ladies and gentlemen that is the Quail Hollow ringer Rory mroy won his first American tournament on these grounds in 2010 dusted the field again in 2015 and won it in 202 and he’s coming off a win two weeks ago at the Zurich of New Orleans Golf Channel and the PGA Tour proudly present on the Range live ahead of the Wells Fargo Championship it’s a beautiful look at the finishing hole right here that little creek that bisects the entirety of the Fairway all up to the green most of the best players in the world right now are on the as they get ready at beautiful Quail Hol club and this is AIG stat it looks better than ever place is in Exquisite condition as we get ready for this sign event on the PGA tour and we welcome you into our studios here proud to be on Golf Channel today with Susie Wy and Colin SWAT and I’m Taylor Zer I think there are some TZ logo golf balls you saw in that Creek just a moment ago on the 18th hole Susie I know you’re just raving about the golf course I mean it just looks tremendous we it’s been talked about and talked about but it’s a big golf course this is a huge venue it’s going to take ball hitting Galore off the te total distance is important this week but shot making from that 175 to 200 yard range is going to be really critical this week and you have to look to the person who knows those carry numbers the best because the greens are hard they’re pretty new they haven’t softened up yet and it’s going to take a lot of front green carries to get this job done yeah you got to do a quick little shout out there to Keith wood obviously he’s one of those guys that likes to have his hands in every single decision that make at the quail Holo club and the changes that they’ve made to this golf course 2 you know obviously redoing all of the green surfaces they’ve kind of taken out some of the the undulations on those green surfaces to access more pin locations and that’s also too to increase the speed of these greens so new te location on 13 they’ve moved it off over to the right hand side create a little bit different angle they’ve softened the front of that green at 13 and then they’ve added some length to obviously The Green Mile as well so that’s going to be interesting to see how it affects these is coming down the stretch there and that bunker on the right there at 16 that’s one that’s going to be of interest to a lot of these plays this week yeah Keith wood the superintendent does such a fabulous job Johnny Harris the president of the club says greatness is always under construction and they’ve done a great job with that on the 16th hole which will be longer for this man this week Rory mroy warming up right now on the Range he did play nine holes in a proam this morning taking a look at his numbers with his caddy Harry diamond and look his coach has come over from Ireland Michael Bannon there in the background Colin yeah Michael’s been with him really from the very very start of Rory’s career spent a lot of time watching him standing in that position behind Rory M watching what is just a picture perfect goal swing you can see there just a glimpse of some of these numbers there that these players like look at from week to week they’re all different you know some guys will be looking at Apex some guys will be looking at Spin and launch numbers some will be doing carry numbers it’s going to be a warm one this week in in uh in Charlotte so I’ll be looking at every aspect of that and it’s good to see Michael back obviously it’s a long way it’s a long trip from the UK back over to the United States so it’s good to see him back on the Range and just a reminder on the Range will’ll be providing you with in-depth swing analysis with the help from the latest technology our experts will break down some of the best players in the world as they prepare for the Wells Fargo Championship suy wayy a past president PGA of America has been standing on that green before with a nice looking jacket on Justin Thomas won the tournament in 2017 when the PGA was here it’ll be here next year but next week it’s out balla Susie which is where Rory mroy won his second PGA Championship yeah this is two nice venues in a row for Rory and as people have been witnessing his game is really coming around he’s got three top five finishes the wins we spoken about last week his golf professional here with him and you just look you know the comments Rory makes about his swing he’s looking to have strength at a dress he’s looking to stay tall in the back swing and keep that height and then he’s just looking to turn the club and body through together and he certainly seems to be super confident about his ball striking right now John mcginness has seen a lot of that through the years mcginness has seen all parts of North Carolina the Triad East Carolina with some eastern North Carolina barbecues living at the beach now welcome back to the Queen City Mr mcginness it is nice to be here I played in the inaugural one of these can’t even remember the name of the bank that sponsored it back then at any rate uh Rory maroy is playing a game that well it just simply didn’t exist even we were at our best and that is he’s hitting shots and then he’s telling Harry and anyone in earshot how far the ball went and then he goes back and looks at the computer to see how close he is and I’ve got to tell you he hasn’t been plus or minus two yards in a half hour and that includes some drivers that went 326 in the air um the only two things that ever derail uh Rory is occasionally his Putter and occasionally his distance control well I can tell you that distance control is getting dialed in unlike any I’ve ever seen really yeah it’s pretty incredible when you know you hear fans watching oh they don’t know within two yards when the cadd says no I think it’s going to be 150 and no I think it’s going to be 148 and what John just mentioned is that’s exactly what they’re doing with that trackman combine that’s what they’re doing with their numbers they’re making sure that carry number is spot on obviously they’re also working on where they’re hitting in the face how low they’re hitting in the face um but at the end of the day it is pretty incredible to hear they can do it with driver as well yeah I’ve never seen a player do it with driver before obviously you see it all the time with wedges you know you stand out on the practice te with these players and they can land it within a yard but you know we talk about it all the time with Scotty shef that he is always pin high and John mcginness makes a great point there Roy maoy can dial in those yardages to be pin High more and than not could be in that contention to win each B Michael Bannon paying close attention to those numbers all three of them are right now of course Rory’s also done some work with Butch Harmon recently to work on that wedge control we talked about the success that he’s had here through the years this is back in 2010 when that mop top was out of the Hat you might recall made the cut on the number in 2010 that was his sh in 2010 on the 15 it set up an eag and then the birdie put at the last 62 suie looks like just inred I believe he went to1 was 20 years old when he won that tournament just a few days shy of his 21st birthday and then 5 years later had it all dialed in can and R one of the PGA able toess back location and then in 202 at the excuse me still 2015 this is the 16th number now six years later in 2021 here at the seventh yeah this just down that SL this for Birdie on theeven quick those are he just trying to get Tom was a ringer on the PGA tour in the open in the 70s he won it three times mroy won it three times he’s the only person to do so looking for a fourth Vic in charlot we and Rory is standing John mcness Rory that was an impressive warm-up session right there you were calling your own numbers yeah um sort of like to do that so I played this morning already so I thought just to come come out here and just um yeah just dial in the numbers especially this week with how green How firm the greens are you’re going to have to be really precise with your uh with your carry numbers trying to land at you know two three four yards onto onto most of these greens so I think just getting comfortable with you know what clubs are going and sort of different Swings with clubs