over in England.
And all these stories come from him goingthrough that experience.
So I don't shit on him when I talk about this.
Because I have respect for the story behind it.
But at the same time, it's a bit ridiculousthat the guy's out there on the PGA Tour
(13:16):
playing with two black gloves that are likerain gloves and he's winning golf.
I wonder
if he's, like, a qualified electrician for,like, a summer.
And that's how he put himself on tour, but hejust he just he just never ditched the gloves.
Never did.
Like, they're actually electrical workergloves.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Now what do what do you expect
from Aaron Rai
moving forward?
(13:37):
Slow growth.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think he'll mature into being one of thebetter players out there and probably a guy
that's pretty consistent for a long time.
I think he's got the qualities to be a toptenner?
Like, top 10 in the world?
No.
Not yet.
I don't think so.
I mean, that's tough to say just one.
Right?
But I don't think so.
Not quite yet, but I think he's gonna be therefor the long run.
(13:59):
Maybe in the next couple of years.
I think he's gonna have a good opportunity.
Two, three years.
Yeah.
To win these tournaments that are not the havethe full fields, right?
The signature series events, I don't know ifhe's gonna be a guy that's really gonna
threaten.
But you know what?
He keeps growing.
He keeps getting better and better and betterevery single year.
Yeah.
(14:19):
And more and more consistent.
So and I don't know how much more consistent hecan really get.
So and truck golfer threw up there.
If you can go back to that one, truck golfersaid congrats, Matty.
Picking the winner, folks.
You did, didn't you?
Yep.
That was my fourth call of the year so far,folks.
Yeah.
We need to So we need to start gambling basedoff of your picks.
You know what I mean?
(14:39):
This is getting kinda ridiculous.
I mean, we're getting there little by littlelittle by little.
What's your
percentage?
Your win percentage right now?
You know what?
Top 5 percentage is really good.
Top 5, top 5, top 10s and top 20s, I'm prettysolid on.
It is literally the wins that, you know, if youget more than two wins in a year, of picking,
(15:00):
that's pretty damn special.
But I've gotten four so far, granted a coupleof those were Scottie Scheffler, but you know,
it is what it is.
I've had some good picks.
Yeah.
Tiger.
Yeah.
Tiger was a real solid one at the OpenChampionship.
And I'll
I really thought I'm
not doing it again.
Why?
Now, the leaderboard rundown here as we areshort on time is T3 was J.J.
(15:23):
Spaun, and that's your boy.
Rio, I don't—is that Pisituna?
Real Pisituna.
Real Pisituna.
That guy.
I don't know if that's how you pronounce hisname or not, but it sounds right.
Now
Nick, can we look that up?
Yeah.
Pisituna?
Pisituna.
Pisituna.
Troggolfer will probably put that in here.
(15:44):
How do you pronounce it?
Can you put the pronunciation of Rio Pisitunain the chat for us?
I kinda like us just butchering the names,though.
It's part of the knack.
You know
what I mean?
It's part of the shtick.
I just
We got Rio Pisituna.
We got Long Hardbanger on the senior tour.
Yeah.
5th place, this Luke Clanton kid who's still anamateur, by the way, you know how many millions
(16:07):
of dollars that this kid would have won by now?
A lot.
Yeah.
I don't understand what the hell.
Like, golf is a fickle sport.
I would not continue to be an amateur rightnow.
No.
I would 100% after that first cut I made I turnpro, I start making all this money, and, you
know, what, the rest is history.
Mhmm.
But, man, this kid hopefully doesn't get aninjury.
(16:28):
Hopefully, it doesn't get like a, hopefullyisn't using Vicks nasal spray and going to LIV,
which nasal spray.
We will
get to that.
We'll get to that.
We'll get to that.
We'll get to that.
That is a LIV Golf type of moment, that wegotta get into.
Sixth place was Austin Eckroat.
T7 was Ben Griffin, Adam Svensson, Trace Crowe,Eric Cole, and Billy Horschel.
(16:54):
Really cool to see Billy Horschel, by the way.
Troncofer, I know what you're gonna say.
Do not say it.
What's he gonna say?
Billy Horschel, he's been saying it the pastcouple of weeks.
But Billy Horschel, really cool for him to,like, pump up Aaron Rai.
He could tell that Aaron Rai was the Pap shuthimself with diarrhea.
Yeah.
On, like, 17 and 18.
And Billy's, like, fist pumping him, like,giving him, like, a little bit of motivation
(17:17):
behind it and everything.
Little senior.
That was really freaking cool to BillyHorschel.
I don't know if I've ever really seen that fromtwo guys that aren't usually friends.
Yeah.
Like, I could see, like, friends on tour andeverything doing that if one's out of
contention and the other one is playing reallywell?
Kinda like, dude, you deserve this.
Like, you're playing well.
Like, come up.
(17:37):
Yeah.
Hey.
Stay in it.
That's cool.
Alright.
We gotta keep it moving.
We gotta keep it moving.
We got the FedEx Cup preview folks.
And let's just start, by the way.
If you're not jazzed up about the FedEx St.
Jude Championship in Memphis, Tennessee,neither am I.
However, the second event that's gonna becoming up is the BMW Championship at Castle
(17:58):
Pines in Castle Rock, Colorado.
