The volume. What is going on everybody? How are we doing? Hopefully everyone's having a great weekend. Just watched the PGA Championship, so I said, you know what, let's do a little go lo. Scottie Scheffler wins the third major of his career, knocks off the second leg of the career Grand Slam, winning the PGA Championship a year after he was thrown in jail on a Friday morning during this tournament. But Scottie Scheffler kicks everyone's butt wins the PGA Championship. We will dive into that. Rory McElroy, who refused to speak to the media, not today, the entire week after his driver was found non compliant, we will dive into that. A complete embarrassment for a sport that I love. I'm not even just putting this just on Rory, the entire operation. Bryceon d Chambeau continues to flex his muscles, finishes second in this tournament for the second straight year, just dominating the last couple of years in majors, and solidifies himself as a US Ryder Cup player, that's for sure. John Rahm, my fellow Scottsdale resident, showed signs of life now he imploded at the end, but at one point in time today it did feel like could John rom win this tournament? And yeah, we'll hit on a couple other things as well as some of your male bag questions at Golo Pod. At Golo pod is the instagram, I think, because we'll probably do some football podcast the rest of this week, I might as well just do a a full on go Loo podcast right now, so we will answer some of your questions. But if you want to get involved in that. Obviously, it's a Memorial Day weekend coming up this weekend, so probably be a little shorter of a week. Fire in those dms if you wan't got any football questions, you guys know, just fireing my regular dms at John Middlecoff is just my name. But before we dive into some golf and the second major of the year, you know, I gotta tell you about my friends, my partners, and the official ticketing app of this podcast, Game time best in the business.

After Scotty's little mishap over the winter break when he split open his hand and got glass yards in there, he claims making raviolis, Listen, we've all had some misaps having a few cocktails. Regardless how it happened, his season got off to a slow start. He had a tiger like season last year, winning what felt like every freaking tournament. He won the Masters, he won the FedEx, he won like sixty million dollars, and it was like, this guy's a monster. And then this year happens and he doesn't win the Masters, and it's like, you know, Scotty, like right now, at this point in time in his career, the money, the wins, the I mean, he's just such a heavy favorite in every tournament he plays in. Now, you know, minus four or plus four hundred or plus three hundred, he's like a four to three to one. I mean good players typically as someone who's been gambling on golf now for I don't know half a day, you know, high high end guys or like eleven to one, twelve to one, fourteen to one, and Scotty is routinely like four to one. And honestly, it doesn't feel that crazy. Your boy might have threw a little on him, why, just because he's a great player, and then all of a sudden in the middle of these tournaments he'll be like minus four fifty. Like this guy's a fucking monster. I don't know what it looked like in the Tiger era, because you know, the draft Kings of the world did not exist but I would imagine there were a lot of similarities. When this guy gets on and he won the tournament Saturday night or Saturday afternoon, that's when the tournament was won. And I would say, listen, Scotty Scheffler has won a lot, He's won multiple green jackets. That stretch that he had on Saturday afternoon, hold fourteen to close it out till eighteen, you know, birdying four of his last five holes and just knocking it stiff after stiff. It's like she had to be one, especially relative to the field, as the entire field has fallen apart, had to be one of the greatest five six hole stretches of his career. And today what feels good about validating this if you're Scotty Scheffler is like, there were some questions, like he plays really well at the Masters, He's won all these tournaments, Like are you gonna Sart knocking off some of these other majors. He's like, yes, yes, I am. We'll start with here at Quayle Hollow. You know that course that everyone says that Rory wins over and over, or that course that your boy thought that Bryson D. Chambeau was going to demolish. I'm not just gonna win that. I'm gonna win that by five, and I'm also gonna bogie eighteen, where I easily could have won by six. No one was even close to me. Remember a couple of weeks ago when I won by like ten and I absolutely blew up the field, and you're like, well, you're playing nobody's how about we go to a major best field in golf. Mean, he said, the PGA Championship, and I beat the living piss at everyone in sight. And that's what he just did. And listen, I'm not going to compare anyone ever to Tiger Woods, but Scotty is a monster. I mean he is. He is so freaking good at golf it's stupid. And here's the thing. Over the last five years at majors, this guy is a bright lights player. Starting in twenty twenty one, he was T eighteen, thaight, T seven, T eight and all the majors. Then he started winning. In twenty two, he won the Masters, He missed the cut at the PGA, but then he finished second at the US Open T twenty one, and these last couple of years, it's like it's not even a fair fight T ten, T two third, T twenty three first, TA T forty one, T seven fourth first, and he's gonna be the heavy, heavy favorite at Oakmont and his game like no one will ever be Tiger Woods. I've said it all the time. His name is unique, right, just his story, his dad Earl, like the whole thing, I mean started from a young age, the dominance. But what this guy's doing right now? And I felt pretty confident about this, Like is he gonna win fifteen majors like Tiger? Of course not, I think that would be crazy to even put out there. But is this guy more likely to win eight or nine than four or five? I would say yes, because the only thing that could remotely slow him down was some glass yards in a hand, because