A SIX INCOME OVER PAR 76 HE WAS DEFINE APTS HE CAN CHEAP IT UP THERE WERE A LOT OF UP FORCED ERRORS AND HE WAS COP FIT AGAIN WHAT WERE YOUR THOUGHTS? >> David: THERE ARE BEHAVIOR, ANTHONY KIM IS USED TO THEM SINCE HIS PEAK 15 YEARS AGO, HE

WAS SO FLAMBOYANT WITH SUCH A SWAGGER, PEOPLE THAT LIKED HIM. PEOPLE THAT DIDN’T LIKE HIM. WE SEE HIM HERE MAKE HIS ONLY BIRDIE OF THE DAY YESTERDAY. HE SHOWED GOOD SHOTS HERE AND THERE HE JUST NEEDS TO GET SOME GOLF UNDER HIS BELT, ARLO, BEFORE WE CAN REALLY MAKE A

BOGEYS HIS FIRST HOLE AND STILL CARD A 63. THE CONDITIONS TODAY ARE THEY CONDUCIVE FOR BIG HITTERS TO GO LOW? RE THEY ARE. THE WIND IS NOT BLOWING THE WAY WE ARE USED TO SEEING IT HERE AT ROYAL GREENS THE FARTHER YOU HIT IT THE TIGHTER THE GOLF COURSE GETS.

BUT THE ROUGH IS NOT SO SERIOUS, I WOULD EXPECT THE GUYS THAT VOMIT, LIKE RAHM AND DeCHAMBEAU, YOU KNOW, TO FORM AHEAD. >> Arlo: RAHM WAS BOGEY FREE. 8 BIRDIES. DAIS I MENTIONED A DOUBLE BOGEY AT PAR 3 TO START. HE WAS MAGNIFICENT THEREAFTER. THAT WAS BIRDIE AT 17, HE

BIRDIED HIS FINAL FOUR HOLES AS WELL AS WE LOOK AT THE PYLON HERE IT’S ABSOLUTE SIGH STACKED FILLED WITH A 65 YESTERDAY WE GOT A TALK ABOUT ADRIEN MERONK, 62 FROM THE POLE IS MAGNIFICENT. >> David: IT WAS THE COUNTRY WITH ONLY 26 COURSES OTHERS I NATIONAL HERO, REALLY SOUND

>> Jerry: THAT’S NICE. >> Arlo: OF THE PREGAME SHOW. >> Jerry: THAT’S FUN TO DO. YOU ARE RIGHT, THOUGH, THE WEATHER HERE IS SO PREDICTABLE IT’S SUNNY AND WARM OTHER TIMES. YEAR IT’S SUNNY AND HOT. >> Arlo: INDEED. >> Jerry: DAVID, YOU ARE RIGHT IS WIND IS NOT AS HIGH AS WE

HAVE SEEN PLAYING IN THE FALL NORMALLY, BUT STILL STRONG. AND THE OVER SEEDED RYE IS MORE ROUGH BUT MORE PLAYABLE THAN THE OLT ROUGH. >> David: IT IS. IT’S STIFFER AND HOLDS THE WEIGHT OF THE BALL BETTER. WE SAW GUYS HITTING IT MILES, HITTING IT OFFLINE YESTERDAY. IT DIDN’T REALLY SEEM LIKE THAT

MUCH OF A PENALTY. >> Jerry: YEAH. >> Arlo: REALLY IS A GORGEOUS SIGHT. AND IT’S A COURSE AND CONDITIONS CONDUCIVE TO LOW SCORING AS WE SAW FROM THE LIKES OF JOHN RAHM AND RAID ENEMA ADRIEN MER. JOHN RAHM WAS BRILLIANT YESTERDAY AND HE WAS DELIGHTED WITH HIS ROUND.

IS HE’S IN CONTENTION ONCE AGAIN, ONE OF ONLY TWO MEMBERS ALONG SIDE DUSTIN JOHNSON WITH CONSECUTIVE TOP 10 FINISHES, HIS FIRST TWO LIV EVENTS OF COURSE, D.J. MANAGEED TO GRAB THE WIN IN VEGAS LAST WEEK. RAHM DISAPPOINTED IN BOGEYING HIS LAST TWO HOLES IN MEXICO TO MISS THAT PLAYOFF.

BUT 8 ON THE PAR 60 WOULD IS A FINE START. 66 FOR D.J. YESTERDAY. SO HE’S THERE AND THEREABOUTS, AS HE ALWAYS IS. JUST LESS THAN 7 1/2 MINUTES TO GO UNTIL THE SHOTGUN START HERE AT ROYAL GREENS IN SAUDI ARABIA. AND JERRY FOLTZ HAS JOINED US

FRESH FROM CLUB 54, THE LIV GOLF PREGAME SHOW. FOR THOSE IN THE KNOW WITH CHRIS CHRISTIAN CROSBY AND RACHEL DRUMMOND WHICH IS A LOT OF FUN, CATCH THE SHOW IF YOU CAN AND THERE IS A POST GAME SHOW TO FOLLOW AS WELL. ANTHONY KIM NEEDS TO GET YOUR IMPRESSIONS OF HIS FIRST ROUND

AS I MENTION TODAY DAVID. HE SEEMED OKAY WITH IT. 76 IS A NUMBER THAT HE PERHAPS DIDN’T WANT YESTERDAY. BUT HE THINKS HE CAN IRON THINGS OUT AND HE FEELS PRETTY CONFIDENT. WHAT DO YOU THINK? >> Jerry: IRONING THINGS OUT WITH WILL TAKE QUITE A WHILE. QUITE A WHILE.

HE’S 12 YEARS AWAY FROM THE GAME THE MAYBE 10 OR 11 OF THOSE YEARS NOT EVENING THINKING ABOUT GOLF TO BE QUITE HONEST OTHER THAN IN THE BACK OF HIS MIND, THAT WAS A HUGE STEP HE TOOK YESTERDAY WHEN HE RETURNED TO THE GAME LIKE DAVID SAID.

TIME WILL TELL IF IT WAS THE RIGHT DECISION. I PERSONALLY DON’T THINK IT COULD EVER BE VIEWED AS THE WRONG DECISION. EVEN THE STEP KICKS OUT E HATERS GAVE HIM LOVE KNOWING WHAT’ ENORMOUS FEAT IT WAS TO EVEN SHOOT 76 AFTER REALLY HAVING A FOREIGN OBJECT IN YOUR

HAND FOR THE FINALS IN 12 YEARS. >> David: YOU ARE RIGHT, IT IS A FOREIGN OBJECT. YOU TRY TO THINK BACK TO OTHER PLAYERS AND OTHER SPORTS THAT MIGHT, HAVE YOU KNOW, ATTEMPTED A SIMILAR FATE AND THEY ARE NOT JUST FEW AND FAR BETWEEN, THEY ARE NOT THERE. TIGER COMING BACK, YOU COULD

SAY. BUT THAT WAS FROM INJURY. AND — >> Jerry: HE CAME BACK AND HAD THE CHIPPING YIPS. >> David: EXACTLY, YEAH. >> Jerry: YOU KNOW HOW TOUGH IT CAN BE. >> David: YEAH. >> Arlo: THERE IS ANTHONY KIM GETTING READY FOR SUPER SATURDAY HERE IN JEDDAH. JOHN RAHM IT SEEMS TO ME

YESTERDAY, HIS ATTITUDE WAS LOOPING LOOKING I GONE CLOSE I HAVE HAD ENOUGH THE LOOKING ANOTHER OTHER PEOPLE LIFTING TROPHIES AND STRIKING IT YESTERDAY, WEEP HE, DAVE? >> David: HE REALLY WAS. LOOKED SOLE IMPRESSIVE ALL PARTS OF HIS GAME. IF YOU LOOK AT THE LEADER BOARD WE HAVE OOSTHUIZEN, MICKELSON

YOU CAN HATTON, GOOCH. HATTON GAVE ME THE DIRTY LOOK AT THE TABLE LAST NIGHT. >> Jerry: HE DID. >> David: I THINK IT’S BECAUSE I CALLED HIM MR. ANGRY. [SPEAKING AT THE SAME TIME] >> David: YEAH. I LOVED THE WAY THAT PLAYS. YOU KNOW, THESE GUYS ARE ONLY TWO OR THREE SHOTS BEHIND.

IT’S REALLY A FANTASTIC FIELD THAT WE’VE GOT HERE. AND SO MANY GREAT PLAYERS AND SUCH, YOU KNOW, GREAT FORM. >> Arlo: WE MENTIONED ADRIEN MERONK AT THE TOP OF THE SHOW. THE REIGNING DP WORLD TOUR PLAYER OF THE YEAR, WHAT A ROUND FOR HIM YESTERDAY. HIS 62. FIVE BIRDIES IN THE LAST SEVEN

HOLES. THINK SAY CLEEKS GC ON “X” GREAT START ADRIAN MERONK IN JEDDAH IT SURE WAS AND HE’S ON THE RANGE WITH SUE AN HANG. >> Su-Ann: WE HAVE A STACKED PYLON HEAD INTO DAY TWO RIGHT HERE IN JEDDAH. TWO PLAYERS IN THE LEAGUE, TWO OF WHICH ARE NEW TO OUR ROSTER I

HAVE ONE OF THEM RIGHT HERE ON THE DRIVING RANGE. POLISH SUPERSTAR ADRIAN MERONK. YOU PLAYED YOUR LOWEST COMPETITIVE ROUND YESTERDAY OF 62. I KNOW YOU MENTIONED YOU DID SOME GOOD WORK IN DUBAI. WHAT WORKED WELL FOR YOU YESTERDAY? >> JUST PLAYED SOLID OVERALL. YOU KNOW, THE GAME PLAYED SOLID GOOD OFF THE TEE.

A LOT OF GOOD LOOKS AS WELL. SO COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH LOWER, BUT, YEAH, IT WAS GREAT TO SHOOT THAT NUMBER. AND, YEAH, I AM EXCITED FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK. >> Su-Ann: I READ’ ARTICLE THIS MORNING THAT SAID THAT IT’S DIFFERENT OUT HERE AND YOU ARE

REALLY ENJOYING BEING ON A TEAM. WHAT IS THE CAMARADERIE LIKE ON THE CLEEKS? >> IT’S AMAZING, IT’S AMAZING IT’S MUCH MORE ENJOYABLE. IT’S MORE END TRAINING ON TOUR YOU ARE LONELY. MOST OF THE TIME AND HERE YOU HAVE A TEAM. AND EVEN LIKE OTHER TEAMS IT’S LIKE ONE BIG FAMILY.

SO IT’S JUST GREAT SPIRIT. AND I AM REALLY ENJOYING MY TIME HERE. >> Su-Ann: DO YOU THINK THAT HELPS YOU PLAY BETTER OUT HERE? >> DEFINITELY. IN BETTER MOODS, MORE RELAXED. DEFINITELY HELPS YOU TO PLAY BETTER GOLF TO, YOU KNOW, REACH YOUR POTENTIAL. >> Su-Ann: WELCOME TO THE FAMILY AND PLAY WELL TODAY.

>> THANK YOU. CHEERS. >> Arlo: HE TEED OFF AT 15, HE BOGEYED 16. HE WAS 9 UNDER THEREAFTER WITH . CHIPPING IN FOR A 2. REALLY INTERESTING READING AN ARTICLE, JERRY THIS MORNING ABOUT ADRIEN MERONK WHO SAID ONCE HE WAS OVER LOOKED SOMEWHAT CONTROVERSIALLY FOR THE RYDER CUP.

>> Jerry: NOT SOMEWHAT AT ALL. >> Arlo: IT WENT PRETTY WELL WITHOUT HIM IT HAS TO BE SAID HE WAS ON THE PHONE STRAIGHTAWAY ASKING ALL ABOUT LIV GOLF, SOMETIMES IT TAKES PLAYERS A WHILE TO SETTLE INTO THIS NEW SITUATION THAT THEY FIND THEMSELVES IN HE SAID I AM

FEELING MUCH BETTER THAN THE FIRST COUPLE OF WEEKS AND BOY, DID HE SHOW IT YESTERDAY. >> Jerry: ABSOLUTELY. AND IT WAS A LATE DECISION. WE DIDN’T KNOW HE WAS — HE DIDN’T KNOW HE WAS JOINING THERE WERE NOT EVEN TALKS GOING ON TWO MONTHS AGATHA ADRIEN MERONK MIGHT BE JOINING LIV GOLF, IT

WAS A HE LATE DECISION. YOU GO FROM PLAYING WHAT YOU HAVE GROPE UP PLAYING AND WHAT YOU ARE USED TO PLAYING. TO STANDARD TOUR GOLF FOR A MEMBER I’VE TEAM. SHOT GAP START, SPRINT TO THE P FINISH INCREDIBLY STACKED FIELD EDLY AT THE TOP. YOU GO FROM THAT DINNER GOLF,

LONELY GOLF AS HE SAID INTO THAT ENVIRONMENT IT. COULD BE A BIT OF A ADJUSTMENT PERIOD AND HE’S ADJUSTING QUICKLY. >> David: HE’S ADJUSTED FROM ADM POLAND TO EAST TENNESSEE STATE THAT’S A CULTURE SHOCK MOVING FROM ANYWHERE TO EAST TENNESSEE STATE MIGHT BE A CULTURE SHOCK. TALKING ABOUT BEING LONELY.

THERE ARE NOT A LOT OF POLISH PLAYERS OUT THERE WITH HIM. PUT IT THAT WAY. >> Arlo: HE’S A MAN THAT’S USED TO CHANGE IN HIS LIFE LET’S HEAD OUT AND SPEAK TO OUR ANALYST SU-ANN HELPING IN A MOMENT BUT FIRST DOM WHAT’S ON YOUR MIND. >> Dom: A PREMIUM ON HITTING

FAIRWAYS NOT ROYAL GREENS THE PLAYERS THAT SHOT 63 OR BETTER YESTERDAY. ENOUGH HIT MORE THAN SIX FAIRWAYS. STILL IMPORTANT TO MISS IT IN THE RIGHT SPOTS THIS OVERSEEDED GRASS DOESN’T TAKE SO MUCH SPIN OFF BUT YOU NEED TO WORK WITH IT. JOHN RAHM WAS A WHOPPING 5.71 STROKES GAINED ON THE GREENS YESTERDAY.

>> Su-Ann: A PLAYER THAT TOOK HIS GAME UP A FEW NOTCH THIS IS SEASON IS WAY SCENE NIEMANN I CAUGHT UP WITH HIS CADDY GARY MATTHEWS AND HE SAID THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE FROM LAST YEAR TO THIS YEAR IS THAT YES, HE’S ALWAYS BEEN A VERY HARD WORKER BUT THIS YEAR IT’S REALLY

STARTING TO COME TOGETHER BUT THE ONE THING THAT REALLY STOOD STOOD OUT TO ME ABOUT WHAT HE SAID IS THAT YES, HE’S A YOUNG PLAYER, BUT A YEAR OUT HERE MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE. AND HE’S TRULY BELIEVING THAT HE IS ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS IN THE WORLD. AND, WELL, IT’S CERTAINLY SHOWING.

>> Arlo: CERTAINLY IS, SU-ANN. AND WE ARE GETTING READY FOR OUR SHOTGUN START. JUST MOMENTS AWAY. JOHN RAHM LOOKS AS COOL AS EVER. TOP LEFT OF YOUR SCREEN. A VERY FOCUSED LOOKING BRYSON DeCHAMBEAU WHO WANTS A BETTER START TODAY THAN HE GOT YESTERDAY. ALTHOUGH HE FINISHED FABULOUSLY FOUR STRAIGHT BIRDIES.

HOW ABOUT PHIL, HE HAD A DOUBLE BOTH ANY A ROUND OF 65 AS WELL. COOL HAVE BEEN A LOT LOWER AND ANTHONY KIM. HAVING TEED IT UP YESTERDAY FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ALMOST 12 YEARS. HE GOES AGAIN AND WE WILL START THE 15th TEE. ANTHONY KIM 76 YESTERDAY.

LOTS OF UNFORCED ERRORS HE SAYS, HE HE CAN CLEAN THEM UP AND HE’S LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS, WHAT WILL SUPER SATURDAY HOLD IN STORE FOR A.K. WE ARE ABOUT TO FIND OUT. >> Jerry: HE SAID YESTERDAY STEPPING UP TO THAT FIRST TEE WAS A FEELING HE HAD NEVER HAD

BEFORE. THE FAIRWAY LACKED TINY, SO MUCH ANXIETY INTERNALLY HE WAS EXPERIENCING. THAT ONE WASN’T STRIPED. >> Arlo: HE DID FIND THE FAIRWAY ON ONE YESTERDAY. >> Jerry: YES. >> Arlo: CHARLES SCHWARTZEL 7 IS UNDER 603 YESTERDAY AS WELL. 17 STROKES BETTER THAT SAYS HIS FINAL ROUNDS IN LAS VEGAS A

COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, HE ACTUALLY PARRED HIS FINAL FIVE HOLES YESTERDAY. HERE IS JOHN RA*UPB RAHM, CO-LEADER AFTER A 62. IN ROUND ONE. >> Arlo: FIRST ROUNDS A ROYAL GREENS YESTERDAY HE SAID SOMETIME NOT KNOWING A SCORES A BLESSING. >> David: YEAH, THAT’S TRUE. IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHERE THE TROUBLE IS.

>> Jerry: NOT KNOWING IT WELL. IT WASN’T LIKE HE WAS COMPLETELY BLIND. THERE ARE PRACTICE ROUNDS PRO AMS AND A WORLD CLASS CADDY CHARTING IT OUT. D.J. AT 18. >> David: HE COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT LOWER YESTERDAY, DIDN’T PUTT PARTICULARLY WELL. STILL IMAGINED 66. >> Arlo: BACK AT THE TEE AT 1,

ADRIEN MERONK, HIS BEST LIVE ROUND ALL TO BE IN AN EMBRYONIC CAREER, BY FIVE SHOTS YESTERDAY. >> Jerry: TALL BY, BIG UP RIGHT SEEPING I SAW A SIDE BY SIDE OF HIM AND RAHM AT THE TOP OF THEIR GOLF SWING A LIV GOLF TWEET AS IT WERE, AND THEY DIDN’T LOOK

LIKE THIS WERE PLAYING A SAME SUPPORT. >> David: NO, THERE IS ABOUT A YARD DIFFERENCE. >> Arlo: ANOTHER GREAT ROUND YESTERDAY FOR JOAQO NIEMANN, ALBEIT HIS OLD BOGEY CAME ON THE FINAL HOLE IN THE SECOND. HE TEES BACK AT TWO, ONE BACK OF THE LEADERS. CHAMPION IN MEXICO IN THE FIRST

TO ENTER THE SEASON THIS IS EVENT THREE. >> David: OH, BOY, THAT IS CLOSE TO THE WITHOUT REQUIRED THERE. HERE IS PHILLIP. >> Jerry: THAT LOOKED GOOD. MIGHT BE TOO FAR, RIGHT? OH, YEAH, IT IS TOO FAR RIGHT. >> Arlo: WE ARE AROUND WAY ON SUPER SATURDAY HERE AT GORGEOUS

ROYAL GREENS ON THE SHORES OF THE RED SEA, LIV GOLF JEDDAH. A WORD ABOUT THE TEAM COMPETITION AS WELL. LEGION 13 LEAD THE WAY OVER STINGER BY A SINGLE SHOT. CALEB SURRATT ANOTHER IMPRESSIVE ROUND FOR THE 19-YEAR-OLD YESTERDAY. TYRRELL HATTON MR. ANGRY, DAVID, STILL ANGRY WITH YOU. APPARENTLY ACCORDING TO THE LOOK

ACROSS THE TABLE YESTERDAY. >> David: I LOVE HIM, THOUGH. I LOVE THE FACT THAT YOU ALWAYS KNOW HOW HE LOOKS ON THE GOLF COURSE. >> Arlo: HE LOVES YOU TOO. >> David: HE’S ONLY HUMAN. >> Arlo: JOHN RAHM 8 UNDER PAR. COMING OFF THEIR WORST EVER PERFORMANCE A TEAM IN VEGAS,

STINGER WHICH THEY WERE A LOWLY 12th PLACE OUT OF 13 I THINK THEY HAVE HAD A COLLECTIVE KICK ON THE BACKSIDE AND 16 UNDERGOING TO SUPER SATURDAY’S SHOT BACK OF LEGION 13. KOZUMA 4, SCOTT VINCENT 3 UNDER PAR. EARLY TROUBLE FOR ANTHONY KIM. >> David: IS THAT A TIRE TRACK?

>> Jerry: IT IS, YEAH. >> David: MAYBE. MAY GET SOME RELIEF FROM THAT. IF IT’S ONE OF THOSE RUTS FROM A MAINTENANCE CART. >> Jerry: IT’S BEEN A DOZEN YEARS SINCE HE’S CALLED FOR A RULING. >> David: YEAH. >> Jerry: THE RULES HAVE CHANGED. >> David: YEAH. THE EQUIPMENT HAS CHANGED. >> 205.

>> Arlo: ANTHONY KIM HAS FOUND A SPOT OF TROUBLE OFF HIS FIRST TEE, THE 15th. >> David: WHICH IS HARDEST HOLE ON THE GOVERNMENT COURSE YESTERDAY. AND THEN WE HEARD HIM SAY 205. SO THAT’S A CONSIDERABLE DISTANCE HE’S LEFT HIMSELF IN FROM WHAT LOOKS LIKE I CAN ONLY IMAGINE THIS BALL IS IT’S

SIP ON THE EDGE OF A RUT IF HE’S NOT ASKING FOR RELIEF. >> Jerry: LOOKS LIKE HE CAN GET TO THE BACK OF IT CLEANLY. >> David: NO. >> Arlo: IS TO THE SECOND AND BN DeCHAMBEAU. >> Su-Ann: THAT WAS A GAP WEDGE. >> Arlo: HAD HEY HOPES GOING

INTO THE FINAL DAY IN LAS VEGAS WHERE HE TIED FOR THE LEAD WITH DUSTIN JOHNSON WITH 74. HERE IS ADRIAN MERONK. >> Dom: LITTLE UNLUCKY. JUST FINDING THE THICK ROUGH. BUT AS I SAID EARLIER, IF YOU’VE GOT THE RIGHT ANGLE, IT’S NOT TOO TOUGH A SHOT. DOESN’T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE BUNKER.

NEEDS TO SIT. >> David: OKAY. >> Dom: ALMOST IN THE SAME DIVOT HE HIT HIS IDENTITY SHOT TO YESTERDAY HERE ON THE FIRST HOLE. NOW BEING I THINK JUDGING BOY THAT PRACTICE SWING HE WILL FLY THE RIDGE 10 YARDS SHORT OF THE GREEN ON THE SECOND BOUNCE WATCH IT ZIP. >> David: YEP.

GOOD SHOT. JUST A LITTLE LOUD. >> Arlo: JOAQO NIEMANN HIS SECOND SHOT AT 2. >> David: OH, BOY, THAT JUMPED BACK OUT SEMI ROUGH. THAT HAD A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF SPIN ON IT. >> Jerry: YEAH. >> Arlo: LOOK AT STINGER WITH THE 2 STROKE LEAD OVER THE CALEB

SURRATT’S LEGION 13, HE IS HERE AT 13. >> David: SO HARD TO KEEP IT OUT OF THE BUNKERS ON THE RIGHT HERE. >> David: I SUSPECT THAT WAS A MISHIT. TOO FAR FOR A LAYUP. AK IS THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT LOOSE IMPEDIMENT. >> Arlo: WHO WAS IT WHO TOOK THE

GOLF SHOT ON THE MOON? SIMILAR TERRAIN. >> Jerry: WAS THAT KNEEL ARMSTRONG? I CAN’T REMEMBER. >> Arlo: WHOEVER IT WAS IT’S STILL GOING. >> Jerry: I AM GETTING THE GOOGLE THE. WOW. >> Arlo: TOUGH START FOR ANTHONY. >> David: YEAH, EXTREMELY DIFFICULT SHOT. LONG, LONG BUNKER SHOT.

>> Arlo: NOW STING OR 18 UNDER PAR, THEY STARTED THE DAY ON 16 UNDER PAR. BRANDEN GRACE, HIS SECOND SHOT AT THE FIFTH. AND IT’S IN. THAT’S AN EAGLE FOR BRANDEN GRACE. WHAT A START FOR HIM. WHAT A START FOR STINGER. TYRRELL HATTON HAS BOGEYED HIS FIRST HOLE THE THIRD.

SO LEGION 13 HAVE DROPPED AT SHOT. AND. >> Jerry: EVEN IS SCREAM AGO THE MY LACK OF AMERICAN HISTORY KNOWLEDGE IT’S ALAN SHEPHERD, 50 YEARS AGO. >> David: AMERICAN HISTORY IS GREAT. THERE IS JUST NOT THAT MUCH OF IT. >> Jerry: COMPARATIVELY. >> David: YEAH. >> Arlo: THEY HAVE CRAM AHEAD

LOT IN TO A SHORT REPORT. >> David: YEAH, WE HAVE. >> Jerry: CAM SMITH FROM THE FIRST CUT OF ROUGH. A PITCH SHOT HERE. MAKING CONTACT. >> Arlo: LOOKS LIKE THAT RASK S ASKING FOIA RULING HERE? >> Dom: YEAH, STEVE KAVANAUGH ONE OF THE RULES OFFICIALS. >> Arlo: THAT WAS A QUICK CONVERSATION.

>> Su-Ann: BRYSON HERE ON SECOND FOR A BIRDIE OPPORTUNITY WITH HIS OPENING HOLE. GOOD READ FROM THE CHIP. >> David: YEAH, HE WAS DENIED BECAUSE THE BALL WAS NOT ON A CLOSELY MOAN AREA. HE’S WITHIN TWO LENGTH OF THE GREEN. >> Arlo: IT’S NOT A NICELY. >> Jerry: THAT’S A CASE WHERE

TWO AND TWO EQUALS ZERO. NO DROP. >> Dom: I THOUGHT IT EQUALED THREE. >> Arlo: LETS GET YOU CAUGHT UP WITH A.K.’S TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS ON 15. THIS IS HIS FOURTH SHOT. >> David: RELATIVELY SIMPLE BUNKER SHOT. >> Arlo: BACK TO THE GREEN AT 1. AND JOHN RAHM FOR THE OUT RIGHT LEAD.

>> Jerry: DAVID MENTIONED WHEN WE WERE DOING THE OPEN OF THE SHOW THERE, BUT JOHN RAHM IS USED TO BEING THE ALPHA DOG. THE ALPHA MALE. WE HAVE PAIN OF OF THOSE OUT HERE AND HE KNOWS IT. BUT HE WANTS TO BE TOP DOG. LIKE THEY ALL DO.

I THINK IN HIS MIND HE FEELS LIKE HE’S BEHIND SCHEDULE FOR A WIN. SHOCKINGLY. ONLY PLAYING TWO EVENTS. >> Arlo: JOHN RAHM IS PLAYING OMINOUSLY GOOD GOLF. ONE HOLE, ONE BIRDIE. NAPE UNDER PAR, LEASE BY 1. >> David: KEVIN THAT NA OVER. >> Arlo: KEVIN NA GETS IT TO 5 UNDER PAR.

NOW JOAQUIN KNEE MAP FOR BIRDIE AT 2. NOW BACK TO 1 FOR ADRIEN THAT OFTEN TO STAY JUST ONE BACK OF JOHN RAHM. >> David: HOW TALL IS HE, 6’6″, 6’7″. HE’S OVER TAKEN THOMAS PIETERS AS THE CALL ESTEBAN IN THE FIELD. JERRY IT USED TO BE A DISADVANTAGE TO BE THAT BIG.

>> Jerry: YEAH. >> David: WHEN YOU THINK OF IT. THERE WERE VERY FEW THERE WERE VERY FEW TALL PLAYERS BACK IN OUR DAY, BUT WITH THE NEW EQUIPMENT AND BIGGER HEADS. >> Arlo: YOU CAN SCAN THE QR CODES ON YOUR SCREENS AND VOTE FOR WHO WILL GO LOWEST TODAY,

RAHM STARTS WITH A BIRD YOU SO PERHAPS PREDICTABLY 54% OF YOU CLAIM HE WILL GO LOWEST TODAY. CHRISTIAN WILL BRING YOU UP UP-TO-DATE WITH A POLL IN THE POST GAME SHOW TODAY. THIS IS A.K. FOR BOGEY ON 15. >> David: THAT’S WELL DONE. >> Arlo: YOU WERE TELLING

CHRISTIAN EARLIER IN THE CLUB 54 YOU THOUGHT IT WAS BROOKS WHO — >> Jerry: THEY DON’T HAVE ALL THE NAMES ON THERE. I THINK BROOKS GOES LOWEST TODAY. HE’S TWO-TIME DEFENDING CHAMPION HERE. 1 UNDER, 7 BACK AFTER ROUND ONE. ABSOLUTELY. >> Arlo: WHILST WE WAIT FOR D.J. LET’S GET YOU COULDN’T WITH A

COUPLE OF HYFLYERS, ANDY OGLETREE, HIS SECOND SHOT IN TO 13. THE MAN WHO WON THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES LAST SEASON. SO GAMED HIS PASSAGE ONTO THE LIV GOLF CIRCUIT FOR 2024, HE WILL MAKE BIRDIE THERE. CAMERON TRINGALE FOR BIRDIE AT 7. AND CAMERON ROLLS THAT ONE IN BEAUTIFULLY. 68 FOR HIM YESTERDAY.