and three quarter shots and what they’re you know what they’re pitching so um yeah it was a it was a good session pretty pleased with that it seems like the attributes required on this golf course are very similar to the attributes that are required on the next Golf Course going to see what are some of those uh length off the tea I think is really important uh and then yeah I mean I think this setup this week is is maybe going to be a little different than Valhalla Valhalla will have a little more rough so there might be a bit more of a premium on hit in the fairways where um you know the rough here this week is pretty pretty benign it’s still if you hit it in the rough it’s you won’t be able to spin your golf ball so it’ll be really tricky coming into the greens but um yeah length is a big factor you know big greens so trying to hit it into the right sections of greens I think is is important and getting visuals there but uh yeah I’ve had success in both places and you know hopefully I I can keep that going hopefully you can I look forward to walking with you tomorrow thank you appreciate it you know you talked about the length you need to have off of the te as you see he’ll be playing at 1239 eastern time with Max Tom kin Tom Kim Cole the 16th t as you said been moved back you have to fly at 320 Plus in order to carry that Fairway bunker it sounds like Mr maroy might give that a go at some point this weekend I I think he’ll want to flex his muscles and certainly there’s plenty of room there there’s a car park back there Taylor we know that he might move him back to the parking lot next year Mr Harris if you’re listening here’s Colin morawa getting ready for his warm up session morawa looking for a good finish in the Queen City this week the best players in the world are at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte North Carolina onti wednes as they ready for the Wells Fargo e e e look at the range here at Quail Hollow Club just off of the golf course in fact it’s just next to the third hole that’s off in the back there Kwa warming up hasn’t spent a lot of time in Charlotte through the year scin I just uh one time playing this event was last year miss the cut he bounced around a little bit in the last few weeks obviously a little bit of a stint there with Mark black bun and I believe is now back with Rick cesing house I a him exact question in harbard town he said haven’t made the commitment yet but been able to see Rick out on the the driving range so hopefully that relationship is back together because boy our boys Su it was it was pretty awesome to watch special yeah long time coach also does such great work with so many students on the mental side of the game you know he’s right now just trying to see where he wants his targets to be talking about this earlier important to get their carry numbers down see where the ball is actually flying where it’s Landing I think Landing angles are really important this week too how that ball is coming into these greens since they’re so incredibly hard obviously some height and trajectory is going to matter it’d be interesting not to interrupt Susie but it’d be interesting to see if he if Rory maroy was actually calling those numbers in normalized or whether they were actual yeah good point here is col Mor cow is lasering the pins you saw him actually throwing up some grass so now he’s actually trying to dial his numbers in actual not in a normalized situation yeah and you know KH kind of has that Tempo swing that slow takeway certainly swings his own swing I think what’s a little different about Colin is you know he tends to have a a weak leftand grip and a strong right hand grip he loves to hit the ball left to right he’s such an unbelievable iron player six-time PGA Tour winner including the Zozo championship this past October also won the DP World Tour a few years back you may have noticed who was hitting right next to him it’s Jordan spe yeah also taking a look at his numbers that’s what they oh no he’s not he’s taking looking at text from he’s looking at Sam Burns’s phone Sam Burns exactly he’s like what you got there uh could be some baby photos could be some baby photos we don’t know who knows now Jordan hasn’t played here much either through the years’s Colin but he did have great success at Charlotte in the President’s Cup when undefeated as the United States beat the international team back in the fall of 2022 part of the reason why we haven’t seen him much in Charlotte through the years is he’s so committed to the Texas tournaments his home state always plays the CJ cup Byron Nelson which he missed the cut in last week and he loves to play at Colonial as well which will be the week after the PGA Championship so it’s a busy stretch right now for him yeah I got the chance to sort of spend some time with Jordan at RBC and I got to say he definitely looked a lot leaner and a lot more in physical shape there than I’ve seen him in the past what two kids will do that you’re running around a lot more right no he’s working out as well obviously worked with Cameron cormick for so long and so much discussion around Jordan and swing changes and trying to increase his speed and his power and what that’s done to the look of his golf swing he too has a really weak left-hand grip you saw that when we were a little bit on the forward angle there it’s interesting you know there’s so many different ways that you can get it done and it’s all about matching things up as a as an golf instructor or a teacher is to sort of say okay that left hand we just got a glimpse of it there how how sort of as you refer to it weak it is in position and then suddenly it’s like okay well how do I actually then need what do I need to do in actual fact to square things up and you can see that Jordan gets a little bit steep on it gets that left elbow a little bit more in that sort of bent position and tends to pull the club club face through there and that’s how he manages that face and path relationship you can see good look at that grip there yeah and you’ll see how bow that left wrist on the takeaway at the top he gets that trail leg a little straighter he really tries to stay connected and around doesn’t like his arms to get too far away from his body from P1 to P4 which is the beginning to the top and I believe Mr mcginness has a special guest I do indeed Jamie who is a teacher to the Stars these days of course Patrick Klay here who’s on his way out here to the range we appreciate you giving us a couple of minutes and uh and Nelly let’s talk about today though uh right now obviously Patrick getting ready for the tournament what do you guys work on last minute Quail Hollow we’ve been here a lot you know Patrick knows what to do in our system I’ve been working with him since he was seven years old so the system doesn’t change a lot we just do some tuneups on his motion a little bit and then kind of go through our protocol putting chipping and seeing the Place obviously there’s some changes in the golf course a little bit it was nice to walk it yesterday a little bit and then see it today and so just getting ready to play another event let’s talk about your other uh student who very well may be the story of the year in golf when it’s all said and done what can you say about Nelly yeah I’m so proud of her I mean she’s simplified everything she’s doing and she’s also all had amazing talent but she’s just in a nice little bubble and it’s fun when you’re doing this and you’re winning and you’re doing the things that she’s doing and how simple that she’s kep the process which is probably good for everybody at home to hear that and uh she’s a lovely young lady too and one of the cool things about it if uh you were looking at Houston was how many people were out there and how many people were out there with their kids and how many fathers were out there with their daughters watching this girl play golf and make it look really easy and win as well well that is really cool six in a row we’re going for six in a row that that is unheard of it’s unprecedented and we wish you guys luck thank you very much thanks guys thank you guys the cognizant Founders cup Susie what they’re talking about where she’s going for six in a row right after she was at the Met Gala the other night looking great