we’ve got the Rocket Classic going up for the PGA. But live is back this week taking quite a few weeks off. We haven’t seen the live guy since before the US open. But in Dallas to get themselves back cooking. So that means of course Brady Cannon is with us as always before the live events. Brady, great to see you as always, my man. As a collective, we have all been doing very well here in thet couple of weeks. And then you got we were just talking about it. You had some some hot picks for first round leader this morning that unfortunately just came up short. I mean Putnam you had in there, Victor Perez you had in there, you had a bunch of guys, but unfortunately Min Woo Lee clipped you. Yeah, I know he got me with a 30 foot bomb of a putt on his final hole. Now, Aldrich guitar might might clip min woo. Lee might. He’s probably going to get to at least nine under. Maybe he’ll get to ten. And it makes sense. A big hitter like him on this golf course. But yeah, I woke up this morning and saw Perez and Putnam both tied for the lead. I was off to a good start, but oh well, close, but no cigar, it looks like. And I know that I saw some of your picks from last night. I know that we’re all usually when we’re all reading the same mail. s a good thing, but not the best start. We were all on Cameron Young this week. I mean, believe me, not just us, I mean everybody, everybody’s on camera. Very popular. Yeah, this week, but only one under through 11 here in the afternoon. Wave right now for Cam Young. And you know for when you look at these scores Brady I mean there’s tons of guys six under seven under eight under. That’s not encouraging for us. That Cam Young on a big scoring day is only one under through 11. Well it’s not a day when you want to make bogeys. And I think he just made one because he had it to two I believe I thought he had it to two under. He was going the right direction. And so that looks bogeyed 11 okay. Yeah I mean this this is not the type of tournament where you can really afford to make too many bogeys here. We’ll see how he can perform here over his last seven holes. But you know we talked about Polk guitar I think the course is perfect for Cam Young too. And you know you guys all drank the Kool-Aid. You all joined forces on Keegan Bradley last week and it worked out. I’m hoping I wanted to join the party with you this week. And we’re all four on on Cam Young. I wasn’t buying in because we know this guy infamously has finished runner up seven times, but it just feels like the timing might be right here. I would be surprised, Mike, if he’s not in the mix, you got to believe he’s going to finish top ten, if not better. Maybe he can chip us a couple of birdies her. Brady may get to get to like three. And then he can go out early tomorrow morning. And maybe he gets a good side of the early side. And he can do some damage on that place. Let’s get to live now of course we’re going back to Dallas Marido Golf Club, which has been there I think opened in 2017. They were there last year for the team championship is when Liv played in Dallas. Tell us a little bit about this course Brady. Yeah, it’s a big boy. Course it’s almost 7600 yards. It is a par 72. And you’re right, the team competition was there at Meredow in Dallas, Carrollton, Texas about 20 minutes north of Dallas. What have you Ripper GC the contingent of Australians won the team competition there last year. Interesting note about the golf course, though. It is the home course for the University of North Texas, the Green Wave and a couple of live members, Carlos Ortiz and Sebastian Munoz, went to North Texas and played this golf course in college. So they’re familiar with this track. And it was Munoz at the team competition last year who had the low round of the tournament, shot a 64 here. And what I’ve read about the course, as big as it is, apparently there is a little bit of a premium on accuracy. You got to be able to find fairways here, you got to be able to hit greens in regulation, and that’s another part of it. When you’re not hitting greens in regulation, you got to be able to scramble. So you know we don’t have as much data or as much history on the live circuit as we do with the PGA tour. So I just honed in on driving accuracy, greens in regulation and scrambling this week. Yeah. And that’s something to look at, that’s for sure. I know that when we get to the picks, which we’re going do now, I’m with you on Munoz for several reasons and price being one of them too, because as we look at our big board, as we always do Brady, before these live events, it’s the same guys at the top every week, and they’re always extremely chalky with Rahm and Bryson and Joaquin Niemann, Tyrrell Hatton. So we try to find some guys a little bit further down that maybe can bust out. And it seems like anyone, you know, Munoz is as good as any of those shots. Brady with how he’s been playing. Absolutely. And I’m 100% with you. I almost went with both short shots. I almost took Bryson and Rahm. But you know, ultimately I left Bryson off. I did go with Rahm. You know he’s never not finished top ten in his live career 20 straight top ten finishes. He probably Mike would have won the US open if he if his putter was just lukewarm he could not make a putt. But he played beautifully. Tee to green. I think he’s the second best player in the world right now. Went with Rahm and then yeah you’re right. You know it’s I mean you got 50 guys in the tournament right. And Rahm is probably the best player on this circuit followed by DeChambeau and then Niemann. I mean it’s like ten guys are so much better than the rest of the field. But yeah, I went down the board a little bit. Munoz is one of those guys like you talk about. I was able to find 29. I think 25 is pretty much a consensus number. On Munoz. We talk about the familiarity with the course, the low 64 round last year and this guy, what I was mentioning as far as the skill sets, second on live and driving accuracy, sixth in birdie, sixth in greens in regulation, 14th in putting. He’s the Joaquin Niemann of the top ten finish. Four times out of eight live events this season. He’s finished top ten. Yeah, he’s been good. The best I could find this morning was 22 on Munoz in New York. That was the best number I can get. So you got a good number with him. You got a good number on Gooch too? Brady I know you’re on him as well. Yeah I yeah I stumbled across that number and I, I don’t know what it means. I don’t know if I made a mistake. I mean I’m seeing basically 30 this morning. Yeah I’ve seen 35 or whatever. And I got this 50. I’m like oh my gosh. And I don’t like Taylor Gooch. I think he’s kind of made an out of himself with some of his comments since going over to the Liv. But you know what? The guy’s playing pretty darn well right now. Second, in driving accuracy on the circuit, tied with Munoz, third in scrambling, 13th in greens in regulation, and the form is starting to come around. Last four starts 12th, 13th third and 10th. So we’ll see if he’s ready to win again. So you’re obviously going with Rahm. You’re going with Munoz and you’re going with Gooch. I have one of those guys as well. I’m going to go with Munoz as well. I’m taking Bryson. You were back and forth. I can only take one heavy chalk just like you, Brady. There’s only one that I can take, right? Bryson is kind of a home game for him. It’s like 20 minutes from his house in Dallas as well. So I’ll go there. And Sergio, this is a storyline to this week I think Brady I think this is the last cutoff. Those guys who aren’t exempt for the o, there’s that one spot right, that can go to a Liv player. And Sergio and Munoz are kind of the two guys who are kind of closest to it. So I think we might get a little gas from those guys too. Brady being in that. And speaking of the open, Liv is at Valderrama the week before the Open Championship, where Sergio won last year as well.
