what’s up guys Rick here with your preview for this week’s RBC Canadian open we are headed north of the border and this kicks off an unbelievable stretch of golf not that we haven’t been through one already but off the top of my head we’ve got uh this week which has turned into an unbelievable event the memorial the US Open Travelers right I mean we’re just we’re just running right now Signature Events major championships National opens should be an absolute blast we’re going to take some time to go through the golf course this field everything in between using data logic and reason to try to figure out what we can for this week let’s jump into it this is my website Rick rung good.com basically everything you see from here on out will be from there it’s a giant database for uh Fantasy Golf and and golf betting and just golf in general quite honestly so we’ve got a golf course problem or better yet we have a golf course and data problem for this week because we’re going back to Hamilton remember they’ve moved this event around the last couple of years and and it was at uh Oakdale last year when Nick Taylor won and now we’re back to Hamilton for the first time since 2019 that’s when Rory won this event he’s actually won it a couple of times um and then they played it in 2012 so so 12 years there is only two instances of us going to Hamilton so when you look at the key stats here they’re going to be I don’t want to say unreliable but it’s a very very small sample size and it is is over a dozen years I don’t know how seriously you want to put anything into this um I’ll show you the the satellite imagery here in a second but it loves putting it loves around the green it loves approach it does not take into consideration driving very much I find that to be a little bit wonky um so you can use this and you can take the last 36 rounds or however many number of rounds you want and adjust the fit for these golfers and realize that some of the guys to the top like Aaron cochell have very small sample sizes so your best adjusted fits are like Alex Norton Alex Norton Martin lard Aron badley Rory maroy Ben Griffin but I think we can attack this a little bit better um I know some of you find this incredibly interesting and Incredibly valuable and some of some of you hate this part but for a golf course that we haven’t seen that work has been done to and it is a composite they play two they play holes from two courses at Hamilton uh the West course and the South course getting the satellite imagery and starting to map it out I think is is the pathway here and the one through line as I was doing this is the guys who can carry the ball like 310 yards I think have a pretty big Advantage here so I I’m looking at distance now 310 is a little bit arbitrary but that’s because it depends a lot on te’s it depends a lot on wind it depends a lot on that but you know here’s whole number one if you can carry at 305 you can basically remove all of the trouble all of the Fairway bunkers here right you can just carry this bunker fly it down there and not have a lot of issues um hole number two it’s a little bit longer there’s just a a fairway bunker that pinches in just a hair at about 318 if you can keep it right at that or carry it you’ve opened it up uh wide open you can you can basically do whatever you want you’ve removed a lot of the trouble um number three is kind of a weird hole and it looks like I mean from the imagery and I know they’ve done work to this golf course you can you can kind of see here so you’ll either have to decide to and again this will be T dependent um you know the Fairway runs out about 310 or you could try to carry it over that into like the secondary Fairway or you could try to carry the whole thing which would be um like 330 again that’ll be wind and and weather and uh tea dependent par five this one you just got to hit kind of a big boy shot here but everybody’s going to have to hit that so the long hitters are still going to have an advantage five is basically a drivable Par Four if you are um if you are long enough that’s this this yellow line is at 300 so 318 is the is the PIN position here so I don’t need to go through all of these holes but as you’re as you’re looking at it the way that I Envision this is a lot of the trouble off the tea is in the form of Fairway bunkers and then getting uh super Wild Well if you can remove half of those uh issues by driving it and carrying it 310 yards or so um you’ve removed a lot of the trouble so looking back at I mean and here’s another one like this like Rory is just going to cut this dog like at at any point that he wants right I mean this yellow line is 300 if he takes it over these trees here to the Fairway that’s going to be I mean that’s 321 he could go a little right of that and cut it down to like three I mean it’s just he can and then he doesn’t even bring in these Fairway bunkers at all so he the the ability it’s not just distance it’s almost like carry distance if you can carry that I think you remove a lot of a lot of the trouble um and then as the week goes on you know