1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,879
Speaker 1: Welcome to the cut Line. We're breaking down the American Express.

2
00:00:02,879 --> 00:00:04,879
We're gonna give you some outright winners, some head to

3
00:00:04,919 --> 00:00:05,639
head matchups.

4
00:00:05,879 --> 00:00:07,639
Speaker 2: We're gonna go over some of our top.

5
00:00:07,559 --> 00:00:11,720
Speaker 1: Favorite finishes, some draft Kings lineups, and our one and dones.

6
00:00:11,759 --> 00:00:12,759
Speaker 2: Thank you every much for joining.

7
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,359
Speaker 1: I'm your host, Andy Lang, being joined as always by

8
00:00:15,359 --> 00:00:20,879
my golf betting expert Yan. So we're adding new segments

9
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,199
as we go on throughout the course of the season.

10
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,480
So this is one of my favorite. This goes back

11
00:00:26,519 --> 00:00:29,079
to my days when I did the podcast Yon we do.

12
00:00:29,359 --> 00:00:32,759
It's called Tails from the Courtesy Tent. It's an honor

13
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,520
of whenever guys spray the ball into courtesy tents and

14
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,880
they have to walk around and basically these are the

15
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,200
worst shots of the week and we get to poke

16
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:45,359
fun at professional golfers. We talked about fading Colin Mori Kawa,

17
00:00:45,399 --> 00:00:46,679
and he lived up to the hype.

18
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 2: Yan.

19
00:00:47,679 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: He flat out topped one coming out of a bunker,

20
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:57,159
not hit it fat, not like worm burner, into the

21
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,719
side of the complete top job that went seventy yards.

22
00:01:01,759 --> 00:01:04,239
This was a fairway wood that he barely got to

23
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,159
go seventy years And yeah, he missed the cut by one.

24
00:01:09,439 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 3: I mean, this is this is a shot that I

25
00:01:11,079 --> 00:01:14,040
would play like this is this is not bad like

26
00:01:15,719 --> 00:01:18,000
I mean, he didn't have it with the potter eiver,

27
00:01:18,239 --> 00:01:20,719
but when you have a guy with a pottery, you

28
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,040
need to be making better shots than this.

29
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 1: So yes, this man was once the best ball striker

30
00:01:28,359 --> 00:01:30,719
on the planet. Now he's just just warm burning it

31
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,519
into the ground. And then our boy Harry Hall, he

32
00:01:33,599 --> 00:01:36,799
did good for us. Jan Uh did his part in

33
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,959
the parlay. Was a good DFS player and everything. But

34
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,159
you can't hit a tree that's twenty feet in front

35
00:01:42,159 --> 00:01:42,879
of you.

36
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 2: Now when you're in contention.

37
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,359
Speaker 3: It's not like you can't see it, do you know

38
00:01:49,439 --> 00:01:52,000
what I mean, It's right in front of you. Bro.

39
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,159
Speaker 1: He wasn't even in like a forest or like a

40
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:56,799
hard shot.

41
00:01:56,879 --> 00:01:58,799
Speaker 2: This is a basic hit it to the right.

42
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 3: Two trees, two trees. Can't can't do it. And to

43
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,159
be fair, like he had a fantastic week for him

44
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,200
to play a shot like this.

45
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 2: It was.

46
00:02:09,759 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: It was quite funny and it just the dreaded sound,

47
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,199
the double thump, the ball comes off the club right

48
00:02:14,199 --> 00:02:17,840
into the wood of congratulations Colin Morikawa Harry Hall two

49
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,159
of the best golfers on the planet, even they can't

50
00:02:20,199 --> 00:02:23,319
avoid tales from the courtesy tent. All right, let's go

51
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,599
to the one and done for the American Express Week one.

52
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,520
I couldn't even get my guy to make it through

53
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,199
the cut, Jean, you got your your guy through Corey Connors,

54
00:02:32,199 --> 00:02:34,840
so you've got a positive uh week out of him.

55
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,080
In the best part, you don't have to worry about

56
00:02:36,159 --> 00:02:38,000
him for the rest of the year.

57
00:02:38,039 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 2: I'm so jealous.

58
00:02:39,159 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna let Corey Connors hang over my head

59
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:42,680
because I'm gonna pick him.

