i’ been getting dirty money Jordan Bing Penny while I’m flipping these birding [Music] ond what is going on DJ Nation ten Kim here bringing you another fantasy golf J podcast this week for the US Open as usual I’m here with everybody’s favorite South African Byron lyu Byron what is up my friend not a lot Kenny just another week that Scotty Che is mopping the floor with Kari cow’s top of his head the top of other people’s heads he’s just wiping the dance floors every weekend with these guys and it’s becoming boring and fun at the same time yeah it is pretty amazing before we move on we are sponsored by Underdog fantasy use promo code Mayo get yourself a $250 deposit uh deposit match uh for your first deposit $250 match make sure you use promo code Mayo yeah I mean what can you do about Scotty uh I mean that last putt was basically something that is basically the Pinnacle of everything that’s been going on with him so far right uh that that that 4 foot that five foot range that used to be a trouble spot for him that’s why he struggled so bad losing all those Strokes putting for about eight months now he’s figured that out and that was really hard to beat uh that was not an easy putt to make right there uh especially with all the pressure on more cow inside of him uh you know him putting downhill with a little slider uh pretty impressive stuff uh by Scotty but you know he did show some vulnerability uh down in the end uh cow just couldn’t you know make take advantage missing the birdie put on 15 bogie 16 um that definitely cost him um you know and then you know Scotty bogie 17 to make it close definitely made it interesting um so I thought Mor C had a chance but again Scotty makes that partt uh he looks very hard to beat uh I don’t he had his b game he had his b game today and he still couldn’t get beat you know I mean KY played well ky’s one of like six players to shoot under par today uh it was tough sling out there at the memorial on this last day they definitely made it tough the the greens are bouncy and firm and you know a good PR a big good precursor of what we’re going to see next week um anybody catch your eye this week other than Scotty and moral I was going to say Colin definitely I do think you know Victor flashed until he told told me [ __ ] rol with his um ejection yesterday afternoon um but it’s looking good you know at least when he was playing good golf when he’s peing he’s got that that optimal upside and I think it’ll be interesting though because of of the course I think we can chat a bit more about who we like once you’ve kind of given us exactly you know your course breakdown Kenny but it’s going to be a weird situation for Victor because there’s so many Baron thin chippy lies yeah everything else seems like I like it but um we can we can chat it’s no one ready P my eye yeah I thought sta played well I thought played extremely well um I actually had both of them in cash which helped me out cash cornerstones were fine uh I think it was Mora was second hin was 15th um almost 22nd and um Hodes was 45th but I had you know straa who’ finished what eighth and um B not finished fifth or fourth one yeah one cash um good week there hit a couple of Underdog uh plays the the one we did on uh the Pod hit another one in the third round so was really really good you know cop four figures top four figures on Underdog this week um I like the way staka played I like the way st’s playing overall uh I mean coming in playing these difficult courses finishing top 10 top 10 top 10 um all the time really really nice bazen ho somebody with a really really good short game I think can make some noise coming up this week at the US Open F now again showing his medal he’s been striping the ball extremely well all year it’s just a matter of his putting and you know it came together a little bit uh for the Finish top 10 sunj m after finishing four over on the first round comes through with another top 10 uh I think it’s fourth in his last five double 18 oh he doubled 18 yeah he double the 7 second hole Yeah I didn’t even see that um but yeah the guy is playing some pretty good golf Sam burns up there again his short game looks incredible Victor Perez another top 15 no Sam no Sam Birds Kenny not in a major I’m going I’m going with him this week I’m going with him at $7,200 I’m going to I’m not gonna bet him what is he giving you what is he giving you one of the best short game players in the last 24 rounds out there uh you know he could putt his ass off it’s just a matter if he can get his irons down um I think he can finish top 25 top 20 and a 7100 he got like one top 20 in majes in his career I understand that but I like the way he’s been playing leading up to this major uh he’s been playing good golf having some good finishes and His short game has been incredible and that’s something I’m looking at very very closely for this week I mean probably one of the most important stats that I’m going for and His short game has been one of the best uh in the last I say month and a half two months out in this field including the Masters and the PJ Championship that he thrived in both times I I I get it I get it but I mean he’s been trending upwards with that short game I have a feeling he’ll finish top 25 um so anything else we to talk about before we move on um just the fact that also like 18 played really weird to me not to be like a CO snob and weird stuff about that but the fact that the world number one the guy that leads the PJ to greeny regulation rates couldn’t hit 18 green with an eight iron in his hand what are we doing you know like if he can’t hit the Green from from an eight Iron Range you know like now you’re just chipping and putting basically to figure out who’s the best golf on 18 that’s not really fair you know like it’s it’s not a true test and I think that’s why Colin really thrived this week is you know just trying to chipping and putting is what he’s got so good at and that’s his he got up and down Kenny from some seriously good spots today I mean his short game is amazing now yeah like the last six months it’s been really really good I mean I love him next week again let’s see if we can beat Scotty also we had Liv uh this week I think uh a big choke job by Adrien [ __ ] huge choke job in the DP World Tour was solder birg who was I think he was four up with four to play and he ended up losing yeah uh in regulation which is pretty [ __ ] horrible I know a lot of people were on them so I feel bad for that I live [ __ ] was in the lead the whole time he blew it to Ortiz um kka had a really good final round I think it was five or six under uh in the final round um uh Bryson again going in I think he finished top 12 he played I think it was like two under two or three under every day um coming into another us another major championship where it doesn’t look like it should suit his game but we shall see all right so before we move on to a little story time uh let’s go we’re going to start something back up again and we we stopped doing here once we did the host change with Byron uh we’re going to go ahead and do our comment section on the YouTube thing where you go ahead you pick your winner uh and your draft King and your um DraftKings handle uh your DraftKings name pick the winner the first person who picks the correct winner in the

watch our video go to the comment section pick your winner and pick put your draft key handle down and I will go ahead at pick a winner each week to go against us in the three man all right so let’s do a little H Story Time with Kenny Classic this was I you know my life after I’ve basically turned 40 has been boring so I haven’t really been able to have very many new story times except for like my house getting shut up uh you know it’s not really like the funnest story time there is like or me like drilling somebody with a car right those have been like the ones that have happened recently and they haven’t really been fun so uh this week we’ll go back to I consider this a fun one she might not have considered this fun but I considered this one so this is the old proposal story and I’m I’m I’m telling this story because I actually met Santana Moss last week former [ __ ] um one of my favorite players and the story sort of revolves around him and I actually told him the story and he thought I was a [ __ ] lunatic of course uh but so so uh I was dating this girl we were dating for a few years uh down in Rono Franklin County girl um you know Sorority Girl so we were going to weddings all the time like all our sorority sisters were getting married in the mid 20s so after like you know a year and a half almost two years she she she’s always asking when are we getting married when