we’ll get some more reports from how thick the Ruff is and stuff like that we can cover it more on the Wednesday live chat 3 pm eastern time um Rick run good YouTube channel and it’s just you know it’s it’s weird right we haven’t played here in five years um they’ve done work it’s it’s a composite golf course in general so we have a lot of data but I I feel that the long hitters are are probably going to have a pretty good run at this place or at least off the te be able to minimize a lot of those trouble spots and then we’ll kind of work backwards from there on on Wednesday and when we get into the custom model here in just a second let’s go over to the cheat sheet and start breaking down this field actually before we do that um if you find any of this valuable hit the like button it helps me goes a long way the splash contest that we’ve been doing every single week is growing and it’s filling fast so this is a guaranteed purse uh this week it’s up to 300 entries it is a $5,400 guarantee it’s already one6 full and it’s Monday morning so this is going to fill pretty quickly so there’s a link in the description if you want to get involved in this um and get that rocking and rolling the I I had three entries in it last week and forgot to fill out two of them so I’m free money in these um so yeah I think it’s a pretty good place for you to uh take a take a stab at in the money’s guarant will continue to grow it if if the demand warrants it here’s the cheat sheet there are four golfers over $110,000 led by Rory mroy at 12,100 sah thala at 105 Tommy Fleetwood at 103 Shane Lowry at 101 lot of interesting stuff there I do think there’s a pretty significant gap between Rory maroy and sahith and then kind of a smaller gap between sahith and Tommy and then Lowry love the guy think he’s interesting I think he’s just a little bit like they had to throw somebody else in the 10K range I’d be I’d be a lot more interested if Lowry was priced where Sam Burns is at Mid 9ins it’s just we’ll see we’ll see how it all shakes out but um Rory’s the second longest in this field behind just Cameron Champ he is and has shown so 2019 this is this is the year that we were at Hamilton so you know Rory won Lowry T2 um sah and Tommy didn’t play that year we saw him take apart uh Hamilton in this way before right and you know I don’t I don’t know why I mean maybe it’s because Scotty over Shadows everybody but Rory’s having a really good season right the back-to-back wins at the Zurich the Wells Fargo a T12 at the PJ Championship is never going to be anything to sneeze at I’ll pull up his Canadian open stuff here just so that we can look at that and get his um so here’s his Hamilton numbers gained nearly seven strokes off the T which that kind of makes sense because he has a unique skill set to be able to separate himself off the te in kind of a big way around Hamilton now there’s going to be questions about you know can he can he fit the rest of his game around this place if you look at what he’s doing recently the approach play has been great he’s gained 10 Strokes on approach over his last two starts the short game has been great he’s uh picked up Strokes in three three in a row measured events there that doesn’t even the Zer classic win and then the putter um the Putter’s been definitely more good than bad and he and it’s only been you know below zero so lost one and a half Strokes putting at the RBC Heritage so I’ve got I’ve got no problems getting as much exposure to Rory M here as possible what I’m hoping for and what I’m interested to see is how many go for Rory over sahith I again I think there’s a big gap between these two but I cannot describe how impressed I’ve been with the growth and maturation process that we’ve seen from sah he is an excellent driver he’s only lost Strokes once dating back to the Pebble Beach proam that was a minuscule loss at the RBC Heritage less than two10 of a stroke over four rounds and he finished second there um he is becoming a much more consistent ball Striker he’s a phenomenal putter the around the green play lets him down it does now these are 6,000 square fet uh Green’s on average if he can hit hit more greens than um than kind of his Baseline he doesn’t have to tap into those those short game situations a little bit I’m interested in that what I’m even more interested in is the just extreme differences that we have seen from the golf courses that sah has had success on I’m just going to read off some of his best results this year runner up at the at caloa fifth in Phoenix sixth at Bay Hill Ninth at Sawgrass runner up at Harbortown 12th at Valhalla I I mean we’ve run the gamut there major championships Signature Events the differences between Bay Hill and the plantation course to harbort toown are like the three ends of a three- ended Spectrum right like it they’re just so different and I think that’s the biggest sign of a really strong player is that they are not tied to any one specific uh course fit or anything like that so really interested to see what the public does with sah I will likely be piling in one of