AND HE STARTED WELL TODAY IN THE HYFLYERS UNTIL A TIE FOR THIRD CURRENTLY SEEKING A FIRST PODIUM IN A WHILE. 14 UNDER PAR. >> David: D.J. FOR EAGLE. SECOND TEE. >> Dom: DAVID, I CAN THINK OF THREE GOLFERS WHO WERE EXTREMELY TALL AND SUCCESSFUL. I DON’T REMEMBER ARCHER WON THE

MASTERS, PETER ANOTHER HOUSE AND PHIL BLACK HAR WHO WON ON THE PGA TOUR. >> David: YEP, GEORGE ARCHER, THEY WERE FEW AND PAR FIND. AND JACK NICKLAUS WAS THE IDEAL BUILD. 5’10”. 5’11”. LOW CENTER OF GRAVITY. >> Jerry: I THINK THE REASON, DAVID IS EASIER TALL GUYS CALL GUYS HAD OTHER OPTIONS SHORT

GUYS DIDN’T. WHEN YOU WERE BAD AT OTHER SPORTS YOU TOOK UP GOLF. NOW GOLF IS COOL. ATHLETES TAKE UP GOLF. >> Dom: HIT DRIVER YESTERDAY. BUT THAT DIDN’T LOOK LACK A DRIVER. >> Arlo: TO THE TEE AT THREE. SU-ANN YOU ARE WATCHING BY DeCHAMBEAU. >> Su-Ann: I AM, ARLO. PLAYING 93.

STRAIGHT OFF THE LEFT. FRONT HOLE LOCATION, BRYSON HAS GOT 7 IRON. >> Arlo: HIS CONFIDENCE IS AT SUCH A HIGH. ALMOST CHASING 59 HE HAVE TIME HE GUESS OUT ON TO THE GOLF COURSE. GOES MY GOAL IS TO BE A MACHINE OUT THERE. >> David: 16. AND A.K. CAME OUT OF THAT ONE.

LITTLE RIGHT. THAT’S A MISS HIS AT WELL. >> Jerry: THAT’S GOING TO BE A DIFFERENT GAME FOR HIM TODAY FROM AN ADRENALINE STOP POINT. AND KNOWING THAT HE DOESN’T HAVE A LOT OF POSITIVE EXPERIENCES TO DRAW UPON DOES ANTHONY KIM. HE MAKES THAT FOR BIRDIE. HE MEETS TO LAY A FOUNDATION

UPON WHICH TO BUILD. IT’S GOING TO BE TOUGH. I THINK TODAY WILL BE HIS TOUGHEST DAY. >> David: BEAUTIFUL SHOT FROM CAMERON SMITH. MERONK WITH THE DRIER ARE D. >> Dom: LOOKS PRETTY GOOD BUT WITH THIS WIND IT MIGHT COULD GET INTO THE BUNKER. >> Arlo: BIG JOHN RAHM IS THE

BIG MOVER SO FAR ON SUPER SATURDAY. BIRDIE HIS OPENING HOLE. MERONK IS THE STORY. TASTY SAYS. >> Arlo: I THINK THEIR BOTH STORIES IN THEIR OPEN RIGHT. HARD TO SAY THAT JOHN RAHM SEEK EIGHTH FIRST LIV GOLF TITLE IS NOT THE STORY HERE IN JEN JEDDAH. SO*ERPBL SERGIO GARCIA SECOND

SHOT TO 17. >> Jerry: HAVE WE EVER HAD A STORY NORTH JUST WHAT WE CONSIDER A STORE, BUT IN THE GOLF LANDSCAPE WHAT IS A STORY EVERY SINGLE EVENT. >> Arlo: ABSOLUTELY. SEBATIÁN 3450U7B CROWS SECOND SHOT IN TO 6. PAR FOUR. HE WAS THE ODD MAP OUT OF THE

TORQUE QUARTET IN OMAN IN THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES LAST WEEK. CARLOS ORTIZ WON IT. JOAQUIN ME MAN AND PEREIRA ALSO IN THE TOP FIVE. LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN FINISHED SECOND IN THAT COMPETITION AS WELL. IS IT TIME FOR BRAND MOAN YUM. PEAK BLAND MOAN YUM. PRAISE FOR THE CLEEKS AND PLAYING EXTRAORDINARILY WELL. HOYLING ONE

HOYLE HOLDING. GRAEME McDOWELL WAS MVP FOR SMASH AS THEY TOOK THE TEAM TITLE ON THE FINAL DAY IN LAS VEGAS. THAT WAS FOR BIRDIE AT 15. >> Jerry: THAT WAS ANTHONY KIM’S FIFTH SHOT. SHORT ON THE GREEN. >> Arlo: NIEMANN FIRST TO PLAY AT THREE. >> Su-Ann: A LITTLE BIT OF GRASS

ON THAT BALL. MATE BE WHY HE’S OPT TO GO PUTT IT. >> Arlo: THIS IS THE THIRD GREEN, SU-ANN, WHO IS NEXT TO PLAY? >> Su-Ann: I BELIEVE IT’S BRYSO BRYSON. I WAS ON THE PUTTING GREEN WITH HIM. RIGHT BEFORE WE TEED OFF AND HE’S THE ONLY PLAYER UNTIL THIS

FIELD OR MAYBE EVER, THAT USES THE FORESIGHT ON THE PUTTING GREEN TO MEASURE HIS PUTTS AND THE SPEED AND THE ROLL. VERY MUCH CALCULATED GOLFER IF COULD BE THE ONLY PLAYER IN HISTORY, ACTUALLY, SU-ANN TO HAVE DONE THAT. >> Su-Ann: I DON’T THINK I HAVE EVER SEEN A FOUR SHOT ON THE

PUTTING GREEN, HE WAS EXPLAINING TO ME HOW HE PRESSURES THE SPEED AND THE ROLL AND HE LIKES TO PUTT HIS LAG PUTTS OR ANY PUTTS TWO FEET PAST. WARMS UP WITH A RULER ON THE GROUND JUST FORGET A FEEL OF HOW FAR BACK HE LIKES TO TAKE THE PUTTER.

>> David: LITTLE ONE FOR CAM SOMETHING HERE. HE STARTS WITH TWO IN A ROW. >> Jerry: COULDN’T HARDLY GET ANYTHING FOR FALL IN ROUND ONE, DAVID. HE SAID THESE GREENS ARE TRICKY FOR HIM TO READ. FIGURE THEM OUT EVENTUALLY. SCHWARTZEL AT 2. >> Dom: VERY CONSERVATIVE ONCE AGAIN OFF THE TEE.

LEFT HIMSELF A LONG WAY BACK ON THE OPENING HOLE WITH HIS SECOND SHOT. ONCE AGAIN THE SAME THING HERE. BUT PLAYING FROM THE FAIRWAY, MAYBE THAT’S THE STRAT STWREU FOR STRATEGY FOR TODAY. >> Jerry: THAT LOWER GRAPHIC WHERE YOU SEE ABOVE AVERAGE THAT’S CALCULATE ED IN THE

STROKES GAME AND GIVEN TO YOU IN AN EASIER TO DIGEST CONSUMPTION FORMAT. >> Arlo: TYRRELL HATTON, HIS THIRD SHOT AT 4. OPENED WITH A BOGEY 4 AT THE THIRD. >> David: BEAUTIFUL SHOT THERE. >> Arlo: GREAT CHANCE TO GAIN THAT BACK IMMEDIATELY. >> Jerry: GETTING THAT SPIN OFF A DOWNHILL LIE.

THAT WAS — THAT’S BEEN OUT OF THE BUNKER OUT OF A DOWNHILL LIE, THAT’S PRETTY IMPRESSIVE. >> David: YEAH. JOHN RAHM HAS OPTIONED HERE IF HE GOES STRAIGHT FOR THE PIN HE HAS TO BE PRECISE, STRAIGHT DOWN WIND, GOOD FIRST BOUNCE BUT CAN TAKE THE WATER OUT OF PLAY. LEAN IT LEFT.

AND LET THE SLOPE TAKE DOWN TO THE HOLE. USING A 60-DEGREE WEDGE, HE ACTUALLY CAN GO STRAIGHT FOR THE PIN. GOT PLENTY OF SPIN ON IT. NO TOOK THE SAFE OPTION, PRETTY GOOD SHOT. >> David: FIRST TEE, DUSTIN JOHNSON. LOOKING FOR HIS LITTLE FIVE-YARD CUT. DIDN’T QUITE GET IT. JUST NAILED IT STRAIGHT.

>> Arlo: ADRIEN MERONK AT 2. >> Dom: ONCE AGAIN OFF THE FAIRWAY, GOOD ANGLE. PLAYING FOR THE BALL TO RUN OUT. >> David: TOOK A HARD BOUNCE AND RAN OUT A LITTLE TOO FAR, DOM, MIGHT COME BACK A TOUCH. >> Arlo: NOW, THE ACCESS PROVIDED BY THE PLAYERS ON THE

LIV GOLF LEAGUE IS DIFFERENT THAN ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE SPORT. BEFORE ROUND ONE HERE IN JEDDAH. CLEEKS CAPTAIN MARTIN KAYMER INVITED OUR CAMERAS ALONG AS HE AND NEW TEAMMATE CALI SAMOOJA HEADED TO THE COURSE. >> HI, I AM CALI ZAMORA. >> I AM MARTIN KAYMER CAPTAIN OF THE LEAGUES.

WE ARE ON OUR WAY FOR THE FIRST ROUNDS, COME AND JOIN US. >> HOMES TIMES HAVE YOU PLAYED HERE ROYAL GREEN? >> THIS IS MY FOURTH TIME HERE. THIRD OR FOURTH, YEAH. ALL THE EUROPEAN EVENTS WE HAD HERE. >> YOU PLAYED THE VERY FIRST UP WITH? >> YEAH, IN ’19.

>> WHAT DO YOU THINK THE WINNING SCORE WILL BE? >> I TALKED TO RICHARD. HE SAID HE SHOT 9 UNDER AND HE WAS 11. SO WHAT HAVE THAT MEANS, 14, FIFTH 17, 18 OPPORTUNITIES. THEIR EACH IS A TOUGH HOLE BUT THE WIND IS THE LOWEST AT THE TIME.

THEY ARE DIFFICULT HOLES ON THE FRONT LINE AND BACK LINE. I DON’T LIKE IT TO START WITH A PAR 3. >> I AM STARTING WITH A PAR 3. AT 11. >> I DIDN’T LIKE THAT. >> GOOD LUCK TODAY. >> YEAH, GOOD LUCK. >> SEE YOU. >> SEE YOU. >> Arlo: MARTY KAYMER STREP

LEFT HIMSELF A TOUGH ANGLE, MISHIT THAT THIRD SHOT TOO. ROUGH START FOR ADRIEN MERONK. HE’S LOOKING OUT TO THE RIGHT. SO MANY PLAYERS NOW THEY PUTT. THEY TUCK THEIR SHIRT UNDER THE LEFT ARMPIT. JUST TO GIVE HIM A FEEL OF CONNECTION. >> Arlo: BACK TO 5 AND BRYSON FOR BIRDIE.

8 UNDER PAR, THIS FOR BIRDIE AT 5. THIS SETTLES A FEW EARLY NERVES FOR THE GIANT HOLE. THERE HE GOES. HE STARTED A LITTLE SLOWLY YESTERDAY. AFTER TWO AND CAME ROARING BACK AND MAYBE A SIGN OF SOMETHING SIMILAR ON SUPER SATURDAY. MERONK IS 8 UNDER. SCHWARTZEL FOR PAR.

>> Arlo: IT’S STILL JOHN RAHM WHO LEADS THE WAY. 9 UNDER PAR A HIS LEGION 13 TIED WITH STINGER FOR FIRST. ASK. >> Arlo: AN UNTHIS KIM FOR BIRDIE AT ONE, 43320 DAYS SINCE HE PLAYED COMPETITIVE GOLF WHEN HE TEED OFF YESTERDAY AND THAT IS A WELCOMED BIRDIE FOR A.K.

ELSEWHERE THE RANGEGOATS DOWN TO THREE PLAYERS AFTER THE WITHDRAWAL TODAY OF MATTHEW WOLFF. SO ALL THREE SCORES WILL COUNT. THAT WAS PETER UIHLEIN FOR BIRDIE AT THREE. DANNY LEE FOR A HIGH-PERFORMING IRON HEADS, DANNY SHE LEIGH GOING EXCELLENTLY TODAY. THE IRON HEADS ARE IN THIRD SPOT. 19 UNDER PAR SEEKING A FIRST

PODIUM SINCE TUCSON EARLY LAST SEASON. >> David: MARTINEZ ON THE 6th 6h TEE. >> Dom: STRAIGHT TOWARDS THE RED SEA, STRAIGHT INTO THE WIND. >> David: YEAH, 470 YARDS, TOUGH HOLE. >> Dom: YEAH. BUNKER BOUND. >> David: HOPE IF A DECENT LIE IN THE FRONT OF THE BUNKER. >> Dom: CHARLES SCHWARTZEL SEEMS

TO PUT MORE SPIN ON THE BALL WITH HIS DRIVE THAN THE OTHER TWO. THIS COULD HURT HIM ON THIS HOLE. >> Dom: GREG NORMAN HAS BEEN FOLLOWING THIS GROUP THE ENTIRE WAY. HE’S WATCHING A LOT OF GOLF THESE DAYS. >> Dom: I THINK THAT’S GOING TO MISS THE FAIRWAY RIGHT.

>> Arlo: WELL, OUR JERRY FOLTZ HAS KNOWN ANTHONY KIM FOR YEARS AND WAS THRILLED AS ANYONE TO LEARN THAT HAD CHARISMATIC PLAYER WAS RETURNING TO PROFESSIONAL GOLF. HE SHARES HIS THOUGHTS IN ANOTHER ROUND WITH FOLTZY. [ AUDIO DIFFICULTIES ] >> Arlo: WE GOT OURSELF A LITTLE GREMLIN HERE, JERRY. A FALSE START.

WE’LL COME BACK TO YOU IN A FEW SECONDS WHEN WE GET THIS SORTED OUT. YOU PLUG YOURSELF IN. >> Jerry: I THINK I GOT IT, ARLO. I THINK I FIXED IT. >> Arlo: HE’S MORE LIKE IT. >> David: HE’S BACK. >> Jerry: ALL RIGHT. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST EVER.

I THINK WE HAVE ALL ENJOYED THE STORIES OVER THE YEARS THE LAST 12 YEARS OF THE LEGEND THAT IS AND WAS ANTHONY KIM. CHARISMATIC, TALENTED BEYOND BELIEF WITH A ZEST FOR LIFE THAT FEW OTHERS HAD AND A POTENTIAL TO BE SOMEBODY REALLY, REALLY SPECIAL IN THE GAME. OBVIOUSLY, THAT DIDN’T COME TO FRUITION.

INJURIES DROVE HIM AWAY FROM THE GAME AND THEN HE STAYED AWAY FROM THE GAME FOR NEARLY A DOZEN YEARS. BRIAN HARMON ON A PODCAST NOT THAT LONG AGO SAID HE’S ONE OF THE BEST IF NOT THE BEST PLAYER HE HAD EVER PLAYED WITH. IT WAS SEAN O’HARA WHO SAID IN

HIS MIND, HE WAS DESITIN TODAY THE HALL OF FAME IN GOLF. THOSE TORIES WE’LL NEVER KNOW WHAT ANTHONY HAS DONE IN THE LAST TWO YEARS I AM SURE HIS STORY WILL COME OUT WHEN HE FEELS READY TO TELL IT. HE DOESN’T SO US ANYTHING. WE HAVE BEEN LEFT TO WONDER THE ENTIRE TIME.

BUT WONDERING STOPPED. THIS WEEK. WHEN ANTHONY KIM SHOOTS THIS WEEK IS COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT. THE FACT THAT HE’S BACK IN THE GAME. THE GAME THAT HE GREW UP LOVING AND THE GAME THAT BECAUSE OF HIS DAUGHTER HAS REINTRODUCED HIM TO THE LOVE OF THIS GAME. HAS BROUGHT HIM BACK AND BROUGHT

HIM BACK TO LIV. WE DON’T NEED TO REALLY WORRY ABOUT WHAT ANTHONY KIM SHOOTS UNTIL MAYBE LATER IN THE YEAR IF HE’S NOT SEWING SIGNS OF LIFE WE CAN SECOND-GUESS THE DECISION BUT NO NOW ONE THING THAT MATTERS THE MOST IS THAT YOUNG LADY THERE. YOUNG BELLA KIM I TALKED TO

ANTHONY TODAY AND I SAID YOU ARE A FATHER NOW HE SAID THAT’S ALL I AM, JERRY. HE’S A GOLFER THE A MEMBER OF LIV. HE WANTS TO GET BACK TO A VERSION OF THE FORM HE ONCE HELD. BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY THAN ANYTHING HE HAS HIS LIFE IN PERSPECTIVE.

AS WE ALL KNOW LIFE HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE CHILDREN. >> Arlo: NO SHRINKING VIOLENT EITHER. BELLA. AND EMILY HIS WIFE IS THERE AS WELL. THE EQUILIBRIUM IN THE LIFE OF ANTHONY KIM. IT’S BEEN I TRICKY SECOND ROUND SO FAR FOR ANTHONY. HE TEED OFF AT FINE, THIS IS HIS THIRD SHOT.

A BOGEY THERE. THIS IS HIS THIRD IN TO 18. BUT HE CAN STILL WALK ON WATER. BUT CRUCIALLY FOR A.K., HE’S HOLDING IT TOGETHER OUT THERE AS HE SEARCHES. FOR THAT FORM OF OVER A DECADE AGO. THAT WAS FOR BIRDIE AT 1. AND DON’T FORGET YOU CAN WATCH EVERY SHOT THAT ANTHONY PLAYS

TODAY ON LIV GOLF PLUS IF YOU HAVE NOT DOWN LOADED THE APP ALREADY, DO SO NOW WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. JOACO NIEMANN WAS 14 YEARS OLD THE LAST TIME ANTHONY KIM PLAYED A PROFESSIONAL ROUND. THE LINE I LIKE, HOWARD VARNER, III JUST YOU TURNED PRO, CALEB SURRATT WAS IS NOW 19 AND

PLAYING AB FUSS GOLF AND IT’S GOING TO TAKE TIME, ISN’T IT? I SUPPOSE LOOKING AT THE 76 YESTERDAY THE EARLY STRUGGLES TODAY IT’S ALREADY A TEST OF HIS MENTAL. AND HIS MENTAL CAPACITY JUST TO HOLD IT TOWING IN THE OPENING EVENT BACK AFTER ALMOST 12 YEARS. >> Jerry: YEAH. THE GAME IS TOUGH.

THE GAME IS VERY TOUGH. AND RIGHT NOW ANTHONY PLAYING A GAME WITH WHICH HE IS UNFAMILIAR TO STEAL’ OLD FAMOUS QUOTE. THE SWING LOOKS THE SAME. IT CERTAINLY DOESN’T FEEL THE SAME. HE DOESN’T REALLY REMEMBER WHAT IT FEELS LIKE FROM WAY BACK THEN AND TODAY WILL BE HIS TOUGHEST DAY.

I DON’T EXPECT TODAY TO BE ANY GOOD AT ALL FROM HERE HE STARTS THE BUILDING PROCESS. I DON’T THINK WE NEED TO WORRY ABOUT HIM FOR A NUMBER OF MONTHS AND AT THAT POINT THE FIRE WILL BE THERE. THE PRACTICE, THE WORK ETHIC. THE FEELING LIKE YOU BLOCK WILL

BE THERE, DAVID AND THEN I THINK WE’LL SEE THE REAL ANTHONY KIM START TO SHOW ONES OF LIFE. >> David: YEAH, I HOPE SO. LAT TIME HE COMPETED I WAS IRISH. >> Jerry: THAT’S TRUE. >> David: YEAH. YEAH. [ LAUGHTER ] >> David: MERONK FROM THE BUNKER. >> Jerry: FOR NOW, THOUGH, I

THINK, GENTLEMEN, WE SHOULD JUST ENJOY SEEING HIM BLESSING US WITH HIS PRESENCE ON THE FAIRWAYS. >> Arlo: HERER OWES THE FAIRWAY THE BEAUTY IS HE HAS TIME. THAT WILDCARD FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE SEASON AND THE LIV GOLF LEAGUE. NO CUTS TO MISS. THREE ROUNDS HE HAVE SINGLE TOURNAMENT.

>> Jerry: THERE IS A LOT OF DISINGENUOUS COMMENT ABOUT ANTHONY, HE HAD HIS OPTIONS. HE COULD HAVE PLAYED THE PGA TOURS THE PAST CHAMPION GOTTEN LIMITED SPONSOR EXCEPTIONS AND THE SPONSORS WOULD HAVE BEEN CLAMORING FOR ANTHONY TIM KIM TO PLAY IN THEIR EVENTS FOR A LONG, LONG TIME.

>> Arlo: HERE SOUR LEADER JOHN RAHM ON 9 UNDER PAR, SECOND SHOT AT 6. THE DUCK TEE FOR JOHN RAHM A LITTLE FRUSTRATION BUT HE HOLDS THAT ONE STROKE LEAD OVER CHARLES SCHWARTZEL. AND ADRIEN MERONK. MOMENTS AGO, LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN, HIS SECOND SHOT AT 7. >> David: LOVELY LITTLE PUNCH SWING.

>> Arlo: THAT WOULD LEAD TO BIRDIE OF COURSE. >> David: KEVIN NA OVER ON THE FOURTH. YOU HAD KEVIN ON YOUR PODCAST NOT SO LONG AGO, JERRY. >> Jerry: WE DID IN VEGAS, WE RECORDED IT ON SITE IN VEGAS. >> David: HE’S UNIQUE IN A COUPLE OF WAYS, HE’S SUCH A JOURNEYMAN.

HE’S BEEN OUT HERE, HE’S BEEN THROUGH ALL KINDS OF UPS AND DOWNS IN HIS CAREER. SURVIVED THEM ALL. STILL A WORLD CLASS PLAYER. >> Jerry: ABSOLUTELY. HE HAD THE — I GUESS YOU WOULD CALL IT THE SEEPING YIPS THINK COULD COULDN’T GET THE CLUB BACK. >> David: YEAH.

>> Jerry: HE ALMOST WON THE PLAYERS DOING THAT. >> David: YEAH. >> David: AND THE DRIVER YIPS OR THE DRIPS AS I LIKE TO CALL THEM. [ LAUGHTER ] >> David: I HAVE THE DRIPS NOW AND I DON’T EVEN PLAY. [ LAUGHTER ] >> Arlo: SHALL I TAKE THIS ONE, JERRY.

>> Jerry: YEAH. >> Arlo: D.J.’S SECOND SHOT AT 5. WE ARE GOING TO THE TEE AT 8. AND LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN WHO IS CHALLENGING AGAIN, HE’S 8 UNDER PAR. 2 UNDER FOR HIS ROUND SO FAR. COMING ON OF A SECOND PLACE FINISH IN THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES IN OMAN. >> Su-Ann: AND HE’S STROLLING

AROUND THE GOLF COURSE. AS LOUIS DOES, VERY RELAXED. JOKING AROUND. HAS A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR. >> Jerry: WHILE WE WAIT FOR LOUIS WE CHECK IN WITH JOHN RAHM AT NUMBER SIX INCOME, HIS THIRD SHOT SIDE OF THE GREEN. >> Dom: JUDGING BY THE PRACTICE SWINGS IT FLIES IT THE GREEN, I

PUT THOUGHT HE MIGHT BUMP IN FRONT OF HIM AND KICK TO THE LEFT. DOWNWIND TOO. GOODNESS, HOW MUCH SPINS DOES HE PUT ON THOSE SHOTS. >> Su-Ann: LOUIS IS NOW READY TO GO HERE ON THE 8th PLAYING 170 INTO AND OFF THE LEFT IS WHERE THE WIND IS COME CAN GO FROM.

HE HAS A 6 IRON, LOOKS LIKE HE’S PUTTING IT BACK IN HIS STANCE, JUST TRYING TO FLIGHT ONE DOWN HERE. >> Arlo: ELSEWHERE ACROSS THE GOFF COURSE AT ROYAL GREENS PAUL CASE CASEY WHO HAD AN EXCELLENT OPENING ROUND IN MEXICO. AND ALSO IN LAS VEGAS A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO.

HE PLAYS FOR THE CRUSHERS THAT WAS HIS SECOND SHOT AT 15. THE HYFLYERS HAPPENING A SUPER DAY. HYFLYERS ARE GOING WELL AS WELL. THAT WAS HIS THIRD SHOT. AT 18. HE WOULD MAKE HIS BIRDIE THERE. >> Jerry: ANTHONY KIM FOR BIRDIE AT 2. OH. >> Arlo: BACK TO THE TEE AT

8 AND JOAQO NIEMANN. >> HE HAS TO PITCH 68. 68 IS PLAYING — THERE IS A 76. >> Su-Ann: THIS IS A VERY FAMILIAR SCENE. LOOKED LIKE THE FINAL DAY IN MYAYAKOBO. CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN HIM AND HIS CADDY, GARY. 7 OR 8 WENT WITH THE 8. BEEN WORKING ON EVERY ASPECT OF HIS GAME.

AND IT’S ALL COMING TOGETHER. TRYING TO FLIGHT ONE LEFT TO RIGHT. LOOKING PRETTY GOOD. >> David: OH. >> Arlo: TO THE SIXTH GREEN, SCHWARTZEL TO TIE. >> Dom: IT WAS A TERRIFIC SECOND SHOT FROM A THICK LIE IN THE ROUGH. >> David: FIFTH GREEN AND D.J. IN SEARCH ONE HANDILY FOR BIRDIE.

>> Arlo: A MOMENT AGO AT SIX, ADRIEN MERONK FOR BIRD FRIDAY DISTANCE. >> David: DIFFERENT PUTT COMING ACROSS THE RIDGE. >> David: THAT’S A GOOD LAG. OVER AT THE FIFTH. THAT FOR D.J. YOUNG CALEB ZÁRATE HAD THIS FOR BIRDIE. >> GOOD PUTT. >> Jerry: FOR PAR AT 6.

>> Jerry: THAT’S A FOUR WAY TIE AT THE TOP. RAHM ONE CLEAR OF OOSTHUIZEN. OR EXCUSE ME — YEAH, OOSTHUIZEN, SCHWARTZEL AND MERONK. CAL RON TRINGALE. THIS GOT HIM TO 3 UNDER FOR THE DAY OUT AT 13. WELL. >> Arlo: WELL, IT’S AT YOU WERE IN THE INDIVIDUAL PYLON, JOHN RAHM LEADI

HE WAY. STING ARE HAVE ONE-STROKE HEED IN THE TEAM COMPETITION. >> Arlo: TO THE 9th AND BRENDAN STEEN. LOOK AT THE HYFLYERS GO. >> David: HARD SHOT. NOT TO HIT IT LEFT OF THE FLAG. YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE WATER IS THERE. >> Arlo: BRENDAN 1 UNDER PAR.

HIS SCORE NOT COUNTING FOR THE HYFLYERS WHO ARE COLLECTIVELY 8 UNDER PAR FOR THEIR COUNTING SCORE, SURGED INTO SECOND PLACE, A TIE FOR SECOND, ONE BEHIND THE STINGERS. >> David: D.J. ON THE 6 TEE. >> Jerry: I THINK IN LIV GOLF THE IDEAL SCENARIO IS YOU PLAY REALLY WELL INDIVIDUALLY,

WHATEVER PLAYER WHOPS, YOU WANT TO PLAY REAL WILL INDIVIDUALLY AND YOU DON’T MIND YOUR SCORE NOT COUNTING. >> Arlo: GOOD MORNING FROM TPC MYRTLE BEACH THE 2024 DUSTIN JOHNSON WORLD JUNIOR CHAMPIONSHIP BEGINS TODAY. >> Jerry: THAT’S TREMENDOUS. DUSTIN NEVER WILL FORGET WHERE HE’S FROM. AND WHAT I HE GOT TO WHERE HE IS

TODAY. AND CONTINUES TO CONTINUE TO LEND HIS NAME AND SUPPORT, IF HE WEREN’T PLAYING THIS WEEK HE WOULD BE ON SITE. >> David: HATTON AT 9. THAT’S AN EXCELLENT SHOT. RIGHT OVER THE FLAG STICK. >> Dom: ADRIEN MERONK ON THE 7th TEE. 360 YARDS TO THE FRONT EDGE. FROM WHERE THEY ARE PLAYING

FROM. I THINK THEY EVEN GET PRETTY CLOSE TO THE FRONT EDGE. >> Arlo: ADRIEN MERONK WAS THE CO-OVER NIGHT LEADER AT 8 UNDER PAR, HE’S LEVEL PAR ON THE 7th TEE. BOTTOM LEFT OF THE YOUR SCREENS. >> Dom: IT IF HE SEND THIS IS ONE HIGH IT COULD GET CLOSE.

LEFT OF THE GREEN, MIGHT STILL FIND FAIRWAY. >> Arlo: CHARLES SCHWARTZEL NEXT, LEGION XIII HAVE IT BACK TO A TIE AT 121 UNDER BEING KIERAN VINCENT HAS BIRDIED 18 FOR THEM. >> Dom: CERTAINLY A DIFFERENT STRATEGY FOR SCHWARTZEL, FIRST AND SECOND HOLE USED HIS 3 WOOD OFF THE IDENTITY TEE AND TA

IRON HE JUST WANTS TO FIND THE FAIRWAY. >> Dom: I DON’T KNOW HE HIT THAT SOLIDLY. >> Arlo: WHILST THAT WAS HAPPENING, LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN FOR BIRDIE AT 8. THIS WOULD TIE THE INDIVIDUAL LEAD. ARE DOUBLE BREAKER. >> Dom: JOHN RAHM LOOKS LIKE HE’S LOOKING AT THE GREEN.

OH, HE D OH, BUT IT’S LEFT. >> Arlo: WELL, WE HAVE ONE STROKE SEPARATING THE TOP THREE TEAMS IN THE TEAM COMPETITION. LEGION XIII LED, OF COURSE, OF COURSE BY JUNE RAHM, 21 UNDER PAR, WON THEIR INAUGURAL EVENT IN MEXICO, OUR FIRST EVENT OF THE SEASON. LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN. SKIPPER OF THE SOUTH AFRICAN

STINGER GC. HIS SECOND SHOT INTO 7. HE’S GOT HIMSELF IN TO CONVENTION TUNNEL ARE INDIVIDUAL AND PHIL IS PRODUCING THE GOOD FOR THE HYFLYERS AS WELL IN THIRD PLACE, JUST ONE BACK THAT WAS HIS BIRDIE PUTT AT 1. >> David: THIS IS LIVE, NIEMANN FOR BIRDIE AT 8. HELLO, NIEMANN.

