- 0:00Speaker 1: All systems going clear link. Good evening wherever you guys
- 0:33Speaker 1: were tuning. And I hope you guys had a nice
- 0:35Speaker 1: first day of the Scottish Open. And hope you guys
- 0:38Speaker 1: are not too tired. I hope you guys didn't wake
- 0:41Speaker 1: up at what two am was the first tea time
- 0:44Speaker 1: last night. So I know some people, I mean, it's
- 0:47Speaker 1: length season. You gotta get up at some point. But
- 0:50Speaker 1: we're here. We are here in length season. I love
- 0:54Speaker 1: length season. Get those early wake ups and sweat the golf.
- 0:57Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm bleeding. I'm currently bleeding on a book.
- 1:00Speaker 1: We rabb an apkin and move on. That's the business
- 1:04Speaker 1: of live podcasts. But nonetheless, we saw some nice golf
- 1:09Speaker 1: in round one from the Renaissance Club. I'm going to
- 1:12Speaker 1: shre mascreen in a recap. Who did what, how they
- 1:16Speaker 1: did it? So let's not waste any time. Let's talk
- 1:18Speaker 1: some golf. Round one we saw. I hate when this happens.
- 1:23Speaker 1: I hate when this happens. Here we go, Here we go.
- 1:25Speaker 1: We saw Tom kim Burn, Weisburger, Patrick can't lay, Rory McCrory,
- 1:29Speaker 1: Rasmus squareguard, all shoot rounds of five under par. They
- 1:33Speaker 1: kind of did it in different ways. Rasmus was approach
- 1:37Speaker 1: and putter Tom Kim was driving accuracy plus approach. Burn
- 1:42Speaker 1: Weisbagger was pure approach, Patrick can't Lay was all green
- 1:46Speaker 1: they means to gain strokes across the ward, and Rory
- 1:50Speaker 1: McRory was driving distance plus all green. So those were
- 1:55Speaker 1: some unique ways to I guess get by around there, rentns.
- 2:00Speaker 1: This morning, a lot of them came from the morning
- 2:02Speaker 1: wave outside of Rasmus score Guard and we'll get to
- 2:04Speaker 1: the wave split and the weather in a second. But
- 2:06Speaker 1: I want to touch this is like I must have
- 2:08Speaker 1: cut myself. I don't know how, but you guys see
- 2:10Speaker 1: this blood right aw right, it's not just me. I
- 2:14Speaker 1: talked about how the approach and like TPC stat lines,
- 2:19Speaker 1: we're gonna come through in this early part of the
- 2:22Speaker 1: Renaissance Club, and we're kind of seeing that and looking
- 2:24Speaker 1: at the weather for tomorrow, I think we're gonna get
- 2:27Speaker 1: a little bit more of that tomorrow. So let's take
- 2:31Speaker 1: a look at that weather while we're on the topic.
- 2:34Speaker 1: And here's the weather for tomorrow's round. As you can see,
- 2:38Speaker 1: early morning commer winds with some gusts that are doubling
- 2:41Speaker 1: it and then once the PM wave tea is off,
- 2:43Speaker 1: it is double digit wind and double digit GUS. So
- 2:48Speaker 1: based on what this is showing, it looks like there
- 2:51Speaker 1: could be a legitimate AM PM wave. And if we
- 2:54Speaker 1: combine that with what we saw for the wave splits today,
- 2:58Speaker 1: it was almost I mean, look at wass but minus
- 3:01Speaker 1: zero point seven in the in the AM plus point
- 3:05Speaker 1: four in the PM. So there was this significant wave
- 3:09Speaker 1: split in the morning and we're getting more of that
- 3:11Speaker 1: weather tomorrow. So with that being said, I'm really looking
- 3:15Speaker 1: for the AM PM split tomorrow, and I'm looking for
- 3:20Speaker 1: guys who are having that TPC Tom Kim, Scottie Scheffler,
- 3:25Speaker 1: Royal Port rush that line versus a normal scrambling around
- 3:29Speaker 1: the green links that line in the PM. You're gonna
- 3:32Speaker 1: need some some around the green. You're gonna need to
- 3:33Speaker 1: be able to hold some ten foot par putts. But
- 3:36Speaker 1: that's not what we're looking for in Showdown, and that's
- 3:38Speaker 1: gonna change in Saturday Show and Sunday Show. It's gonna change.