are we getting married so finally like know I get the ring from her mother I ask her mother’s permission um I get you know I get her great On’s wedding ring that’s you know that’s the one she talked about that she that’s the one she like you know this girl I you know sneaky ass [ __ ] real sneaky so I had to like keep the ring on me at all times I couldn’t like leave it because we’re live we were living together at the time um and I can’t just like leave it somewhere she’ll find that [ __ ] and be like oh my God so I wanted the surprise I had it all planned out nice little restaurant you know go out do our thing whatever um so what ended up happening is I was watching a Redskins Cowboys game I think it was a Monday night game um I was about 12 to 16 beers deep drink a lot of beer back then it was funny because I actually started uh at the bar we worked at and we were losing and uh there were so many Cowboys fans there I was like I figured I was going to fight somebody and get fir uh so I went back home girlfriend was home um so I’m watching the the second half and home girlfriend I mean uh Brunell he throws a pick right I’m I’m [ __ ] pissed off like hammered and just pissed and like out the corner of my ear I hear her say so when are we getting married and I basically lose like all Consciousness like I basically lose my mind for like a split second I grab the ring out of my pocket and I throw it at her face I’m like there’s your stupid ring [ __ ] shut the [ __ ] up so I can watch the goddamn game so I I continue to watching the game I had no problem with what I just did because I was so like engrossed in this Cowboys Redskins game what ended up happening was Brunell threw two bombs to Santana Moss like 70 yard bombs in the last like three minutes to win the game um and I was super hyped like right after the second bomb we won I drove back to the bar I had like a Redskins flag and all the Cowboys fans are still there and just ran around with my Redskins flagged like all around the bar and then just got back in my car and then when I got back in my car I was like did I do what I think I did about 30 minutes ago and I’m like holy [ __ ] I really did that and so you know when I threw the ring at her she just you know grabbed the ring took her back into the room and I didn’t see her again so I get back home uh I’m like holy [ __ ] [ __ ] like I go to her and like I’m like oh my God you know I don’t know what I was thinking and she’s like no it’s okay you we’re engaged I’m so she was H she was just happy she got the [ __ ] ring right so we we ended up being engaged for six months after that I couldn’t pull the trigger so what I did is like I just stopped coming home for like six weeks I just didn’t come home that’s how he broke up I was horrible person back then I was in my mid 20s I just didn’t know how to do it so I thought the easiest way to break up the marriage was just to not talk to leave your entire life and just not come home weeks yeah just be gone check out K yeah that’s what I yeah so I know so that was my I know Byron has a story I want to hear a little little story time from Byron a little story time so I I have some fun stories from college right because I came up on a college scholarship here for golf went to a little university called William pen un before you start is this the Bobby Max story no no I thought you said you had some stories about Bobby ma Am I Wrong Buster my my golf coach oh okay okay my old because I some issues with the people I had some issues with the people across the pond about Bobby Mack this weekend calling me a wanker and [ __ ] like that sorry people across the pound but [ __ ] Bobby Mac I hate you too go ahead you know what it’s a you know it’s a pres Ryder Cup’s coming up in the near half I gotta hate you that’s just the way it works and you guys beat us last time so right okay all right so we go starting in in smalltown Oskaloosa Iowa I come over 2011 I’m this this young infused golfer and and then I find out that my coach you know we we emailing you hardly ever you know back then we weren’t really Skyping hardcore and and then you come over here and you realize Busta is a 75y old W Vette who as we started going through our years he started pissing the seat on the way to like the course to the tournaments and then whoever was lost out of all of us would have to drive home because he’d always make one of us drive home after a long weekend but the the seat was full of piss and we’d always have to drive home in this wa wa wait he literally would piss on the seat yeah because he’s he’s he’s like taking like heart attack medicine the guys had like three quadruple bypasses he he once finished a round of he can’t wear like a diaper depends I mean come on [ __ ] it’s got too much like we it’s we the respect for this man you know it’s just it’s too overwhelming more more that I get it okay okay one of the moments that we had with this guy one of my best friends Terren shows up at in my sophomore year and he’s also from Zambia and we’ve all learned the tricks of Buster and we hear Buster’s window start rolling down all of us that are awake teren is sleeping the rest of us that are awake we hit the deck because we know when this window starts winding down and you hear Buster starts snorting he’s trying to Gob one out the window and it’s about a 50/50 success rate because sometimes he gets it out sometimes he doesn’t man so we hit the deck all of us hit the deck Terrence hears us hit the deck he gets up and Buster gobs one and at 70 m per hour he just gets roasted with a gobber from Buster he just gets up and just gets slapped in the face like as it comes in and that’s how he learned his lesson to always stay on the floor when Buster rolls window down but yeah I’ve got some Buster stories for you guys like tight ass windbreaker jacket cell phones getting stuck in his pocket bandages the next morning with like 17 stitches in his head just say this quote morning you know it’s it’s wild I’ve got some Buster stories we’re going to keep I’ll roll a few like quick hitters out as we going along with the series here but Buster wette Legend Absolut you still the coach no no no he was my coach for two years but he’s still alive which is okay about as as more remarkable than anything else too so lots of lots of good stuff there he was he actually Buster was two months older than his father-in-law is two months older than or was two months it’s like this is Buster you know so yeah we’ll I’ll leave it at that there’s a lot to be desired about bust I’ll I’ll tell more stories in the future yeah good for his mom right you’re going for the younger Buck there you go right so yes before before we move

www.ncpgambling.org .org all right so we’re back for our Underdog fantasy segment another winner last week and had a huge winner in round three with like a 7.4 multiplier really really nice uh good week uh you know went ahead hit uh you know made over a grand so it was solid on the underdog streets and so for this week if I could bring it up there it is my Underdog play so Scotty Sheffer I don’t care how hard the course is going to play he just need to shoot one under I’m going to take that because Scotty’s the best I’m going lower than 69.5 Strokes for round one it’s Scot it you know I just feel like I don’t care how hard the court is going to play I think he’ll somehow be able to grind through a minus one and be you know he’ll be in a top five top 10 after round one because it’s Scotty uh this just who he is now Patrick Hanley been playing like straight [ __ ] I’m GNA go ahead and put him at higher than three and a half bokies for round one all right he’s just been playing like ass ever since he’s gotten on that uh policy board uh the committee he’s just game has just not been there it’s been sucking ass so not gonna play him uh and not and I’m gonna go ahead and do the higher than 3.5 Bogies and then John ROM um after you know he withdrew from Liv Houston he has some type of cut in between his toes I don’t think it’s going to stop him from playing but it’s going to B him I’m sure and it’s not like we’ve seen a good John ROM you know throughout this major season um I think he just I think mentally he’s just not there the move to live probably [ __ ] him more uh in the mind of anybody else because he doesn’t like being not liked right uh and you know people were talking [ __ ] to him and the Masters and [ __ ] like that he wasn’t used to that um and so I think you know he’s got to get used to it now if he didn’t had the injury maybe I would think about him just because he would be so low owned I think being in that d as a DFS option um but because of the injury because of with with withdrawal