GOLF’S BRIGHTEST STARS WHEN HE BROUGHT HIS SWAGGER TO PROFESSIONAL GOLF. HIS TALENT LEFT AN IMPRESSION ON HIS FELLOW COMPETITORS. WHO ARE VERY EXCITED TO HAVE HIM BACK. ♪ MUSIC PLAYING ♪ >> I AM AS BIG A GOLF FAN AS THEY COME. I HAVE SEEN ANTHONY KIM PLAY. ♪ MUSIC PLAYING ♪

ONE GOOD PUTT FROM THE EDGE, TWO BOGEYS. THOSE ARE SQUARES. >> FIVE FOR TODAY AND SIX OF THE — YEAH, REALLY YOUR ANGLE HERE IS PROBABLY PLAYING — TOP SHELF. >> STINGER LEAD LEGION XIII BY A SHOT. >> I’M NOT SURPRISED IT’S ONLY BEEN FOUR BIRDIES HERE BUT I AM

WAITING FOR THE GREEN TO CLEAR. CERTAINLY IS GOING FOR IT DOWNWIND TODAY. 350 TO THE FRONT. >> YEAH IT WASN’T FULL CYCLE MODE AS HE PUTS IT, THERE. IT WAS POWERFUL, BUT CONTROLLED. >> PLENTY ON IT TO GET THERE. >> YEAH. BACK TO THE GREEN AT 8 AND MERONK FOR PAR.

>> LEFT HIMSELF A NASTY LITTLE RIGHT-TO-LEFTER HERE. >> YEAH, HE HAS. JUST NO MOMENTUM IN THIS GROUP. >> KEVIN NOM IS CLIMBING. HE HAS IT 7 FOR PAR. THE IRON HEADS IN A TIE. A THREE-WAY TIE FOR SECOND PLACE IN THE TEAM COMPETITION. TWO BACK OF STINGER GC.

SPEAKING OF STINGER GC, HERE’S HERECHARL SCHWARTZEL SELL FOR P. >> HE’S HANDLED THESE VERY NICELY TODAY. HE’S HAD A FEW OF THEM. HE HAS A QUICK ROUTINE WITH THIS PUTTER. SCHWARTZEL S DROPS TO 7 UNDER. STINGER’S LEAD NOW JUST ONE. ALL THREE MEMBERS OF THAT GROUPING ARE EVEN PAR ON THE ROUND.

THTHEY WILL HEAD TO TEE AT NUMBR NINE. IT’S A BEAUTY. 498 YARDS. A PARALLEL WITH THE RED SEA. QUITE A BIT AWAY FROM IT, WATER ALL THE WAY DOWN THE RIGHT FOR THE SECOND SHOT FLAG ON THE FRONT RIGHT TODAY, VERY DIFFICULT TO GET AT. MEANTIME WE WILL HEAD BACK TO

THE 7th GREEN AND PHIL FOR BIRDIE. >> AND ADRIAN MERONK WILL BE FIRST ON THE TEE AT 9. >> YEAH, SOMEONE’S GOT TO GET THIS GROUP GOING. >> FIRE ‘EM UP, DON. >> I’LL TRY, JERRY. I’LL GIVE THEM A KICK UP THE BACK SIDE. >> START SPRINTING DOWN THE FAIRWAY OR SOMETHING.

>> DOM, YOU COULDN’T REACH THOSE GUYS BACK SIDE WITH YOUR FOOT? >> I’LL HEAD BUTT HIM IN THE BACK SIDE. ELSEWHERE, CHACARRA IS THREE UNDER PAR FOR HIS ROUND SO FAR. THE FIREBALLS LOOKING TO CLIMB THE PILE AND DEFEND THEIR TITLE AND THAT WAS FOR BIRDIE AT 2. STENSON IS TWO UNDER PAR.

THE MAJESTICS FINISHING THEIR LAST 18 COMPETITIONS THAT. WAS FOR BIRDIE AT 14. BUT THE MAJESTICS DOWN. >> OOSTHUIZEN, LAID UP WITH A 3 WOOD. STRAIGHT DOWN HOLE LOCATIONS ON THE BACK RIGHT. GOT TO CARRY THAT RIDGE. >> LOOKS LIKE A LITTLE UPHILL LIE, SUZANNE. THAT WILL HELP HIM GET MORE SPIN.

>> ABSOLUTELY. I LOVE THIS ACTION ON THE GOLF SWING. SO SIMPLE. JUST A LITTLE SHORT. >> BACK TO THE TEE AT 9. JON RAHM COMING OFF THAT BOGEY. >> SOMETIMES HIS TRANSITION IS VERY QUICK. I THINK THAT WAS THE CASE ON THE TEE SHOT ON THE LAST HOLE.

HE JUST GETS THE HANDLE IN FRONT OF THE BALL, LEAVES THE CLUB FACE OPEN. CAN’T AFFORD TO DO THAT ON THIS TEE SHOT. AND HE DIDN’T. THIS LOOKS — >> ALL CUTTING BACK FROM THE FAIRWAY. WELL FATHERS AND SONS BONDING THROUGH GOLF IS A WONDERFUL TRADITION. DAVID’S DAD WAS ONE OF MILLIONS

TO PASS DOWN TALES OF THE GAME. CHANCES ARE GOOD THAT HIS STORIES ARE WAY BETTER THAN YOURS. THIS IS W.T.F. >> PEOPLE ASK ME. MY FATHER PLAYED WITH THE SAME THREE DOCTORS EVERY SATURDAY AND SUNDAY MORNING. I WAS JUST ABOUT THE AGE, YOU KNOW, GETTING SOPHISTICATED ENOUGH TO KNOW WHAT THESE MEN

WERE TALKING ABOUT AND THEY WOULD TICK THE MICKEY OUT OF EACH OTHER LIKE YOU WOULDN’T BELIEVE. WE WERE WALKING OFF THE FIRST TEE WITH MY DAD’S CLUBS AND MY FATHER TURNED TO THE DOCTOR AND HE SAID DOC I’M HAVING TERRIBLE TROUBLE SLEEPING. YOU NEED TO GIVE ME A SLEEPING PILL.

HE SAID I DON’T LIKE TO DO THAT RIGHT OFF THE BAT. THEY CAN BE ADDICTIVE. HAVE YOU TRIED EVERYTHING? COUNTING SHEEP WHICH IS ONE OF THE THINGS THEY DO WITH SHEEP IN IRELAND. MY FATHER SAYS YES, I TRIED EVERYTHING. YOU NEED TO GIVE ME THE SLEEPING PILL. THE DOCTOR SAID, TONIGHT WHEN

YOU PUT YOUR HEAD ON THE PILLOW, IMAGINE YOU ARE OUT HERE ON THE FIRST TEE AND HIT A SHOT HERE, A SHOT THERE, A BUNKER SHOT, A PUTT ARE. BY THE TIME YOU GET TO THE TURN, YOU WILL BE ASLEEP. SO MY FATHER SAYS OH, ALL RIGHT I’LL GIVE IT A TRY.

THE NEXT MORNING, THE DOCTOR TURNED TO MY DAD AND SAID BILLY, HOW DID YOU SLEEP LAST NIGHT? MY FATHER SAID NO NOT GREAT. BUT I PLAYED REALLY WELL. HE SAID HOW DID YOU GO? WELL I HAD MY TEE SHOT ON THE FIRST, SIX IRON ON THE FRONT EDGE OF THE PUTT.

I CHIPPED IN FOR EAGLE. I GET ON THE THIRD TEE, I SKY MY TEE SHOT AND IT ENDS UP HALFWAY DOWN THE HILL. I MADE THE LONGEST PUTT I’VE EVER MADE IN MY LIFE. NOW I’M THINKING TO MYSELF AT 9 OR 10 YEARS OLD MY FATHER’S GOING TO BREAK THE COURSE RECORD

AND THE DOCTOR SAID WHAT HAPPENED THEN? MY FATHER SAYS WELL I WAS AWAKE ALL (BLEEP) NIGHT LOOKING FOR THE BALL. THAT WAS THE DAY I LEARNED MY FATHER WAS FUNNY AND I LEARNED HOW TO CURSE. >> I TELL YOU THAT WOULD STICK LONG IN YOUR MEMORY. >> YEAH.

MY FATHER ONCE DROVE DOWN THE SLIP WAY AND HE GOT TICKETED BY THE COAST GUARD. >> MEMORIES FROM YOUR CHILDHOOD. DID YOUR DAD GET YOU INTO GOLF AT A YOUNG AGE? >> HE DID. MY DAD GREW UP WITH A PASSION FOR THE GAME. WE DIDN’T HAVE A LOT OF RESOURCES.

HE DIDN’T GROW UP WITH A LOT OF RESOURCES. HE ONCE USED TO SHAG BALLS FOR THE FIRST TOMMY ARMOUR. THE SILVER SCOT, AS IT WERE. HE IMPARTED ON ME THE LOVE FOR THE GAME AND IMPARTED ON ME THE AWFUL TEMPER I HAD ON THE GOLF COURSE BUT MINE COMPARED TO HIS

WAS SO SUBTLE. >> DUSTIN JOHNSON TEEING IT OFF. WHO WERE YOUR INSPIRATIONS DOM AND SUANN? DOM FIRST. >> WELL MY FATHER AND I STARTED GOLF THE EXACT SAME DAY. >> WOW. >> YEAH. OUR NEIGHBOR, WE MOVED TO ENGLAND AND I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE GAME OF GOLF WAS.

NINE YEARS OLD OUR NEIGHBOR KNOCKED ON THE DOOR AND SAID WOULD YOU LIKE TO GO AND PLAY GOLF? MY DAD SAID SURE. MY NEIGHBOR GAVE ME A SET OF HICKORY SHAFTED CLUBS. WE BOTH GOT ADDICTED TO IT REALLY QUICKLY. >> I HAVE A SIMILAR STORY TO DOM. PERHAPS A FEW YEARS LATER BUT

YEAH, MY DAD AND I, MY WHOLE FAMILY STARTED TOGETHER. WANTED TO DO SOMETHING AS AN OUTDOOR SPORT AND SPEND SOME TIME ON THE WEEKEND. FOUR OF NEWS THE FAMILY SO IT MADE A PERFECT GROUP TO GO OUT AND MAY NINE HOLES. YEAH. WE ALL STARTED TOGETHER AND I

JUST GOT ADDICTED TO IT. DAD AND MOM SUPPORTED ME ALL THE WAY THROUGH. IT’S BEEN SWELL SINCE. >> MY DAD WAS A GOLF NUT. SINGLE DIGIT HANDICAPPER. WORKED VERY HARD AT HIS GAME. THAT DIDN’T RUB OFF ON ME. BUT HIS LOVE OF SOCCER DID. HE DIDN’T MISS A SINGLE GAME

THAT I PLAYED AND I MUST HAVE PLAYED 400 ODD GAMES BUT I THINK HE SAW THE TALENT LEVEL THAT I HAD AND DECIDED THAT HE NEEDED TO BE THE MANAGER OF THE TEAM, WHICH ASSURED THAT I WAS PICKED EVERY WEEK. AND THANK HIM GREATLY FOR. >> MY FATHER ACTUALLY NEVER

PLAYED ANOTHER ROUND OF GOLF AFTER THE FIRST DAY I BEAT HIM. >> REALLY? >> BECAUSE — MY JOB SHEER DONE OR THROUGH SHEER HUMILIATION? >> HE NEVER HAD THE OPPORTUNITIES HE WAS GIVING TO ME. HE LIVED VICARIOUSLY THROUGH MINE. UNFORTUNATELY PASSED AWAY BEFORE HE GOT TO SEE ME SIT IN A CHAIR

AND B.S. THE REST OF MY GOLF LIFE. THE PROUDEST MOMENT FOR ME WAS MY SON PLAYED FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME. >> MY OLD MAN BY THE WAY WILL BE BACK IN THE EAST MIDLANDS OF ENGLAND WITH HIS MAJESTICS HAT ON. >> AND LOOK AT LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN. JUST SHORT.

BACK TO THE 9th THEN AND ADRIAN MERONK. JUST MISSED THE FAIRWAY. >> NINER COMING DOWN ON THE — >> IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO HEAR ADRIAN MERONK’S STORY HOW HE PICKED UP THE GAME IN POLAND OF ALL PLACES. HE’S INSPIRING A LOT OF POLES TO PICK UP THE GAME, THAT’S FOR SURE.

PICK UP GOLD CLUBS IF HE MANAGES A WIN THIS WEEK. >> OH, THAT’S A TERRIFIC SHOT FROM THAT ANGLE. >> WACO NIEMA, N HAS SOLE POSSESSION OF THE LEAD. HE’S AT NINE UNDER PAR. A TIMELY BIRDIE FOR HIM. HE’S TWO UNDER FOR HIS ROUND SO FAR. TOP OF THE PYLON AND THE FORMER

SOLO LEADER, JON RAHM. >> SECOND SHOT AT NINE. >> WITH A PITCHING WEDGE. >> A FABULOUS SHOT THERE. THE KICK IN THE BUTT WORKED, DOM. >> YEAH. >> PATRICK REID WITH HIS SECOND SHOT AT NUMBER 12. WELL THE LIV GOLF PLUS APP IS FILLED WITH GREAT CONTENT AS WE HAVE BEEN DESCRIBING INCLUDING

AN INCREDIBLE AND INFORMATIVE SERIES OF LESSONS FROM THE BEST PLAYERS IN THE WORLD. >> HEY G GUYS WELCOME TO MY LIVV LESSON. >> IF YOU ARE LIKE ME AND MISS FAIRWAYS THIS IS WHEN THE CREATIVITY COMES OUT. >> FOLK OUNCE THAT TARGET. >> THAT’S WHAT I’M FOCUSED ON. >> PAY THE MAN.

>> FOR ME, I JUST WANT TO MAKE IT SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE. >> TEMPER IS ONE THING YOU NEED TO KEEP AN EYE ON. >> SMITH HAS TAKEN COMPLETE CONTROL HERE. >> I LIKE TO AIM THE PUTTER. MAKE SURE THAT’S PERFECT. THEN I TAKE MY STANCE, GIVE IT ONE GOOD LOOK AT THE HOLE.

AND HIT A GOOD PUTT. >> HOUDINI WITH THE FLAT STICK. >> GOLF BALL. HERE WE GO. >> BRYSON DDECHAMBEAU. HITTING IT REALLY FAR. >> TRY TO GET A LITTLE PSYCO WITH IT. >> LET YOUR BODY FREE UP. LET THINGS JUST MOVE MORE. DON’T FEEL LIKE YOU ARE RESTRICTED.

YOU CAN DO THAT — YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY TO BETTER GOLF. >> IN ADDITION TO L IV LESSONS ENJOY TOURNAMENT ACTION, ANOTHER ROUND, DOWNLOAD THE APP NOW. JUST SCAN THE QR CODE. >> WACKO ON THE TEE AT 11. STRAIGHT INTO THE BREEZE. >> HE’S A GLASGOW MAN.

>> WHEN IT’S LEFT OF THE HOLE, THE IDEA STARTING LINE WITH HOLDING SPEED. ABOVE THAT BUT SOFT ENOUGH, IT WILL GO. THAT WAS WAY TOO SOFT FOR MERONK, ALL OF A SUDDEN STRUGGLING TO FIND THE SPEED THAT HE HAD DIALED IN SO WELL YESTERDAY. HERBERT FOR BIRDIE AT 12.

THIS IS A MOMENT AGO. BACK TO 6 INNED UNDER PAR FOR TE AUSSIE. I JUST CHATTED TO CHARL SCHWARTZ ON THE WAY TO THE TEE. HE SAID HE HASN’T PLAYED WITH JON RAHM FOR A WHILE. HE CAN’T BELIEVE HOW FAR LEFT HE AIMS WITH HIS TEE SHOTS WITH HIS DRIVER.

HE SAYS HE USES AS MUCH ROOM AS POSSIBLE. >> THAT WAS A TERRIFIC SECOND SHOT HE HIT. HE NEEDS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE. CHARL SCHWARTZEL SELL BACK TO WITHIN ONE OF THE LEADER. THAT GIVES STINGER GC A LEAD. HERE’S LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN. >> GO! >> BACK TO THE NINTH GREEN AND

JON RAHM WITH AN OPPORTUNITY TO TIE THE LEAD. RAMBO AND WACO TIED 27 HOLES DOWN. 27 TO PLAY AT LIV GOLF JEDDAH. NINE TO PLAY ON SUPER SATURDAY. >> ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THIS PART OF THE WORLD. WHEREVER YOU ARE WATCHING AROUND THE WORLD, WELCOME BACK IN LIVE TO THE BROADCAST STUDIO.

MYSELF AND ARLO. WELCOME IF YOU ARE WATCHING ON THE CW IN NORTH AMERICA AS WELL. THE INDIVIDUAL RACE LOOKS LIKE IT’S GOING ALL THE WAY. RAHM AND NIEMANN TIDE. STING WEATHER THAT TWO-STROKE LEAD AT THE MOMENT. THE HYFLYERS LOOKING FOR A FIRST PODIUM SINCE OUR INAUGURAL SEASON. THEY ARE IN SECOND PLACE AND

LEGION XIII ARE TIED THERE AS WELL. AND THE IRONHEADS ARE HAVING A REALLY GOOD RUN. KOZUMA AND KEVIN NA PLAYING VERY GOOD INDEED. LET’S SEND IT OUTSIDE. SUEANN, WHAT STRUCK YOU IN THE OPENING NINE HOLES? >> AT THE TOP OF THE SHOW I SPOKE TO JOAQUIN NIEMANN. HIS GAME’S COMING TOGETHER

PERFECTLY AND HIS SELF-BELIEF IS UP. HE REALLY TRULY BELIEVES HE’S ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS IN THE WORLD BUT SOMETHING ELSE HE SAID TO ME IS HOW HE IS GROWING AND MANAGING WITH THE GAME. HE HAS GROWN SO MUCH IN THE LAST YEAR, SHOWING A LOT OF MATURITY

ON THE GOLF COURSE WITH THE WAY HE MANAGES THE GOLF COURSE IS JUST WHAT IS COMING THROUGH TODAY AS I HAVE WATCHED HIM ON THE FRONT NINE. REALLY STEADY SLOW GOLF IN THE FIRST EIGHT HOLES AND BIRDIES 8 AND BIRDIES 10 AND MAKING OPPORTUNITIES FOR HIMSELF. HE JUST NEEDS TO KEEP PLAYING

PATIENTLY AS HE GOES NEAR THE BACK NINE. ESPECIALLY WITH THE WINDY CONDITIONS. >> SEE, DAVID, I GAVE MY HEAD BUTT AND MADE BIRDIES ON THAT HOLE. IT’S ALL ABOUT ME OUT HERE, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT, SCORING’S NOT PROLIFIC TODAY AND I DON’T KNOW THE REASON WHY. THE WIND HAS BEEN IN THE SAME

DIRECTION ALL DAY. YESTERDAY IN THE MORNING OR EARLY IN THE ROUND IT WAS CHANGING ALL OVER THE PLACE. SO I’M A LITTLE BIT SURPRISED THAT SCORING IS NOT BETTER. IN JON RAHM’S CASE HE’S ONLY HIT TWO FAIRWAYS TODAY AND SHORT SIGHTED HIMSELF A COUPLE OF TIMES. THAT’S PROBABLY THE REASON HE’S

NOT MAKING AS MANY BIRDIES AS HE DID YESTERDAY. >> WELL JOAQUIN NIEMANN CARDED A 63 YESTERDAY AND HE HAS THE LEAD ON NINE UNDER SO FAR TODAY. VERY SOLID. HE’S JUST HITTING HIS STRIDE WITH TWO BIRDIES IN THE LAST THREE HOLES. THAT WAS HIS TEE SHOT AT 8 WHICH

WOULD LEAD TO THE FIRST OF THOSE BIRDIES. THIS WAS AN EXCELLENT PAR PUTT AT THE 9th WHEN HE REALLY NEEDED IT. AND THEN MOMENTARILY, HE HAD THE OUTRIGHT LEAD AFTER BIRDIEING THE 10th. THIS WAS HIS SECOND SHOT TO SET IT UP. >> DAVID, JOAQUIN PLAYING GREAT BUT WHAT I’M NOTICING BASED ON

THE LEAD ARE BOARD IS BECAUSE THE LEADERS HAVEN’T GONE CRAZY, THE ONES WHO STARTED THE DAY WE HAVE A LOT MORE GUYS WOULD COULD WIN THIS. >> MICKELSON, GOOCH, KEEP YOUR EYE ON LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN. THE WAY HE’S SWINGING THE GOLF CLUB, NOBODY MAKES THE GAME LOOK PRETTIER WHEN HE SWINGS WELL

WHICH IS NEARLY ALWAYS. >> SO MANY OF THE TEAMS ARE BEING LED BY THEIR CAPTAINS. TORQUE LED BY JOAQUIN NIEMANN. HE TALKED ABOUT HIM FEELING LIKE HE’S ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS IN THE GAME. HE GOT THE VALIDATION FROM AUGUSTA NATIONAL BY GETTING THAT SPECIAL INVITE. DO YOU SENSE ANY DIFFERENCE IN

HIM BECAUSE OF THAT GROWING CONFIDENCE WHEN HE PERFORMS OUT THERE? >> YEAH, JERRY. ABSOLUTELY. WALKING WITH HIM FOR NINE HOLES, I GOT TO TALK WITH HIM A FAIR AMOUNT LAST YEAR AS WELL THE DIFFERENCE I CAN TELL IS THE WAY HE WALKS. HE HAS THAT EXTRA CONFIDENCE. YOU CAN CERTAINLY TELL.

IT’S COMING THROUGH IN HIS GAME AS WELL. HOW AGGRESSIVE HE PLAYS OFF THE TEE AND ATTACKING THOSE PINS WHEN IT’S SMART TO DO SO. THAT’S WHY AS I SPOKE ABOUT THE MATURITY COMES THROUGH AS I’VE SEEN TODAY SO FAR. >> ALL RIGHT. WELL IT DOESN’T SEEM LIKE JOAQUIN’S THE GUY TO GET

INTIMIDATED BUT IF YOU WERE TO GET INTIMIDATED, THIS MAN CARESY A BIG SHADOW. JON RAHM. THIS OUT AT SIX, HIS THIRD SHOT. GORGEOUS BOB JUST A COUPLE OF FEET AND THEN OF COURSE JUST MOMENTS AGO, THE PAR FOUR 9th WE SAW THE APPROACH THAT LED TO ALMOST A TAP-IN BIRDIE. >> YEAH.

THIS IS A TOUGH SHOT HERE, TOO, COMING PARALLEL TO THE WATER. AND DOM, YOU MENTIONED UP UNTIL YOU GAVE THE HEAD BUTT ON THE LAST HOLE TO GET THE GUYS GOING THAT THERE WAS NO REAL MOMENTUM IN THAT LAST GROUP. HAVE THE CONDITIONS PLAYED A FACTOR IN THAT IN TERMS OF THE

WAY THE COURSE IS PLAYING TODAY? >> YEAH ARE THE PINS TIGHTER, CLOSER TO THE EDGES OF THE GREENS? >> NOT NOTICEABLY HARDER THAN YESTERDAY TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, DAVID. YEAH A COUPLE OF TOUGH ONES HERE AND THERE BUT THERE WERE QUITE A FEW TUCKED ONES YESTERDAY. THE WIND IS IN THE SAME

DIRECTION. THE GUYS SHOULD BE USED TO IT. THIS IS THE WIND THAT BLOWS EVERY DAY PRETTY MUCH IN THIS DIRECTION AND THE ENTIRE FIELD HAS PLAYED HERE PR PRETTY MUCH BEFORE. I THINK THE GREENS ARE FIRMING UP A LITTLE BIT. BUT IN JON RAHM’S CASE, IT’S INCREDIBLE HOW MUCH SPIN GETS ON

THE BALL. HE HIT THAT PITCHING WEDGE, LANDS AND IT GIVES HIMSELF A SHORT BIRDIE PUTT. >> IS THIS A MOMENT AGO AT 11. LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN TO TIE THE LEAD AS IF ON CUE, DAVID. STINGER LEAD THE WAY. HE’S JUST EXTENDED THE ADVANTAGE. HERE ARE THEIR HIGHLIGHTS. THEY GOT OFF TO AN ABSOLUTE FLIER.

GRACE TEED OFF AT THE PAR 4 FIFTH. THIS IS HIS SECOND SHOT. THAT’S ALL HE NEEDED. WONDERFUL EAGLE TO START FOR BRENDAN GRACE. CHARL SCHWARTZEL SELL PARRED THE LAST FIVE. THAT WAS HIS BIRDIE AT 2. AND LOUIS TIED FOR THE INDIVIDUAL LEAD NOW. THAT WAS HIS SECOND SHOT AT 7.

STINGER WENT UNCLARK TRICKLY POOR BY THE GRADE STANDARDS IN LAS VEGAS. LOOK AT THAT RESPONSE. MUST HAVE BEEN A COLLECTIVE KICK UP THE BACK SIDE, MAYBE FOUR DUNCE HATS WHO KNOWS BUT THEY LEAD BY THREE. WHAT A COMEBACK. >> THE GOOD THING IS IF YOU HAVE

TO WEAR THE DUNCE CAP AND WALKED THROUGH THE HOTEL, YOU WOULD FIT IN. WE WERE IN VEGAS. NOT UNUSUAL TO SEE THERE. DO WE GET THE STEN’ OF OUR FIRST-EVER TEAM PLAYOFF. >> I DON’T HAVE THE WHIFF IN MY NOSTRILS ABOUT IT. IT’S A POSSIBILITY, BUT I PUT

THIS ON TO THE CO CURSE OF THE COURT REPORTER. >> AND PHIL’S HYFLYERS HAVEN’T BEEN ON THE PODIUM SINCE CHICAGO. IT’S BEEN A STRUGGLE FOR THEM. BUT THEY ARE WELL POSITIONED AT THE HALFWAY STAGE, AREN’T THEY. >> THEY SURE ARE. THIS GUY IS JUST DRIVING THE BALL SO BEAUTIFULLY.

>> I THINK DAVID IF PHIL CAN’T INSPIRE THE TEAM BY PLAYING WELL, THEN NOBODY CAN. THE OTHER GUYS WILL SEE THEIR CAPTAIN’S GOT IT TOGETHER AND MIGHT JUST DRAW A LITTLE INSPIRATION FROM THAT. >> BRYSON NEXT. >> HE SAID ON A PODCAST, JERRY, THAT HE HAS FOUND A SET OF CLUBS

THAT HE CAN FEEL SO CONFIDENT SWINGING EVERY SINGLE DAY. HE SAID SOMETHING ON THE DRIVING RANGE, I FEEL I CAN GO REALLY LOW HERE. >> AND THAT DRIVER IS A BIG PART OF IT. WE SEE BRYSON WITH THE 194. INITIAL BALL SPEED, WHICH IS BEST OF THE DAY.

AS IT TURNS OUT, NO SURPRISE. >> THE CONTEXT OF THE HYFLYERS HE’S FOUR UNDER PAR TODAY, TRINGALE. HE’S SIX UNDER AFTER TAPPING THAT HOME FOR BIRDIE. >> MERONK IS WAY LEFT. OFF THE 10th TEE AND HE’S — OH, HE’S FOUND AN OASIS. LOOK. >> YEAH, THE WIND’S COMING OFF

THE LEFT TO TOUCH IT. 7 THERE. >> EVERYONE NEEDS A SCOTTISH CADDY. AT LEAST ONCE IN THEIR CAREER. >> YOU’VE GOT 96. 96 IS PUT YOUR BACK EDGE. JUST PLAY FOR THE MIDDLE, MATE. A LITTLE LEFT. >> THESE ARE TOUGH SHOTS ANY TIME YOU HAVE TO GET THE BALL UP

HIGH FROM THE DESERT LIES. IT’S REALLY EASY TO CATCH IT JUST A LITTLE BIT THICK AND THE BALL COMES OUT, POOF. WATER CERTAINLY DIDN’T COLLECT THERE FROM ALL THE RAIN WE HAVE HAD RECENTLY. >> NO. >> THAT’S ALL IN ALL A PRETTY GOOD SHOT. >> OH, JUST A MOMENT AGO, RICHARD BLAND.

DICKY B.! BIRDIE. >> YES. HE JUST KEEPS GOING AND GOING AND GOING. PREPARE FOR BLANDAMONIUM. >> BACK TO RAHM AT 10. LOOKS LIKE IT MIGHT BE SITTING DOWN JUST A LITTLE BIT. >> HE’S GOT PLENTY OF GREEN TO WORK WITH. YOU CAN RUN THIS UP THERE, UP TO THAT BACK PLATFORM.

>> VERY WELL JUDGED. HE’S TEACHABLE. FOLLOWING YOUR INSTRUCTIONS THERE. KOZUMA HIS THIRD AT 13. >> LOOKS IMPRESSIVE. 6 UNDER. WELL WE FIRST GOT TO WATCH HIM PLAY IN TERMS OF ANY LIV FORMAT WITH THE PROMOTIONS EVENT IN ABU DHABI. SO PATIENT HE WAS IN THE PLAYOFF. THREE GUYS FOR TWO SPOTS IN THE

LIV GOLF LEAGUE. IT WAS PRETTY AWESOME. EMOTIONAL, AS WELL, THROUGH THE INTERPRETER WHEN WE INTERVIEWED HIM AFTERWARDS. NOW CHARL SCHWARTZEL HIS SECOND ATTEMPT. I’M NOT SURE YOU WANT THE UPHILL LIE HERE, DAVID, WITH ALL THAT GREEN. >> NO. NO, IT’S EASIER OFF A FLAT LIE. YOU DRIVE IT IN LOW AND LET IT

RUN UP THERE. PRETTY GOOD. WELL LOUIS HAS FOUND THE DESERT HERE. >> HE HAS, DAVID. IT’S IN THE WETTER SAND AREA SO IT’S PRETTY FIRM. HIT IT LIKE A BUNKER SHOT. CATCH IT CLEAN. SPOKE TO HIS CADDY NICKNAMED DUTCHY. SOMETHING I NOTICED THAT HE’S BEEN DOING DIFFERENTLY THIS TIME

AROUND IS HIS PRACTICE TAKE AWAY IN HIS BACK SWING, IF YOU NOTICE, HE DOES A LITTLE BACKSWING. HE’S TRYING TO TAKE THAT CLUB MORE ON PLANE AT THE START. APPARENTLY HE’S BEEN STARTING IT TOO MUCH ON THE INSIDE. HE’S BEEN WORKING ON IT IN THE LAST THREE WEEKS MANY WORKING

OUT NICELY FOR HIM. HIS BALL STRIKING IS PHENOMENAL TODAY. BETTER THAN THE TEE SHOT. NOW HE HAS A NINE IRON INTO THIS FRONT HOLE LOCATION. DID NOT LIKE THAT. >> MERONK FROM JUST OVER THE BACK EDGE AT 10. LEFT HIMSELF A LITTLE TESTER. >> BACK TO THE 12th. JOAQUIN, TWO CLUBS AGAIN.

