Match Big Drive energy live Monday winter Edition we have to talk about Scotty sheffler again which used to be a common theme discussing winners on the PGA tour but it hasn’t been in a while and I’m actually excited to talk about it a little bit to stick it to a few people

Uh or one specific person on our Tik Tok that basically told us he wasn’t a superstar we don’t love the guy but [ __ ] confirmed Superstar call spade a spade the dude’s the biggest star on the PJ tour exactly we’re also going to talk about the opposite field event Puerto

Rico open Bryce Garnett got a huge win for his career uh something that’s not talked about a lot because everybody’s watching the Arnold Palmer or watching live Hong Kong but even though probably not a ton of people watching that only because of the timing uh it’s always

Tough to have an event you know other than the the Open Championship nobody watches events that are three in the morning uh unless it’s for your guy your specific guy or your friend cam Smith yes our guy well he’s our guy but he’s not like our guy our guy he’s our guy

Like he’s not we don’t know him are you going finish this intro yes uh and we’re going to shout out Abraham aner for his win at said live Hong Kong all right let’s te It Up Scotty Sheffer back in the winner circle again it’s been 51 weeks

According to [ __ ] all right I got to pull this Tik Tock out talk talk for a second while I get this guy yes Scotty shler wins Arnold Palmer um he’s won this golf tournament previously so I think this is uh the third time somebody’s won multiple Arnold Palmer’s

Joining tiger and somebody else I don’t remember but uh very tough week on the golf course so it it is fitting that Scotty uh goes out and wins on a very very challenging course um but let’s just be real let’s let’s be let’s just be honest let’s just be real uh that

Golf tournament was a complete snoozer on Sunday uh basically by the middle of the front nine you knew that Scotty Sheffer was going to run away with it at one point what are you are you laughing about something on our Tik Tok correct I’m here um it’s nice that you’re a

Participant also but uh it looked like will zotor was going to run away with a thing and Spencer was sick because he didn’t pick him um so at one point in the middle of Saturday zalatoris had it to like 11 under yep um rolling yeah he

Was he uh had the round of the day going on Saturday just striking the [ __ ] out of the ball making everything with that W wand putter um and then made a few bogeys down the stretch and ultimately faltered on Sunday and the cream Rose to the top with Scotty sher’s ball striking

And he actually the putter got hot on the back nine Saturday into Sunday and that is ultimately the difference like if he is hot with the putter he’s not losing on the PGA tour um he’s just that good Tia green his ball striking is unbelievable so uh but yes we had

Somebody on our Tik Tok tell us that Scotty shuffler was not a superstar um and that’s just flat out not true at all so now he’s won what six times in three years um seven this is a seven okay seven in three years um so if that isn’t

A superstar I don’t know what is you know if you’re on Pace for two wins a season two and uh a third wins a season as of right now and I I guarantee he’s going to win again this year that’s that’s really without a question um um

But yeah the dude is is Bonafide of a superstar on the PJ tour right now as they get 100% so here’s the comment uh this was from a Tik Tok a couple weeks ago where you were actually talking about there’s no in between no middle class of the PGA Tour anymore and we’ll

Actually get into some comments that a few players that are in the upper class no shock here upper class people want only to be around upper class people but your Tik Tok was basically describing that the PG tour is a bunch of guys that have won a ton and are superstars or

It’s Journeymen that you’ve never heard of that are winning for the first time now that doesn’t necessarily immediately Elevate them to an upper class but there’s a story behind why where how long it’s taken them to get here etc etc and the the best part about this so This

Guy’s picture is the dawn um with a [ __ ] up nose so some type of filter let me see this the name is Tainted meat beater so tainted meat beater said Scotty hasn’t won in 51 weeks nice take and I said he’s won six times in the last two seasons guarantee he wins

Another two more three more this season I think this is actually worth us doing like a reply to the comment should scen today yeah and just reply to the comment post that right on Tik Tok uh we’re coming for you tainted meat beater and then he said his last win was the 23

Players 51 weeks ago nothing you said disproved that and I said your statement was true and so is ours he’s W an average of three times a year since 2022 and tainted meat beater himself actually turned me into liking Scotty sheffler and rooting for him this weekend to

Prove a [ __ ] point yeah I mean when you’re on one side of an argument the enemy of my enemy is my friend so tainted meat beater is now Public Enemy Number One and Scotty shuffler is our [ __ ] boy now I still I just look at the guy’s face it’s still just a

Punchable face uh shout out Vic Lombardi the beard okay you yes he I know looks so much more his beard he looks so much more likable with a beard so much less soft so much less Buzz Light Eerie like just a little bit more manly like we

Were talking about that yesterday like I don’t understand grown men that don’t like want to have any facial hair and if you don’t that’s not your fault like I know grown men that can’t grow it well yeah to me not having facial hair would be because you can’t grow it

