  Speaker 1: What's going on, everybody. It's Jeff here. I wanted to

  Speaker 1: let you know we recorded this podcast episode on Sunday,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: February second, twenty twenty five. By the time you hear this,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: some things may have changed here or there, but we
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: hope you enjoyed the show. Welcome to Table Talk here
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: at the Philadelphia Sports Table podcast show, the longest running
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: weekly Philly sports podcast show in the world, over eleven
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: and a half years strong, and we got a great
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: discussion coming your way on Table Talk, as we do
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: every week. I gotta tell you I'm excited for the
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: upcoming golf season, folks. Yeah, that's right. The twenty twenty
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: five PGA Tour season is just upon us here. We're
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: gonna see some of our favorite golfers really doing some
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: interesting stop as we do year after year, at least
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: for those of us who are into the sport and
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: the game of golf. If you've been a long time listener,
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: you know Len and I have had some discussions here
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: and there about whether or not golf is a game,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: whether or not it's a sport. We go back and
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: forth on it. I know we talked about this a
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: lot many many years ago when we first started the show,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: but wanted to get into some golf talk as the
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: PGA Tour is really gonna be getting underway here in
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. We have got a great guest. We
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: got a lot of golf talk coming your way.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Let's get to it.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Joining us from Trending in the Am. You can watch
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: them whether you're on Twitch over on YouTube. He's been
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: a good friend of the pod for many years. I
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: love the content that he is auditioning out every day
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: in the morning. Again on Trending in the Am, We've
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: got the one and only Phil Stifele.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: How you doing, buddy, I'm doing fantastic. How are you
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: this afternoon? Doing all right?
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: I'm getting excited that the golf season is like, finally here,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: I'm able to see some golf on my television.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: Doesn't you feel like golf weather outside this exactly? I
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: just walked one of the dogs and that was quite cold.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: But watching on TV is quite refreshing.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: It has been very refreshing.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, we recently had what the Pebble Beach like
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: pro am or something that we've been watching and just
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: like it's not the greatest golf in the world, it's
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: not the majors that we're used to seeing throughout the year.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: But I'm really looking forward, philled to this coming season
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: and really what it's going to offer us golf fans.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: But one of the things that really amazes me about
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: the golf world that I wanted to get into first
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: before we start talking about any players or anything like that.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: First and foremost everybody, we're gonna be talking about men's golf.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: I just wanted to throw that out there. Was thinking
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: about getting into some women's golf too, because women's golf
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: has really picked up some steam over the years for
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: a lot of different reasons. But hopefully we'll get into
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: some women's golf at some point down the road. But again,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: one of the things that really amazes me about the
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: golfing world, Phil is how technology has really advanced over
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: the past couple decades, and it's very noticeable when we're
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: watching these different events in our homes, and I think
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: it's actually brought some more people into the world of golf,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: into the game of golf and sport of golf, and
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: how many folks are now watching it, like whether it's
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: the shot tracer, which is amazing. One of my favorite
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: content creators out there is a guy named MKBHD Marcus Brownlee,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: and he actually did a YouTube video on the shot
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: tracer and what that means and the technology that goes
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: into it, whether it's the audio as we're listening to
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: players on the course with their caddies, technology from our
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: own experiences on the golf course when we're golf and
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: we're using apps to see how far we are away
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: from the green. It's really amazing how far the game
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: of golf has come from a tech perspective. So to
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: start us out here, Phil, I wanted to get your
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: thought on how the advances in golf based technology have
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: really played a role in your opinion with regard to
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: expanding the viewership of the game and those who are
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: watching it at home.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: What are your thoughts? Actually, I disagree.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: I think brought a PGA Tour and lived and the
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: PGA Tour and all these leagues and golf leagues out
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: there haven't capitalized on the technology enough. Oh okay, now
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: a side note they're talking about because you know drivers
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: and irons, people are hitting the golf ball further and further.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: This is not back in the day when we tiger
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: proofed courses, and we had to make them longer.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: They're running out of room. They can't make them longer.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: So they're talking about you know, golf rollbacks, you know