I can't wait.
That'd be
it.
Yeah.
This event is gonna be fucking fire.
Matt's excited about this.
Disagree with me on this.
Wow.
Wow.
I am so excited about Castle Pines.
One, they gotta deal with the elevation.
Yeah.
And it's the top 50 players.
(18:18):
So right now, we're going to the St.
Jude in Memphis.
That's the top 70 players, okay, FedEx points.
Okay.
That trims down to 50 for the BMW Championshipat Castle Pines.
But I wanna see, like, how far is RoryMcIlroy's drive gonna go on shot tracer or shot
tracker or whatever the hell you wanna call it.
There'll be a lot of drives over four bills.
(18:40):
Oh my god.
It's gonna go an absolute country mile, butthat's gonna be part of what makes this
tournament so special.
Yeah.
What guys can adjust and adapt to theelevation, get their yardages correct.
And play really good golf at Castle Pines.
I mean,
we're in Gapledge, a buck 55.
Like, you
know, it's like me here at PXG.
I was hitting the seven iron of their newplayer iron.
(19:03):
Bro, you I'll let you say it because people
are gonna think that I'm like, How far is hecarrying that?
Like, two hundred yards.
Two hundred yards, seven iron.
And not that thing
is low.
Like, good spin rate, good ball speed,everything you want high in the air.
Now a quick word from our sponsor.
(19:23):
Swannies is here with a fresh take.
Performance-based materials are a given thesedays.
But if you're looking for the stretchiest andmost lightweight pieces that deliver a look
that says, I'm here for a good time.
Take a walk on the Swannies side.
With fabric sourced from recycled plastics anddesigns sourced from our very own weekend
(19:44):
warriors, Swannies is looking out for both ourplanet and those that need a little style to
boost their drive another 15 yards.
Premium looks from top to bottom atswannies.co.
Two hundred yards.
Which, by the way, assistant.
Quick little segue for our PXG side.
Yeah.
You gotta check this out.
(20:04):
Man, this thing, Buttsy brought this over tome.
So why don't you mention what this is?
Well, this is an arena that PXG hasn't reallyplayed in.
They've made a lot of more player-geared irons.
This is like, they finally figured out thesecret sauce.
They blended a player's club with something youmight see from TaylorMade, like a QI 10, but
(20:26):
it's not ugly.
It looks like a beautiful tennis racket.
That's the best way to put it.
It looks literally like a beautiful tennisracket.
It's huge.
You look down, you're like, this is massive.
How the fuck am I ever gonna miss-hit thisthing?
But oddly, it has a great shape, not a ton ofoffset.
Look at this thing, dude.
I should've got this on the model.
I can't believe you just spilled it for me.
(20:46):
So I was in my moment.
Look at that, dude.
Look at the sole.
Top line there.
Top line looks good.
Look at the sole, though.
This is like Viagra for your golf game.
Literally.
This is gonna help you.
Get it up.
The bag's steroid.
Yeah.
For if it goes longer than for three hours,then you gotta go to the hospital.
That is what I heard from the guys here.
You gotta get the you gotta get the bloodletout.
(21:07):
Yeah.
You got you to get into the details here, bro.
Can't hit it that long, that straight that farfor longer than three hours.
So look up the reviews, do your own research.
That's
not what I was hitting, by the way.
So they threw this in for me just to, like, seewhat I thought of it.
And my god, that thing was going about 210.
Yeah.
It instantly picked up another ten yards.
(21:28):
But, like, consistently, we didn't get any jumpdidn't get any weird ones.
No.
And it was consistent, which normally withclubs like this, with the player improvement
ones.
Yeah.
What I always notice is that there's a hotspot, right?
There's one that, all of a sudden, I taught mybrother-in-law when he first started playing
golf and getting really serious into it to say,"Oh, shit.
I flushed it."
When it goes fifteen yards over the green.
(21:50):
Right.
Because player improvement irons, normally youhave that.
This, you did not.
I had consistency after consistency even thoughit was going a damn country mile.
We're talking I I really wanna get, like, a4-iron in it.
Because we were talking about that.
Like, driving it'd be, like, right in between,like, a player club and an actual driving iron.
I mean, it looks you know what I'm saying?
(22:11):
Yeah.
That would
be sick.
Alright.
Back to the FedEx Cup playoffs here.
And for the folks that are just starting to getexcited about the FedEx Cup class, this is the
18th edition of the FedEx Cup playoffs.
That's
unbelievable, dude.
There's two events.
Right?
And then it goes right into the TourChampionship.
(22:31):
They don't mess around anymore.
Okay?
They get right to the juice of the whole thing.
Top 30 end up going to East Lake in Atlanta,Georgia, which has become the Tour Championship
staple event.
But again, I'm really excited for the BMWChampionship.
We wanted to go.
Unfortunately, I'm playing in a member-guest.
So hopefully, I've got, you know, my new PXGdriver that they just built for me to
(22:56):
watch out for that one because missilelauncher.
Yeah.
It's special.
The other side to this is the St.
Jude Classic.
It used to be the St.
Jude Classic, right?
It's the St.
Jude Championship now.
The previous one last year, this was LucasGlover.
So remember when Lucas Glover went back-to-backwith wins?