60
00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:44,759
Speaker 2: So you you did better than I did. Who do

61
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:45,439
you got this week?

62
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 3: I'm very interested to see where you use Corey Connor's though.

63
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,479
To be fair, that's that's gonna be a fun watch.

64
00:02:52,199 --> 00:02:57,479
Next week. I have gone with Daniel Berger, who had

65
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,960
two months off and came back with a tight sick flow.

66
00:03:00,039 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 2: Last week.

67
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 3: He had two point seven strokes gained putting, and this

68
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:10,240
is gonna be a putting contest. It was twenty first

69
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,039
in this last year and sort of just how I'm

70
00:03:12,039 --> 00:03:14,520
approaching one and done in this early season is on

71
00:03:15,319 --> 00:03:19,120
hoping for these top twenty five's top twenties without ever

72
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,599
using like a top ten guy, just keep shipping away

73
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,439
with it. So I'm taking Daniel Berger this week.

74
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the guy that I always struggle.

75
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,879
You can't figure out when to use him because he's

76
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,319
up and down. But that's Sam Burns. And you mentioned

77
00:03:33,319 --> 00:03:35,599
you and Iron on the same page. I just went

78
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,000
to who's the best putter over the last twelve months?

79
00:03:38,039 --> 00:03:41,000
Sam Burns, that's my guy. We're gonna get into the course. Preview,

80
00:03:41,439 --> 00:03:44,000
of course is preview. But I think this is a

81
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,360
good place where if there's a guy who can absolutely

82
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,840
go lights out with the putter, it's the guy that's

83
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,800
plus zero point ninety three strokes gained putting number one

84
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,439
in PGA over the last twelve months in this field.

85
00:03:55,479 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 2: So Sam Burns is gonna be mine.

86
00:03:58,319 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: And yeah, you are on the same page, So let's

87
00:04:00,599 --> 00:04:02,159
let's talk about this course here.

88
00:04:04,719 --> 00:04:07,759
Speaker 2: I I really don't like tournaments like this.

89
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:08,199
Speaker 1: Yah.

90
00:04:08,439 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 2: I can't stand the three different courses.

91
00:04:11,639 --> 00:04:14,439
Speaker 1: They don't have the shot link on on a couple

92
00:04:14,479 --> 00:04:19,279
of them, they don't have cameras.

93
00:04:16,879 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 2: The coverage is brutal.

94
00:04:18,879 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: So what they're gonna do is they're gonna play PGA

95
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:25,560
West Stadium course. PJ West Nicholas and Lakita Stadium course

96
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,199
is the toughest of the trio that's actually got some

97
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:34,199
defense to it, water deep bunkers. The Nicholas tournament course

98
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:39,439
just wide fair ways, really no trouble, and Lakita is

99
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,160
a putt putt course. It's just short's there's nothing to it.

100
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,519
And one of the things that I don't like is like,

101
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,879
if you don't just shred Lakita, you're you're kind of

102
00:04:50,959 --> 00:04:52,839
out of it. So it really you have to go

103
00:04:53,079 --> 00:04:56,920
really low on Lakina, and you can because the wire,

104
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:58,600
the weather looks perfect.

105
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,879
Speaker 2: There's basically no there's little to know, you know, when.

106
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,439
Speaker 1: This should be a minus twenty or lower. I mean,

107
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:09,360
my guess as they absolutely fly through this one. So

108
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,600
what do you what's your take on these these court

109
00:05:12,879 --> 00:05:16,160
these tournaments that use multiple courses in this one in particular.

110
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 3: So it's really strange, right because we've got the Scottish

111
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,839
one over here, and that's one of my favorite tournaments

112
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,480
of the year. This is one of my least favorite

113
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,439
tournaments of the year. Okay, I just I'm not a

114
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,040
fan of tournaments where you need to go twenty five

115
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:38,079
under to win, like like you're saying with Laquinta and

116
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:42,240
Nicklaus is first of all, they got no shot tracker.

117
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,920
That's an awful experience as a viewer. And their course

118
00:05:46,959 --> 00:05:51,759
is where fifty nines have happened. This just is not

119
00:05:51,879 --> 00:05:54,399
my tournament, like like you're saying, the stadium course is

120
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,120
vaguely interesting. They put in new greens last year and

121
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,160
that played a bit tougher, but even that is super manageable.

