00:00:01,879 --> 00:00:05,440
Speaker 1: The twenty twenty five John Deer Classic is here. Welcome

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,519
everyone to tea time. I am your host, Andy Lang,

3
00:00:07,559 --> 00:00:10,160
being joined as always by my fellow golf betting expert

4
00:00:10,279 --> 00:00:13,679
Nick Borman. We're gonna break down TBC Deer run the course.

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,239
We're gonna go over some players that can trip you up,

6
00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:18,920
some DraftKings, darlings. Nick is gonna break down the total

7
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,679
strokes gain in the top ten in this field. We're

8
00:00:21,719 --> 00:00:25,519
also gonna talk about a favorite favorite and a long shot.

9
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,079
But as we always do, Nick, we do our one

10
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,480
and done to get the show started, and it is

11
00:00:30,719 --> 00:00:33,719
neck and neck like we are like we've in like

12
00:00:33,719 --> 00:00:37,920
like twenty thousand dollars of each other. So well, how

13
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:39,960
it works as we pick one and done, we can

14
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:41,719
only pick that person once a year until we get

15
00:00:41,719 --> 00:00:44,479
to the playoffs and then we get their prize money

16
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,719
and literally like we are within just like a few

17
00:00:47,759 --> 00:00:51,240
thousand of each other. So these are the weeks that

18
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:52,840
I feel like kind of make or break it because

19
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,439
you're gonna have to pick some guys that are a

20
00:00:54,439 --> 00:00:56,840
little bit off the radar. I'll go first. I'll go

21
00:00:57,119 --> 00:01:02,200
Michael thorpe Jornson. He's been really really good this entire season.

22
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,040
To be honest, he's coming up off he took a break,

23
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,599
he didn't play for like five weeks, comes back and

24
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,000
finished fourth last week. He was a runner up here

25
00:01:10,079 --> 00:01:13,560
last year and seventeenth before that, so I can't ignore

26
00:01:13,719 --> 00:01:17,400
those numbers. Really really good off the tee. His putting

27
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,920
isn't amazing, but in this field, you're good, you're You're

28
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:22,680
gonna have to pick somebody that's got a little bit

29
00:01:22,719 --> 00:01:27,400
of a whole our game. Yeah, so yeah, yeah, So

30
00:01:27,439 --> 00:01:30,000
the runner up last year, the fourth place last year,

31
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,239
the good for him this entire year makes him might

32
00:01:32,239 --> 00:01:33,159
pick who are you going with?

33
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 2: Well?

34
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 3: Last week I went with Kegan, but then I hemmed

35
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,599
in hot and I said, really, I kind of wanted

36
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,079
to do Harry Hall. Well, Harry Hall was the better play,

37
00:01:41,519 --> 00:01:43,680
so I kicked myself there. I'm probably gonna do the same.

38
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,319
I'm gonna go with Jenny McCarthy and I'll go into

39
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,879
deeper dive on him later. Intent But my alternative for

40
00:01:51,959 --> 00:01:54,239
those that want another option, if you already us DMC,

41
00:01:54,239 --> 00:01:56,280
I don't know why you use TMAC in case he did.

42
00:01:56,799 --> 00:01:59,920
Lucas Glover good history here kind of kind of thrive

43
00:02:00,159 --> 00:02:02,239
on this type of course, so he'd be the other guy.

44
00:02:02,239 --> 00:02:04,680
But Danny McCarthy is my guy. I'm gonna get into

45
00:02:04,719 --> 00:02:06,359
him a little bit later as to why I love

46
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:06,959
it so much.

47
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 1: All right, love it, love it, agree with it as well.

48
00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:14,439
So let's get into the course here, and we are

49
00:02:14,479 --> 00:02:18,680
talking TPC deer run. Cut to the chase. It's pretty

50
00:02:18,719 --> 00:02:23,319
easy par seventy one, just over seventy two fifty yards.