(23:16):
Yeah.
It was unbelievable.
That was, like, the end of his wife beating himtoo, which was really cool.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No more marks on him.
No John Daly syndrome.
He wasn't scratched up.
Not beat up anymore.
The family's happy.
So that was cool.
Oh my god.
I forgot about that story.
You brought that up before.
Oh, yeah.
And that's pretty funny, actually.
Yeah.
(23:36):
Now the course information here, it's at TPCSouthwind.
So this was designed by Ron Prichard, and itwas consulted by good old Fuzzy Zoeller, who
had the racist comment about Tiger Woods, andthen Hubert Green.
So this course opened in 1988, which isfantastic.
Yeah.
Can't let anybody not remember Fuzzy Zoellermaking the racist comments about Tiger Woods
(23:59):
and the men the mouse.
I don't know that I've ever heard any
of that.
Oh my god.
Yeah.
So when Tiger won his first Masters, yeah,Fuzzy in an interview was like, yeah, what's he
gonna have?
Fried chicken and macaroni and cheese on themenu.
Oh my gosh.
So it was something along those lines.
So, yeah, that's not appropriate.
Not appropriate.
(24:20):
What are you saying stuff to work with?
Even back then, you can't be saying stuff likethat.
So TPC Southwind, by the way, is known fortight tree-lined fairways, numerous water
hazards, and well-protected greens.
It is a course that demands precision andstrategy.
Kyle's had some good picks too.
He called the Vegas.
Right?
He's saying
(24:40):
Offer brings up a good point.
Wasn't it what people want?
What?
The food.
On the menu at the Masters?
No.
Not when you say what's he gonna bring?
I mean, that's clearly a dig.
Yeah.
Listen.
I agree.
Let's move into so car park 9.
Just cruise the past.
(25:01):
Take the boat out.
I'll move that.
Now, I mean,
I do too, but
I love renting.
It's obviously
yeah.
Yeah.
So anyways.
Par 70 at 7,243 in terms of the yardage.
And let's keep it moving into the fieldanalysis and betting odds for this bad boy.
I did every single player.
So since there's only 70 players
(25:21):
Yeah.
We got all the odds for everybody.
Okay.
You ready for this?
Scottie Scheffler, plus 330.
Scottie Scheffler not win this tournament?
Does he not?
Do you take the field or you take ScottieScheffler this
I know you're gonna ask me.
It's Scheffler, dude.
But Scheffler.
So Schauffele's at plus 750.
Like we got McIlroy at plus 900.
(25:44):
Morikawa plus 1200, Cantlay, Ã…berg, at plus22100, Matsuyama, Tommy Fleetwood, plus 25100,
Viktor Hovland, Tom Kim, Corey Conners, RussellHenley, plus 35100.
Sungjae Im, Justin Thomas, Tony Finau, plus4000.
What's JT
at?
JT is at +4000.
I don't
hate that.
That.
Not bad.
Billy Horschel is at +45100.
(26:05):
And we by the way, JT, we've seen some signsfrom JT over weeks past that, you know, Genesis
Scottish Open that opening round, The OpenChampionship back and forth between the 1st
round and the 3rd round.
So it just kinda depends what Justin Thomas ifwe can get 4 straight days of Justin Thomas.
Corey Conners?
(26:25):
Corey Conners was, plus 35100.
Now, Billy Horschel's at plus 45100.
Cam Young, good old Sahith Theegala, and AaronRai are at +5000.
In.
Mhmm.
Sam Burns and Adam Scott, plus 55100.
Shane Lowry, plus 6000.
I feel like I'm a freaking guy at anauctioneer.
So
No.
You're not fast enough.
No.
Definitely not fast enough.
(26:47):
That was pretty good.
Shane Lowry, plus 6000.
Davis Thompson, Wyndham Clark, plus 7000.
Any takers?
Wyndham.
Wyndham Clark?
That could be your dark horse.
Well, here's the thing.
Trock Golf already threw up there that hethinks that I'm going with Wyndham Clark this
or at Castle Pines, probably.
Okay.
But we'll see.
We shall see.
Now, by the way, I did see Wyndham at the gymafter the last episode.
(27:11):
Did not say hi to me.
So just saying.
He he it could just be because that's just whohe is.
Right?
Back to what we were talking about.
The best follow-up question to that that couldbe asked to me is, has he ever said hi to you?
Which answer is no.
Does he say hi to anybody?
No.
Because he probably hates everybody.
(27:32):
Let's keep it moving.
I'm gonna get in trouble on that one.
Subscribed Brian Harman.
Christiaan Bezuidenhout.
Is plus 7,500.
Akshay Bhatia, Jordan Spieth, Matt Fitzpatrick,Jason Day, plus 8,000.
he's not lying, though.
What's that?
Bhatia?
The praying mantis at 8,800 might be you mightmake some money on that.
Listen, that is the Brown praying man.
(27:53):
Yeah.
Saw.
That that it was deemed by Buttsy.
Yeah.
You
might just name now.
Reach up to the leader and grab him with hisfront paws and just bite his head off.
Right there on Sunday.
I like him better than Jordan.
I like him better than Matt Fitzpatrick.
I would say him and Jason Day, I would takekinda equally.