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: what I mean in a few years where they're gonna
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: put new rules on golf ball so they can't hit
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: it as far.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: But what's the one thing that drives casual golf fans crazy.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: It's a slow sport, right. And in the PGA Tour
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: the last year or so, more and more frequently they're
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: not finishing rounds, you know, on the day. Tournaments are
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: taking five days when they should take four days. They
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: don't capitalize on the golf technology to speed it up,
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: to make pace of play a little bit more enjoyable
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: for the casual fans.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: I watch golf every weekend.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: I watch rounds two, three, four, you know, NonStop, every
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: single weekend. But you know you've got like range finders.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Just let's use that for example. Yeah, they allow them
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: now on the Pea during the p Championship, the third
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: major of the year. They don't allow them anywhere else.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: They've tested them out on the corn Ferry Tour. There
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: is talk now about them allowing you know, golfers to
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: use rangefinders, So not spending five minutes every hole counting
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: off paces to the green and whatnot.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Why aren't they doing that? You know, shot tracer.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: You hit a ball into the woods and you're spending
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: five minutes looking for it. You would think that technology
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: is there for them to help find the golf balls
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: a little click right right. You know you've got you know,
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: a rules officials all over the course. Well, somebody needs
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: a rules official to make a rolling. Well, when we
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: do NBA basketball or football, you got refs in a
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: booth that are watching everything that can answer it. They're
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: talking about now bringing that into the game. The problem
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: is they're not capitalizing on the tech that is there
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: to really improve the game for the casual fans. I
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: will watch it every week, but my wife won't watch it,
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: or my brother who's just learning gops not watching it.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: So they need to use that technology more to improve
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: the game, which would improve the telecast, which would bring
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: in more casual fans, which then would make the sport
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: a little bit bigger.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: Do you think that that perhaps they're not utilizing it
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: to its fullest extent because of the traditionalists out there.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: You know, let and I talk about it with the
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: game of baseball too, and we've seen it time and
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: time again.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Phil.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: You know, with the game of baseball, it takes them
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: forever to get up to speed with things. So you
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: think that's what it is. The traditionalists absolutely.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, I know Tiger Woods is in
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: the conversation for later, but I'm just like, you know,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: Tiger Woods is your biggest draw. You know, he's the
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: number one starr in golf, has been for the last
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: twenty five years.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: He can't walk eighteen holes, not for four days in
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: a row, not like we're watching Pebble Beach this weekend.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: He can't walk Pebble Beach. Well let them let him
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: ride a golf cart. At least you're gonna have that draw, right.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: That's against the traditionalist style, and that's why I was
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: bringing it up. They don't like to change the traditions
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: of golf. Baseball has done that. They've changed a lot
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: of traditions and it's improved the pace of play, brought
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: in more casual fans and stuff like that. They're not
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: doing that in golf, and it's a shame. Just something
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: as simple as using range finders would probably knock fifteen
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: to twenty, and it's off of every single round of
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: guy and all these guys that can't finish their their
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: last two holes because of daylight.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: Well, all of a sudden, you've finished those rounds. Spread
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: it up a little bit.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you make some good points here. See, I go
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: back to the days when I was watching golf with
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: my dad every Sunday, and you know, it was just
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: it was a slog to get through and I enjoyed it,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: but it was a slog to get through that final
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: round when they didn't have the shot tracer, when they
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: didn't have other aspects of the technology. You couldn't hear
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: what was going on in the course or anything like that.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: But you definitely raise some good points. And again folks
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: were talking to Phil Stifle from Trending in the Am.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: You can search them out on YouTube, search them out
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: on whatever podcast platform that you are on at Beard
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Acknowledge over on the Twitter dot com.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: So I host just for you know, I do host
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: a golf podcast on Tuesday nights at six o'clock called
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: fair Way to Heaven.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: There are you going to talk about each week's golf tournament?
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: So as well?