at the Met Gala so fun to see her there is only the second professional golfer to be invited so very cool Tiger Woods was the first he won at Quail Hollow in 2007 it’s the Wells Fargo Championship this week for e e it is time now for going for the green presented by draftking Sportsbook let’s say hello to golf bet editorial lead will Graves out there on the Range will it looks great out there at Quail Hollow I know Rory mroy is the ringer in town but we’re going a little deeper down the board to find your lead bet this week yeah Taylor we are all kind of getting acclimated with what it’s like to deal with a PJ tour signature event without Scotty Sheffer in the field where do you go with your money in the outright Market as you mentioned I’m going a little bit further down the board I approach with trepidation and attempt to pinpoint Cameron Young’s first PJ tour win but I’m going to give it a shot this week because I love the price plus 2500 it feels like when he gets that first win this is the sort of course and the sort of event where he’s going to get it done a big ballpark a tough course a strong field these are all elements where he has thrived recently seven runner-up finishes on tour we’ve seen what he’s done in the majors this is a place where he should be able to lean on that driver really give himself an advantage when you go back his historically you got to hit it long off the te to have a chance at Quail Hollow I think Cameron young is really priced well maybe the odds makers are sleeping on a little bit this week because of that slow finish or that rough finish at RBC Heritage a couple weeks ago I think cam young plus 2500 is a good bet I like it a lot too he’s a Wake Forest Demon Deacon as well will so he’s got a lot of familiarity with this region how about a best value play for the week yeah say it five times fast Christian Baden hoot plus 8,000 880 to1 on the South African maybe doesn’t have the name recognition for a lot of fans but he has a really strong game runner up this year at the American Express a top 15 at the Players Championship he’s one of the best Putters on tour 10th this season in Strokes gain putting and he doesn’t have a ton of familiarity with this tournament but remember the President’s Cup 2022 was at qu Hollow bazen hoot went 10 in one for Trevor imman’s International Squad so he knows this course well he has played well here in the past he’s coming off some solid finishes top 10 top 20s and I feel like plus 8,000 in the outright Market maybe a look for a top 10 finish remember no cut this week in 69 players in the field you can get a pretty good price on bazen hoot to hang around and be on the leaderboard even if he doesn’t take home the trophy yeah that’s a good call and it was hot that week at the President’s Cup in the fall of 2022 similar conditions this week now how about a head-to-head play will it doesn’t have to be two players in the same group it can be anyone versus anyone that’s in the field this week what do you like yeah we’re looking at a 72 ho matchup so give me the entire tournament to see how this one plays out I’m always interested to see how players react in the the subsequent weeks after winning on tour for the first time and that’s what we’ve seen with Stephen joerger he got that first win in Houston and he has kept his foot on the gas the last several weeks two straight top 20 finishes and again going back to a similar blueprint as cam young he’s one of the best drivers of the golf ball on tour top 20 in Strokes gained off the te top 20 in Strokes gain TD green I think Stephan jger is primed for a big week and I love the matchup where he’s minus 120 against Shane Lowry Shane Lowry spoke to us in the media yesterday and he’s open with the fact that he doesn’t have a good track record here he said I just don’t play well here historically now to be fair he said I didn’t play well historically at Bay Hill and then I played pretty well this year in March so he he has an opportunity to break out of the slump but anytime a player is aware of a course history maybe in a negative way I try and find a way to fade him and I think this matchup is an opportunity to do it you get a hot hand with Stephan jger minus 120 for the full tournament against the Irishman and remember he’s the only person in the world that’s beat Scotty Sheffer or Nelly Corda in the last couple of months he can’t do that this week obviously because Sheffer is not in the field but a great pick with joerger thanks so much will yeah good to be with you Taylor it’s going to be a fun week up here and remember draftking sports book is an official sports betting partner of the PGA Tour and this week new customers can bet $5

happens out here at the Wells Fargo Championship beautiful look at that finishing hole and the range is packed for the Wells Fargo proam today ton of celebrities playing in the event you think of the people that have gone on to have incredible careers they had their first victories at the Wells Fargo Championship last year was wendam Clark Susie in 2010 it was Rory mooy two years later it was Ricky fer 5 years ago it was this guy Max homo who’s gone on to have a tremendous career yeah you see Mark Blackburn there helping Max and boy together they’ve been quite the team it’s interesting Max had some physicality issues you know had a really hard time staying in posture when his arms got high and his back swing so you know Mark has mentioned on multiple occasions uh that he was inconsistent with the driver and and what they did to address that is just got the lead arm a little lower flatten the arm plane on the back swing so the shaft would shallow more without extension and then would allow him to have a ball that he could flight down a little bit as well so when you take a look at him um as he’s swinging here he’s he’s got good Rhythm he’s got you know long arms which people don’t realize in a big swing Arc he stands a little taller a dress uh because of that and once we see kind of a on the line look here tell you what we’re working on here so as you can see he got he’s got fairly long arms and then if you look at his spine angle um and you look at his address position he he works really hard right now kind of working up and down to try to get in a really good address position his quiet legs at address and then as the club starts to move back there’s very little hand action with Max the club face still looks at the golf ball as the club moves moves back which matches that spine angle um and then as he comes down the body starts to unwind and turns around his Center he has a large shift into the left leg and then once you see that large shift right there and that left forearm really isn’t under the shoulder on the handle is low through impact nothing manipulated and you can see Mark Prior to this swing you see Mark that’s what they’re working on they’re working on him exiting left with those hands which he’s doing there um really great work that they’ve done together you see how he’s kept his position in his spine angle so nicely and that’s what he struggled with when he was really inconsistent with the driver Colin one thing that I think all people that watch the game notice is just how methodical that takeaway is yeah one good thing to notice with all of these players is they have their routines for how they go about their practice session you’ll see lots of alignment sticks down on the driving range definitely for me and I know for you Susie when we walk on the driving range giving lessons from a week to week basis we’re trying to pry these alignment sticks out of out of these players bags to get them to to be on the ground where they can just go through their fundamentals you know Susie talked about it in that just that great swing breakdown that we just saw a moment ago there it’s about the little things that add up to the sum of the greater things it’s your alignment it’s your your posture your balance your ball position your distance from the ball it’s all of those things that allow Mark Blackburn to do what he needs to do in the swing and so much of the swing just becomes compensations for maybe something that you’ve done in your address you know whether the feet were closed a little bit the knees were shut something and then this swing becomes a compensation