51
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,719
They got pretty wide fairways. The weather's gonna make these

52
00:02:26,759 --> 00:02:30,719
greens really, really receptive. Even as of now we're recording

53
00:02:30,719 --> 00:02:32,319
this Tuesday morning. There's even gonna be a little bit

54
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,199
rained Saturday night overnight, so it's like, oh now they're

55
00:02:35,199 --> 00:02:38,439
gonna get even more receptive greens on Sunday. And as

56
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,280
as just Thavas has always told us, you give us

57
00:02:41,319 --> 00:02:44,199
receptive greens, we're gonna tear it up. So this is

58
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,199
a place where you gotta go low, like it's just

59
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,840
a requirement. Even even to make the cut, you're gonna

60
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:55,759
have to have really really good scoring, so reachable par

61
00:02:55,879 --> 00:02:58,479
five and the seventeenth that sets it up for a

62
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,120
really nice eighteenth hole run. And I just think it's

63
00:03:02,159 --> 00:03:05,000
a layout where there's really not much testing these guys.

64
00:03:05,039 --> 00:03:08,360
There there are trees, They're not the most difficult trees

65
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,240
in the world. It's not like you're gonna be hitting

66
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,439
into forests. And you know, the other thing is with

67
00:03:13,319 --> 00:03:17,800
these soft fairways, the runoff Like you know, super dry course,

68
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,360
you may hit a fairway, but it may run off

69
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,280
into the rough. It's not the case with these fairways.

70
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,000
So I don't think these guys are gonna have any

71
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,560
problems putting it out into the fairway. And then it

72
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,080
comes down to getting a hot putter. So the greens,

73
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,400
they're receptive, they're not huge. There's a couple of them

74
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,599
that are pretty good. They do have some good elevation changes.

75
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,520
There's water like you know, eighteenth features water. There's some

76
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,719
pretty cool views of rivers around. But there's really not

77
00:03:44,919 --> 00:03:47,199
one type of player it favors. I think just in

78
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,039
the end, and I know this sounds pretty obvious, but

79
00:03:50,199 --> 00:03:54,360
Nick hottest putter is gonna be the one, And we

80
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,360
talk about this. This is the kind of This is

81
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,319
the kind of course and tournament where someone out of

82
00:03:58,319 --> 00:04:00,560
nowhere it's hot with the putter over war rounds and

83
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,840
all of a sudden, oh, there's someone at eighty to one,

84
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,199
winning the tournament. So what's your take on TPC Deer Run.

85
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,319
Speaker 3: Not much, I mean literally the eseiest way to describe it.

86
00:04:10,319 --> 00:04:12,759
It's just it's an extension from last week. You know,

87
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,400
it's gonna be the same tournament, it's gonna be the

88
00:04:14,439 --> 00:04:17,879
same type of scoring. There's really no trouble off the tee.

89
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,439
There's no trouble. I mean, the rough is up at

90
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,079
the tallest point, up to four inches, but again, like

91
00:04:22,079 --> 00:04:25,600
we saw last week, it was too and it's not thick.

92
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,959
So most of the time they're hitting the rough, they're

93
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,279
they're staying kind of fluffed up a bit. They're not

94
00:04:31,319 --> 00:04:33,079
really going to the bottom and they're not like settling

95
00:04:33,079 --> 00:04:35,839
into a thick area. Occasionally you'll get the bad lie

96
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,759
in the rough, which you know will happen, but over

97
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,399
the course of the tournament, it's not nothing there. And

98
00:04:40,639 --> 00:04:43,319
as is most weeks, hitting greens and making putts is

99
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,000
good win the tournament. Well, there's not a huge disparity

100
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,319
between a lot of these players on hitting greens. There's

101
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,680
not anybody that's like eye poppingly good or at least

102
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,600
that much better than the rest of the field.

103
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,439
Speaker 2: Putting, though, there are some guys that can really roll

104
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:56,519
the rock, and.

105
00:04:56,439 --> 00:04:57,959
Speaker 3: You have to shoot though, I mean, you're gonna have

106
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,680
to average, you know, six hundred par likely every round

107
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,680
to win this thing. Twenty five we gets you to

108
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,519
twenty four hundred, which is a common winning score here.

109
00:05:05,519 --> 00:05:08,639
Twenty eight was last year with Davis Thompson. So now

110
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,639
I think it's an extentrament last week. Whatever you did.

111
00:05:10,639 --> 00:05:13,319
If you had success last week in your bets and

112
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,560
you were targeting certain types of players, it's probably going

113
00:05:15,639 --> 00:05:18,160
to work again the same way. If for whatever reason

114
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,639
you had no successful then one eighty to that and

115
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,560
that should give you success. This week is exactly the

116
00:05:23,639 --> 00:05:27,519
same as last week. The greens pretty much average for

117
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,839
pjh or size fifty five hundred. So again, nothing nothing

118
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,800
here that's tricky. So I expect this to be, like

119
00:05:34,079 --> 00:05:36,639
you said, blow scoring. Weather doesn't look to be an issue.