Or your job doesn’t allow it or you play for the New York Yankees yeah or work at Denver Country Club yes shout out Cory Thurman um but no I just he definitely looks more manly but he also looks like even more of a frumpy Grandpa uh with his [ __ ] beard than

He did before and then you throw that red Arnold Palmer cardigan on him and I actually tweeted this this will go on our tweets that got No Love Actually it did get a little love so it can’t uh can’t go on the tweets got no love but I

Was like he looks like he’s about to throw on the air monarchs and go for a a nice afternoon jaunt through the neighborhood um and that’s just the vibe that Scotty gives off in general like you know why he grew his or when they asked him about the beard he said it’s

Just pure laziness I’m like you’re such a Hardo dude you’re such a bad boy forgot to shave your beard God how [ __ ] edgy are you dude go eat your popcorn and watch your Jesus movies on the couch like holy [ __ ] sorry I probably just got I just went a little

Bit harder than I needed to but go read your scripture dude [ __ ] I that just bugs me yeah he the picture of him with the red cardigan on is is it’s so fitting and winning the iron Palmer Invitational now he’s wore the red cardigan twice and he is cemented his

Status as basically the best player on the PGA 2our because I think some people obviously T tmbb tained meat beater that’s what we’ll call him tmbb was questioning it do think a lot of other people wondered if it was a flash in the pan type of two years because we’ve seen

That time and time again and we’ve seen guys compete at I mean we we won’t dive too deep into the full swing but we started watching full swing last night and they’re showing Ricky Fowler and they’re talking about Ricky Fowler getting he was top five in all four

Majors one like his second full season on on the PGA tour so we’ve seen it time and time again where a player comes everybody’s like oh my God we think never going to stop coming and then he stops coming and he goes off into the abyss and so Scotty you know being 51

Weeks without a win was a little uncharacteristic of him but it was due to everybody knows it if you don’t the guy can’t putt or couldn’t Putt and this week he gained 1.09 Strokes on the field putting he was like fourth or fifth what

Did he gain T de gree in like 17 uh three okay for the entire event but just on Sunday he gained 3.27 Strokes T to green and 3.68 strokes putting wow well so what I will say though is we you talked about you know players are

Flashing the pan they win a time or two and then they kind of fall off but the one thing with Scotty Sheffer that sets him apart is his ball striking has been unwavering these last three years like he is a Premier Ball striker in the

World I would say let’s off the top of your head let’s name our like five best ball Strikers on the PGA Tour live tour slash any tour like gun to your head you got to name five dudes that can hit it out of a paper bag I’m going Scotty sheffler will zures John

ROM um where am I I just had another one off the top of my head I’d say probably Brooks kka brooksie Just Hits it so [ __ ] good um and then oh who else is on the are you going to contribute anything uh yeah I’d say like my guys

Like Jason day is one of those guys oh my God that’s disgusting dude the guy just you’re forgetting what he was what he W I’m talking about right now I’m not talking about 15 years ago otherwise I’d have Phil Mickelson on the list like oh shout out to Phil Mickelson shooting

[ __ ] 81 the first round of Liv Hong Kong on a 70 6700 yard the only player worse than Anthony Kim yeah well dude AK we’ll get into that but fired a all 66 or or no 65 uh Kyle Meer we haven’t seen ball striking numbers like this since

Tiger exactly the ball striking is has been there and it’s going to be there um and honestly the fact that Scotty’s swing is so unique to him is I think even more repeatable because it’s not just a super generic you know one-off swing that everybody else looks like so

I think it’s more repeatable to him because it’s his own custom you know homemade swing that isn’t n super cookie cutter like a lot of those guys out there um and actually I saw a comment oh and oh that was who I was forgetting Waco Neeman I think he’s a top five ball

Striker in the world right now um well when we’re saying right now do we mean players that are act because right now holy [ __ ] Rory maoy in his career is a I’m talking right now talking this second today and you mentioned [ __ ] uh Brooks Kea who he won a major last year year

Yeah last year okay I’m yes I’m talking about as of recent when’s the last time Rory won anything uh two years ago three years ago ma a major 10 years ago pipe it down dude okay I do have you know you know what he’s the best in the world at is

Making comments about everybody else playing golf when he should worry about his own [ __ ] golf well in full swing they kind of divulged on that and it turned me a little back on to Rory side a bit so I’m you’re turned on to Rory I’m slightly back back on the train okay

How about Tony fow is that a good answer for you no Tony fow is not a good ball Striker he’s a yeah he’s a good ball Striker okay Xander shl no he hooks the [ __ ] out of it [ __ ] big pushes big hooks just a big pivot stall at the

Bottom just stallin flip old school style I mean he does hit it a long ways but Xander’s not up there I would say cam Smith is probably closer to being up there that dude and you’re thinking about he’s like one of the best Putters in the world but you’re thinking results