- 3:41Speaker 1: So we're talking Friday, July. What is it July? I
- 3:46Speaker 1: don't even know the date. July tenth is Friday. That's
- 3:49Speaker 1: what we're looking for. For tomorrow early morning TPC Scotline,
- 3:53Speaker 1: hit fairways or drive it along and spike on approach.
- 3:58Speaker 1: It's gonna change every weekend, but that's where we're looking
- 3:59Speaker 1: for for tomorrow's showdown. So let's talk contest selection, let's
- 4:03Speaker 1: talk to site, and let's get into some players that
- 4:05Speaker 1: we like. So contest selection for tomorrow. This PGA Tour
- 4:09Speaker 1: Showdown twelve K long Drive pays two thousand dollars up
- 4:13Speaker 1: top for entry and that ten percent mark comes all
- 4:18Speaker 1: the way at seventeenth to twenty. Second place pays out
- 4:22Speaker 1: one pays out thirty one of that one to thirty three.
- 4:25Speaker 1: Not the greatest percentage in the world, but I just
- 4:27Speaker 1: like how you don't have to have a top ten
- 4:30Speaker 1: cash to get a decent payouts structure in terms of
- 4:32Speaker 1: what the leader and you could beat one hundred people.
- 4:35Speaker 1: You could beat one hundred and ten people and get
- 4:37Speaker 1: in this cash easily. So PGA Tour Showdown twelve K
- 4:40Speaker 1: long Drive is my contest selection for tomorrow in terms
- 4:44Speaker 1: of the site. In just a little bit, actually, probably
- 4:46Speaker 1: by the time you're watching it, you're gonna be able
- 4:47Speaker 1: to click right here. PGA Slate station not locked in,
- 4:51Speaker 1: but I guess I can log in real quick. You're
- 4:53Speaker 1: not gonna see my passord, so don't rob my account.
- 4:56Speaker 1: There's my email if you want to email me, don't
- 4:57Speaker 1: please don't hack me again. Now slate Station, it's not
- 5:02Speaker 1: up yet, but in just a little bit. What the heck?
- 5:05Speaker 1: Oh I'm I am sorry. This is the week long
- 5:07Speaker 1: slate There, slow down, showdown slate Station, showdown slate Station.
- 5:12Speaker 1: You were gonna get the core report, the tier rankings,
- 5:15Speaker 1: the spike rankings, the weather forecasts, and a little bit
- 5:18Speaker 1: of a write up. I almost I almost went to
- 5:20Speaker 1: that original week long slate Station. I was like, I
- 5:22Speaker 1: didn't feel any of this out yet, Like is this
- 5:24Speaker 1: did I did I like dream or something? So Showdown, Projections, Stone,
- 5:29Speaker 1: slate Station, use all three of those things, maybe take
- 5:33Speaker 1: three names from each and then build your player pool.
- 5:36Speaker 1: Use that player pool to put into the optimizer, and
- 5:39Speaker 1: cash with us. So use code boots. Code Boots gets
- 5:43Speaker 1: you ten percent off, or it gets you a free
- 5:44Speaker 1: week trial if you have not done that yet. But
- 5:47Speaker 1: now it is time to find golfers, find profiles that
- 5:50Speaker 1: we are looking for. And this is this is the
- 5:55Speaker 1: first look that I've had at these golfers. So I'm
- 5:59Speaker 1: gonna be going right with you and showing you my workflow.
- 6:02Speaker 1: This is what I do when I'm looking for showdown
- 6:04Speaker 1: golfer is based on the key stats I'm looking for.
- 6:06Speaker 1: I'm talking, I don't really need driving accuracy or driving distance.
- 6:12Speaker 1: I'm really looking for approach and like putting like that's
- 6:15Speaker 1: that's TPC, that's what that's what works at TPC golf
- 6:18Speaker 1: courses and TPC when Aisson's club is a joke, but
- 6:21Speaker 1: it's in comparison to the stat line that we're looking for,
- 6:24Speaker 1: and that's the stat line we're looking for tomorrow morning.
- 6:27Speaker 1: So I'm looking for am guys with that stat line.
- 6:30Speaker 1: Let's do it. Let's share the screen. Bang three to
- 6:34Speaker 1: one and we are shared. Bang all right, So morning guys.