122
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:06,079
It's not a fan of this tournament, but waiting to

123
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:07,759
mate money on networkardless.

124
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: I will give you one decent thing that they've kind

125
00:06:11,639 --> 00:06:13,480
of started to get rid of as these pro ams,

126
00:06:14,639 --> 00:06:17,839
so you don't have golfers walking down the fairway, insider

127
00:06:17,879 --> 00:06:20,000
trading with the vice president of Charles Schwab.

128
00:06:20,439 --> 00:06:22,079
Speaker 2: You know Bill Murray.

129
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: Doing sand angels and one of the bunkers Ray Romano remember,

130
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,519
almost famously sculled one out of the bunker. We did

131
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,560
skull it and almost hit Jordan's speeth in the head

132
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,240
when Jordan Speith was trying to tee off. So at

133
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,439
least they've gotten rid of some of the stuff that

134
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,160
would give us five and a half hour rounds. But yeah,

135
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,920
if you're like jan and don't like low scoring. This

136
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:46,079
is not really not really the course for you. So

137
00:06:46,879 --> 00:06:51,199
but we we got much much better tournaments on the

138
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,639
horizon here. So let's take a look at total strokes gained.

139
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,879
We're just gonna kind of look a little bit at

140
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,360
the last twelve months. There's really no surprise is here

141
00:07:00,439 --> 00:07:05,560
except for one. I would think jan I had absolutely

142
00:07:06,319 --> 00:07:10,920
no idea that Sepstraka was this high up for total

143
00:07:10,959 --> 00:07:13,759
strokes gained last year. And obviously there's some guys not

144
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,319
playing but third in this field.

145
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 2: I would have never guessed. I would have absolutely never

146
00:07:18,319 --> 00:07:18,720
guessed that.

147
00:07:19,079 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: But the Scottie Scheffler run away last twelve months, Russell

148
00:07:22,519 --> 00:07:25,920
Henley second, then you got Straka, Ben Griffin can't Ley,

149
00:07:25,959 --> 00:07:27,879
I guess was a little bit of a of a surprise.

150
00:07:27,959 --> 00:07:29,360
I guess he kind of had a little bit of

151
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,639
a better year. Robert McIntyre proved me wrong last week.

152
00:07:32,639 --> 00:07:34,360
I thought he looked great. I didn't think that was

153
00:07:34,399 --> 00:07:34,879
a good course.

154
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:37,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, very good.

155
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: Alex Norn, that kind of comes as a little bit

156
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:41,959
of a surprise.

157
00:07:41,639 --> 00:07:43,519
Speaker 2: That he was the same as Matthew Fitzpatrick.

158
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: Would I would have guessed Fitzpatrick then kind of finished

159
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:51,120
out with Harris English Burns, Ludwick Obert, Jason Day, there's

160
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,439
our boy, Harry Hall and Seawou Kim. I don't know

161
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,720
how he's plus one point zero six total strokes game

162
00:07:57,759 --> 00:08:00,839
when the guy can't put minus zero point three putting

163
00:08:00,959 --> 00:08:04,560
is masked for work by sea woo to be.

164
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 2: That high up.

165
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: So those are the total strokes gain. And now we

166
00:08:10,639 --> 00:08:13,120
get to players that can trip you up. These are

167
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,399
players that I think people are gonna be betting on

168
00:08:15,639 --> 00:08:19,319
that they're putting in DFS lineups, and I'm here to

169
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,160
say I think they're gonna disappoint. Last week went one

170
00:08:22,199 --> 00:08:23,839
and two on this Mori Kyle was a good call.

171
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,959
McIntyre Matsuyama, those are two not bad calls.

172
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 2: And Yahn, I'm going straight to the top.

173
00:08:30,079 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 1: Scotti Scheffler is my number one golfer that I am

174
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,399
really really worried.

175
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 2: About this week.

176
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,799
Speaker 1: So here's why someone did a great breakdown of him

177
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,480
at the Ryder Cup and why he struggles at at

178
00:08:42,519 --> 00:08:44,759
the Ryder Cup. And they were saying that in a

179
00:08:44,879 --> 00:08:50,039
normal golf tournament, he gets four rounds to do the

180
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,759
same routine on the same holes, and it's just it's

181
00:08:53,799 --> 00:08:56,639
eighteen holes after eighteen holes off eighteen holes after eighteen

182
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,000
holes that heinus Caddy can get to know the course.