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: All right, very good, and I wanted to get into
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: the PGA Tour and the LIV Golf merger here because
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: there're gonna be some very very serious implications as it
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: pertains to the sport in the game of golf that
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: I think is really gonna be a key storyline this
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: year for us to follow, Phil, I mean, with the
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: future of the structure of the tour shifting, you know,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: player movement, along with the mix of traditional and new events.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: You know, fans are going to be watching how these
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: two sides really integrate between the two circuits. So I
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: do wonder how this is going to affect the overall
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: competitiveness and the reputation of the PGA Tour along with
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: the internationalization of the tour as well. It's gonna be
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: a very interesting storyline to follow. Wanted to get your
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: thoughts on on this integration and what we can expect
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: from this perhaps the season.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: I don't know we'll see anything anytime soon. I mean
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: the Live PGA merger, I mean it was announced over
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: a year ago, almost a year and a half ago,
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: and there's still nothing has really happened. But what I
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: think they need to do because one of the big
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: issues in golf right now is personalities, and you know,
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: name players that are going to draw fans in the
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: biggest names, the biggest personalities are actually on the Live
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: Golf Tour. Scotti Scheffler might be the best golfer, but
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: he's a dry man to watch. You can't like watching
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: him golf unless you're a purest. You're pulled out of
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: your mind watching You want to watch Bryce and d Chambeau.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: You want to watch you know, brooks Kepkat. You want
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: to watch these guys with personalities. They're on the live tour.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: So they have to find a way because the merger
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: was really a financial merger. You know, the PIFF, you know,
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: the Saudi Ram, Saudi investment firm, you know, they invested
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: money into the PGA Tour to help Live is.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: Not going anywhere. Live is not going to disappear.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: They actually just this year signed a huge TV agreement
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: with Fox, so they're going to be for the first
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: time live on TV on Fox on a major network.
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: So they're not going anywhere. The problem is because the
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: live golfers don't get World Golf ranking points. Slowly but surely,
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: you're gonna see less and less live golfers as they
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: fall down the ranking being able to appear in the
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: major tournaments, and you're seeing some of the guys that
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: are on that fringe now playing in the secondary tours
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: that get ranking points and stuff like that to try
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: to keep their eligibility. What they need to do is
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: they need to find some kind of common ground. Whether
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: it's all right the twenty twenty five seasons complete, the
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: top twenty players on the Live Tour are eligible playing
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: all the majors and four events of their choice on
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: the PGA Tour or something like that, you know, some
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: kind of a thing like that, or I mean, the
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: big non traditionalists we talked about traditions of GoF about
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: Live is it's a three round tournament versus four.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: You know they already have calculations in place for the
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: Asian Tour, the DP Tour, every tournament not on the
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: PGA Tour is rated differently in the you know, official
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: World GoF rankings. Well, why can't they come up with
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: a ranking system for the live tournament?
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: Like instead of getting a hundred points, you get seventy
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: five points because you're playing three rounds not four.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: What I'm just making up those numbers. But you get
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: what I'm saying.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: You gotta find away because the number one issuing golf
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: right now is the draw on the PGA Tour. There
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: is no draw, there's no huge personalities, there's no there's
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: no Tiger Woods anymore, you know, like them or hate them.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: Bryson D. Chambeau is the biggest drawing golf right now. Exactly.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: We don't see him on our TVs on a weekly basis.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: We see his YouTube. We see him hitting golf balls
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: over his house and trying to make hold in one.
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: We see this personality. He's actually this past week was
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: playing somewhere in Asia on some small tour and he.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Was asked why.
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: He's like, because I'm trying to help grow the game,
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: and I'm trying to help you know, other countries get
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: invested in our game. And I was like, he's wasting
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: a week ind of his life, not trying to win
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: the tournament, just trying. He was out on the range,
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: you know, signing autographs after this event this past week.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: We don't have those personalities. The most golfers are boring.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: I get that, but you gotta find a way to
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: engage the fans and by merging or coming to some
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: form of agreement so we can see more of these
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: lived golfers mix it up with the PJ golfers. I
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: mean they're not even invited to the Ryder Cup for
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: the Presidents Cup or any of that stuff. You know,
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: that's that's not good for the game. The partnership that
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: you talk about is a financial partnership. They got to
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: find an agreement to keep the players playing together even
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: if they're on separate tours.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: They're definitely moving into snail's pace. We can definitely say
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: that's ridiculous.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: Yes, I mean it all comes down to and not
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: to get to, you know, out of control on this.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: It comes down to J moynihan, the commissioner of the
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: PJ Tour. I mean, you say what you will about
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: Roger Goodell or Adam Silver, any of these other commissioners.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: I mean J moyhan how he's kept his job, I
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: have no idea. It's incredible, how literally trying his best
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: to ruin the PGA Tour.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: It's like in baseball, all these guys, it's amazing. I
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: actually think Roderdell would probably be the best one out