You’re thinking I’m just talking ey test like you watch him swing it and I guess then you’d put Rory in there 100% um but his T his his driving game is unbelievable like Rory might go down as the best driver of all time did you see

Him hit a 401 yard Par Four yes that is the first okay so yeah on number 10 at uh Bay Hill it had never been driven before in what the 30-year history of this golf tournament and Rory did drive it actually could we get that video up of Justin Tom

Marissa um sorry to bother you uh just I’m just [ __ ] with you um so Justin Thomas this a different one Mitchell this is Mitchell’s fault because this is yes this one so no no you’re fine um but so on on Sunday and it was just very windy all week um at

The Arnold Palmer which makes this golf course that much tougher but these dudes taking an insane line on number 10 because it is a 400 yd hole and no that’s can you scroll down just there we go um so look at where he’s aiming right

Now the Fairway is about 70 yards to the left and he just hits it like what [ __ ] stands right there like good thing this wasn’t Grant Horvat he’d have a hospital bill on his hands [ __ ] Bobby Margaritas out there um but yeah that that line is absolutely

Insane and that is probably about where Rory aimed on that hole too um so that just kind of goes to show you it wasn’t like crazy 30 40 mph windy because then they would have pulled everybody off the golf course because it would have been

Too hard for him um but it was just windy enough to make them hit it like 380 400 yards and yeah Rory Rory is a still a premier driver on the PJ tour but dude if we’re going to dip into the full swing talk a little bit Rory after

The first two majors last year was talking about a full reboot and reset like a full swing change a full overhaul and in all honesty a little technicality here but Rory’s movement and how deep his hands get around him at the top of the back swing is very effective for

Driving the golf ball but it’s not very effective and it’s even effective for the long irons but when your hands are that far around you and I’ve watched him hit short wedges and short irons his hands get way too deep around him and he ends up swinging too far from the inside

And when you see Rory even hit a quote unquote straight shot he’s hitting a massive push because I guarantee you Rory’s path with a short iron is probably five degrees inside out if he’s aiming straight down his Target line so that is where Rory’s struggles really do come from is his his

Overuse of the the Deep hands and that’s where I mean he’s played good golf obviously from there but that is what he’s ultimately struggling with is his hands don’t get high enough in the top of the back swing and he’s not in a neutral enough spot to get that path

Enough left or down even down the line you know it’s his path is too far right especially with the wedges with the IR the short irons and that’s really I mean when you hit as far as Rory and as straight as Rory once again one of the

Best drivers ever you you’re going to have a lot of flip wedges a lot of short irons in so by that mathematical stand from that mathematical standpoint he’s got the most opportunities the furthest down in the middle of the Fairway why is he not winning more can you answer me

That he’s probably not good at hitting wedges yeah wedges and putting like he so that is kind of like his full I just gave a full Rory mroy breakdown of why he’s struggling Rory if you need some help give me a shout um I’ll be cheaper than whatever teacher you got going

Right now I’ll still charge you a shitload but I’ll make I’ll I’ll quote you right under where your current teacher at Price is Right the the uh the new teacher spin the wheel what are you oh the price price price is writing them is like going 3.99 when somebody’s bets

400 okay I thought you were hitting me with the Bob Barker the price is wrong [ __ ] oh no I wouldn’t hit you with that speaking of putting though and Rory being a bad putter Scotty turned into a good putter with some help from Rory not necessarily but there was a few funny

Tweets around it Rory a couple weeks ago did say that Scotty should try the Mallet Putter and the Mallet putter is something that I can identify with I don’t think I’ll ever go back to a blade in my life and I do think there’s there’s some staunt people that have

Played golf for a long good quote unquote good golf for them uh for a long time in their lives that have the blade Putter and cons consistently stick with the blade putter but I don’t think I’ll ever go back to a blade as long as I’m playing trying to play decent golf well

Dude in all honesty like I’m not calling Scotty Sheffer stupid but for him being the best golfer in the world why does somebody else need to tell you to try a different putter like either you’re just that ball-headed or you’re that dumb that you’ve never considered trying a

Different Putter and you keep trying the same thing over and over and over again and not getting any results and you wonder why you’re putting like [ __ ] and you haven’t tried anything else and then Rory all of a sudden tells you to try a mallet and you act like it’s this new

Thing they just invented from outer space when it’s literally been around since the beginning of time and there is like traditionalist when we were growing up there were kids and there’s still dudes that are like I will never play anything but a blade and it’s dumb because performance-wise it really gives

You zero Advantage it’s the same dudes that walk up to the first t with the blade irons and you’re like why are you hitting those and they’re like well I want to shape it I’m like you need to shape it one way and it’s not the way you’re shaping it currently like it’s

Just an ego thing like it sounds dumb but putting with a blade somehow thinks makes people think that they’re they look better than they are but it really gives you zero advantage to putt with a a blade versus a mallet 100% yeah it makes no sense it’s a more consistent