I’m going to go higher than 70.5 Strokes for him so he has to shoot one over or worse uh this pays out 6.3 times so again it’s going to be Scotty Sheffer lower than 69.5 Strokes Patrick Canley higher than 3.5 Bogies are worse John ROM higher than 70.5 Strokes pays out 6.3 bman what are you doing this week I love it Jenny I like where you’re going I like I like finding specific things about specific guys because what Underdog does is they kind of just roll these odds out there the same for everyone pretty much you know based off their baselines but they’re not taking into account the kind of stuff that we did when ludig we we thought his knee was going to be an issue I went and that turned out to be not a problem at all so that that was the only thing only leg I lost last year last week as well so this week I’m going cam Smith under three and a half Bogies lower than three and a half Bogies this guy I’ve always said about cam Smith the perfect course for him is just a a jungle like there’s just trees and and crap everywhere he would shoot underp somehow like he can scramble you can just get up and down so cam Smith getting up and down in these GS give it toy three and a half or less Bogies SE strier canny we’ve been speaking about how good this guy’s playing some good golf lower than 72 Strokes right like shoot me shoot me level P or better or whatever and we we we cooking with gas there and then Tiger Woods over 74 Strokes I think higher sorry higher than 74 Strokes there he’s his thing I think we’re going to need so much short game around here I think that’s the part of his game that he’s really lost the most I think we’re going to see some tough tough stuff from him he hasn’t been playing good goal so I’m going to I’m going to take a gamble on him being higher than 74 to try and get that that correlation the anti-correlation with sep there so um it currently tells me I’ve got six picks in my slip which I’m only seeing three so I don’t know exactly what the what the payout is there but those are my guys Tiger Woods higher than 74 Strokes cam Smith lower than three and a half Bogies and SE ster 72 lower P Strokes you should get that should be around 6.3 as well yeah because you have a lower than lower than score and a higher score so that should add to the multiplier plus one that’s not correlated with the others so you it should be around 6.3 that’s usually the way it is so I would suspect that that’s what that is so we both got pretty good Underdog ones over six times let’s see if we can keep it rocking uh this week all right so next of course our betting segment uh last week the memorial uh the first time I did not hit an eway or a winner uh in the last 12 stroke play events so little bitter uh you know I had Moro but win only uh I had Victor Perez who was you know fifth going in in the 16 finished bogey bogey to drop the 12th so that sort of hurt well we’re going to go ahead and try for a new one this we by why don’t you go ahead and start with the betting section all right so as always I’m just going to go ahead right now and tell you I dropped the the Scotty Sheffer top 10 earlier on Twitter um I did that that video of the cheat the the hack the genius Byron being a genius kind of thing that Mike put on there for us on the YouTube shorts Scotty Sheffer was minus 190 for a top 10 since is now won this thing they’ve readjusted as minus 220 for a top 10 still I would go to that all day long Scotty Sheffer inside the top 10 in majes in any tournament at that kind of odds go make sure that you put all your money on that to return whatever you’ve bet in the outright Market that you can cover your outright tail with the Scotty Sheffer top 10 and then if he doesn’t win hopefully your guy comes through for you but Scotty sheev is going to be my guy for me there what I’ve also been looking at is Kari cow keny we’ve been speaking about how well this guy’s been playing I’m going to be betting Carin Mari cow to finish inside the top five this year I think he’s just a top five beast when it comes to these majors and we we’ve seen some really good form and we’ve spoken about how crispy and how short game dependent this venue is going to be this is where we’re going to see Kara really shine because we’ve spoken about Kari ca’s short game in Majors being great now this year his short game’s got even better so we’ve got a colara culmination of event here that’s going to really result in another good performance from him and that’s plus 350 for a top five for Colin Mari cow ties p in full at B 365 and unfortunately doing the show early for you guys you’re going to have to take a peek at my show on Tuesday nights on mayor media Network by the way and um I’ll have all my bets that are in my breaking 100 article for you guys there because the markets aren all out right now you know the top 20 top 40 markets aren quite there on bet 365 for me it sounds good I my outright card is basically done I went ahead and bet everything while the memorial was going I might be getting some worse numbers uh than than I can there’s only one guy I’m really worried about in this card where I think I might have should have waited until the reset tomorrow but you know we’re gonna go with it we’re gonna go morawa 16 to one with eight places uh this week I mean again the guy’s playing really really good golf he’s won two majors you know he can win these Majors uh this again a short game really really good the length doesn’t seem like it’s crazy I mean I know Memorial was super long he did fine uh with his accuracy off the te and the roll out I expect him to actually maybe having a little bit of an advantage because he could probably use driver more than other guys uh because he’s so accurate with it I would not be surprised is if his you know if he’s in contention I would expect him to be inside the top 40 uh in driving distance because that means he’s you know using the driver more off the te hitting more Fairways and that’s why he and contention and being able to hit lower irons because you know again you’re going to see a lot of long irons on this course so I do like Mor how a 16 to1 eight places I made this havin bet I think uh at the PGA Championship uh it was 20 to1 with five places I don’t feel as good about that uh as of now after what I saw this past week at the memorial uh but you know if the guy can if his if his ball striking can be as good as it can be you know and he doesn’t have to go around the green that much if he’s leading the field in greens and regulation he has a chance um Kea 25 to1 five places again shooting 56 under today on Sunday at Liv Houston uh here’s the thing about kka if you bet kka $50 at 20 to one for every major for five years if he wins one you win your money back I mean so like so so so I like I don’t want I would just bet kka at every [ __ ] major right if he wins TW if you bet $50 on kka at 20 to one and he wins two majors you doubled your money right yeah so so just just just bet kka at every major I don’t give a [ __ ] dud the best thing about this major is that the chances of the score being single physic is pretty good compared to you know the PGA Championship wasn’t a kka situation you know likeus you know he he’s creative around around the greens he can chip and he can do he can do different types of stuff around the greens he’s competent around that um so I do like ke good I only got five places for him but I did get a 25 to one number which I do like a lot uh for capka um then I’m going Dei uh again showing is he’s healthy you could tell top 10 this week uh his short game excellent his approach was excellent even he even drove the ball pretty decently being in the top 20 in driving accuracy this P ad Memorial top 30 in Strokes gain off the te now you know that’s going to be his weakness again he doesn’t really have to hit his driver every time if he doesn’t want to and you know the fairways aren’t like super narrow now there’s no rough that’s the thing so if you miss the fairways you’re going to go into this we’ll talk about this during the course preview but this like weird native area with wire grass and stuff like that but again you know around the greens a Dei one of the best uh so give me AI 4 to one this is the one one number that I wasn’t sure about uh he did finish top 10 this week so I I I I went ahead and made made this bet at 40 to1 with eight places but it could go up we’ll see I don’t know how popular herck is going to be it could be 50 or 66 by tomorrow but just in case I went ahead and took the 40 um like you I really like cam Smith a lot uh this week I think a US Open usually probably not his best thing but the way this course sets up uh I feel like you know with his short game