>> BECAUSE IT’S THERE. >> GAP WEDGE, THAT LIES ALL RIGHT. JUST SLIGHTLY ABOVE HIS FEET WHICH MIGHT HELP WITH TODAY’S WIND. STRONG OFF THE LEFT. SAYS HE FEELS A LOT STRONGER. HE’S GAINED A LOT OF SPEED IN THE OFF SEASON. SWITCHED UP HIS WORKOUT WITH HIS TRAINER ANDREW CUMMINGS.

NEEDS TO HOLD THE LINE. >> TO THE GREEN AT 10. >> YEAH JON AS OVER HIS PUCK. I THINK HE STARTED TALKING TO CHARL, AHH, HE’S STANDING PERHAPS ON CHARL’S MARKER. IT LOOKS LIKE HE’S GOING TO PUTT FIRST WHICH WILL GIVE JOHN A LITTLE BIT OF HELP. >> JUST OUTSIDE THE RIGHT LIP.

NEVER STARTED IT ON LINE. >> BRANDON GRACE, HIS SECOND AT 15. PULLED ONE OUT TO START THE DAY FROM THE FAIRWAY AND HE IS ABSOLUTELY POSING ON THE IRON SHOTS. >> MM-HMM. >> NOW RAHM TO GET BACK ON TOP SOLO. >> SIMILAR PUTT TO SCHWARTZEL. HE SAW IT DID BREAK.

SCHWARTZEL STARTED IT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HOLE. THIS HAS TO START JUST OUTSIDE THE RIGHT LIP. CAN’T GIVE SOMEBODY HIS CALIBER A FREE READ AND THINK THEY ARE GOING TO MISS IT. >> YEAH. THEY WILL SCARE IT EVERY TIME. BRYSON DECHAMBEAU, HIS SECOND SHOT. BACK TO THE DAD TEAM,

ANOTHER PLAYER WHO WAS INTRODUCED TO THE GAME FROM HIS FATHER, THE LATE JOHN DECHAMBEAU PLAYED COLLEGE GOLF AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA. AS IT RUNS IN THE GENES, HIS FATHER WAS A VERY, VERY LONG HITTER IN HIS DAY. NOW OOSTHUIZEN. >> WELL THIS PUTT’S GOING TO

BREAK A FAIR BIT TO THE LEFT IN THE FIRST 12, 15 FEET. IT’S ALL ABOUT SPEED. GOING TO GET THROUGH THAT FRINGE. THAT’S A BIG HOP. MERONK MADE HIS PAR. HERE’S ANTHONY KIM. HE STEADIED THE SHIP WITH THREE CONSECUTIVE PARS. WELCOME BACK A.K. ALWAYS LOOKED LIKE HE WAS HAVING THE MOST FUN

ON THE COURSE. ALWAYS EASY TO ROOT FOR AND HE IS GOING TO TAKE TIME TO GET BACK TO ANYWHERE CLOSE TO THE PLAYER THAT HE WAS. BUT THE BEAUTY OF THE SITUATION HERE IS THAT HE HAS THAT TIME. HE WILL BE THE WILD CARD ONE OF

THE TWO WILD CARDS IN THE LIV GOLF LEAGUE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE 2024 SEASON. >> THERE’S GOING TO BE SUCH A HUGE CURIOSITY FACTOR MOVING FORWARD WITH HOW CLOSE ANTHONY OR HOW CLOSE IF NOT ALL THE WAY BACK ANTHONY KIM GETS TO BEING THE PLAYER THAT HE ONCE WAS.

IT’S NOT OUT OF THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY TO THINK HE CAN GET BACK, BUT IT’S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN OVERNIGHT. >> BRYSON ON A SIMILAR LINE TO LOUIS’ PUTT. A GOOD READ. LIKES TO PUTT HIS PUTTS TWO FEET PAST. >> 153 YARDS AND JON RAHM’S HITTING A 7 IRON.

>> IT’S GOING TO BE TAKING SOMETHING OFF THAT. >> A LOT. THAT’S ONLY OFF THE GREEN. >> SAME THING AS EARLIER. >> NOT A GREAT SHOT. >> WHERE AT THAT HOLE IS PLACED TODAY IS SUCH A TINY TARGET EFFECTIVELY. ANTHONY KIM FOR BIRDIE. TO THE GREEN AT 12 AND JOAQUIN

NIEMANN TO TIE THE LEAD AGAIN. >> YEAH, I THOUGHT THAT WENT MAYBE JUST TOO FAR BUT YEAH, IT’S VERY CLOSE TO THAT. >> REALLY NOT GOING TO BE THAT MUCH MOVEMENT. FAIRLY FLAT WHERE HE IS. I CAUGHT HIM ON ABOUT TUESDAY OR WEDNESDAY THIS WEEK AND TALKED ABOUT HIS PUTTING.

I SAID YOU’VE BEEN PUTTING SO WELL. HE SAID YEAH I’VE BEEN WORKING ON JUST GETTING MY LEFT ARM A LITTLE MORE LOPPED, LEADING MORE WITH HIS LEFT ARM WITH HIS PUTTING COACH ERIC. LOOK AT HOW SIMPLE THIS IS, IT DOESN’T TAKE THAT MUCH TIME ONCE HE GETS OVER THE GOLF BALL, ONE

LOOK AND HIT. >> YES. JOAQUIN NIEMANN IS BOGEY-FREE SO FAR TODAY. HE’S THREE UNDER FOR HIS ROUND E’S 10 UNDER OVERALL. IT’S JOAQUIN AND RAMBO AT THE TYPE OF THE PILE ONCE MORE. MERONK IS ON THE TEE AT 11. >> STRAIGHT IN AT 12. SAY, YEAH. >> JERRY, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.

THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL PAR 3. ONLY 153 YARDS BUT YOU HAVE TO BE SO PRECISE. CAN’T AFFORD TO GO LEFT AND TOO FAR TO THE RIGHT AND YOU ARE OFF THE GREEN ALSO. >> YEAH. FLAG LOOKS LIKE IT’S ON THE TOP OF A HOOD OF A CAR. >> YEAH. IT IS.

OH, THAT COULD COME DOWN. >> THAT’S THE ONE SAVING GRACE, THAT BACKSTOP RIGHT THERE. >> GO! >> DIDN’T QUITE DO WHAT IT WAS TOLD. LEISHMAN OF RIPPER GC. A NICE BIRDIE PUTT ON THE 5th FOR BIG LEISH. K ONE UNDER PAR FOR THE COMPETITION. A MAN IN THE INTERNATIONAL

SERIES, THAT WAS FOR BIRDIE AT ONE. >> THAT’S PETER ULHLEIN WAY DOWN THERE ON THE 8th AND WELL, AID LIKE TO SAY I SAW THAT ONE COMING BUT I DIDN’T. >> LET’S JOIN PHIL MICKELSON AT 10. SECOND SHOT HERE FROM THE ROUGH. >> THAT IS BEAUTIFULLY DONE. SHOULD GET ONE BACK THERE.

>> AND IF YOU DID SO, THAT WILL CLOSE THE HYFLYERS TO WITHIN ONE OF STINGER GC AND HERE’S THE STINGER COUNTS IN AT LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN WHO HIMSELF IS JUST ONE BACK OF THE LEADERS. >> TEEING UP MORE ON THE LEFT SIDE INDICATING HE’S GOING TO DRAW ONE IN, RIDING THE WIND

HERE ON 13th. THAT IS STRIPED. >> BEFORE LOUIS, JOAQUIN NIEMANN. >> AT 1 # 1, SOME SHOT INTO THE BANK IN FRONT OF HIM? IS HE GOING TO THROW IT ALL THE WAY UP? >> YEAH HE STILL HAS ROOM TO WORK WITH. HE CAN THROW TO THE CREST OF THE HILL.

HE STILL HAS 20, 25 FEET TO WORK WITH. I DON’T IMAGINE HE WILL THROW IT INTO THE BANK. >> SURE LOOKS LIKE HE IS. >> OH, HE DID. YEAH, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. AND I THINK HE CHOSE THE RIGHT OPTION. >> YEAH. >> JASON KOKRAK, A FEW MINUTES

AGO GOT HIM TO 7 UNDER PAR. HE TIED FIFTH IN VEGAS A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO ON NINE UNDER PAR MANY HE WAS IN THE MIX UNTIL THE CLOSING STAGES. ONE OF THE EXCELLENT PERFORMANCES SO FAR BY JASON KOKRAK. >> HERE’S AN AWKWARD SPOT TO SAY THE LEAST FOR CHARL SCHWARTZEL.

GRIPPING IT ALL THE WAY DOWN ON THE METAL. SO HARD TO GET THAT ON LINE. THAT’S WHEN YOU WANT TO BE LEFT HANDED. >> GOT A LITTLE CLOUD COVER MOVING IN HERE. THAT’S — I THINK THAT’S A FIRST. >> CLOUD? OH, LOOK YES. A CLOUD. >> JUST TO CONFIRM, WE DON’T

STOP PLAY, DO WE? >> BACK TO 11. >> WHILE CHARL GETS READY, HERE’S STEELE OF THE HYFLYERS. THEY ARE WITHIN ONE OF STINGER GC AND AT THE MOMENT, PHIL BEING LEVEL PAR FOR THE DAY, HIS SCORE DOESN’T COUNT. STEEL TWO UNDER. OGLE FREE FOUR UNDER. SO FAR SO GOOD FOR THE HYFLYERS

WHO ARE 10 UNDER PAR COLLECTIVELY TODAY. THE BIG MOVERS. AND THAT KEEPS STINGER ONE AHEAD AND KEEPS SCHWARTZEL TWO BEHIND. >> THAT IS A WORLD — AN OLYMPIC UP AND DOWN FROM THE SPOT HE WAS IN. AND A VERY BIG FIST BUMP FROM CHARL SCHWARTZEL. YOU DON’T USUALLY SEE THAT IN

THE MIDDLE OF THE SECOND ROUND. HE WANTS TO PLAY WELL SO BADLY, DOES CHARL. >> HE ONLY HAD ONE TOP 10 LAST YEAR. 9th IN ADELAIDE. HIS NEXT BEST WAS 20th. AND HE’S A MUCH BETTER PLAYER THAN THAT. HE HAS ONE OF THE BEST SWINGS OUT HERE. ADRIAN MERONK, SIMILAR PUTT.

MAYBE A LITTLE BIT QUICKER. MORE STRAIGHT DOWN THE HILL. >> TO THE 13th. YOU ARE WATCHING LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN. >> I AM INDEED, ARLO. JOAQUIN JUST OUT DROVE LOUIS BY SOME 32 YARDS. LOUIS IS NOT THE LONGEST BUT CERTAINLY NOT THE SHORTEST. AND JUST SPEAKS OF HOW MUCH DISTANCE

JOAQUIN HAS GAINED IN THE OFF SEASON. AS I MENTIONED BEFORE, HE’S WORKED SO HARD. GAINED MORE SPEED. >> RAHM MADE HIS PAR AT 11. >> OR THE 13 WHICH PLAYED THE HARDs YESTERDAY. NOT THAT HARD FOR JOAQUIN WITH JUST A WEDGE. BUT NOW LOUIS, BALL SLIGHTLY BELOW HIS FEET, WENT OFF THE RIGHT.

SEE THAT TAKE AWAY. STARTED MORE ON PLANE IN THE FIRST FEET. FOOT. PARDON ME. I NEED BEEN TO TEACH ME SOME ENGLISH. >> HYFLYERS TRINGALE, BEHIND THE GREEN. >> BEAUTIFUL FLOP SHOT THERE. >> BACK TO NIEMANN AT 13. >> DOWNHILL LIE FOR JOAQUIN. HE HAS NO MORE THAN A SAND

WEDGE, I WOULD IMAGINE. WHOLE LOCATION TODAY FRONT AND LEFT. BIT OF A BACK STOP JUST PAST THAT PIN. AND THE WIND JUST CALMED DOWN A FAIR BIT. AND NOW IT’S PICKING BACK UP AGAIN. >> HEY CAN YOU GUYS JUST GET THAT THING OUTTA HERE? GET THAT THING OUTTA HERE.

>> YOU CAN’T SPEAK TO ALF LIKE THAT, CAN YOU? >> THAT’S HOW HE GOT THE NICKNAME, ISN’T IT DAVID? >> YEAH. ANNOYING LITTLE FELLOW. >> IT’S HARD FOR OUR DRONE PILOTS. ESPECIALLY IN WINDY CONDITIONS. >> 32, 33 SHOT. PERFECT. >> LOOKING TO LAND THIS 10 FEET BELOW THE HOLE. ONE BOUNCE.

NEEDS TO GO. >> JON RAHM ON THE TEE OF 12. THE HARD FADE. >> THE CENTER OF THE BUNKER. >> A HARD FADE INTO THE SAND. >> WELL IT’S PRETTY MUCH AT THE TOP OF THE PILE ON IS STILL NIEMANN AND RAHM WHO LEAD THE WAY. >> HERE’S D.J. ON THE 11th

TEE. >> OH, MY GOLLY. >> OOH, THAT’S ON THE SHORT SIDE AND, DEPENDING ON WHERE IT ENDED UP IN THAT BUNKER, THAT MAY BE VERY AWKWARD. >> THAT WAS FOR PAR 4 ANTHONY KIM. ELSEWHERE MATT JONES THIS FOR BIRDIE AT 5. BRILLIANTLY DONE BY JONES. HE’S THREE UNDER PAR TODAY.

RIPPER ARE DOWN IN 10th PLACE. AFTER A DISAPPOINTING 74 YESTERDAY, THAT’S MUCH BETTER FROM THE RANGE GOATS CAPTAIN, THAT WAS BIRDIE AT 8 FOR HIM. >> ADVANCE SECOND SHOT AT FIRST FOR THE FIREBALLS. >> OH, WHAT A BEAUTY. >> THAT’S THE 13th GREEN. THE SECOND HARDEST HOLE IN THE GOLF COURSE YESTERDAY.

>> AND THIS IS BRYSON’S FOURTH. HE DROVE IT IN THE WATER. >> TOUGH GOING AT 13 FOR BRYSON DECHAMBEAU. >> I’M SURPRISED HE’S GOING WITH A PUTTER INSTEAD OF TRYING TO CHIP IT INTO THE BANK. STILL SOME WORK LEFT. >> HERE’S CAMERON SMITH OVER AT THIRD. DON’T FORGET IN CLUB 54, THE LIV

GOLF POST ROUND SHOW WHICH DAVID WILL MAKE A STAR APPEARANCE ON A LITTLE LATER ON WITH CHRISTINE CROSBY, IT’S FORM CHECK TIME AT LIV GOLF UNDER SCORE LEAGUE. BE KIND TO EVERYBODY, SAYS SEBASTIAN, GET YOUR SWINGS IN. IF IT’S YOUR OWN, A FRIEND OF YOURS OR IF IT’S AN ENEMY.

THAT WOULD BE FUN. WE WILL GET TO OUR EXPERTS INCLUDING DAVID. >> I INTEND TO BRING THAT SHOW TO NEW LEVELS OF STUPIDITY. >> DID YOU SEE MAX — IT KIND OF ALL STARTED WITH MAX ROASTING PEOPLE. YESTERDAY A YOUNG LADY SENT IN A SWING OF HERS TO HAVE HIM ROAST

IT. HER FIRST NAME WAS HOPE AND HIS ROAST WAS IS YOUR MIDDLE NAME “LESS”? >> OH, DEAR. >> I THINK THEY WERE FRIENDS BEFOREHAND. MAY NOT BE NOW. >> A CLEAN-SHAVEN LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN STAYS AT NINE UNDER PAR. ON HIS OWN IN THIRD PLACE. ONE SHOT AHEAD OF HIS TEAMMATE,

CHARL SCHWARTZEL AND ADRIAN MERONK ARE EIGHT UNDER PAR. >> WELL D.J. HAS, ACTUALLY — ON THE UP SLOPE, THAT MAY NOT BE SO BAD. >> LOOK HOW LOW HE’S GETTING HIS HANDS. >> HE’S ONE OVER FOR HIS ROUND. >> MAY BE WORSE NOW. JON RAHM AT 12. A LITTLE SHORT RIGHT.

>> JOAQUIN ON 13. >> YEAH HE WAS NOT HAPPY AFTER THAT WEDGE SHOT. BET YOU HE WAS LOOKING TO CAPITALIZE ON THAT. NOW RIGHT TO LEFT DOWNHILL PUTT. JUST DID NOT MOVE AS MUCH AS HE THOUGHT. >> KEVIN NA, SEVEN UNDER FOR THE COMPETITION. HIS SECOND SHOT AT 10.

>> 19 UNDER AS A TEAM. >> ADRIAN MERONK — SECOND SHOT, THIS GROUP’S BEEN WARNED. THEY ARE THREE MINUTES OVER TIME AND NOW THE POSITION, PERFECT TEE SHOT FOR MERONK. EXPECT TO GET THIS ONE INSIDE A SHORT — HIT A VERY NICE SHOT. >> ONLY THE THIRD FAIRWAY HE’S HIT TODAY, DOM.

>> YEAH. NO, THEY ARE ALL STRUGGLING A LITTLE BIT. SCHWARTZEL THE MOST BUT HE’S BEEN QUITE CONSERVATIVE OFF THE TEE. WELFAREWAY TO HEAVEN IS THE FIRST LIV GOLF LEAGUE PODCAST AND IT’S HOSTED BY JERRY AND SUANN. THEY RECENTLY WERE JOINED BY BRYSON DECHAMBEAU WHO TALKS ABOUT THE SECRET OF SELF CONFIDENCE.

>> SELF-BELIEF IS THE ONE THING YOU JUST CANNOT TEACH IN THE GAME. YOU CAN TEACH ALL THE TECHNIQUE IN THE WORLD. CAN’T TEACH SOMEONE TO BELIEVE IN THEMSELF. WHERE DID THAT CONVICTION COME FROM? HAS IT ALWAYS BEEN A PART OF YOUR DNA? >> YOU KNOW, IT’S FUNNY.

IT CAME FROM ME FAILING A LOT AND BEING COMFORTABLE FAILING. >> AND THE VERY UNCOMFORTABLE FEELING, ISN’T IT. >> YEAH FOR MOST IT’S VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. BUT FOR ME, YEAH, IT SUCK, I GET MAD AND FRUSTRATED BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY WHEN I FAIL AT

NIGHT I’M ABLE TO GO HOW CAN I IMPROVE AND MAKE THAT NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN? THAT’S WHAT SETS ME APART. >> FOR YOUNG PEOPLE WHO MIGHT BE LISTENING IN OR WATCHING THIS ON YOB OR ON OUR LIV GOLF PLUS APP, WOULD THAT BE THE ADVICE YOU WOULD GIVE TO YOUNG PEOPLE?

>> LOOK, THERE’S — FAILURE THAT YOU CAN’T OBVIOUSLY COME BACK FROM. MAKING SURE YOU DON’T FAIL THAT HARD. BUT FAILING ENOUGH TO BE LIKE MAN THIS REALLY SUCKS, I DON’T LIKE THIS. HAVING THE SUPPORT SYSTEM AROUND YOU, YOU CAN DO IT, IT’S OK. LET’S FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET IT DONE.

LET’S ASK THE RIGHT QUESTIONS. THAT’S THE MOST IMPORTANT THING I CAN TELL ANY JUNIOR OUT THERE LISTENING TO THIS. IF YOU CAN ASK THE RIGHT QUESTION WHEN YOU FAIL, YOU ARE 50% OF THE WAY TOWARD SUCCESS AND TOWARD WINNING. THE OTHER 50% IS JUST DOING IT. >> COULD USE A LITTLE BIT OF

THAT SELF-BELIEF NOW. A DOUBLE BOGEY FOR BRYSON. HE DROPS BACK TO 5 UNDER PAR. A FEW MOMENTS AGO THIS FOR BIRDIE AT THE FIRST AND THAT’S NICELY ROLLED IN. HASHTAG CURRY POWER. AND BRYSON, WHO WAS A LITTLE SLOW TO GET STARTED LAST YEAR, HE WAS IN 38th PLACE IN THE

SEASON-LONG STANDINGS AFTER FIVE EVENTS AND GRADUALLY MADE HIS WAY UP THOSE STANDINGS. AN UNFORGETABLE DISPLAY AT THE GREENBRIER. HE WENT 16 AT 58 TO WIN THE TITLE. HE THEN WAS VICTORIOUS IN CHICAGO AND IN THE END ONLY JUST MISSED OUT ON A TOP THREE FINISH IN THE LIV GOLF LEAGUE BUT THEN

CAPTAINED HIS TEAM THE CRUSHERS TO VICTORY TO WIN THE TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP IN MIAMI. >> COMING OFF BACK-TO-BACK BOGEYS THE PREVIOUS TWO HILLS. >> JOAQUIN ON THE TEE. >> HE FOUND THAT NICE HIGH DRAW THAT GOES FOR MILES. >> JASON KOKRAK HAS IT TO EIGHT UNDER PAR WITHIN TWO OF THE

LEADERS, FOUR BIRDIES IN HIS LAST FIVE HOLES. THAT WAS HIS LAST ONE AT THE FIRST. SO, JASON KOKRAK ON FIRE HERE IN JEDDAH. THEY ARE IN FOURTH PLACE IN A TIE AT 19 UNDER. >> SCHWARTZEL AT 12. A SIMILAR PUTT FROM THE ONE HE HAD ON THE LAST BUT DIFFERENT

BREAK ON THIS ONE. RELEASES THIS PUTTER BEAUTIFULLY. IT LOOKS GOOD. IT IS GOOD. >> CHARL SCHWARTZEL JOINS HIS TEAMMATE LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN ON NINE UNDER PAR. >> LUCAS HERBERT WITH A SAWN OFF, A BEAUTIFUL PUNT SHOT. >> BACK TO MERONK. >> ADRIAN HAS A FRIEND FROM POLAND FOLLOWING HIM. >> OH, YEAH?

>> YEAH WELL HE LIVES IN QATAR. BUT KNEW HIS MOM AND DAD VERY WELL AND HE’S KNOWN ADRIAN SINCE HE WAS A LITTLE KID AND HE’S CARRYING A POLISH FLAG. NOT HARD TO SPOT. >> KEVIN NA, HE’S HAVING A FANTASTIC COUPLE OF DAYS SO FAR HERE IN SAUDI ARABIA.

HE IS 8 UNDER PAR. HE’S ONLY TWO BACK OF THE LEADERS. >> JON RAHM COUPLE UNDER PAR TODAY. 10 UNDER IN THE LEAD HAS THIS ONE TO SAVE PAR. >> NURSE? BED PAN, PLEASE. >> CAMERON TRINGALE IS HAVING A WONDERFUL DAY. PHIL MICKELSON,, STINGER GOING BEAUTIFULLY AS WELL. THAT WAS LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN.

THEIR CAPTAIN FOR BIRDIE AT 11. HERE’S THE SCORE IN THE TEAM COMPETITION. STINGER HAVE A THREE-SHOT LEAD OVER THE HYFLYERS AND IT’S THE IRON HEADS AND LEGION XIII WHO WERE THE OVERNIGHT LEADERS BY A SINGLE SHOT. IT CAN ALL CHANGE VERY QUICKLY OF COURSE IN THE TEAM COMPETITION. THREE SCORES COUNT TOWARD THE

TEAM COMPETITION SCORE ON THE OPENING TWO DAYS. TOMORROW, AN ABSOLUTE FREE FOR ALL. ALL FOUR SCORES COUNT AND THAT SEPARATES THE WHEAT FROM THE CHAFF. >> 46 CARRIES AT THE FLAG. >> AND THE 11th HAS PROVED TO BE SOMETHING OF A PROBLEM FOR A FEW OF THESE GUYS.

>> HOLD ON, YEAH I KNOW. I SEE HIM. HE STOPPED. >> ANYTHING TOO FAR RIGHT WILL CATCH THE SLOPE AND GO DOWN INTO THE GULLY AND ON THE LEFT YOU ARE KIND OF SHORT SIGHTED. >> GO. GO SOMEHOW. >> IT DIDN’T, SOMEHOW. DOWN BELOW THE SURFACE, WE WILL SEE.

>> A TEE AT 13. ADRIAN MERONK. >> THESE GUY HAVE HIT THE TOUGHEST PART OF THE GOLF COURSE. 12 THROUGH TO 16. >> YOU GOTTA MAKE GOOD COMMITTED SWINGS IF NOT. YOU CAN HAVE A HIGH SCORE ON ANY ONE OF THOSE HOLES. >> WATER DOWN THE RIGHT, BUNKER ON THE LEFT.

>> BUT WATER SHOULDN’T COME INTO PLAY. OH, THIS IS WAY LEFT. THAT’S DESERT HEADED. >> OOP. CLANK. WELL WE KNOW WHERE HE WASN’T GOING. >> LUCAS HERBERT HAS HIMSELF TO 7 UNDER PAR. HE’S 2 UNDER FOR HIS ROUND SO FAR TODAY. AND THAT WAS BIRDIE AT 15.

>> GOOD TEE SHOT FOR JON RAHM. CUT INTO THE WIND. STARTED OFF THE LEFT MIDDLE OF THE FAIRWAY IDEALLY. >> YEP. THAT IS IDEAL. >> LOW SCORING. NOT EASY OUT THERE TODAY. JON RAHM COMING OFF A BOGEY. NINE UNDER PAR ALONGSIDE SCHWARTZEL AND OOS UIZEN. IT’S JOAQUIN NIEMANN WHO LEADS

THE WAY ON 10 UNDER. 14th HOLE AND LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN. >> HE HAS A NINE IRON. WHOLE LOCATION STUCK BEHIND THE RIDGE. EVERYTHING KICKS LEFT BACK THERE SO — WANT TO LAND THIS JUST LEFT OF THE WHOLE LOCATION FOR A FLATTER PUTT. WON TWICE IN THE OFF SEASON IN MARITIUS OPEN.

CAME IN SECOND IN OMAN LAST WEEK. HE’S PLAYING SOME REALLY GOOD GOLF. HE HAD THAT INJURY ON HIS FOREARM LAST YEAR. I DON’T THINK THERE’S ANY MORE TENDONS IN THERE. IT LOOKS LIKE HE HAS A SORE RIGHT KNEE, AS WELL. BUT HE’S DOING IT GREAT. THAT’S NOT HIS BEST.

>> COULD HAVE GOT A LITTLE KICK LEFT. DIDN’T GET IT. BRANDON GRACE FOUR UNDER PAR TODAY. SEVEN UNDER FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP. >> STINGER HAVE A FOUR-SHOT LEAD OVER THE HYFLYERS IN THE TEAM COMPETITION. >> JOAQUIN, SECOND SHOT ON 14. PITCHING WEDGE. >> KEVIN NA. AT THE 11th HOLE.

HE TEED OFF AT 17 AND HE’S GOING VERY NICELY INDEED. A 66 YESTERDAY AND HE’S FOUR UNDER PAR FOR HIS ROUND SO FAR TODAY AND HE WILL BE DELIGHTED WHEN HE LOOKS AT THE TEAM LEADERBOARD AS WELL BECAUSE HIS IRON HEADS WHO COULD USE A PODIUM FINISH ARE TIED FOR THIRD PLACE.

>> OH, LOOK AT THIS. RIGHT AT IT. A MISS HIT OFF THE TEE, RECOVERS NICELY. >> ANTHONY KIM FOR ANOTHER PAR. HE RUNS THAT ONE IN. YOU CAN WATCH ALL OF A.K.’S ROUND ON THE LIV GOLF MUST APP ON YOUR SECOND SCREEN. >> AND PLENTY OF PEOPLE ARE AFTER PERUSING THROUGH SOCIAL

MEDIA HERE OCCASIONALLY. >> P.D D. UIHLEIN. WE HOPE TO SEE HIM IN HONG KONG, THEY WILL CHOOSE ONE OF THE THREE RESERVES TO PLAY TOMORROW AND THAT RESERVE WILL KNOW THAT HIS SCORE WILL COUNT BUT THE RANGE GOATS ARE IN 12th PLACE AT 8 UNDER PAR.

>> THWART CANNOT SEE THE DO YOU KNOW, BUT THERE’S A LAMP HOST DIRECTLY BEHIND THE GREEN AND THAT’S THE LINE TO THE PIN. WITH THE PIN ON THE LEFT SIDE, IT’S — HE DOESN’T HAVE TO GO OVER ANY WATER. THE PROBLEM IS, HE’S, IN THIS ANGLE, AT THIS ANGLE, HE IS

HITTING DIRECTLY INTO THE WIND. HE NEEDS TO CATCH THIS SOLIDLY. AND IF HE DOESN’T CATCH IT SOLIDLY, GETS A LOT OF SPIN ON THE BALL, THIS COULD END UP A LONG WAY SHORT. AND IF HE PUTS LEFT TO RIGHT SPIN ON IT, THE WATER COULD STILL BE IF PLAY. >> SHORT LEFT, SENSIBLE.

>> LET’S GET CAUGHT UP WITH AXLES WHERE ACROSS THIS MAGNIFICENT GOLF COURSE ROYAL GREENS ON THE SHORES OF THE RED SEA. SEBASTIAN MUNOZ FOR BIRDIE AT 17. THAT GETS HIM TO FOUR UNDER PAR FOR THE COMPETITION. TORQUE DOWN AT 6th. LEISHMAN IS AT PAR. RIPPER IS NOW EIGHTH ON 14 UNDER.

