Speaker 1 (00:02):
It's the golf show on the ticket. So you're a
Cult Are you a Cult?

Speaker 2 (00:09):
NOS fan? Yeah? I like Colt notes not so much.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Really, No, Well, you're gonna get more of him next year.
I don't really like this because CBS is going to
copy what NBC does with the super booth. It's not
just going to be Nance and Emmelman in the main tower.
They're going to do what NBC does, and it's going
to be Nance and Emmelman and Frank Novolo uh and

(00:34):
Cult nost all in the booth together, and with Ian
Baker Finch retiring, Uh, they'll have those four guys calling golf.
And then Coulton doesn't have to be on the on
the following the groups anymore. I haven't heard who they're
going to get to take his place on the course.
Dottie Pepper will be with the final group, and then

(00:54):
Cult will be with someone with someone else, or whoever
replaces Cult will be with somebody else. But are going
to go from somebody in every tower to a four
man TV booth, and of course they have all the
monitors out there to see all the holes, and then
the reporters whoever is joining Dottie Pepper. The difference will
be at the Masters. At the Masters, for years, they

(01:17):
would not allow somebody to walk the course. They have
now allowed one, and that's Dottie Pepper. So Dottie gets
to follow the final group inside the ropes. But the
tradition at the Masters forever was the only people inside
the ropes were the players, the caddies, the standard bearer,
and the and the referee. They've added another person so
that so that Dottie Pepper can measure shots and give

(01:39):
you better distance opportunities and no more precisely what clubs
are hitting.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
Well, I think Colt's probably pretty happy about this and
that equipment. Yeah, pretty good for him.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Yeah, yeah, Colts.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
The Lady's like, yeah, I don't have to walk seven
miles a day anymore. Yeah, I can sit in the
booth and drink whatever I'm drinking and and hang out
with Nance and everybody else.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
You know, that's all right.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
I the way that technology is happening these days, and
I'm never a fan of any kind of a remote
like broadcast, I think you can definitely tell the difference
as long as you're on site, because I think announcers
have to feel the emotion of the of the game.
You can't do that from a studio monitor. And the

(02:23):
Champions Tour has been heavily criticized because Greg Papa and
Paul Aisinger basically call the action from a studio in
Britain Cromwell, Connecticut for except for the three or four
big events where they go out on site. And I
just don't think you can feel the emotion of the
crowd and feel what's going on at the event unless
you're there. But it's an expense thing that the Champions

(02:46):
Tour does not want to pay or force NBC in
Peacock Comcast to pay for. But at least they're on
site and NBC has been able to pull it off.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
And now CBS is going to go in that direction,
all right.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
Rory mackleroy was asked about his Champions Judge is a
title at the Masters, And here's something that we talk
about also with these professional golfers who have all the
money in the world and now need to.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
Figure out what they're going to do with their lives.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
And I always think the ones the athletes I like
the most are the ones that just love competition and
can't get enough of it. But and I do agree
with this. Rory said, I don't know how I'm gonna
play at the Masters next year. Last year was such
an emotional time for me winning that that I spend
a lot of energy. I don't know how I get
that kind of energy back. And I used to hear
football coaches talk about this all the time. You have

(03:36):
a game the first last weekend in September against well,
when I was growing up, it was oh you, and
they would play some patsy like Kansas Ctate he wasn't
very good. And then the next week they have to
go play Texas and it was always an emotional game.
And then the next week they go play Kansas, and
then sometimes they would you know, mess things up against
Kansas because they spend all their emotion on the Texas game.

(03:56):
I don't know how golfers regain this, but I would
think that I have a year Rory would have some
positive memories of Augusta, and now he can add to
his legacy if he can keep winning multiple Green jackets,
which was predicted of him ten years ago.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
Well, the person that comes to mind for me is Phil.
He took forever to finally break through, and then he's
got that famous picture him jumping about an inch off
the ground, and I don't know if his toast got
off the ground. But once he won, then it was
kind of like the floodgates open and he won multiple jackets,
and so I don't know. I mean, it wouldn't shock
me if Rory was to do something like that.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
Yeah, I think so.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
I think he some people, you know, I think myself
would be one of them. You know, if I were
able to win an event like that, I think my
emotions would be, like.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
You know, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (04:46):
I mean, I think winning that was great, but I
don't know if I can ever do it again. I
mean I think you pull yourself back, but inside you're going, yeah,
I'm going to win that again, you know. I mean,
you know, he's you kind of like some people are
more bostful, like I'm going to win that again. I'm
going out there, I'm taking it. I'm going to do it.
You know, I think nobody's got a chance.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
I think Tiger was motivated to win eighteen majors, right,
and I still think he is still motivated to win
eighteen majors, even though it's likely never going to happen.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
But Tiger played in an era.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
When he first got on tour, the first place check
was one hundred and eighty thousand dollars, not one point
eight million. And now you have guys like Rory and
every day they look at their bank account and it's
substantially more than it was than the day before because
of the money that they earn. I just wonder where
the fine line comes between I want to solidify my

