• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Ball system's going clear.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Good evening, three down, three rounds down and complete from Memphis.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: UH scores were not as low today in terms of
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: mega pop rounds. Obviously Sam Burns got out there and
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: tortured up. But as the golf course gets a little
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: firm by like the minute, it feels like by the
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: hour and preview sneak peek, it's gonna be the same
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: way tomorrow. UH fairways are becoming more at a premium.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Getting the ball up and now is becoming more at
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: a cremium and just playing from that confined area of
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: just ball strike ball strike, say in order, fairways, greens,
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: fairways green is becoming more in order. It's not playing
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: like a Major, but we're not seeing too many crazy
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: rounds like we saw in on Thursday and Friday. I'm
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: kind of loving how it's shapen up for the weekend.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: We're in good position. Didn't have the best Showdown round
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: in Showdown Day in round and three. We had a
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: much better Round one and two. Hopefully we can bounce
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: back tomorrow. And like I said, we didn't see as
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: many lights out rounds like we saw earlier to start
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: the week. So let's bring the screen up, Let's talk
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: about what we got going so far. Sam Burns, Tom Kim,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: and Seawoo Kim all shot rounds of a sixty five
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: or better. This is the first day. We've only had
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: three rounds of sixty five or better so far. We've
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: seen some better scoring in round one and two in
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: terms of top end scoring, but it's really no different
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: in terms of how the guys are doing it. This
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: is a golf course that we've seen so many times,
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: so many years, and the formula of approach putting driving
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: accuracy more than driving distance. But Sam burns't necessarily that
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: necessarily lighted up in terms of driving accuracy. He kind
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: of made everything he looked at and had some really
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: solid approach play, but the key factor was the approach play.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: No matter what, every single day, the guys who are
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: lighting it up are doing it in terms of approach,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: and I am hopping on a a little.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Tonight.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: The leaders have a few holes left. Scotty Scheffler is
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: making his charge, making his little charge. He's currently got
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: a nice little two shot leads. Hopefully he can turn
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: it out for us tomorrow. But because you know, we
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: talked about it on Monday, single bullet Scotti. Hopefully it's
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: our third single bullet Scotty of the year pays off
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: one time. We are definitely in the green on Scotty,
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: so we will go for it. Let's talk about those
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: guys again. It was solid approach play that that differentiated.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: There was top scoring, and I know we talked about
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: it earlier in the week, but looking back at the
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: winners around or the winners and the top performers around
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: TPC south Wind, it's guys who are spiking on approach.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: It's guys that are gaining four plus strokes on approach.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: And we're seeing that again. We're seeing that you're not
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: getting four strokes in a week, but I mean in
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: a round. But the top scorers are the guys who
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: are doing it on approach.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: So let's find some more of those golfers.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: But before we get there, let's look at the weather,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: the scoring and everything in between. So whether for tomorrow,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: this is probably the most I've ever seen four straight
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: days of similar weather that I could really ever remember.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: It's been the same temperature, the same wind direction, the
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: same approximate gust and steady winds from Thursday to Sunday,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: and we're not getting any overnight rain as we can see,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: so the golf course is going to continue to get firmer.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: Playing from the fairway I think is at a premium
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: as the rough gets a little bit thicker maybe, and
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: I know there's avenues and routes to work the ball
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: up from the rough, but you want to be able
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: to really control it from the fairway.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's not a hot take.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: And we're seeing guys, we're seeing the driving accuracy and
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: approach play short of the top.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: So that is what I'm going to be looking for
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: for tomorrow.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: The scoring so far for round three not as easy
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: as it has been in rounds one and two. Like
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: I said, point three in the morning, point one in
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: the afternoon, and like we've kind of predicted, there's been
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: no wave splits to find this week, no waste.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: It's because it's a certainly a seventy minter field.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Guys are going out close enough in relation to one
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: each other one another, so not really looking for wave splits.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: And as we look back at the weather, it's the
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: same all day. It is the same all day.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: I will say the one thing I am looking for
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: in terms of split for tomorrow is I'm going to
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: be chasing mainly golfers who are around the top twenty.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I know we kind of touch on this every Sunday.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Do I want to go with Mega? Chase those guys
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: to shoot that sixty three and post that back for
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: top top ten. I don't see many being out there tomorrow.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: I know obviously Sam Burns did it today.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: But am I going to try to.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Put a lineup of three to four golfers outside of
