[Music] [Music] This episode of Inside Golf Podcast is brought to you by Inside Sports Network. What’s up everybody? It’s uh your boy Boston Capitalist Steve on the Hold the Green podcast. All right, we are live. Tap in Bernie. All right, Carson Young is here. I bet love at 20. Let’s go. I bet I bet I bet him at 25. Low sevens. I think there’s some guys in here we like. Harris, do you wish 7300? I love Brian Harmon at 3 and a half% this week. [Music] What is up everybody? Happy Tuesday night. It’s your boy Kapper with Twitter Steve here to break down the WGC. St. Jude Steve. Oh, you fell. You fell for it too. What? Not the WGC anymore is not the WGC anymore. That’s right. What do they call this now? Just the St. June classic. Well, what’s funny is I was actually gonna introduce this show of are you ready to memorialize the great winners of the FedEx St. Jude championship like Patrick Reed did it Beth Page or Tony Fen now or so basically they combined the Barclays and the the Northern Trust or the Dallas Technologies into this tournament now. And if you actually go back and look at the history, they try and shoehorn. It’s like when they go on like Golf Channel, they say like, “Oh, well, you know, Tiger Woods won the St. Jude Championship once upon a time.” No, he didn’t. He won the Bridgestone. And so it all the history is completely screwed up now. But in this week, we have the St. Jude Championship, which a terrible It’s a terrible place. It’s going to be 110 [ __ ] degrees out. Like I bet the fat guy. I already regret it. Yeah. Well, I I always know it’s St. Jude week because I always get a cold call from St. Jude. Uh because they look in their database and they’re like, “Hey, this guy from Rochester, New York just randomly donates a hundred bucks around like August or so. Why don’t we call him and see if he’s actually ready?” I actually got that cold call today. I didn’t answer, but I got that cold call today. I’m like, “You know what? Don’t worry. Don’t worry. It’s coming in some form or fashion.” Uh I will post the link by the way after this uh in our Discord to donate uh to St. Jude Children’s Hospital. Definitely something to do. But uh yeah, with we’re kicking off St. Jude week with a cold caller asking for money uh for their wonderful uh charity. Who was it? Was it Danny Danny K started uh St. Jude, right? No, I think Danny Thomas is his name. Danny Thomas. Danny Thomas. Yep. Yeah. Yeah. It’s crazy. like just celebrity who likes I want to start a children’s hospital to take care of kids with cancer and just started it and it’s still going and it’s it’s got to be the most well-known children’s charity in the world, right? Probably. Yeah. I mean, it’s it’s it’s worldrenown. I mean, the the Shriner’s Children’s Hospital is also pretty world, you know, worldrenowned, too. Rest in peace that tournament, by the way. Um they’re no longer doing going there. So, but yeah, like we’ll post the link in the Discord. Make sure you donate this week. uh take a little bit of your winnings and hopefully an outright uh this week. Uh hopefully we both hit an outright after coming very close the last two months. Uh it’s time. We are long overdue. I like my bets this week. So I did a lot of talking. Well, actually we both did a lot of talking. I did a lot of uh analytical golf course talking. Uh you decided to insult the great country of Canada for uh about 10 minutes on the show. So that’s my bottom part of the course. But yeah, um you’ve had about 48 hours to digest this golf course and things I said. Um where’s your head at this week as far as what you’re looking for? Uh is there anything that I said about maybe the golf course changes that is maybe swaying your opinion about who you want this week? Uh ask you about that because I couldn’t quite remember what we talked about. I wonder why. So I feel like did I know it changed but what changed about other than the other than the greens being a little bit newer? Well, so they’re they rebuilt them all. So that means they’re going to be mega firm. Uh that’s just what happens when you rebuild greens. They also changed the grass type from champion Bermuda to Tiff Eagle. So you know, look Scotty. Yeah, right. Scotty has won in a couple courses with Tiff Eagle. um that benefits him, but Tiff Eagle is a little grainier strain in Bermuda. So, you might want to lean a little more into the guys who are pretty good on Bermuda stats. Um yeah, but overall though, I mean, there’s not going to be probably that huge of a difference between the champion and the tip eagle. But something to notice like if you want to make a case for somebody and you say, “Look, like they won a PJ National, that’s Tiff Eagle Bermuda, or they want RSN, that’s Tiff Eagle, or Bay Hill.” Um stuff like that. Yeah. I mean, if you’re trying to build a case for somebody, you look at the tip eagle history, that would work, too. I I think for me, though, um the biggest thing that’s really swaying what I’m looking for this week is actually the course conditions and the weather conditions coming in. And I’ve been mentioning this I me I mentioned this on Sunday, and at the time, it looked like it was going to rain a lot this week and kind of negate this period of about two weeks of just no rain in the area. Um, after a pretty wet spring, by the way, they’re still above average in rain for the year, but it hasn’t rained there in 16 days. They dodged some rain today. Doesn’t look like there’s going to be rain in the forecast. So, when you take that combined with as long as they, and listen, this is the a TPC, they easily could water the fairways, but Zoya grass tends to absorb moisture pretty well, and you don’t have to water it a lot to keep it alive. So if they don’t do that, maybe the fairways are running pretty firm in combination with new greens, they haven’t been rained on in about 16 days. They’re already going to be firm to me. We already saw that the internment uh appro like hitting fairways is very important. I think it’s going to be way more important this week to do that because you can still fire at these pins. They’re the greens still aren’t all that complicated. If you’re from the fairway, it’s Zoya and it’s really nice to hit off it. But if you’re find yourself in the rough all day, I just think it’s going to be so hard to control spin. It’s going to be so hard to get it close. And maybe this that’s a different conversation for DFS, but we’re focusing just like on outrights, top 10s. Yep. And if you’re just in the rough all day, you’re probably not going to get close to the pin. You’re probably not going to score. So that’s kind of what I focus on this week. Guys are pretty good at golf courses with a big miss fairway penalty. guys who have been driving it pretty good and hitting mostly fairways. Uh, and then just like premium iron play who can really take advantage of it. Um, and that really kind of formulated my outcry card this week. Well, that makes me feel better about the fat guy, I bet. Anyway, okay. The fat guy, you bet. You’re