183
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,159
They get to know the holes, and it's just it's

184
00:09:02,279 --> 00:09:05,879
just a mental assault on the course. This guy was

185
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,559
making the case that he struggles when everything resets and

186
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,679
you start over, which is what happens at the Ryder Cup.

187
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:16,039
You're playing different partners, it's different strategies, and he can't

188
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,360
just say I'm gonna do the same thing over.

189
00:09:19,799 --> 00:09:23,159
Speaker 2: You know these you know all these four rounds. Well,

190
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:23,559
guess what.

191
00:09:24,039 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 1: Now we're playing multiple different courses. And I don't think

192
00:09:27,279 --> 00:09:31,120
it's a coincidence that he's finished seventeenth, eleventh, twenty fifth

193
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,919
and missed cut the last four times he's played here.

194
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,200
He can't like get into a groove here, and he

195
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,200
is hands down the number one priced golfer. I get it,

196
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:45,919
But fourteen two hundred in DFS, No way, I'm gonna

197
00:09:45,919 --> 00:09:48,000
get to why. How I think you might actually be

198
00:09:48,039 --> 00:09:50,600
able to fade him, But Scotti, Schefler's gonna be nowhere

199
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:51,799
near my betting slips.

200
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 2: What do you think about Scheffler this week?

201
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you one hundred percent. Like the one

202
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,320
time where I'm going to go against Scotty is in

203
00:09:59,360 --> 00:09:59,919
a pot and conto.

204
00:10:01,919 --> 00:10:06,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely, We move on to the next one.

205
00:10:06,799 --> 00:10:10,720
Patrick can't lay. I just I can't wrap my head

206
00:10:10,759 --> 00:10:12,639
around this guy. He's one of the big names near

207
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,120
the top, and I think he's gonna be a natural

208
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,080
pick for everyone because he's played good here fifth, but

209
00:10:19,159 --> 00:10:21,919
don't forget fifth place last year before that fifty second

210
00:10:22,039 --> 00:10:26,480
in twenty sixth. He's the weakest putter among these, you know,

211
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,519
top five guys off the tee. Play over the last

212
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:33,919
six months has been underwhelming, So I'm just not gonna

213
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,360
put Patrick can'tlay near my one and done's DFS or

214
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,240
anything like that. So uh thoughts on Patrick can't lay

215
00:10:40,279 --> 00:10:40,639
this week?

216
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:46,799
Speaker 3: You another top guy who I just think is going

217
00:10:46,879 --> 00:10:49,480
to struggle to separate himself from the rest of the field.

218
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,039
Speaker 1: Okay, sure with me on that one, and I am

219
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,080
gonna bring up Seawoo. Kim struggled to find success at

220
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,240
this event, finishing twenty second or worse in each of

221
00:10:58,240 --> 00:10:59,080
the last three years.

222
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 2: Putting major liability.

223
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,559
Speaker 1: We went over that it's it's just a putting contest

224
00:11:04,639 --> 00:11:07,320
and his course history isn't that good here fifty first,

225
00:11:07,519 --> 00:11:10,000
twenty fifth twenty second. He did finish eleventh last week.

226
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,600
That's why I think he's going to be on people's radars. Oh,

227
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,600
kind of an underpriced guy finished eleventh. But Seewoo Kim

228
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,279
not doing it for me. So Scotti Scheffler, Patrick Can'tley

229
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,879
and Seewu Kim are going to be some players that

230
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,000
I think can trip you up. All right, yeah, we

231
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,240
go to head to heads. I'll let you go first.

232
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:29,720
What's the head to head that you looked at? What

233
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:30,399
side you want?

234
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 3: A really simple one for me, it's Kurt Kitty Yama

235
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:38,799
over Tayler Pendriff. For me, Kitty Arma just has so

236
00:11:38,919 --> 00:11:43,600
many tools to absolutely destroy these weak courses. He is

237
00:11:43,639 --> 00:11:47,960
a fantastic tea to green player. Pendriff's approach numbers aren't

238
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,240
really any good and he does not have a good

239
00:11:51,320 --> 00:12:01,000
record in this competition. Another Kitty Yarma potting. I just

240
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,600
think it's the only way to play this one.