Stroke you’re getting away with and I think the biggest thing with Scotty is he’s he’s getting away with the mistakes he makes on a simple putt which is to the like everyday golfer it seems insane and and even to me that’s like kind of dabbled in the you know the teaching

Game and obviously trying to get help people get better at golf it it does seem insane that you’re not hitting The Sweet Spot on a putter or your face is so inconsistent on a putting stroke which is a simple back and through very small movement uh shouldn’t be a lot of

Room for error there actually is and when you get to the level of top PGA t or player you have to be even that much more precise and there’s actually a couple funny quotes from the guys who were tied with Scotty sheffler going into Sunday one was Windam Clark and he

Said it would be borderline unfair if he starts putting really good said Clark I never want to wish ill on anybody but if he starts playing putting positives each week it’s going to be really hard to beat him and then Shane Lowry said there’s only probably a couple players

In the world that can live with him playing like that not sure I’m one of them I’m obviously just disappointed I didn’t put any pressure on him early and this is where I believe it was the waste management this year that Scotty Sheffer if he he he

Pretty much is like a a boomer bus guy now he has a ton of top 10 I’m not saying but when you you know he’s going to win a tournament when it gets to Saturday Sunday and he’s up there and because he’s got the aura that everybody

Like oh [ __ ] Scotty’s here you know if he and that’s why I was shocking this year in the at the waste management because he was up there he’s going at guys like Nick Taylor who’s a great player but not no you know there’s there’s very few players that even have

The confidence to go against him oneon-one much L beat him I would say John ROM is probably one of the only dudes in the world right now him maybe walking Neeman um you know there’s a couple dudes in the world that would feel good about going toe-to-toe

With Scotty Sheffer um and I almost feel like it’s kind of funny but Windam is like right underneath where Scotty sheffler is in my opinion and obviously still in that top tier PGA Tour players but it almost feels like Scotty’s like windham’s final boss because he’s just

Such like a and we’ve talked about wiam at extent you know because we played golf with him in the high school years but winam has kind of exposed himself as a bit of an [ __ ] at this point um and so to see Scotty like just Dominate

Wendam and then be so much nicer than he is and so much like less confrontational is actually funny um I I would almost equate Scotty like Loosely to Nicole yic because he’s just a dude that stays out of the drama that doesn’t really you know comment on who should be on tour or

How many players should be on tour and he just goes out and he I mean he’s more concerned with his own game like everybody else should be Rory um oh god that actually made me cough uh excuse me but Scotty’s just that dude that just chills worries about

Himself plays really good golf plays better golf than anybody when he when he’s putting well and uh yeah windham’s like looking up at Scotty like godamn it like I mean but let’s be real so can we move on to Windham are you good with that yeah that’s where I was going to go

Next okay so windham’s won what three times in the last year like year you got like he’s basically a top five player in the world right now and he probably will at one point depending on how Scotty plays going forward he might be the number one player in the world here in

The next you know8 to 12 weeks um but the comments that he made were just out of pocket and then that comes on the heels of uh Saturday just acting a complete fool on the golf course and it was almost like I was having flashbacks to high school and I was watching him

[ __ ] freak out um so Marissa we pull that video up of of WAM and I actually watched this live and it cracked me up um so wam I think this is on like 11 or 12 on Saturday uh he gets catches a shitty lie in the you know the front

Area of the green um in a baby divot and literally like if you look at his back swing on the actual hit not the he would have been better off taking a that big of a back swing that he took on the the uh [ __ ] shot right into the ground um

But he takes like a a three qu or you know a quarter way back and expects to somehow get that ball to the the green uh maybe because he thought it was just going to come out low and running but uh yeah that that was definitely a tough look for wendam and

Everybody’s been there like everybody has taken a full swing into a divot that really didn’t deserve it and just taken a huge chunk of Earth but when you’re on national TV and you do that [ __ ] you’re going to catch some flak for it yeah well so he caught Flack for that and the

The Antics but also in an interview on the tour this was actually started by Rory Moy but Rory said something to the effect of the tour needs to be a little leaner have less guys competing for you know less tour cards and less guys competing the best of the best Etc and

They asked Windam that same question and he said it it would make it he said I think it’d be amazing if our tour tour tour t uh was a 100 guys and then the quote tweets and some of the comments were hilarious and so this guy uh dste

311 Windham Clark is the worst kind of piece of [ __ ] didn’t break through until he was 30 years old and now that his status is safe wants to [ __ ] over as many others as possible dude is a Despicable scumbag if you weren’t sure who the bad guys were this is exhibit a

And then some of the other comments uh didn’t he also want 100 million to go to live yes and they only offered him 50 and then so he pretended to start caring about Legacy um well so then I posted a a Tik Tok a green screen about Windham yesterday and

Got a lot of um what a [ __ ] total lack of respect for the tournament in the golf course um and then I got this idiot that see and okay so can we discuss real quick what side are you on of the rule of being able to take it out of a divot

