Without much wind um there’s not much defense out there and these guys absolutely tore it up um we’ll kind of dive into the leaderboard we’ll dive into round two I mean there’s definitely an advantage for round two that we’ll get into make Showdown pretty clearcut um but uh obviously a couple things you

Me froze out here uh which we’ll get to in a minute and for some reason it is not allowing me to take this off the screen that is super annoying let’s see if we can refresh think we’re back sorry about that not sure what the heck happened uh yeah all

Right we’re back sorry about that froze up there for a sec um all right back in Action so uh yeah I had that I’m not pulling that thing back up man I froze the screen so mastered 15 is the promo code uh gets you 15% off uh any package

Like I said if you sign up and use it for a six Monon an annual PJ or annual all access we’ll be choosing one person and uh you’ll be getting your money back I don’t know what happened it’s I think it’s that Master uh Banner thing that

Keeps popping up because it Happ me uh I think it was last week too same thing froze and kicked me out so we’re not going back to the Master’s Banner um but that code is Masters 15 uh in terms of today what we saw for round one I mean I

Don’t know like disappoints me in a tournament like this and you guys can put your thoughts in the chat we can kind of uh talk back and forth through it now there’s a freaking EO this is a a disaster I apologize if there is an eeko

But we just got to roll with it at this point um the uh if you’re telling everyone that you’re like the fifth major and this is the the fifth major you can’t have scores like this and I understand there’s no wind soft course but as far as I know they have the sub

Air stuff they can make it more firm like these guys were just throwing darts and they’re just sticking and just short putts I mean it was just way way too easy you got three guys at seven under um Xander Rory uh Clark you got Nick Taylor at six under Matthew Fitzpatrick

Six under then a bunch of guys at five Tom hogi Jason day Oar sheffler Tyler Duncan five under MAV mcne who I did play five under my boy Jimmy Stanger the Stanger got to five under and I don’t know if I played him which would be very

Disappointing if I I think I did a little bit in the Millie a bunch of guys at 4 under Taylor Montgomery Michael Kim ssto Nate Lashley at four under uh Schmid at four under Mark hubt at four under hom Connors uh Chris Kirk all four

Under I mean that is just way too easy uh of conditions today and again there’s probably nothing uh that they can do about it but man it is uh it was it was easy sledding for everyone out there and hopefully tomorrow things change um the weather in the morning should be pretty

Similar uh but in the afternoon we potentially get some win so we’ll we’ll see how that all goes uh and the conditions are supposed to get a little more difficult hang on for one sec Man kids home alone with the kids not not not a good time to do the show

But we’re back on it here so uh all those guys uh sitting at 4 under and it’s just too like I said so early uh we get yeah no audio audio no audio because I was yelling at my kids that’s why there’s no audio but back to back to talking some

Golf conditions tomorrow it does look like there’s going to be an advantage so for Showdown some we can take advantage of in the morning uh in the morning it looks you know five to eight mile hour winds and then in the afternoon uh gets

Up to like 10 m hour winds with some Gus 10 to 15 and then Gus into the 20 20 so I think tomorrow definitely want to load up on the morning guys now that doesn’t mean you have to go all in on it I don’t think it’s that extreme where it’s like

An all-in scenario but a majority of my player pool will be morning guys I think that’s just the way to go now a lot of times in these scenarios we’ve seen five ones win where you take Five Guys in the AM and then just one guy in the

Afternoon and those have won but the problem with those builds are you just have you have to nail the afternoon guy and uh a lot of people will just go to the you know expensive like Rory’s in the afternoon guys like that going in the afternoon and it seems like it’s

Just a random guy in the afternoon tougher conditions that goes out there and is the one you need so we’ll see but in terms of tomorrow I think we play it with load up on the morning I mean it as as much as we can the shift I was just

Going to pull up the weather here the shift in the weather uh kind of happens it really seems like it was almost right around I’m just pulling it up here on my phone uh it really seems like it’s almost right around where are we it looked like it was honestly like right