Max Homa, who's had two second-place finishesthe last two events he's played in, plus 9.
(28:18):
We're segue.
I did have a dream the other night of Akshay,and he was eating a bird feeder.
Yeah.
Oh, so that's brilliant.
Yeah.
You know, the little cone-shaped ones likethis.
Yeah.
And they're just kinda rock solid made out ofbird seed.
It was him, and he just had his little mantistongs, and he was just kinda nibbling at it.
I was like, that's probably what he eats.
(28:40):
That or bird seed burritos.
One of the two.
Could be either not trying to be weird justwhat I saw.
It's just it was his dream.
It
came to me in a dream.
So there you have that, which that might be asign.
Yeah.
If Akshay Bhatia is visiting you and eatingbird feed?
In my sleep.
With those little praying mantis claws?
Right.
You get it.
I get it.
(29:01):
You see the imagery that I it's probably notfar off from what I experienced.
And I'm already so active.
Yeah.
I woke up.
It was such a good day after that.
Anyways, alright.
Sorry.
No.
That's great.
I love that for us.
Now, Ben An, Tom Hoge, Will Zalatoris, AlexNoren.
Alright.
There's too many freaking names.
(29:22):
I thought 70 was gonna be easy to get through.
Feel like I've been reading these for the past
15 minutes.
As bad as you think.
That was pretty good.
Alright.
Cool.
We're ending it there, though.
Anybody else forget about it?
They're not gonna win.
Hopefully, mark my words.
Hopefully, you don't.
Hopefully, Jake Knapp at plus 40,000 doesn'twin.
Cool.
That might be, at least.
Remember, this is a tight golf course.
(29:43):
Yeah.
But it's a par 70.
This is not a Jake Knapp hit it wherever youwant, bomb the ball.
I know we're at PXG.
What's the old the old white guy saying?
Or even a blind squirrel finds a nut, like
That's true.
He could be a blind squirrel this week.
Jake Knapp could be.
So, did you miss this entire thing?
(30:04):
Rory McIlroy's at plus 900.
He was the third golfer I went over.
What?
Now, let's get into the absolute pull hookpicks here.
Buttsy, who you got?
Chef?
Fuck.
Got Chef.
Now, Kyle made a good point.
He did play bad there last year.
I don't know if that's true at all.
(30:24):
I just think Scheffler's gonna win.
I'm a field player.
And so I like Bhatia, Bhatia, Bhatia.
I like that.
And then I might throw a $10 or a $20 bill onMister Nappenstein.
I'm gonna tell you who's gonna win.
This would be Ludvig Aberg.
Okay.
So Ludvig Aberg.
On him, though.
Ludvig Aberg is one of the straightest drivers,one of the longest straightest drivers on tour.
(30:50):
Yeah.
And you have to hit the ball straight here atTPC Southwind because it is tight.
It is tree-lined.
And I think Ludvig Aberg is gonna have a greatday this week.
I think at the Olympics, he did okay.
And I just think that, you know, he's cominginto this tournament potentially after some
rest, you know, he's had that knee injury,which is kinda set him back a little bit.
(31:14):
And I just think that this could be a good weekwhere the greens aren't gonna be terribly tough
to putt.
So I like Aberg.
Now
He likes Aberg.
Billy.
Oh, Billy.
I'll trot just loves Billy
Oh, and Joe Joe Schuld here, he mentioned toothat, we kept freezing on X.
So, you know, that happens.
(31:37):
That happens.
But Adam Hadwin, look for him.
Adam Hadwin is deep.
In this.
Okay.
Plus 20 plus 20,000.
I think I mentioned, no, I did not.
I cut it off before I went to that.
So yeah, my pick is Ludvig Aberg.
I would also watch out for Collin Morikawacoming off of the Olympics.
He did not have a great Olympics, but he hasbeen in form for so long.
(32:00):
And he's a guy who you're kinda just expectinghim at some point to finally break through with
a victory.
He even said during the Open Championship that,you know, it's kind of a letdown that he hasn't
won any big tournaments yet.
Well?
So
That could be,
Yeah.
And then Cantlay, by the way, finished secondlast year.
(32:22):
So he was the runner-up to Lucas Glover.
Another solid play this week who sneakily hasstarted playing better.
His start of the year was horrendous.
Mhmm.
Probably one of the worst starts that I canremember from a guy at such a high level who's
one of the top 10 players in the world.
Now he's starting to get it back, little bylittle.
(32:44):
So watch out for him.
Ouija board doesn't point that way, though.
I don't know.
No.
You've got Scheffler, which, by the way, is whyI get, like, 10 picks now.
Because it's basically Scheffler versus thefield.
It's a cheap pick.
I get it.
But yep.
Yeah.
Yep.
Now, here's the thing.
So on X, by the way, ever since the whole andgranted.
Now, I'm gonna have to cut this out becauseYouTube will suppress us just by mentioning the
(33:09):
name Trump.
Okay?
We can't advertise our podcast or do anythingwhen we mention him.
Let's just refer to him as T.
Racy.
T.
Racy.
Okay.
There you go.
T.
Racy and 45.
And the Musk.
Okay.
When they did their whole thing yesterday onthe X, it, like, there are apparently attacks
that went on and everything.
(33:30):
So X is a little unstable right now.