and it’s usually a product of being out on the road beating balls after balls after ball playing in these tournaments that these swing coaches have to come back and then sort of put the pieces of the puzzle back together so yeah it’s really interesting too you know a lot of elite juniors are are hesitant to put sticks down they’ll say I can’t play with those out on the golf course so why would I work with them on the Range and I always say well do the tour players have them down when they’re working on their golf swing mechanics well yeah they do so I think there’s a time and a place to have these down to check your positions as Colin mentioned to work on your Basics and then take them away and and place some holes on the on the driving range and see if you can’t emulate what you were trying to create when they were down if you can’t get them back down again until you can get some feels or uh perhaps a a a key for yourself of what gets you lined up correctly every shots the same every routine is the same you can see that little extra tilt that Colin was mentioning you know at the end of the day you look at what they’re doing and um using trackman obviously or quad and a reminder our Tracer technology provided by trackman and you were talking about feels Susie well he certainly feels as good here Quil Hollow is anywhere as great in the President’s Cup a couple years ago first of his six PGA Tour victories was a Quail Hollow here’s how Max is feeling about the course hit the Fairway and then try not to make the ball bounce too high on the greens they’re really firm so uh I think you start with the Fairway and then then do best to leave it leave it in the best possible spot it’s going to be a little bit tricky uh with some of you know if if the wind kicks up at all uh the greens you know they’re they they’ll stop eventually but it takes a massive bounce bounces right over you know Brian Harmon’s not super tall but it would bounce clear over his head so it’s going to be a bit tough with the new greens but uh they’re in good shape they roll great so you just got to somehow get it to stay on there that is a shot fired at his r or cup teammate Brian Harmon who he paired with last year in Italy so you can tell that they’re good buddies you can take that shot but there somebody that lives in Charlotte Colin he’s right I mean these are new greens they’re nine months old these greens so they’re that first bounce is going to be a big bounce yeah and we we’re starting to see that theme sort of come about with these players talking and referencing about these grains you know po Tri trivialis they’re overon over this uh this Bermuda that’s been several different different strains of Bermuda we we’ve had Tiff Eagle we’ve had Champion things like that but yeah they also do have the sub air system here too so they can get this golf course exactly where they need to get it and I don’t think that these players on the PGA tour play with fiery enough greens that often yeah I was about to say I think a lot of people are going to love watching these guys trying to hold shots onto these screens this weekend yeah I mean this golf course is is already difficult I I think over the course of the last five years the proximity numbers have been 40 feet on average so you think about this year you think about how the greens are a little bit harder you’ve heard every single player that we’ve interviewed say this is going to be an issue for them of where they’re carrying it Mad Max beat his good buddy Joel Damon in 2019 and then he went up to TPC pomac in 2022 and won the Wells Fargo Championship there they had it there because they had the President’s Cup here and Max was terrific in that performance when he came to Charlotte in late September another fun swing to watch is Sam Burns who carries about as much speed through transition as you will find anyone with on the PGA tour yeah we’re just warming up with some sh clubs here so you’re not going to necessarily speed see that speed that you’re referencing just yet Taylor bit almost as we watch him go through from the wedges up through the the mid IRS and into the longer stuff you’ll definitely see and it’s also too is it’s a speed that’s very consistent it’s a it’s a faster takeaway and a more consistent Cadence throughout the swing so it’s a very very much a a free flowing faster swing rather than what you would see with that slower takeaway and that sort of a more snatchy or faster transition down through the ball yeah what’s also what you see with Sam that’s you know we’ll see so many different ways to get the job done but you’ll see his right hip is still really an inflection uh at the top of his box Wing he doesn’t necessarily straighten that right leg to create easier rotation he doesn’t need to he doesn’t want to lose loading into that right glute um and you’ll see Sam do that over and over an incredible work ethic too a really hard worker on his golf swing you can see their longtime caddy Travis Perkins I tell you what they’ve made a great team together over the years since s sort of came out on the PGA to it I know they work very very hard on applying a sort a certain degree of math or or strategy you know to their game they know exactly where they have to hit it why they have to hit it there and you can see Travis just coming into the picture now just taking a look at these numbers a lot of these caddies now are so much more than just bag carriers they’re you know psychologists they’re a second set of eyes for their swing coach you know they are now a performance coach within the team as well to sort of make sure that everything is documented like I say they work very much on strategy a lot of these players you know have a team of people around them that uh you know their job is obviously get their uh than most out of this state and and I want to ask you guys about form because I’ve always said form is a Fickle thing early this season Sam had four straight top 10 on the PGA tour sixth at the American Express 10th at Pebble third at the WM Phoenix Open and 10th at the Genesis but he hasn’t had a top 10 since including a couple of miscuts you got to take advantage of that form don’t you because it just doesn’t stick around forever yeah it does and that’s just golf right you have your Tren you have your four five week cycle you hope to have a peak in that cycle it tends to come down a little bit he’s got a baby on the way and that’s a little distracting I let’s just say that’s a lot distracting um and exciting and so you know who knows as I said before hard worker incredible Focus I don’t want to say he hasn’t had the focus um but sometimes you just have other things in your life life gets in the way and you know now he’s coming back here playing well um hoping to get a week that is a great week as he heads into a major championship next week had a chance in a couple of those tournaments including the WM Phoenix Open where he had a great finish the man that won that WM Phoenix Open is Nick Taylor who lives there in Scottdale of course another proud Canadian Taylor won that event and will be the defending champion this summer at the RBC Canadian open Nick’s been out there playing a couple practice rounds already this week with some of his best buddies Adam hadwin and McKenzie Hughes yeah it’s kind of fun to watch Nick he’s an old school move uh to him we don’t see one of these new uh golf swings that we talk about with this powerful you know bow left wrist at the top huge clear as they work way down uh down into impact instead you know his arms hang under his shoulders he’s got that upright swing that’s very old school sometimes he gets a little steep in transition uh tries to get that to shallow better uh does a better job of that with the woods I got to like what he does too that’s part of his pre- short routine I’m not sure if you can pick it up but we’ll get another look at it here is watch the left foot of Taylor just as he sort of starts that sort of transition from the the back swing into the forward swing you watch this left foot he just gets it up in the air just a little bit it’s almost like a little sort of Step drill that you can employ just to try and get that weight on that left side no he didn’t do it there he does it every now and then and you’ll just see that left