Brandon Grace. Thank you so much and welcome 
to the show. Thanks for having me. Glad to see you here. Glad to see you. Good to see you 
playing in good form. Uh this course hasn’t been too friendly to people and we had some uh 
condition records as well that uh you know took some of us by surprise. But that has not seemed 
to slow you down a bit, my friend. Yeah. Um no, this is tough. This this place is brutal. 
Um Gonza, you’ve played here a few times. Bet’s been here. Um, you know, this place 
can make you look silly at times, but um, your good shots can turn out badly and your bad 
ones can turn out good. But, um, just have to try, try, stay patient, grind it out, and take as 
take it as it comes, but, you know, um, I had Pat on the golf course there with me today, and 
he was like, man, you built for this place. So, um, you know, I like this place. I like 
being creative. I like flighting it, shaping, and that sort of stuff. So, um, it was just taking 
those opportunities when I came away today. Well, uh, you know, we’ve been planning on talking about 
you today, but fans would much rather hear from your mouth directly. So, we’re glad to have you. 
Can you tell us what’s what’s working for you out there? Yeah. Um, I felt I was really good from Ter 
Green today as again. Um, couple of errand shots, maybe one bad shot on the on the fourth hole, the 
par five. Um, I hit away where it left and then I actually hit a good shot on the next. Just the 
wind didn’t carry it as as far as I thought and um then I played really solid from there on in. 
Um, didn’t make any mistakes coming in which is good. You know, that the last five holes are tough 
and um, you know, managed to make a few, which was nice. So, what’s the different you know, where the 
hell have you been all year by the way? I mean, miss seeing you at the top. I mean, I mean, you 
won in Portland, but you know, I know you’re not where you want to be, obviously, but what is 
different obviously this week? Yeah, listen, I felt that um you know, as as most people are, 
I’ve been struggling with my hand. It’s um been pulling me back. I’ve probably um probably not 
practicing as hard as I can or what I would have liked to. And um you know, just have some things 
where sometimes, you know, mind play some games with you, you know. So, um trying to hit good 
shots. I feel that the positivity and things like that. you know me, I’m always positive and upbeat, 
but um you know, sometimes when you when you can’t do what you know you should be doing, it it’s 
tough and um but I feel like I’ve got everything under control. Um take it on the chin and just 
keep going on with it. So um and like I said, you know, coming here this week, a lot of people 
hate it. Um so, you know, you get that mindset, you only have to beat half the guys out here. So, 
um so I I’m pretty good with things like that. So, um but it was but it’s been fun. It’s been 
brutal and um I’ve enjoying it so far. Brandon, the guys we’ve we’ve been lucky to play together 
many times. I mean, and with you, it’s it’s you can shape the ball both ways and you control the 
trajectory of the the ball phenomenally. I mean, try to explain to our viewers, I mean, how 
important around this course is to control the trajectory and to be able I mean, especially on 
these windy and firm conditions. It is um I think if you look at a lot of the bombers out here, 
you know, there’s a there’s so many dog legs. I think every hole is a dog leg out here. There’s 
not one straight hole out here. So, a lot of guys think they can go over the trees and that’s when 
the h the wind starts um hitting it. So, for me, um I take try to take a lot of speed off of 
the golf shots. Try to get the flight down, let it run, try to keep it as, you know, closer 
to the ground as possible. And um just um try to get comfortable. I think that’s the one thing in 
the wind. Just, you know, you you have to hit what you see. You don’t a caddy can’t tell you how to 
hit it out here in in especially in this wind. Um, you know, I have Muel that works for this thing 
is out there on the team this week and on my bag and um, you know, it was just a lot of times you 
hit whatever you see. So, um, so it’s been working so far. So, it’s been good. Now, what would you 
say? Um, actually, we want to do something with you called the form check. So, we have fans submit 
their swing and then we have you check their form. It’s not as fun when you’re nice. Okay. I’m just 
being honest. He’s too nice. Be brutally honest if you can and the fans will enjoy it. But, uh, 
are you down to do that with us? Let’s go for it. All right, here is form check on the Club 
54 post round show. Brandon Grace edition. And here’s the first one from Connor. He’s 7 years 
old. Let’s see how this goes. All right. That was good. Okay. Yeah, that was good. We’re off to 
a good start there. Great job. Smoked. All right. Listen, that was good. But you know, that guy 
spends way too much time on the golf course. You know, when you have your own little hitting mat on 
the beach, you know things are going your way. So, uh, but that was good. That was really 
popular. That was pretty good, by the way. Brighton. That is the Bryson 
there. Jeez. About to say, listen, it’s good to see the young kids in 
the game. Very old. Doesn’t matter how they do it. Pretty impressive. A lot of kids. Yeah, 
pretty good so far. That’s been good. Listen, when is the bad ones coming? You know, you told 
me. You told me to be brutally honest. How’s this going? We just take the submissions. These guys 
are good. All right, here’s another one. Okay, good enough. It looked a little bit like you. Oh, 
good. A little bit of stuff on there. That’s the response we were looking for. Exactly. Thanks 
for that. All right, so we obviously know where you’re at. You know where you’re at. What’s the 
mindset tomorrow? We know you got to get a lot of points. Are you thinking win or are you thinking, 
you know, where to finish? I mean, you got to get in the open zone. I know you want to get in the 
24. Yeah. I mean, listen, I know you work hard, but what is the mindset tomorrow to get as 
far up that board as you can or are you just not going to think about it? Play the course. 
The guys in the media center just asked me, you know, for me, I thought my season was over in 
Korea when I when I had to pull out. So, for me, everything that’s coming now is a bonus. You 
know, it’s um I’m just enjoying playing golf, you know. I’m I’m I’m really having good time. 
The guys have been great. They’ve been they’ve got my back, you know. They always have my back. 
And um you know today I thought I would have been a little bit more nervous especially the way that 
the last couple years have been going but I felt good. You know I felt like um that’s where I was 
that’s where I belong. Do you think this kind of golf is helping you this week where you don’t have 
to worry about like this big long course and all that kind of stuff. You know like Gonzo said and I 
told you earlier the way you shape it and the way we you know we played so many times to see you 
hit these little you know low slices and hooks and whatever you can hit it in all directions. I 
mean I think it’s probably helped you a little bit this way. 100%. I think as well knowing that, you 
know, a round like DJs is phenomenal. You know, you’re never going to see that. If you see that 
once 8 200 minutes, it’s it is what it is. But, you know, for me, it’s just going out there 
hitting my targets and and trying to make a few putts and keeping those numbers off the 
scorecard. Um, whatever happens happens. Listen, I’m I’m here for the team. I’m trying to do my 
best. They know I’m I’m giving it my best. So, you know, I’m going to go out there. I’m trying 
to win a golf tournament. I know if I can get out there and I can shoot two, three under, um, 
I’m going to be in with a chance. you know, unless Taylor goes and he plays phenomenal golf 
and he um he makes four or five birdies and so be it. But um I can just control what I’m going to 
do and I’m going to give it a give it a go. Well, I’ll be with you tomorrow. I’m looking forward 
to watch again. Again? Oh, yeah. He’s told me he told me, “Listen, we’re not going to see 
you and I’ve got him to man.” Well, you two have fun. Good luck tomorrow, man. Thanks for 
joining us. All right. We’ll see with you guys.