So I’m on the side that I think there’s somebody up way smarter than me about the rules of golf that needs to figure it out but I also know that it opens up the C worms it opens up is about is not worth it you want to play a six hour

Round of golf so every dude can call a rules official over and identify that that’s a divot and that’s not a divot or that’s a you know that is where and we got this comment on our Tik Tok he said who cares the PJ tour should fix these

Stupid rules all the balls in the Fairway should get a drop if they are in a divot um yeah in a perfect world probably but the can of worms like you said that it would open is just something you could not come back from like there’s so many things that you

Bring into play and it’s just the rub of the green dude like hypothetically uh you know pardon the pun um but you’re going to hit great shots and end up in shitty spots that is golf that’s always been Golf and that will continue to be golf so [ __ ] P put your big girl

Pants on and don’t be wrecking Bay Hill at [ __ ] Arnold Palmer’s rolling over in his grave watching that [ __ ] Arnold Palmer had respect smok cigarettes or Cardigans had respect for the golf course created the [ __ ] greatest drink of all time not alcoholic but greatest drink of all time well you

Throw vodka in there it’s goated yeah isn’t that called the John Daly well yeah technically he trademarked it but yes the Arnold Palmer is probably top five non-alcoholic beverages of all time yes the top one top two not two beverage of all time is K’s light if you need a

Minute to chill chill we always know that you can bust out a c’s light I’ve got this beautiful like CS Rodeo shirt on I will say the C’s merch is almost as good as their beer like the merch is unbelievable yeah I’ve got a bunch of KS

Light merch uh K’s light is the by far our favorite beer we’ve always been drinking it on the golf course they’ve got the Twist Off cans that are perfect you throw six of them in a cooler uh we got the bucket right here in front of us

With little bottles I’m not a big bottle guy in general uh I don’t know why it just like feels like it’s harder to drink out of there’s something I like about having like three fingers on the neck of a bottle though and just like tossing it back like that kind of hits

For me there the way you drink it also like I think has an effect why is that funny Marissa let’s hear it three fingers on the neck no no comment no she’s making fun of me oh for what for the way I drink it oh like cuz I

Probably just like kind of like tight lip it a little bit and try to not get wow uh I was just laughing I think the show’s great but this this is how I drink a this is how I hold a bottle and I drink a bottle of beer if you’re not

On the YouTube check out the YouTube no see you’re some [ __ ] Barbarian that full hands it and like yeah who holds the neck of it like that that grown men that know how to drink oh I think we’re gonna pink up yes exactly I can oh wow your pinky is your last

Finger in case you were wondering but get CO’s light delivered straight to your door with instacart by going to cers light.com dnvr celebrate responsibly cers Brewing Company Golden Colorado also want to tell you guys about our friends over at bet 365 before we talk about Aban win on the live tour

Picks more on the live tour you must be 21 plus to use bet 365 and physically located in Colorado please gamble responsibly if you were someone you know has a gambling problem and once help call or text 800 Gambler all right let’s talk a little bit about uh the other PGA

Tour event before we talk about Liv and the Puerto Rico open of course opposite field event but a great chance for somebody that’s fighting for their tour card to end up getting it and that’s what happened with Bryce Garnett he made 720k which uh going back to what we talked

About Scotty shuffler made $4 million Arnold Palmer onc course earnings for his entire career were $3.6 million so Scotty Sheffer in his own tournament in Arnold Palmer’s own tournament made more money than Arnold Palmer made on the golf course specifically in his entire career pretty insane but cool for Bryce

Garnett to go down to Puerto Rico and collect 720k also has his tour card for another two years which is huge for a guy like that even though Windam Clark doesn’t want him to be there now Bryce Garnett’s going to be on the tour for two more

Years yeah this is actually his first PJ tour start of the season um so and there’s been a lot of scuttlebutt um I’ve been using that word a lot lately I like it um there’s been a lot of scuttlebutt about all these lower level tour guys not being able to get starts

Because they’re getting pushed out of all these exclusive events the what are what are they called again I [ __ ] this up every time uh the elevated no yeah elevated okay they’re called Signature okay their signature this year sorry um so all these dudes like Bryce Garnett’s a 10 plus year veteran um I’ve

Been hearing his name for forever but this was legitimately the first start of his year with a PGA Tour card so a lot of these lower level dudes are kind of getting fed up there’s an interview with Rafa compos like a couple weeks ago where he was like I flat out don’t feel

Like I’m a part of the PJ tour like I have my tour card but there’s so many limited starts that you can make now because a lot of these fields are restricted to a certain amount of players a certain ranking and it’s like that I mean all these guys talking about

Moving the tour to 100 guys well for half of the season they basically are like they’re these dudes are trying to win events that you don’t even give a [ __ ] if you playing or not so why like I don’t think Rory and wendham and these guys understand that all these lower