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: the top twenty and try to find that needle in
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: a haystack? I don't think I'm going to. If I
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: miss it, I can live with it. I'm going to
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: try to find guys who are already in the top twenty,
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: not too many strokes outside of the top and find
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: guys to back door backdoor it, but not back door
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: sixty two, back door it with the sixty five sixty
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: six and get those placement points. Because there's not the
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: most birdies out here this week, like we see way
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: more birdies in a normal week. This golf course is
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: by no means easy, like less than twenty other is
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: gonna win. And I know that's nothing crazy, but you
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, This is not a Megabirdi Fest,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: and there's not that many birdies out there. So staying
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: with guys within striking distance to make that birdy average
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: of three to five or even less and still back
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: door that top ten is what I.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Am looking for for tomorrow.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: So that's kind of what I'm chasing for stats is
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: the same stuff that we've been seeing. Where's driving, accuracy, approach,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: find that spike cutter. So we're gonna look for golfers
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: who are doing good things on approach, doing good things
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: in terms of accuracy, but that's at the end of
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: the world, and then finding golfers who have room to
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: grow on the putting greens. So let's talk about contest
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: selections the site and then we will find our golfers.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: We will find our golf or so in terms of
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: contest selection for round four, we're gonna go with another
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: single entry. We're gonna go with PGA Tour Showdown twenty
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: k long drive, one hundred dollars single entry, three k
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: up top and that ten percent is all the way
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: at eighteenth place pays out forty seven of two hundred
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: and twenty two entries. Scotti for bird low, Scotty for
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: bird low I like this payout structure because a ten
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: percent mark is at the eighteenth eighteenth place. So if
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: you're not a golfer or sorry, I know you're not
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: a PJO or golfer, if you're not a player who
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: generally mince top ten, top five finishes, but you're in
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: the green, this is a great contest for you to
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: get into.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: So PGA Tour twenty k long drive.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: And then the site. We have a ton of showdown content.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: We have the Showdown projections, we have the Showdown Stone,
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: and we have the slate station. I'm not gonna cut
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: the state the slate station because it is already done,
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: hot and popping for you guys. So if you watch
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: in this video, it will be live for you. So
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: you're gonna go to join the nation.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: You're going to fly that flag as always. Oh, it's a.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Little bit of a little site up, a little site
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: update here.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Maybe I had never seen that screen before.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: So if you want every single sport All Access Plus optimizer,
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: get that sabers. You just want the golf PGA plus Optimizer,
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: use that code boots.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: That code boots will get you ten percent off. If
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: you've never signed up before, good time. To sign up.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: It is the playoffs, some fun contest probably coming next
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: week for a BMW championship. So get in code boots
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: all that information and if you're joining for showdown, use
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: my slate plan. Use the optimized sorry, use the stone
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: and use the projections. Sprinkle a few names from each
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: into the optimizer. Have the mathematicians, have the elite brains
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: of the optimizer builders. Build you a lineup, build you
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: multiple lineups. So that is what I would suggest. Don't
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: just lean on one thing. I like leaning on multiple avenues,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: maybe two avenues. Get unique with it and build some lineups,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: get a little different. So optimizer is where we're going
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: to go.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Code Boots. Now for the fun.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Part, we're going to look for golfers that check boxes
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: for us. So bringing up the stats, bringing up the
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: leaderboard so far in round three, rounds one, two, and three,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be kind of searching from this like top
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: twenty three mark and below.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: So right here, I like this profile.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Plus one point seven to one off the t, even
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: on approach and plus one point two on the putting greens.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: This golfer is telling me that they are hitting, they're
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: doing enough off the t they're putting well enough, and.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: They're about a zero one approach.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: A zero one approach, it means they're doing some good things,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: some bad things, but they have room to gain. They
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: have room to gain on in the putting greens, on
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: the putting greens and on approach. That is Xander Shroffley.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: I know he's three under, he's a what is he yes,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: three strokes back to the top ten, the four strokes
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: back to the top ten. He can shoot a sixty six,
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: a sixty five and back door. I love that profile
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: a lot. I kind of stay away from this JJ
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: spawn who is losing two strokes on approach. I kind
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: of stay away from this this profile right here, even
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: though it is solid approach, it's it's kind of a
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: it could be a ceiling of performance already from Jackson
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Coyban terms of approach. I se him getting much more