Around like noonish time is when it really started to kick into gear uh pull that down um so yeah in the morning it’s just five M hour six seven and then right around lunch it’s when it kind of shifts 8 nine 10 11 and then you really start

To see those gusts um in the later afternoon probably four or five uh PM local time so we’re going to want to load up on the ear guys so I have it sorted here by Price what I want to do here throughout the show is kind of talk

Through the tea times and find guys uh with the best tea times it almost seems like even the earlier the better um for for these tea times it’s going to be super calm uh in the morning like nothing and then those guys aren’t going to play deep into the afternoon they’re

Going to kind of be done so uh the first tea times 7:40 e Eastern the first group going the first six you got like Benny on who he was decent today where did where did he go pull him up because he’s a name that we can definitely play

People are going to be on him Benny on 3 under today so like he’s a guy that I want exposure to 88,200 Doug gim uh 7400 I think he’s a guy that I definitely want to play him he was very popular on the main slate he’s one under a lot of

People might say oh one under not good enough like I can get off him not get off him he’s going to get some ownership but uh at 74 Doug gim in on him uh Kevin Yu can score I think he’s always a good Showdown guy Patrick Rogers is a score

Uh Schmid is a guy I will be off I mean he’s sit have what five or six under right now like he’s one guy that I don’t necessarily have to play I sitting up four under he’s goingon to get a lot of ownership at 62 uh Hayden Buckley at 6K flat these

Are six guys going off first he’s sitting at four under and he’s 6K flat so you can play a lot of these guys in this first group the one I like the least is probably Schmid because of where he’s ated on the leaderboard and I think that’s gonna Garner a lot of

Ownership start coming down Denny McCarthy is a guy that people a lot of people talked about him heading into this week sitting at one under um fine with him Hustler is a guy I definitely like uh 7100 what did he do today yeah 100 so a

Lot a lot of these guys up appear sitting at one under I’m good with Hustler hogard is a guy that can score SMY I’m good with um Matthew n Smith at 61 going to want a lot of guys going off early and I I guess you know the more I kind of talk

About I’m not opposed to Allin Allin play here just Allin on the morning guys and and avoid the the afternoon I gotta look at the contest and see what I’m going to play tomorrow if I’m going 150 I’d probably include some afternoon guys if I’m building three lineups I’d be all

In on the morning if I’m going five lineups I would be all in on the morning uh if I go 10 lineups I’d probably be all in on the morning once I got to 20 I think is when I’d introduce potentially uh some afternoon guys into my player pool but

Anything under 20 I think I’m good being all in on the morning guys and one thing we always talk about people will say they want to play play a lot of morning guys and be morning heavy but a lot of times people are hesitant to pull the

Trigger and go like all in so um yeah 20 lineups or less I’ll I’d probably or less than 20 lineups I’d probably be all in a morning you guys can ask questions specific questions about that and that strategy as well we can discuss it here

On the show Stephen Jagger is a guy that can score Mark hubard I mean hubard is a guy that uh I was big on for the main slate sitting up four under I really like him going into tomorrow yeah my guy Stanger and I don’t think I played a lot

Of him I’ve been pumping Stanger hard for like weeks now and go collect knows I mean he follows all our content he knows that I’ve been on Stanger and I don’t think I got enough of him sitting at five under and I guess one thing I should mention is they didn’t finish

Round one there’s like I don’t know like five or six guys that still have like a couple holes to play it’s not like there’s a ton but Stanger is one of those guys so maybe he even moves up he could move up tomorrow as well so we’ll

See uh where is our guy Cam Davis on the leaderboard he’s sitting at seven over oh boy yeah I don’t want to mess with him that’s for sure Sam Ryder uh go collect as about Ryder can we play Sam Ryder yeah for sure 68 00 sitting at 200

Under I think he’s a solid option my boy pavon uh sitting at 7,100 he’s got a nice and early tea time two under I’m good with that for sure um another guy I wanted to see yeah Jake knap like I didn’t really play him on the main slate

But a really good tea time at 7K a lot of cheap guys going off early as you can see look at all these price tags most expensive guy in the first I don’t know going all the way to 8:24 eastern time the most expensive guy

