Moving on to the final segment of the week then the one of the newest events on the DP World Tour the Raz Alima Championship is just a couple of days away this year’s field includes some of the biggest names in the game including three-time major Champion pory Carrington 2018 Rider Cup winning
Captain Thomas Bjorn H H between the two of them how many DP world world to war titles do you think the two of them have together I go with I don’t think it’s actually as much as you think it’s it’s an impressive enough number for two people I will say
They have less combined wins than Rory has on his own I I know I’d say between they’ve got 10 they got 15 World DP World Tour titles across three decades of playing golf unfortunately por Harington is coming back from an injury um so he actually missed the cut last
Week or yes yeah last weekend in Dubai so it’ll be good to see him back but I don’t think we have particularly high expectations for porrik I think if he makes the weekend that’ll be great but the um the the old guard are going up against a host of Rising Stars the DP
World Tour has the likes of yanak Paul Jordan Smith Alexis Patrick Tom mbin and Rasmus hogard whose brother and his twin Nikolai H won the inaugural event in 2022 Nikolai H is actually going to be over at the PGA Tour because he had one of those 10 PGA tour spots so Nikolai
Won’t even be at the tournament this year so Rasmus has a bit more of a chance to to put his name on trophy so it’s going to be a big one big one from that side then Shane Larry is he’s really really needs another big week
This week on the PGI tour he missed the cut as I mentioned earlier on but this week is the Farmers Insurance open Tory Pines and he he needs like a top 10 top 15 or a like close to a win to get himself inside the
Top 30 in the owg OR to get into uh the first couple of Signature Events he’s he’s kind of fallen off the ball a little bit but at least now he knows and like he is very very clear about what it is he needs to do he needs to get into
That top 30 to get into into the Signature Events because that is just that’s where all the money is being made really at the moment yeah and like he really has to be there like he’s too good a golfer not to be it and and like
He needs to make sure he gets gets the gou gets himself back into that list because it’s it’s a slippery slope on you miss said on those it’s it’s not it’s not good then it’s it’s hard it’s so much harder to break into that that the top echelons and then you start
Winning rer cup stuff and Etc so he needs to just get a start the fire now and really get rolling on us yeah um see like so Shane I don’t know if you listened to this a couple years ago he was on the per high performance podcast great podcast and he spoke about
Basically he he has this habit basically of going through Peaks and troughs in his career but in the same way that Rory may have like a PE Peak and trough within the same season Shane goes through like a three-year period of he’ll win come off the boil do well and
Come back and win right so that’s his like gu that’s his three-year kind of loop he won two years ago uh on the DP world tour at the British Masters didn’t win this year in 2023 on on the PGA or the DP World Tour so he really needs to
Try and just kick that slump so I guess you could look at it like following that Trend this is a year that Shane needs to or is going to win but um he he kind of just needs to he needs to bring that performance up a little bit I think
Shane’s been joined this week in California by Shamus power who had to withdraw from the AMX H he’s had a hip injury for a significant while he had before Hawaii yeah he had it before Hawaii then went to Hawaii didn’t do great withdrew so um hopefully not too
Serious because Sheamus is a good player obviously got two wins in the PGA Tour like he’s with every week that he’s injured not playing he’s just dropping down the world ranking points and it’s getting harder and harder for him to not stay on the tour he’s obviously going to
He’s fine from that perspective but to get into the Signature Events the big money events um that’s you he needs to kind of look after his hip from that perspective yeah and I think people forget actually how good Sheamus is like he’s a brilliant golfer and it’s obviously recency biased but you know
You’re not seeing him and you’re not what him you kind of it Le out but he’s he’s so he’s so good so hopefully like he’s had that hip thing a while needs to go see moss what do we need to do like tell you Mar SW is h no problem
Yeah um yeah because he yeah he he first withdrew from his first event toward the end of last season uh back in like November October November time so it’s been it’s been niggling for a while H Leon McGuire returns to the site of her very first LPGA Tour victory at the
Drive on Championship she played in the Tournament of Champions last week on the LPGA TOS the first week uh she finished tied for 12 that’s her final round 68 uh Leona is joined by Stephanie meow who will be eager to improve on a pretty good season last season like um is the