now concerned about the heat at all? Yeah, man. Listen, as a heavier set fellow myself, uh listen, if it’s 110 degrees out and you’re playing a golf course, I mean, these guys, some of these boys are hefty and they’re walking with the bags and I mean, look, they’re obviously not in the gym like these other guys, right? So, I don’t know. It’s just something to think about. And I’ve golfed with some bigger boys and and sometimes they get tuckered out before 18. So, I don’t know. Just uh something to think about. Yeah. And look, I mean, we are we are seeing Lucas Glover, Mr. Swamp Ass overcome, all of that. and uh beat Patrick Hay, you know, Klay handed it to him at the end of the day. Uh but yeah, listen, like it’s you got a fat guy sweating profusely out there, there is a path of success. I mean, Seb Straa lost in a playoff and he’s a husky boy. So, it definitely can be done here. So, uh it is going to be an oven though this week. And unlike last week where they actually got unseasonably cooler temperatures in Carolina was like, you know, mid70s, pretty nice conditions to play golf, this week is going to top out at low to mid 90s. Um, exactly what you would expect in Memphis. Hellish weather. Hellish weather. Yeah. Humid, but it looks like the rain is going to stay away. And as long as they don’t water the golf course and try and manipulate it that way, this could be a spicy, entertaining tournament. Um, I think I’m gonna So you might have got me because you know nobody heard about I was bitching about the tournament pre-show, but now that you telling me we we dodged the rain, so I get because it’s been raining every [ __ ] single day like it normally does, but even more than normal in Florida and Georgia and I was just assuming everybody else was getting it as well. Um, yeah. So, so if they avoided that and we can actually get like a tougher course, that makes up for the shortened field for me. Yeah, it would be nice. But again, keep in mind this is a TPC. I know they like to cuddle these guys. Uh, who’s to say they just don’t take a water hose to everything? Uh, you had a [ __ ] stroke. You [ __ ] texted me when you found out they were watering it [ __ ] overnight after it had already gotten rain. It was a team. Oh, which tournament was that? I was so Yeah, that’s what I say. I can’t remember. I can’t remember. I just remember your that anger. There’s this seething anger. I just don’t understand it. Like why can’t you just let the course just be on its own? Like it already got rain. Why you watering it more? It’s unbelievable. Hate those guys sometimes. All right. Well, we don’t have our producer Cam to quiz us, but I do have the tip chart. So, normally I completely I don’t have I haven’t been in the Discord. I haven’t been on Twitter cuz I brought my daughter up with me this week. Um to hang out and keep me from going insane, living alone. Um Okay. So, we we’ve been watching movies and and we just started the um the Americas uh the Tom Hanks narrated thing. It’s [ __ ] awesome. Like I like I like I like nature stuff anyway. And uh yeah, it’s uh it’s really good. We’re like four or five episodes that we stay up late binge watching. We watched like four movies last night. So nice. What platform is that on? Peacock. So, uh Oh, I already cancelled Peacock. If you didn’t cancel it from the open. Yeah. Although I’ll have to bring it back for what is it? The Brazil game uh in about a month. Brazil. Oh, the football game. Yeah. Week one. Peacock. That’s the Peacock game in Brazil. Oh, man. I think it’s what? Chiefs Chargers, I think, is the game. Yeah, I think so. Yeah, that’s that’s just peachy. I hate this [ __ ] sending them all over the [ __ ] place. The Germany game was terrible. I The Germany game was terrible just because I’m sick of it going international. At least those fans were were good for whatever reasons they love. Don Denver. Um and they sing country road. No idea why that’s a thing in Germany. Um I told you that story about the bus full of Germans when we were in Turkey and it was it was so we were we were going you could take one bus ride down and Mamas Turkey. Their ship was pulled up next to our ship and we were playing war games and we went in for liberty and we all got on the bus and the German sailors all started singing country road take me home and we were all looking around at each other like what the [ __ ] is going on? Why do they love this song so much? And they sang it for us like at least three times on the way down to the city and then they all sang it at the stadium uh over in Germany when the Pats went over there which I found hilarious. So they love John Denver in Germany. They do. The way you introduced that though uh made me feel like I was Chaz Palieri listening to Verbal Kid uh riff through his [ __ ] at the suspects. You know, back when I was in a barbershack quartet in Skoi, Illinois now back when I was in a bus in Turkey with a bunch of Germans. Yeah, you set that up very well there. So, well, you and I have both had crap NFL performances in Germany. You had the ar I thought the worst quarterback performance with M. Jones in Germany only to be topped by Daniel Jones the next year. I don’t know that last game as a Giant. I was so happy they benched his ass after that. They should have left him there. They they should have left M. Jones, too. That pick was the legitimately the worst pick I ever seen. Like it was it was I was actually on the golf course and I saw and I texted you. I’m like, “What the [ __ ] was that?” Terrible. Who was he throwing to? I don’t know. Who cares? All right. Well, yeah. Who cares? Who cares about our crap teams? um until they play each other in December. We’ll have a live stream where that might be a spicy little show on Monday night. That’ll definitely be a spicy show. It will be. All right, tip chart. You got seven guys on this list. This is actually the first time I’m looking at it. Yeah. Interesting. I I guess it’s not all that surprising. I mean, this is you’re basically playing the hits for a lot of these guys at the St. Jude. So, all right, seven guys, kick it off. Let’s go. Who’s on there? Fleetwood. Tommy Fleetwood is not on the list. Interesting. I figured maybe everybody thinks Cam Young won last week, so why not him this week? Um, okay. Strike place fits Victor perfect and people love him no matter what, even though he completely screwed me on the one I done with Drew in a elevated event already this year. I’ll say Victor. Victor’s one. Victor is the number one most tipped golfer. Okay. This week. All right. By apparently a lot, by the way. Really? Yes. Like overwhelmingly. I don’t have the pie chart in front of me, but Brian Kersian was saying he’s like overwhelmingly like the biggest pick this week. I just lost the odds board. Where’d it go? All right. There we go. Um All right. So, if he’s at 35, we got seven. Well, Burns at 40. Burns is not on the list. Okay. Yeah, he’s kind of falling off a little bit. Yeah, I know. People just like him. Yeah, but he