>> I’M THINKING IF THIS FINISHES IN THE FRONT BY EVEN FIVE SHORT ON THE GREEN, THAT’S PAR FROM THERE. >> THAT WIND PROBABLY WON’T GET TOUCHED. NOT AT THE START, NO. LET’S GO. >> ADRIAN MERONK DISPLAYS GREAT EQUNAMITY. IT ALMOST FEELS LIKE HE NEEDS TO GET MORE EMOTIONAL. DOWNHILL LIE.

HE LOOKS LIKE HE’S AIMING A LITTLE RIGHT, MAYBE TRYING TO DRAW IT INTO THE WIND. IT WILL WORK AWAY FROM THE WATER AS LONG AS IT DRAWS. >> YEAH. OH, BOY DID THAT DRAW. LOUIS, HIS THIRD SHOT AT 14. >> THAT LOOKS LIKE A LITTLE HYBRID CLUB HE’S GOING TO POP IT WITH.

YEP. >> JUST TO PUT IT INTO CONTEXT, IT’S A FOUR-STROKE LEAD AT THE TOP OF THE COMPETITION. THEY WERE 16 UNDER PAR YESTERDAY ON DAY ONE. TODAY THEY ARE A COLLECTIVE NINE UNDER WHICH IS SOMETHING OF AN IMPROVEMENT ON THEIR 16 OVER IN ROUND 3 ALONE IN LAS VEGAS. IN THE LAST COMPETITION.

>> MISCUE THERE FROM RAHM. >> JASON KOKRAK FOR ANOTHER BIRDIE THIS TIME AT 2. JASON STAYS EIGHT UNDER PAR. >> JOAQUIN FOR BIRDIE. >> WELL LUCAS HERBERT IS ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS WHY RIPPER GC HAVE STARTED TO CLIMB THE PILE ON. THIS TO GET IT TO EIGHT UNDER

PAR FOR THE NEWCOMER TO RIPPER AND TO LIV GOLF. THAT WAS HIS BIRDIE PUTT AT 16. >> LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN FOR PAR. SHOULD JUST MOVE A SCOCH TO HIS RIGHT UP HILL. >> AABRAHAM ANCIR FOR BIRDIE AT 2. HE’S HAD A FOUR CONSECUTIVE BIRDIES FOR ABE ANCIR. >> CHARL SCHWARTZEL HIS THIRD

SHOT AT 13. A LITTLE PUNCH, ONE BOUNCE AND A CHECK. OH, WOW. THAT’S JUST DELIGHTFUL. I MEAN — IF YOU LIKE GOLF. >> DRONE DAN STEEL FOR PAR AT 15. YES. THAT’S GOOD NEWS FOR THE HYFLYERS. BRENDAN STEEL IS COUNTING TODAY. TWO UNDER PAR FOR HIS ROUND AND THE HYFLYERS STAY IN SECOND,

FOUR BACK FROM STING ER. GOOD START FROM JASON KOKRAK AT THE THIRD. >> BACK WITH ADRIAN MERONK, DOM, AT 13. >> YEAH, NOT A BAD PLACE CONSIDERING HE WASN’T HAPPY WITH HIS SECOND SHOT. HE CAN FLY THIS VIRTUALLY. TO THE HOLE. IT’S NOT GOING TO BOUNCE AND MOVE VERY MUCH.

STRAIGHT INTO THE TEETH OF THE WIND. CAN COME OUT LOW, TOO. >> LANDED ON THE DOWN SLOPE. >> YEAH T DID. JUST TOOK A BIG SHOOT FORWARD. BUT STILL — PLENTY OF STUFF ON IT. >> WELL IF YOU HAVE YET TO DOWNLOAD THE LIV GOLF PLUS APP, YOU ARE MISSING OUT ON SOMETHING

QUITE SPECIAL. TODAY FOR EXAMPLE, WATCH EVERY SHOT OF ANTHONY KIM, BUBBA WATSON AND GRAEME McDOWELL IN ADDITION TO COMMERCIAL FREE LIV GOLF ACTION, YOU CAN REWATCH EVERY SINGLE ROUND OF LIV GOLF SINCE DAY WOULD YOU KNOW. DOWNLOAD THE APP TODAY FOR LIV GOLF JEDDAH IN THE USA TURN INTO

THE CW, 1 P.M. EASTERN ON SUNDAY. >> JON RAHM FROM NOT A PARTICULARLY GOOD LIE. EXCELLENT SHOT. >> PHIL HAD A BIT OF AN ADVENTURE ON 16 YESTERDAY, DIDN’T HE. IT ENDED RATHER WELL. >> I’M NOT SURE WE HAVE EVER SEEN ANYONE ACTUALLY HIT IT INTO THE RED SEA.

WE HAVE SEEN IT ON THE BEACH BEFORE. >> WE HAVE HAD FIVE BIRDIES HERE TODAY. NOT SURPRISING HE’S STILL PLAYING OVER PAR, ALL FIVE VERY CLOSE TO THE HOLE. >> PHIL’S TEAMMATE BRENDAN STEEL GOING WELL TODAY. SEN UNDER PAR FOR THE COMPETITION. HE WILL TEE IT OFF FIRST.

>> TAKES A LOT OF GUTS EVEN FOR SOMEBODY WHO DRAWS THE BALL LIKE BRENDAN TO TRY AND DRAW ONE AGAINST THAT WIND. >> THAT’S THE HARDEST WIND THAT ONE COMING OFF THE SEA. >> JOAQUIN NIEMANN ON THE TEE AT 15. THIS WAS THE HARDEST HOLE YESTERDAY. WE ONLY SAW FOUR BIRDIES.

STRAIGHT INTO THE WIND OFF THE RED SEA. TEE PICK UP, ALWAYS A GOOD SIGN FOR JOAQUIN. >> DID THAT BALL GET AIRBORNE? >> IT WAS A WORM BURNER. >> OH, MY GOODNESS. >> MERONK, LOT OF WORK FOR PAR. >> ONE OVER FOR THE DAY NOW. THE OVERNIGHT COLEADER, ADRIAN MERONK IS LOUIS.

>> JUST A LITTLE LEFT. >> JON RAHM FOR PAR TO STAY ONE BACK. NOT THE PUTTING STATISTICS THAT JON RAHM WAS HOPING FOR AT THE START OF PLAY TODAY. >> SO EFFECTIVE ON THE GREENS YESTERDAY. EIGHT UNDER PAR 62. JON RAHM’S CHARGE HAS BEEN HALTED. HERE AT ROYAL GREENS.

HE’S BACK TO EIGHT UNDER PAR, WHERE HE STARTED THE DAY. TWO BEHIND JOAQUIN NIEMANN. >> PATRICK REIL IN THE FAIRWAY AT 17. JUST OVERDRAWN THERE. KEVIN NA AT THE 12th. ANOTHER BEAUTY. THAT’S THE BALL, KAZUMA AT 17. >> NOT BAD AT ALL. >> A.K. FOR BIRDIE AT 10.

>> LUCAS HERBERT. HIS SECOND AT 17. >> JASON KOKRAK HAS ANOTHER BIRDIE CHANCE THIS TIME AT THREE. TO GET HIM TO NINE UNDER PAR, SPOIL ARE ALERT IN OUR PYLON, THERE YOU GO. HE TEED OFF AT EIGHT. HE PLAYED THE BACK NINE OF ROYAL GREENS IN A FIVE UNDER PAR 30

AND THAT EXCELLENT FORM HAS CONTINUED. HE’S BIRDIED ONE AND THREE. HE’S 7 UNDER PAR TODAY. LOW SCORES HAVE BEEN HARD TO COME BY. NINE UNDER OVERALL. ONLY ONE BACK OF JOAQUIN NIEMANN. >> JON RAHM WHO IS EVEN PAR TODAY. >> I THINK HE’S GOING TO TAKE HIS FRUSTRATIONS OUT ON THIS TEE

SHOT, JERRY. IT’S A PRETTY WIDE FAIRWAY. MIGHT AS WELL HIT IT HARD. GET IT OUT OF YOUR SYSTEM. >> THAT WILL WORK. >> THAT CLUB IS SO LAID OFF AT THE — WELL IT’S — JERRY, YOU ALMOST CAN SAY THE TOP OF HIS BACK SWING, BECAUSE HE DOESN’T GET THERE. >> YEAH.

>> IT’S A HALF SWING. GENERATES SUCH POWER. >> YOU SEE SMASH IN A TIE FOR SECOND PLACE. WINNERS IN LAS VEGAS, MVP ON THE FINAL DAY WAS GRAEME McDOWELL WITH HIS 65 AND HE’S CONTRIBUTING AGAIN. HE’S TWO UNDER TODAY AND THAT FOR G-MC WAS BIRDIE AT 10. >> LOUIS WITH THE SECOND SHOT

JUST CAUGHT THE LEFT ROUGH THIS DRIVE. THAT BALL IS SITTING JUST A LITTLE DOWN. INTO A CLUMP OF GRASS JUST BEHIND IT. BALL A LITTLE ABOVE HIS FEET. LOCATION FRONT LEFT. WIND JUST OFF THAT LEFT — SORRY, THE RIGHT HERE. SIT. >> YOU SAW THE PYLON MOVING FOR A TIE AT FIFTH.

HE’S SIX UNDER PAR FOR HIS ROUND SO FAR TODAY. A FAMILIAR COURSE. HE WON THE SAUDI INTERNATIONAL HERE IN JAN OF LAST YEAR. >> I THINK IT’S — WITH THAT CLUB, WITH THAT CLUB, FINE. NO PROBLEM. LOVE IT. >> PITCHING WEDGE SIGNAL BY GARY. AND HE’S DRIVING THE BALL SO WELL.

ALL DAY TODAY, IT’S TWO PERCENT HARDER TO FIND THE FAIRWAYS OUT HERE AT ROYAL GREENS COMPARED TO THE AVERAGE LIV GOLF METRIC. GOING TO TRY TO FLIGHT THIS ONE DOWN. THIS IS JUST SLIGHTLY LEFT OF IT. >> YEAH, NOT MUCH. ANOTHER GOOD SWING. >> WELL — SOMETHING HAPPENED.

AND WE WILL GET BACK TO IT IN A SECOND. >> PHIL’S SECOND SHOT AT 13. OH! THAT’S WHAT HAPPENED. >> THAT’S WHAT HAPPENED GOODNESS ME. PHIL IS SIX UNDER, OVERALL. NOW SMASH AS YOU HAVE SEEN HAVE GOT IT INTO A TIE FOR SECOND PLACE AND THIS IS HOW THEY ARE

DOING IT. WHAT A SIGNING. FREE AGENT. HE WAS WITH THE CLEEKS LAST YEAR. KOEPKA TODAY IS FOUR UNDER PAR. JERRY THOUGHT HE WOULD GO LOW TODAY HE IS DOING SO BUT THE HERO AT THE MOMENT IS JASON KOKRAK. SEVEN UNDER THROUGH 14 ON SUPER SATURDAY. NINE. FOUR BACK OF STING ER.

AND KEVIN NA IS TAKING A QUIZZICAL LOOK THAT THE ONE. THAT WASN’T CLOSE. >> MOMENTS AGO, KOZUMA FOR BIRDIE AT 17. KEEPS THE HIGHER THAN HEADS WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE OF THE PODIUM. 19 UNDER PAR. ONE BEHIND THE FLYERS. TYLER GOOCH GETS IT TO 7 UNDER AND THREE BACK. >> HE’S REMARKABLY CONSISTENT,

ISN’T HE, GOOCH. A REIGNING INDIVIDUAL CHAMPION. >> UNLESS SOMETHING CRAZY HAPPENS THESE LAST FOUR OR FIVE ROLES WE WILL HAVE ONE HECK OF A BUNCHED UP LEADERBOARD GOING INTO THE FINAL ROUND. >> RAHM, TWO BACK. >> LIKE IT IS EVERY WEEK HERE IN THE GOLF LEAGUE. >> YOU MEAN THAT SECTION?

>> A FEW MOMENTS AGO, LUCAS HERBERT, CAN HE ADD YET ANOTHER BIRDIE TO HIS TALLY TODAY? OH, HE WASN’T FAR AWAY. THAT WAS AT 17. 13 PLAYERS TO YOUR POINT, JERRY, WITHIN THREE SHOTS. OF THE LEAD. >> SCHWARTZEL FROM THREE YARDS CLOSER THAN JON RAMIREZ. RAHM.

HE WOULD TAKE A SHOT SIMILAR TO JON’S. >> YEP, IT WOULD. EVEN BETTER. >> DEAN BURMESTER IS THE ONLY MAN OUT FOR STINGER. NOT BY MUCH. HE’S 2 UNDER FOR THE DAY. THAT’S HOW HE GOT THERE. THAT WAS THE BIRDIE AT 12. THAT REACTION SUGGESTS HE PERHAPS SHOULD HAVE GONE LOWER.

>> MERONK IN THE FAIRWAY. SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT ANGLE COMING OVER THE BUNKER ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE GREEN. THAT’S GOING IT SIT. >> WELL THE LIV GOLF LEAGUE BOASTS THE GAME’S MOST IMPRESSIVE ROSTER OF PLAYERS. YOU CAN SPOT A CURRENT OR FUTURE MAJOR CHAMPION EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK.

LIV’S TOP DOGS KNOW YOU HAVE TO BEAT THE BEST WEEK IN AND WEEK OUT. >> THE COMPETITION WAS GOOD BEFORE. I THINK NOW IT’S EVEN STRONGER. JON’S ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS IN THE WORLD, JUST LIKE MYSELF, BROOKS, JOAQUIN, JON RAHM IS MARCHING WITH HIS LEGION XIII. >> I THINK JON IS HIGH

COMPETITIVE GUY BY NATURE. >> WIND IS IN HIS SAILS. >> THEY ARE THERE TO WIN, YOU KNOW. AND I THINK THAT’S MOTIVATING FOR ALL THE OTHER GUYS. >> YEAH, ENJOY COMPETING AGAINST THESE GUYS EVERY WEEK. >> HE’S SO TALENTED. HOPEFULLY I GET TO BEAT HIM MORE TIMES THAN HE DOES TO ME.

>> BIG MOMENT FROM HERE. OH, WOW. >> THAT IS QUITE BRILLIANT FROM JOAQUIN NIEMANN. >> HE’S A GREAT PLAYER. A REALLY GOOD KID. IT’S NICE TO SEE THAT AUGUSTA GAVE HIM AN INVITE. I THINK IT’S WELL DESERVED. >> BEAUTIFUL SHOT. >> NIEMANN’S A FANTASTIC PLAYER. HE’S COME BACK WITH A 59 TO WIN.

>> JOAQUIN NIEMANN HAS PRODUCED A REMARKABLE ROUND OF GOLF. >> WENT UP FIVE FOR THE TITLE, I WANT TO BOAT — I WANT TO BEAT THEM, I’LL WORK AS FAR AS I CAN TO BE AT THE TOP OF THE LEADERBOARD. >> TWO TOURNAMENTS IN SO FAR THIS SEASON, TWO FABULOUS

FINISHES AND IT LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING SIMILAR ON CHAMPIONSHIP SUNDAY TOMORROW. LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN IS RIGHT THERE. THAT WAS A MOMENT AGO. >> GOOD EFFORT. >> AND NOW LIVE WITH JOAQUIN FOR BIRDIE. >> A GREAT UPHILL PUTT. SHOULD MOVE TO HIS RIGHT. 28 PUTTS. >> I RECKON IT’S ONE OF HIS BIGGEST IMPROVEMENT.

IN TERMS OF HIS GAME. JUST SEEMS SO MUCH MORE CONFIDENT WHEN HE STANDS OVER IT. ANCER IS RUNNING NOT JUST HOT BUT SCORCHING HOT. FIVE CONSECUTIVE BIRDIES FOR ABE BETWEEN 17 AND 3. THAT WAS HIS SECOND SHOT INTO THE FIRST. THAT WAS A THREE AT THE PAR FOUR

AND THEN HIS BIRDIE AT TWO, THAT WAS A PAR FOUR AND THIS IS A PUTT FOR HIS BIRDIE TWO AT THE THIRD. SO, ABE ANCER, FIVE STRAIGHT BIRDIES AND HE’S UP THERE WITH THE LEADERS ON EIGHT UNDER PAR. THREE BACK OF JOAQUIN NIEMANN. >> JERRY, WHAT DOES THE LIV LINE SAY?

>> IT SAYS SEVEN INCHES. THE LIV LINE USES JUST THE SLOPE. DOESN’T TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE ACTUAL TEXTURE OF THE GRASS. IT’S SCIENTIFIC AND IT’S BEEN FOOLED A FEW TIMES. >> I JUST FEEL LIKE IT STRAIGHTENS OUT AT THE END. HE COULD MISS THIS TO THE RIGHT EASILY. >> YEAH.

HE LITERALLY WAS JUST ON THE UPPER SIDE OF THE LINE ON THAT WITH GOOD SPEED. NOT JAMMING IT BY EITHER. >> NOSTRADAMUS STRIKES AGAIN. >> WELL NO, IT’S — WITH THAT TECHNOLOGY, WHEN IT WAS FIRST INVENTED, IT HAPPENED, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, IT CAME FROM THE SAME

GUY WHO, THE IDEA BEHIND T THE GUY WHO INVENTED EIGHT POINT EXPRESS. WHEN IT WAS INTRODUCED TV I WAS CLOSE TO THE TECHNOLOGICAL SIDE OF MY FORMER EMPLOYER AND THERE IS SOME NONSCIENTIFIC ELEMENTS THAT CAN AFFECT IT MEANING THE WAY THE GRASS GROWS. BUT GRAIN ITSELF SHOCKINGLY ENOUGH DOESN’T AFFECT IT MUCH.

BUT THE IMPERFECTIONS IN A GRAIN THAT’S NOT CONSISTENT CERTAINLY CAN. >> AHH, THE FLAG OF CHILE. >> CHARL SCHWARTZEL TO GET TO WITHIN ONE. A LONG TIME AGO IT WAS AN INAUGURAL EVENT IN JUNE OF ’22 IN LONDON. HE STRUGGLED MIGHTILY FOR MOST OF THE YEAR LAST YEAR BUT IT

LOOKS LIKE CHARL IS BACK. >> HATTON AT 17. >> FEELS LIKE THE SCORING IS PICKING UP IN THE CLOSING STAGES OF SUPER SATURDAY HERE. THAT IS THE VIEW. FROM BEHIND THE 16th GREEN. >> THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL VIEW. DOESN’T GET OLD. ALWAYS TRIPS ME OUT HOW BLUE THE

WATER IS EVERY TIME I LOOK AT IT. WIND STRAIGHT OFF THE LEFT PLAYING 179. JOAQUIN’S GOT AN EIGHT. DON’T WANT TO GO LONG HERE INTO THAT BUNKER. IT WOULD BE A TREACHEROUS UP AND DOWN. WANT TO STAY LEFT JUST A LITTLE BIT. >> THAT’S NOT GOING TO BE THE EASIEST SAVE FROM THERE.

>> A SPOT OF TROUBLE HERE FOR JASON KOKRAK. HIS THIRD SHOT OF THE PAR FIVE FOURTH SMASH ARE THE LOWEST SCORERS SO FAR TODAY IN THE COMPETITION. THEIR THREE COUNTING SCORES TOTALED 14 UNDER PAR. THAT HAS THEM RIGHT UP TO SECOND PLACE ON 22 UNDER AND KOKRAK IS RIGHT THERE.

THAT’S THE SORT OF SHOT THAT HE’S BEEN PRODUCING ALL DAY. AND DON’T COUNT BROOKS OUT OF A THREE-PETE JUST YET. THIS IS FOR BIRDIE AT FIVE. THE SMASH CAPTAINS GET IT TO SIX UNDER. >> NOSTRADAMUS. >> WATCH THE FOOTWORK HERE. SO QUIET. AND HE IS NOT LIKING THAT ONE.

>> YEAH, THE WIND’S CATCHING THAT ONE. >> BOY, IT’S CLOSE. ONLY GETTING CLOSE ARE AS WE HEAD TOWARD THE END OF SUPER SATURDAY. JOAQUIN NIEMANN HEADS INDIVIDUALLY. STINGER HAS A LEAD OVER SMASH IN THE TEAM COMPETITION. >> BRYSON AT THE 16th. >> HASN’T BEEN HIS BEST DAY.

>> KOKRAK DID MAKE HIS BIRDIE. >> ANCER IS COMING OFF FIVE STRAIGHT BIRDIES. THIS IS AN EAGLE ATTEMPT AT THE FOURTH. >> GOOD EFFORT, TOO. >> BUT IT WILL BE SIX CONSECUTIVE BIRDIES FOR ABRAHAM ANCER AND HE WILL TAKE IT TO NINE UNDER PAR. JASON KOKRAK FOR HIS ROUND IS

EIGHT UNDER THROUGH 15. HE HAS THREE PAR FOURS TO PLAY. FIVE, SIX AND SEVEN. >> OVER ON 17, TAYLOR GOOCH FOR BIRDIE. OH, LOW. >> DEAN BURMESTER, HIS SECOND AT THE 13th. AND THAT WILL BE A BIRDIE. CHARL SCHWARTZEL ON THE TEE AT 15. HE IS 10 UNDER PAR.

>> GOING UP THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE FAIRWAY. NOT BAD. >> SEVEN UP HERE SO — JUST FOR REFERENCE YOU ARE 260 ONE RUN ON THAT RIGHT PALM. LEFT ONE IS — PRETTY MUCH STRAIGHT. A HAIR OFF THE LEFT. >> THIS GROUP CERTAINLY NOT MADE UP ANY GROUND ON THE GROUP AH AHEAD.

THE GROUP BEHIND WERE ALMOST READY FOR THE SECOND SHOTS WHEN THEY WERE STILL ON THE 14th GREEN. >> SHOULD CATCH THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE FAIR WAY. >> WHILE THAT WAS HAPPENING, TERREL L HATTON A FEW MOMENTS AGO MANAGED TO GET TO SIX UNDER PAR. THAT WAS BIRDIE AT 17 AND IT’S

SIGNIFICANT FOR LEGION XIII WHO ARE CLINGING ON TO THE PODIUM AT THE MOMENT ON 21 UNDER PAR. ARE THEY KIDDING RIGHT NOW? >> JUST WAIT. >> LITTLE DRONEAGE PERHAPS. >> YEAH. THEY’VE NOT BEEN HAPPY. HE’S APTLY NAMED. >> YEAH, GOOD SWING THERE. >> I THINK ALF’S ON THE NAUGHTY STEP TODAY.

>> ALF DOESN’T WANT TO MEET JON RAHM IN A DARK ALLEY RIGHT NOW. >> NO. OUR LEADER IS JOAQUIN NIEMANN. HIS SECOND SHOT THE PAR THREE. >> JUST AWKWARD ENOUGH FROM THERE. PLAYED IT BEAUTIFULLY. >> TORQUE GC. SOME POEM SAY GOLF ISN’T A TEAM SPORT BUT MAN IT DOES FEEL GOOD

TO HAVE A TEAM. IN THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES, CARLOS ORTIZ, 65 IN THE FINAL ROUND TO WIN BY FOUR SHOTS BUT THREE OF THE TOP FIVE WERE TORQUE PLAYERS. BUT IT WASN’T JUST THE TORQUE PLAYERS. >> LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN CAME IN SECOND PLACE AND HE’S CONTINUED THAT GOOD FORM HERE IN JEDDAH. >> YEAH.

LOUIS’ JUST PLAYING SOME OF THE BEST GOLF OF HIS LIFE. AGAIN. >> DUSTIN JOHNSON. THAT WAS FOR BIRDIE AT 14 FOR D.J. MUCH WAS MADE RECENTLY IN THE GOLF CIRCLES SOCIALLY BECAUSE OF A QUOTE THAT GOT TAKEN I THINK OUT OF CONTEXT FROM TAYLOR GOOCH, BASICALLY JUST AGREEING WITH THE REPORTER.

ABOUT THE MASTERS AND ABOUT THE INVITATIONS AND YES THANKFULLY THEY DID WHAT EVERYBODY FEELS IS THE RIGHT THING IN INVITING JOAQUIN NIEMANN. TAYLOR GOOCHA CASE TO BE MADE. AND THIS MAN RIGHT HERE, THE YEAR BEFORE LIV STARTED 2021, THREE TOP FINISHES IN THE MAJOR CHAMPIONSHIPS THEN HE GOES ON

THIS OFF SEASON PLAYING IN EVENTS AROUND THE GLOBE AND WINS TWO OF THEM BACK TO BACK AND PLAYING INCREDIBLE GOLF, THREATENING MANY, MANY WEEKS OUT HERE AS WELL. >> WHEN THE ALFRED DUNHILL AND MAURITIUS OPEN IN DECEMBER. >> BUT THAT EQUATION I’M SURE WILL GET SORTED OUT IN TIME.

>> THAT WAS A LOT HARDER THAN HE MADE IT LOOK COMING DOWNWIND FROM THE ROUGH. A PRETTY GOOD SHOT THERE FROM LUCAS HERBERT. >> BACK TO 16 GREEN AND JOAQUIN AT LEAD ARE FOR PAR TO MAINTAIN THAT ONE-STROKE LEAD OVER KOKRAK AND SCHWARTZEL. >> LAST SHOT WAS ALMOST ON THE

OTHER SIDE OF THE RED SEA. >> JERRY, BACK TO YOUR CONVERSATION ABOUT LOUIS, YOU KNOW, IT WOULD BE WEIRD NOT SEEING HIM AT THE MASTER’S. HE’S BEEN PLAYING IT SINCE 2008. I TOTALLY — JUST WATCHING HIM PLAY TODAY HE CERTAINLY IS ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS RIGHT NOW. >> THAT PART IS UNEQUIVOCAL.

THAT THERE’S A RANKING SYSTEM THAT THEY ALL RELY ON THAT IS ABOUT AS UNOFFICIAL AS AN OFFICIAL RANKING CAN BE. >> I THINK THE CLOSEST LAND ACROSS THE RED SEA IS THE BORDER BETWEEN SUDAN AND EGYPT. >> ALL RIGHT. WE WILL PICK YOU UP ON THE WAY BY, ALF.

>> PATRICK REED’S THIRD AT 18. >> OH, AND THAT WAS A STUB. DIDN’T MAKE THE CONTACT HE WANTED AT ALL. >> YOU DON’T SEE THAT TYPE OF MISTAKE OUT OF PATRICK REED VERY OFTEN. NOW ADRIAN MERONK AT 15. >> AND THESE GUYS ARE OFFICIALLY ON THE CLOCK. >> THAT TOOK A WHILE.

>> YEAH. WELL CORRECT ME IF I’M WRONG. THE FIRST PLAYER GETS 50 SECONDS, NEXT TWO GET 40. >> I THOUGHT IT WAS 40-30-30, ACTUALLY. >> NO. I THINK IT’S 50-40-40. PRETTY SURE. MAYBE I’M NOT SO SURE. >> WHY DON’T WE JUST GO 45-35-35. GOD I HATE TO SAY THIS.

I THINK DOM WAS RIGHT. >> I’M OFTEN WRONG BUT NEVER IN DOUBT. PITCHING WEDGE FOR JON RAHM. HE’S INSIDE OF 40 SECONDS FOR SURE. AND WHAT A HUGE TEE SHOT HE IS HERE. HE WANTS TO HIT THIS ONE CLOSE. HE WANTS TO FINISH WITH TWO THREE BIRDIES AT LEAST.

I THINK HE WILL HAVE A CHANCE HERE. >> JOAQUIN NIEMANN IS SEEKING HIS SECOND LIV GOLF TITLE IN ONLY THE THIRD EVENT OF THE SEASON SO FAR. HE LEADS BY ONE. >> LOUIS IS ON THE TEE AT 17. >> FAIRWAY WOOD. >> 2010 OPEN CHAMPION BY SEVEN SHOTS LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN ALSO

RUNNER-UP IN ALL FOUR MAJOR CHAMPIONSHIPS. >> BEFORE LOUIS, NIEMANN WITH THE DRIVER. HE DIDN’T LEAVE ANY OF THAT BACK ON THE TEE. THAT IS WAY OUT THERE NEAR THE GREEN. >> P. REED FOR BIRDIE AT 18. HE’S ANOTHER THAT GETS AWAY AFTER GETTING HIMSELF INTO A GOOD POSITION AFTER DAY ONE.

>> CHARL SCHWARTZEL, HIS BALL ENDED ON THE GREEN, 20 YARDS, AND HIS SHORT GAME HAS BEEN SUBLIME TODAY. >> LUCAS HERBERT HAS IT TO NINE UNDER PAR. I KNOW WHAT THE RIPPERS WILL BE DOING LATER. THEY WILL BE WATCHING CAM SMITH’S BRINGS BONE BRONCOS IN A DOUBLE HEADER TO LAUNCH THAT

SEASON IN LAS VEGAS, WOULD YOU BELIEVE — >> REALLY? >> — LATER ON. BUT LUCAS HERBERT IS CHALLENGING NINE UNDER PAR. >> JON RAHM GETTING TO NINE UNDER. OH, YES. THAT’S BEAUTIFULLY DONE. OH, IT’S GOING TO BE CLOSE TOMORROW. LOOK AT THE PEDIGREE AT THE TOP OF THE PYLON.

LOOK HOW CLOSE IT IS. ABE ANCER HAS SIX CONSECUTIVE BIRDIES. ADRIAN MERONK TO GET HAD BACK TO HIS OVERNIGHT AGED UNDER PAR, THIS FOR BIRDIE AT 15. >> OVER AT 14, KEVIN NA FROM BEHIND THE PALM TREES THERE. A BEAUTIFUL SHOT. >> ABE ANCER. HIS SECOND AT FIVE.