when you watch him against Bryson, against Rohm, against whoever, there's a clear gap and Rory, who will get and do in a minute, Like what the hell was that? Now? You could argue that Rory winning the Masters playing with little house money, not as much pressure on this tournament. I would tend to agree. But when you're having one of the best seasons of your career, you've already won three times, you had the monkey off your back with the Masters. This is a course in which you've won a multiple times. You would think that he would show up, but he's nowhere to be found. Bryson is an incredible talent. I mean, to me, the craziest part about Bryson is he is blowing at thirty forty yards by Scottie Shuffler. His short game is unreal. I mean, he had a couple flop shots today around the green as someone that had him to finish in the top five, like I was kind of on tilt, but he had a couple wedges around the that were world class. And his putting is excellent. But to me, like you watch Scotty Scheffler, I could give him a seven iron and I go, Scotty hit this two hundred yards. He could hit it two hundred yards. I'd say, I could say Scotty hit like a buttercut and hit it one hundred and fifty eight yards and he could hit it about that vicinity. Meanwhile, Bryson's one hundred and ninety five yards. He's hitting nine iron. Like, I'm not here to nitpick Bryson's operation. It clearly works and he's an elite player. But like the gap between Scotty and Bryson when it just comes to hitting irons. Like I heard I was going to pick up dinner last night and I was listening to the No Laying Up. They do like a reaction show after every major day, and DJ Pie, one of their guys, was saying, like, it can't be easy to play when you're hitting a nine iron or one hundred and ninety five yards, Like what are you hitting a six iron? One? Like what's the point of some of these longer clubs. It's not like you're hitting a five iron two hundred and ninety yards, so your distances are all wacky, but like your wedges, like what are you doing from like one for fifty one seventy and a couple times a day. You're watching Bryson, he's not even close. And that's where Scotty will eat you alive is like give him one sixty. That's where he's very very comfortable with And you're watching Bryson, who honestly should have been right there, but his iron play is just kind of wacky. I mean, listen, I'm not one to say like he shouldn't be playing the same length irons, but like whatever, Scotty is able to do with like a seven iron a nine iron in his hand. It feels like Bryson's playing like Kyle Berkshire on Instagram. It's like, what are we doing here? And listen John Rahm, who to me is like a legit high end player when he's on like today, melted at the end, but a lot like Scotty, like has a bunch of different shots in the back and at one point in time today Scotty is just leaking oil, just your classic, playing like shit. He's just playing really bad, not because the moment's too big, not because he's overwhelmed, not because he's never won a big tournament, not because there's he's just not on. Something was just off. And then you look up, he finishes the ninth toll or basically he's on ten, he's nine under. John Rom is also nine under with a Birdie putt on twelve from like ten feet. John Ram misses his Scotty, then Birdie's ten, and then it flips, and then Scotty never looks back. And once Scotty got that little buffer, then Rom got toward whatever they call it, the Green Mile and just kind of imploded. And then it ended up like John Rom's not even on like the leaderboard you see on TV, and Bryson's right there. Now, Bryson technically wasn't that close, but there were a couple of moments today and even yesterday it's like I don't really know what's going on. Like I get it, he's got these weird irons, but uh, you know, to me, Scotty's a much more complete player for a guy that's not even hitting it. And I heard a couple people say, like if you followed that group with Xander and Rory and Scottie on Thursday and Friday, that those guys are blown it by Scotty, like twenty yards twenty five yards, And listen, if you play with another individual that's longer than you, that's not that weird. It is kind of weird when you look at Scotty. He's a big ass dude. Xander's much smaller and he hits it way farther than him. But like when you're splitting fair ways, then you're knocking it on greens and you're making putts like it doesn't really matter. And that's the one thing with golf, obviously, distance is very very important Bryson's kind of hacked the system, but you still got to get the ball in the hole. And that, to me is a skill that like, even when Scotty started to unravel today, I never thought like this is implosion coming. It never crossed my mind he was gonna shoot seventy six. Now I did think, like, if John rom starts birdying three or four holes, maybe they just both end up at like ten or eleven under it and we have a playoff. But the one thing that Scotty has in the back and I would say this is the similarity with Tiger and what Rory definitely does not have in common. It's hard to fathom him just if he has a shitty front nine him backing that up with a bad back nine in a tournament like this, where when we watched Rory at the Masters, you're like, he could blow this, Like it didn't cross my mind that Scotty was going to blow it. Now he opened the door and let someone in. But you're like, he's got a couple of par fives, Like, you know, if this was football, he'll make some place. And what did he do? He made some place? And then obviously the course is difficult. You know rom had to get aggressive and he just kind of melted it down. And Bryson. That's the thing with Bryson, It's like he's been off, I thought in the Masters and definitely this week with his iron play, with his approach game, but his wedges are I mean, he had a couple. He had a flop shot today on fourteen, that drivable part four where he hits it right of the bunker and it's way above on the mound. I can't even imagine how difficult that shot is and he knocked it like three or four feet, And it's like, Bryson, you have incredible touch