Yeah.
K.
So come on over to YouTube.
Check it all out.
Subscribe, like.
I never do them at the beginning of theepisodes, but make sure that no matter what
platform you're on, you're following, you'resubscribing, you're liking, you're adding some
comments.
We love the comments.
Okay?
Oh, absolutely.
So even as the after this live, add comments tothe, to the actual episode that comes out the
(33:56):
next day, the podcast version with thehigh-quality audio and everything, you really
start to love that.
Now, let's get into the Swanie style segment.
This is a fan favorite.
And I wish we had pictures that I could pull upfor everybody, but I'm gonna show Buttsy here,
what I'm talking about.
Now, folks, if you are on Twitter, you cancheck out one of my recent posts on Pull Hook
(34:17):
Golf to where Aaron Rai took a picture of him.
On Sunday.
Look at those shoes.
That that is like that's the kind of shoe thata homeless person has on when you pull up to a
freeway exit and they didn't start the day withthose shoes.
Get in there on.
Somebody refuses to give them money and theyhad that pair of shoes in their back seat.
(34:40):
And they said, here, take these.
And the guy is a size 9 and those are like a13, and he's just wearing them anyways.
That's my take on those.
I get that Aaron Rai was poor.
Those are so bad.
I I get that he was poor growing up.
Right?
You're not poor anymore.
Okay?
No.
Like, get yourself a good pair of shoes.
(35:02):
This is, like, clearly from Ecco.
He doesn't have a shoe deal.
Who are you, Matt Kuchar?
Why don't you go and rent a house?
It's just absolutely lost.
Here, these are the new
Ecco It's horrendous.
Baseball field dirt edition.
K.
So it's just that's amazing that a professionalgolfer was wearing those.
One, it looks like not only are they superdirty.
(35:24):
Okay.
And I'll show you guys again.
K.
Not only are they super dirty, and I know itcan't really zoom in on that, but the bottom
is, like, dirty yellow.
It's just not a good look for, like, getyourself a shoe deal, man.
Lieutenant Dan wouldn't wear those shoes.
Those are bad.
You've won a PGA Tour event now.
(35:44):
There is no excuse for you wearing those.
Now the second part to this is has there everbeen a better player in professional golf that
has worn two weather gloves?
Oh, they're not electrician gloves.
They're not electrician gloves, folks.
Those are weather gloves.
(36:04):
Has there ever been a better player in theworld
What do you think the story is on this?
Do you think he was like a junior golfer?
And
His parents couldn't afford golf gloves oranything?
Is this the story?
Yeah.
Well, this is real.
So was given by a guy, two rain gloves
Yeah.
As a junior golfer, and he's worn them eversince.
(36:26):
Now, very nostalgic guy, because as we even getfurther, that's the other reason why he still
has iron covers.
This is not real.
This is real.
This is real.
Those are iron covers, folks.
And Aaron Rai loves himself some iron covers.
(36:47):
So he still uses them, which by the way, onceagain, when he got his first set of clubs,
Can we
call him so poor that his parents had to, like,do weird things in order to get these clubs for
him.
And sure enough, he's been using iron covers.
Ever since.
But you gotta grow up at some point.
Aaron, Goodwill Rod.
I know.
And he's such a nice guy too, from what I've
(37:08):
heard in arenas.
Of course.
But it's like, dude, at some point, you gottastart acting like you've been there before and
that, like, you have money now.
I don't care that, like, you grew up this way.
Good for you.
Great story and everything, but now you gottamove on.
But also, if I, like, won a tour event withduct tape all over my hands, I would duct tape
(37:29):
my hands for the rest of my life.
So I kinda get it, you know.
There could be some, I don't know.
Like, yeah.
Anti-LIV says that, throw Anti-LIV up here.
Love giving a little Anti-LIV some love.
Tommy Two Gloves' big break.
From Big Break.
Tommy Two
Tommy Gainey was a tour winner.
Right.
Did he win a tour event?
(37:49):
I'm almost positive he did.
Did he?
We need to get
some stats on it.
Oh, God.
Where's Dragolf?
Yeah.
I
was looking it up right now.
Strong golfer.
I don't know.
I would say Aaron Rai is better than Two GlovesTommy Gainey, and I was a big Two Gloves Tommy
Gainey fan, because, man, that was an ugly golfswing.
And he was playing with two gloves.
It just really, like, distorts your reality ina way when guys show up like that, and it is a
(38:16):
distortion of reality when Aaron Rai is wearinghomeless man shoes, two gardening gloves.
And on top of that, he's got covers on hisirons.
There's Tommy Gainey.
He looks like a coal miner from the turn of thecentury.
Tommy Gainey was not
Career wins.
One.
Okay.
One.
So they're tied now.
Oh, yes.
(38:36):
Gary, but he didn't wear them every singleevent.
Gary Player wore two gloves, every, likeTommy's still 390.
Factual, by the way, that Gary Player did weartwo gloves because I've never seen that before,
but I'm gonna believe you, Joe Shell.
And, I'm gonna say that it has to be that theywore it for his entire career, which Aaron Rai
(38:57):
has two gloves.
Tommy Gainey was a good one, but I gotta saythat Aaron Rai is the best two-glove player.
In the world.