120
00:05:36,639 --> 00:05:38,560
It looks if anything, that's helping the scoring, because it

121
00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:41,560
might be a little thunderstorm action over the weekend, but

122
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:46,519
otherwise pretty seasonal and fourth of July, you know, probably

123
00:05:46,519 --> 00:05:49,439
doesn't get a lot of a TV coverage, but probably

124
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:51,000
we'll be watching.

125
00:05:51,759 --> 00:05:55,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know listen that this course

126
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,759
is not really my house, but it's in the same,

127
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,000
you know, area of the country. We've got a stunning

128
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,519
amount of rain man around here. Like I got up

129
00:06:03,519 --> 00:06:07,639
this morning, it's everything's soaked, Like we've never had this

130
00:06:07,759 --> 00:06:10,480
much rain in this area. You know, normally it's rought

131
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,920
drought instead of grass is you know, a mile high.

132
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:18,000
So it's uncharacteristically wet around here for this kind of year.

133
00:06:18,079 --> 00:06:20,600
So all right, real quick, let's do my favorite hole

134
00:06:20,639 --> 00:06:23,439
on this course. I chose the fourth hole, four hundred

135
00:06:23,439 --> 00:06:25,920
and fifty five yard par four. There's not a lot

136
00:06:25,959 --> 00:06:27,959
of holes on this course that really stand out, but

137
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,680
you know me, nick, I love a good random obstacle

138
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,560
in the middle of a hole. This just has a

139
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,920
gigantic tree splitting the fairway. You're gonna want to be

140
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:38,839
to the right of the tree to have a much

141
00:06:38,879 --> 00:06:41,959
closer approach into the dog leg right. The green does

142
00:06:41,959 --> 00:06:44,000
have some pretty steep bunkers on the left that's got

143
00:06:44,079 --> 00:06:46,439
runoff on the right, so your approach is gonna need

144
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,879
to be accurate. You have to be careful not to

145
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,519
get around this big tree. They should be able to

146
00:06:52,519 --> 00:06:55,759
get past it, but if you get under it, where

147
00:06:55,759 --> 00:06:59,319
the branches are screwing up your approach. You accidentally hit it, Yeah,

148
00:06:59,439 --> 00:07:01,639
you can, you give yourself a little bit of problem.

149
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,680
So I just love I love holes where it's very

150
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,600
Putt Putt course esque, where there's just a random obstacle

151
00:07:08,639 --> 00:07:11,279
in the middle of the fairway. The eighteenth hole rating

152
00:07:11,399 --> 00:07:14,160
nothing too special about this hole. It's a four point three.

153
00:07:14,319 --> 00:07:16,600
Like the rest of the course, it's just not very difficult.

154
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,199
Fairway bends are the right, there is a big fairway

155
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,519
bunker on the left. There's trees on the right, so

156
00:07:22,079 --> 00:07:25,040
accuracy does need to be there in the fairway. It's

157
00:07:25,079 --> 00:07:27,439
a fairly easy approach. There is water on the left,

158
00:07:27,839 --> 00:07:30,079
so I'm just expecting the right side of this green

159
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,920
to get most of the shots. Not a very dramatic hole,

160
00:07:32,959 --> 00:07:35,160
but the element of water next to it makes it

161
00:07:35,199 --> 00:07:37,800
a little little bit interesting. But this hole just kind

162
00:07:37,839 --> 00:07:39,319
of blends in with the rest of the course. I

163
00:07:39,319 --> 00:07:41,680
don't expect a lot of drama on this one. You'll

164
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,680
maybe see a few balls in the water on eighteen,

165
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,839
but nothing that's gonna nothing that's gonna affect the leaders

166
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,560
in my opinion. So let's take a look at the

167
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,439
total strokes game. While we're doing that, if you guys

168
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,240
could please do us a favor and hit the like

169
00:07:53,279 --> 00:07:55,240
button and leave us a comment. You know, we go

170
00:07:55,279 --> 00:07:57,319
in and read all the comments, and you guys have

171
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,519
been absolutely crushing the comment section this year. So interested

172
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,079
to see who you guys have picked for winners. Give

173
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,319
me some props, give me some outrights, give me some

174
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,000
long shots. It's a really really good field to try

175
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,000
that in. So let's take a look at total strokes gained.