foot just little heel will come up he’ll top that tap that left toe and that just helps him sort of signal that sort of transition you know you know you could sort of turn the clock back a little bit you know Jack Nicholas used to always talk about that high left you know left heel coming off the ground he’d slam it down into the ground to try and get that sort of weight shifting onto the left side and I’ve seen Nick do it a number of times you just didn’t do it there the last two swing just little small swings but you know I think it’s a great opportunity to chat through you know the people that possibly could that could help right so if you feel like you are inflexible you you have some hip mobility um issues you you don’t feel like you have a whole lot of ability to rotate I’m lifting up that left heel certainly is an opportunity to do that and to your point in transitioning then putting that left heel back down as the arms stay back and the chest stays pointing at the Target would help a ton of people who play the game hit the golf ball better well so too as we spend the majority of time on the driving range working with some of these these more let’s just call them you know weekend golf where their first move is their upper body and and really if you could if you could sort of you know try and get someone to sort of focus on a lower body motion that’s what you’re going to see and we’re going to take a look at it here so when you think about this so he’s got a little curve in the upper spine you know that’s okay not everybody has a perfectly straight tailbone to back of the neck look to them that’s just depending on how rounded your shoulder holders are often times if you have a little round in the upper spaw and you try to make it straight you have a really hard time getting to the ground and certainly we don’t want that to happen um and then as they take the club back as Colin was mentioning you’ll see as Nick takes it back he gets a little steep on the way back um but that is his old school golf swing and the left heel while it didn’t come up for these wedges you see how those hands went outside that initial line that’s drawn straight down to the top and it for for today’s player you can see that left wrist position position very neutral you can see the face is slightly open uh at the top of that golf swing you don’t see a lot of bow or extension in that left wrist and as he comes down you see the left forearm higher than the right you see the left hip has cleared very flat footed in this particular picture as he comes down into what we call P6 as he get to p7 and impact and then through to p8 which is the shaft just parallel to the ground you can still see him in that spine angle um until well after after the club shaft has extended through the impact area to a beautifully balanced finish yeah one one thing to notice there too Susie was that just how vertical that shaft was you were talking about it when we look at you know that term that a lot of people like to use that laid off uh amount we’re going to have us look at some swings as the show goes on but you’ll see that club head is a long way behind some players and in that case they phick a little bit more vertical the entrance into Quail Hollow Club one of the iconic images that you see on the PGA tour each year someone walks away with a signature event this week for e for they have flags all over the property here that recognize each of the winners through the years of the Wells Fargo championship and there’s a flag for this man Jason day back in 2018 when he won the Wells Fargo Championship dressed a little differently than Colin than he is now yeah definitely change of pace there for Jay D used to be the the advocate for the schmedium these are a little more free flowing these days yeah a little bit more fabric you were on the bag for years with him and I know maintain a great relationship with Jason he has found some world class form again yeah definitely he’ve been doing a lot of work with Chris KO obviously you could just see him making a little motion there before he jumped in there to hit this shot trying to keep his chest down on top of the ball used to early extend a little bit what he would do there as early extension is basically a compensation for getting a little bit upright and Jason when he was going through a period there he got a little bit larger a little bit more bulky in the chest in the arm area really struggled to get the club across his chest at the top of his back swing pitched the shaft got a little bit steep in transition and as a result of that you have to kick the pelvis out a little bit in that sort of early extension to try and tilt the the club head underneath plane and now trying to get a little bit more rotational you can see he’s thinned out leaned out a lot gets the club a little deeper over that right shoulder and then there it is there that’s the move that he’s trying to make keep the the chest down to the Target when you keep the chest down towards the golf ball it actually kicks that that pelvis back and keeps you out of that early extension take a little bit of pressure off his back there yeah and it was so critical for him uh after his injury to to get rid of some of that side bend on the down swing which was creating so much pressure in the lower spine on his body so many people could be helped by that too will zot Taurus went through the same issues uh not necessarily exactly the same but due to too much side Bend he too is also working on really getting that left hip more out of the way the club exiting more left covering the golf ball as you mentioned coling keeping the chest over it it does produce a trajectory that’s also slightly lower and our Tracer technology provided by trackman there was a time where he was worried if he’d be able to continue to be competitive because of that injury it’s it’s great to see him healthy again being able to play with freedom and and still play with power Colin yeah we’ll take a look at it here as we start to break it down you can see here obviously just working with a little bit of a shorter iron here but if I draw a line straight up from the bull you can see there that he’s got a little bit more weight on on his left side at to dress there and that’s one other thing that he’s trying to do is to set up with a little bit more weight on that left side stay a little bit more centered post as we start to play this this back swing here just watch the left hat how it stays hard against that line on the way back now it’ll shift as they start that little surf or transition down into that sort of halfway down position but then just watch that little bit of backup there that’s a little bit of the old Jason day where he falls back a little bit through that that transition and that was one reason that he was able to access a lot of pin locations out on the PGA tour especially major championship super high ball ball hitter could hit it sort of over that sort of 135 140 Apex but now trying to stay down cover a little bit more you can see him there is one of those guys that likes to take a lot of video of his golf swing and uh Luke Reen there long time caddy he was uh also a student at The Golf Academy that Jason attended back when they were about 12 or 13 years of age very good player in his own right and uh it’s been a good addition to team day weather is terrific here in the Queen City we might have to dodge a shower tomorrow but wait till you see the forecast over the weekend it’s just one of the most beautiful spots on the map downtown Charlotte North Carolina we call it uptown e for it’s time now for Fantasy 4 presented by DraftKings let’s have some fun make some picks on what’s going to happen this week and let’s give wayy and swaton a budget here you have six golfers locked by the first tea time the salary cap is $50,000 and the scoring’s done player per hole finish streaks and bonuses and the salaries are provided by DraftKings daily fantasy sports as you can imagine Rory mroy is going to cost you the most coins Xander just barely below him in the defending champion is costing a ton of cash this week you get some more value with the rest of those players on the board so Susie Wy and Colin swaton are copious notet takers they love preparation how much time did you