around the greens. You're obviously an elite putter now, and I think most would consider you, especially if Rory is going to drive the ball like he did this week. You're the best driver in the world. What is going on with this this iron situation? And listen, Scotty took advantage of it and he wins his third major and all signs point to him now. Oakmont, which many consider like the hardest golf course in the world, especially when you factor in major conditions, and if I just tell you out loud, they're going to play the hardest golf course in the world. Who are you going to like, you would immediately say Scottie Scheffler. Now, I don't know if he's gonna win the US Open by five or six shots, but I think at this point in time, given the way he's played now in his last two events and what he did over the course of the last two days, it would be stunning if he doesn't win this US Open, and if he wins the US Open. Listen, the British is weird. Whether you never know, it does feel like he's so good that he will inevitably win one. You just kind of with a guy who knows. I do feel pretty confident at this point in time, Like you see some of these guys like you know, Spease one four, Keepka's one five, Rory's won five, Like like it feels like Scott he's gonna fly right by him and the only thing that can slow him down is an injury because he's got Ted Scott, who's Bubba Bubba Watson's old caddie. Uh. Their cohesion like it's like the equivalent like Belichick and Brady. It's like they were just made for each other. It's perfect. And what a fucking clinic, and honestly, what he did on Saturday afternoon. If you tell me, like, what's been Scotty Scheffler's coolest like hour that you remember watching him play golf, it would be Saturday afternoon at Kuile Hollow in the PGA Championship. Now he has he's only twenty eight years old. He's got a lot of golf left. But like so far in his career and he listen, he's won the Masters multiple times, but it does feel like that stretch on Saturday afternoon was the equivalent of like a drag race and he's in like a legit drag racing car and you're in like a Pinto and he flew by everybody. And it gave him that buffer today where when he is just all over the map, but he starts with a bogie. This week on one he's hitting the ball over the place off the tea. You're like, God, what is going on here? It gave him a little breathing room. And to me, if he doesn't have that breathing room, if he instead of shooting sixty five, he shoots sixty nine and he only has a one shot leader, he's tied and all of a sudden he's three back. I think that pressure. It just would have been a different situation, right, given where he would have stood on the leaderboard. But he couldn't have been playing any shittier. Rom had made multiple birdies and we're tired and he's ahead of me. So I still got the par fives. It was just a different mindset. So I do believe no matter what anyone says, that this tournament was one on Saturday. But that's what Scotty Scheffer does when everyone else was not playing well because the course was playing outrageously hard. I mean, this is the place that a lot of times you watch Augusta, You're like, I understand, it's hard. I would love to play there. You watch Pinehurst, you're like, listen, I want to play that golf course. Even last week you're watching Philly Cricket Club, You're like, I would love the tea it up there. Anytime they're playing overseas, you're like, this, Saint Andrew's you name it right, I would love to do this as long as it's not too cold and too wet. This is one of those rare courses that they play in a big event where you go, yeah, I got no interest. Does not look fun, I mean, does not look like an enjoyable round of golf. Too long, too much rough, the greens are way too hard. It just looks like miserable golf. And when I tell you, it's like miserably hard, difficult conditions, firm greens, not shocking the scotty, just one by five.

Uh. Their cohesion like it's like the equivalent like Belichick and Brady. It's like they were just made for each other. It's perfect.

But like so far in his career and he listen, he's won the Masters multiple times, but it does feel like that stretch on Saturday afternoon was the equivalent of like a drag race and he's in like a legit drag racing car and you're in like a Pinto and he flew by everybody. And it gave him that buffer today where when he is just all over the map, but he starts with a bogie. This week on one he's hitting the ball over the place off the tea. You're like, God, what is going on here? It gave him a little breathing room. And to me, if he doesn't have that breathing room, if he instead of shooting sixty five, he shoots sixty nine and he only has a one shot leader, he's tied and all of a sudden he's three back. I think that pressure. It just would have been a different situation, right, given where he would have stood on the leaderboard. But he couldn't have been playing any shittier. Rom had made multiple birdies and we're tired and he's ahead of me. So I still got the par fives. It was just a different mindset. So I do believe no matter what anyone says, that this tournament was one on Saturday. But that's what Scotty Scheffer does when everyone else was not playing well because the course was playing outrageously hard. I mean, this is the place that a lot of times you watch Augusta, You're like, I understand, it's hard. I would love to play there. You watch Pinehurst, you're like, listen, I want to play that golf course. Even last week you're watching Philly Cricket Club, You're like, I would love the tea it up there. Anytime they're playing overseas, you're like, this, Saint Andrew's you name it right, I would love to do this as long as it's not too cold and too wet. This is one of those rare courses that they play in a big event where you go, yeah, I got no interest. Does not look fun, I mean, does not look like an enjoyable round of golf. Too long, too much rough, the greens are way too hard. It just looks like miserable golf. And when I tell you, it's like miserably hard, difficult conditions, firm greens, not shocking the scotty, just one by five.