those two in as many lineups as possible and that is not a knock on Tommy Fleetwood it is not a knock on Shane Lowry I’ll pull up fleetwood’s numbers here just so that we can see them um you know I’m I’m a little bit worried that Tommy’s awesome well-rounded game isn’t always going to allow him to find a lot of ways to separate from the field here I kind of need an elite skill set here I need something preferably you hitting the ball very far um Tommy plays better at major championships difficult conditions um couple over par or couple under par or you know 11 under par going to win the golf tournament something like that and his results have been fine t-26 at the PGA Championship t-13 at the Wells Fargo t49 at Harbortown and then he had those really great finishes back toback top sevens at at Valero and the Masters for $10,300 you kind of need a lot from Tommy might have to win and if not win he’s probably gonna have to finish better than Rory and sah I’m not sure that’s happening the last time we saw Tommy Fleetwood over $10,000 I’m just going to sort here by salary um it’s happened a handful of times in his career he did it on the European tour couple times the most recent time he did it on the PGA tour was 2021 if I’m reading this correctly looks like the Zozo championship in 2021 he was $10,000 flat he finished t7 um if you look at all the times he’s kind of been one of the favorites you’ve gotten it’s like 15 or 20 times he’s been over $10,000 he has a win handful of miscut or a couple miscuts mostly just finishes between 20th and 40th not a lot of high-end stuff from the top of the board not that that cannot happen again or not that that that he can’t break through but that’s I think it’s just a lot to pay for somebody who’s going to have to beat two guys who I think are significantly in better spots and then Shane Lowry um you know the PGA Championship he gained nine and a half Strokes putting that is um the best putting performance of his career he finished T6 before that he had lost 19 Strokes putting in his last three measured events um and basically 21 in his last four measured events so that feels fluky it feels like he’s not well I’m I’m almost certain he’s not going to gain nine and a half Strokes putting again um if even if that comes down even if he gains three which is something he doesn’t do all that regularly he’s going to have to find other ways to to make that up and still beat some of these guys so this is just a stat profile that I I fear that there is some pretty significant regression the 9k range very small range Alex noren cam young Cory Connor Sam Burns Maverick mcneel and Adam Scott that is it I find this to be fascinating um I’m not entirely sure what to do here I I think that this is a spot where I would love to just continue to go back to Alex noren I don’t think people realize how good he’s been and all even show you on the power rankings here last 36 rounds everybody in this field uh it’s Richard T Lee who plays like you know this is raw Strokes gain so 1.8 so that is not PGA Tour stuff Rory mooy number one Alex noren number two Maverick mcne number three okay so we’ll talk about both those guys norin and mcney noren’s been unbelievable if you’ve watched this channel we have been just getting a ton of value and a ton of Love out of Alex nor he is now the most expensive that we’ve seen in quite some time although he was over 10K in punana but that was an alternate field event but look at these results I mean just well-rounded awesome second shots are great short game has been very very good I don’t believe this is the greatest course fit for him I don’t um I worry that he’s not long enough I what I would hope for Alex norin is that we get reports from our you know our boots on the ground that the rough is very very thick right like that’s what that’s what would be great for norin and and the hope would be that he could play out of the Fairway not lose so much off the tea and then tap into some of his strengths which kind of come from there so that would be my hope I think that’s the pathway for for norin cam Young on paper this should be a great spot for him right we’re talking about um Bomb It carry distance the concern for him would be what he did at the PJ Championship which is he lost seven strokes on approach outside of that and the three that he lost at Harbortown he’s been immaculate ball striking it’s it’s a major championship and Harbortown is an extreme like I can make excuses for the guy Harbortown is an extreme uh one end of the spectrum course on the PGA tour and Valhalla listen I was out there it’s it wasn’t easy I know they I know they kind of crushed it but that that course was not easy we saw some guys put up some some really bad numbers I willing to buy and say he’s not going to lose seven strokes on approach again he’s going to get back to this gain two three four strokes on approach use the driver as a weapon etc etc uh Cory Connors you know I’m probably just ensuring his victory here but just not really interested right I mean he’s he’s just the king of t11 to t26 he