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: of them all.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: That's I don't know.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: And that's the problem though, because like in sports, the
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: owners of the teams, you know, are the boss or
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: the commissioner I guess, or the commissioner.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: Who paid like the PJ.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: Toyer pays, you know, Jay moynan, and he's his own
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: boss basically, right. He doesn't have that body of people
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: like the players can't fire him, you know what I mean.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: So that's kind of the tough spot that they're in there. Absolutely.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Well, look, you mentioned Tiger Woods earlier, and I want
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: to get into some of these storylines here that we
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: may be seeing in twenty twenty five. Tiger Woods certainly
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: is one of those players, and I really do wonder
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: where his career really kind of goes from here. I mean,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: we've seen him scale back playing in a number of
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: tournaments over the years, rightfully so with his injury history,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: and I would expect that to continue of cours here
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five. But I do wonder how many
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: majors he's going to play in and how much of
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: a golf mentor, you know, he's going to be to
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: other young players coming up the ranks, not just his
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: son Charlie, but but how many other young golfers that
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: he will be that mentor for where he can possibly
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: get that next big personality, explain to them what it
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: means how to go about the business.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: Perhaps, I don't know.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on what we may see from
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Tiger Woods this coming year, Phil, First.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: And foremost that you mentioned his son, Charlie, who's a
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: heck of a young goy. For yes, the thing, if
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: there's people out there that think that the PGA Tour
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: needs saving, you know what's gonna save the PGA Tour.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: You put Charlie Woods in the Masters on an exemption
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: and have them paired in the first two rounds with
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: his dad.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Then an actual competitive.
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: I'm just telling you, Tiger and Charlie on the course
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: together is money they used to have.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Well they still have the event, the Zurich Classic. It's
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: like tag team.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: It's like it's a you know, tag team, Champions of
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: the World, the PGA tag team, you know what I mean.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: And just put them in that event together.
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: I mean like it would it would, It would do
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: ratings out the wazoo.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: It really yep.
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: But Tiger's first Tiger's playing career. Tiger was supposed to
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: play more this year. He played all four majors last year.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: He's only played seven events since the start of the
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty two season, for them being last year.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: He was supposed to play more this year.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: With the the format of the elevated events that they've
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: instituted the last couple of years. He was given a
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: special exemption to play in all elevated events. Cobble Beach
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: is the first elevated event outside of the Century, which
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: is a champion's only event, the first real full elevate event.
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: And he's not there at Pebble Beach this week because
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: he can't walk the course.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: In a couple of weeks.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: Genesis, which is being moved from the legendary Riviera Country
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: Club to Tory Pines because of the fires in California.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: That's normally a course that's his sponsored event. He would
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: normally play it. He hasn't committed to play in it yet.
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: I expect him to play the four Majors or at
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: least give it a go. I will say him and
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: Rory McElroy starting the TGL, the Tomorrow Golf League or
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: whatever they're calling it, which is like the Golf Simulator League,
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: setting him at least a little bit more given competitive
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: throughout the year. So maybe that helps him get to
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: a fifth or sixth event. But I think the days
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: a Tiger doing anything but playing in the four majors
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: is going to be very far and few between. And
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: he does that and the days they can compete in
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: the events. I mean, he missed three of the four
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: cuts last year. The only cut he made was the Masters,
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: and he missed the cutting the other three majors. But
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: him as the leader, the person that's growing the game,
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: that helping the game, you know, it's it's it's weird.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: So Rory McElroy, he was really the front poster child
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: of Anti Live for a while and it hurt his game. Yep,
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: he's dialed back his leadership role and he's playing really
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: great that he's tired. We're recording this on Sunday. He's
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: tied for the lead at the Pet Pebble Beat right now.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: So he's dialing back his relate. Is this is where
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: Tiger Woods can come in. Tiger Woods is only playing
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: four times a year. He should be taking that leadership role.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: Is he. I'm not really sure.
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: Is he a mentor Maybe the problem is with golf
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: mentoring to grow the game.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: You can. You can teach guys.
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: How to GoF you can't teach these guys how to
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: be a person out right, So you just can't. You know,
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: you know, these golfers are wearing mics on holes and
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: talking to the announcers and stuff like that.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: They're dry.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: The TGL the new golf, indoor golf simularly is supposed
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: to be showing the personalize these golfers.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Unfortunately, there is there's no personality in the common golfer.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: I don't know if Tiger can grow the future of
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: the game, but Tiger hanging around as long as he can,
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: even if it's just a few times a year, can
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: help sustain the game until we get lucky and find
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: another Bryson d.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Chambeau that stays on the PGA Tour to make.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: You're absolutely correct, because even if Tiger Woods is playing
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: like dog crap, I'm still gonna put I'm still gonna
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: put my TV on and watch them because you know what,
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: I want to see that swing.