>> SEVEN IN A ROW WOULD BE PRETTY GOOD, WOULDN’T IT? >> REASONABLE. >> SCHWARTZEL WITH JUST A TOUCH OF WORK REMAINING FOR PAR HERE AT 15. >> LIVE TO ABE ANCER. I’M NOT SURE WHAT THE LIV GOLF RECORD IS. BUT THIS IS FOR A 7th CONSECUTIVE BIRDIE. AS RECENT EXPERIENCE OF VICTORY

HERE AT ROYAL GREENS, THE SAUDI OPEN CHAMPION BEFORE THE LIV GOLF LEAGUE SEASON STARTED LAST YEAR, BUT THEN HIS FORM SLUMPED. HE MANAGED TO GET IT BACK TOGETHER AGAIN TOWARD THE END OF THE SEASON. HE STARTED THIS SEASON WELL BUT THE 7th IN A ROW JUST EVADES HIM. >> PITIFUL.

WELL, WHILE THAT WAS GOING ON, LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN HERE AT 17 WHO LAID UP OFF THE TEE WITH THE FAIRWAY WOOD, NIEMANN HAS DRIVEN IT MILES UP THERE. LOVELY SHOT FROM LOUIS. >> BACK TO THE FIFTH AND JASON KOKRAK WHO IS 8 UNDER PAR FOR HIS ROUND TODAY.

HE COULD GET A SHARE OF THE LEAD HERE. THIS FOR BIRDIE AT 5. >> THIS GOES, WE HAVE A 59 WATCH. >> YEAH. ANOTHER ONE. >> ANOTHER ONE. >> OH, JASON KOKRAK. 11 UNDER PAR. HE STARTED THE DAY 2 UNDER. HE’S NOW LEVEL WITH JOAQUIN NIEMANN AT THE TOP OF THE PYLON.

LOOK OUT. WE ARE ON 59 WATCH YET AGAIN. >> OVER AT 12, GRAEME McDOWELL. THIS ONE WAS FOR BIRDIE AND ANOTHER ONE FROM THE GRAMMAR. >> HE SMASH TEAMMATE. LEVEL PAR OVERALL, 23 UNDER NOW. SMASH ONLY THREE BACK OF STINGER AND HE HERE’S CHARL SCHWARTZEL >> OH, THE WIND’S GOT IT A

LITTLE BIT. IS IT GOING TO HANG ON? >> PRETTY GOOD. >> MATTER OF INCHES WHETHER THAT ROLLS DOWN THE SLOPE OR NOT RIGHT THERE. >> LOOK HOW CLOSE JOAQUIN NIEMANN HAS DRIVEN IT TO THE 17th GREEN. >> BY THE WAY, KOKRAK HAS BIRDIED SIX OF HIS LAST SEVEN HOLES.

THIS WAS RAHM AT 16. >> STAY, STAY. >> AT THE 18th, BRENDAN STEEL. HYFLYERS HAVE DROPPED OUT OF THE PODIUM POSITION. STILL HEALHILY PLACED AT 20 UNDER PAR. BRENDAN, SIX UNDER. THIS IS HIS THIRD SHOT. CAMERON TRINGALE, THE MAIN CONTRIBUTOR FOR THE HYFLYERS TODAY. HIS ROUND SO FAR, SIX UNDER PAR. TODAY.

>> HE’S GOT A FLY THAT’S QUITE A WAYS BACK WITH SOME SPIN. >> YEAH. LOOKS LIKE HE’S GOING TO TOSS IT INTO THE SLOPE MAYBE RIGHT THERE AND HAUL IT UP. BEAUTIFUL SHOT. >> HERE’S THE MAN OF THE MINUTE ON THE TEE AT SIX. JASON KOKRAK. >> STANDSTILL.

>> IMPRESSIVE MAKING BIRDIE ON THIS ONE TODAY. >> YEAH, IT WOULD. >> HE’S MADE BIRDIE MORE TIMES THAN HE’S MADE PAR TODAY. THAT’S NOT A GOOD START. I DON’T THINK. >> WELL THIS GROUPING ARE PLAYING SCINTILATING TOGETHER. >> PAT PEREZ TURNED 48 YESTERDAY. GOT HIMSELF A BIRTHDAY CAKE FROM HIS FOUR ACES TEAMMATES.

THE RED SEA LOOKS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS. THE BREEZE COMING IN OFF IT AT ROYAL GREENS GOLF AND COUNTRY CLUB. THIS IS LIV GOLF JEDDAH FOR 2024. THE CLOSING STAGES OF SUPER SATURDAY AND BOY DO WE HAVE A TIGHT PYLON HERE IN BOTH COMPETITIONS. JOAQUIN NIEMANN DRILLS ANOTHER ONE. AND HE GOES INTO A ONE-STROKE

LEAD. GENTLEMEN, PICK A STORY LINE. ANY STORYLINE. IT’S HARD TO KNOW WHERE TO START. NIEMANN IS PLAYING SOME OF THE BEST GOLF IN HIS ENTIRE LIFE AND HAS THE LEAD INDIVIDUALLY. >> HE CONTINUES TO PLAY WELL EVERY TIME HE TEES IT UP, IT SEEMS BUT JASON KOKRAK IS THE

GUY WE HAVE OUR EYE ON AT THE MINUTE THE. WAS HE GOING TO MAKE TWO BIRDIES FOR 59. >> LAST TWO HOLES. >> LAST TWO HOLES. BUT NIEMANN HAS THE LAST TO PLAY, A REACHABLE PAR FIVE AND AT THE HALFWAY POINT WE THOUGHT WELL THE STORING ISN’T THAT GOOD.

IT’S ACCELERATED A LITTLE IN THE LAST 45 MINUTES TO AN HOUR. >> ARE YOU SURPRISED BY JON RAHM AND HIS RELATIVE STRUGGLES AFTER HIS 62 YESTERDAY? >> YEAH. HE SHOWED MORE FRUSTRATION ON THE GOLF COURSE FROM SOMEONE YOU WOULD EXPECT SHOOTING 62. IT SEEMED LIKE NOT EVERYTHING WAS GOING HIS WAY.

I TOLD HIS CADDY THAT WAS THE EASIEST 62 TODAY. ASIDE BEING ANNOYED WITH OUR ALF, I’M NOT SURE WHAT THE DIFFERENCE HAS BEEN QUITE HONESTLY. >> THIS IS LOUIS FOR BIRDIE AT 17. TO JOIN CHARL SCHWARTZEL ON THE 10 UNDER PAR. OH, YES. IT REALLY IS ACCELERATING TOWARD THE END OF SUPER SATURDAY.

KEVIN NA IS JOINING THE PARTY ON NINE UNDER PAR AS WELL. THIS IS FOR BIRDIE AT 14. >> RAHM’S SECOND AND 16. DUSTIN JOHNSON FOR A MUCH NEEDED BIRDIE AT 15. ONE UNDER FOR HIS ROUND SO FAR TODAY AND THAT’S HOW HE DID IT. FOLKS ENJOYING THE HOSPITALITY OVERLOOKING THE 16th GREEN.

MUST BE WORSE PLACES TO WATCH A SPORTING EVENT. OVERLOOKING THE RED SEA AND OUR WORLD CLASS FIELD. CHARL SCHWARTZEL FOR BIRDIE. OH, MAN. >> WELL THE IRON HEADS ARE HAVING A GOOD WEEK SO FAR. CURRENTLY IN FIFTH PLACE, BUT ONLY TWO SHOTS OFF THE PODIUM. SCOTT VINCENT SENDS THIS ONE ON

ITS WAY LOOKING GOOD. AND THEN IT DROPS. THAT WAS AT 13 FOR BIRDIE. MARTIN KIME STRUGGLING FOR FOUR AT THE MOMENT. HE’S LEVEL PAR FOR THE COMPETITION. THAT WAS FOR BIRDIE AT 7. >> OVER AT 16, JON RAHM FOR PAR. DID HE MISS ONE ABOUT THIS LENGTH YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL

WHEN YOU ARE OUT THERE EXPOSED TO THE WIND COMING OFF THE RED SEA. >> NOPE, NO MISTAKE. >> THIS GUY KEEPS MAKING PUTTS. LUCAS HERBERT, THE AUSTRALIAN. THAT’S THE FIRST GREEN. WE HAD THAT ONE RIGHT ONLINE. NOW, TEE SHOT AT 18 FOR JOAQUIN. HE CAN REACH THIS EASILY. >> ABSOLUTELY, DAVID.

TRYING TO ROPE HYDRA INTO THIS ONE. DOWNWIND. >> ABE ANCER WHO IS PLAYING ALONGSIDE JASON KOKRAK, TWO OF THE LOW SCORERS ARE TEARING IT UP OUT THERE. THIS IS HIS SECOND SHOT AT SIX. >> A LONG WAY BACK GOING WITH SOME KIND OF A HYBRID FAIRWAY WOOD. THAT’S A WONDERFUL SWING. >> WOW.

>> WOW. AND A MOMENT AGO AT 15, PHIL MICKELSON FOR BIRDIE. OH, YES. THE NEW PUTTER IS WORKING BEAUTIFULLY FOR THE MAESTRO AND THE HYFLYERS STAY IN CONTENTION FOR PODIUM FINISH AT LEAST. >> TOUGH HOLE THE SIXTH. KOKRAK COMES UP A LITTLE SHORT THERE. JON RAHM AN 17 TEE, A DRIVER YESTERDAY.

MORE PRUDENT PLAY TODAY. I HEARD YOU GUYS SAY JOAQUIN WAS CLOSE TO THE FRONT EDGE. JON COULD GET THERE EVERY EASILY, TOO. GOING TO LEAVE HIMSELF A FULL SECOND. OH, MAN, EASY. OK. >> LET’S GET YOU CAUGHT UP ON OUR WILD CARD. THE WILD CARD OF WILD CARDS. ANTHONY KIM.

AS HE WORKS HIS WAY BACK INTO SOMETHING LIKE FORM APPROACHING THE WONDER YEARS WHICH IS OVER A DECADE AGO, THAT WAS THE SHOT AT 15 WHERE HE TEED OFF. THIS IS THIRD AT 18. BOUNCES OFF THE WATER BUT THEN ENDS IN THE BUNKER. YOU CAN WATCH EVERY SHOT TODAY

OF ANTHONY KIM AND HIS GROUP ON THE LIV GOLF PLUS APP. HE’S SIX OVER FOR HIS SECOND ROUND SO FAR. THAT WAS FOR BIRDIE AT ONE. AND IT’S BEEN A SOLID LAST FEW HOLES FOR ANTHONY KING AND THAT WAS FOR PAR AT EIGHT. BACK TO THE 16th TEE AND CALEB

SURRATT, HE’S ONE OVER. HE’S NOT COUNTING FOR LEGION XIII RIGHT NOW. >> DROPPED FOUR SHOTS IN HIS LAST FIVE HOLES. THAT’S NOT WHAT HE’S LOOKING FOR. >> WELL THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES IS A PATHWAY INTO THE LIV GOLF LEAGUE. JUST ASK ANDY OWLINGTREE WHO FINISHED TOP OF THE STANDINGS

LAST YEAR AND IS NOW A HYFLYERS OF COURSE. THAT WAS IN O OMAN. CARLOS ORTIZ IS TOP AT THE MORNING, LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN. A LOT OF LIVE PLAYERS BUT NINE EVENTS TO GO AND A REAL INCENTIVE IF WINNING WASN’T INCENTIVE ENOUGH, BUT THERE COULD BE A PROMOTION OPPORTUNITY INTO THE LIV GOLF LEAGUE FOR

2025 FOR THE MAN WHO FINISHES AT THE TOP OF THE STANDINGS. >> JOAQUIN NIEMANN IS 12 UNDER PAR. THE NEXT 12 PLAYERS ARE WITHIN THREE SHOTS. HERE’S GRAEME McDOWELL. THIRD SHOT INTO 13. EVENTS. YOU SAW SCOTT VINCENT A FEW MOMENTS AGO. HE AND SCOTT HAVE FINISHED LEVEL IN THE LAST FOUR TOURNAMENTS.

LET’S HAVE A GOOD DAY. SENSE OF URGENCY. YEP. >> VISUALLY I’VE GOT IT COMING RIGHT TO LEFT. ONCE IT GETS PAST THE FIRST TIRE MARK. BOY THEY ARE IN A WALKING FAST MOOD RIGHT NOW, AREN’T THEY? DO WE WANT TO STICK WITH. >> I EITHER HAVE TO BE A DRAW 7

OR DRAW — >> IT COULD BE LIKE A PELS CUT 6. >> UM A HE NOT CUTTING IT HERE. >> OH, THAT’S RIGHT. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST WITH A 7 AND 9. SORRY. >> WELL IF IT TAKE AS BOUNCE FORWARD T MIGHT BE TOO MUCH. IT’S THAT, I JUST THINK IT MIGHT

>> KOKRAK STARTED SIX SHOTS BACK OF THE LEADERS, ONE OF THEM BEING JON RAHM. NO THINK HE ENVISIONED HAVING A CHANCE TO GET IN THAT FINAL GROUPING ON SUNDAY. BUT HIS PLAY TODAY HAS BEEN PHENOMENAL. >> I THINK ALL THREE PLAYERS, GOING T FOR THE PIN, YOU MIGHT

LAND ON THE DOWN SLOPE SO YOU NEED AS MUCH SPIN AS POSSIBLE. >> JOAQUIN AT 18. >> I JUST FOUND THE FIRST CUT HERE. TOOK OUT HIS 4 IRON OUT OF HIS BAG FOR THIS WEEK. AT THIS CLUB, 4 HYBRID SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS SHOT HERE ON 18.

TO BE ABLE TO FLIGHT ONE HIGHER. CONTROL IT IN THE WIND. SOFT ON LANDING. LOOKING PRETTY GOOD. >> WOW MANY WHEN A BRAVE LINE AT THAT WAS. >> AND REMEMBER, BACK TO MEXICO, HE DID IT THE HARD WAY DIDN’T HE. PENALIZED TWO STROKES OVERNIGHT BEFORE HIS FINAL ROUND THAT

DRAGGED HIM BACK BUT HE STILL PREVAILED AFTER A PLAYOFF IN THE DARK AGAINST SERGIO GARCIA. THE WILD CARD THAT WAS BIRDIE AT 12 FOR HIM AND MARTY KAYMER CAPTAIN OF THE CLEEKS, HIS SECOND SHOT AT 8. >> WELL A MOMENT AGO WE SAW A BALL ON THE GREEN THAT. WAS JON

HE’S MADE GREAT PUTTS FOR BIRDIE. REALLY GOOD ONES FOR PARS, TOO. JUST KEPT HIS HEAD DOWN, GRINDED IT OUT. BECAUSE IT’S A TOUGH DAY TODAY. KEVIN NA A BIRDIE AT 15. NICE AND STILL THERE, GUYS. THANK YOU. NICE AND STILL. JUST GOT NOTHING GOING TODAY, ADRIAN MERONK. BUT TWO BIRDIES.

MAKE HIM FEEL BETTER. HE’S CERTAINLY NOT OUT OF CONTENTION. NOT MADE ANYTHING TODAY. NOTHING. FINALLY! THE REVERSE JINX FROM BRULE. >> HE’S EIGHT UNDER ONE WITH A HOLE TO PLAY ON CHAMPIONSHIP, ON SUPER SATURDAY, I SHOULD SAY. GETTING AHEAD OF MYSELF IS LOUIS OOSTHUIZEN AND HIS THIRD INTO 18.

NOW THEN, BACK TO THE 17 AND RAHM FOR BIRDIE. TO MAKE IT TWO OUT OF THE LAST THREE. >> AND I THINK YOU SEE A REACTION IF THIS DOESN’T GO IN. >> FIDDLESTICKS ALL DAY, SAYS JON RAHM. ADDING TYLER GOOCH, HE GAVE NOTICE THAT HIS TEAM WAS HERE TO WIN.

IN ADDITION, GRAEME McDOWELL AS WELL, THE VETERAN, THAT WAS A SAVVY MOVE AND HE HELPED THEM TO THE TITLE IN LAS VEGAS. BROOKS KOEPKA, CAPTAIN OF SMASH. ONLY ONE VICTORY IN HISTORY. A COUPLE OF SEASONS AGO. >> WE WERE LOOKING TO MAKE THIS TEAM BE AS GOOD AS IT POSSIBLY CAN.

>> A TOP SEED TURVY FOR SMASH GC. THEY ARE IN THIRD SPOT. >> OBVIOUSLY ADDING TYLER WAS A HUGE THING. AND I KNOW HE STILL HAS GAME. MEANTY OF YEARS LEFT. >> G-MAC. >> I THINK AT MY STAGE IN THE CAREER, THE MOTIVATION WAS REALLY NEEDED. >> WE HAVE A THREE-WAY TIE FOR

THE TEAM LEAD. G.MAC IS ONE OF THE GREEDIEST PLAYERS IN THE GAME. >> GRAEME McDOWELL GETTING IT DONE TODAY. >> THE LAST I SAW ON THE SCORE BOARD WE WERE ONE OR TWO AHEAD. >> AND THEY NOW LEAD THE RANGERS. >> I AM PERSONALLY A LEADERBOARD WATCHER.

I NEED TO KNOW WHAT I NEED TO DO. >> NEXT THING YOU KNOW I LOOK UP AND HAVE A SEVEN H.L. WHAT’S GOING ON? >> MY GOODNESS. >> WE CAME TOGETHER IN VEGAS. IT WAS A GOOD TIME TO HIT THE JACKPOT. >> SPRAYING THE CHAMPAGNE A LITTLE BIT LATER IS TEAM CHAMPIONS.

LOOKING VERY GOOD. >> PLEASED WITH THIS TEAM. IT’S ONLY THE START AND I FEEL WE CAN CONTINUE TO DO THAT EVERY EVERY. >> WEEK. >> IT WAS NICE TO SHOW UP TODAY, PLAY WELL. >> SMASH G.C. VICTORIOUS AT LIV GOLF LAS VEGAS. >> I WAS ASKING YOU GUYS WHAT DO

YOU DO ON THE PODIUM? I’VE NEVER BEEN HERE BEFORE. IT WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE. WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO THE REST OF THE SEASON. LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING WHAT THIS TEAM CAN ACHIEVE. >> G. MAC WITH 65 ON THE LAST DAY. SMASH WENT 10 UNDER PAR. THE OTHER 12 TEAMS COMBINED WITH

66 OVER. THIS IS NIEMANN OUR LEADER AND EAGLE PUTT. HE WOULD TAP IN FOR BIRDIE AND HE IS 13 UNDER AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, A LITTLE BIT OF SEPARATION AT THE TOP OF THE PYLON. >> BRYSON FOR A BIRDIE ON THE 18th. HASN’T BEEN HIS DAY TODAY. VERY FRUSTRATING FOR BRYSON.

HE KNOWS HE CAN GO LOW HERE. A GOOD READ FROM JOAQUIN’S PUTT. NOT GOING TO MOVE THAT MUCH TO THE RIGHT. >> OVER AT THE SECOND, LUCAS HERBERT FOR BIRDIE. OH, HE HAS SCARED THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS OUT OF THE HOLE ALL DAY. >> RAHM AT 18. >> WANTS TO FIND THE FAIRWAY SO

HE HAS A CHANCE TO HIT THE GREEN IN TWO. PULLED IT YESTERDAY. HAD TO LAY UP. I THINK HE LIKES THIS ONE. >> HE WAS AIMED MUCH STRAIGHTER AND HIT THE BALL MUCH STRAIGHTER. NOT NEARLY AS MUCH BEND ON THAT FIRST. HE WILL BE ABLE TO GET HOME EASILY. >> OH, LOUIS.

THAT WAS UP ON THE 18th GREEN. JUST A MISS FOR BIRDIE THERE FOR OOSTHUIZEN. >> HIS TEAMMATE SCHWARTZEL ON THE TEE. >> SCHWARTZEL HAS KNOCKED IT BY RAHM. >> THIS DOESN’T LOOK GOOD. IS THERE A BALL THERE? OH, THERE IS. OH, MAN, YOU NEED TO WEAR PROTECTIVE EYEWEAR HITTING THAT.

D.J., A LITTLE DESPONDENT AFTER THAT. >> JOAQUIN ON THE TEE AT ONE. >> THIS WAS TIED THE HARDEST FAIRWAY TO HIT LAST YEAR. IT’S NOT AS WINDY COMPARED TO THE START OF TODAY M. >> DID HE PUSH THE BEND LIKE THIS? JUST RIGHT OF THAT? >> YEAH. >> GOOD. >> ON THE RIGHT.

>> YEAH. YOU HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU’RE DOING? PERFECT. >> IT’S BACK INTO THE WIND, THOUGH, RIGHT? >> YEAH, IT IS. JUST A LITTLE FROM THE RIGHT. PERFECT FOR HIS HIGH DRAW. HE FINDS THE FAIRWAY HERE, IT’S JUST A FLIP WEDGE. >> JASON COCHRAN, THIS IS HIS SECOND SHOT INTO PAR FOUR.

>> OH, NOT SURE WERE MEANT TO DO THAT. YOU CAN SEE THE PRACTICE SWING CLIPPING THE TOP OF THE SURFACE AND DUG IN AFTER ON THE ACTUAL SWING. PATRICK REED. BEAUTIFULLY PLAYED. >> HE HAS THAT AND A 63. >> JON RAHM. >> HE’S IN THE FIRST CUP.

THE BALL IS BELOW HIS FEET AND EVERY INCH TO THE FRONT OF THE GREEN IS OVER WATER. TODAY THE RIGHT BUNKER ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE IN THE FIRST ONE, I WOULD NOT WANT TO HIT THAT BUNKER SHOT. SO, IT MAKES THE TARGET —

>> IF I JUST AIM AT THE BUNKER, THAT’S WHAT I SHOULD DO. >> THE ODDS OF HITTING IT CLOSE IS STILL LOW. >> YOU ARE SAYING LET IT FADE TO THE BUNKER? >> LIGHT A STRAIGHT FIVE AND HIT IT HARDER AT THE RIGHT EDGE OF THE GREEN.

217 FRONT, 190 KIND OF COVERS THE WATER ON THAT RED STAKE. AT LEAST GIVES US A CHANCE TO SAW A GOOD LINING UP THERE. >> LISTEN, YOU ARE SWINGING IS GOOD. >> THIS RIGHT TO THE GREEN STRAIGHT. >> LOVE IT. >> LET’S SEE IT. >> WE’LL REMEMBER BACK TO THE

CHAMPIONSHIP YEARS AGO. THAT WAS A COMPLETELY OPPOSITE CONVERSATION. >> HE’S ACTUALLY LISTENING NOW, IS HE? >> ADAM DIDN’T WANT HIM TO DRY AND HOOK A FAIRWAY BUNKER SHOT OVER THE WATER ONTO THE GREEN AND HE DID IT AND SPLASHED IT.

>> HE KIND OF FAN THAT OUT TO THE RIGHT. WILL HE HIT THAT BUNKER? NO. THAT’S NOT BAD. I DON’T THINK. >> NOT AT ALL. ANTHONY KIM TO FINISH HIS DAY WITH 11 CONSECUTIVE PAR. IT WAS A REALLY, REALLY TOUGH START TO ROUND TWO. THAT’S PRETTY IMPRESSIVE. HE CAN HOLD HIS HEAD HIGH.

NO QUESTION. >> DOM, CAN YOU TRANSLATE? >> I WAS WAITING FOR JARED TO DO IT. >> I UNDERSTAND A LITTLE BIT OF IT. >> I KNOW THANK YOU AND BUY A DONKEY. >> THERE IS GOT TO BE A PUNCH LINE TO THAT. >> IT IS CHEAPER THAN A HORSE.

>> OH, THAT SAME LINE. MAYBE JUST A TOUCH RIGHT. NOW, HE HAS A BUNKER TO DEAL WITH, I THINK? >> MUCH TOUGHER SHOT THAN JON HAS. HERE IS LEWIS. >> BIG ADVANTAGE COMING OUT OF THE FAIRWAY HERE. GOING TO HAVE TO LAND ALL THE WAY BACK. TOTALLY 55.

ROUGH, THAT BALL IS SITTING ALL THE WAY DOWN AND IT IS NOT LOOKING PRETTY. >> BE HAPPY IT IS A LITTLE BIT INTO THE WINDOW. >> YEAH, AN AWKWARD ANGLE. HE’S GOT TO MAKE SURE HE CARRIES THAT BUNKER, ESPECIALLY THAT DOWN SLOPE.

DIDN’T COME OUT THE WAY HE EXPECTED AT ALL. BRYSON. SLIGHTLY BETTER ANGLE FOR SURE COMPARED TO OWAKOS. >> AS HE SAID ON THE PODCAST, HE GETS FRUSTRATED AND FEELING ALL THE ANGER. I AM SURE HE’S GOING TO ASK HIMSELF THE RIGHT QUESTION AFTER TODAY.

TRYING TO IMPROVE ON SOME OF THE MISTAKES. THAT’S NOT HIS BEST EITHER. LUCAS HERBERT OUT OF THREE, LEAVING SHORT HIS BIRDIE EFFORT. THE LIV GOLF LEAGUE CONTINUES TO CHANGE THE WAY THE GAME IS PLAYED AND IMPROVING ON AN ALREADY AMAZING FAN EXPERIENCE LIKE ANYTHING IN

GOLF TO SEE IT FOR YOURSELF IN 2024, SCAN THAT QR CODE ON THE SCREEN NOW FOR TICKETS FOR FUTURE EVENTS. NEXT WEEK, WE ARE BRINGING THE LEAGUE TO HONG KONG. WE ARE ALMOST SOLD OUT. WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU THERE. IN APRIL, LIV GOLF IS BACK IN

MIAMI AND LOOKING FOR A GREAT WEEK IN SOUTH FLORIDA. GET YOUR TICKETS AND ENJOY THE GOLF. I CAN’T WAIT TO GET TO HONG KONG NEXT WEEK ONCE WE HAVE A GREAT CHAMPIONSHIP SUNDAY TOMORROW. IT WILL BE MY FIRST VISIT TO THE COUNTRY AND DOM CAN SHOW

US THE SIGHTS AND SOUNDS. IT IS GOING TO BE A TERRIFIC ATMOSPHERE THERE IN ALL THREE DAYS. >> NOT A DIFFICULT BUNKER SHOT AND HE WON’T BE SUPER HAPPY WITH THAT ONE. >> BOGEYED HIS FINAL HOLE YESTERDAY. >> JUST CLIPPING OFF THE TOP AND CHECK IT OUT.

>> SIMPLE AS THAT. >> YEP. I WOULD SAY THAT’S PRETTY GOOD. [APPLAUSE] DUSTIN JOHNSON MAKING A YOUNG MAN’S DAY SIGNING HIS GLOVE. THANK YOU. A TREASURE. MEMENTO OF A TRIP TO LIV GOLF. HE’LL GROW INTO IT. JON RAHM, A COUPLE OF OPTIONS HERE, HE CAN BASICALLY DO

WHATEVER HE WANTS, TRY TO CARRY IT OVER OR RUN IT SHORT AND LET IT GO UP OVER. >> I THINK JUDGING BY HIS PRACTICE SWINGS, IT IS GOING TO BE LANDING IN THE FLAT AREA ON THE FRONT THIRD OF THE GREEN, LET IT ROLL OVER

THE SLOPE AND TRICKLE DOWN TO THE HOLE, I THINK THAT’S THE EASIEST SHOT. THE HIGH PERCENTAGE ONE. THERE YOU GO. IT IS JUST ABOUT THE DISTANCE AND LOOKING PRETTY GOOD, YOU KNOW? NOT QUITE AS GOOD BUT PRETTY GOOD. [APPLAUSE] >> THE EMPHASIS IS GOING TO

BE ON NEIMAN TO SAVE IS PAR HERE. MEAN MEANWHILE OOSTHUIZEN HERE. >> HE’S 11 UNDER. WELL, ADRIAN, NOT MUCH IS GOING ON HIS WAY TODAY. HE COULD END THE DAY WITH AN EAGLE HERE ON 18. >> OTHER THAN THE ONE PUTTY HE DID MAKE MOMENTS AGO,

THAT’S BEEN KIND OF SYMBOLIC OF HIS DAY REALLY STRUGGLING WITH THE SPEED AND A LOT OF PUTTS UP SHORE. JON RAHM TO WIN THE DAY ON TEN UNDER PAR. [APPLAUSE] SU-ANN, STRAIGHT TO YOU. >> TALK ABOUT THAT RUN. >> YEAH, I FEEL LIKE IT WAS REALLY AROUND.

I WAS REALLY PATIENT AND I KNOW I WAS PLAYING GOOD AND A LITTLE TOUGHER. THIS COURSE, MY FIRST SEVEN OR AG HOLES, NOBODY IS GOING TO WAIT TOO LOW. I FOCUS ON EVERY SHOT I WAS HITTING AND START MAKING BIRDIES. I MADE A LOT OF BIRDIES ON

THE LAST COUPLE OF HOLES. YEAH, I THINK THAT’S WHY I THINK THINGS ARE REALLY GOOD. >> WELL, WATCHING YOU PLAY AND WATCHING YOU WALK IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS AROUND THE GOLF COURSE, YOU ARE OOZING WITH CONFIDENCE. WHERE IS THAT CONFIDENCE COMING FROM?

>> YEAH, I MEAN I THINK JUST EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING WAS GOING ON OBVIOUSLY RIGHT NOW, NOT BEING ON THE MAJOR, TO GET BETTER. ALL THE GUYS ARE AWESOME. I SEE EVERYBODY ON OUR CIRCLE IS PUSHING THE SAME DIRECTION WHICH IS NICE. IT IS GOOD TO GO BACK AND SEE

THE GUYS TALK ABOUT IT AND HAVE FUN AND TRY TO DO OUR BEST. >> WITH THE MASTERS AROUND THE CORNER AND YOUR GAME IS PEAKING NICELY, HOW CONFIDENT YOU WITH ADDING THAT GREEN JACKET INTO YOUR CLOSET? >> DIDN’T THINK TOO FAR FROM THAT.

I GOT TO GO THERE AND KEEP TRYING TO DO THIS AND WHAT I AM DOING HERE. YEAH, I MEAN IT IS ONE OF THOSE TOURNAMENTS THAT I THINK IF I AM HITTING THE DRIVER THE WAY I AM HITTING, I SHOULD BE DOING PRETTY GOOD.