Now if you take it a step further and say,who's the best golfer that has worn rain gloves
every single event, it's clearly Aaron Rai.
Clearly.
Right?
Am I wrong on this?
No.
(39:17):
This is wild to me.
Okay.
So James Warren says, did Tommy Two Glovesspend some time in the clink recently?
So Tommy Two Gloves has not had a great recentrun.
We don't got time to dig into that right now.
We are getting locked out of here.
And here's the thing, folks.
We've got Liv Golf Greenbrier that we stillgotta go through the entire thing.
(39:40):
So we're moving on from the Swanee stylesegment.
I think we saw Bob Parsons do burnout on aHarley in the parking lot.
That was actually pretty cool.
I saw that too.
Yeah.
I
thought he'd actually dislocated his hip.
He's not happy.
We're taking up way too much of his time.
And that's perfectly fine.
Now he's got the keys, though.
Liv Golf Greenbrier.
Strap in, folks, because this is gonna be fire.
(40:00):
We're starting hot.
With Liv Golf Greenbrier.
Okay?
Did Graeme McDowell just become the posterchild for failed drug tests on Liv?
You have a theory on this, and you think it wasa you you got a conspiracy on Graeme.
Well, we've been talking about and we got thisfrom caddies on tour and everything that the
PGA Tour ever since LIV came in, hasn't beendrug testing.
(40:23):
Now I heard on LIV as well that they didn'tdrug test the first two seasons.
So I'm curious to hear.
Did you dig up anything on this year?
I did not.
I have not heard anything about anybody beingtested for shit.
So that's very strange.
And this
was a new one for me.
And then
For LIV.
Vicks nasal spray.
(40:44):
Oh, hang.
Okay.
Alright.
I didn't even know they made a nasal spray.
I I
need a sip of water before we just dive hardinto this.
It what's in the nasal spray?
Folks, Graeme McDowell comes out, right?
And he puts a post out on Twitter as well as onInstagram and goes, You know, and he takes a
shot.
He takes a dig at the PGA Tour somehow, someway, within that whole thing, but he goes I
(41:08):
didn't realize that Vicks nasal spray was onthe list for
I wonder what's in it.
First
off.
Cocaine.
Well, like, I don't know.
It's not performance enhancing.
I mean, have you seen G-Mac?
It's not like this guy is shooting Tren beforeevents.
Dude, when did Vicks nasal spray become I
(41:29):
wonder what's in it.
Does it have any type of an amphetamine?
That you're still going down the path of, like,what ingredient is it that you get popped for?
I gotta look it up.
There's no fucking chance that this is a realthing.
I might be.
I actually didn't even think to look this uphere.
My conspiracy with all of this and anti LIV,someone ratted him out who says anti LIVing.
(41:50):
Now here's the thing.
I don't, and, folks, put on your, metal capsright now.
Okay?
The tin foil caps that point up and, aliens arecoming, all this stuff because it's conspiracy
time.
So real quick before you do that, it hasoxymetazoline and hydro or oxymetazoline
(42:11):
hydrochloride.
That's it.
So which one's banned?
No, that's it.
It's one ingredient.
It must be banned.
It must have set off a trigger or somebody.
It's unbelievable.
Put a little bit of extra sauce.
Little suits.
Now, conspiracy time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Did LIV find out that the PGA Tour had stoppeddrug testing?
And all of a sudden, they go, we need to makean example out of one of our players and we
(42:37):
gotta get one up on the PGA Tour here.
And, you know, we're the better tour.
We're the one that, you know, is moreresponsible.
Yeah.
So, that being said, did they create a fallguy?
Is it a GMAC default guy?
Is he the fall guy?
Oh.
And a minor infraction.
Right?
Because it's like, oh, I put some nasal sprayup my nose.
(42:59):
And I got it.
And somebody just made a really good comment.
That's not far off.
I would test Gary Player as well.
He's on that BP 157, Wolverine, whatever.
But sorry.
Go on.
The Deer Antlers.
Right?
The Deer Antler up is whatever.
We yeah.
Dude, I Yeah.
Shoots it in his toes so you can't see the
I don't know what's more weird.
The fact that we found out that LIV Golf isapparently drug testing or that Graeme McDowell
(43:23):
popped because it's not just drug testing.
They tested GMAC.
He's gotta be the shortest hitter out there.
Like, what are you testing for out of jail?
What are you testing this guy?
Just trying to be on the LIV Golf longer.
Yeah.
You know?
He's on that off the Oxy Methazinehydrochloride, dude.
Jesus.
I just it doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
I'm flabbergasted by this whole report.
(43:44):
And everything around G-Mac.
He got suspended for the last two events.
I'm gonna start doing Vicks Vicks, nasal spraybefore every and video tape.
Do you think they brought them ready?
A Brink's truck over to his house, dropped offa bunch of money, and they're like, You're
gonna be our fall guy for this, but you'regonna you're gonna get a two-week rest.
Yeah.
And then you're gonna be right back in.
(44:05):
And we bought you a beautiful G-Mac boat saysG-Mac on the back, or you can sail right into
the sunset after this.
What if he showed up with the Lamborghini yachtthat Conor McGregor has.
Good.
One of, like, twenty.
Right?
G-Mac on the back.
The G-Mac on the back.
