Speaker 1 (00:03):
All right, it's the Golf Show on the tickets Andy Ever,
along with Keith Becker and Mark Valier from MK Golf.
So I've encouraged people that if you are giving Christmas
gifts to the golfer in your family, make sure it's
a gift card, because then they can get what they
actually want. Don't assume that what they need. So what's
(00:23):
the worst golf Christmas gift you've ever gotten?
Speaker 2 (00:28):
That probably sucks? I guess you know.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
I mean, I don't know, you haven't gotten the Top
Flight xouts.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
No, I don't know if I have family members listening,
so I'll decline to answer that question.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Well, I don't care if they're listening or not. But
this was right before when I was first married. Of course,
we do the draw names thing and somebody I don't
even remember who it was, they bought me the top
Flight xouts, like nine dollars a dozen or whatever. And
so we're headed home and my wife says, you didn't
seem too excited with that gift that you got.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Oh well, no offense.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
And this may sound like a golf snob that those
golf balls are going to get hit in the nearest
woods or lake they're going to be donated to charity
at some point because they're not going to be played,
and I should just tell them from now on to
get me a gift card.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
That happens a lot in the Secret Deal.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Or unless I give you a specific item to buy
on the Amazon list, you know, don't assume that I
want something that's similar to it.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
I want that specific item.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
That's what we do now, is we'll get an exact
Amazon list. Hey, this is what I want. It's okay.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
You don't have to surprise me.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
I would rather just get what exactly because and you know,
there are some people that play golf, unless I said before,
they don't care what they shoot, and they're just out
there and enjoy the outside and have a good time.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
And that's great.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
And then there's us in this room that really do
care what we do, and we're not going to have
a good time if we're not playing at a certain level.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
All right.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Also the Bahamas event, the Hero World Challenge, Dekie Matziama
was playing well there for a while. Cameron Young had
a big day yesterday, and of course Scottie's right there
around the leaders once again.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
I was watching yesterday. I mean Scotty was playing pretty
good and he had that double on one hole and.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
You hit it in a tree or bush and take unplayable.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
So but uh now, two more rounds today and tomorrow,
I mean, but big football day. You know, Georgia Alabama.
You picked Alabama. I can't believe you picked Alabama.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
Yeah. I think Alabama's going to beat Georgia.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
I'm taking your money George winning that.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
I'm just looking forward to to. Was it two za
or when are they going to do the Is it tomorrow? Tomorrow?
The selection they have the selection show for the for
the twelve. That's what I'm looking for.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Texas, Texas, Texas beating b Yu. Yes, Ohio State's going
to be Indiana, I think so. So. I guess that's
no surprise.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
There, I think.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Well, the only way we disagree on is Alabama in Georgia. Yeah,
and I'll be interesting if Georgia wins. If Alabama gets
in with three losses, because there's other three loss teams,
it's likely not going to get in.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, Texas getting in, I don't.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Think they are.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
They maybe they should, but they're not getting in. They
beat Oklahoma, come on, Yeah, but Oklahoma's getting in. They're
already in. Yeah, yeah, they're probably the eighth seed and
that's probably already same.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Maybe they'll play if Texas gets in, Maybe they'll play Texas.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I know they've already played once. We don't need that
rematch till the next October. It's never the same. A
couple of years ago they played in the Big twelve Championship.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Game and that was just anti climatic. Yeah, it was.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
The majors next year are at other obviously at Augusta,
but the PGA is an aeronomic in Philadelphia. That's going
to be dicey weather because it's May and it can
still be cold in Philadelphia at that time. The US
Open is at Shinnacock, and we know the USGA is
probably going to take that golf course to an extreme condition,
almost unplayable. And the Open Championship is at Birkdale. The
(03:53):
Open Championship in twenty seven is at Saint Andrews. They're
already doing construction on that golf course to add LinkedIn
buckers to it. But what are your thoughts on I
don't remember the last time they played in the have
been at Ironomic Shinnacock. The last time it was the
gap Kapco win at the US Open in eighteen and
the ball wouldn't stay on the green and burke tale
is where Justin or Jordan Spieth had his memorable hall
(04:16):
a few years ago.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Got about twenty seconds. What are your thoughts on that?
Speaker 2 (04:20):
I like, well, even.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Part is a good score at shinnikok Oh, that Rover.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Probably is going to win.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I like win at Shinnecock and Aeronomack. I'm not familiar
with that golf course too much, But.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
All right, Merry Christmas, guys. We'll see you next, see
you in January. Have a good golfing time wherever you go.

twenty seventh, at least for.