241
00:12:05,879 --> 00:12:09,039
Speaker 1: I am going to put some of my money where

242
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,200
my mouth is and I will take Ben Griffin plus

243
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,600
two sixty five over Scotty Scheffler. The last time these

244
00:12:16,639 --> 00:12:20,279
two played together here, Ben Griffin beat him.

245
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,039
Speaker 2: Ben Griffin was ninth. Scotty Scheffler was seventeenth.

246
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: This is of course Ben Griffin loves he's seventh and

247
00:12:26,519 --> 00:12:31,519
ninth the last couple of years. And I know Scheffler

248
00:12:31,519 --> 00:12:34,759
has this, you know, gigantic, you know total strokes, gained

249
00:12:34,799 --> 00:12:36,120
advantage over.

250
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:37,519
Speaker 2: Every over everybody.

251
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,759
Speaker 1: But you know it's the approach, but it's not necessarily

252
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,039
the putting. And like we said, if this turns into

253
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:47,480
a putting contest, lookout and plus two sixty I don't

254
00:12:47,519 --> 00:12:50,240
know when you're gonna want to take another tournament to

255
00:12:50,279 --> 00:12:53,639
fade Scotty Scheffler. Like you know, immediately I looked at

256
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:54,759
him and I was like, do we just go with

257
00:12:54,799 --> 00:12:56,879
the Scotti Scheffler top five every week? And I was like,

258
00:12:56,879 --> 00:12:59,639
oh not this tournament. I wouldn't even take him in

259
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,159
the in the top ten with his struggles here could

260
00:13:02,159 --> 00:13:05,279
be wrong. Whatever you're betting against Scotti Scheffler, you know

261
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,840
you're taking you're taking your money into your own hands.

262
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,639
But I think plus two sixty five on Ben Griffin,

263
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,080
who has looked really, really good. So Ben Griffin plus

264
00:13:15,159 --> 00:13:17,559
two sixty five over Scottiy Scheffer will be the head

265
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:21,120
to head I'm looking at all right, we are running

266
00:13:21,159 --> 00:13:23,279
a golf special and this is what we're gonna do

267
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,919
every week. So when we record this show, we're just

268
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:27,720
gonna make it really easy. And see, you get seven

269
00:13:27,799 --> 00:13:30,320
days of golf for just twenty five dollars. You get

270
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,720
all of our plays from the beginning of the tournament,

271
00:13:32,759 --> 00:13:35,519
pre tournament all the way through. We did really good

272
00:13:35,519 --> 00:13:37,440
with our daily bets, and so we want to make

273
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,159
sure you guys have everything. I'm gonna put my DFS

274
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,519
lineup in the write ups as well, so you get those.

275
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,720
We had a nice cash and draftking, so any of

276
00:13:44,759 --> 00:13:47,919
our top finishers, you're gonna get head to heads our

277
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,759
daily plays coming off a profitable week. Last week wasn't

278
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,200
hugely profitable. But anytime you can make a little bit

279
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,000
of money off the first tournament of the year, you're

280
00:13:55,039 --> 00:13:57,240
in really, really good shape. So seven days of golf,

281
00:13:57,279 --> 00:14:00,519
just twenty five dollars, all percentages aren't looted, and that

282
00:14:00,639 --> 00:14:03,919
gets you every single play for the American Express. Get

283
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,679
there at my page WT do buzz slash al.

284
00:14:09,519 --> 00:14:09,919
Speaker 2: Okay.

285
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 1: Top finishers, Yeah, and you can pick anything from top ten,

286
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,679
top twenty, top five, whatever market you want.

287
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 2: Give me your two who do you like?

288
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:23,879
Speaker 3: First one is Alex Norn top twenty at plus one forty.

289
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,399
He was last scene finishing second in the Hero World Challenge,

290
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,279
so he hasn't actually played for six weeks, and that's

291
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,399
my only concern is that he's just a bit rusty.

292
00:14:34,159 --> 00:14:36,840
But ultimately I'm getting one of the best putters on

293
00:14:36,919 --> 00:14:40,200
tour and an unreal course manager, and I really think

294
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:40,759
that helps.