Is Benny on at 82 so I mean this should be all your value guys even guys that I don’t necessarily like these should be your value guys tomorrow regardless of like your player pool and what you’re doing Sheamus power 7K I don’t necessarily love that price tag um yeah

I wouldn’t I don’t think I’d play like mulinari uh at 6K now we start to get to some of the guys that uh oh my gosh Matthew Fitz Matthew Fitzpatrick is going to be very popular at $7,300 tomorrow oh my like he’s goingon to be very popular sitting at six under

Probably ends up being one of the highest owned guys on the Slate and yeah that’s man that is just a cheap price tag for for a guy that really turned it around today uh way up there really nice tea time he’s gonna have a lot of

Ownership Max H will be owned 8900 I’m good with him what Didi do three under 94 now this is where at 94 for Hideki people might b a little bit like these are just these tea times are too good when you consider the afternoon guys are gonna be playing with

Some weather so despite Matthew Fitzpatrick probably getting a lot of ownership I just got to be on them for the tea times um you know this group Fenson Wallace Hardy I don’t love I think I would just go with the earlier tea time guys then you get to some big

Boys here you got Scotty you got Justin Thomas uh you know Scotty at 127 will probably be the most popular guy in the Slate as he was uh for the main slate going right back to his ass like that should be no surprise to anyone I mean

He is the best player in the world now he’s got a really good tea time tomorrow most expensive guy on the Slate not gonna slow PE he’s probably I don’t know like I haven’t even looked at ownership or anything we don’t have ours up I’d guess probably 40 45% I don’t know what

Do you guys think KY lower than 45 I think 45 is where I’d put it for tomorrow um I want to be on him in in a real big way Justin Thomas uh wasn’t great today at one under definitely want to go back to to him though uh Harris

English what did English finish at today yeah three under I think he’s a great option Ricky fers guy like I don’t know even in a even in the better conditions I just have not been playing Ricky at all I mean his game is just not

In good good shape right now JT post and we talked about him on the show yesterday myself and uh and mayo and uh kind of thought that he’d get a little overlooked um and I think he did his ownership was very low he was good today

Three under uh so I’d be fine going back to him uh ET varia 65 maybe there’s a lot of guys going off earlier but again he would definitely be in the player pool Windam Clark continued the hot play he’s up there tied for the lead you know

I’d probably go like Hadi over him at like the same price tag 94 vers 93 morawa we our boy Mo CWA finish one under yeah 8,800 I think he’s totally fine option Corey Connors we talked about it if you watched uh the emergency stream from our

Guy to gen 75 it’s the one guy he’s playing this week he comes out gets the job done in a big way started out like four under through four finished at four under which is fine that’s still a good score um we’ll take that uh 77 Brian

Harmon has had success here at this course uh where did willly Z finish and yeah so one over I see Willie Z this is a play I do really like tomorrow because people are going to be down on him one under one over I think he can bounce

Back tomorrow so I really like Willie Z sitting at 95 uh Shane Lowry kind of disappointed a little bit today he was ended up being a pretty popular play so he got to 100 so he did bounce back so you know good with him good with

Cam young to wonder and then where did did our guy not our guy cuz I faded him on the mains L Tony feno that’s a good price tag for Tony feno really soft pricing is one thing that definitely stands out we’re seeing some cheap cheap guys Tony feno at uh 8,100 that’s really

Really cheap um we’ll talk about Rory in a minute because I I’ll yeah I’ll talk about Rory once I get through these morning guys um where do we leave off yeah luk list at 68 um you know this is where these these guys now they’re going to

Probably start to to play into that afternoon a little bit I don’t think it’s a spot where we need to fade any of these guys I you know again I’m playing morning super heavy and I would consider Allin like I get aggressive with this stuff when I see an advantage um yeah we

Talked about the Matthew Fitzpatrick price I mean 7,300 he’s goingon to be very popular sitting at six under with a really really good um price tag 73 I mean he he’s going to probably be one of the more popular guys on this L I wouldn’t be surprised if Fitzpatrick is