176
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,879
Nick in, I love this graphic in these tournaments because

177
00:08:16,199 --> 00:08:18,199
you're seeing a lot of names that we wouldn't normally

178
00:08:18,199 --> 00:08:21,240
talk about. So let's say a look here and what

179
00:08:21,319 --> 00:08:25,079
can we decipher from I mean, Michael Kim makes an appearance,

180
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:30,399
Holy Blood Cawley, Ryan Girard. Alright, talk us through these

181
00:08:30,399 --> 00:08:31,600
What are your takeaways?

182
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 3: Quite a quite a different to take here on these

183
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,600
on these player names than we're used to see it.

184
00:08:36,639 --> 00:08:38,480
And it's always fun because I have to adjust my

185
00:08:38,519 --> 00:08:43,120
color conditional coloring here for these type of screens, because

186
00:08:43,159 --> 00:08:45,279
you know, the strokes gained when sky Scheffer's at over

187
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,360
three as the leader versus when the leaders that just

188
00:08:48,399 --> 00:08:50,759
barely over one. It required a little different, a little

189
00:08:50,759 --> 00:08:54,440
different shading on this Yes, on this graphic, but the

190
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,679
fact that Jason Day is number one or the last

191
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,000
twelve months kind of tells you where we're at with

192
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,840
this field. Ben Griffin clearly the hottest player and that

193
00:09:01,919 --> 00:09:05,120
shows in the shorter term three month stroke game numbers

194
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,679
there over on the right hand column. But surprising names

195
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,039
not really, I mean, this is kind of who you'd

196
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,759
expect to be in the better players in this field.

197
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,399
Sungai Am is a guy that just you know, we've

198
00:09:16,399 --> 00:09:19,120
always talked about for years, consistency, consistency, consistency, But you

199
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,679
can see here in this graphic the six month and

200
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,120
three month trends are going the wrong way. Same with

201
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,399
Luke Clanton who turned professional officially, so he's just trying

202
00:09:28,399 --> 00:09:30,159
to get his feet are going to get under his

203
00:09:30,159 --> 00:09:32,639
feet under him, I guess he could say. And Lucas

204
00:09:32,639 --> 00:09:34,919
Glover I mentioned earlier, it's kind of same thing. He's

205
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,039
trending the wrong way right now, but very good course

206
00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:40,919
history here. David Thompson's getting a play this week because

207
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,519
he's a defending chant, but really from what you see

208
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,919
in this graphic, he probably wouldn't be taking him because

209
00:09:45,919 --> 00:09:48,919
he's trending the wrong way However, in this field, sometimes

210
00:09:48,919 --> 00:09:50,679
those trends don't really matter what you're doing if you're

211
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,039
going the wrong way, because all it takes is one

212
00:09:53,039 --> 00:09:54,519
of the week, and it's not in the field is

213
00:09:54,759 --> 00:09:58,120
consistently going to be making cuts or consistently going to

214
00:09:58,159 --> 00:09:59,120
be finished out twenties.

215
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 2: With these guys, anybody can have a bad week just

216
00:10:01,759 --> 00:10:03,440
as easy as anybody can have a good week.

217
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,519
Speaker 3: But Postings a one that's had a lot of success here,

218
00:10:07,879 --> 00:10:09,799
he's playing pretty well right at the moment, one of

219
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,360
the better ones in the field. The guys down at

220
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,879
the bottom, I added in, because they're more of the

221
00:10:13,919 --> 00:10:16,440
guys playing the best in the last three or six months.

222
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:22,120
You already mentioned the bottom player there, thorpe Jornson, thorpe Jornson,

223
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,879
thorpe Jornson. I just want to make sure I have

224
00:10:25,879 --> 00:10:26,919
to say say that correctly.

225
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 2: Mikey very very good.

226
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: Let's go with Mikey t.

227
00:10:35,039 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 3: Playing very good over the short short stand. And Gerard

228
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:39,879
was a guy that's like, if you're not paying attention,

229
00:10:39,919 --> 00:10:40,320
you're not.

230
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 2: Never going to know his name.

