"Karl Vilips finished 19th on the money list"
dude, he had 8 starts and won on the Korn Ferry to get his card. Way different than having a full year. (Details matter bro)
I dislike the snub here.
McCarty won (straight off the Korn Ferry on the PGA)
This class has guys that have been winning everything since AJGAs
THORNBURG WAS RECENTLY IN THE HUNT in first PGA start
Grabbing a pacifier out of the garbage may be a very long shot. Scottie is such a good dad, his kids don’t need a pacifier. 😂
Scottie at 10 (9.5) wins is a wild take but would love to see it though. Great pod- refreshing to listen to people who actually know golf
Hope Smylie and Charlie add Tiger Golf League into the discussion. The first match is Tuesday Night. I could tell Smylie and Charlie had fun playing detectives trying to figure out the crazy injuries to Scottie and Viktor. I think Viktors injury was in the middle of the night, probably had to go to the bathroom wasnt awake 100% and hit the bedframe. I have done it. I think Charlie and Smylie nailed Scotties injury. He probably was holding Bennett in 1 arm helping Meredith get a glass to start serving drinks in the air. Clumsy moment happened and bam!. Cant wait to see what this channel will give us this year. Glad to be back in the fold after a week off following the silly events in December.
If he struggles again this week, there needs to be some serious Max Homa concern talk next week especially considering it’s a Ryder cup year. I’m worried with the amount of changes he’s made recently coach & equipment, it all seems desperate
The hour and a half just flew by. Very enjoyable listen!
Great listen! Are you guys going to do one and done picks this year?
I’m with the Bennett in one hand theory, but I’d add that they were likely taking freshly washed dishes out of the dishwasher, and hot wine glasses are extremely fragile…Bumps hand against counter while turning towards the cabinet, and wine glass explodes in his hand….yes I’ve done this exact same thing in years past
Great content, fellas. Looking forward to this season!
Masters: Zalatoris
PGA Champ: Morikawa