295
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 2: This week, he's.

296
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 3: Ranked thirteenth from the world, like he's one of the

297
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,320
best players in this field. I think he contends I'm

298
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,519
going to be taking a small sprinkle on his outright,

299
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,240
but I think T twenty at plus one forty is

300
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:54,360
such a good price.

301
00:14:56,639 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 2: I have to agree.

302
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 1: He was one of the pleasant surprises and going over

303
00:15:00,279 --> 00:15:01,840
total strokes gain, what's your next one?

304
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:08,279
Speaker 3: My second one is Jacob Bridgeman top forty at plus

305
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,360
one twenty. This is sort of a bit of a

306
00:15:10,399 --> 00:15:12,200
case study of this guy, because this is a guy

307
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:13,799
that I'm going to be following for like the next

308
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:18,000
couple of years. He's only twenty six. He was fantastic

309
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,440
last year, so I'm sort of just sort of like

310
00:15:20,559 --> 00:15:22,399
expecting him to come into his prime and make a

311
00:15:22,399 --> 00:15:25,360
bit of a splash again this year. His approach and

312
00:15:25,399 --> 00:15:27,679
His putting is such a big asset and that's really

313
00:15:27,679 --> 00:15:30,600
suited to these courses. He was fantastic again last week

314
00:15:30,639 --> 00:15:34,120
with a tie four finish, strokes gained in every category,

315
00:15:34,159 --> 00:15:38,360
his iron plate was fantastic. I think he might be

316
00:15:38,399 --> 00:15:40,679
competitive this week in top forty. Gives you such a

317
00:15:40,679 --> 00:15:43,399
big margin of error and it's plus money. So Jacob

318
00:15:43,399 --> 00:15:44,480
Bridgeman top forty.

319
00:15:46,039 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 2: I did not look up Jacob Bridgman. He was not

320
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,840
on my Bingo card. Love to hear that. I will

321
00:15:50,879 --> 00:15:51,320
go with.

322
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,279
Speaker 1: I keep talking about Ben Griffin, but top twenty including

323
00:15:54,279 --> 00:15:56,759
ties at minus one fifteen for a guy who's finished

324
00:15:56,759 --> 00:15:59,639
top ten the last two years, he's shown he can

325
00:15:59,639 --> 00:16:01,559
do it on any course. He's shown he's not scared

326
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,960
going up against the big name. So Ben Griffin top twenty.

327
00:16:05,639 --> 00:16:08,080
Just be careful about too much Ben Griffin exposure. I'm

328
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,519
not I'm not betting on Ben Griffin in every single category,

329
00:16:11,559 --> 00:16:15,200
but when I'm looking at these numbers, I just can't.

330
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,039
I can't really believe the price. And then sticking with

331
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,200
that top twenty including ties, I am gonna go with

332
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,480
Matthew Fitzpatrick at plus one fifty. I really like what

333
00:16:25,559 --> 00:16:29,120
this guy has done. Yeah, there's you know, there was

334
00:16:29,159 --> 00:16:32,720
the hilarious story about how Matthew Fitzpatrick he couldn't drive

335
00:16:32,759 --> 00:16:34,399
the ball to start the season, what was it, two

336
00:16:34,399 --> 00:16:36,600
seasons ago, And it turns out they put weights in

337
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,120
his driver in the off season to help him, you know,

338
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,720
get stronger, and they just forgot to take him out.

339
00:16:41,759 --> 00:16:45,720
So he was playing with badly weighted drivers and immediately.

340
00:16:45,559 --> 00:16:46,279
Speaker 2: It got fixed.

341
00:16:46,279 --> 00:16:48,559
Speaker 1: But you know, you can't really point to a weakness

342
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,240
in this guy's game. He's you know, easily plus strokes

343
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,519
gain in every category, plus zero point four to two,

344
00:16:53,559 --> 00:16:57,600
putting around the green, solid approach, good off the tee.

345
00:16:57,919 --> 00:17:01,399
You know, no problems there. So Matthew fits. We've seen

346
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,840
him on TGL as well, so you know he's he's

347
00:17:03,879 --> 00:17:06,200
not rusty. He's coming in here with some at least

348
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,519
some swings under his belt. So plus one fifty. I

349
00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:10,640
like Matthew Fitzpatrick to have a pretty good year here.