Speaking of the most embarrassing thing that happened this week, we go back to Morikawa whatever a couple months ago when he got in the spat with basically Rocko Brandle a bunch of older guys that said, like listen man, part of this sport were pros. This isn't the amateur hour, This isn't the minor leagues. This is the big leagues. And when you lose a tournament and you're a big time player and you melt down, part of it is facing the music. No different than Lebron James or Steph Curry or Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson or whoever. Cam Newton didn't jump on guess what in twenty sixteen, what did he do after the Super Bowl? He spoke It's part of the business and this whole thing, this is entertainment. Where do you think the money comes from. We don't just make it up out of the sky, right. People are paying a ton of money, a lot of sponsors that the fans like. This is all part of the business model. And Roy McElroy like, I didn't know. Now I'm not super into the weeds of like wait, we every Tuesday of a major they test fifty guys for the uh whatever the exact terminology is of the driver And at first you read it, you're like, is this like a cork bat? And it's actually the opposite. The more worn down that your face becomes sometimes I guess, the more explosive it can become off the clubhead and they just randomly test fifty drivers. So some guys like a TSA check right, Scotty Scheffler could show up, don't test the thing or back to back weeks they could test them, and they test Roy McElroy. As Xander said, they also tested Scotty and according to Xandra, he failed as well. Change the club Taylor made whoever. They're all of these tournaments, so if you need to get access to anything, they're right there. They know exactly your respects. They work with you like no different than your agent or your manager. And you're watching Rory and here here's my issue. And I give Brian Windhorst credit on this because he's one of the only guys that covers the NBA that consistently talks about this, because he compares the model to the NFL, and he's like, if we're gonna be all in on gambling, there has to be specific ways that we handle injuries. And it's become very nefarious over the years that like wait till the last second and say a guy's out with rest or whatever. Where the NFL where they're still shady shit going on the injury report. If you're gonna gamble on a team, like you have a pretty good idea. This guy's missed Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday at practice. You're not shocked when he can't play Sunday, or he's completely healthy and something pops up Friday, You're like, wait, this guy miss practice with Friday. He's like, yeah, felt little something in his hamstring. So you just you have so comprehension. It's for the gambling public and the competition gets to know. Yet in golf, they're all independent contractors, so they all can do whatever they want, which I understand is fine. Yet they're all under the umbrella of this business model that is the PGA Tour, that is professional golf. And Roy McElroy who gets in trouble for not in trouble but has to change out as driver, which I don't know is kind of a big story because he's the greatest driver in the history of the sport and he just won the fucking Masters and because of the setup, he doesn't have to say a word for four days. For four days, and this gets back to the Morikawa thing. I don't owe you anything. Yet no one actually owes anyone anything except people. You're in business with then we all have deals with other people, and then no, you kind of do owe other people other things. And now that you know the Arthur Blanks and the business people are trying to get involved with the PGA, they're already with TGL. This Saudi Live thing is eventually going to consolidate. There has to be some sort of rules because I totally understand last year when people were asking Rory McElroy about his divorce of like, guys, I'm not talking about that. Totally understand, and I think that is totally fair to him to like, he doesn't have to say shit about that, just like if you ask Mahomes or an NFL player an NBA player about something in their personal life, they don't have to say a word. But when it came out that the footballs were deflated, guess what we want to hear from Belichick and Tom Brady. So when something happens with your driver, which is on the course situation, especially his most potent club at a course which is really long, and then for those of us that are gambling on a guy like Rory, he's fucking all over the map on Thursday, It's like something's up but doesn't cross my mind that he has a new driver and then it comes out on Friday afternoon. Yeah, he failed test and they had to give him a new driver, and then he just refuses to talk Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. I don't know what else to say, besides like that's kind of a minor league operation, and these guys want to act like this is the big leagues. This is you know, we should play for more money than ever, Like the money, the money, the money, Like there's a reason the money, the money, the money in the NFL, and there are rules. The coach has to talk X number of times every week, every single time after the game, same with the players or else. There are consequences like this is not okay. This makes the sport look to me like low level. You are the biggest start. Do you think Tiger Woods in a million years over an equipment issue? When you are the biggest star in the sport, which Rory currently is, you are just won the Masters a month ago, and then you have a situation like this and you just refuse to say a word for four days. I'm not even acting like it is that big a deal. I really don't care. But one this is also a problem with the sport that wants to be taken legitimately and as someone that gambles a lot of money on this love my guys at DraftKings just won forty five hundred dollars. Now, actually I won forty five hundred, but I bet about four so I won about five hundred. Sometimes it comes out like, yeah, my wrist has been bothering me on a Saturday or Sunday with a