>> WELL PLAYED TODAY AND THANKS FOR THE CHAT. >> THANK YOU. DOM, YOU GOT CHARLES SCHWARTZEL WITH YOU. >> YOU MADE A REALLY NICE PAR AND SOME NICE MOMENTUM, IS THAT THE CASE? >> YEAH. I KEPT AROUND AND GOING. I HIT A GOOD IRON SHOT INTO

12 AND THAT SORT OF FEELING LIKE A TWO-SHOT SWING. YEAH, ANOTHER GOOD SIDE ON 13. IT WAS LIKE ONE NOT SO GOOD AND THE NEXT GOOD IRON SHOT. IT WAS NICE TO FINISH WITH A BIRDIE. >> IT IS A GOLF COURSE WHERE

DO YOU WANT THIS WIND TO BLOW LIKE THIS TOMORROW OR DIFFERENT CONDITIONS, MAYBE A DIFFERENT DIRECTION JUST TO MAYBE MIX IT UP A LITTLE BIT AND MAKING IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR EVERYBODY? >> I THINK UP ON TOP OF THE BOARD THERE IS A BETTER WIND,

IT STOPS THE GUYS FROM COMING FROM BEHIND. THERE ARE A LOT OF GUYS WITHIN REACH AS WE HAVE SEEN. THERE ARE A FEW LOW SCORES OUT THERE. STRONGER WIND. >> IT IS ANOTHER TIGHT SUNDAY. ARE YOU A LEADER BOARD WATCHER ON A SUNDAY WHEN YOU

ARE IN CONTENTION? >> YOU CAN’T HELP IT, YOU KNOW? THEY’RE SO BIG AND IN YOUR FACE. >> ABSOLUTELY. >> GOOD PLAYING, GOOD LUCK TOMORROW. >> STINGER ARE SEVEN SHOTS CLEAR OF SMASH IN THE TEAM COMPETITION. WE’LL BE BACK VERY SHORTLY TO WRAP THINGS UP HEREAFTER AN

ENTHRALLING DAY OF GOLF AT THE GREENS ON THE SHORE OF THE RED SEA. MANY OF THE HIGHL HTS AND CHAT, STAY WITH US. >> GREAT WAY TO START THE DAY, LIV GOLF BREAKFAST. THAT COULD BE A THING. PRIMETIME, DOWN UNDER. AS I MENTIONED ALL THE PLAYS,

I AM SURE WE ARE WATCHING THE ALLEGIANCE STADIUM IN LAS VEGAS TO START THEIR SEASON. CAM SMITH. AT 3:00 A.M. JUST TO WATCH MY FANTASY TEAM, THERE YOU GO. THAT’S ANOTHER WAY. LIV GOLF FANTASY AVAILABLE ON THE LIV GOLF PLUS APP. >> I WOKE UP AT 3:00 A.M.

JUST TO VISIT THE BATHROOM. [LAUGHTER] >> AND 4:00 A.M. AND 5:00 P.M. >> YES. AT LEAST I GOT OUT. >> #LIVBROADCAST TO GET INVOLVED. TOMORROW CHAMPIONSHIP SUNDAY IS GOING TO BE ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING. JOAQUIM NEIMAN IS AT IT AGAIN. SIX UNDER 64 TODAY. ONLY TWO PLAYERS WENT LOWER.

THAT WAS JASON KOKRAK. HE’S IN THE BOX SEED BY TWO SHOTS GOING INTO CHAMPIONSHIP SUNDAY OVER CHARLES SCHWARTZEL AND OOSTHUIZEN AND INCLUDING JON RAHM ARE NINE UNDER PAR. >> SO, THAT’S THE PYLON AT THE END OF SUPER SATURDAY. WE HEAD INTO CHAMPIONSHIP SUNDAY WITH JOAQUIM NEIMAN

WITH A TWO-STROKE LEADER. LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS, A CLUSTER OF PARS TO START THE ROUND BUT HE GOT GOING. HE CAUGHT A 63 IN ROUND ONE AND BOGEYED HIS FINAL HOME YESTERDAY. HE PUT THAT BEHIND HIM TODAY. THIS IS FOR PAR.

THIS IS A BIG MOMENT. JON RAHM IS PLAYING EXCELLENT ON THE STAGE AS WELL. HE HELD HIS NERVE AND HELD HIS GROUND HERE, NIEMANN. THE BIRDIES STARTED TO FLOW. HIS SECOND SHOT AT TEN. HE MADE BIRDIE THERE. A BIRDIE OPPORTUNITY AT THE PAR 4, 12TH, VERY CONFIDENTLY DONE.

IT IS 17, ALSO PAR FOUR. [APPLAUSE] BIRDIED AT 18 AND POWERED HIS HOLE. HE’S PLAYING SOME OF THE BEST GOLF NOW. WE ARE LOOKING FOR HIS THIRD WING IN SIX STARTS TOMORROW. THIRD LAST WEEK AND THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES AND HE LEADS BY TWO GOING INTO THE FINAL ROUND.

YOU CAN’T FOLLOW THE WORK ETHIC AND THE QUALITY AT THE MOMENT BEING PRODUCED BY JOAQUIM NIEMANN. HE WAS LEADING BY TWO AS IT TURNS OUT GOING INTO THE FINAL RUN AND LOST THAT LEAD TOWARDS THE END. HE KEPT GOING AND GOING AND

GOT HIS NOSE IN FRONT AGAIN AND WON THE PLAYOFF. HE’S A WORLD CLASS PLAYER PLAYING AT THE TOP OF HIS GAME. HE’LL BE HARD TO BEAT TOMORROW. >> HE WAS TALKED ABOUT AS ONE OF THE EMERGING SUPERSTARS OF THE GAME AND THEN OBVIOUSLY

HE DID A GREAT DEAL OF HIS PREVIOUS CAREER JOINED LIV AND CONTINUED ALONG THAT PROCESS. HE’S PLAYING AGAINST TWO OF THE REIGNING FOUR MAJOR CHAMPIONS. HE’S PLAYING AGAINST A HOST OF OTHER PEOPLE AND STILL MANY OF THEM ARE IN THEIR PRIME WHO ARE MAJOR

CHAMPIONS. SIGNIFICANTLY DEEP FIELD FOR A F54 PLAYER FIELD. HE’S THE ONE GETTING TALKED ABOUT NOW. >> HIS OWN ADMISSION, HE DIDN’T PLAY HIS BEST GOLF LAST YEAR. IS THERE ANYTHING YOU SEE NOTICEABLE THAT HE’S DOING DIFFERENTLY THIS YEAR? >> HE’S MAKING PUTTS 5 AND 6

OFF THE HOLE. WHAT IT DOES IF YOU DO MISS THE GREENS, YOU FEEL CONFIDENT IN GETTING UP AND DONE. IT COMES DOWN TO 6 OR 7 PUTTING CIRCLES AROUND THE HOLE. >> DAVID, YOU GOT TO MEET CHRISTIAN FOR CLUB 54 OF THE

LIV GOLF HOST GAME SHOW. >> IT IS GOING TO TAKE ME A WHILE. WE’LL SEE YOU AGAIN TOMORROW MORNING. ALL THE BEST, BE SURE TO TUNE IN, JASON KOKRAK TODAY, 62. >> JASON KOKRAK IS ANOTHER ONE OF THE MANY PLAYERS NOT AFRAID TO GO LOW.

>> WE WERE AT 59 AT ONE POINT. >> I KIND OF MADE IT ARTIFICIALLY. NOBODY IS GOING TO BIRDIE HIS 17TH HOLE TODAY. THIS IS BIRDIE AT 15. 62 IS THE LOWEST SCORE OF THE FIELD TODAY. ONE FEWER THAN ABE ACER. 22 UNDER PAR. THAT’S SEVEN BEHIND STINGER GC.

JASON KOKRAK, WE HAVE SEEN IT TIME TIME AGAIN, HE’S NOT THE FIRST TIME HE’S GONE INTO CHAMPIONSHIP SUNDAY NEAR THE TOP OF THE LEADER BOARD, WHAT DOES HE NEED TO DO TOMORROW TO PERHAPS GET THAT LIV GOLF TITLE? >> YOU CAN TALK ABOUT THAT A

MILLION DIFFERENT WAYS, ACTUALLY. JASON KOKRAK WHEN HE’S PLAYING WELL FEELS LIKE HE CAN COMPETE AGAINST ANYBODY. WHAT HE NEEDS TO DO DIFFERENTLY TO GET OVER THAT HUMP AND TO PUT YOUR FINGER ON IT IS A BILLION DOLLAR QUESTION. HE NEEDS TO FEEL LIKE HE’S

FOCUSING ON THE JOBS AT HANDS. HE NEEDS TO NOT THINK ABOUT THE PRIZE, THE POT OF GOLD AND KEEP DOING WHAT HE’S DONE SO WELL. WHEN HIS CONFIDENCE IS AS HIGH AS HE IS RIGHT NOW, HE’S FEELING COMFORTABLE ON THE GREEN, HE HAS TO BLOCK OUT

THE REST OF THE NOISE. BOY, WHAT A FEATHER TO GET A WIN. >> BROOKE KOEPKA AND McDOWELL TALKING ABOUT ABILITY. AK STARTED HIS SECOND ROUND. REMEMBER HE’S BEEN MISSING FROM THE WORLD OF GOLF FOR ALMOST 12 YEARS. HIS THIRD AT 18. HE GOT A LITTLE SKIMMER OFF

THE WATER AND INTO THE SAND AND AT LEAST, AT THIS POINT, THIS IS A REAL TEST. HE BARELY PLAYED A ROUND OF GOLF IN OVER A DECADE. HE WAS 12 OVER. HE EVENTUALLY PARRED HIS 11 HOLES WHICH MUST FEEL FANTASTIC. >> THAT DOES NOT SOUND GREAT

WHEN YOU ARE WATCHING PROFESSIONAL GOLF, YOUR 11 HOLES. HE’S PROFESSIONAL IN THE TECHNICAL SENSE OF THE GAME THAT HE’S PLAYING FOR MONEY. THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT A GUY WHO TAKES 12 YEARS OFF NO MATTER HOW MUCH TALENT YOU HAVE THAT’S GOING TO LEAD YOU

TO BELIEVE THAT’S POSSIBLE AT A WORLD CLASS FACILITY AGAINST THE WORLD CLASS FIELD. >> IT WAS GETTING AWAY FROM HIM EARLIER THIS SECOND ROUND. 11 STRAIGHT PARS FOR AK. GREAT TO SEE HIM BOUNCE BACK AFTER A TOUGH START YESTERDAY. I SAY THIS EVERY SATURDAY.

IT COULD BE A CHAMPIONSHIP SUNDAY FOR THE AGES. >> YEAH. >> IT IS NOT HYPERBOLE. >> NO, IT IS NOT A HYPERBOLE. ABSOLUTELY NOT. I DON’T WANT TO SIT HERE AND SOUNDS LIKE I AM A SALES MAN FOR LIV GOLF, I WORK FOR THEM

AND I AM A FAN OF IT. THAT’S THE NATURE OF WHAT WE HAVE ASSEMBLED HERE BASED ON THOSE NAMES YOU SEE RIGHT THERE AND ANOTHER 42 OTHER. >> SCHWARTZEL LEAD BY TWO AND TORQUE CC LOOKING AROUND. IT IS TIME TO SWITCH OVER TO

CLUB 54, THE POST ROUND SHOW WITH CHRISTIAN AND FRIENDS WHICH COULD BE FOUND GLOBALLY ON LIV GOLF AND ALL THE LIV GOLF YOUTUBE CHANNEL, BE SURE TO TUNE IN FOR TOMORROW FOR A FINAL ROUND AT 11:00 A.M. LOCAL TIME, JEDDAH, 1:00 A.M. EASTERN IN THE USA.

WE’LL SEE YOU THEN. >> WELCOME TO THE 54. WE ARE LIVE RIGHT HERE IN JEDDAH. I HAVE DON LAUGHING BY MY SIDE. HE MUST BE EXCITED AND IT IS THE END OF DAY TWO AND JOAQUIM NIEMANN FINISHING THIS DAY AT THE TOP OF THE LEADER BOARD.

WE’LL TALK ABOUT ALL OF THAT AND MORE AT THE CLUB 54 POST ROUND SHOW. I AM YOUR HOST CHRISTIAN CROSBY. AND JOINING ME IS DOM WITH THE BIGGEST SMILE. >> I AM SMILING BECAUSE I HAVE NOT BEEN CALLED BABY FOR A LONG TIME. >> I AM LOVING IT.

>> YOU HAD A GOOD TIME TODAY. YOU GOT TO FOLSOM FOLSOM TALENTED GUYS, WHY NOT START WITH JON RAHM? >> YES, A BIT OF DAY FOR JON RAHM. HE KIND OF STALLED OF THE WIND AND HE WAS HITTING A COUPLE OF SQUIRRELY ONE.

HE SAID MY GAME WAS KIND OF THE SAME YESTERDAY BUT THE PUTTS — >> YOU THINK THE WIND HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT? >> NO, SIMILAR WINDS. THIS IS THE WIND THAT BLOWS EVERY TIME. MOST OF THESE GUYS BEEN HERE MULTIPLE TIMES.

THEY KNOW HOW TO PLAY THE GOLF COURSE. HE’S BURNING THE EDGES. THAT’S THE DIFFERENCE IN THE SCORE. >> LET’S LOOK AT SOME OF HIS HIGHLIGHTS FROM TODAY. DOM, HELP US THROUGH IT. HERE IS JON RAHM. HERE ARE SOME MOMENTS FROM TODAY. >> GREAT DRIVE ON THE FIRST

HOLE, A LITTLE BIT LONG AND I THOUGHT HERE WE GO, WE ARE OFF TO THE RACES. HE MAY SHOOT ANOTHER 62 TODAY AND HAD A GOOD CHANCE AND DIDN’T MAKE IT. HE MISSED A COUPLE OF DECENT OPPORTUNITIES. THIS IS A FANTASTIC SHOT. I CAN’T BELIEVE HOW MUCH THIS

MAN GET OUT OF THE ROCK. IT WAS NOT A VERY GOOD LINE AND LOOK AT THAT. 3.5-FEET FROM THE HOLE. HE WOULD BIRDIE IT. HE GOT THAT SWAGGER WALK RIGHT THERE. >> HE GOT A GOOD READ FROM CHARLES SCHEWARTZEL HERE. THIS IS A GREAT PUTT JUST TOPPLES IN.

THEY WERE AT THE FRONT AT THIS TIME. >> LOOK AT THAT. >> THEY’RE RUNNING AROUND THE GOLF COURSE TO MAKE UP TIME. THE REFEREE WARNED THEM HAD THEY GONE OVER THERE A LOT OF TIME, THEY COULD HAVE BEEN PENALIZED. >> YOU ARE THERE WITH HIM,

WHAT’S HIS MOOD AND TEMPER LIKE WHEN THINGS ARE GOING RIGHT? >> YOU CAN TELL WITH JON RAHM WHEN THINGS ARE GOING RIGHT AND ARE NOT. HE’S A CHARACTER. HE ALWAYS HAS BEEN. WHEN HE’S UPSET OF HIMSELF, THE WORLD KNOWS IT. IT IS THE WORLD THAT HE GETS

HIMSELF FIRE UP TO MAKE BIRDIES AND PLAY. >> ANYTHING A FAN WATCHING THIS WOULD WANT TO KNOW ABOUT JON RAHM THAT YOU NOTICED FROM FOLLOWING HIM AROUND ALL DAY? >> YOU KNOW – >> I AM PUTTING YOU ON THE SPOT. >> NO.

WHEN YOU LOOK AT HIM, HE’S INTIMIDATING. HE’S A BIG MAN. THE BOSS GUYS ARE BIG. HE’S AN INTIMIDATING LOOKING GUY BUT WHEN I AM OUT ON THE FIELD — >> LIKE YOU. >> YOU KEEP TRYING TO GET ME TO THE GYM. >> I WILL SEE YOU TONIGHT.

>> WHEN I AM ON THE FAIRWAY AND I WILL GO AND WALK WITH HIM AND HAVE A LITTLE CHAT. HE’S A LOVELY MAN AND A VERY INTELLIGENT MAN, TOO. LET’S TALK ABOUT CHARLES SCHWARTZEL, YOU HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING HIM ALL DAY AS WELL.

>> MASTERS CHAMPION, BACK IN 2011 WHEN WE MADE FOUR BIRDIES IN A ROW TO WIN THAT MASTER. HE PUTTED IT WELL. HE ALWAYS HAD A MARVELOUS GOLF SWING. STRUGGLED WITH THE DRIVE BUT HE FOUND THE RIGHT DRIVE. THAT WAS ALSO ON THE NIGHT.

HE HAD A BETTER NIGHT THAN JON RAHM. HE MADE A HUGE PASS, 11, WHICH I ASKED HIM ABOUT IT. HE SAID THAT WAS MASSIVE. >> ALL RIGHT, WE’LL TAKE A LOOK BACK AT THE STINGER AND SEE WHAT THEY DID LAST SEASON. CHECK IT OUT.

>> WE STARTED PLAYING WELL IN AUSTRALIA, WE HAD A GOOD CHANCE THERE. >> I THINK WE HAD THREE OR FOUR PLACES, THE CONSISTENCY IS THERE, WE NEED TO GET OVER THE LAST HURDLE. >> BRANDON WAS PLAYING PLASTIC GOLF AND SO IS DEAN. WE WERE RIGHT THERE.

SO, I WAS WATCHING THE LEADER BOARD THE WHOLE TIME. I WOULD LOOK UP AND MAN, WE ARE STILL THREE BEHIND, SORT OF CHANGED. >> WE HAVE A HORSE RACE. I HIT A REALLY GOOD WAY AT 10 OR 12-FEET. >> WHAT A CLIMAX WE HAVE HERE?

>> I SAID MAN, IT IS GOING TO BE SO GOOD WHEN THEY’RE ALL IN. WHETHER I HIT A GOOD PUTT OR NOT, THIS IS GOING TO GO IN. BURMASTER. HE MAKES IT AND HE KNOWS THE SIGNIFICANCE AND SO DOES HIS CAPTAIN OOSTHUIZEN. >> BRANDON THE SAME TIME

BIRDIED 17. >> BRANDON GRACE, 17 ON THE PAR, STINGER 40. THEY LEAD THE FOUR ACES BY ONE. >> I LOOKED UP AT THE BOARD AND WE WERE LEADING AND I GOT NERVOUS. ARE YOU CRAZY? WE RUSHED AND SIGNED OR CAUSE AND RAN. >> IF HE MAKES IT, THEY’LL

WIN THE TEAM’S TITLE. HE MAKES IT. >> STINGER. >> I SAW THE TEAMMATES GOING CRAZY AND I KNEW WE HAVE WON IT. >> BURMASTER, DELIGHTED. THEY SEALED THE FOUR ACES BY A SINGLE SHOT. >> I WAS EXCITED AND MORE EXCITED TO SPRAY THE OTHER THREE GUYS WITH CHAMPAGNE.

WE GOT DEEP AND WE WON THIS. IT WAS NICE THAT EVERYBODY PITCHED IN AND WE DID IT. >> GREAT GOING, GUYS! [CHEERS] >> ALWAYS LOVE TO SEE THAT BEHIND THE SCENES. HERE ARE FANS SUPER EXCITED, OBVIOUSLY OF THE LAST TWO DAYS WE HAVE. CHECK THIS OUT, DOM, AK

PUTTING — GREAT START TO THE DAY LIV GOLF BREAKFAST IN NYC. A WHOLE LOT OF EXCITEMENT PER USUAL ON SOCIAL MEDIA. WE HAVE A GOOD FRIEND JOINING US TO TALK ABOUT MORE, SU-ANN HENG, WHAT’S UP? >> WHAT’S UP CHRISTIAN? YOU GOT TO SEE SCHWARTZEL? HE

SAID HE WORKED SO HARD ONCOMING TOGETHER. HE SAID A YEAR MAKES A DIFFERENCE. HE’S STILL REALLY YOUNG. A YEAR OUT HERE HAVE MADE HIM GROW SO MUCH AND MATURED SO MUCH. THE WAY HE MANAGED HIS GAME HAS BEEN ONE OF THE BIG DIFFERENCE.

THE ONE THING THAT STOOD OUT THE MOST OF WHAT HE SAID IS HE TRULY BELIEVES THAT HE’S ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS IN THE WORLD. HE CERTAINLY PLAYS LIKE IT. >> WE HAVE MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT JOAQUIM. HERE IS A SHOT IN THE RANGE RIGHT NOW.

CAMERON SMITH OUT THERE AS WE SPEAK. LOOKS LIKE HE’S GETTING SOME SHOTS HERE. DOM, YOU WANT TO SPEAK AFTER A LONG DAY, WHAT GETS A GUY OUT THERE AFTER A LONG DAY LIKE THIS? >> WELL, THESE GUYS ARE PROFESSIONAL. THEY ARE SEEKING PERFECTION.

YOU CAN’T FIND IT IN THIS GAME. CAM, HE’S PRACTICING HIS DRIVER. THAT’S THE CLUB THAT GIVES HIM THE MOST TROUBLE. SO, HE’S ALWAYS WORKING HIS DRIVER AND SHORTENING HIS ARM SWING. YOU SOMETIMES SEE HIM PRACTICING A BALL BETWEEN HIS WRIST. THAT MAKES HIS BACK SWING SHORTER.

SOMETIMES IT WORKS. HE’S OUT THERE GRINDING. HE’S ALWAYS OUT THERE SHORTENING THAT SWING. IS THAT RIGHT? >> HE’S KEEPING IT A LITTLE WIDER SHORTER AND MAKING SURE THAT WIDTH STAYS THERE. AS DOM HAS ALREADY MENTIONED, THIS CLUB GIVES HIM SO MUCH TROUBLE. THE MINUTE CAM HITS IT MORE

ON THE FAIRWAY, HE’S IN STOPPABLE. HE’S SO GOOD. LAST YEAR HE WAS LAST IN DRIVING, WAS HE IN ONE EVENT >> GREEN IN REGULATION. >> AND END UP LEADING THE EVENT AND LEADING IT. >> AT BEDMINISTER HE WAS DOWN. >> HE’S A TRUE GRINDER AND

HE’S WORKING ON THE SAME STUFF AS HE’S WORKING ON FOR YEARS. >> I SEE HE COMES OUT THREE OR FOUR TIMES A YEAR AND WORKING ON THE SAME THING, NEVER CHANGES. >> HE’S A PROCESS GUY, CAM. HE DOES NOT DO VERY MUCH DIFFERENT.

HE STICKS TO THE THINGS THAT WORK. YOU SEE A LOT OF THE BEST PLAYERS OUT HERE DO THAT AND THEY DON’T TRY TO FIND AN ALIXAR. IT IS ALWAYS THE SAME GHOST THAT HUNTS YOU. LET’S GET BACK TO JOAQUIM NIEMANN, ANYTHING THAT YOU

SAW STOOD OUT TODAY? >> JUST WATCHING HIM AND THROUGH THE SEASON LAST YEAR WHEN HE PLAYED IN AUSTRALIA AND DUBAI, HE’S GOT A LOT OF CONFIDENCE OOZING OUT OF HIM. JUST THE WAY HE WALKS AND THE WAY HE PLAYS AND THE WAY HE ATTACKS THE FAIRWAY.

CHOICES OFF THE TEES AND ATTACKING THOSE PINS. IT IS REALLY SHOWING THROUGH HIS DEMEANOR AND ALSO HIS GAME. IT IS REALLY IMPRESSIVE. HE’S PEAKING AT THE ABSOLUTE RIGHT TIME. >> SHALL WE JUMP INTO SOME HIGHLIGHTS? >> LET’S TAKE THESE HIGHLIGHTS UP.

>> I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU, TOO, GO AHEAD, DOM. >> HE PICKED UP SO MUCH LENGTH IN HIS DRIVER AND IT IS BECAUSE HE’S NOT AFRAID TO HIT THAT BIG HIGH DRAW. THIS IS A PAR THREE. >> YEAH, HE STARTED OUT WITH

SEVEN STRAIGHT PARS AND THEN LIT IT UP FROM HERE ON OUT. THIS BIG PUTT ON THE 9TH. >> THAT WAS FOR PAR? >> WOW, THAT WAS HUGE. >> THIS ONE ON THE TENTH, HE DROVE IT TO THIS POINT. >> HE’S WORKING WITH PENN

STATE ON THE SHORT GAME AND HE HAS IMPROVED AS GOOD AS HE WAS BEFORE. >> THIS IS ON THE 12TH FOR A BIRDIE AND HE’S BEEN WORKING HARD ON HIS PUTTING WITH HIS PUTTING COACH, ERIC AND THEY WORKED AND CHANGE HIS ROUTINE A LITTLE BIT, REALLY TRYING

TO KEEP THAT LEFT ARM LEADING AND TAKING A LOT OF THE HANDS OUT OF HIS PUTTING AND WORKED REALLY WELL FOR HIM. IT IS ONE OF THE AREAS FOR HIS GAME THAT HAS IMPROVED THE MOST. >> YOU ALSO SPEND SOME TIME WITH OOSTHUIZEN TODAY. >> I DID.

>> HOW WAS THAT? >> LET ME TELL YA, WALKING WITH LOUIE IS SO MUCH FUN. HE’S BY FAR THE FUNNIEST GUY ON THAT STINGER TEAM. HE PLAYED IN SO MANY MAJOR CHAMPIONSHIPS. HE HAS THE MOST RUNNER UPS IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP. IT IS A BIT OF A SHAME HE’S

NOT GOING TO BE IN THE MASTERS THIS YEAR. IT IS GOING TO BE DIFFERENT WITHOUT HIM BEING THERE. MAN, HE’S PLAYED SO WELL. HE’S WORKING A LITTLE BIT ON HIS TAKEAWAY. I SPOKE TO HIS CADDY, DUTCHY. HIS NICKNAME. >> I LOVE THAT NICKNAME. >> IF YOU WATCH HIS PRESTART

ROUTINE, HE’S TRYING TO START A LITTLE MORE ONLINE AND GETTING THE CLUB ON PLAIN. HE’S STRIKING THE BALL BEAUTIFULLY. >> AND HE GOT CONFIDENCE AND CAME SECOND LAST WEEK AND PLAYED BEAUTIFULLY. >> LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF HIS HIGHLIGHTS HERE. TALK US THROUGH IT DOM.

>> HIS SECOND SHOT. THIS WAS A FANTASTIC WEDGE PLAY. SOMETHING THAT STOOD OUT WAS HIS WEDGE GAME WAS SO SHARP. THAT TEMPO IN THIS WIND IS SUCH A BIG ADVANTAGE. THIS FOR A BIRDIE ON THE 11th. ROLL THAT ONE IN. >> WOW, HE WAS ALMOST IN THE

BUNKER THERE. >> A BALL CAUGHT ON THE 14. >> ALL RIGHT, WE’LL KEEP THE ENERGY GOING HERE AT CLUB 54 POST ROUND SHOW. LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT THE STINGER. CHECK IT OUT. >> WE REALLY ENJOY HAVE FUN ON THE GOLF COURSE. >> WE LIKE TO BE THE

UNDERDOGS AND WE GRIND IT UP. GOLF HAVE ALWAYS BEEN INDIVIDUALLY. THE PRESSURE IS A LOT MORE PLAYING IN A TEAM ENVIRONMENT. IT HEIGHTENS YOUR SENSES AND CONCENTRATION AND SOMETIMES YOU TEND TO GET BETTER. THE TEAM BRINGS OUT THE BEST IN THEM.

TO BE APART OF A TEAM FOR GOOD FRIENDS IS AMAZING. >> ♪ [CHEERS] >> NO WAY! >> I CAN’T DO MORE THAN THIS. >> THEY’RE LOOKING AT WHAT THE TEAM IS DOING AND KIND OF FORGET ABOUT YOURSELF. IT IS WORKING SO FAR. >> HONSTLY, IT IS BEEN QUITE

A COOL THING TO BE APART OF. >> OH, YOU ARE KIDDING. >> OH, YES! >> BEING PART OF A BRAND, THAT’S SOMETHING YOU DON’T EVER GET. GOLF IS A LEARNING SPORT AND THAT ASPECT IS REALLY COOL. >> HOPEFULLY, WE CAN EVEN IMPROVE AND SEE IF WE CAN WIN

THE OVERALL THIS YEAR. >> ABSOLUTELY LOVE SEEING THAT BEHIND THE SCENES. MOSTLY WHEN THESE GUYS GET TOGETHER. IT IS A REPORT THAT YOU DON’T SEE EVERYDAY. >> IT IS A TOUCH BY A DREAM. >> I REMEMBER LAST YEAR IN BEDMINISTER, OOSTHUIZEN WAS IN THE RESTAURANT EATING WITH

THE HAT THE ENTIRE TIME. >> IT ALSO ALWAYS IS IMPROVING. TO SEE IT FOR YOURSELF IN 2024, SCAN THE QR CODE ON THE SCREEN FOR TICKETS FOR FUTURE EVENTS. NEXT WEEK, WE ARE GOING TO HONG KONG, BABY! FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME AND

WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU THERE. GOLF WILL BE BACK IN MIAMI IN FLORIDA. GET YOUR TICKETS AND ENJOY THE GOLF. >> WE ARE HEADING TO DOM’S HOMETOWN. WHAT ARE WE DOING? >> THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER! >> UNBELIEVABLE. >> GET READY, HONG KONG! >> OH, YES.

YOU ARE READY FOR THIS? SIMPLY MASTERFUL TODAY. SEE YOU AT LIV GOLF, HONG KONG. >> ALL RIGHT, DOM, MY FIRST QUESTION AFTER SEEING THAT VIDEO, WHAT ARE WE DOING IN HONG KONG, MAN? >> WHY ARE YOU ASKING ME? >> I AM TOLD YOU KNOW WHAT WE

SHOULD DO THERE. >> THERE ARE LOTS TO DO. IT IS A BEAUTIFUL CITY. MY HOMETOWN, I AM REA Y EXCITED FOR IT BUT I AM ALSO DREADING IT IN A WAY — I AM NOT DREADING, I AM GOING TO BE SO BUSY AND PULLING LEFT AND RIGHT.