Is number two to Scotty sheffler that pairing is going to be very very popular and you know we’ll we’ll show some roster construction stuff after uh theala yeah I’m cool with him I always prefer theala on Showdown slates I think his volatility is great for for Showdown

Now again you can play him on the main slates too because when he’s on he’s in contention I just prefer him in Showdown so I’ll be on him what is he 7900 uh all right let’s see what else we got here coming down the pipeline Chris

Kirk 71 good price tag for Chris Kirk where did he finish up today Chris Kirk four under um yeah he’ll he’ll get some ownership but yeah definitely good with him uh batia he I know he got off to a pretty hot start yeah tailed off a little bit

Sitting at even I think he’s a good play another guy he’s similar to theala where I just uh I like him in these Showdown formats a lot of Spike performances Novak we uh Novak won over why see that’s the problem like Novak sitting um you got the 6,800 price tag

It’s just I want these guys that are teeing off like almost two hours earlier to come back up here look at all these guys in that price range going out at like 740 750 like definitely going to avoid all the heavier wind where these guys going off here a little bit later

Potentially get into some of it in the afternoon Eric Coulson at 200 Matt McNeely is playing really well I’m good with him um and then you got some of these other guys like Stanger I like Stanger I’ve been talking about Stanger for weeks but if he um well he is gonna

Finish at you know five 600 whatever it is he’s still has two holes to play he’ll get some ownership again I will probably lean if you’re only building a couple teams I’d lean those guys with the earlier tea times over these values going a little later but you can

Certainly play any one I mean you can make the case for anyone that is playing in the in the morning tomorrow in my opinion you know so it just depends what you do I wanted to look at uh some of these Scotty shuffler and let’s see like Fitzpatrick

Build so you look at that you got 7,500 left that’s what a lot of people are going to do then they’re going to come up here and then you know probably go to some of these early tea time guys play Benny on that Benny on will probably be

Pretty popular because he’s people that are looking at the weather and a lot do um he’s one of the only guys for the first like hour tomorrow that is priced above like above 8K so a lot of people are are going to play him so this sort of build’s gonna be very very

Popular like sheffler Fitzpatrick uh Benny on uh so there’s you just got to look for for some pivots like if you want something like that if you want a Scotty team at he’s at 127 who’s a guy uh that won’t get as much ownership Maybe I don’t know maybe like U morawa because he didn’t play as well at 88 or zot Taurus we talked about zelot Taurus it go to uh you know sheffler and Willie Z you know a lot of people will be on sheffler but Willie Z won over today

Maybe people get away from him you still have 7K a lot of those guys with that early tea time can can work into these sort of build fire off some questions too in the chat if you guys have have any questions roster construction plays I’m G talk

About some of these afternoon guys um let’s keep it sorted this way again anyone going teeing off in the afternoon in my opinion is going to be at a disadvantage so who can we play in the afternoon if you want to mix in uh some of these afternoon guys um the obvious

Answer and what a lot of people are going to do is right here Xander at 106 and then a lot of people will do Rory at 108 and these guys can beat the tougher conditions there’s no doubt about it but if people are playing exclusively am and they’re going to mix

In some PM guys the PM guys they’re mixing in are going to be Rory are going to be Xander um so if you do want to spend on afternoon guys I don’t hate going to like havland as a spend who wasn’t great today um you know Klay

Started out hot fell apart um sort by Price here just to see who else at the top has a bad te time you know hav hin can’t lay um you know Sam Burns another guy you can throw in there if you want to you know play an afternoon guy and do like a

51 or something like that like Burns is a perfect candidate for that um you know even Tommy Fleetwood to some extent Jason day is towards the top so he’ll probably get some ownership so I’m just looking at different pivots in the afternoon um and those would probably be

The only guys the only sort of guys that I play in the afternoon because if I’m playing value I definitely want my cheap guys to be the guys that have the the advantage like definitely leaning cheap early value like I don’t want to take risk on afternoon guys um that are cheap