player. It's like what this is the whole problem with the complex and the setup of what's going on. They want to be the big leagues. They want to play for all this money, but no one wants to have an injury report. No one wants to have mandates of Like I don't know, if you're a top twenty player and you're playing in a tournament, you have to speak after every round. I don't know, it's just part of the business. Can you imagine if like, yeah, you know, Josh had a big situation I don't know with a football or with a teammate and he just for the entire month he just wouldn't talk after any games. That not only would never have happen, and it can't happen because he would start getting fined and it would not be tolerated. Why because that's an unhealthy part of the business. You want that guy to speak. It just expands the popularity and the attention that is on your sport. So I really think the Rory thing that there's no way around it, which again it's up to him, like there is no one above him. There's no one above any of these guys like Mara Calison. I can do whatever I want. I don't owe anyone anything, even though there are people in business that are paying for all this shit, like you owe certain people certain things. I don't know the people putting on this tournament, the people that will put on this tournament next year. This money doesn't just come from the sky, comes from your partners, comes from the operation. And when a guy like Rory has a situation like this and makes a mockery over it, it kind of pisses me off because there's someone that loves this sport and I understand, like it's a niche deal, like you know, on good days, three or four million people watch on a Saturday or Sunday, but like it's the only sport where guy's fifty sixty seventy eighty years old, are playing all over America. It's never seen a greater run of growth over the last three or four years. And you have more eyeballs on this operation than ever. And then your biggest name has an issue, which honestly can be good. It just creates a conversation and refused to comment on it. You didn't just get caught fucking doing steroids, Rory. You didn't just get caught with a bag of drugs. Your driver didn't pass some test. Most people, including myself, don't even quite understand what that even means. We don't even care. I just want to hear your opinion on it. Are you mad? Do you think it's bs? What's your thoughts on the situation? That adds to the conversation. And Scottie Schaeffler last year got arrested, let me repeat, got arrested on Friday morning, somehow pulled off because of a rain delay. Still was able to play after that round. It would have been easy for him to, like, listen a lot going on. I don't want to speak. I'm leaving. I know I'm the number one player in the world. Today was fucking crazy. I just want to get home, have a sandwich and put my feet up and take a deep breath with my family. He spoke, and then he spoke the next day and the next day. Why because it's called being a pro. And I think Rory for a guy that gets a lot of credit of like everyone likes him, he's super nice and he seems like a good guy. Like this is now like last year Bryson d Chambeau just fire out of there, like Josh Allen Lamar Jackson aren't able to just leave after Patrick Mahomes's name, he re beat him again. Guess what they have to talk? I mean, I'd say the NFL. Whatever the NFL is doing when it comes to media stuff, this sport should follow. And Rory McElroy, who is basically like an NFL quarterback relative to golf, like just avoiding it all week in the middle of like a controversial situation is just a joke. I mean that there's really no other way to like dance around this topic of like, and I'm someone who likes the guy. I enjoy watching him play, but I think this is a pretty low level moment for the guy. And of course during that moment, you got Bryson D Chambeau who's waiting after to hug Scotty And you could go, oh, he's just doing that for the cameras whatever. He's done that now multiple times. So it's like you can think Bryce's douchey, you can think he was a weirdo a couple of years ago. At least he'll answered the music, like, at least he won't run away from whatever's going on. I mean, this is a guy that had issues with Brooks. I mean, you got Brooks, you got a heckler screaming at Kopka that guaranteed money will basically ruin your game, and then Kepka turned around screaming at him, and then Kepka getting seen most relatable picture in recent memory. It looked like at like a seven to eleven. I guess where are they? They're in Charlotte, so not sure. I've never been to that area. What their go to? Like? Gas station kind of mini marts are something like that. Uh, you just get in the case of Miller Lite and just gonna go drink his face off after a pretty embarrassing couple of days and listen, he's the guy that probably could not talk. It doesn't feel like talking but I would say this oftentimes he might give shitty answers at least at least still sit there in front of the cameras. So I just think, like, you can't be this big of a player right there with Rom obviously Scotty and and bryceon and just go M I A from the cameras. Like I just don't understand where he thinks his money. I never understand these like like, it's not about like I don't owe somescribe anything. It's no one's reading these newspapers. No one beside other media members are reading most of these articles. It's not about that, honestly, It's about these quotes being distributed on social media so people that follow the sport can see them or the clips of you talking. Why, because that's how what generates attention. We're in the we're all in the attention business, and he's not the most interesting guy, but he draws your attention by being elite at golf. Bryson has a lot of different elements, right His YouTube brings the attention, his game brings the attention. Rory is an attention bringer. Does a lot of you know, things that kind of moved the needle, whether it's his play, whether it's some of his comments. But now we have a history now multiple times when the fucking flame gets turned up and it gets a