>> LET’S TALK A LITTLE BIT AND I WANT TO HEAR MORE ABOUT YOUR DAY FROM THE BOTH OF YOU. SOME OF YOUR BIGGEST TAKEAWAY AND SOMETHING YOU ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO TOMORROW. >> GO AHEAD, DOM, YOU TAKE THIS ONE. >> WELL, IT IS ALWAYS SUNDAY

AND THERE IS A FINAL LEAD R BOARD AND THERE IS GOING TO BE A WINNER. IT IS MY FAVORITE DAY OF THE WEEK AND THE END OF THE WEEK FOR US, TOO. WHICH IS ALSO NICE. I LIKE THE FINALITY OF IT. I LIKE THE INTENSITY WHEN YOU

ARE OUT THERE AND YOU SEE THESE GUYS ARE IN CONTENTION TO WIN A TOURNAMENT AND HOW HARD THEY TRY AND HOW MUCH IT MEANS. I GET A LOT FROM THAT. >> SU-ANN, WHAT ABOUT YOU? >> WE HAVE A STACK HIGH ON THE LEADER BOARD.

IT IS GOING TO BE EXCITING CHAMPIONSHIP SUNDAY. WE HAVE SEEN TWO PLAYOFFS HERE, DOM, BACK-TO-BACK. I AM CALLING A PLAYOFF TOMORROW. WE’LL BE WATCHING MORE GOLF ON THE 18TH GREEN, I GUARANTEE THAT. I AM REALLY EXCITED TO WATCH JOAQUIM. I REALLY ENJOYED WATCHING HIM

PLAY AND I KNOW HOW MUCH IT MEANS TO HIM AND, YOU KNOW, HE HAD A TOUGH SEASON LAST YEAR AND HE DIDN’T PLAY WELL AS HE WANTED TO. I WOULD LOVE TO WATCH HIM PLAY MORE. >> I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU. WE HAVE DAVID FLAHERTY JOINING US.

LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT HIS WTF FEATURE. >> I CAN TRACE IT ALL THE WAY BACK TO WHEN I USED TO CADDY FOR MY FATHER WHO PLAYED THE SAME THREE BUNKERS EVERYDAY AND SUNDAY MORNING. I WAS JUST ABOUT THE AGE GETTING SOPHISTICATED ENOUGH

TO KNOW WHAT THESE THEN WERE TALKING ABOUT. WE WERE WALKING AT THE FIRST TWO WITH MY DAD’S CLUBS AND MY FATHER TURNED TO THE DOCTOR AND SAYS, I HAVE TERRIBLE SLEEPING THESE DAYS. I THINK YOU NEED TO GIVE ME A SLEEPING PILL. HAVE YOU TRIED EVERYTHING?

YOU KNOW, I AM COUNTING SHEEP. MY FATHER SAID YES, I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING AND YOU NEED TO GIVE ME A SLEEPING PILL. I WILL TELL YOU WHAT YOU WILL DO TONIGHT, IMAGINE YOU OUT HERE ON THE FIRST TEE AND HIT A SHOT HERE OR THERE AND A

BUNKER AND PUTTER. BY THE TIME YOU GET TO THE TURN, YOU WILL BE ASLEEP. >> MY FATHER SAYS ALL RIGHT, I WILL GIVE IT A TRY. THE NEXT MORNING. HOW DID YOU SLEEP LAST NIGHT? >> NO, NOT GREAT. MY FATHER SAID, WELL, I HAD

THE TEE SHOT AND I MADE THE PUTT AND A DRIVER AND A THREE SHORT AND CHIPPED IN FOR EAGLE. I GET IT ON THE THIRD TEE AND IT ENDS UP HALFWAY DOWN THE HILL AND I HIT MY SECOND SHOT ON THE FRONT EDGE OF THE

GREEN AND I MADE THE LONGEST PUTT I EVER MADE IN MY LIFE. MY FATHER IS GOING TO BREAK RECORD. THE DOCTOR SAYS TO HIM, WHAT HAPPENS THERE? WELL, I WAS AWAKE ALL NIGHT LOOKING FOR THE BALL. THAT WAS THE DAY I LEARNED MY

FATHER WAS FUNNY AND I LEARNED HOW TO CURSE. >> YOU GOT TO LOVE DAVID FLAHERTY. [LAUGHTER] OH MY GOD! HERE IS A TWEET, THERE KOKRAK IS TAKING OVER JEDDAH. WE CAN ALL AGREE TO THAT. JOINING US IS MR. KOKRAK AND LOOK AT WHO WE HAVE HERE? MR. FLAHERTY.

>> YEAH, I LIMPED OVER THERE. IT TOOK ME A WHILE TO FIND YOU GUYS. >> YOU DID FINE. YOU ARE HERE. >> JASON, GREAT JOB TODAY? >> APPRECIATE IT. >> HOW ARE YOU FEELING? I FEEL GOOD, MUCH BETTER THAN THE FIRST ROUND.

WE’LL PUT OUR TEAM TO GO FOR THE WIN AND WE’LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS. >> A LOT OF GUYS GETTING OFF TO A SLOW START TODAY. YOU GOT OFF TO A GOOD WUND. WHAT WAS THE DIFFERENCE? >> I SAID IT BEFORE, I WANT

TO COMMIT TO THE SHOTS AND THE LINES I WAS TAKING. I BAILED OUT YESTERDAY. I WANT TO COMMIT TO THE LIEPS AND SHOTS THAT I HIT AND I SAW A FEW GOING IN EARLY. >> THAT GOLF COURSE IS GETTING FIRMER WITH THIS BREEZE AND THE SUN?

>> YEAH, A LITTLE BIT. >> YOU SAW THE GREENS GETTING A LITTLE BAKED OUT AND A COUPLE OF SPOTS A LITTLE CLICKER. YES, I THOUGHT THE GOLF COURSE LOOKED GREAT TODAY. >> WELL, YOU GOT A BUNCH OF PLAYERS BEHIND YOU AND HOW FAR DOM, THAT LEADER BOARD DO

YOU THINK THE GUYS HAVE A CHANCE? >> YOU SAW IT WITH MY ROUNDED A’S AND WITH JON RAHM AND A COUPLE OF GUYS YESTERDAY. THIS GOLF COURSE IS GETTABLE AND YOU KEEP THE FAIRWAY AND CONTROL YOUR GOLF BALL AND BE ABLE TO GIVE YOURSELF 10 OR

15 FOOTER. >> ARE YOU HOPING FOR A LITTLE MORE BREEZE TOMORROW, MAYBE? I LIKE THE BREEZE THAT WE HAD TODAY. I WILL TAKE THE SAME BREEZE. >> ALL RIGHT, LET’S GET IT TO YOUR HIGHLIGHTS. WE WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO TALK US THROUGH THESE. >> THAT WAS EIGHT IRON.

NO MORE THAN A SEVEN SHOT. IT WAS A PERFECT SHOT FOR ME. HIT IT ABOUT THREE FEET AND STRAIGHT UP THE HILL. THEN, 15, IT WAS A BAD TEE BALL BUT A GOOD SHOT FOR THE DESERT. 17 WAS A NICE LITTLE WEDGE. >> IT IS ALWAYS NICE WHEN YOU

CAN’T REMEMBER. >> I HIT A LOT OF IT OUT THERE TODAY. NUMBER THREE WAS A GREAT FIVE IRON IN THERE. PERFECT READ BY D. ROBIN. >> HOW MUCH DO YOU RELIE ON D. ROB WHEN IT COMES TO THE GOLF COURSE LIKE THIS AND WHEN YOU GET THESE SWIRLING

WINDS? >> I TOLD HIM, YOU HANDLE THE GREEN WALLING AND THE BALL STRIKING AND WE’LL BE FINE. >> YOU HAVE BEEN SMASHING IT. CONGRATULATIONS. >> THANK YOU. >> SHALL WE GET HIGHLIGHTS OF THE TEAM. >> GIVE US YOUR FEEDBACK AND INPUT. AND TALK ABOUT HOW FUN IT IS?

>> BROOKE IS ONE OF THE HOTTEST PLAYERS IN THE WORLD. ONE OF THE ALL TIMES BEST GUYS, TAYLOR GOOCH, WE’LL NEED HIM TOMORROW AND HE’LL BRING IT TOMORROW. I LOVE HIS STROKE. >> SO, THERE IS THIS THING THAT WE DO, WE CALL FORM

CHECK, THEIR STANCE AND WINGS. WE ARE GOING TO SHOW YOU AND YOU CHECK YOUR FORM. IT IS FAIRLY BORING IF YOU ARE REALLY NICE ABOUT IT. BE AS HONEST AS YOU CAN. DAVID, WE NEED YOUR ONE LINER FOR THIS, TOO. LET’S GET TO THE FOUR CHECK. SHORT BUT SWEET.

>> THAT LOOKS LIKE ME UNDER PRESSURE. >> THAT’S JON RAHM BACK SWING BUT TWICE AS FAST. >> SHORT BUT SWEET. >> THAT’S DEFINITELY A DRAW. OVER THE TOP, DEFINITELY A SLICE. >> A LITTLE POSTURE PROBLEMS THERE. MAY ACTUALLY BE ON THE TOILET OUT OF THE GAS.

>> HE MAY NEED MY GULF PUTTS A LITTLE LONGER. >> ANOTHER ONE OUT HERE. >> IF YOU ARE DRESSED LIKE THAT — >> A LITTLE MONTE FINISH. >> LOW INSIDE WITH A HIGH FINISH. >> YEAH, THAT’S WHAT WE CALLED THE NOSE AND ELBOW SYNDROME.

>> IT IS NOT GOOD FOR A WEDGE SHOT. >> ALL RIGHT. HERE IS ANOTHER ONE. STAND UP OUT OF IT. NOT BAD THOUGH. >> I LIKE THE FLOW. THE FLOW IS NICE. J JASON KOKRAK LIKES THE FLOW. >> WE CAN’T REALLY SEE. >> WOW! >> THERE IS A GOOD LITTLE

SWING RIGHT THERE. >> BY FAR ONE OF THE BEST SWINGS WE HAVE SEEN. >> AND SOME SPADE AS WELL. >> YEAH, 8-YEAR-OLD. WE NEED TO GET MY 8-YEAR-OLD SWINGING HARDER THEN. >> SMOKING, YOU SHOULD NOT BE SMOKING. >> HE’S RIGHT ON – >> THAT’S LIKE A LEFTY

McLLROY RIGHT THERE. I DON’T THINK IF I WOULD CHANGE ANYTHING. >> WE’LL SEE THAT KID IN A FEW YEARS, DOM. THAT WAS FUN, JASON. THANK YOU SO MUCH YOUR TIME. WE APPRECIATE IT. WE’LL TOSS TO A LOOK BACK AT SMASH GC IN VEGAS, BABY. >> THE BROOKS KOEPKA, ONLY

ONE HISTORY IN THE HISTORY A COUPLE OF SEASONS AGO. >> FOR ME, I THINK WE WERE LOOKING TO MAKE THIS TEAM BE AS GOOD AS IT POSSIBLY CAN. >> TERRIBLE. THEY ARE IN THIRD SPOT. >> OBVIOUSLY, I KNOW HE STILL GOT GAME AND PLENTY OF YEARS LEFT. >> G-MAC.

EXPECTATION LEVELS ARE THERE. THE MOTIVATION WAS REALLY NEEDED. >> WE HAVE A THREE-WAY TIE FOR THE TEAM’S LEAD. >> THE G MAC IS ONE OF THE GREEDIEST PLAYERS OF THE GAME. >> WE WERE ONE OR TWO AHEAD. >> THEY LEAD THE RANGERS. I AM A LEADER BOARD WATCHER,

I LIKE TO KNOW WHAT I NEED TO DO. >> SMASHING TEN UNDER PAR TODAY. >> NEXT THING YOU KNOW, I LOOK UP AND WE HAD A SEVEN — WHAT’S GOING ON? >> MY GOODNESS. >> WE CAME TOGETHER IN VEGAS. IT WAS A GOOD TIME TO HIT THE JACKPOT.

>> SPRAYING THE CHAMPAGNE A LITTLE LATER AS THE TEAM CHAMPIONS IS LOOKING GOOD. >> I AM PLEASED OF THIS TEAM AND I KNOW IT IS ONLY THE STAR AND I FEEL WE CAN CONTINUE DOING IT EVERY WEEK. >> BROOKS HAD A LOT OF

BELIEVES IN ME AND WAS NICE TO SHOW UP TODAY AND PLAYING WELL. >> SMASH GC, VICTORIOUS LIV GOLF LAS VEGAS. >> YOU WALK UP THE PODIUM AND I WAS ASKING THE GUYS, WHAT DO YOU DO UP HERE? I HAVE CERTAINLY HAVE NOT BEEN THERE.

I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO SEE WHAT THE TEAM CAN REALLY ACHIEVE. >> WHAT DO YOU THINK, DAVID? IS IT POSSIBLE THAT WE’LL SEE THE TEAM’S WINNER AGAIN? >> ABSOLUTELY. >> THEY ARE LOOKING STRONG, THERE IS NO QUESTION ABOUT THAT. >> I WANT TO TALK ABOUT

ANTHONY KIM COMING INTO THIS WEEK, BIGGEST STORY RETIRED AND WILD CARD, I AM TOLD FROM JERRY IT IS JUST HARD TO DO WHAT HE’S DONE IN GENERAL. >> IT IS A UNIQUE STORY, I CAN’T THINK OF ANOTHER ATHLETE IN ANOTHER SPORT THAT

HAS HAD THAT KIND OF A GAP AND HAD COME BACK. >> HE COULD HAVE DIPPED IS TOES TO SMALLER TOURNAMENTS AND THE REST. HE’S DOING A NEGATIVE CANNON BALL INTO THE DEEP END. YOU COULD NOT HAVE MORE PRESSURE. VERY FEW PLAYERS WILL HAVE

THIS KIND OF PRESSURE ON THEM. YOU KNOW, HE SHOT A COUPLE OF 76s. IT IS GOING TO TAKE HIM A LITTLE WHILE TO GET GOLF UNDER HIS BELT. ALL RIGHT, LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF HIS HIGHLIGHTS TODAY. I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR WHAT YOU

THINK ABOUT IT. THERE IS ANTHONY KIM. THESE ARE THE SHOTS AND YOU HAVE TO STRIKE THE BALL PERFECTLY. THESE ARE TOUGH TO GET YOUR HANDS-ON. >> ANOTHER ONE HERE. IS THIRD SHOT AT 18. I CALL THIS THE BARNES WALLACE. IT JUMPS OUT AND SOMETHING

YOU DON’T SEE, EXCEPT IN THE PRO AM. ONE THING THAT DID LOOK PRETTY GOOD, I THOUGHT HIS PUTTING STROKE. THAT’S SOMETHING, THERE IS AS FINE MOTOR SKILLS AND THAT’S 8TH FOR PAR. THOSE FINE MOTOR SKILLS SOMETIMES IS THE LAST TO COME BACK.

IT IS GREAT TO SEE AND SEE HIM BOUNCE BACK AND SETTLE IN. >> THAT’S A GOOD TWEET RIGHT THERE. >> WE LOUGH LOVE TO SEE IT. WHAT’S YOUR PREDICTION ON ANTHONY KIM TOMORROW? >> HE FINISHED 11 STRAIGHT PAR TODAY. THAT’S GOING TO MAKE HIM FEEL BETTER.

IT IS A LITTLE TOUGH. >> EVERYBODY CHECK OUT ANTHONY KIM. ♪ ♪ ♪ >> I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOU TALK ABOUT THAT FROM YOUR EXPERIENCE PERSONALLY. >> WELL, FROM MY EXPERIENCE, I PLAY MY PEAK YEARS WERE THE SORT OF MIDDLE ’80s TO THE EARLY ’90s.

WE DIDN’T GO STRAIGHT FROM THE 18TH GREENS TO THE PRACTICE. THERE WAS A DIVERSION TO THE BAR FIRST. [LAUGHTER] >> YOU CAN BE A BIG FAT GUY WITH BAD HABITS AND STILL WIN A LOT OF MONEY. LOOK AT THESE GUYS. THESE ARE REAL ATHLETES. >> JUST GETTING INTO

TOMORROW, IS THERE ANYONE THAT WE HAVE NOT BROUGHT UP THAT YOU NOTICE THAT’S RIGHT THERE AND WE ARE NOT GIVING THAT ATTENTION TO. >> MY DARK HORSE FOR TOMORROW IS NOT THAT DARK OF A HORSE. IT IS LOUIE OOSTHUIZEN, WHENEVER HE SWINGS WELL AND

PLAYS WELL, NOBODY MAKES THE GAME LOOKS PRETTIER. HE’S A PHENOMENAL PLAYER. >> IT IS AN INTERESTING DAY FOR JON RAHM. I WANT TO BRING HIM UP A LITTLE BIT. PREDICTIONS FOR WHAT HE DOES TOMORROW? >> I EXPECT JON RAHM TO BE IN THERE IN THE THICK OF THINGS.

IT IS DIFFICULT TO GET A PLAYER LIKE OUR LEADER, JOAQUIM NIEMANN, IT IS DIFFICULT TO GIVE HIM TWO SHOTS. YOU SAY TO ANY OF THESE GUYS, I AM GOING TO GO OUT AND GIVE YOU A SHOT OF NINE, DIFFICULT. WHEN THERE ARE THAT MANY

PEOPLE BEHIND YOU – WE SAW IN MEXICO AND IT KIND OF EVAPORATED ON HIM ONLY WHEN HE GOT BEHIND AND GUT IN THE GEAR AND ENDED UP WINNING THAT AT THE PLAYOFF. >> LET’S TALK ABOUT THE TEAM’S GAME, TEAM STINGER IS

REALLY, WE HAD SO MANY GUYS FROM THAT TEAM DOING WELL TODAY. WHY DO YOU THINK THAT IS? >> WELL, THEY LIKE TO PLAY IN THE WIND AND IT IS JUST FOUR TERRIFIC PLAYERS THAT HAVE GREAT COMRADERY AMONG THEM. THERE IS A TEAM SPIRIT THERE.

THEY ALL HAVE A TEAM SPIRIT. I THINK THEY IN PARTICULAR HAVE ONE THAT’S REALLY ESPECIALLY. WE HAVE BEEN SEEING POST RANGE COMPETITION, THERE ARE SOMEONE ELSE WHO DOES A WONDERFUL JOB ON THE GAME. RACHEL DRUMMOND. WHAT’S GOING ON? >> I HAVE THE BRIDGE TO BE

WITH ANDREW GETSON. >> MY PLEASURE, RACHEL. THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME ON. >> CONDITIONS WERE DIFFICULT TODAY. THE WIND WAS OFF. IT WAS HOT BUT IT WAS FUN. >> WELL, YOU ARE HERE. >> WE’LL TALK ABOUT AND YOU HAVE BEEN A FAN FOR A LONG TIME.

THE SCORE REFLECTS HIS A ABILITY, CAN YOU TELL ME WHY YOU LOVE HIS SWING. >> THE KEY THING IS HOW SHORT AND WIDE HE IS AND GIVING HIM TIME TO GET BACK INTO IT. HIS COURAGE IS SHOWING. THERE ARE SOME POSITIVES THERE. HE’LL GET BETTER AS TIME GOES ON.

>> ESPECIALLY WITH THESE CONDITIONS WITH WIND, IT IS GOOD TO MAKE PAR, IS IT? >> YES. YESTERDAY WE HAD THE WINDS OUT OF THE EAST AND TODAY SWITCHING BACK TO THE WEST. TODAY WAS OUT OF THE WEST THE WHOLE TIME. TODAY, ALL THOSE HARD HOLES

PLAY VERY HARD. IF YOU DIDN’T MAKE THAT SCORE UP ON THE EASY HALL, IT WAS TOUGH. >> IT IS LIKE AN OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP IN THE SPACE OF FIVE HOURS. NOR NORMALLY, YOU GET 7:00 A.M. >> THAT’S THE BEAUTY OF LIV. WIND CHANGES. IT IS FUN. >> IT IS TRICKY NOW.

LET’S HAVE A LITTLE LOOK. >> I WANT YOU TO TALK ME THROUGH IT. TELL ME WHAT YOU LOVE ABOUT HIS MOVES. >> THE BEAUTY HERE IS HOW MUCH WHIP HE’S GOING BACK. LOOK AT THAT LEFT ARM. THE THING I WANT YOU TO LOOK

AT, RACHEL, AT LENGTH IS HIS LEFT FOOT. WATCH AS HE COMES DOWN. HE DOES THIS LITTLE BOP AND ROTATES FOR IMPACT. HE’S DONE THAT. IT IS JUST INCREDIBLE MOTION. IF WE ROLL IT ALL THE WAY TO THE FINISH NOW, YOU SEE THE RELEASE, PERFECT FLYING AND

PERFECT PUTTING MOTION. I LOVE THAT FALL THROUGH, ANTHONY KIM. IF WE KEEP PLAYING THAT VIDEO AND THE FANS AT HOME WATCH HIS LEFT FOOT. IT IS REALLY SUBTLE BUT HE STORES ENERGY SO PERFECTLY. >> YOU HAVE BEEN CREDITED FOR BEING AN AMAZING COACH.

>> WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS MOVE? >> WHEN THE CLUB GETS STUCK BEHIND YOU, YOU LOSE PLACE. FOR THE GUYS AND GIRLS AT HOME, IT IS HARD TO HIT A GOLF SHOT. THE BODY CAN CONTROL THAT. >> I AM EXCITED ABOUT THIS.

YOU ARE GOING TO GIVE ME A TIP AND IT IS GOING TO BE AROUND FOOTWORK SO EVERYONE AT HOME COULD BE INSPIRED. >> I SEE HE WALKS ON IT. HE DOES NOT KNOW HE DOES IT BUT IT IS REALLY GOOD. >> IT IS IMPORTANT.

>> WE’LL DO A COUPLE PRACTICE RING. WHAT HE DOES IS HE LOWERS INTO HIS TOES. YOU SEE HIS CLUB COMES DOWN? >> THAT’S A REACTION. THE FOOTWORK, THAT’S IT. >> FOR EVERYBODY AT HOME, WE ARE NOT TRYING TO MOVE FORWARD. WE ARE TRYING TO KEEP OUR BODY MUTUAL.

THE ARM COMES DOWN AND WE RETATE FOR IMPACT. >> THE BIG THING IS WHEN WE ARE WORKING ON THAT. YOU SEE IT COMES DOWN AND IT TURNS BACK. HE’S STORING ENERGY VERY, WELL. THAT’S WHAT YOU ARE WORKING ON. >> SO MORE OF THE BODY

CONTROLLING THE CLUB THING. >> CORRECT. WHERE YOUR ARMS ARE. THE ULTIMATE FALL IS, FOR THE GUYS AND GIRLS AT HOME TO SLICE IT, THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE DOING. >> THAT’S DEAD AND GAME OVER. >> FEELING THE WEIGHT ON THE LEFT ARM AND ROTATE. >> THAT’S PERFECT.

>> DO I HAVE A GAME? DO I DO THIS IN SLOW-MO? >> WELL, THAT MADE ME LOOKED REALLY GOOD. >> YOU ARE COACHING. >> KEEP IT SIMPLE. >> SO, YOU ALSO SPOKE AB ABOUT – CAN YOU TALK US THROUGH THAT AS WELL.

>> IF WE HAD A NINE, I AM GETTING A LITTLE NERVOUS. >> TO GET THAT FEELING IF WE GO FROM ARMPIT TO ARMPIT, WELL FEEL HOW THE BODY MOVES MORE. I KIND OF WORK IN AN A POSITION AND B POSITION AND FULL SWING OF C.

WHAT I AM TRYING TO DO IS GET IN THE FIELD. IF I GOT TO MY ARMPIT AND I FEEL WHAT ANTHONY KIM IS FEELING OF THE LEFT, THE ARM WILL DROP IN AS YOU ARE DOING IT. AND I AM ROTATING AND LOOK HOW STABLE AND SQUARE THE

FACE IS. >> WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE TRADITIONAL SWINGS OVER THE YEARS, YOU SAW HILLS MOVED AND EVERYTHING. >> CORRECT? >> DO YOU THINK THAT WAS THE SAME THING? >> FOR SURE. >> WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT A, B, C, CAN YOU GO THROUGH THAT

WITH ME JUST FOR EVERYONE AT HOME. >> TO GET THE FEELING OF HOW THE BODY WORKS, IT IS IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND LIKE POSITIONS. IF WE KIND OF WORK AND I LOOK AT A, AS A PITCHER AND EVEN WITH THE 99. ONCE YOU GET THAT FEELING AND

UNDERSTANDING HOW THE BODY WORKS, WE GOT A BIGGER SWING. >> START AND GOING TO RIB CAGE AND RIB CAGE AND FEELING IT IN THE LEFT FOOT AND SHORTER THAN THAT. JUST SMOOTH AND FEELING THE LEFT TOE. PERFECT. YOU FEEL A LOT OF IMPACT,

RIGHT? THAT’LL BE A SIMPLE DRILL. >> YOU KNOW WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS. I HAVE BEEN HITTING BEFORE THIS. HAVING THAT FOCUS IN YOUR HEAD AND ESPECIALLY IN THE WIND IS CRUCIAL AND FEELING LIKE IT GOES THAT WAY FIRST, IT GIVES YOU MORE TIME AND SPICE.

>> YES. >> IF YOU DECREASE TIME AND SPICE, YOU ARE IN A LOT OF TROUBLE. >> WE NEED MORE TIPS. >> SO, SAME GAME. YOU CAN DO POSITION B, THAT’S M MORE. YOU WILL SEE THERE TO THE NAKED IOWA BUT YOUR ARMS DROP THREE INCHES BEFORE YOU START TO ROTATE.

>> YOUR ARM GOES HERE AND YOU ROTATE THROUGH IMPACT. IT IS REALLY GOOD. >> I REALLY LIKE THIS BECAUSE IT GIVES YOU A FOCUS. FOR THE VIEWERS AT HOME, I GUARANTEE YOU GET BOTH BUT GIVE IT SOME TIME. [LAUGHTER] >> OKAY, IS THIS SIMILAR WITH CHIPPING AS WELL OR

COMPLETELY DIFFERENT? >> NO, IT IS SIMILAR. CHIPPING IS A SMALL MOTION, YOUR ARMS AND BODY ARE WORKING TOGETHER. IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE BEST PLACE IN THE WORLD AND I AM LUCKY TO GET THE FRONT. HIS LEFT ARM REALLY NEVER BREAKS DOWN BUT HE’S ARMED

AND HIS BODY IS WORKING TOGETHER. >> I AM TRYING TO GET AS MANY NUGGETS HERE. LONG GAME AND SHORT GAME. >> WE CAN DO IT AGAIN, NO PROBLEM. >> WE ARE GOING TO THE MIDDLE OF THE STANCE, ARMPIT, PRESS AND ROTATE THEN. >> PERFECT.

DO YOU SEE HOW STRAIGHT THAT BALL COMES OUT. >> THE DIRECTION OF THE BALL. IF YOU ARE COACHING CK RIGHT NOW WHAT NUGGET ADVICE WOULD YOU GI HIM? >> AGAIN I WOULD TELL HIM TO WORK ON TEMPO. THAT’S A VERY SIMPLE ANSWER

BUT I WOULD WORK ON TEMPO OF HOW HE WALKS. I AM TRYING TO KEEP HIMSELF EVEN. >> GROUNDED AND BREATHING. >> ANDREW, THANK YOU SO MUCH. >> WE’LL GET YOU ON AGAIN. >> MY PLEASURE. >> YOU GOT TO LOVE THAT, RACHEL GETTING SOME LESSONS

FROM ANDREW GETSON, THE BEST OF THE BEST. YOU LOVE THAT, DOM? >> YES, GREAT STUFF. IF YOU WANT TO GET SOME LESSONS FROM THE BEST OF THE BEST, JUST WATCH THIS VIDEO. >> HEY, GUYS, THIS IS CAM SMITH. >> I AM BRYSON DeCHAMBEAU. >> THIS IS BUBBA WATSON.

WELCOME TO MY LIVE LESSON. >> THIS IS WHEN THE CREATIVITY COMES OUTS. >> THAT’S WHAT I AM FOCUSED ON. >> PAY THE MAN. >> FOR ME, I WANT TO MAKE IT SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE. >> CAM IS ONE THING YOU NEED TO KEEP AN EYE ON. >> CAM SMITH.

HE’S TAKEN COMPLETELY CONTROL HERE. I LIKE TO AIM THE PUTTER AND MAKING SURE IT IS PERFECT. I TAKE MY STANCE AND GIVE IT ONE GOOD LOOK AT THE HOLE AND HIT A GOOD PUCK. THERE WE GO. >> BRYSON DeCHAMBEAU. ELECTRIFIES THE GROUND. >> THERE ARE A LOT OF

MYSTERIES AROUND HITTING IT REALLY FAR. >> TRY TO GET A LITTLE PSYCHOWITH IT. >> THERE IT IS. IT JUST MOVES MORE. I FEEL IT IS RESTRICTED. IF YOU CAN DO THAT, YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY TO A BETTER GOLF >> BE SURE TO CHECK OUT THOSE

LIV LESSONS AS WE HEAD INTO DAY THREE. WE HAVE JOAQUIM NIEMANN LEADING ON THAT LEADER BOARD. JOAQUIM IS PLAYING HIS BEST GAMES RIGHT NOW. WHAT CAN WE LOOK FOR TOMORROW? >> HE’S A WORLD CLASS PLAYER AND HE’S SO INTERESTING. THERE ARE NO GOLFER OUT THERE

WHO LETS THEIR HEAD DROPS SIX INCHES, AND THAT MEANS YOU NEED TO SHORTEN TO FIND THE CENTER OF THE BALL. ONE THING THESE GUYS HAVE IN COMMON WHETHER THEY HAVE BASKETBALL PLAYERS OR GOLFERS OR BUSINESSMAN OR SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE WANT TO BE A PLAY

WHERE THEY KNOW THEY’RE GOING TO BE UNCOMFORTABLE. >> DAVID FLAHERTY, I AM LOOK FORWARD TO IT. THANK YOU GUYS FOR WATCHING US HERE. POST 54, POST ROUND SHOW. WE’LL SEE YOU TOMORROW. SEE YOU THERE! PEACE! ♪ ♪ #