Level dudes are still playing golf on TV when you’re not like do you want to play [ __ ] every week for seven months I don’t think so like that just so think about it like that too like Bryce Garnett once again first start of the year goes out and wins now he’s in the

Players he’s got a few other exemptions so huge W for him and in all honesty the Finish to the Puerto Rico open was 10 times better than the finish at the Arnold Palmer like yeah it’s fun to watch Scotty just stripe it and make everything he looks at but there was an

Actual playoff in the uh Puerto Rico open so fun golf to watch and uh just happy for a vet like Bryce Garnett that is now you know and that’s another thing that with the lack of events that these lower level dudes can play in it makes

It that much harder like I said once again no middle class it these dudes on the lower level it is so hard for them to come up into the higher level because they don’t have exemptions into these big events so now Bryce Garnett has got

His shot to go play in the players which notoriously has like the biggest purse in on the PJ T so uh hopefully we’ll root for him there and he can make a fat check this week yeah and so he like you said it went into a playoff

Went four holes in the playoff um but he ended up birding the fourth and final playoff hole and let’s see he missed a birdie putt on the 18th hole and was able to win it in the playoffs so Bryce Garnett now has status on the PGA tour for three

Years like you said he’s getting into the players he’s getting getting into the Masters this year just an all-time big thing for him he hasn’t won since 2018 and he won the corales punana so he’s a big non-american golf guy he’s basically Tony F now oh

Wow I just love saying that [ __ ] because it just Ruffles the right kind of feathers for me um but yeah he he loves winning outside of America loves winning those opposite field events so maybe we need Bryce Garnett on the Ridder Cup team the next time the United States

Goes outside of the US plays on European soil maybe he could play in the uh President’s Cup maybe he could play like he could be like celeb for the international team so when they whenever they play or just play the US team and only on opposite years when they’re not

Playing in America yes so every other year he gets a spot in the President’s Cup every four years every other year no oh they play it yeah I get I get what you’re saying I get what you’re saying the math is not mathing for you no it’s not all right

Let’s move on to Abraham answerer winning live golf Hong Kong at uh Hong Kong golf club’s fangling course in shangu a mouthful you know I I don’t proof Reed before I actually come out with it ironically did you see end up seeing what he shot on Sunday no he was

Two overp par on Sunday so he had a five shot lead similar to sheffler just dominating he a five shot lead going into Su they don’t play Sunday well technically it was Sunday because of the time change oh okay the final round how about that he had a three five shot lead

Funny joke yeah it was a good joke thank you he had a five shot lead going into the final round and ended up shooting two over 72 Paul Casey and Cameron Smith fired 64 and 66 respectively to tie him um but then they for Paul Casey played

Golf dude I know there’s there’s so many guys on the live tour that are not your John RS or Cam Smith your Bryson dambos that were very good players in their own right for a while and now are they’re not near as obviously most players aren’t near as known on the live tour

But that’s a guy right there Paul Casey that had every year one of us would pick him to win The Masters or some stupid [ __ ] and and he would you know falter but I think what you’re talking about is every single player on the Majestics oh just a shot at the

Majestics I think it’s like Ian polter Lee Westwood uh just a bunch of washed up no I actually love both those guys so I’m not talking [ __ ] but I also kind of am because they are very washed at this juncture and um if Ian polter wasn’t the team captain he would have been

Relegated I think uh which is just ironic yeah we talked about the end of the last LIF season uh because captains can’t get relegated but he’s just had a royal dog piss down his legs so um that shit’s funny but yeah Paul Casey every once in a while like have you ever seen

That dude just hit buttercut after buttercut and you’re like holy [ __ ] he’s almost like an Alex norin before Alex noren I see Paul Casey and Alex norin like Spider-Man meme like they didn’t Paul Casey used to have the like Nike blades like similar to Tiger Woods he

Had the very Tiger Woods look when tiger was good yeah and his his swing like he swung he swings so hard left through impact that his Club is like releasing around his left hip like I’ve never seen a club exit lower and around somebody than Paul Casey I’m so jealous of that

That’s the move I want to make like and it just looks so like put together and so pure and he’s not like flipping it out releasing way away from his body and [ __ ] hitting those big snipers like Xander chafl he just hits it so [ __ ] pure and just baby Cuts all day just

Baby cut after what did uh Joe call it we got a great interview coming up on Wednesday pinch cut yeah a little pinch cut think people called a pinch cut you teed up lower like you were talking about and when actually when I was playing out in South Carolina um we were

Experimenting with the low teed pinch cut what I can’t afford to do is hit that shot because I already hit it too short um so I got to [ __ ] swing it every I got to Tee It Up as high as my knee and try to hit it like it’s a low

And Away slider like I just got to [ __ ] reach for it and swing as hard as I can so I I can’t afford to hit that pinch cut but a guy like Joe zosi who’s cons consistently swinging at 120 plus uh can afford to really dial it down and