- 6:40Speaker 1: I'm also going to bring up the tea times right now,
- 6:45Speaker 1: so we'll do a little cross reference right here. So
- 6:47Speaker 1: tea times we're looking at two am Eastern time. So
- 6:51Speaker 1: Doug gin technically like, I'm actually gonna do it this way,
- 6:55Speaker 1: go through the golfers in the morning and see if
- 6:58Speaker 1: they have a stat line that makes sense based on
- 7:01Speaker 1: the type of player that they are. So I'll talk
- 7:03Speaker 1: about Doug Gim, Chris Kirk, and Jake Nap. Doug Gim
- 7:10Speaker 1: is generally a great approach player if he's okay, I'm
- 7:14Speaker 1: just gonna talk about the baseline. Doug gam is generally
- 7:16Speaker 1: a good approach player. Chris Kirk generally a good approach player.
- 7:19Speaker 1: Jake Napp generally driving distance and putting. Let's see what
- 7:23Speaker 1: those guys are doing through one round. I'm almost taking
- 7:28Speaker 1: Michael Burnham. Jake Nap not doing anything we are looking for.
- 7:32Speaker 1: He is long, he is I mean, this isn't the
- 7:36Speaker 1: worst profile in the world now because I said Jake
- 7:38Speaker 1: Nap driver putter. He gained a full stroke off the
- 7:41Speaker 1: tee and he was about a zero on the green.
- 7:43Speaker 1: There's no reason that he can't spike in these two categories,
- 7:45Speaker 1: because that is why you got to know your guys.
- 7:47Speaker 1: Jake Nap is good at these things. He lost strokes
- 7:49Speaker 1: around the green on approach. Around the green, I'm not
- 7:51Speaker 1: too worried about it tomorrow, and the approach. He doesn't
- 7:54Speaker 1: need the game too much. On approach, he is a
- 7:56Speaker 1: driver putter. So I don't hate that profile from Jake
- 7:58Speaker 1: Nap and Chris Kirk about I would like to see
- 8:01Speaker 1: more in the approach category. He did too much around
- 8:03Speaker 1: the green, so I'm probably gonna pass on Chris Kirk.
- 8:05Speaker 1: And the final guy was Doug gam Doug him. This
- 8:07Speaker 1: is a nice profile. I know he lost two point
- 8:10Speaker 1: three strokes putting in one round, but that was just
- 8:14Speaker 1: run round. He's not gonna lose two point three strokes
- 8:16Speaker 1: putting tomorrow. So if he gains a full stroke gun approach,
- 8:20Speaker 1: which he can. He gained a gain one point one
- 8:22Speaker 1: seven strokes to de Green, almost a full stroke ball striking.
- 8:25Speaker 1: I like the approach play that he's bringing in. If
- 8:26Speaker 1: he could find anything in the putting greens tomorrow, he
- 8:28Speaker 1: could have a nice round. Was he last in putting? Now?
- 8:31Speaker 1: He was like? Where was it? Like? Ten to last
- 8:38Speaker 1: in putting? Not the worst thing I've ever seen. So
- 8:40Speaker 1: those are some guys that are going out really early
- 8:42Speaker 1: that I do like. Let's find some more guys in
- 8:45Speaker 1: this morning wave and cross reference based on profile. Sam
- 8:48Speaker 1: Stevens been playing nice. Let's look at Nick Taylor, look
- 8:51Speaker 1: at Sahati Gala, Sam Stevens and Nick Taylor. Sahati Gala Stevens.
- 8:57Speaker 1: Sam Stevens has been struggling with the approach stat line
- 8:59Speaker 1: and everything else well, and that's exactly what's going on here.
- 9:02Speaker 1: So I don't mind buying Sam Stevens for tomorrow. He's
- 9:04Speaker 1: kind of doing what he's been doing well recently. He
- 9:07Speaker 1: played well at Sha Coock. I need to great comp
- 9:09Speaker 1: a nice two and a round on the PM. Let's
- 9:11Speaker 1: do that. Sikala loved him going into the week shot
- 9:13Speaker 1: even part of day. The ball striking I think is
- 9:16Speaker 1: gonna come around for scythe but I would like to
- 9:17Speaker 1: see more of the driving distance. I'm probably gonna pass
- 9:20Speaker 1: for side the Gala. And then the final guy we
- 9:21Speaker 1: were looking for was we said Stevens the Gala and
- 9:29Speaker 1: I forget who we said. But let's look at Jordan
- 9:32Speaker 1: Smith Approach Merchant, TPC Merchant and Sung Jam. I need
- 9:36Speaker 1: to see some around the green from Sun JM Sung
- 9:38Speaker 1: Jay No one around the green. We're gonna cross him off.