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: I just do And I was always taught by my
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: father In all sports. When you get to live during
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: a generational talents, you know era whether you like the
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: team they play on or don't like the team, like
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: Michael Jordan. My dad always told me, you, oh you
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: don't like the Bulls, that that's fine, but you'll never
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: see another Michael Jordan, so you better watch every second
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: you can. And that translates to Tiger We'll never see
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: another Tiger Wood. Probably not that has the whole package,
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: the golf, the business, acumen, the personality, all of that.
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: You'll never see another Tiger Woods.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: Probably.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. Why you can't, absolutely, dude. Last night I was
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: watching the Lakers next game. Why because I don't know
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: how much longer we're gonna see Lebron James, regardless of
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: what you think of him, is one of the greatest
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: physical athletes that has ever played a sport in the
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: history of sports, and we just don't know how much
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: longer we're gonna see him. So I was watching the
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: game last night, and I'm not even a Lakers or
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: Knicks fan, by the way, So but as we're moving
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: along with a conversation here, I'm really you know, I'm
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: really excited to see what the younger talent possibly does
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: in terms of how they blossom this year. You know,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: players like Will Zalatoris, Tom Kim Joaquim Neeman are a
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: few guys that I'm gonna be keeping my eyes on
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: this year, Phil and I guess the question will be
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: can they compete consistently with guys like Scottie Scheffler and
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: Roy McElroy. I'm wondering, like, who are you keeping your
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: eyes on this year? In terms of the younger talent
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: that we're gonna be seeing on the tour? Do you
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: have any names?
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: All right? First for it, what do you consider younger talent?
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: Because Will's alators. People don't realize it.
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: He's already twenty eight years old because he missed every
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: year he's gotten up there top t him. I love
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: that name, and Nieman's on the Live Tour Nieman. Ifneman
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: does not have a good showing at the Masters, yeah,
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: he might lose his World Golf ranking.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: State.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: He's one of those guys I was talking about earlier
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: that needs to play other events because he's one major
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: away of missing the cut of losing his exemption to
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: get into the rest of the Major.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: So, I mean, he's a great young talent.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: But that's a great example of what I was talking
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: about before about finding a common ground because he plays
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: great on the Live tour. Yeah, problem is you're not
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: earning those World GoF ranking points.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: So that's that.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: The problem is if you consider twenty eight Wills Tours
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: young enough, there's a lot.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: Like dude, I thought he was like twenty five. I'm
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: thinking he's like still like twenty five years two. He
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: missed two years almost completely. Yeah, with a back injury.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: And that's why I'm a big better. Like my show
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: centers around gambling on golf.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I refuse to bet on Willsal Tours anymore until
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: I see him win again because he hasn't been consistent
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: since the back end.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Ye, you know what I mean.
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: He's he got a little bit of personality. He's got
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: that long, lanky swing. He did supposedly put on fifteen
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: pounds of muscle, which we heard without Boem that too,
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: and that didn't help.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: I will see the phillies.
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: But anyway, so young names that I'll look to to
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: carry the game first and foremost, the youngest of them all.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: And I butcher names all the time.
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: Excenames, They're horrible, yestea. Yeah, twenty three, he's got two
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: wins in the last three years. He's got a little
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: bit of personality. He was semi getting famous his rookie
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: year a couple of years ago because he was living
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: in a van with a girl he met on Tinder
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: or some dating app that became his caddy and they
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: were living in the van. Driving to tournament. There's a
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: person he was ripping his shirt off. The dude skinnier
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: than you know, a stick figure, but he crushes the ball.
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: So he's got a little personality if he can develop
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: his game to compete on the major level. And I
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: do think his game is perfect for an event like
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: the Masters. And I'm not saying he's gonna win the
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: Masters this year, but his game fits Augusta National very well.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: And those kind of creative things. He's got a little
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: bit of the Bubble Watson in him.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: He just goes out there and just I think I
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: can curve this golf ball at a ninety degree angle
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: and then draw it back in the other Like.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: He has that creativity to him.