231
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 3: But he's sneakily being pretty consistent and in this field

232
00:10:44,879 --> 00:10:47,600
kind of leaps and bounds above most of the guys here.

233
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,320
Same with Bud Colly, who's made a return the last

234
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,519
year and a half from like a three year it

235
00:10:52,639 --> 00:10:54,240
is with injuries, so it's good to see him back

236
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:54,519
in there.

237
00:10:54,519 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 2: But listen, don't be stuck in this graphic. I usually always,

238
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,840
you know, mention how important it is to stick to

239
00:11:01,879 --> 00:11:03,519
this graphic and the signatures and the majors.

240
00:11:03,519 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 3: But in this type of field, this graphic doesn't matter.

241
00:11:06,519 --> 00:11:10,320
I also mentioned last week that twenty four of the

242
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,639
twenty five tournaments this year, excluding the three alternate fields,

243
00:11:13,639 --> 00:11:15,759
have been won by somebody in the top twenty five

244
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,919
in strokes game last twelve six or three months. Last week,

245
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,879
pot Geter was not in that, so he's twenty four

246
00:11:23,879 --> 00:11:25,919
of twenty six. So if you're gonna venture down from

247
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,720
this list, it's usually still the next year that wins,

248
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:31,440
so it's not too far down.

249
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 2: But you can certainly throw some darts this week and

250
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:35,600
take some long shot.

251
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:41,799
Speaker 1: Guys, love it, love it. Let's jump into players that

252
00:11:41,879 --> 00:11:44,639
can trip you up. And this was one of the

253
00:11:44,759 --> 00:11:49,120
toughest ones because I'm trying to figure out who is

254
00:11:49,159 --> 00:11:52,960
everyone going to pick this week, So we're just gonna

255
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:56,159
start with Chris got her Up, which I'm sure Chris

256
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,080
got her up never expected to be in this category.

257
00:11:59,159 --> 00:12:01,720
But he's being priced like a contender this week, and

258
00:12:01,759 --> 00:12:03,399
I get it, Nick, You're gonna have to put some

259
00:12:03,519 --> 00:12:06,759
of these guys in contention. But the results don't back

260
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,279
it up here. Despite the short odds, he has not

261
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,039
posted a single top ten all year, missed the cut

262
00:12:12,039 --> 00:12:15,799
here last year twenty twenty four, putting massive, massive concern

263
00:12:15,919 --> 00:12:19,039
minus zero point four to seven strokes gained over the

264
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,399
last thirty days. That is not gonna get it done

265
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,759
on a birdie friendly layout where you have to have

266
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:25,960
a hot potter. So I think he is a fade

267
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,120
at this number. I'm not putting him in dfs. I'm

268
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,960
certainly not putting him in head to heads where he's

269
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,200
matched up against these higher priced guys. So Chris got

270
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,919
Her Up is priced way too high for me. Davis Thompson,

271
00:12:37,279 --> 00:12:41,120
last year's winner. Don't let that distract you. He's not

272
00:12:41,159 --> 00:12:43,799
been very good in twenty twenty four. Hasn't finished better

273
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,600
than tenth all season. Potter ice cold, losing minus zero

274
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,759
point three to nine strokes over the last six months. Again,

275
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:52,960
bad potter on a course where you have to go

276
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,440
low on the greens course. History alone is not enough

277
00:12:56,799 --> 00:12:59,519
to justify me backing him. In fact, I think he's overpriced.

278
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,600
To fade him if I get a good head to

279
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,080
head match up with him, and then we'll go with

280
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:09,519
Pearsonson Coody as being priced like a contender. But I

281
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,960
just don't think he's shown enough at the PGA Tour level.

282
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,200
He's had really really good strong results on the corn Ferry.

283
00:13:15,919 --> 00:13:18,879
Is just one finish better than twenty fifth in seven

284
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,399
PGA Tour starts this year. He finished thirtieth last year.

285
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,879
Again a week field. It's solid, but it's not enough

286
00:13:25,879 --> 00:13:29,120
to justify a really good performance here. So weak field

287
00:13:29,159 --> 00:13:33,039
betters may we may be chasing upside. This price tag

288
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,360
to me doesn't give me value on the upside. So

289
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,799
Chris goddr Up, Davis Thompson and Pierces and Cooty, I

290
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,440
think these are guys that are a little bit overpriced

291
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,840
this week. All right, Nick, let's take a look at

292
00:13:44,919 --> 00:13:47,159
your favorite favorite. Before you do that, tell her and

293
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:48,759
what you have upper clients at wager talk.