little hotter. Tiger's been in a million of these situations. What does every old person say about Tiger? He never didn't face the music, he never didn't talk win, loser, draw it. Now, he won a lot more than he lost, but he had a lot of crazy shit going on in his career. And if he's around, if you didn't play in the tournament, whatever, but if you're there and you are the star player, I'm sorry you have to speak over Like what happened to your best club? Why was it taken out of your back? Did you use it in the Masters? Did you know anything was off? Was this something like? Was this a surprise to you? And if you want to storm off after like I don't know what's going on and just leave, okay, But to just avoid it for four straight days just a low level moment for the guy. It really is someone that just had the greatest moment of his life, just had a moment where ten plus million people watched him win the Masters and everyone was just was thrilled. I mean, it was an exhilarating athletic performance and then this happens. It's just god damn. Last, but not least, before we dive into some of your questions, one thing that we have seen is you would have to be on drugs to bet against anyone that isn't a big dog in these majors like the Day and Age. Not that it won't ever happen again, but I think it clearly feels maybe it's the pressure some of these signature events, the separation would live. You know, money's all relative, but clearly there's never been more money on the line. I could never put any money on a random guy winning any of these tournaments. Honestly, even like a thirty forty fifty to one I consider a long shot. When you look at the last six majors, Scotty, Xander Bryson, Xander Rory, Scotty, Who do you think is gonna win the US Open? Scotty or Bryson? Maybe if Rory can get his driver out of his ass, Rory like the days of just like some random Brian harmon now it could still happen at the British that's a bad example. But some of these guys, the US open, I mean distance. Now, these guys are hitting it so far. Scotty's not missing fairways for the most part, and then he's so much better at irons than you, Like, you don't have a shot. I do think the cream is really separated. And now if you want to take some guys to top ten, top twenty. But my gambling philosophy, I sprinkled on all three top guys, Bryson, Rory, and Scotty. Now I was much more bullish coming into this weekend on Rory and Bryson, but it was clear after Friday It's like, well, Scotty's gonna be a major factor here, and he was the betting favorite going into the weekend. But I just think you bet the big dogs, you know, I mean shit, you look at Bryson, you know he won Pinehurst. Though I think the Pinehurst Oakmont aren't really gonna parallel each other. You can spray it a little bit at Pinehurst, I don't know if you're gonna be able to do that at Oakmont watching some of these YouTube golfers that played there like a couple of weeks ago. But moving forward, I mean, it does feel like it's just just the big dogs. And everyone else. Let's dive into some of your questions really quick before we get out of here. Why doesn't the PGA Tour develop or buy their own courses. I know it's a lot more work for them short term, but I feel like it would pay off down the line. They could develop a number of courses more fit for major events. Well, there's only so much land in America that hasn't already been bought or you know, used, right, So there's a lot of premium land in certain areas probably have like housing developments, and then the golf course that already exists that are cool, that are quote unquote private clubs or established golf courses are not going to sell to the PGA Tour. Now, the PGA Tour does own golf courses. I play at one TBC Scottsdale. They have an event TBC Sawgrass, they have the Players TPC. There's one in Vegas, I think Summerland. I've heard it's really nice. They have one in Texas where they have I think the Valero they're having is a TBC frisk go in a year like So, they do own a lot of golf courses that they profit off of. Now, major venues. There are only so many courses in America that you feel comfortable hosting a major at right Masters has that taken. But when you look at the PGA and you look at the US Open, you know there are some courses that are always going to be on the rotation. The PGA tour can never buy Pebble Beach or Olympic Club. Right, Quail Hollow isn't for sale. I'm trying to think of some other courses. Oakmont, I mean, that's a that's a private course in Pittsburgh. Like they're not selling that thing. Wingfoot it's a public course owned by I would imagine the city in New York. It's not available for purchase. So I hear what you're saying. I think it's probably a little more complicated than the execution to pull that off. Question for the bag, can you share any insight in the Vegas Giant MLB logo across his chest? I can imagine another major sport that allows sponsorship logos on jerseys being okay with the promotion of another sport. I know, I mean, I don't even know what to say. I've never really thought about it that way. I don't think if your golf, you really care if guy is an NFL or Major League logo on you, I'm not quite sure. I think he's Venezuelan, so maybe there is some carryover of an international guy. Someone said that Payne Stewart used to have something similar, maybe like the NFL. He was a big I think Steeler fan. But I don't think golf cares at all. Like I don't think they viewed Major League Baseball as like competition. I don't think Baseball views it that way either. I think it's more where he comes from. Promoting to that region for baseball would be my guess. I'm sure there are articles out there. Maybe I'll google that tonight. How would you rank the states? The states in terms of golf? Have you ever heard of Crosswater Golf Course in Bend, Oregon or Circling Raven in Northern Idaho? No, I haven't. I haven't played golf in that many states. I've never played golf in Florida. I've never played golf in any you know, Charlotte area, which I think is fewed really highly. The majority of my golf is California, now Arizona. I've