350
00:17:10,759 --> 00:17:16,359
So all right, out right winners. Jean gets one, I

351
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,799
get one, and then we do draft kings darlings.

352
00:17:18,839 --> 00:17:20,759
Speaker 2: Yean, you mean outright winner.

353
00:17:21,839 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 3: I am going back to our boy Harry hall way Off.

354
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,359
I love this spot for him. I'm gonna be playing

355
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,519
him always. I'm playing him out right top twenty, top

356
00:17:30,559 --> 00:17:32,519
forty and make the cut, you name it, I am

357
00:17:32,559 --> 00:17:35,160
playing it. One of the best parts in the field.

358
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,880
If you give me a part in contest, I am

359
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:41,680
taking Harry and his consistency is his biggest asset, and

360
00:17:41,759 --> 00:17:45,119
I just think being consistent this week gets you really

361
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,759
really close. So back to our boy Harry all this week.

362
00:17:48,599 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: For me, yeah, I was scrolling down the list and

363
00:17:51,839 --> 00:17:56,000
ruling out Scheffler. I've got been Griffin in you know

364
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,799
too much. There's seem burns. So I'll take a little

365
00:18:00,079 --> 00:18:03,240
a little sprinkle on Ludvick Obert at plus twenty two hundred.

366
00:18:03,319 --> 00:18:06,759
When this guy's on, he's you know, he makes the

367
00:18:06,799 --> 00:18:09,279
case for being top three in the world. There was

368
00:18:09,319 --> 00:18:12,400
that really weird tournament where he got sick and he

369
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,480
I can't remember if he withdrew or if he just

370
00:18:15,559 --> 00:18:17,240
missed the cut, but he had a great first round

371
00:18:17,319 --> 00:18:19,759
and he got sick and he wasn't the same since.

372
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:21,839
But the last couple of times we've seen him, he

373
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,960
kind of looks like he's getting back to his to

374
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:28,440
his old self. So around the green not very good,

375
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,039
but that's about it if he can get that putter going.

376
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 2: We know he's going to be long.

377
00:18:32,799 --> 00:18:34,920
Speaker 1: We know he's going to be setting off some short

378
00:18:35,079 --> 00:18:38,319
iron shots on some of these courses, so he's going

379
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,839
to be licking his chops at these approaches coming in.

380
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,519
So ludvig Obert twenty two to one would be uh,

381
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,680
would be a guy that that I'm looking at and

382
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:47,799
I'm with you one hundred percent. Yeah, And I are

383
00:18:47,839 --> 00:18:51,359
like the two biggest Harry Hall fans of of like

384
00:18:51,599 --> 00:18:53,519
of two guys that host golf show like every week

385
00:18:53,559 --> 00:18:54,079
that he plays.

386
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 2: We're just gonna be like Harry Hall Harry Hall.

387
00:18:58,319 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 1: So just when when you watch the cut line, expect

388
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,400
your Hairy Hall content to be up there.

389
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,440
Speaker 2: So, okay, I mentioned on you guys last week.

390
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,160
Speaker 1: DraftKings was an incredible year for me last year, and

391
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,400
we did it again. We cashed in last week's tournament.

392
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,799
So here's just to let you guys know how I

393
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:23,720
play and my strategy. My strategy is I only play

394
00:19:23,759 --> 00:19:26,160
fifty fifties and I want a lot of people in

395
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:30,799
the in the contest because they call them fifty fifties

396
00:19:30,839 --> 00:19:35,200
their sixty forties. They pay out the top forty percent Okay,

397
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,880
So make no mistake, these fifty fifties ain't fifty fifties.

398
00:19:39,079 --> 00:19:40,680
So when I play these, what I want to do

399
00:19:41,839 --> 00:19:44,240
is I want to pick tournaments that have a lot

400
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,279
of people because you're gonna get well first, you're gonna

401
00:19:47,279 --> 00:19:47,759
get some people that.

402
00:19:47,799 --> 00:19:48,880
Speaker 2: Just forget to settle lineup.

403
00:19:49,079 --> 00:19:52,759
Speaker 1: You're also gonna get people that probably don't don't play

404
00:19:52,759 --> 00:19:54,559
it nearly as much as I do. And here's the

405
00:19:54,599 --> 00:19:58,079
other sneaky thing. Don't don't spread this. Keep this between us.