lost in the playoff a couple years ago, so might be. Yep. Bermita Burns. Um, I’m doing [ __ ] terrible. Come on. There’s some obvious names in here. When you say that, but now now I’m all in my brain. Is Is Levig on it? Man, that’s a that’s a that’s a Steve Shurmer performance if I’ve ever seen. I got the I got the number one and that’s it. All right, Russ is on it. All right, number two, Chris Kirk coming off a good finish at Windham. Playing well. Hit a hit well last week. I get it. I’m just not a Kirk guy, so I don’t even think I am. Number three, Windam Clark 50 to1. Okay. Playing better. Top 10 last year. Okay. Number four. Talk about miss [ __ ] fairway penalty. Yeah, but on some of these courses where he can club down, he’s he’s actually been all right. on short course like he’s been good to travelers like he obviously won Pebble like it doesn’t have as high a miss fairway penalty here but he can get it done at some of these places so I I I get it number four Russell Henley okay number five uh former winner here Daniel Burgerer this this Daniel Burger thing just makes me so irritated I don’t understand I heard people talk about him on the Ryder Cup team that is the dumbest [ __ ] I’ve ever [ __ ] heard that’s really dumb Dumb. That’s very dumb. I understand he’s a great ball striker, but that’s he hasn’t done anything this year. Nothing. Nothing at all. So, he’s he’s five. And by the way, when I say I hear people, it could have been like when I was randomly scrolling on Twitter. It could be. It probably was. Keep in mind, everybody likes everybody this week. So, you’ll think anybody’s chalk if you just scroll hard enough on Twitter. Uh, number six, Harris English, who Oh, no. should have won this a couple years ago. I think I was on Harris that tournament. I think you were too. Yeah, that was in the midst of a really No, you know what? I was on Bryson that week. And Bryson imploded on Sunday. That was in the midst of a really bad run. Similar to what I’m going through right now. So, yeah. I guess we’re coming full. If you could bet if you could if you bet eachways, you’d be [ __ ] you’d be fat like B. Yeah, I would be. But I like losing money on outright instead. and seven Xander Schoffley 16 to1. Okay. Okay. All right. So, that is the odds board. So, doesn’t matter because I think if you actually probably did a poll, I’m guessing most of the people this week are probably betting the without Scotty market. I would because everybody’s terrified of Scotty this week. Why wouldn’t you be? Are you? Yeah. Well, explain it. Why shouldn’t you be Why should you be as terrified as Scotty this week? I just feel like I’m the I feel like I’m the infant that like like got your nose. Where’d it go? Where’ the nose go? Oh, give it back. Got your nose. That’s what he keeps doing to my money every time. I’m like, oh no, the mic broke. Oh, disconnected. That was such a good That was such a good good introduction to Scotty right there. All right, while Kapper fixes his mic, I guess I’ll talk in that we once again come to a golf course that is a shorter golf course with that rewards hitting fairways with a big miss fairway penalty. It’s going to be super firm. So, that’s probably only going to play into his hands even more. You are also switching off champion Bermuda to Tiff Eagle where he’s won at least two tournaments. Uh Bay Hill is Tiff Eagle so I know he’s won some other overseated Tiff Eagle courses so that doesn’t technically count but he has some Tiff Eagle wins so chalk that up. just it’s just we talk ourselves into it every week and like this is and I get it like he’s not he’s only playing for money and don’t forget guys it’s a miserable job and he doesn’t even like to do it you know he just has to go out there and play so you know how motivated is he um you know because he only cares what’s for dinner after uh after going out and and getting to play a child’s game for millions of dollars. Um, yeah. I mean, I’m just sick of it. Like, I mean, accurate off the tea, deadly with the irons, Bermuda putter, head and shoulders, the best player on planet [ __ ] earth. So, yeah, I’m [ __ ] terrified of it. And if I’m not if I’m not taking that big of a haircut, like, why not just eliminate one of the variables? Golf is so [ __ ] variable anyway. We already have a shortened up field. So, eliminating one player out of 70 versus whatever 150. Andy’s the best player. I’ll take that for a haircut of five or seven points. Okay. All right. But you have that You don’t have that available to you, though, do you? Nope. Soon I will. Ne next next week. Next week I’ll be I’ll be Well, I won’t actually be in a state, but I’ll be close enough to a state that it’s legal where I can drive over the border, make my bets, and then come back. Okay, then let’s go through the gambit then. How would Boston Kapper get Scotty Shuffler on his market or on his betting card if he could this week? Would you take a minus 250 as a top 20? No, no, no, no. You’re not paying all that juice. I’m sorry. Not not top 20. Top 10. Minus 250. Oh, yeah. Wait, what was it? Minus two. What? Minus 250 for a top 10. Yeah. So, am I hurt? I heard 350 because that’s what the top 20 is. Minus 250 for a top 10. I’ve made bets like that before. You have usually when the United States is going against a rag tag bunch of internationals on home soil. Okay. All right. H how about this one? How about football bet minus 110 top five? Yeah, I would do that. Okay. So, I got burned pretty badly by this at Travelers when he finished T6 and for quading the opening hole on Saturday. Yeah. Otherwise, if you didn’t go through that trauma, that probably looks good for me. Um Yeah, that looks great for me. What did you say? It was one what? Minus 110 on um on book maker actually. So if I didn’t get bad burn at Travelers badly, I would probably go back to the well. Um I learned my lesson. I got caught with uh my hand on the uh the stove top right there. Not for me. But if that’s that’s probably a good bet um if you don’t have access to it without Scotty Market. For whatever reason, I just decided I’d rather get full odds on guys and complete a card of guys I want to bet instead of doing the without Scotty market. I haven’t had much success with the without Scotty market. Even though when I guessed when Scotty was going to win, it just didn’t hit for me. So, I’d rather just bet the guys I want to bet and hope it just works. Yeah, listen, I get it. It feels dirty. It really like I don’t know. I think it goes against especially somebody like me who doesn’t particularly give a [ __ ] about the numbers. Like it just feels dirty. It feels like it’s I’m going against my true self when I take it’s like a I’m a no hedge life guy and then I’m talking about a [ __ ] hedging with a no Scotty market. Yeah, I guess technically worked out for us when we bet Mimu Lee at Houston. We did we we weren’t scared of the without Scotty market that week and it worked out. That’s true. That’s true. We It both took 10 years off our lives. It