(05:35):
legacy or I just want to be rich. I think,
I mean, I don't want to put Dustin Johnson down
any more than I already have. But I think Dustin
Johnson enjoys the fact that he's got a yacht, a
beautiful family, and probably fifty million bucks in the bank
more than playing a lot of golf. And he doesn't
have to play a lot of golf, and he can
do whatever he wants, whenever he wants. But to me,

(05:55):
the greatest athletes of all time are the ones that
embrace competition and can't wait to solidify their legacy.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
And I hope that's what Roy chooses to do. Well.

Speaker 4 (06:04):
Like tomorrow, Keiths is getting ready to run a half marathon,
you know, and I was a a way better runner
than I was a golfer, and but I was very
competitive when I ran, but my but I wasn't as
an individual competition is like golf is. But my I
was telling Keiths, you know many times I said, I
was always like focused on the runner in front of me,

(06:27):
like I wanted to take that next runner, not the
runner in front of him, you know, and one runner
at a time, and so on golf.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
But you got the field. Let's be clear.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
MY goal for the half marathon is a lot different
than Mark's.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
I hope to finish.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
I hope, I hope I'm back on the show whenever
the next next show is. But no, I agree with
what Mark is saying, right, like everyone's got their own goals.
My goals are different than his. You know, I got
a rough time that I want to run. But but
at the end of.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
The day, it's a completion goal. You've worked hard here
it is, let's do it.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
But from Rory's perspective, I think he puts so much
pressure on himself to win that Grand Slam, and I
think now that it's done, I mean, only time will tell,
but now there's not as much pressure to get it done.
And he seemed to always it should help her, It
should help him. He should now be able to relax
a little bit and just compete. And I think he

(07:25):
still wants to win. It's just that that pressure he
put on himself isn't there anymore.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Well, I've said this about my personal golf game. If
I play well right now, I'm going to break eighty.
If I play really well, I'm going to break seventy five,
and occasionally I'm going to be around or under par
once or twice every other year. I can shoot seventy two,
seventy one, but I can, and as long as I
can play that good of golf, I want to play golf.

(07:50):
There are a lot of people that don't care if
they shoot seventy five or one hundred and five. They
just like being outside and nothing against that. The more
people that play golf, it promotes the game. I love
the fact that you're out there. But when I played poorly,
I don't really care about playing golf for a day
or two, and or I don't enjoy the experience. So
you know, I've gone to golf courses where I played

(08:11):
super well. I played Mirfield this year and shot seventy four,
and it could have been seventy seventy two, if I'd
have made a couple of puts on the back nine,
I enjoyed that day any more than any other day
on the on the on the on the fourteen d eight
eleven round golf event. But when I would go play
another golf course in shoot.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
Eighty six, I didn't have a very good day.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
And if eighty six or ninety is my new target score,
I don't know how much I want to play.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
I think when.

Speaker 4 (08:36):
Rory drives in Magnorey Lane a day of the you know,
the start of the competition, I think those juices are flow.
Just like you know, after you get through running your
marathon or half marathon tomorrow, you're gonna like, I'm never
going to run another one, you know. But once that
body kind of you know, reconditioned itself, you're gonna go
I think I'm gonna go run another I'm gonna go
run five millar and you know then you kind of go, okay,

(08:57):
I'm ready, you know whatever. So yeah, once you get
you know, I passed that like hurt, you know whatever,
which I think Rory still got that hurt.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
There's a hurt after a while. Yeah, you know, all right,
one more segment to go. We'll wrap up the day next,
tell you what's going on at the Bahamas, and a
couple of Christmas gift ideas on the ticket