Hit that pinch cut yeah so on the team side uh which everybody cares about Bryson Des Shambo Captain Crushers GC won for a second consecutive week so they’re just going to be collecting more checks snapping necks and cashing checks on Crusher G crushing necks and cashing

Checks is what I should have said oh well done I would have been better off that with that but um quote from Bryson we know with four scores counting we’re going to be in it no matter matter what on the last day we put the pedal to the

Medal yesterday and showcased who we are what a [ __ ] bit this dude lives in like what what kind of pro what what is his issue like he’s got so many of them um do you think he’ll compete at any Majors this year I do actually going

Back to that was quick going back to last year and watching from full swing and what re the my one of my favorite things about full swing is reliving the the majors because that’s kind of what they really put a lot of their time into and then the episodes and the offshoots

Of that uh come out in the player stories and who they’re following around of course but goes back to the majors and I almost forget who not necessarily who won uh some of them some of the cases I’ll admit I don’t remember who won but you forget how they won or how

Dominant like how dominant Brooks keco was in the PGA Championship and it re kind of lets you relive the really important moments in golf from the past year so shout out to full swing for that but I do believe Bryson Shambo is going to compete because the way I look at it

And I’m still standing by this fact is I do think that live players will win at least two majors this year obviously walking Neeman is going to be up there in all of them or have a shot he has a legitimate shot John ROM has a legitimate shot cam Smith has a

Legitimate shot Phil mson I don’t don’t laugh at that [ __ ] he won the PGA PGA two years ago I know but he shot8 he shot 82 in the first round in Hong Kong I don’t give a [ __ ] he was worse than Anthony k doesn’t care what he shoots in

Hong Kong he do do you imagine what kind of partying Phil Mickelson would do in Hong Kong the amount of designer drugs that are over there that he was probably into he’s got away like a buck 30 now he is just rail thin um I kind of want to

Have this phase I don’t know if I’m ever going to have kids or not but he seems like he’s in that phase where his kids are grown and he’s just like back to partying like he’s he’s basically an 18-year-old in a 55y old’s body yeah

That that would be a fun time cuz then you got money especially like guys like that swim they got real money he’s drinking that fake ass coffee energy [ __ ] and then just hitting the sauce extremely hard yeah speaking of Anthony Kim who uh got speak of drugs whoa um

Got 50th place this live event but did shoot five under 65 on Sunday making seven birdies and two bogey so maybe he found it dude he’s back he’s all the way back Liv has actually a month off um so they’re they’re taking these dudes are like see in June yeah they’re taking the

Next month off they will reurn for live golf Miami at n Trump National Dalal April 5th through 7th leading into the Masters so the week before the Masters these guys will go tea it up again at Miami the Masters is a over a month away

I thought it well I guess it seems like they they’re off the rest of March so three weeks essentially in the first week of April they’re back so first week of ail live golf will be back we can go back to making money on the bet 365 app

All right before we finish this pot up we’re going to do our weekly segment of Mullan of the week a good old Monday Mullan of the week breakfast ball whatever you want to call it uh do you want to lead us off this week or you

Want me to lead us off yeah no I got it um I I just I [ __ ] stub my toe so hard um I was trying to shut off your fish tank light back on your fish um I turned off all the other lights your fish tank light was still on it’s

In a little bit of An Inconvenient spot and your son’s baby beorn [ __ ] tell your eighty eight-month-old son to move his [ __ ] to pack up his [ __ ] and keep it straight because I just jammed my foot and like my middle toe I have weird feet

No no surprise there my middle toe is so far like inward from like my second toe it’s much shorter so I have no idea how my middle toe met this metal frame um before any other toes but it was legitimately one of those where I hit it

So hard that I was like hopping around in the you know and you stub your toe and you have to just like I was like mother I just just absolutely mfing that Baby Bjorn um and then I was like you know what I’m probably just being a

[ __ ] this was like I was like nothing’s wrong I just stub my toe and I it I’m probably not hurt and then I look and my toenail is like half off and it’s bleeding I was like okay so I actually really [ __ ] up my toe yeah and you

Actually gained a lot of respect from me in that aspect because you came up and told me you stubbed your toe and I was like oh this guy like I thought the same thing you did like you’re like tipping your toes a little red and it just hurts

And then I saw how [ __ ] up your toenail was and I was like oh wow you you [ __ ] soccer kicked that yeah exactly like I don’t I know I stephey but [ __ ] me like that thing was moving into that baby beorn um but then I got

In bed last night in the first thing I clipped the toe toenail on the sheet and like ripped it halfway off I don’t want to like make people cringe because I know that shit’s very cringey um but then I just had to like eliminate the toenail it’s not all the it’s just like

Halfway down oh it’s just like H it’s not gone gone it’s a thumb toe yeah it’s very it’s very thumb Tosh it’s yeah my it’s [ __ ] gross so that’s my just need to watch where I’m [ __ ] stepping yeah um my Mulligan of the week also