really did. It was [ __ ] stressful between Scotty making a charge and Mimi hitting into the drink on 16. It was so bad. Yeah, it worked out though. I knew it was going to [ __ ] happen, too. So, we’re texting each other. He’s [ __ ] putting this SC. All right, so let’s let’s go down a tier then. Let’s start with Xander at 18 going all the way to like Bloodv. So, here here’s the guys like I the next tier down. You got Xander at about like 16 to 18 to one. You have Justin Thomas about like 25 to1. Tommy Fleetwood’s been bet down to like 25 to1. Matt Fitzpatrick’s hanging around like 30-ish. Russell Henley is around like 25 to1. Morawa 30 to1. Levig like 30 to1. Of that list there, who do you like the least? Oh yeah. Let’s spin it a different way. Always throw me the [ __ ] curveball as I’m trying to figure out who I like the most. Um, who do I like the least? I like with the price combined with everything. I like Xander the least. You like Xander the least. Interesting. Why is that? With the price. With the price. All right. It’s just it’s just a short price and he hasn’t been playing well up until these last two weeks and those were overseas. So, I’m good. It doesn’t have a great course history here. Um, it’s okay. Yeah, that’s what I said. I said not great. I didn’t say bad. Okay. Um, and just at 18 to1, I think I’d rather bet JT instead of [ __ ] Xander just based on the play this year and this course history and I get seven points. So, yeah. Oh, all right. I think we found our first St. Jude charity bet by the way. Loser versus JT. I’m worried about the off the off the tea penalty, though. That’s the thing. J JT I understand he’s like we we used this argument early in the year when I hit him out right at Harbortown is that like these are JT courses like the ones that are maybe a little bit more club down where you put the driver away and shorter courses like his travelers Harbortown I think the difference for me is that with Harbortown earlier in the year that was more less than Driver than what this is you guys are being a lot more aggressive here with Driver like you got to hit at least I think like eight or nine holes usually you got to pull drivers still still a fairly high number. So and his he has had no control with over his driver. Yeah. And he’s done it all he’s done it all with the putter this year too. It seems like Yeah. So but will you that’s I’m not taking I’m not I’m not taking that as a Oh come on. It’s for the kids. I don’t like it that much. I don’t like it that much. Okay. We can find another one. I we can I can guarantee we can find another one today. Okay. I just What about What about JT versus No, no, I don’t. Leave JT out of it. I don’t even like him. I just said I’d rather bet him than than Xander. I already didn’t like it that much. Like All right. Well, well, back to Xander. I considered I considered starting my card at like 181 with Xander. He’s playing better. Top 10 at the open. Driver is still little, it’s getting better, like better control, but it’s still a little wonky for me. So ultimately, and just because I feel like if it was softer conditions, like if it was maybe a little more like the fairways maybe were going to be a little softer, greens are going to be a little softer where maybe he can get away a little bit with hitting the fairways because you can stop the ball a little quicker on the greens. Um I would consider a Xander. Uh maybe lengthen the course a little more too. That would have put in his favor. But I’m kind of just going with guys that I feel like are driving the ball well, but more hitting, just better control than he’s shown. So, but the iron plays great though, and he actually is a better Bermuda putter than you might think. It’s mostly because he used to like Yeah, but but I I considered it. Plus, he lives in Florida now, so a lot of the Bermuda concerns that we used to have, I think, are gone. That’s fair. I mean, all these all the courses down here, dude. I haven’t swung a club in like [ __ ] four months, three months. It’s just too [ __ ] hot, man. Yeah. Well, my shoulder hurts too much, so I haven’t swung it either. Wish I had your problem. It’s just too hot, man. Okay. All right. Is this Is this Tommy Fleetwood’s week? No. No. No. What about top 10? Is this Tommy Fleetwood top 10 week? Um, accurate off the tea. Is he a good Bermuda putter? Plays good in Florida. Yeah, he’s okay. Yeah, I mean like API PJ National like good Bermuda results there. What’s the top 10 price? Uh, I got no dead heat at plus 170. Yeah, that’s not that’s not exciting. It’s not on Fleetwood. No, that’s no dead heat and and only a 70man field. Yeah, maybe. Okay. What about dead? He did two to one. I mean, yeah, it’s not moving needle for the Yeah. No. Okay. All right. I like Fleetwood a lot, but I just can’t I I think Young and Fleetwood backtoback weeks. Listen, I would love it just content. It would be great for the space. It would be great for the content, but is is the universe really going to be that serendipitous? You know what I mean? Like is it is it really gonna marry those [ __ ] two things together on backtoback weeks? Yeah. I mean, listen, you’re the loser, though. So, I feel like we said that too. What was the year the Browns won? Oh, Cleveland, the Cavs won something. Yeah, back in like what, 2016, I think. And there was like another loser team that won that year, too. Uh the Cubs. Oh, yeah. There you go. Yeah. Yeah. Theo Theo broke the curse. There you go. All right. I bet I bet Fleetwood positional. Would you bet him in the match up market like or are you just so are you just very lukewarm on like Fleetwood? I’m pretty lukewarm on Fleetwood. Okay. All right. Then who do you like the best out of these guys? Fitzpatrick, Henley, Morau, Levik. Oh, I thought I got Henley, too. Didn’t you say Henley? Yeah, I said. Yeah. Who do you like the best out of these? Fitzpatrick, you like Henley the best. Interesting. because you think he’s a loser. I do think he’s a loser, but I’m scared of JT’s squirrely off the [ __ ] tea, especially after hearing that. Listen, I’m scared of Scotty more than anything. Um I don’t Matt Fitzy has a good history here as a kid. Lig still does too many dumb Did he go to Do you go to Graceand? Yes, maybe. Yeah. Okay. Um uh Levig just does too many dumb things still for me. And like I said, I was good. But I once once I once we hit him this year, I was good to lay off him for the rest of the year. Um Okay. I mean, he always shows up at big boy tournaments and I mean, he already wasn’t a signature event where he took Morau’s lunch money. Uh Henley. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, Morawa kind of shot us up in the foot on 16 and then He buried a bomb. Uh take it away from him. But so he took less money. But I was thinking about this too, like we have the 18th hole and that is a great hole for somebody to give it away to somebody. We talked about a little bit in 2010 where that happened. Uh can’t like gave it away to Lucas Glover on 18 or god forbid makes it playoff. We saw Septroka give it to Will Torres at 11. There’s plenty of opportunities for somebody to get I was happy with that one though because I think didn’t we all have [ __ ] Zorus tickets at that point? Yeah, we did. I I was even on my sobatical and even I hit Zelator. I think that was the most popular win. It’s it’s it’s sad in hindsight because his approval rating was so high in 2022 and then you know what happened the next week, right? Was that when he [ __ ] his hand up? No, that’s when he screwed his back up for the first time. Oh yeah, that’s right. Took swing and he had to get carded off and people were like, “Oh, what does Paulie say about backs, Steve?” What does Paulie say about backs? want to disable backs. Nobody knows [ __ ] about backs. There you go. There you go. All right. Well, here’s the thing. All right. Of those four, I’ve actually bet three of them aren’t right because they are all 30ish to one. All right. I’m okay. I’m listening. All right. The one I did not bet. I And maybe this is sneaky just because of I’m looking for super accurate great iron player, but I something wrong. Something’s wrong with Morawa that I I don’t want anything to do with him. Did he change caddies again? He’s a mental case, dude. Mental case. He is with I forget who’s Catty’s with. Um but yes, change caddies again cuz it’s definitely not him. It’s definitely not him having to get more speed. He doesn’t have to change. Everything else has to change. Everybody knows a person like this. Like, okay, bud. You’re not the problem. We get it. every everything else is. At some point in your life when you keep running into [ __ ] and you’re telling everybody, hey, you know, that guy’s a real [ __ ] That guy’s a real [ __ ] Sooner or later, you got to look in the mirror and realize you’re the [ __ ] Like, it’s it’s not everybody else’s problem. It’s your own. Yeah. I it this is not a DFS show, but Morawa potentially could be a good DFS leverage play this week. Like his ownership is gonna be dirt low. He’s got the attributes of what you’re looking for. TPC course. He has won on Tiff Eagle before at concession and that’s been the big problem. Like what if that just gets better? Like I went like obviously I don’t really think of Collins as a great Bermuda putter but like Bay Hill was Tiff Eagle almost won that one a concession. So like concession back in the [ __ ] rotation. Well, we talked about this. I think you don’t remember. The problem is there’s no way to get people out on the course there because there’s a bunch of snakes and alligators that would eat people. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe that’s why look that look he won that tournament. There was no people around just like co. Exactly. His best golf was when people strengthens my argument. All right. So the guy So I bet I bet Fitzpatrick this week. Uh um Pepe Sylvia nailed it this week. Uh yes, I am with Fitzpatrick. I see no reason to get off him. And I bet him last week at 22 to1. Like look, he got off to a terrible start with a double bogey on his opening hole. Windham made it on the weekend, but top 10 on the week. Iron play still looks pretty good. Great Bermuda putter, accuracy with the golf ball, good on some of these comp courses. Like, why wouldn’t I just continue to keep Ryan with Fitzpatrick at 30 to one? So, bet him. Um, I bet Russell Henley because like if I if I think this is going to be mega mega important to keep the ball in the fairway and iron play just really gets rewarded like Henley right there. Um, I understand that he has trouble closing out golf tournaments. Um, but this is a golf course. Yeah, he broke the seal and this is a golf course as I mentioned in Connecticut that can definitely someone can gift wrap one to you which maybe is actually the case for Tommy this week. Um although he might be the one doing the gift wrapping for people. Um but I bet Henley at 30 to1 as well. And I actually I I bet Levig this week he’s starting to play better. Top 10 at Scottish, top 25 finish at the open. Driver is starting to get a little more consistent. The iron play has been really good. Uh he does have a win on Tiff Eagle when he won the RSM. So I know he can do it on this surface. The around the green game definitely is a big problem, but I think with the switch to uh Zoya, at least with the short grass around the green, um I think that might be a net positive for him. So um I bet those three uh to start the card. Uh, it’s taking a risk with Scotty, but I like what those three come to the table with as far as course fit, how they’re hitting their irons. They have demonstrated pretty good control with their driver lately. Um, and they’ve had very success on Bermuda. So, yeah, yeah, fine with that. I don’t hate like I don’t I don’t like Fitz, but like I think it makes sense like riding this hot play. Like I would have played him in one and done last week, but I knew he was going to be super popular. Yep. Before we move on though, um the absence of Rory is a big topic. Do you care if Rory’s not here or not? Because some people appear really do. Why? Well, because it’s they they look at him as like the creator of a lot of these signature events and really had an influence of how like the FedEx class that scumbag Monahan was the creator of all these things because he got caught with his pants down by uh the Saudis and Rory was the scapegoat. You know me, I railed against it because I thought it. And and after seeing how they just used him as a mouthpiece, like whatever you set this up this way, I don’t have to show up in [ __ ] Tennessee. He’s got like what I say a billion dollars in the [ __ ] bank account. What’s another [ __ ] five million to him? He doesn’t give a [ __ ] Like he’ll come next week. And the FedEx Cup doesn’t matter. Like the players tell you it doesn’t matter. Like the fans tell you it doesn’t matter. Like it’s one of those weird things where it shouldn’t even be called the playoffs. like just should just be like I don’t know what like what do they call it back in the day like the Winston Cup like I don’t know how about just say a massive wealth distribution there you go is that it rich guys getting richer how’s that bas what it is and we get to and we get to hear FedEx’s CEO for 38 minutes on the well I think he he died recently so uh I don’t know if it was the CEO but some big either the founder or the chairman he died recently So, um, you expect a lot of him this week. A lot of inmemory of, uh, whoever that guy was. So, uh, rest in peace, I guess. Rest in peace. Yes. Yeah. So, uh, I mean, you took the words right out of my mouth. Like, if you don’t like it, how about you don’t create a playoff format where that allows guys to skip your event and be perfectly fine. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I don’t I’ll I’ll save how I want to fix the FedEx Cup to the Tour Championship. Um, it’s evolved over the years. Um, I’ve also accepted they will not do match play. So, we need to come up with a different solution. But, there absolutely needs to be some sort of penalty for missing these events. Like, it should be like every single other playoff where if you don’t show up, you’re done. You don’t advance. Hey, you don’t advance, you’re done. Yeah. Exactly. And I think you’re right. Call it something different. Like have like a regular season like title and then call this like a something else. Yeah. Yeah, whatever. All right. Nobody cares enough because the venues suck and the trophy sucks. You know what I mean? Like think about the like history is what matters with a lot of these playoff things, right? Like like the Stanley Cup, right? The most coveted trophy in sports, right? Uh the World Series trophy kind of blows, right? But at least it’s it’s exciting. It’s got years and years and years and years of history. It’s recognizable. Um, the FedEx Cup, it looks like something I would order if my kids won the [ __ ] Little League championship and I could just get it made quickly down in the store. Yeah, it definitely looks like a fantasy football title that someone just ordered online. Yeah, like Yeah, like the whole the whole thing stinks. The whole thing. Hopefully, who who’sever this new shill coming in is from the NFL. Hopefully, he does a good job. Okay. All right. Let’s move on. 35 to like 50 to1. A lot of big names. A lot of names just jammed down in this range here. Um, did you see the action that Aaron Ry got this week on the odds board? No, nor do I care. Okay. So, he started the week at about 70 to1 on some books. He is now down to some books 30 to1. 35 to1, man. So, to me, and look, I get I know I know a lot of Listen, I know a lot of sharp guys watch the bookmaker one to see who gets nuked because the sharp people put money on it and bookmaker lets them put money down on it. I get it. But at the same point, it’s about their handle and their risk. A sports book is no different than a financial firm as far as what they want to expose themselves to and what they know they can handle. And if they are taking on too much money and the quant in the basement is telling them that, hey, this is XYZ chance of this happening, just move the number. It’s not worth the risk. Like that’s it. Like I that’s that’s how I that’s how I think it goes. Like I just think it’s just a it’s just a risk aversion. Like it’s it’s not about the casinos don’t take [ __ ] casinos. The sports books don’t take [ __ ] stands on on golfers. They just don’t. Okay. So let me ask a question though. On Sunday would completely in the bag capper bet 35 to1 Aaron Ry this week? No. Never. No. How how many drinks would it take for you to bet? Wait, are you guaranteed five to one? Aaron Ry was a good idea this week. I mean, I would have to be black out and hit the wrong golfer. Look, I understand why he got steamed this week, especially if you if you are in tune with how we think the course conditions are going to be. Just mega firm Megan News like I just don’t think he’s going to win a tournament like this like with these guys. He’s not going to do it. Yeah. I mean, he’s not going to have Billy Hoe coaching him up on [ __ ] 17 and 18 to go get it done. Yeah. Like, do you think Scotty Shuffler is going to quad a hole? I mean, he Well, technically he did the Travelers, but true. Um, I don’t know if anybody’s gonna be handing him a win. Um, you know, towards the top there. So, I mean, look, I I like the course profile fit. If you got 70 to1, hey, great CLV. Congratulations. Looks great. I’d be I’d be fine with 70, not 35. No [ __ ] show. Gray on the fridge. Um, I’m good. I consider Corey Connors this week. Yeah, I feel I feel kind of accuracy merchant been sniffing around it all year. Yeah, I think the switch is Tiff Eagle might help him too. Like he’s got good finishes at RSM, good finishes at Bay Hill. Like he hasn’t, I don’t think, putt very well at Southwind, but switching to Tiff Eagle, he’s got a little more success on that type of Bumita. didn’t get there. But again, like makes sense. Like, you know, I’ve seen a lot of these firm Bay Hills where he’s done really well or these firm like I know it’s a completely different golf course, but like firm conditions like Augusta Ashton when he was playing really firm, like he’s done very well. So, I know he can do it in those types of turf conditions. I know he can do it on similar golf courses as this place. Hasn’t really done it here. I think mostly because of the putter accuracy, great from 100 to 200 yards. Seems like he’s over the wrist injury a little bit. Yeah. Didn’t get there because I bet another guy at 35 to1. Okay. So, what you got two guys at 30 and one guy at 35. Yeah, it actually worked out. It hit my It hit my uh 7x for ROI. Okay. So, um it’s most tipped, but I bet Victor Havlin at 351. Yeah, I think really good number. Playing good. Now apparently though somebody went back and tracked every time he has been on the tip chart the last like three years and it’s very ugly uh for Holl I think his feel that’s happen stance. Yeah it is. And we’ve seen enough guys in the tip chart this this year to end up winning. So it is funny though. How far back did it go? How many times he been I don’t know. I just saw a list. It was like 10 tournaments and like his best result was like 12th at like a I think a like a I know he was I know he was on the most tip chart when that [ __ ] pulled out of uh Travelers. Yeah, but again driver has been he’s not gaining a ton of strokes off the tea, but the control with the driver hitting fairways has started to come back a little bit with him. So that’s a good sign. The iron play has been really good. like like Scott like Scotty level like good. Like over his last 16 rounds, Scotty Shuffer is getting 1.6 strokes per round with his irons. Uh Hoblin’s getting 1.57. So sexy. Last 12 months if you did like like how I like looking at the strokes gain is like I like like turning into like per round instead of per shot. So, if Havlin just had one round of shots between 100 yards over last year, he’d be getting a full stroke on the field. So, great from that range. Um, I’ve seen him do okay on Bermuda surfaces before. Obviously, he’s got a good finish here. And again, kind of like with Levig, I think maybe the switch to Zoya for some of the collars and approaches around the green might help him instead of chip off type Bermuda. Yeah. No, I listen, I I get why he’s most tipped. Like I understand it like Yep. So those so those are the four outrightes I had. Fitz at 30. Hen actually let me where are the official numbers? Fit Henley at 30, Lee at 30, Fitz at 33. He got steamed down a little bit. Um Hoblin at 35. Uh Pepe Sylvia say top 10 on Hobin plus 300 bet online. I like that. I like that one. It’s a good number. That’s a that’s something that makes it move a little. Yeah, a little bit. So maybe uh the seminals will have it at plus 150 for you. Yeah, it’ll be a negative in front of that. Um, all right. Damn. All right. I mean, I only So, I haven’t bet I didn’t bet anybody under 45. I just bet two guys