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: He's a name I think will be a major champion
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: in the next year or two.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: So that's a guy I keep an eye on to.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: Heath Tagala.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: He's twenty seven now and he's got one win in
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty three, but he's still pretty young and new
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: on the tour. Yeah, love his game. I just looked
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: to the names that the big names. I look at
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: Xander Schaffle, even though he's you know, pushing thirty. Yeah,
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: but he finally broke through and won two majors last year.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: Wyndham Clark, who's got a fiery personality, who won the
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: US Open two years ago, and I not to get
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: a little low brow with the humor, Victor Hoblin was
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: always the guy I thought was going to be that guy.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: He showed up two years ago to the end of
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: year awards banquet with two supermodels under each arm.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'm like, this guy gets it.
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: He's twenty four whatever he is, he's got two no girlfriend,
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: he's just got two girls under each arm, and he's
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: out there having a great time playing out.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: I'm like, that's what this game needs.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: You know, that that that that that, that whimsical look personality. Unfortunately,
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: he's changed his swing seventy five times and you know
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: he hasn't been able to to to really sustain it.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: But they're the names I looked for. Problem is Xander Schopfel.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: He was probably the second best golfer on the PGA
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: Tour behind Scotty has no personality. Yeah, when he was
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: on the TGL a few weeks ago, it was the
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: lowest ratings in their four week you know, short four
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: week history. Because he was the biggest name. Everyone tuned in.
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: Everyone realized this guy's boring as can be on TV.
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: So you know that's really the problem. Who's the great
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: golfers or who's the personalities?
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: What do you want to see?
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: And I think Petella, though, really is the guy that
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: has that potential personality, what guy to win but also
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: to to grow the game.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: I think you dished out some really really good names there.
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: But you know, we mentioned Rory McElroy a number of
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: times already. He is a guy you know that I
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: and so many others root for year after year. I mean,
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: he has won the FedEx Cup, he won that back
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two. He's always competitive in several majors
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: and I think a lot of us are going to
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: be watching him closely this year to see if he
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: can secure more major wins as one of the storylines
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: of this coming PGA Tour. Just again, in terms of
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: the storylines, where do you see Rory McElroy in his
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: career at this point. And I don't know if you
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: want to, because I know you know Fairway to Heaven
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: podcast that you host. I don't know if you want
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: to get into maybe some like betting type stuff with
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: this as well. You don't have to, But where do
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: you see Rory McElroy in his career at this point?
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: I mean, Rory McElroy is still a great golfer, and
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: I'm hoping this year we see a little bit turnaround
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: since he's taking less of the fight against living PGA
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: Tour on and he's focusing on golf a little bit more.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: The problem with that with Rory is all about scheduling.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: He's got so many other things that he's involved in,
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: and the PGA Tour schedule is a pretty grueling thing.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he won once last year.
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: He's been top five in the Tour championship standings, you know,
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: top ten the last five years with one Tour Championship win.
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: He's won the Tour Championship twice. He hasn't won a
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: major in a really long time. And I don't think
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: that's because his game's not great. It's just that we
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: can mention thirty five golfers names. The PGA Tour might
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: not have a lot of Scotty Scheffler's or Rory's, but
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: they've got a lot of really good golfers, accept Stracas
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: of the World, the cam Davis, the Justin Rose is
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: still playing.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: At a high level.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: They got a lot of really good golfers. So it's
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: very hard to win on the PGA Tour. That's why
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: what Scotty s Sheffler did last year was so amazing.
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: It's very hard to win on the PGA Tour. Can
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: Rory win another major? Absolutely? Is he playing well this
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: year the start of the year. Yeah, he's playing very good.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: Will he I would not bet on Rory McElroy to
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: win another major this year because the odds just won't
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: be spicy enough for me to lay a bet on it.
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: In the golfing world, when you're talking about betting, you
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: when you bet a football game it's minus one ten
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: or plus one twenty five, you're getting even money basically
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: on your money, give or take. Golf world, the top golfers,
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: the favorite golfer Scotty Cheffer this past week that was
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: I think he was four to one to win the event.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: And that was the favorite, and some casual football fans
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: we had all four to one. That's great in the
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: golf world, when there's one hundred and fifty six golfers
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: at an event, they're not really great eyes. So Rory
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: mcroy's eight to one, nine to one, second or third
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: every single week. It's hard to bet him to win. Yeah,
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: because there's no value in the golf world, in the
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: golf betting world there Kenny.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: Sure will he it's it's gonna be, it's gonna be
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: really tough.