Vicks, vapor rub, like, a NASCAR down the side.
It's a logo.
(44:26):
What great promotion?
I've never said Vicks nasal spray
So many times.
Longer than on this episode.
We'll
reach out.
In my entire life, we'll have
our people reach out to other
people for sure.
I think we need a sponsorship just forreporting on Vicks nasal spray.
So I'm really, once again, flabbergasted bythis whole fucking thing.
I don't I just don't believe it.
(44:46):
No.
I don't believe it at all.
Like, this is the most conspiracy driven thatI've been around LIV Golf.
And, anti sense, does he get relegated?
Don't worry.
We're gonna get to the relegation here in asecond.
And why do you know that?
Yeah.
Exactly.
Why do you even know about relegation here,Buttsy?
I live because you actually study LIV Golf inorder to hate on it, which I actually
(45:07):
appreciate.
It's kinda crazy, though, too.
But he actually knows his stuff, which ishilarious.
Very dedicated.
Or she, depending on I have no idea.
Would he do that if I was
to get paid?
A man or a female.
Anyways,
now moving on.
LIV Golf is back in America, which is Bryson,once again, the favorite to win.
And that's a question to you, Buttsy.
You mean, like, is he my favorite to win?
(45:30):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Probably.
Oh my god.
Put that comment up there from Joel Schulz.
That's actually hilarious.
Vicks is the new sponsor of Smash Golf.
Might be.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's cool.
Every pharmacy in the world just went sold outevery golfer.
Yeah.
You tried this shit yet?
Yeah.
No.
Graham did.
Is there something in there that all we'regonna play better golf.
(45:52):
Pick up fifty yards, you know?
Like, I
don't know.
You wanna try it out?
Yeah.
I don't know.
Good.
Should we do a YouTube episode on the golfcourse and just rip Vicks nasal spray.
Yeah.
I don't know if you can OD on it.
That'd be a shitty way to end that episode.
That'd be cool.
What happened?
Oh, well.
Oh, Buttsy's down.
What happened to him?
Went to the hospital.
Too much of it.
(46:12):
He was
trying to enhance his performance.
You know, that's why they ban it.
On the LIV Golf circuit.
Yeah.
Fantastic.
Alright.
Okay.
Moving back to, is Bryson gonna win?
Because especially after last year, he shot a58 at the Greenbrier.
Can you
back it up?
I don't know, man.
I'm not sure.
I haven't decided if Bryson is now shiftedcompletely into how well his YouTube videos are
(46:38):
doing or if he's, like, still over here.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Very interesting.
He does consider himself a content creator.
He wants an invite to the Creator Classic justlike we do.
He's very into it.
Now who deserves more of a creator invite?
Us or Bryson?
Not us.
I think so.
Yeah.
We create.
I agree.
We create hard.
Yeah.
(46:59):
Yeah.
Now, the one thing that I will say is I didfind out that the Krank CEO is traveling with
Bryson this week.
Yeah.
So does that mean that they're gonna betweaking around his driver a little bit?
Oh, there's probably, like, a club repair shopon the private jet, if I had to guess.
I love that.
Sitting there tinkering as we speak.
That would be a sick job to be making golfclubs.
(47:21):
Yeah.
On a private jet.
Tour van in the sky.
Talk about it.
Imagine that.
Oh, it'd be awesome.
We gotta talk to Bob about this.
Yes.
A little simulator set up in the back.
Let's go.
Oh, shit.
I think Buttsy's onto something here.
Hell of an idea.
You're cheap.
As we move into This is one of the last twoevents of the regular season at the Greenbrier.
(47:44):
Then we got Chicago as the final regularseason.
Let's go over some team standings here.
Okay?
Two-team race right now.
For the regular season win, we got theCrushers.
We got Legion 13.
So that is Bryson's team versus Jon Rahm'steam.
Yeah.
Only 15 points separate the two teams.
And if you wanna be exact, it's 15.5 for allthe LIV people that we just wanna say that I
(48:09):
hate on them all the time.
I know my shit, fifteen and a half points,folks.
Now the other side to this is that Ripper GCand Torque are fighting for third place.
Do you really give a shit who's fighting forthird place?
Not even.
Either.
The slightest bit.
Not over.
Yeah.
Yep.
They're literally not the best loser even.
So no.
(48:29):
You got that going for you, which theindividual standings, we've got Joaquin Niemann
in first.
He's got 189.4 points.
We got Rahm in second at 165.17.
Do you know what any of this means?
No.
Nope.
I love it.
143.49 points in third place.
(48:49):
What that means is that, yeah, it's a battlebetween Niemann and Rahm, really, for the
regular season individual standings.
Do we care?
No.
Not really.
I mean, listen, is it the team that we'resupposed to care about, or is it the
individual?
I like watching the last round when there's twoteams like, duking it out for sure.
(49:13):
I love how the team's just like, it gets sothere's so much change
that can happen.
I like that part.
That's it.
I like to know that there's two teams duking itout.
It's close.
So this team beat that team.
That's cool.
But in terms of the stats and, like, wherethey're at in the season.
I I don't know.
I don't
care.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Alright.
Fair enough.
Now, relegation, Annie Lee was just talkingabout this.