spend on this yeah this was an easy one I gotta be honest with you I didn’t spend that much time but I spent a lot of money so I picked Rory and for obvious reasons as everybody’s heard of he’s won here three times he has three top fives and a win already this year he drives the golf ball incredibly well he’s third driving distance better than he’s driven it all year long 19th in total driving I don’t know how you don’t pick Rory he’s literally come out and said this is my favorite golf course on the PGA tour I had to go with Rory and he’s got some good vibes as you just saw there winning with Shane Lowry a couple weeks ago Cole you going the same way or no yeah I’m going topheavy also with Xander Schley finished runner up here last year to Windham Clark also some really really good aspects of his game he’s had 11 events this year so far he’s had 10 of those top 25s he’s third in Strokes gain ta to Green we know that driving is important this week and also Strokes gain number third as well overall so plenty of Firepower in the tank and I think coming off the Masters I think really uh he’s going to be coming out and wanted to stamp his authority on this event and remember last year was right in the fight it threw the first nine holes he was right there with wam Clark before Clark raced out and won the event how about your next pick yeah I didn’t spend as much money on this one but I think it’s a good one Jake knp he’s already won this year I went with him because he’s a great driver of the golf ball and hits it really straight he’s also 11th in approach to the green which is going to be critical here the greens are hard they’re new 9 months old at the end of the day you’ve got to be able to hone in those iron shots he’s a good driver golf ball a good iron player it’s got to come down to his putting but I was willing to spend a whole lot less money for Jake n yeah and last week of course he had three great rounds in Texas not the best on Sunday but right in the fight last week at the CJ I’ve gone McKenzie Hughes the local ringer the local ringer I’ve gone him for a couple of different reasons obviously he’s great value uh but also too he’s a HomeTown boy here you know plays out of the Quail holer Club here in Charlotte he’s had not the greatest starts of the season one third at the valsar three top 25s but it’s the President’s Cup and it’s Nick Taylor Adam hadwin Cory Conners and obviously what Taylor pendrick did last week in moving up 12 spots into that 14th spot position leav him on the outside looking in and I honestly think he’s wants to make that team he spoke about it quite openly said he’ll trade his two wins in to be able to represent Captain Mike we in Montreal so look for big things this week he’s a proud Canadian but as you said he is a resident of Charlotte North Carolina and he has some of his cash of some of my cash rather in his pocket unfortunately speaking from past experience draftking Sportsbook is an official daily fantasy sports partner of the PGA Tour and this week customers can play free for your share of millions and prizes with your first deposit download the DFS app and use promo code range when you sign up DraftKings the crown is yours e for Quail Hollow Club in early may it is Springtime conditions this week at the qh a lot of the members in the summer like to spend the Fourth of July at Eagle Point that’s where this man won his Wells Fargo Championship Brian Haron over at the beach in mcginness country in Wilmington North Carolina won at seven years ago that was a funny shot that maxom took at Harmon earlier the greens are bouncing as about as big as Brian Haron is this week yeah exactly small guy and with a very efficient golf swing you can see his stance sometimes a little wider than his shoulder width obviously with the driver head behind the golf ball always always got a lot of side tilt uh at his address position beautifully soft arms on his takeaway I tell you what he’s got the hot of a line yeah you can see there how wide the feet are Johnny long of a drive is it from near Eagle Point at your house to Quail Hollow well it depends on how many times you have to stop and talk to the highway patrol on Highway 74 because that can delay things a bit oh no but it’s about three and a half hours maybe four if you drive the speed limit and they still I played out there last Friday they still talk about that week yeah you watch the little hand rotation there as Brian takes the club away a lot of right forearm rotation on that takeaway loves to wind it up he gets those hips about 45 degrees doesn’t he call in the shoulders about a 100 see his eyes rotate to the left when he does that yeah that is the old X Factor the difference between hip rotation and torso rotation the bigger that number generally speaking the more distance or power you can create in the goal swing that was a big throwback there to you know Jim mlan oh yeah back in the day I think he was the first to to Really sort of make that or coin that phrase so to speak yeah and you know as a small person you know you won’t see it here as much as he’s just changed to wedges but he just creates so much lag on the downswing just gives him a slingshot literally to launch the golf ball he is headed to the te in his proam start 11-11 start tomorrow mention the win over at Eagle Point at the beach seven years ago three other nice finishes here at Quail Hollow through the years as well let’s go through some of these fun moments gosh I will never forget standing right next to this I mean this place was up for grabs after the big cat on Sunday this was when he made his move to and ultimately would win the golf tournament the eagle here it comes the patented roundhouse right with put a winning jacket on a few holes later in 2010 Jim N on CBS said welcome to the big time first victory for Rory mroy on the PGA tour with a final round 62 two years later I think this was the biggest moment ever look at these crowds surrounding Ricky Fowler da points and Rory maroy as they went into a sudden death playoff what a shot for Fowler would set up the birdie Putt and that was his first win on the PGA tour iconic footage not only because of the crowd but because of the outfit and we talked about it over at Eagle Point seven years ago on the 18th green for the win Brian Harmon well we’ve talked about his driving and how straight it is but I tell you what it’s that weapon and look at that Embrace there Scott TW long time caddy Lam Clark has had three wins in the last 52 weeks all big events too two Signature Events in a US Open almost almost won it twice mooy’s done it three times saw J day there on the Range and Harmon as well and look at you James Han getting in on the action back in 2016 one name that’s not on that list that also won at Quail Hollow is this guy he won the PGA Championship his first of two back in 2017 at Quail Hollow Justin Thomas yeah what I love about this facility is the driving range is sort of you know in our camera to our left and you’ve got the the pitching and and chipping green and then the the putting green just across the small little C path there before it gets to the clubhouse and get a lot of work down here also too is this chipping complex here has a little bit of character to it a little bit of movement in it so a lot of these greens you can simulate some of the chip shots that you’re going to face here but this one a pretty standard little pit shot here for Justin Thomas got to love the Cadence and the flow to his chipping action it’s very very underrated aspect of his game and and you just take a look at this as he swings through here just look how soft that lead arm is here as he comes through it’s keeping it straight but not stiff you want to try and keep some degree of of motion movement and softness to it and uh he does it really really well especially around the greens yeah with how hard the greens are how we’ve heard them speak of them you’re going to see a lot of people over in this area not that you always don’t of course you do but even more so this week the expect is they’re going to miss some of these greens or the the golf Ball’s going to bounce long you guys seen when he was in Louisville on Monday he went back and he was honored as one of the distinguished citizens in the history of the city he