Semi has to do with my kid but first of all Costco great place I’m all in went there today I told you bro great great amount of G groceries but for all those dads and parents out there listening Costco diapers can [ __ ] kick baby beorn they can kick rocks they’re piles

Of [ __ ] not literally they don’t hold them uh the other day there is a [ __ ] I caught a whiff so I I knew what that meant I had to go into the room do the whole change scenario uh I don’t catch a lot of the shits which is nice I usually

Am just a piss changer um but it was definitely a [ __ ] and the worst part is is he had a little onesie on underneath his pants and so I you have to take the pant like what you want for adults corre like what I what I ideally want for

Myself like you want to have buttons under your taint that you just strap in correct so my ass crack never shows and it never gets posted on Instagram for my [ __ ] birthday uh but so he you have to take the pants off and I you know I

Start pulling the pants down and the [ __ ] had come out of the diaper and gotten onto the pants so when I pulled the pants down it just drug [ __ ] all down this poor guy’s leg so immediately [ __ ] Costco diapers we had to go straight up and take a bath me right

After that like there was no like d just take him in the yard and hose him down there was no wiping it off uh at this scenario there was [ __ ] everywhere it got on my hands it was not good and then I take him into the bath do bath time

Whatever I actually kind of enjoy it it’s fun dude he’s a lunatic in the bath yeah he’s a [ __ ] psycho in the water and so then I take him out and he’s in his little towel and he [ __ ] pukes right on me so I got the [ __ ] storm and

Then the puke storm back to back and that was just one of those moments where I was like [ __ ] this isn’t this is no fun yeah the way you toss him around though I’m not surprised he doesn’t puke more like you do jostle him quite a bit

Well it’s hey there’s no [ __ ] shaking baby no I’m not saying jostel like [ __ ] like I’m just talking about like you’re throwing him in the air you’re dancing with him all this [ __ ] if you did that with me 15 minutes after I ate I would also throw up and [ __ ] my pants

So you maybe just need to give him a little bit more time after he eats and like he finishes the bottle Spencer [ __ ] whips the bottle out of his mouth and then they just start [ __ ] around I’m like dude get him a little bit to digest his little baby body can’t

Handle that [ __ ] that’s fair I’ll I’ll learn Marissa all right Marissa Mulligan of the week mine’s not as cool actually yours is disgusting Nei cool um so I get my nails done once a month that is my thing that I do in treat yourself yeah

You know but great thank you um but when I go there you know I’m the person like they’re pretty they’re not strict but they’re not very friendly with people who move a lot which is exactly what I do you’re fidgety yeah so they put these

Little arm hooks on there so I so I can’t move yeah and they know who I am so immediately they come out and you stick your hands on there um and it it doesn’t let me move as much but they bring out this like Guillotine style [ __ ] that you

Got to put your hands in they [ __ ] put you in a straight jacket before they do your nails yes and this woman is very friendly like she always compliments my nails she’s always really nice but I definitely irritate her and my one of my hands is broken or has been broken so I

Can’t move it as well so like I have to shift my whole body over and really irritates her because she doesn’t want the nails to get ruined um before I stick them in the little tray that like dries them and so she had just finished with my hand on this and she’s taking

Forever and there’s a bunch of people that are waiting to come in and you know she’s flipping my hand to keep me still and stuff like that and as I go to pull it down my arm like is asleep because they’re sitting like this so it like

Dies on me for a second and I scrape my nails all the way across the um like the towel and all of them get messed up and she like looks at me for a second and you know when like someone looks at you and they’re thinking of a thousand ways

To kill you yeah yeah that’s what she’s doing at me and then she immediately starts speaking um a different language yes and she’s like and all yeah all the women in there are like looking at me and then I feel really stressed out because I’ve totally and I’m like

Apologizing and she she won’t look at me her friendliness has gone away and then she like pulls my arms really tight and she has me like like this the entire time and even like I needed to sneeze or anything she give me the dirtiest look

And so I just waited um but I did tip her a lot oh my okay I was going to say you got to take care of her but number two I don’t think you can ever go back there again oh I will I think you’ve ruined it for yourself and for them if

If I live by that role my entire life I wouldn’t be able to go back to the gym you’re like I can’t go anywhere yeah so no that’s actually a very good fairware 4 I there’s nothing worse Mullan of the week I’m sorry shut up um when your hand

Falls asleep or something and you just have no control over it that is so [ __ ] weird like you just can’t control your own extremities wild [ __ ] yeah yeah the concept of a body part falling asleep is it’s something that I dove deep into on the airplane last time

Because my arm was asleep and some people do that [ __ ] on purpose yeah stranger danger uh what is it a we won’t get into that all right that wraps it up for us for this Monday Winter Circle edition episode we will be back Wednesday live