294
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 3: Sure, right now we have the well not the finals,

295
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,440
but the end of the FIFA Club World Cup. We

296
00:13:56,519 --> 00:13:59,639
got some matches going on today Tuesday, and the semi

297
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,200
final of the Gold Cup, which is the USA in

298
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:03,519
Mexico basically.

299
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,879
Speaker 2: Tournament going on. Both of those are nearing their end.

300
00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 3: We got a little bit of time left, but have

301
00:14:07,759 --> 00:14:10,159
plays up for those over the next week and then

302
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,799
MLS still in full action weekend car will be up

303
00:14:14,159 --> 00:14:16,000
later this week and that's really all that's going on

304
00:14:16,039 --> 00:14:18,799
for me right now. During the summer. Of course, John

305
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,879
Deere Classic pack isn't up and available as well. We

306
00:14:21,919 --> 00:14:24,879
did give out pot Geeter after round one last week

307
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,200
nine to one. It wasn't the sexy one hundred and one,

308
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,480
but I was never gonna say ahead of the tournament,

309
00:14:29,799 --> 00:14:31,600
but after watching that first round, I was like, you

310
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,960
know what, where it's worth something, So hopefully we can

311
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:35,799
do the same here.

312
00:14:36,159 --> 00:14:38,639
Speaker 2: I'm trying to track Andy this year. A lot of the.

313
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 3: I guess like mid tournament type of data, you know,

314
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,960
what does what does the winner look like after round

315
00:14:46,039 --> 00:14:48,840
one and round two? Right to try to pinpoint where

316
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:50,559
you can get those live winners.

317
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,279
Speaker 2: And so far, so good. Obviously last week was a

318
00:14:53,279 --> 00:14:53,799
good winner.

319
00:14:54,279 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 3: But just gathering a lot of data so that I

320
00:14:56,279 --> 00:14:58,399
can attack these type of tournaments, because let's be honest,

321
00:14:58,440 --> 00:14:59,039
these ones are.

322
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,159
Speaker 2: Crap shoots, right, It's hard to pick a guy to

323
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:02,480
win this thing. Could be anybody.

324
00:15:02,559 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 3: But after round one or two, yeah, your odds are

325
00:15:05,039 --> 00:15:06,720
not nearly as good. But if you get nine to one,

326
00:15:06,759 --> 00:15:09,399
ten to one, twelve to one on a potential winner

327
00:15:09,399 --> 00:15:11,000
at this type of tournament, I think it's great. So

328
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,000
hopefully we'll have some success as we go forward with

329
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:15,320
those type of plays.

330
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 1: Love it, love it. Let's talk your favorite favorite who

331
00:15:18,759 --> 00:15:21,440
near the top of the odds list. Have you pegged

332
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:21,840
this week?

333
00:15:22,399 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mentioned before it's d Mac. I mean, I

334
00:15:26,519 --> 00:15:28,559
don't think you have to go dive too deep to know.

335
00:15:29,399 --> 00:15:33,360
His recent success here is fantastic. Three straight top seven

336
00:15:33,759 --> 00:15:37,120
finishes at TPC Seed Deer Run, So you know that

337
00:15:37,159 --> 00:15:38,759
could blow up in our face and all of a sudden,

338
00:15:38,799 --> 00:15:41,320
a big miscut. But certainly he's going to have confidence

339
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,799
around here, and it does feel like, you know, a

340
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,120
win at this place is just a matter of win.

341
00:15:46,639 --> 00:15:50,000
But he really makes sense as far as his player profile.

342
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,519
You have to make berdies and bunches, and the only

343
00:15:52,519 --> 00:15:53,440
way to do that is to.

344
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 2: Have a hot hutter.

345
00:15:54,279 --> 00:15:56,639
Speaker 3: And he's once again and I say once again, because

346
00:15:56,639 --> 00:15:58,960
it's like every year this guy's a top ten, if

347
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,200
not the best on tour. He ranks ninth right now.

348
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,600
This season starts game putting, so he can roll the rock.

349
00:16:04,639 --> 00:16:07,600
You have to be able to do that. On this season.