uh prow uh and his exceptional putting uh you know if he can just beat decent ball striking average ball striking he could be in contention again and I do I get 40 to1 with eight places for cam Smith last guy Seth stren H to one eight places which just playing golf well on every course that he’s playing in difficult courses to match uh so the way his form is give me a little bit of sep 100 to one uh that’s probably going to be my card for the week all right I love hii you know the numbers seems weird his stuff is going up and down all sorts all over the place but I’ve got a 46 to1 on here as well and I think there’s 50s out there now that you can still grab I don’t know what happens tomorrow I don’t know what that odds reset does but if you are familiar with with Sam Burns’s putting at the valpar he is gaining like 1.7 Strokes putting at the Val spawn and I looked up who else has gained more Strokes than any other Strokes gain category and monama is the only other person who has averaged a better Strokes gain on Approach at the US Open than S at the valpar so if you think about how well Sam Burns puts at the valpar add point one more Strokes onto that and think about how well Hadi Matsuyama hits his irons at the US Open oh and guess what Hadi Matsuyama is doing this year he’s leading the pj2 and strokes G around the green basically like we’re going to see Iron play that he does so well in these Uso opens and then we’re going to have this surr the green he when he misses green that’s a it’s a birdie opportunity more so than when he’s on the green because he sucks at butting and he’s so good at chipping not it’s a bit of overreaction there but hii this golf course can you at 46 at 50 at whatever number you have it suits him perfectly yeah I’m I’m a big fan of love this week again like you said around the green play his long iron play is excellent uh Power four play excellent bogy avoidance top five I mean give me some Dei he’s already a major winner um there are correlations this course and austa yeah I mean yeah he’s he’s already he’s not one of my cash game cornerstones for the week but he’s in my cash lineup I could tell you that right now all right so let’s actually get to the draft ke let’s get to these tiers let’s go ahead to this 10K range we got keco all the way to Sheffer we’re playing Sheffer am I right yes I think you have I mean I I don’t I don’t see any reason to fade him at all uh no reason to fade Sheffer he’ll be 40 he’ll be one of my he’ll be my highest own it’ll be 50% owned um maybe maybe 45 somewhere around there uh because it just makes too much sense he’s I’m worried about all the bets I’m gonna lose because sheffer’s gonna win yeah so you might as well lock him into DFS yes if you wanted to bet Sheffer at three to one I would not tell you no I would not tell you you know that would probably be one of your only bets which is you know not very fun but I can’t say no to that right um yeah so anybody else catch your eye uh in this in this 10K and ight Kenny before we do that I want to mention that shiffler was bet by 30% of the handle this week at 3 to1 30% of what was B on outrights this week with the memorial 30% of it was on Scotty sheff at 3 to one so like as ex gamblers and us as Prof profal experts that say no you have to have a seven extra turn [ __ ] the public just B him at 3 to one and they rock and roll and and M father-in-law is making money betting Scotty Che outrights right now so tough scenes for your boys over here on the X world but um I also wanted to a few more outra I already dive in I had Tom Kim at 55 to1 too so I think him in Maes he’s he’s one of these guys he’s going to win one soon so let’s dive into this top Ranger then Scotty shefley got a bit and I think oh sorry you have to play him I’ll be putting him in 100% of my lineups Kya I’m going to play 150 is going to be in every single one um what I’ve been trying to do now is not play Scotty Sheffer in smaller contests you know the like higher entry numbers like less than a thousand people it’s not even working anymore because Adam hadwin was the out you know Adam hadwin helped Scotty Sheffer lineups get through this week even in the smaller contest he was still optimal so now in a big 100 if you’re going into the mill maker you’re likely going to have to have Scotty shefley in your lineup hey you know what before I move on I told toally forgot about the course screw the course can you let’s just BL I just want to go I just want to go into it right I totally forgot about the cours let me go over the cours for you guys real quick before we go on it’s funny because I I just ate an edible and I I wasn’t even Stone I just forgot um so let’s go ahead so Piner Piner number two hosting the US Open for the fourth time in the last 25 years uh pain Stewart won in 1999 one of the most memorable us opens there was that fist pump that he did probably screwing Phil melson from the career Grand Slam because that was probably Phil’s best chance after he made that P Ser made that 18 fo the for par on 18 to win by one Michael Campbell won in 2005 he won an even par P Stewart won in minus one ker won a minus nine but he won by eight Strokes uh so not many people shooting under Pawn at this course uh in those three events you know Pioneers plays tough coren khaw did a renovation prior to the 2014 edition removing trees adding green um green runoff areas which made these above average size greens play much smaller um something different we will see this year is the addition of more wire grass in the native area uh Piner you know has normal bunkers but they also have these waste areas that are covered with sand and have wire grass growing in them now in the old in 2014 it was pretty spread out right there’s going to be more this year it grew they grew in more um I wouldn’t say it’s covering the entire Sandy area but you know when you if you hit it into that area it’s 50/50 you probably have worse than a 50-50 chance of getting uh uh a better than a 50-50 chance of having a bad line uh in there I think it was probably you had much better chance of having a good Li last time in 2014 because it was a little bit more sparse uh this wi grass but it has filled it a little bit more it’s not crazy but it’s definitely filled in a little bit more um now this is of course not your typical US Open setup is they’re very little rough uh you know you have to hit uh a very Wayward shot just to find like the knee high stuff um if you just missed the fairell you’re either going to be like in a bunker or in that Sandy wire Grassfield native area uh now because of the lack of rough the popular bomman GS technique we’ve seen in recent US Open won’t really work here unless you hit a ton of Fairways longer gol golfers would Club down a fair amount which giv shorter golfers more of a chance than at a normal US Open I think the winning score will be I think still winning score will still be around High single digits because of the equipment changes since 2014 and how good these golfers are compared to what they were back then I I I would expect we see maybe two or three guys above minus four minus5 um you know trying to compete for the win and then everyone else will be like you know minus one or or even par or way below um I do think overpar will still be top 15 I think would probably still happen um now getting the major the meet of the course Pioneers is a 7600 yard par 70 with two par fivs and both those par fivs are over 580 yards the par three is a long s of the par fours with most being over 450 yards you got eight par fours over 450 you got two under 400 um which you know possibly could be drivable depending on where the t- boox is now off the te golfers see wide undulating Fairways with no rough unless you miss in one of the few areas with knee high grass these areas are far and few between but if you do land them you’re you’re [ __ ] um you know you could like lose balls in these but these are like not areas where golfers normally hit balls in uh now if they hit some crazy [ __ ] it could happen it could happen uh now um you know if you miss a fairway you’re either going to be in a fairway bunker and S Wire Grass filled waste area you’d much rather be in a bunker uh the fairways roll firm so you will see some golfers play less than driver on a bunch of holes and shorter more accurate hitters are still live this week on approaches golfers will see above average size greens but the 6,800 foot average is deceiving the green are shaped like an upside down bowl or like a turtle shell which makes so only like 2500 square feet of each green can carry a pin location basically that means you know with these crowned edges you know really shortens these grad