at 45. Okay. So, you got some room then. So, I made I made some cases guys then. I think I think I’m going to join you on Henley. Okay. Oh, that you never would do that. I know. Turn over a new leaf, sir. I know. I know. There was a sale at Kohl’s. I know he’s going to look sharp. Um, that’s true. We uh he turned in his Kohl’s bucks and got a new [ __ ] pair of khakis. Um yeah, I think uh I think out of everybody you mentioned and by the way I want to let you know I am proud of you for not betting Canada at 35. Thank you. I appreciate that. I I know everybody was waiting with baited breath. When you said 35 I was like here it comes. I know. There’s a reason why I set it up that way because I I wanted the audience to have think like oh no did he do it again? Oh yeah. Um I just I don’t want to get I don’t want to get there on fits and I just there is like when I I just don’t want to go against what I said like I I was good one bloodvig he hasn’t shown me enough where he’s not making little dumb mistakes here and there. Um but yeah I think Russell Henley makes all the sense in the world um for a tournament like this. He really does. Um okay stupid as that sounds. Um, so I think I think I can join you on him if Victor wasn’t most tipped. I’d probably join you on him. Oh, you’re so hung up on that then. Yeah, maybe. I don’t know. I mean, listen, I got room. I don’t like I don’t like any like I’m scared of Scotty. I bet fat guy Seb Stroer at 45 when it opened. Um, his iron game has been incredible this year. I’m just What’s his Bermuda putting? Who? Who? I’m sorry. Sorry. I was I was looking at Straa Batman. Well, I mean, he did well here in a playoff. Yeah. So, that was that was about five years ago at this point. Um I mean, he did well at Bay Hill earlier this year. That was Tiff Eagle. What was Truce? Truce is Ben Grass. Ben Grass. So, um let’s see. Yeah, I listen I just think I mean his iron play was ridiculous this year and uh he’s already won a event like this. I just thought the number was fair at 40 to1. He’s not coming in in the best form, but it ain’t the [ __ ] worst form either. Um and I just thought 45 was a [ __ ] fair number. Okay, to go back to the Bermuda history, gained 1.7 per round at API, which is uh gained a little bit at Sony, a little different strain in Bermuda there, but he gained a little bit there. gain a little bit at Sentry. That’s Tiff Eagle, so that’s good. Gained at RSM just despite getting cut. Um, so that’s another Tiff Eagle example there. Gained a little bit at the Tour Championship, which was switched to T Eagle last year, so the guy might be actually decent on Tiff Eagle. Yeah. And I just think I thought the number was fair. Um, and he’s a fun guy that I can root for. Um, okay. So, yeah, I thought I thought the number was fair there. And then, uh, same exact number. I got uh I got Goober Harris English uh 45. I’m I’m actually jealous of that. Yeah. And so I just I mean look, he’s playing really good. He’s played well in the in the uh events. Let’s talk about him being on the Ryder Cup, which he should be, by the way, which I’m sure I drunkenly spouted about uh on Sunday. Isn’t he in on points? I think he’s I think he’s I think he’s eight or seven. Just right outside of it. He finished runner up in two majors. How was he on the outside? I I think I think I think he’s right on the outside. Like he’s gonna make the cop. He’s gonna he’s gonna make it. Um like feel like he’s gearing up for that. I can 100% him seeing him. I could see him winning this [ __ ] tournament. 100%. I can take the 3-wood off the box, nice iron approach, put it around, and yeah, I mean, look, he’s had a he’s had a great year. Um and I thought the number was fair. Uh, and if it’s playing firm, makes me a little more nervous, but he’s played tough fields really well this year. So, uh, 45 was fine for me with Goober. Okay. Why your boy Ben Griffin? So, I was happy with what he did for the most part. Like, my theory was right. Right. Like, I feel like everybody’s off of nobody was talking about him. He’s still a good golfer. Like, I don’t know why anybody everybody was ignoring him. Um, and it looked like he was really making a run on Saturday and then he kind of [ __ ] up the Pack nine. Um, but he still ended up top 10. I’m good here. Okay. I just Yeah, I’m good here. I’m good here. Okay. I considered it, but I just I just wanted to build I mean like if I’m thinking if I’m not taking on Scotty in the without Scotty market Yeah. then like I’m not Griffin. Who else would you consider down the board? Like in in reality for a [ __ ] in reality consider Shane Lowry [ __ ] sucks here and he’s a fat guy in the Heat. No thank you. Like I already got one fat guy on the He’s not that awful here. Oh, I think is he bad here? No, he’s Let me Let me look it up. Like at least the raw number I have it might be just kind of like a lot of me mid finishes. Oh, yeah. No, he’s not bad. T23 T6 last two years. Yeah. Yeah, that’s that’s fine. So, like I I think he might be actually like, again, we’re not a DFS show, but DFS show. Yeah. Underpriced. 7,400. Yeah, that’s that’s a good price for underpriced. Although, if he’s 7,400, he’s probably gonna be chalk. Um, be surprised. It’s a It’s Shane’s not that popular. Like, uh, yeah, but if we’re talking about like we like guys like Henley, we like guys like Corey Connors, we like guys like Aaron Ry, like Lowry would be right in that vein. Yeah. Um yeah, I mean Iron Play has tailed off a little bit over the last few tournaments, but he’s had a couple weeks off and a lot can change. He hits a lot of fairways good on these types of tracks. So I just can’t watch that [ __ ] put anymore with when I have money on him. I can’t do it. It’s it’s the worst. Okay. Um Danny McCathy’s not going to get his first win in his savior’s event. Although that would be [ __ ] hilarious. Um, what about JJ Spawn this week? Can I make the case? Yeah, you can absolutely make the case. You know me, I like JJ. Okay, so high rate of hitting fairways, really good between 100 and 200 yards. Um, putter has been better this year. Now, his overall Bermuda stats have not been all that good, but I think the TIFF Eagle switch might help him because he putt really well at Cognizant. uh putt pretty well at uh RSM last year. So, you know, T-24 last year at Southwind. Kind of like him this week as far as like what he’s been doing. Like it’s it’s feelings I’ve had about Spawn where maybe the course history isn’t quite there, but he’s got what the attributes for it. So, I kind of like Spawn this week. I took him top 20. um at plus 150 this week. Oh, I like that. Yeah. So, I do like him this week. Um else, what if what is what if Chris Gddard is just like top 10 player in the world now and we’re strange. Listen, stranger things have happened. He was Well, he was he was highly thought of coming out, right? Yeah, he was. I mean, I remember when he first broke out, um, we were all betting him at like 30 to one in a John Deere. Yeah, I remember that. He missed