First year for last four that Stephanie didn’t have to go back to Q school she finished within the top 60 on the uh race to CM Globe Championship rankings which is great for her she did very very well um lpj tour goes through a weird
Stage now it has like two events it has like a month off and then they go off to Asia so like a like a false start yeah it’s kind of it’s weird scheduled I don’t know I mean obviously they have reasons for it but it just it
Doesn’t it doesn’t work easy on the eye but SE she’s been working extremely hard like obviously we she we F on Instagram and stuff and social media she’s she’s working putting in lots of errors on the practice which is is great to see she needs a win like I think she deserves a
Win as well she need she needs a win right so that brings us on to bed of the week I don’t know why I’m excited about this I am I had I had a bit of a shocker of a Sunday but whatever better the week
Is where Michael and I will put a Fiverr on the DP world tours action each week uh it’s not a crazy amount of money we’re doing this just for a bit of fun so if you want to play and keep track get involved we must say it is a bit of
Fun so remember please gamble responsibly um last week I backed Thor bu Allison to finish tied for 10th it looked so good for a while you it looked good yeah it looked good until until Sunday morning you know you know what’s funny said as the same when I play
Fantasy Football like we I’m in a league that we head tohe so I end up watching the other Lads players so like I’ll watch a game knowing one of the lads has a striker in it I end up kind of watching The Golf and I’m trying to find
Your guy as opposed to my guy is Johnny’s left at is he where is he going and like as he misses something I’m like get in thanks I appreciate that yeah um so yeah he he had a shock over Sunday um I said this on the live stream
Beforeand he he had to hit five provisional drives on Saturday his driving was what let him down in really really really bad way and then on the Sunday he hit one Fairway throughout the entire uh final round which is just like that is that’s abysmal like that is just
Unacceptably bad so he finished three over for the day uh four under for the tournament tied for 21st so well off the lead but like here’s his driving stats for the final round and driving accuracy 21.4% tournament average was yeah his tournament average was 48.6% like he hit less than half the fairways
For that entire tournament and that is just that’s brutal green and regulation 44.4% driving yard distance was good like he’s up there but he’s just missing every single Fairway 21.4% of um for driving accuracy that’s that’s what cost me that’s what cost me the money he was
Shock that’s going to kill the rest of your game like as as you know even with me like I’m wild off the tea so like some like it it just kills the rest of your game CU you’re not you know you’re you’re fighting you’re fighting the
Minute you get off the tea like you know yeah because like he’s you’re trying to get up and down from from crazy spot trying to make the hit the Green from crazy spots or you’re leaving yourself short and then instantly you got to get
Up and down try and save par and you can only do that for so long so um yeah that was just it was over by the by the back nine for for me and for that B I was I was sick and I was disappointed and wasn’t angry Thor just just disappointed
Yeah just disappointed in him yeah yeah you had wants to comeand he wants to come on and apologize to you on the Pod is more than welcome I’ve asked I’ve asked and that’s been that the request has been answered a couple of times and it’s always been no
No but uh you like we said earlier on you very bravely backed Roy maroy to to win each way and uh surprise surprise that one hit all right yeah okay surprise surpr you you could have backed him and you didn’t I mean surprise surprises in like we yeah no he just it
Was like cly bad you jokeing me oh yeah cuz paty power just handing money out or what like what are you talking about like there’s odds for a reason and I hammered him okay but I did say even after hammer him last week I said I guarantee I’ll probably go and win again
Because that’s what he does so I’m not having that all right you’re just bitter because I’m ahead of you by four EUR or five whatever it is okay that’s why you’re bitter I I am bitter yeah because you’re dead right you’re this is a competition between the two of us
Actually I don’t really care who the players do I just need to beat you that’s that’s all it is and you had massive mixed emotions when Rory won because you were glad Rory won then you realized Michael had them yeah but look there you go um yeah good for you congratulations
Delighted for you delighted for you so uh you you want a cool 15 quid so for the season so far you H you’re a 10 yearold in the group green which is a good forew I think I’m six H can’t even buy one point and double that 10 by the