probably by 40% you know what I’m saying because if you miss in certain areas of that it’s just going to roll off into a runoff area and you’re gonna have a tight lie for your for your chip Bop or your putt uh like we saw KRA do um you know um chipping a can be tricky creativity around the greens will be useful I one in 2014 by getting a by hitting a ton of putter off the greens but bumping runs and high fighted flop shots they’re all on the table uh the more Arsenal a golfer has in his short game the better uh these beras Bermuda grass greens they’re going to be firm they’re going to be fast s meter rating of 12 and a half to 13 and a half what are you looking for in golfers this week my friend Denny when it comes to Majors I want major track record what I’m using to build my model is Strokes gained in Majors if you don’t have enough Strokes gaining majes you’re not going to find yourself ranking while in my model because I need you to have played well like we saw what happened with sahit was third place going into the PJ Championship Sunday that was the first time he really found himself in contention [ __ ] his pants you know like tough scenes for SE made made Birdie on one made Birdie on 18 that was it you know Xander made Seven birdies that day tough times for him so looking for that kind of stuff course history is is going to be hard because obviously we haven’t played um a lot of people would not have played this golf course either and I think around the greens you got to have your stuff dialed in you got to be able to scramble you got to be able like score well in tough conditions and keep your pip on your shoulders so it’s a very simple situation for me this week I’m not going to think it too much and just kind of really really go into it but one thing I do want to mention Kenny is I’ve been really leaning into guys that have finished first or second in a major championship prior because like M the the US Open is the least predictive of that because the Open Championship and the Masters are two very very predictive hardly anyone ever really wins that tournament unless they finish second or first in a major this one roughly like it’s a fifth or sixth place finish that has the same percentage as the second place finish for the open and the Masters so you really have a bit more guys that if you finish inside the top five in a major then I can still play you this week because I think that’s or at least bet you you know like to win the tournament kind of thing but I’ll still be looking for top five finishes in Majors for sure yeah I mean that all makes sense I mean major history is always important um I you longer irons of course short game 175 to 200 200 plus short game yeah irons typical typical stuff that you see on these art courses now let’s go back to the top of this board we already said we’re going to play Sheffer um now when it comes to Rory and Xander you know both of them actually have the most wins on Donald Ross courses this is a Donald Ross design Corin K shop did the renovation Xander has two wins on um Donna Ross course Rory has two wins on Donald Ross courses I’m gonna go zaner just to save a little bit of money um so I will play a bit of zaner sofle um at 115 you know top 15 and seven straight us opens uh the only only one of the golfers finished top 15 his first seven us opens without a win um iander yeah Xander oh yeah top it’s a Justin Ray stat uh so his first seven us opens he finished top 15 first person to do that uh since I think Bobby Jo I I don’t know uh Jack Nicholas did it um somebody else great did it and it was him all right and you know he’s hot uh he’s very he didn’t really have his great game this week still finished top 10 um the guy he’s got this confidence up I’ll play Xander over Rory uh this week because again Rory’s main strength probably muted a little bit because I don’t see him hitting a [ __ ] ton of drivers now if he does and he hits Fairways all time look out right but I don’t know if that’s going to be the correct game plan uh for this week and then of course if you go down lower um kepka is my first cash G Cornerstone uh I like yeah what’s up you said kipka or Victor kka ke kka it’s my first is my first cash game Cornerstone at $10,000 again major track record is there I think his floor is pretty high I don’t see him finishing outs at the top 30 right he’s not going to miss the cut at a major uh this guy and we’re crossing our fingers but you know the guy is just a major fiend yeah and again these type of Majors with the lower with the higher scoring um I think sort of suit him better like you said U than what we saw at the PG Championship I do like Bryson too the thing is I I think I’m gonna play a lot of these these 10K guys I don’t really I don’t really have a lot of the 9k guys and there aren’t that many um so I think I I’m gonna start a couple of lineups with like Xander capka uh Bryson capka and the reason Bryson he might not fit at this course right but we didn’t we didn’t think he’d fit at the Masters right um he’s doing his thing with his he’s testing out some ball right now that doesn’t carry mud like he can hit it and it won’t mud won’t stick to the ball yeah yeah yeah he’s like testing like these these new golf balls that like that he use like in wet conditions that will not carry M on the ball the guy the thing is if he overthinks this I think it could be a problem but I don’t think that’s what he’s going to do I don’t think he’s gonna be dumb I don’t think he’s gonna go pound his driver out there hit his threewood hit his irons get him rolling out there his short game his putting is fine you know and the guy’s been a major Champion he’s been doing exceptionally well in majors and he had another a top 12 finish this past weekend live I was trying to go between Kea and Bryson in cash I think kka is a safer higher floor um I think Kea I think Bryson could definitely crash and burn um at this course but I’m willing to use him here I’m going to be peppering a lot of these 10K guys and basically skipping a lot of the 9k guys except for my one cash game Cornerstone that’s cool with me Kenny because the well the thing is did you say you’re not going to be playing John Ram right after you faded the okay cool because I think you know playing Scotty and then just leave leaving those next three guys for me alone is probably what I’m going to be doing because I said I’m going to lock Scotty in and I’m going to do that I don’t care what his ownership is I think at this point it’s almost like playing the Chiefs in the Super Bowl it’s like it’s just it’s it’s just inevitable but Xander was looking and I was getting a lot of [ __ ] online because I want to cash out my Xander 40 to1 um top 10 in every major this year because I was looking Scotty after you won the Masters never finished you missed the cut at Southern Hills um John Ram after winning the Masters also Mr cut the following like it’s all of these guys that after they win their first major they kind of struggle a bit Colin won his first major and then I think when he he won the Open Championship the only reason he kind of popped back up is because the Masters was a little later you know like eight months later so I’m concerned about a defending major champ at the next major for the situation so I’m likely going to leave Xander alone I think he’s going to be it’s going to allow me to to take on a bit more chalk down south as well because if he struggles then I’m I’m probably only playing against what 75% of the field what does Xander come in at 115 I think 25 30% maybe this week because he’s just been dominant so if he’s that high I might have to not plan okay let’s go 20 25% maybe 30 is is a touch too high but maybe you know the high Stak situations they go to him but I think he’s probably going to be 20 plus let’s say that and I’ll be out on that then because no one’s going to want to play John ROM Rory like why would play Rory when you can play Xander instead for $600 cheaper you know like and then you’ve got a broken John Ram who’s got web toe cracks and stuff so I mean Roy could be the pivot play right Roy could be the pivot play I don’t think I’m gonna play abely but dag Roy could be the real pivot play in this 10K range because you know it’s Rory he can go out there and dominate of course if he really wanted to see if he does it like I said I think it was last last week we were talking I don’t think he’s won an event in his career maybe one where it’s been under minus 12 so that’s you know something against Roy uh and that’s probably why I’m not going to use him but I would put it against him it’s not like he’s playing poorly he did play poorly on Sunday at the memorial but it could have