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: He'll win at least one or two tournaments this year,
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: will finish in the top ten in the in the
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: the Tour Championship.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Again, he's that good.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: But I think the days of him being a regular
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: winner in the in the majors, and I think it
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: might be it might be gone.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think we You were talking about his consistency
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: with Rory at the end of the day, and he
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: doesn't get that guy I was.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: Talking about on my show the other day because we
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: were trying to figure out why it's so hard early
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: in the season. There's so many tournaments early in the
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: season in Jen Why in the start of February, Why
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: is it so hard to draw the big names to
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: these events.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: It's because they have eight elevated events.
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: You got four majors, you got the Players Championship, and
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: you got the three playoff events.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: That's sixteen tournaments right there in about a twenty two
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: week stretch.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: That's sixteen to twenty two weeks on the road nonstopin
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: the PJ. Tory needs to do something to stretch out
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: the schedule a little bit. Spread the schedule out a
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: little bit more, or give them by weeks mixed in.
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: Then you would see more competitive tournaments, and you might
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: you might see Rory playmore, you might see Rory win more.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: He's young, he's got a family, he's.
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: Got a wife, you know what I mean, not spending
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: as much time as he used to there. So maybe
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: working on the schedule would change some of the results
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: of some of the people like Rory.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: I think it's a great point, great great point, buddy.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: Before I let you go though, you know, we talked
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: about some young guys coming up the ranks just a
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: few minutes ago, but kind of a more general question
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: for you again before I let you head out here,
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: wondering who you are seeing as just major contenders, this season.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: Of course, Scotti Scheffler is up there for me, is
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: as he should be for everybody. Colin Mari Kawa, he's
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: up there for me as well. Who are you seeing
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: as some major contenders this year that we need to
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: keep our eyes on.
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: And I love that you mentioned Colin Morri Kala's name,
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: because everyone loves Kalin Moore.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: Kyley's one of the one of the best golfers in
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: the world.
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you realize he hasn't won since
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty three in the Zozo, which is like one
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: of the knockoff tournaments. His last major win the Open
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: in twenty twenty one. That's how difficult it is to
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: win on tour. But Klin More Kaala is a guy
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: that's consistently there. He's young enough.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: I could see Colin Mori Kawa winning a major this year. Obviously.
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: Scotty Schefler is always going to be the favorite in
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: every event he tees it up in. He'll probably win
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: or be in the top three of the Masters again
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: this year. Yep, I still and I know you're not
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: a huge Bryson d. Chambeau fan, but Bryson D. Chambeau
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: is good for the game, and he's a reigning major champion.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: Bryson will be in contention at every single major this year, and.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: His personality is kind of changing flipment. People are starting
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: to like him.
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: He's going from the heel to the face in wrestling terms. Yes,
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: so he's gonna be a guy that's there. I think
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: Sanders Shoffley is about to go. He won twice last
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: year at major events. He can never win the big one,
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: supposedly winning twice last year, I think we're on the
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: Xander train now.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: I think Xander's going to rattle off or.
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: Four more majors in the next two years because Xander Shoffley,
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: while boring, is a phenomenal golfer. And I think this
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: is the year that Justin Thomas gets back in the
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: major championship winner circle. This year, He's won the PGA
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: Championship before. It's a perfect tournament for his skill set.
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: I could totally see Justin Thomas winning that again, or
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: maybe a US Open.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: I've got my eye on Justin Thomas all year long.
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: And if you want a guy that hasn't won a
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: major that might win one this year, this one.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to I'm trying.
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: I want to say betea again, but I just don't
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: know if he's quite ready there.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: Sam Burns, Oh, I'm a huge Sam Burns fane.
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: He's never won a major, but he's been in contention,
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: He's won on the tour a few times. Sam Burns
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: is a grinder. He's not flashy one bit, but he
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: is a grinder. And that's what you need to win
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: the PGA Championship. That's what you need to win the
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: Masters or the US Open. You need a grinder. And
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: Sam Burns he was in contention this week at at
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: and T for a good stretch of until the weather
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: hit on Saturday. But I mean, Sam Burns is a
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: guy that could win one maybe this year or next year.
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: So I'm gonna have my eye on Sam Burns. I'm
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: gonna have my eye on Justin Thomas this year.
• 29:28