Way no you can I’m in serious trouble that because overall I’m 6 50 ahead so you’re you’re heading by what three three and a half quid um like I said guys at the start of this this is some big money betting that we’re doing but you’re you’re but your bet this week you
Could it’s it’s a biggie this could be massive so uh if you guys watch the live show you know that we had Josh Lee on on lot Josh Le’s on on the live show to talk about the the event he was over at the hero the bider classic and he and I
Were both in agreement that Alex with Patrick is a player to watch out for so Alex finished TI for 16th at the hero by deser classic winning a very cool 111,000 Euro plus some change uh and then the last T he played in the DP World Tour was the isbs Handa Australian
Open which H Neiman won he finished tied for eighth of that his winner the challenge tour was very very very impressive so I think it’s actually just a matter of time this year until he wins himself Tommy Kev H Adrian Moran and a couple others are all boys that I think
Are going to get wins this season which I think is uh was very very good so I think this week is actually going to be Alice Fitzpatrick’s week each way 30 to one so I’ve gone for the top 10 places so potential returns of 90 quid 5 EUR at 30 to1 I like
That yeah like if that comes in you sho oh man will be we be a to buy like three points with that yeah that uh yeah so this week I I’m was C I was talk him two people I really was going to go for Rasmus again but uh I
Felt those was too early on the first bid but I kind of already picked him I thought it’s not really fair Rasmus was my second bet I will say he was he was up there Rus goes and wins now the two of us were thinking of given that’s just
It would be just AB Murphy’s law but I’m going to go for the kid on kibbon each way h four or four to W 10 places so for a five run potentially returns at 25 um hean he came 14th last week you know I thought he I thought he was really solid
I think really consistent I think his back night on Sunday four birdies um he just looked in control he looks kind of Cal composed I also think the fact he’s got his new clubs his new Callaway clubs is making a big probably Adam yardage didn’t know he had probably you know was
Wedges are spinning a little bit more um yeah so I think Tom kimin I think as you said he’s gonna have a kind of a big year this year we spoke about him before um I think he’s in a in a good place so I think definitely a top 10 finish him
Hopefully kick on a little bit higher but I think that’s a I’m G to go for the kid that’s good yeah H I really like that bet that’s one of those ones where you kind of have me conflicted as well I’d love to see it but for for our game
I really wouldn’t yeah or is this like you know Tom’s got a putt for a birdie for 10th Place finish and if he misses it he comes 11th he misses it oh Jesus that would be seconding listen if he comes anywhere in the top 10 I’ll be
I’ll be thrilled for for for him less so for you but if he wins I’ll proberly be be torn oh yeah if he comes in smokes in on the Sunday oh it’ be unbelievable yeah H I think I think it’ll be great it’ll be really good tournament to be a very different
Tournament obviously now the um the two big tournaments of this swing are kind of done so a lot of the big names are gone H Rasmus hogard is probably the favorite for the tournament I’d say that’s yeah safe off bed Rasmus is is the favorite to to win that um it’s
Going to be good watching though like we said um I love waking up here on the morning watching the golf straight away having a cup of coffee it’s just it’s it’s a it’s a very nice way to start the week to be honest with you yeah you’re lucky like I’m in school
But you can just sit at home and pretend to be working you know move the mouse misses you’re actually working when you’re watching the golf oh no it’s work I’m I’m doing this for a client uh you know I don’t get that luxury but uh there’s still some there’s a lot of good
People like I think Sean Crocker in it again Jam Donaldson’s in the field youan Ferguson uh friender the Pod Dyan for Ted’s there as well um look at he goes uh so I think like there’s G there’s still a good few big hitters um and really interesting to see how Lads are
Are are playing yeah i’ be really intrigued um to see how Shawn does in in particular just because we we know him a little bit um he spoke about how he just doesn’t like not like the Emirates Golf Club he says he really likes it but
Really doesn’t at the same time or I guess he likes it but it doesn’t like him H as a golf course so hopefully he has a good bounce back after a miscut this week um yeah I think that’s it like we said guys we have Kenny Palace from
The links diary coming on later on this week we’ve got an interview with ARA Wilson uh interview with M lman and then plenty more uh tour tour golf and tour professionals coming on the podcast over the next few weeks and um golf season has propably started I’m very excited