just been rubbing off because of lowry who shot 85 uh today uh so I don’t know how well you can play when you see like one of your best mates out there just [ __ ] [ __ ] the [ __ ] bed uh out there and finishing almost dfl after being in like the top 15 after round three so uh yeah um all right so did you have a bet on Shane Larry at all Kenny I did not I don’t I did not I did not you just preaching like Shane Larry like lost your half a mortgage n that guy’s just you know again another guy I just don’t like um all right so n9k range the only guy I’m playing is more cow he’s my second cash game for uh pretty easy to at that price he’s going to be popular um I don’t see any if you want to fade him because ownership sure whatever but I don’t care about his ownership I will play in cash he’s probably gonna be like 50% um so I’m gonna go ahead and play him I I thought hin just didn’t he he crossed out for me uh after what I saw this week oldberg maybe but then trying to do four with that brace I don’t understand you know talking about I got a lot of [ __ ] for this where he somebody asked him if he tore his because that was the rumor that that was going around and he said uh I don’t want to tell you that uh it’s between me and my doctor and I I get why people were were sort of pissed at me because I I don’t understand why he won’t tell us these things and we do gamble on this on weekend week out basis but people were like it’s just privacy stuff like that so okay fine whatever and let’s not even talk about that I just don’t think I’m going to trust him uh you know if if that’s really what’s happening with him if he’s playing for days this week and four days next week I mean that’s a lot of walking on that knee with the brace uh so I’m not going to go with him at all um Andy but who do you like in this 9k range so Kenny the thing with and just I know you didn’t want to chat about it but it’s kind of interesting because in NL and MLB NHL all that stuff they have the injury reporting this I was talking about this on another show somewhere where there’s no reason to not give the information to us because you’re playing against the golf course it’s not like the course is going to know you’ve got a bad right knee and Target that you know you’re not going to be your right tackle left tackle and know that the inju is there that the other person can can Zone in on like it’s you versus the course you know Scotty’s not goingon to kick you in the knee because you’ve got a bum knee you know like well here’s the thing also you know PGA Tour is now sponsored by betting companies I know right like how do you how do you how do you sponsored by betting companies and you don’t give out the correct information for betters yeah no someone’s going to WD after we lock and it’s going to be 10% of the cont out of out of luck there and it’s going to be a fun time but hey it is what it is but going back to Victor and around the green play Kenny the reason I was on him at PGA Championship even before he went back to the coach the combination of both of them very nice but Victor’s historically always gain Strokes around the Green in Maes anyway him and Colin both guys that have been shitty around the greens in like normal tournaments it’s just something about I think the the course strategy and course management allowing you to have easier up and downs on tough ER courses is what Victor havin thrives on his course management skills are incredibly good and I think that’s what helps him on these tough venues so maybe if the chipping and putting has fixed itself and it’s a major again I’m in at 90 what is he $9,800 I’m I’m all in on that I mean this guy’s track record in Majors is incredible yeah if if his ownership is gonna be low because of what happened this week I I would probably change my mind that would mean I probably would have to get rid of Xander um so if it comes down to it it would probably be a Xander take that Ander havlin pick between me just to see what happens and you know if you’re a part of gups Corner uh we’ll do our final E9 podcast Wednesday night for my final thoughts uh we do that for every major and every single event with me and gup so if you want to check that out check it out I love my final uh you know answers at that point in time anybody else in this 9k range and and Colin yeah Colin yeah now this AK range I like I like the C Smith is one of my favorite I’m going to use him as one of my it’s my third cash game Cornerstone um again of course where it’s not traditional bombing gouge type US Open where finesse and a little bit of creativity around the greens would be very very um important you know and just the way he plays on difficult courses uh he’s always done well on hard courses I think when it comes to uh my ranking I think he’s fifth in the field um in difficult courses throughout uh I guess the last year couple of years also when you look at him you know you would think because of our wild he drives that he tends to get a lot of Bogies he’s 15th in this field um in bogy avoidance and even even not including Liv scores just majors and the last time he was in um in uh all majors basically this is all majors he’s 15th so I’m looking at the last 24 rounds that’s all ma are hard Kenny that’s when you make the most focuses in Maj all maor for him and he’s 15th in this field and you want to know something even crazier cam Smith is the top 25 Strokes gained around the green this year the best performances there were three people to have themselves on that list twice this year Hadi Mama Strokes gaining around the green Manu Lee and cam Smith cam Smith has got eight rounds of golf that with shotlink the and he’s got his on the around the greens Spike potential twice two of eight rounds have gained him over three Strokes around the green can he in these major so Jesus you got to play this guy at this golf course you got to and Australian sand belt stuff yeah where’s where’s C Smith from boy you know he’s Australian so got to play the sheeter down KNE on the on the sand belt stuff so um I like the Australian action it’s pretty s I’m watching Lost rewatching lost right now uh lots of Australian ACC I suck at accents I wish I could I wish I could do that I just found them funny have a body mine who’s like the best at him uh there always great at parties uh so so I always want to learn I’m horrible at him well yeah hate Australian accents I always get called freaking Australian you know so I’m trying to educate the people that’s how you you know the guys that sound like idiots like cam you know got like a nasal thing you know are you um then the South Africans we got this nice deep handsome accent that’s got a really solid tone to it well every time I hear you all I can think about is Trev Im so now I know what a South African accent is so thank now other guys in this AK range I’m playing everybody like everybody in this AK range that’s gular I like Fleetwood uh a [ __ ] ton this week Fleetwood is uh one of my favorites uh short game solid avoids Bogies plays well in difficult conditions the last three of the last four major winners first time winners I don’t think I can bet them but I’m going to roster the [ __ ] out of them uh I do like Tommy um I love um Fitzpatrick showed a little summer this week show showed a little life showing a little life uh this week and you know his short game is pretty decent he’s a US Open champion in the past I don’t expect him to be popular another guy who I think I would like to play down here F now again Len better golf uh you know his Tia green game has been excellent uh over the last six months um one of the best top five top 10 on tour uh give me a little pH out uh I love Hideki Hideki is not one of my cash game cornerstones but he’s in my cash lineup we already talked about how much we love him uh this week it’s not hard I mean this AK section is staffed and that’s why I think I can roster like four guys in a 10K range canl I mean moreal is only going to be 20% owned by me in in gpps because that’s how I limit myself when I with my cash game plates because I don’t want to have like 80% of my money like on one dude you know know what I’m saying I did that once I think I did with Rory a couple weeks ago paid off uh I think Rory finished like top five top 10 at Canada uh I think was the back door top 10 and paid off because I had him in cash and I had him like 40% in gpps but you know it’s rare uh the only person I think I would change that for probably kka probably go try and go 30% kka this week maybe a little bit more uh than I normally would for my cash game cornerstones but um yeah I love decky this week who do you like in this r i mean this ranges I love it AK range canny they