You know if if at all like I’m looking for high upside like birdie maker so I have it sorted by the latest tea times let’s see if there’s anyone in this group that I would have interest in um Ryan Fox is a score he had the whole

Eagle and then a hole in one maybe a guy like him um Grio maybe a Grio I mean he can play in tough conditions he”s been playing solid golf um where did he finish today a three under like I wouldn’t mind maybe mixing in a guy like Grio uh Oar you can

Probably play him 9200 like totally fine with that like Kenley I’d stay away from Adam Scott like I don’t have much interest in U I’m just looking for guys that I think can score Adam shank you know maybe a guy like shank I’m not I don’t feel

Great about it siuk Kim I think is definitely an interesting option uh in the afternoon if you want to go that route if you’re looking for guys like that he’s uh he bounced back I mean he was playing really poorly bounce back finish the round strong you know if

Going anyone I think SEI wo is an option minwoo at uh 7,800 would be a potential option in the afternoon he’s one over should be low owned a lot of people play in the uh early tea times I’d be fine going to a guy like him

Um what did this guy do yeah no I’m not doing Carl Juan no thanks on him um so yeah just be a few of those guys that I kind of mentioned in the afternoon that I potentially that I potentially go to but um you know

Outside of that it’s going to be a lot of morning guys uh I got Landa who’s in the chat what’s going on Landa uh do you ever use Showdown as a hedge to your main lineups great question I mean really really good question and yes um I do

Use Showdown as a hedge but not in this scenario where there’s weather like if there if if I’m playing it straight up no weather advantage and I know I have a ton of a guy in the main slate he’s right on the cut line and I need him to

Make the cut to probably have a good main slate I’m fine staying away from him on The Showdown slate because I already know if he does well I’m probably making some money on the main slate so those sort of scenarios a guy that’s kind of playing from behind that

Needs to work his way uh you know to make the cut needs to have a good round too I’m fine you know staying away from him and if he does have that big round then my main Slate’s going to benefit I know Tambo does it different but for for

Me I I am totally open with using Showdown as a hedge except in this scenario where I think there’s a distinct weather Advantage like I kind of throw all that stuff out the window I’m just playing the weather Advantage I don’t care what’s on my main slate um

Yeah so yeah again I just read the rest of your statement and yeah I I am totally fine doing that when there’s not a weather Advantage I think there is a weather Advantage tomorrow but really good question because people play it different though too like I said me and

Tambo have talked about this and he is is fine like d doubling down and you know sticking with his guys again this is more of like a tiebreaker scenario type thing if I’m like do I want to play him if he is on the fence blah blah blah

And I know I have a lot on the main I’m fine like you know taking the back seat uh for for round two but people Again Play it different you guys have any more questions uh go ahead and uh and fire away a quick reminder if you guys could

Hit that like And subscribe helps us out a ton in in growing this Channel and in growing our business and we appreciate all the support so far so like subscribe and then we have that promo and I’m not going to pull it up because it keeps

Freezing my screen and then I can’t get back to what I’m trying to do but the the promo code is Masters 15 gets you 15% off any package over at shipping nation.com uh if you choose a six-month an annual PGA or an all access PGA we be

Selecting one person and uh they’ll get their money back so the all access uh for with 15% off is like 509 um you can potentially get that back get a year free of ship it Nation um so yeah uh again just to kind of summarize everything it’s definitely a lean strong

Lean to the morning guys and my official take was if I’m playing less than 20 lineups I’d potentially go all in on the morning if I’m 20 or more I’d probably may start that’s when I would start to consider mixing in some afternoon guys but I’d be very specific about the

Afternoon guys that I mix in I want guys that can go out there and score guys that have uh proven track records of playing uh good in difficult conditions so that’s kind of where I’m at for round two we’ll have another video for for round three and round four all our

Content for round two will start to go up here pretty soon I’ll have my cores up uh my core plays I’ll have the tier rankings up we’ll have our projections our ownership projections all that will start to drop here uh relatively soon but uh appreciate all the support on