350
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,440
He only has two top tens, but that's among eight

351
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,440
top twenties. But the best part about d MAC is that.

352
00:16:15,399 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 2: He makes the weekend. He hasn't missed a cut this

353
00:16:17,399 --> 00:16:20,200
year and he sixteen starts, tied for twelve in his

354
00:16:20,279 --> 00:16:22,440
last start at the Travelers, which was two weeks ago,

355
00:16:22,519 --> 00:16:24,480
so he's got a little benefit of rest not playing

356
00:16:24,559 --> 00:16:27,919
last week as well. But he doesn't miss cuts. That's

357
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:29,159
going to give us a chance.

358
00:16:29,919 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 3: Even if he has a slow maybe Thursday or Friday,

359
00:16:32,399 --> 00:16:34,559
he probably rallies on the other round and we make

360
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,759
the cut and maybe we back to ourselves into a

361
00:16:36,759 --> 00:16:40,200
top ten or top twenty if he's not playing great

362
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:41,879
right off the bat. But I think v MA is

363
00:16:41,919 --> 00:16:44,120
gonna have a good week. I'd be very surprised if

364
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:44,919
he's not in contention.

365
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: Again, let's take a look at draft Kings Darlings. Yeah,

366
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,320
you're right, I mean Denny McCarthy, My god, who can

367
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,120
go on a hotter streak with a putter than Denny McCarthy's.

368
00:16:58,159 --> 00:17:01,480
I believe pretty amazing how he can get that done.

369
00:17:01,519 --> 00:17:03,679
So all right, let's take a look at Draft Kings.

370
00:17:03,759 --> 00:17:06,400
Darlings had a great week last week. Finished sixteenth out

371
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,440
of two hundred in a tournament last week, so yeah,

372
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,720
the previous week wasn't very good, but last week we

373
00:17:12,759 --> 00:17:15,839
had a really really solid showing. Really never in doubt here.

374
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,039
So we're going right back to Adam had one at

375
00:17:18,039 --> 00:17:20,359
sixty eight hundred, came through for us last week. He

376
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,279
pretty much gave us exactly what we wanted, which was

377
00:17:23,839 --> 00:17:26,920
he made the weekend. Wasn't huge upside, but he got

378
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,519
us weekend points and that's all we're looking for. That's

379
00:17:29,559 --> 00:17:32,039
made the cut in seven out of his last eight starts,

380
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,880
so really steady form and in weak field like this,

381
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:36,960
I would expect them to make the cut again. Not

382
00:17:37,039 --> 00:17:41,279
a high ceiling play, but sometimes what they say, sometimes

383
00:17:41,279 --> 00:17:43,359
par is good enough to win. So just give me

384
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,519
a made cut here on this on this course and

385
00:17:46,599 --> 00:17:49,200
give me some weekend points and we'll be really really

386
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,920
happy with that one. Going back to Austin Ekrot, who's

387
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,200
been really good for us, He's been a quiet nice asset,

388
00:17:56,279 --> 00:18:00,559
making the cut in six straight events, consistently delivering weekend points.

389
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,319
Stat profile isn't amazing, but he's just been steady enough

390
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,440
to be priced at this lower level and still get

391
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,720
us weekend points. So cut making street matters in DFS

392
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,119
e coroath price is a little bit low, so he

393
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,680
does have a little bit of upside, but again just

394
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,000
weekend points. And now this guy does have some pretty

395
00:18:19,039 --> 00:18:22,039
good upside. Kevin Roy seventy four hundred. He's becoming one

396
00:18:22,039 --> 00:18:24,880
of my favorite DraftKings darlings. He's made the cut in

397
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,079
seven straight tournaments. He's in those seven tournaments, he's had

398
00:18:28,079 --> 00:18:32,200
an eighth place finish, eighteenth place finish, a fifteenth place finish.

399
00:18:32,319 --> 00:18:35,960
So consistency and a little upside at seventy four hundred

400
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:39,079
makes this a play that I think you have to

401
00:18:39,079 --> 00:18:42,160
have in your lineup. So and as always, my final

402
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,960

Buzz slash Al. All right, let's look at another long

415
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,319
shot here DraftKings Darlings and then another long shot in

416
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,720
a field that is kind of full of long SHOT's Nick,

417
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,240
who did you have circle down the list on the

418
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:28,480
odds page.