just took everyone that can scramble and they just tossed him in the AK range yeah you go just like oh you got good short game 8K you got a short game 8K like I mean look at this range it’s ridiculous so this is going to I’m just start kind of going through the motions with you right now and realizing Scotty shift is going to be very popular because this 8K range is going to help a lot of people find some some value right like Scotty 28k guys leaves you with 6766 you know you don’t even get the dreaded 6 Tri 6 you go that you got that nice little seven in there too so you find a nice salary saver down in the fives and and off you go to the races in that 7K range that we’re going to speak about next all right so let’s just go into the 7K range I mean up top I I thought about Haden maybe a little bit but I’m a little bit worried about how hard this course is going to play and like mentally if Haden can get through but he’s somebody I’m thinking about um Jason day is somebody I want to look at who can hit the ball extremely high right the Apex height is going to be extremely important I this is just a gut feeling play for me it doesn’t really his numbers don’t really seem anything he hasn’t really been playing the best golf out there it’s just a gut feeling about Jason day uh this week I think he does well I think he makes the cut I think he finish top 25 I don’t know I just got a weird feeling uh about about day um again I’m not the biggest fan of the 7K I like the 6ks a lot too okay so yeah so I mean we we we’re going through it and like the 7K I’m not the biggest fan I’ll play a little bit of Jason day I’ll play some Tom Kim um I like uh Benny an the Koreans down here playing all except minwoo I’m not playing minwoo I just he’s not he’s just not like you said there’s not enough par fives right for this course for midw to play I’m just not the biggest fan of him know it looks like you are a fan are you playing midw this week yes I just told you that he’s one of the two the three people that has had these SP he what the PJ Championship he chipped in three three times in one day Kenny I’m just not a big I’m just not a big mid rule guy man you get that at $7,300 you get one of the best short game Specialists the magic luck pulled out of my ass situation stuff yeah that’s like one of the worst worst in the field of bogey WIS like that’s what I’m worried about yeah because he’s always chipping his chips in gu making bogey you know like it is what it is but I’ll be playing him I get I get what you mean you know um so you want to do a Min woo versus a s Burns bet yes yes please sign me the hell up for that all right you’re going to go you’re going to take men what are we betting here what are we betting here you throw it out there I’m not I’m not uh I mean like we got to do something I mean so you’re a Jets fan sure all right uh we’ll have to we okay we’ll have to wear Jets hat I’ll have to wear a Jets hat uh in a future pod to be named you’ll have to wear a Commander’s hat at a super at a time to be named uh sometime I think they’re play actually in the preseason so that would be maybe that’s a good time to do it then we’ll figure it out we’ll we’ll do it then and not nearly severe enough either you know we got to we’ll we’ll add one more thing to that too then we’ll add we can add something we can figure it out in the comments what in the comments what are we going to do with this bit with the yeah anything doesn’t even have to be Jets commanders just hit us up with with some fun stuff that sounds good I I like Benny on again short game solid uh you know rocking a hat with him so we’re going to go benan right here uh this week again he play he’s been playing well on tougher courses um I feel like this is right in his wheelhouse yeah t the GRE he’s fine let’s see if he can make a putt uh he did well at the last PJ Championship um I think he was on the first page of leaderboard if I’m not mistaken so so give me a little bit of betting on and my final casting in Cornerstone is going to be sun JM and I know this goes against what you’re thinking of this week because he’s not been the best uh at major championship he’s not been the best at us opens but the guy has been playing exceptional golf he’s been hitting a [ __ ] ton of Fairways his iron game average to above average his short game normally very very good one of the best parts of his game uh four top 10 in his last five or six events yeah I’m gon to ride that form for sunjay this week so my Cas game cornerstones for this week are going to be Brooks kka at $1,000 colore CWA at 9,400 um cam Smith at 8 700 and um sunj at 7100 this Le you close to 15K to fill out the rest of your lineups and I already have deing uh in there so you know where I’m going I’m going into the 6K range from our final plane it’s pretty easy play uh who do you like in the 7K range Kenny I’m I’m going to play HTH at this price at $7,600 I know his short game around the green is it’s poor but he’s he’s also like this minwoo situation where he can just chip in out of nowhere and and he’s so good in these Majors he’s so good at putting I thought about he’s just that Majors just seems he’s he rises up yeah yeah you know he’s he’s cool and $7,600 yeah I mean you know like are you gonna play Jordan spe over sirth right now like no are you gonna play Dustin Johnson no am i g to play Cameron young in the major at $7,500 yes I don’t care I I don’t care what he’s done like this guy I’ve always said his first win is going to be a major like that’s the that’s the best conditions for him play so bad I think i’ rather will I’d really have Willie Z I think yes I would Doo and I’m I’m a big fan of him but you got to if Camy young he’s been playing so bad his ownership’s going to likely be low very low you know what I’m saying like this could be the guy that helps you play the P play like think about these guys that that show up in these big tournaments go look at Camy Young’s major track record regardless of his form he’s always showing up so let’s go you know like majes these guys are weirdos they psychos golfers are freaks you know they they just they rise to the occasion and some of them don’t rise to the occasion so yeah um I’m cool with I’m cool with all the Koreans in this range I love every single one of them and I’m also a big big big fan of camon young and mani like I said so yeah those are my guys well menu is Korean I know I know it says basically Australia or whatever but it’s like me I’m I’m Korean right he’s Korean all right he’s Australian Australian Korean 6K range I like Brian armman a lot I feel like he again another guy who can hit do what he did at the Open Championship last year and hit driver while everyone else is hitting you know three iron and and and hybrids and stuff like that he can eat so accurate off the tea he can hit that driver uh just more like a morawa uh out there uh and he played you know he had a couple of bad rounds but he had a couple of good rounds too uh at at the um uh at the memorial so you know for major winner I like him at $6,900 I think that’s pretty good value Dean berer has been really playing well uh isn’t he South African he’s my boy he’s my boy yeah so I mean the dudes were playing really good on live uh I think he’s won a couple of DP World Tour events too of I’m he’s play at least played in some he won the South African um he’s won some he’s won something outside of Liv uh the guys were playing good a guy who could hit the ball pretty far Denny McCarthy uh he sort of plays well in tough us ch right Chip and Putt I mean that that guy same with Harris English another guy who another raises his Baseline at US Open championships for some reason his ass could go out there and hit at 275 yards like Jim furck and still finished top 10 and multiple us opens the last five years right I mean this the 6K range it ain’t your typical 6K talk about SEI wo who probably rates out the best all or all well B talk about se but you know see wo but God he sucks at Majors I don’t think he can play him because he’s so [ __ ] bad I got something for you on the majes for the Korean guys especially seu and and and sanj right because prior to this year they had the the military stuff on their mind right yeah they won the Commonwealth Games or something or the Asia games won their gold and now they exempt from military service right yeah so it’s been you know s always played well at the master but he’s never played well anywhere else I think with that off of their mind now we could see them those two in particular starting to potentially show some some face in in Mages again all right we would hope so because you know I mean those those two are like Korea’s hope them and Tom