- 9:41Speaker 1: We're gonna look at Jordan Smith. There we go, Jordan
- 9:46Speaker 1: Smith TPC Approach. Merson gained one point eight five strokes
- 9:50Speaker 1: tea Green at at two point three strokes ball striking,
- 9:55Speaker 1: love with a zero putting love Jordan Smith tomorrow, Love
- 9:58Speaker 1: love love Jordan Smith tomorrow. So that's kind of what
- 10:00Speaker 1: I'm doing cross referencing. But let's look at some more golfers.
- 10:03Speaker 1: Tommy Fleetwood went out and all greened it. He was
- 10:05Speaker 1: in the PM so he's gonna go out in the
- 10:07Speaker 1: morning tomorrow. Love that profile. No reason he can't shoot
- 10:10Speaker 1: three on tomorrow, should be really really solid. Some other profiles.
- 10:15Speaker 1: Nikolai Horgard absolutely striped it. Does he go out in
- 10:17Speaker 1: the morning tomorrow? Nikolai, No, he does not. He's in
- 10:24Speaker 1: a PM wave to tomorrow. Even though it says eight
- 10:26Speaker 1: ten Eastern time, he's in a PM wave. Ludwig Ludwig,
- 10:29Speaker 1: Ludwig nice, driving fairly even on approach, just had a
- 10:34Speaker 1: bad pudding day. Ludwig should bounce back tomorrow, and he's
- 10:36Speaker 1: going out in the morning. I believe Ludgig goes out
- 10:39Speaker 1: at three thirty nine Eastern time. Am So I like
- 10:43Speaker 1: that a lot. I like that a lot. Let's take
- 10:46Speaker 1: a look at Scotty Scheffler. Scotty Scheffler was about even everywhere.
- 10:50Speaker 1: There's no reason he can't spike on approach. I like
- 10:52Speaker 1: that a lot, But I probably prefer Ludwig at the
- 10:54Speaker 1: top based on the price. And let's get to one
- 10:59Speaker 1: more guy before we've closed it out with the one
- 11:01Speaker 1: golfer we were on. You and Ferguson, if he is
- 11:03Speaker 1: going out in the morning, I don't think I mind, now,
- 11:06Speaker 1: tell me and Ferguson now, No, he might be on
- 11:10Speaker 1: the PM. Yeah, I really want to sit to this am,
- 11:13Speaker 1: So let's find one more before we uh get to that.
- 11:16Speaker 1: Matt Pavone in the six k range did everything even
- 11:20Speaker 1: if he could pop with the putter or the driving distance.
- 11:23Speaker 1: I like it in the six k range tomorrow, So
- 11:25Speaker 1: Pavone goes out early. I don't mind that at all.
- 11:29Speaker 1: But the one golfer that we are going to be
- 11:31Speaker 1: on for tomorrow might not have the greatest stat line
- 11:33Speaker 1: in the while in the world, But when he gets
- 11:35Speaker 1: to this side of the country, he doesn't win, but
- 11:37Speaker 1: he puts rounds together and I'm not I'm not, I'm
- 11:40Speaker 1: not missing it. That is Stepstraka. He lost two point
- 11:43Speaker 1: two strokes on approach. He's not been hitting it his best,
- 11:46Speaker 1: but Stepstraka is rarely gonna lose two point two strokes
- 11:49Speaker 1: on approach and a single round. He did everything else
- 11:52Speaker 1: so solid, still shot at even par around in the afternoon.
- 11:55Speaker 1: He's going out in the morning tomorrow. I like him
- 11:57Speaker 1: to lean on the putter, lean on the driving accuracy,
- 11:59Speaker 1: and just find something on approach. I think it's gonna happen,
- 12:02Speaker 1: and when it happens, everyone's gonna be like, damn, that's
- 12:05Speaker 1: Step Round. We should have been on it. Let's get
- 12:07Speaker 1: on it for tomorrow. Stepstrak is the one golfer that
- 12:10Speaker 1: we are on. I really just think that this style
- 12:14Speaker 1: of golf suit step He's proven it before, he's played
- 12:16Speaker 1: well here before, and I do think he's gonna bounce
- 12:19Speaker 1: back in that approach category. So that does it. As always,
- 12:24Speaker 1: the song of the day before we get out of
- 12:25Speaker 1: here is going to be left for good by bad omens.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Go check that out. Any questions you know where to
- 12:31Speaker 1: find me, use code Boots and we will catch you
- 12:33Speaker 1: guys tomorrow. Peace out.