was moved to tears I talked to his manager Lance yesterday in the locker room here at Quail Hollow and he said it was one of the more powerful things he’s ever seen Justin involved and it was so meaningful to him that his community in Louisville would Embrace him like that and cherish him as one of their most distinguished citizens of course he’ll be back in Louisville next week he will I saw a really cute clip on YouTube I believe it was where Justin was with his dad very little um and his dad had brought him out for the first time to play Valhalla and Justin didn’t know they were going to actually play the golf course he thought he was just going to see it as dad took him out as a surprise and take a peek at that cuz it’s a really fun watch it was called the hometown Heroes Banner dedication on Monday in Louisville and JT was emotional about receiving that cool to watch yeah special place for him wonderful honor and Cole we saw some good form you did in person at harbort toown the top five finish there there’s some notable finishes last year in the 20203 Wells Fargo Championship wam Clark and Xander schafle in that last group dueling it out and Clark outlasting the X-Men good finishes for Adam Scott and Tommy Fleetwood who are both here again this week and there’s JT’s name tied for 14th last year Tony feno’s the top 25 machine Colin he finished tie for 23rd here last year yeah it’s a great Golf Course for uh Tony fenale this week does drive it pretty straight for a big guy you know we’ve talked about how he could lengthen that that golf swing a little bit but you know doing a great job there with Boyd suah Hayes to keep it under control and keep that sort of compactness to the the GOL swing but you know great iron player sometimes around the greens we can see just a little bit of maybe indecision there maybe not as comfortable as he is but if he takes an approach this week to say hey if I can hit the middle of the greens and Putt to the corners a little bit more and it’s going to be a a situation where Greens in R this week are going to be a very very important statistic because a lot of these green comp complexes obviously we’ve talked about the new greens they’ve only been here for 9 months how obviously now because they’re new they are very very hard very firm you don’t want to be chipping all week if that area of your game is not necessarily on point what is him on point of those socks he always wears the high ones I love it yeah he loves to play golf with his family too his son on a PJ Junior League team we love that in the final championship last year we actually I bumped into Tony yesterday and uh he said oh it’s the voice of D fenale he was talking about you and I doing the PGA Junior League together and uh he said Team Utah is getting going uh this year in their quest to get back to the Junior League Championship oh they had such a strong team of course they will be back for that but he walked every step of the way cheering them on it was great you know you look at Tony 6’4 and uh just a dynamic and Powerful golf swing incredibly athletic um but he does have some traits that you typically don’t see um on the tour and and we’ll Point some of those out when I can draw some lines here um but he sits more than most you know and you’ll see his um his tail and butt is more outside of his heels which is you know in today’s game you don’t always often see uh the heels that far underneath uh that tailbone line and what you’ll also see with Tony is he likes to stand the shaft up very upright on the box swing um so that he can shallow it more on the down swing as he comes through on his takeaway you see his left arm parallel likes to stand it up so we can move that back just a little bit that shaft gets up very steep there and then you can see it reroute at the top you can see him lay that shaft back down on the down swing you see footwork is very quiet the club face at the Top’s a little open at the top with a cup left wrist um but you’ll see his knees lead as he comes through the lower body will clear as the shaft lays down and then he works kind of into that bold left wrist position through the impact area up into really nicely balanced finish but it’s a little different than you see most but keep in mind he’s 6’4 you don’t see a lot of people so they’re 6’4 on tour which is why Colin I’m not trying that at home what what Susie just perfectly described about this golf swing if I tried that at 5′ 10 I would immediately need to see call you about my swing problems well this is the beauty of this product is that we get to go inside the workplace of these athletes and I call them athletes because that’s an athletic move right there so we get to go inside we get to see not only how they prepare and and get ready to go out and do battle this week but also too the difference in the complexity of these golf swings everybody always says to me it’s like okay they all look perfect they all look on plane they all look different well that one there was just a classic example of how it can look a little bit different and but still be functional a guy I like a lot this week and again next week right here Xander Schley finished second last year terrific performance in this event it’s been a top five machine and major championships and a big time winner on the PGA tour but we’re looking for that first big moment in 2024 from the X-Men he’s just had such an incredible year already to date but to your point Players Championship uh so close just uh some other guys snuck in in front of him it has done that to a lot of people this year Scotty Sheffer of course winning that Championship I can just see the sea of orange there on the practice te you know trackman devices out there has a good look at it there some guys use a you know a GC quad you’ll see some flight Scopes out here but trackman definitely the choice for most of these guys and uh and to the the flexibility of what track man can do and and Xander is one of these guys that likes to use What’s called the performance center aspect of trackman where he can actually dial in a particular Golf Course hit the shots that need to be hit at that golf course and and what that allows him to do is to create some familiarity with shots you know question I always get asked is why do I play better on my home course comparative to other courses and because it’s your home course you play there all the time you know where the wind’s blowing from you know what the ball does when it lands on the green those sorts of things so here he’s able to put in the quo club play the golf course hit the shots that need to be hit if it’s an access or pin location that needs to be a little bit more accessible he can flight it and actually hit it on that practice you know range and and sort of simulate what they used to do in Cool Runnings for example let’s hear what Xander has to say about Quil Hollow you know a lot of the holes feel execution um it’s a big it’s a big boy Golf Course Championship style uh I’ve played it sort of overseed and uh with Bermuda it plays very different both times um this week with the rain the fairies seem to be a lot softer than they normally are usually your ball’s sort of bounding out of the Fairway into bunkers and into that Ry rough and you can kind of have to gauge it going into the greens when that are typically firm so uh I think it’s just a fun course to play and you have to execute shots kind of throughout the throughout the entirety of the tournament it’s a good point he makes Susie we’ve talked so much about the firmness of the greens but the rest of the golf course is a bit soft because we had a bunch of rain in Charlotte Sunday Monday and Tuesday yeah bitof so they’ll have to change some of their lines perhaps uh based on that and for runouts uh certainly favors the longer hitters those that especially carry the ball farther you’re not going to find as many shoots where they can find those alleys that will kick that ball forward for them um but depends on what happens the rest of the week whether there’s expectation of more water um or not and whether the wind comes up you know Colin you look at Xander you look at that load I think what he does so beautifully is in his setup he sets in so strong he works very hard on that you can see his legs I mean you’re