yeah for another major winner outside of um you know the [ __ ] dude y Yang you know did KJ ever win a major he won a players KJ one of the players one of the players um one guy sort of sneaky holy guard really really like him I think you’re going to be single digit owned one of the best with his long irons in this field right like one of the best from 175 Plus in this field in his last I’d say three months um so I I I think he could be a sneaky play down here baa at 6,500 another guy who I think can handle it and plays these tough courses I mean Houston which she won was not an easy course right uh so that guy I mean you got Lucas Glover Aaron Ry who rates out like top five in my model right uh he’s going to be a model King down here um I mean there’s just a ton of guys [ __ ] who finished runner up what about Ry what about ry’s making him so high in your model can you is it do you have driving accuracy or or long Ison proximity or because it’s not putting that’s for sure no it’s definitely not putting let’s see where I have on now not to put you on the spot but while you’re busy scooting I just I highlighted nine guys starting from $6,000 and I just dragged down nine of them from Alex naren all the way to arson airr that range not Thomas dietry in that range but you can maybe throw him in but that $69 to $6,700 range is loaded with Talent loaded with talent I like all those so Aaron Ry six approach in the last 24 rounds fifth T Green in this field uh fifth in 175 to 23th from 200 plus um eight top 10 in bogy of wins so he actually ranks fifth in my model um and again he’s uh not bad around the greens top 25 in this field in the last 24 rounds he just for some reason he’s just showing up huge uh down here and then like I said you had Adam adwin um who finished third this week and you have [ __ ] who finished second this week at live in that bottom 6K range who do you like in the 6K I just I mean I literally ran it off like dud that’s how deep this 6K section is that’s what I was saying while you were taking a peak there from 6,900 to 6700 I like pretty much every single one of those dudes and if I’m playing 150 lineups with Scotty in there you’re going to need some of these guys you’re going to just rotate them in and out of there and find find that combination so as the week goes along I’ll probably remove a few that land up being chalky you know and kind of just trying to find some some some pivots in this range and that’s likely where we’re going to go so you know it’s okay to Rattle a bunch of names before you know really where ownership will be going and maybe if we rattle off the right names we can really get the ownership going in the right direction can you so I love Daniel Burger this week everybody played Daniel I’m just kidding um no but um I like Cameron Davis though for sure he’s he’s going to be one of my favorite guys in the $6,300 range McKenzie U and seab bears over here as well think about short C Bear is starting to come along Kenny godamn my boy we need a South African guy to ready show up and he’s he’s working on distance there’s a guy called got that crazy ass story where he drank [ __ ] rat poison kid that some wild ass [ __ ] like he drank a Coke there was like a Coke on his kitchen table for some reason it was filled with rat poison yeah and he drank it and almost that’s South Africa for you dude yeah you know it’s it’s just it’s the wild wild nor put rat poison in [ __ ] Coke what we do in America is some people put like peanuts in coke in the South we don’t put rat poison in that [ __ ] no we don’t we don’t we don’t put and the panut is sort of weird too because I used to live down in r o Virginia people did that down there they would just stick peut I there was some wild drinking habits in r o Virginia I knew a guy who only drank red eyes which is like uh beer tomato juice and he and he brought his own seasoning salt Lowry Lowry seasoning wow so like he basically had it like hooked to his keychain and so anytime he come he come through the regular at the bar I worked at he I put the tomato juice I get him his blood light and he put He just [ __ ] shake the [ __ ] season seasoning salt just all over the [ __ ] beer I I tried it a couple times it wasn’t horrible uh chilada chilada’s camad are very good man I I’m a big fan especially Hang 20 20 20 years ago like I don’t know how popular I don’t know back then oh yeah so the wild drinking habits of people were wrong lots of lots of uh of uh moonshine lots of moonshine I I dated a girl from Frank County moonshine capital of the world uh and so she you know that’s if you watch like the Moonshine shows on Discovery Channel That’s the county where that [ __ ] happens right uh and she uh she used to go over to her crib and her sister’s crib Liv in booties right and uh her she had a fridge in the shed just full of just moonshine like pineapple strawberry moonshine peach moonshine all you do is eat the fruit you just get [ __ ] wrecked and like most white people you sit around around the campfire drink moonshine and listen to like country ass music country mus I did that I did that for for many a time when you drinking a moonshine country music that sounding all right you know what I’m saying and I I like I like older country music like George Jones and like uh um banjos and Travis uh you know like dudes like that like even G big fan this new country I’m just not a big fan um okay we going on topic any other guys in the CK before we moved down yeah McKenzie us I said Sheamus power Victor Perez Victor Perez folks 6100 likely going to be one of my favorite players in this range like yeah he’s playing so well so freaking well right now three straight top 10 yeah I’m not top 12 12 I mean he bogey bogey 1718 today he wasn’t fifth going in of course I had the each way on so that [ __ ] made me angry now 6K range little bit more difficult David ple uh give me give me David wig 5900 playing well on the Liv tour has won outside the Liv tour twice already I think he was top five at Liv Houston uh give me a little bit of him um I don’t know like these guys are my favorite who Harry har he’s hot right gotta play Harry dude and His short game is on in fire like because he’s chipping in yeah two one two KF events and then made it to the US Open by chipping in on 18 to for a playoff and then win the guy’s running hotter than hell right now so yeah he’s unbelievable if you’re looking for a guy that I think that no one’s going to play that plays well in difficult conditions with like short game needed sh Kim uh at 5900 I mean I’m Nick dunlop’s been playing good golf here recently yeah I think you I think you can go to him at $5,800 after that it starts getting a Sam Bennett you know he’s done it before ad majors has had success uh at Majors before um Wilding at 60 at 5600 who’s w a couple of Corin fairy tour events is going to be on the PGA tour next year uh Grant Forest who could hit the ball a mile hosino and 5500 who has really really good long iron play um there’s dudes uh but just stretching a little thin when you get down here you are stretching yourself very very thin but I few more too for you guys as you mentioned they higs um Peter Mard if you’re thinking about someone who can just blue color his way around a golf course chip and put his way around there he’s one of these guys right can you he’s like a a budget version of Cam Smith in a way and then you got Matt coocha who’s a an an AARP version of Cam Smith in a way so you’ve got these two guys going on there and and I think Mato manaco the guys made like a it’s not often you see somebody who who comes out so generationally talented and so young and I think he was winning World Tour tournaments at 16 goes off the planet for like a a decade 10 years and it’s just like didn’t he recently yes didn’t he win recently yeah yes so like I think the route of success for that long is is really exciting to see what he can get up to so um and then another guy like Ben kls if you’re thinking about someone who’s just a like these Scrappy scramblers you know who don’t necessarily have the longest irons but we can get up and down and just kind of have a career week somehow with the short game he’s definitely another guy look into and Brandon Todd I mean he’s he’s 6K flat so um Chris Chris Chris nagles made both of his cuts at us opens I think and he’s had a couple of top oppon going for tour like near the bare minimum and he Patrick Rogers in the field he is I think I don’t know he’s he’s not in the field he’s not in the field no because I liked him a lot at the PGA because he’s US Open and PGA Championship records been great but to to be damned so all right anything else before we finish up that was a fun