406
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:00,799
If you want to play for two hundred dollars, don't

407
00:20:00,799 --> 00:20:03,319
play in a two hundred dollars tournament playing four fifty

408
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:07,920
dollars ones you want the If you're playing for two

409
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,039
hundred dollars, you probably know the sport as well as

410
00:20:10,079 --> 00:20:12,359
I do. If you're playing for fifty dollars, I think

411
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,200
I got a little bit of an edge. So that's

412
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,039
what I do, yan is I split up. It may

413
00:20:18,079 --> 00:20:20,200
sound dirty, but I'm not a bot. I go in

414
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,160
there and I put my I put my uh my

415
00:20:23,279 --> 00:20:24,319
plays in myself.

416
00:20:24,319 --> 00:20:26,279
Speaker 2: But that is how I play DFS.

417
00:20:26,279 --> 00:20:29,039
Speaker 1: And we had a really really nice cash finishing eighty

418
00:20:29,039 --> 00:20:31,200
eighth out of like two hundred and forty. So let's

419
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,960
go to the DraftKings darlings here. I am going to

420
00:20:35,079 --> 00:20:39,279
start with Lee Hodges. And Lee Hodges was an absolutely

421
00:20:39,319 --> 00:20:41,759
fantastic darling last year for US.

422
00:20:41,759 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 2: He's at sixty seven hundred. Uh six. Did you know

423
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:46,079
he finished sixth last week?

424
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,640
Speaker 3: Yan definitely slip on the line right now.

425
00:20:50,079 --> 00:20:52,039
Speaker 2: We did. Did we see a shot of him?

426
00:20:52,599 --> 00:20:54,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, Lee Hodges coming up with six plays finish.

427
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,839
Underlying stats back it up, putted lights out. He ranked

428
00:20:58,839 --> 00:21:02,400
twentieth in greens and regulation, was number one in sand

429
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,039
saves and scrambling. He finished thirty fourth year last year.

430
00:21:06,559 --> 00:21:10,079
That's solid enough for a course fit, a tournament fit.

431
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,039
So at the price sixty seven hundred, Lee Hodges is

432
00:21:13,079 --> 00:21:14,640
going to be the anchor there.

433
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:16,920
Speaker 2: Kevin Roy, we did see him.

434
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,039
Speaker 1: He's at seventy one hundred, continues to check all the

435
00:21:19,079 --> 00:21:22,839
right boxes for DFS value, thirteenth place finish where he ranked.

436
00:21:22,599 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 2: Fifth, and putting. Talk about a putting contest.

437
00:21:25,039 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 1: I'll take the guy that's lights out putting last week,

438
00:21:27,519 --> 00:21:30,480
seventh round the green, really good touch when it mattered

439
00:21:30,519 --> 00:21:33,880
the most. Driving accuracy isn't elite, but you don't really

440
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,200
need that on this course. There's not too many devastating

441
00:21:37,599 --> 00:21:40,519
you know, like penalty areas and such. So Kevin Roy

442
00:21:40,599 --> 00:21:44,400
at seventy one hundred, and hey, out of it, ain't broke,

443
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,680
don't fix it. John Perry seventy one hundred, same price

444
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,640
as last week. He came through us with a strong

445
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,400
nineteenth place finish. Going right back to him, he was

446
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,680
eighth and putting fifth in greens in regulation, fourteenth in

447
00:21:55,799 --> 00:21:58,480
driving accuracy. That's the balance that you like in a

448
00:21:58,559 --> 00:22:01,480
draft Kings Darling. So again, and just get me points

449
00:22:01,519 --> 00:22:04,799
on the weekend and you're going to cash. So and

450
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:08,279
it was it's always funny, Yoahn, when like one guy

451
00:22:08,319 --> 00:22:10,119
in your lineup missus the cut, and it's not the

452
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,079
DraftKings Darling.

453
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:12,599
Speaker 2: It's like the more expensive guy.

454
00:22:13,279 --> 00:22:15,839
Speaker 1: But if you can nail those draft Kings Darlings, you

455
00:22:15,839 --> 00:22:17,960
will do very very well in DFS.

456
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 2: So once again the article.