played Bandon Dunes in Oregon and then I've played in the Philadelphia, Jersey area, so in my experience, I mean California is pretty special. It has some of the best and most important courses in the sport, right I would say Pebble Beach, while not the best course, is got to be on the short list. Like if you go what's the most iconic golf courses in the world, I think Augusta and Saint Andrews in some order are one and two. And I think every single human casual or not casual. Pebble's getting listed pretty quickly. You know, Olympic Clubs a legendary US Open course. Torrey Pines is a unique public course that has hosted just tournaments for a long long time. I mean, riv has one of the best tournaments on the PGA Tour. Countless other courses in LA, especially private ones, from LACC to Beverly Hills Country Club to you know, the Monterey area. Beside Pebble, you got Monterey Peninsula Country Club, you got Cyprus. You just got awesome courses in the Bay Area, San Francisco Country Club, Cow Club. So I would say it'd be hard to beat California. I think most people would say that either Jersey or Pennsylvania. It's a pretty beautiful area for golf. I've always wanted to get down to Florida. I mean just they're just obviously you got from Sawgrass to I think they played Seminal a couple of years ago, to the you know, Jordan's Club, to the Bear. I mean a lot of these are country clubs. But how do you think players feel about threesomes they are put into on Thursday and Friday. Didn't know where you're going with that at first. They always seem to load up groups with big stars, which is obviously good for viewership. Take Rory, Xander and Scotti at the PGA this week. Do you think they want to be with top contending guys to motivate them or would they rather not be distracted? I would guess if you could ask like a guy like Xander or Scottie or Rory, it doesn't necessary like because like Rory and Scotti and Bryson are such big draws. They could be playing with me and you and the crowd is going to be massive. I think the key is for people playing well. If you are playing with other guys on Thursday and Friday that are playing well, like anyone that's ever played golf. If you're having a good day and you're playing with other guys that are playing well, it's easier to keep that momentum going. Just like if you're playing shitty and everyone around you playing shitty, it just kind of goes that way. I I wonder too, at this point in time, a lot of these guys are numb, Like do they really see the fans? I bet most of them barely even notice. You know, where me and you if we were teen off for one hundred people, we'd be nervous. I just don't think these guys really like that anymore. So my guess would be when you're a big name, you're used to just playing with big name people, so you just kind of it's just part of the deal. On the chance you record a go low. Where do you think the top guys and live stand with their contracts. For guys like Bryson, Nieman and others who still have their competitive career in front of them, do you think they go back to the tour. For someone like Bryson, do you think he'd be willing to skip PGA Tour events for sake of having a time to YouTube in the future. It's clear no one cares about Live, and I can't imagine a merger happening with Li draining so much money, which is now a public story. Bad look. Does the PJ Tour sit back, relax and let all roads lead back to them? That kind of feels like what's happening currently is that we are just in a game of waiting them out. And I think it's clear if you had a draft pick, if you could have one guy off Live, it wouldn't PJ Tour, wouldn't even hesitate. You would take Bryson d Chambeau. It's a no brainer pick, I think with John Rahm showing signs of life again, John Rahm is not that old. So the thing is, though he just signed last year, so this is his second year. He's thirty years old. But he's a guy who's already won a couple of majors, Like I think you would like him and Bryson back. I mean, those are huge talents. You know, DJ's done, I feel like, and I don't even blame DJ doesn't feel like he cares. I'm not gonna write this guy off completely because he's proven us wrong before. But I would say the best golf of Kepka's career is behind him, though I think he's a good example. I do think he'd get his mojo back just coming back to the PGA Tour and playing with those guys. I bet it's really really difficult for him. I mean, he's always been a bright light guy, and now he's playing in tournaments that truly don't matter at all. It's just completely irrelevant, you know. I think Nieman, I think all these guys are gonna end up playing with each other again. I don't know how. I have no clue how this whole thing is gonna work, but I do think liv is coming down the home stretch. And I do think the PGA Tour with Tiger, he was just the White House, you know. Now he's banging Trump's Donald Junior's ex wife, Like this is Live's done. I think Live is in. I don't know exactly the details, but I know he's been over there with the Sadi's. It wouldn't shock me at all if you just get like Live is just dead, you know, and everyone from the on the list go back to the PGA Tour just curious on some bucket lick list courses you would love to play can be private or public, but don't include the cliche Cypress, Pine Valley, Augusta. I would love to play golf in the South. Any of the courses in Florida, you know Tpczawgrass Obviously that's probably a little cliche, but any cool courses in Florida. I'm down the Myrtle beat Stretch, like where they play where JT just won at Harbortown, Like, I would love to play golf there. I would love to just play golf in the South. I've never played down there. I never have a bad time if you invite me, or I have the opportunity to play a nice country club, whether it's famous or not. I that's a bucket list moment to say I played club X. I always think that's really really cool. So like I've been invited to play you know, different courses around here, like Mesa Country Club, the Phoenix Country Club, Arizona Country Club, and I like really generally have a great time whether I