not pushing Xander over if you walked anywhere near him from there and then he is so beautiful in the transition that arm swing that chest the chest all stays back as the lower body unwinds and clears and he just just repeats it consistently which is why he’s consistently in the top 10 week in and week out and you can see they’re just dialing in some numbers also there with long time cadd and I was like why is it oh really you want to see the most intense competitor in the field today it’s right here his name is Greg Olsen he’s one of the greatest Carolina Panthers of all time he plays just down the street at Carmel Country Club which is just about 5 minutes away from Quail Hollow and this guy lost in a sudden death playoff to Wesley Walls in the Monday celebrity putting challenge he’s not over that yet but the charitable money that was won by Wesley went to Greg’s charity the hardest yard Greg of course a great NFL analyst for Fox Sports now what do we think of this move well one thing GRE and if you’re if you’re going to be watching this back tonight is I’d say get off that right foot because that’s the reason that ball is heading left a little bit and there’s Luke Keeley who of course starred with Greg as a linebacker for the Panthers Luke has caded for Greg in this event for years it’s a great Duo there yeah I guarantee that he has a little left hip flexor inflexibility um you know he’s lovely little back swing good setup ready to go but that left tip isn’t getting out of the way at all which means that left tip probably doesn’t get out of the way easily all right Gio and Luke best of luck out you there to you guys now back to the pros the defending FedEx Cup champion Victor havin has been working on that golf swing All Season Colin yeah and the good thing here you can see that gentleman in the background there Diana delist is uh is a wealth of knowledge that would be the probably the the best way to describe it he’s just very very smart knows a lot about the body and swing connection here but you can see that little orange pole that he Victor has just out in front of him that is a start line drill so you can see him there just sort of pointing out where he’s actually scarios like I’m picking this more out so that’s one thing you can hear him there it’s just these are these are the moments where these players are on the Range you can see him actually just clip that little alignment stick there it is there he’s actually trying to start it left of that and get back to that sort of little fade you know we’ve talked about some of the characteristics of these gu golf swings getting that left wrist in flexion he’s one of the few guys that go from flexion into extension down in the golf swing has helped straighten it out yeah let’s take a look at this one here also gets it a little bit more like Tony fena where it gets upright a little bit now he starts to flatten it out and you can see there that ball just started a little bit too straight now if it starts straight and he’s trying to fade it then it’s going to start at the Target work away from it so it’s about matching that face and path relationship in order to do that now the hard thing as an instructor is to give the player the feel that’s based on the reality of what’s going on not necessarily what they feel feels some sometimes aren’t reals an interesting point and Susie I’m wondering when you’re going through a change in your swing and you don’t feel as comfortable are you more prone when you’re competing to working on that at home or do you work through it in tournaments this is only a seventh start it’s the 19th week of the year yeah you know I think what Dana is looking to do for him is just trying to get him back to just hitting the proper shots going back to the 1920 swing 2019 2020 swing of Victor Hing which you’ve heard say in multiple conversations that’s when he felt his best it wasn’t that he felt like he was playing poorly last year when he was playing great golf but didn’t feel right and Victor is all about hitting perfect golf shots and what they’re trying to do now is just trying to work together on hitting proper shots to proper targets as Colin mentioned making sure those start lines are correct for where he thinks the shot he’s hitting is going it’s first time we’ve seen him Tee It Up since the Masters saw a third Place finish that he had here three years ago that’s like even better meanwhile what is up with Matt Fitzpatrick now this is a new device that he’s got attached to both of his legs and his feet Colin and Susie will tell us coming up next we are on the range at Quail Hollow [Music] e e let’s take a look at the signature winners this year on the PGA tour Chris Kirk was Sensational both weeks in Hawaii winning the century and then having a chance the following week wendam Clark with a coarse record final round 60 at Pebble Beach winning the AT&T proam Dey matama with all due respect to wendam his final round be the final round of the year at Riviera with that 63 Scotty Sheffer get ready to see a lot of this guy winning the API presented by MasterCard getting some more cardigan and now he’s got some Tartan to go with the cardigan winning the RBC Heritage that is the last time we’ve seen him though as Scotty and Meredith are still on baby watch as of this morning wishing both both of them so well we miss him this week though if Quail Hollow look at this lead it’s just [Music] unbelievable and we hope to see him next week at the PGA Championship at Valhalla we have Matt Fitzpatrick in the field this week in Charlotte and Susie what is hanging from his left knee towards his right foot well it’s you know such conversation around Matt his increase in speed his gains uh you look at that band that’s to keep the distance between his legs as he goes into his down string so they don’t collapse and work away um that’s also for stability but what he’s talking about here is you just barely hear him but you can see how his right arm is swinging way out to the right he’s talking about how his feels are that he’s swinging way from in to out um and he’s trying to get left you heard him just say that I’m trying to get left how do I do that with this on you know we’re saying that’s what he’s saying because we can just barely hear him but the thing about Matt is he’s like a like a shallow draw like a shall sorry to stop but I prefer to hear him tell you than me but you can feel that shallow dry you see Mike Walker there he also works with Pete Cowen he’s showing you the angles there he doesn’t want to be way out to the right he wants to be over that shaft um and to do that what Matt Fitzpatrick tries to do is he puts that box there that’s in front of that club head that’s so he doesn’t swing too far out to the right on the down swing this is during the down swing we’re talking about the takeaway he drags the club inside gets the arms deep um left you know about halfway back his left arm which is parallel to the ground he’s working flatter and not upright um most players that are trying to get rid of into out are always going to take the club a little more in players that are trying to get more out or take the club slightly out and right now he just we saw him earlier too on the Range uh not happy with the way he’s hitting it going right going left he’s trying to get that face back in a position where he feels like he can actually make a golf swing that’s aggressive and when you feel like this you cannot make a golf swing that’s aggressive you just don’t feel like you can and you know part of being an instructor is listening and and what Mike is trying to do there is basically to sort of listening to what Matt is saying he’s saying shallow shallow shallow to an instructor that means more from the inside when an actual fact he feels shallow as being more down the line maybe he should check the head of the club again see if there’s some extra weight in there like at the uh at the Players a few weeks ago that seemed to work for him here’s some notable grouping Klay J day and Harmon at 1111 Windam Clark Xander shawley Shane Lowry right after that look at spe moraal and Fowler together that’ll be fun matama havin and theala lunchtime Rory mooy Max H and Tom Kim will have most of the property following them at 12:39 you can see it on ESPN plus our