(49:33):
Does this move Graeme McDowell into therelegation world, no, it does not.
Because I will say this, Harold Varner III iscurrently 47th, which only the top 48 guys stay
on LIV Golf.
Okay?
The rest of the players are in relegation,which means that they are off of the LIV Golf
(49:58):
circuit and they gotta try to qualify.
Now, Annie Lee says, just FYI, Saudi Airlinesadded golf simulators to A380s to support the
new Saudi golf tour in 2022.
I did not know that.
I hope that's real because that's that's
so tight.
If you're putting
more simulators on airplanes.
So tight.
Pretty pretty dope until you hit someturbulence.
(50:19):
Yeah.
Then all of a sudden, you're breaking necks.
You're snapping shafts.
Yeah.
It's gonna get weird up there.
Mhmm.
But you know what?
Good for them.
The Saudis are thinking of everything.
Now with that said, HV3, I did talk to somebodywho played with HV3 the other day.
Mhmm.
And he said that his game looks really solid.
He's working his ass off right now because he'sin 47th.
(50:41):
Is that right?
He's at risk.
We gotta get it going.
And remember, he had the DWI at the beginningof the year.
Yeah.
I know.
So his year got screwed up.
Absolutely.
Right off the bat.
Perez, your buddy.
He's on the bubble at 48.
He's the last man in right now.
He's got 7.76 points.
He's gotta get it done.
(51:02):
I like, he's gotta get we we gotta have a goodweek.
Yep.
And here's the thing.
Greenbrier should be a spot that he could playpretty well at.
So, currently in relegation is Vincent, Cantor,Bubba Watson, Samooja, Grace, Vincent.
So the two Vincent brothers are both inrelegation, Swafford, Hudson Swafford that is,
(51:23):
and your man and my man, Anthony Kim.
Anthony Kim is not gonna win this year.
Still I'm still pulling for him.
There's a chance.
What would you that would just
I would love to have it with the poddeductible.
Yeah.
I just don't think he's gonna get it done thisyear.
He's too far away from really competing at thispoint.
(51:44):
He needs a year.
Perez very well might get it done.
Yeah.
I hope so.
Mean,
what did he do on tour?
Right?
Twenty, twenty-five years never lost his card.
We'll see.
Yeah.
You shall see.
So, he's just gonna have to put it into gear,though.
Big time.
Let's go through a quick little golf picks, butlouder.
(52:05):
Buttsy, who's your individual player to winthis week?
We got the B.
Bryson?
Yeah.
I'm not I mean, I I think he will win, but I'mnot sure where his head at.
What team do you think's gonna win?
I'm going Crushers.
K.
That's his team.
So I'm gonna do the exact opposite, and I'mgonna be really, really, really, really,
(52:29):
Really?
Really?
Lay about this.
Really lame.
I'm gonna go Jon Rahm, and I'm gonna go Legion13.
So, it just matches up that way.
It's not that, like, I'm just throwing in ananswer and being like, oh, this is the case
end, you know, what?
(52:50):
Jon Rahm's gonna win.
No.
And then we did have, Joe Schultz says that,he's got DJ to win, truck golfers counting on
Pat Perez to come through
That would be cool.
Get the job done.
That would be really cool.
Let's see.
What does Joel just say?
Elon Musk just invited Pull Hook Podcast to thefirst Tesla $20,000,000 charity tournament in
(53:15):
type.
Done.
You would be there.
We live 100%.
And we're gonna win that.
Yep.
Like, if it's a two-man team event, we win it.
If not, you're looking at first and second.
I'll jump 60 buses in a Cybertruck.
Like, no helmet.
Let's go.
And this guy, sneaky good right now.
PhD's got him dialed.
He's the best golf he has ever played, outsideof when he used to play competitively.
(53:38):
So yeah.
Yeah.
We're doing alright.
Yeah.
The game's kinda nice.
I laughed when he's like, you know, I'mshooting low seventies right now.
And you thought that I was effing with you.
Like, it wasn't possible that you were shootingin the 70s.
I'm just like, yeah.
No shit.
Sure a lot.
Because the whole time you're going, yeah,we're shooting about the same.
I'm on my path to, like, shooting 90.
(53:59):
You said you're gonna shoot 90.
Yeah.
I thought for sure.
I was gonna say I did not shoot 90.
Oh.
I did break 90.
But I had a horrible, horrible day.
It just
That's a tough golf course.
Go from 90.
No.
But golf reminds you that you can't take suchlong breaks in between play.
No.
No.
If you're gonna do anything, you have to playat least once a week, keep it together.
(54:21):
For sure.
And I last time we played, I still kept ittogether and actually played pretty well.
But this gap, once again, was it was just toomuch.
And, to your question, Troy, yeah, he is stilla PXG guy.
Actually, he was in here the other day.
He has some sexy-looking oil can wedges backthere.
Pretty cool.
Wow.
Yeah.
(54:42):
Yeah.
He still plays the equipment.
Looks like we gotta lube somebody up backthere.
So that's pretty much that simple.
Start subscribing, start liking, and we'll getthere eventually.
Yeah.
The Track Golfer also mentioned let's see ifthat hat looks good.
I told him before we got on.
It's a good one.
Gosh.
Yeah.
It's good.
It's just my big no.