shoot seventy seven or eighty eight, just like this is cool, Like it's a big deal to me. I really enjoy playing different courses. So yeah, I mean my bucket list is to play anywhere cool. You know, I do not discriminate when it comes to golf. If you tell me it's the sun's out, it's good weather, and it's ideally, you know, like a Thursday, Friday, Saturday, so I don't have as much on my plate, not football season, so I can just enjoy life. We're having a few transfusions. I'm game. I'm not a I'm not a golf snob in the sense of like, obviously I wouldn't turn down Augusta. But if like you have like my brothers at like a working class country club that costs five thousand dollars to join, and whenever I play there with him and his buddies, my buddies like, it's I have a fucking blast. What is the best stretch a golfer has had in recent memory? Has anyone ever won all four majors in one year? Scotty's twenty four has to be up there. I think it would probably be Jordan's like fifteen and sixteen. You know, I think Jordan Speith. Uh. I think Speth won multiple majors in a year and then won the Masters, so Speeth, it would probably be this little stretch in twenty fifteen, Speith won the Masters, he won the US Open, he finished fourth at the Open, and he finished second at the PGA. And then the next year he probably should have won the Masters, and he imploded and he finished second. Then he won the Open a couple and then a year later. So I would say like that fifteen, the fifteen to the Masters in twenty sixteen stretch for Jordan. It's probably the best start to finish when you win multiple majors. I do feel like Scott he's gonna win one more major this year and then Rory could win. You know. I think the British Opens in his hometown, so he's going to be a heavy favorite for that. A big fan. My buddies and I are looking into a golf trip. We have done Tahoe, Scottsdale, and this other course in Florida. We are talking about Pinehurst or Bandon Dunes. What would you what would be some of the top places you would recommend for a golf trip. I've been to Bandon Dunes. This was in twenty eighteen, so Sheep Ranch didn't exist, and we played Bandon Trails, we played Bandon Dunes and we played Old McDonald, so we missed on one of them. I thought it was incredible. I just haven't been backed for whatever reason. But I would go back in a heartbeat. At the member guest I was at two weeks ago. Actually, Guy Zekkis that we had played with probably a month before that, who was a swimmer at Notre Dame, who was a good guy. We were bullshitting over a beer and he was saying that he had just played. I was in the line to get a beer and he was walking by and he was saying how he just got back from Pinehurst and he was there for like a week and they played every course. They played like six of the Pinehurst courses and Tobacco Road, and he just said it was awesome. So like, I had never talked to any human being that's been to Bandon Dunes and didn't rave about it. Now, the wind can get pretty outrageous. The afternoon when we played was was a little much. But I would say I think one of those two would be a no brainer. The one thing I heard about Pinehurst is you got to be like a year ahead. You can't just do it like a month out, So it can be difficult to get times. But I would highly recommend Bannon Dunes as a Ping collector. I'm curious with living in Scottsdale, relatively close to Phoenix, is Ping a more popular brand there than other manufacturers? Also, how highly do you regard Ping? Uh Ah, It's tough to say, because you just kind of based on who you're playing with. PXG is also here, and I play with some guys that are all fully said it in PXG, So I feel like PXG has a pretty big presence here more than Ping. Now, I don't really pay it. I feel like most people have like Taylor Maids or titleists, So it doesn't feel like Ping's any bigger here than it would be when I lived in northern California, or if you live in Texas you go to a golf course, I think they're going to be the minority of people with clubs, And my guess would be that the Callaway and Taylor made are gonna have a pretty big stranglehold with most people. Will be my guess. But I guess to answer your question, I don't notice Ping more than more than I have other places, just because they're here. Okay, first off, how about the Thunder got a nice little win today beat the shit out of the nuggets. If there's one thing I took away from the PGA Championship, it's how much it sucks that we don't get Bryson, Scotty, Rom, Rory, etc. Battle it out more than four times a year. In an alternate universe. I wonder how many less wins Scotty would have had last year. I'm a big Scotty guy, and he's winning as I typed this, But for that sake of discussion, yeah, maybe one or two. I think clearly when he's been on he dominates now as you see, like if they're playing an easier course, could Rom or Bryson win for sure? But I don't think live really diminishes him as much as it would if these guys, like if it it wasn't for Bryson. You know, Scotty's beaten Xander, he's won two of the last four Majors, and he's beaten Rory, who won the Masters. So it's and honestly, besides Bryson, how many these live guys you know Rom coming to play today. It's not like these live guys there's like three of them every week in these or I mean in the majors that you gotta worry about. It's really just been Bryson, and for the first time in a while, rom So like, thank God for Bryson in terms of Live's credibility with these big tournaments, because he's fucking carrying them. I mean, Koepka's drinking, Miller lights, DJ's fishing run around Paulina. Phil's just old and not good anymore. And you know, Joakee Neeman, cute little story, solid little player. I mean, has no chance. Hatton's screaming f bombs at his club. I mean, it's really just Bryson. So I don't know. I don't think it would impact that much. But ultimately, hopefully his conversation can just die sooner or later we can get everyone back together and we can just play some real golf. But we'll end on that. Congrats to Scottie. Win's his third major and it's just on the top of the world.