419
00:19:28,799 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, you mentioned you're not going to find a player,

420
00:19:31,079 --> 00:19:32,880
you know, that's not going to have some sort of

421
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:35,759
part of his game that you're like, eh, you know,

422
00:19:35,799 --> 00:19:37,400
it's kind of this whole field is he got to

423
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,799
take your chances on somebody that might not be fully

424
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,599
fully rounded. But balla hockey. I really love how he's

425
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,400
been playing in these type.

426
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 2: Of fields this year. He does have four miss cuts

427
00:19:48,039 --> 00:19:50,200
on the season in fifteen individual.

428
00:19:49,799 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 3: Starts, but he's had several good starts in these again

429
00:19:52,759 --> 00:19:55,240
these type of fields. He had a solo fourth at

430
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,160
the Houston Open, ty for twelfth, the Balero Texas Open

431
00:19:58,559 --> 00:20:01,359
ty for seventh, and Myrtle Beach ty for nineteenth at

432
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,839
the Rocket Classic last week, just to prove again this

433
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,000
is kind of his pedigree. He's got a couple other

434
00:20:07,039 --> 00:20:09,720
top twenty finishes and tougher events at the RBC Heritage,

435
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,359
a signature event, and then a Farmer's Insurance Open, which

436
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:13,079
Tory Pines is.

437
00:20:13,079 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 2: Always very very difficult golf course. So he's got several

438
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:20,240
good results this year. Unless you're a nut like us,

439
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,119
you probably have never heard of this guy. But Ballamachy

440
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:24,640
is worth a look.

441
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,920
Speaker 3: He's got the recipe I think for these low scoring events.

442
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,720
He plushes his irons. He ranks twenty seventh actually in

443
00:20:30,759 --> 00:20:34,240
strokeskin approached this season, which is in the top ten

444
00:20:34,279 --> 00:20:34,880
in this field.

445
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:35,400
Speaker 2: This week.

446
00:20:35,839 --> 00:20:38,160
Speaker 3: He's also in the top ten in strokes game this

447
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:40,920
putting this season he comes.

448
00:20:40,759 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 2: In an eighth, so eighth best partter.

449
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,079
Speaker 3: On tour right now this year and in the top

450
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,400
ten and strokes skin approached in this field. Those two

451
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,119
it's exactly why I like d Mac And now you

452
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,680
get me Ballamachi at one hundred to one, okay, is

453
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:56,000
it going to win? But plus eight fifty for a

454
00:20:56,079 --> 00:20:59,519
top ten or plus three sixty for a top twenty,

455
00:20:59,519 --> 00:21:01,920
I think no brainers, and then you just sprinkle a

456
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,559
little bit on the hundred and one. But he's gonna

457
00:21:03,559 --> 00:21:04,839
have to make a lot of berdies. He can roll

458
00:21:04,839 --> 00:21:06,440
the rock. He's hit his irons better than most of

459
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,319
this field. I think it's a recipe for success, and

460
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,240
he's shown that he can he can play and have

461
00:21:10,319 --> 00:21:11,920
good results in these type of fields.

462
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 2: So Sammy Day for the long shot win.

463
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,319
Speaker 1: Love it? Love it? Uh Yeah, A lot a lot

464
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,759
of interesting sprinkles and long shots in this field this week.

465
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,519
So I still go back to Jason Day being the

466
00:21:25,599 --> 00:21:26,400
number one last week.

467
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 2: I know, it's crazy, feels like two.

468
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm surprised Griffin hasn't caught him even in last

469
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:37,960
twelve surprise hasn't caught him this year. So yeah, beg

470
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,920
Griffin will be in my DFS lineup, Like I feel

471
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,640
like he's like almost the new Scottie Sheffler. You have

472
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,400
to put him in some of these lineups. Like if

473
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:51,200
you're played in seasonal Fantasy, you gotta use up.

474
00:21:52,079 --> 00:21:56,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I can't.

475
00:21:56,519 --> 00:21:58,559
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. I don't care. I don't care what

476
00:21:58,599 --> 00:22:01,319
he did last year and now it doesn't such amazing

477
00:22:01,519 --> 00:22:05,480
form this year. Yeah yeah, did not, did not, did

478
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:10,000
not see the Ben Griffin just Elite status come through,

479
00:22:10,079 --> 00:22:12,000