the cut. Yeah. Um, look, I mean, like, if Windham Clark can do well here, like a got her up. I just feel like How old is he? How old How old’s got her up? Oh, he’s young guy. He’s 26 years old. Okay. Well, he’s not that young. Okay. But I just feel like I don’t know. Maybe he’s he’s going to press a little bit. because he’s right on that RDER Cup conversation. He’s not quite the course fit of the guy that we’re talking about and maybe he tries to do a little too much to cement the RDER Cup spot and it backfires. Okay. All right. Let’s uh let’s move past. Let’s go longer shots like over 60 to1. So, have you bet anybody in this range? No, man. I told you I’ve made those two 45 bets this week. Those two 45s to one. Okay. All right. Who do you like as like a long shot for this week? So, I was looking at that earlier. Like, we also need to start making charity bets. So, let’s start picking a few of these bombs. All right. Fine, fine, fine. Um, who did Do you hate anybody in the [ __ ] 40 to 60 range? Do I hate anybody in the 40 60 range? You know what? I didn’t like what I saw from Bobby Mack last week. Yeah, I’m I’m I don’t know. I hate Danny Burger. Do you like Burger this week? I mean, I’ll take him in a matchup if you want. Guess who? Okay, let’s throw it out there. Uh, how about Dana Burgerer against Cam Young? Who else do I have the option of picking? Okay. How about Dana Burger against Chris Garup? Jesus Christ. Okay. All right. I’ll do it for a charity bet. [ __ ] it. Burger versus Gotup. Yeah, I’ll do it for charity. All right. Charity bet. Burger versus Chris. Got her up. Yeah. Yeah. Put that on there. Um, you I think won. Yeah. No, you didn’t win the threeon one. I did. So, beat you there. So, we are actually, if we tally it up. You were up seven and a half to six. So, I have some making up to do. We got We got time to We don’t have the four. We got three tournaments to do it. Okay. I will take Jana Burger. You will take Chris Gard up. Okay. All right. So, so what? So, some longer shots like guys that kind of fit what we’re talking about. Se Kim TPC. God, he he know he no showed last week, though. I just I’m telling you, man. I I don’t know what the [ __ ] has been. Yeah. I He hasn’t He hasn’t been right since a minute. Sam Stevens doesn’t really fit. Grman n Gerard maybe Novak like there’s nobody I really [ __ ] What about Bridgemond? Our guy Bridgemond 20. You love that [ __ ] merchant. You just you love that dude. I’ll take him in a matchup. I think who you going to take him? All right, hold on. Let’s Let’s find some matchups. Okay, Bridgemond. So, you got Bud Collie. Actually, you know, I don’t I don’t hate Bud Collie this week. All right, hold on. All right. Bridgeman matchups. Okay. Um I’m not taking I’m not taking uh Pocket this week. Although I heard I heard somebody make an interesting case for Pock Eater is that like if you could club down, he could do it. But not around the Green Game. So [ __ ] gross. Yeah. All right. I’ll go How about I go back to a guy who burned me bad last week. Um How about I’ll take Nikico Echavaria. Yeah, okay. That’s another one. N I will take Nikicovaria who absolutely murdered my soul. Yeah. On Sunday. What did he do on Sunday? He just [ __ ] imploded. Oh, he was he went uh he rounded the turn and went double bogey double double and that was it because I you know me. So I was I was in the bag at that point um out at the cagaba. So I had them put it on at the cagaba. It was that and the elbow room right next to each other. Um and so I I lost track of Nico. Okay. Um who else fits down here? [ __ ] I mean Ash was completely gutless last week, but he definitely fits someone who just the iron plays really good. Hits a lot of fairways. Good like good result here. 60 to1 60 right. I don’t hate I don’t hate Kittyama this week to be honest. I’m I’m just I’m never in Kittyama. I mean I mean just for iron play alone he’s got a just get him wrong. He’s just one of those guys that I get wrong. I don’t hate him this week as far as like if you want to go off the board like notice. No, I I can’t think of many of these types of tracks he’s done all right in. That’s fair. I guess him out on him. People like Nick Taylor this week. I get it. Well, thank you. Um I know he’s won Sanderson before for like a Bermuda result. I know he’s won Sony. Hasn’t really been all that good here. No, he bankrupted me on the the British Open, I think. So, but I get it. accurate guy who’s a good like iron player, a good mid-air player. So, I get it. Mackenzie 150. Who? Mackenzie Hughes 150. I don’t know what the hell he’s been doing lately. Nothing good. Do you want to take a match up with that? No, it’s a that’s a random one. He just stuck out to me. Remember remember I was betting on the false swing and he kept imploding on Sundays and I was like, I [ __ ] hate this Mackenzie Hughes. That’s true. Um um what about Brian Harmon? Yeah, he fits unfortunately. Yeah, good result at the open. A lot of fairways that could work. Um I took a top I took a top 20 and Chris I went back to Chris Kirk for a top 20 this week. Okay, I get it. I know uninspiring but that kind of an uninspiring top 20 kind of fits for Chris Kirk just come out. Yeah, look at that fee now at 120. That’s almost worth a sprinkle just because. Is it? No, but maybe when I press you on you’re like, nah. It’s just weird to see him down here. Like I mean it’s I mean it’s it’s it’s warranted. It’s No, I didn’t say it wasn’t warranted. I just said it’s weird. Well, I mean the guy is gonna be 36 soon. He’s not a spring chicken anymore. He’s got one top 10 this year. Yep. Although, you know, I mean, in hindsight, I think we both didn’t we both bet him at Pinehurst and he like he was in the mix at the US Open and then it’s been nothing since basically. Yeah. So, um I don’t mind Ameliano Grio this week again at much lower price and we still fitting everything you want to look for this week as far as like decent course history. A lot of fairways, good iron player. Yeah. So, that could work. I’m Bud Collie. I like him. He’s fun. He’s fun. He’s He’s a fun guy to root for. Yeah. Maybe bounce back for Bud Collie this week. I love Bud Collie’s story. So, I’m I’m 100% behind that. Okay. Um, Brian Campbell. I So, I just I don’t think that’s bad. I like He might be my He might be He’s either going to be my gummy play or a top 20 play. I think that’s too obvious with gummy play though. Like, you got to go That’s fair. Like for to really wow the the uh the ISN, you got he’s got to be bottom five on the [ __ ] board, you gotta go like I don’t know. You should just go M Hughes just see what people uh react to. Do Yeah, I don’t know. I’ll have to look at it first. Okay. All right. That I mean you basically covered everybody because it’s between me, you, and Rishi. I think pretty much it is. I got to fill out my picks. Um, the problem is we’ll have to figure out something else for the loser to do because I’m basically shut down for golf the rest of the year. So, well, that’s if you win.