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: than five strokes on approach, maybe another stroke, but I
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: don't want to trust that putter.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: I like this profile.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: This is ceiling performance by any means from Ricky Fowler.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: Only he's getting four strokes on approach, which isn't only
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: but it's solid and he's only getting one stroke on
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: the greens. That means he does have room to grow.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: That means he does have room to make some hay
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: in terms of approach and putting. I do like that
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: profile a lot. Love what we're seeing from Mat fitz Patrick.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: A steady three rounds, only one under today, kind of
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: just working his way along with the room to gain
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: an approach, with the room to gain on the greens,
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: and he's not driving it that well. We know Matt
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Fitzpatrick is a great driver of the golf ball, so
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: I'm loving that profile. I will look for a few
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: profiles down the board because we can't just scale for
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: every golfer who's already inside the top twenty. The fact
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: that Cameron Young is gaining about two strokes short game
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: and losing almost three strokes ball striking is concerning, But
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: for elites like that, I'm okay with chasing some poor
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: ball striking. Cameron Young has been doing nothing but amazing
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: things in terms of the ball striking. I don't really
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: see him being shut out in terms of the ball striking.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: So I don't mind buying Cameron Young right now. Even
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: though he's only even par through three rounds T forty one,
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: he should be able to find something with the ball striking.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Absolutely love Max Holmer as well.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: I'll bring his profile up. Maxholma is currently in a
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: t for thirty eight. He's gaining about a stroke and
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: a half ball striking, losing one point eight on the greens.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: But maxholm is a streaky putter. One point eight in
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: three rounds is not the end of the world. I
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: believe he's probably had maybe one positive putting day and
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: probably maybe one or two rough ones. So let's take
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: a look at Maxima's profile to get that complete details.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: Round three he was Round three, he was minus one,
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: Round two he was minus point three, and so it's
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: been in zero zero and then.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: A bad one in round three. That tells me he
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: can find something in terms of the ball. In terms
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: of the putting, it's not the end of the world.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: I don't mind that profile. Then back up the board,
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: I want to see what Russell Henley did in round
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: three in terms of approach, he was the one golfer
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: we were on yesterday didn't really pay off for us,
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: But can we go back to him in round four?
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Russell Henley, he did't shoot three unders, so it wasn't
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: the worst worst profile, but it wasn't the best. He's
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: losing two strokes on approach, but the approach play is
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: not there yet. I still don't think he gets shut
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: out this poorly in terms of the proch like you're
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: telling me Russell Henley is gaining second inaccuracy, seventh and putting,
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: but he's his best skill set arguably is the iron,
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: and he's losing this many.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: He really really like. I know we're.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: Chasing the good ball striking, but I really do not
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: see Russell Henley getting shut out. So short Field going
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: to keep that profile small. Sorry that keep that uh
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: not profile player player core small. We don't want to
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: get too many golfers. I will give you one more, though.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: I will give you the one golfer that I am
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: on for tomorrow. It's a golfer who had a really
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: really nice round one. It's golf, but everyone wants to
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: see six succeed, and it is a golfer by the
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: name of Jordan Speed. Jordan Speed currently is in a
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: tie for let's see befo where is he? I guess
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: we can't type sp Jordan Speed in a tie for thirteenth.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: He's plenty enough in terms of in striking distance he
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: is doing some things well. He's gaining strokes currently in
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: every single profile off the tee, approach, around the green, putting,
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: hitting enough fairwies, not doing anything perfectly, which is fine.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: That is a profile that I love to play at
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: a at a T for thirteen. He needs a nice
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: round four to back to that top ten to make
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: sure he's around for the next few weeks. And we
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: know Jordan Speed has great spikeability in every category and
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: if he's playing from the outside looking in, he's going
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: to be a free for all hopefully and fire at
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: passively aggressive. I just love his spike ability. I love
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: what he did in round one and I'm willing to
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: buy it again in round four. He's in the seven
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: k range. You can basically play him with anybody and
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: he's not gonna garner a crazy amount of ownership.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: So jordan'sped is the one golfer that I am on
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: for round four.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: And as always, the song of the day before we
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: get out of here, some Australian metalcore for you, because
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: why not, We're gonna go with a new song by
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: Northland called cut It. Check it out, let me know
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: what you think, and I will be back Monday afternoon
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: with the BMW Championship Review.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Thank you guys for tuning in. I'll catch you guys.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Then peace out.