missed the cut here in 2019 in Hamilton um I think the I think I actually believe the venues that we went to in recent years outside of Hamilton have been much better for Cory Connors than than this one is so that worries me um MC let’s do McNeely real quick he had the round of the day on Sunday last week at the Charles Schwab challenge um which doesn’t really mean anything except maybe he’s vibing a little bit but when you start adding that up to everything else that he’s been doing he’s now gained Strokes to the field in every single event since the Farmers Insurance open that was in late January okay and you’re getting a bunch of decent results t23 at the PJ t17 at the Charles SCH challenge this is probably going to end up being I imagine a weaker field than the Charles schab challenge right because that had that had Scotty it had Colin it had hom it had um there somebody else on missing at the top I can’t remember but the this is going to be like Rory and then everybody else so I imagine the strength of field is going to be is going to be weaker here this might be a pretty interesting spot again I don’t think it’s a great fit for him but his it is a better fit for his short term than it is for his long term right and his his 100 round data and all that stuff getss really really skewed because of of him trying to play through injury in 2023 this is him back healthy again which is just a really good sign and you can see that in the power rankings right last 36 rounds he’s the third best player in this field behind just noren and um and Rory finally Sam Burns is here I’m not I don’t feel the need to talk about everybody but I’m having fun I just like I don’t know what happened here with Sam Burns he is such a talented player I believe he’s the modern type player on the PGA tour we’ve seen one or two rounds at a time in which he has flashed Brilliance and and just zero consistency so I I don’t have any reason to think he’s going to figure it out this week other than hope and and I realize that hope is not a strategy so um unfortunately Burns is probably not going to get much exposure for me but show me something let’s let’s roll let’s come on Sam we can we can do that okay the AK range and again if you find any of this helpful hit the like button it really helps my channel so I don’t I don’t find this to be super exciting but I think there are a couple of of Dart throws here firstly if we go to the trends tool we can see who’s playing above and below their Baseline the first 8K golfer that we get to is Aaron Ry he’s $8,900 he is playing about uh uh not about exactly 0.14 Strokes over his Baseline which turns him into a 83 golfer so using his Baseline then using the way that he’s trending um so he’s the first guy the best guy in the 8K range that shows up uh Keith Mitchell and OE are not far behind OE is basically playing to his own his Baseline here just just right at it um Keith Mitchell however is playing a third of a stroke over his Baseline and he’s doing it with the T to Green game in fact he’s actually not even putting all that well um compared to his 100 round South but he’s picked up 2third of a stroke from T to Green so I imagine I’m going to scroll down here and look at the breakout candidates tool I think Keith Mitchell is going to be on the correct side of this let’s see uh where are you yeah he’s right here okay so you want to be in this upper leftand quadrant that is guys who are hitting it above their baseline from uh T to green and then putting below their Baseline the idea being if they get back to putting regularly and some guys that’s good bad or different they have a lot of juice to squeeze out of their game um it gets a little skewed because Mike we we’ve got very small data on on Mike Weir plays a lot on the senior tour so some of these some of these smaller sample siiz guys stretch out the uh graph a little bit but it is still like you can still see who guys who are on the correct side here like norin Maverick mcney Keith Mitchell Bryce Garnett Shane Lowry Harry Hall Johnny Vegas all those guys are in the correct quadrant if you’re not there you want to be in the upper right quadrant uh if you’re not there you want to be in the bottom left quadrant although that’s not great and then if you are if you have no other option you don’t want to be in the bottom right quadrant which means you are not hitting it as well as you normally do and you are getting lucky with the putter so that’s just like the the worst place to be but this makes Keith Mitchell pretty interesting here the way that his stat profile shakes out and the fact that he does have an elite skill set the driver and I’m not a big like I don’t play I don’t have a lot of exposure to Keith Mitchell most weeks I know he’s very popular in uh um in our industry I just I mean I look at this profile and I see a guy with a bunch of you know t17 to t37s and I I don’t get super excited about it but I think that this is a a pretty good opportunity to get in on Keith Mitchell and again I I don’t if you play them every week just play them again if you are trying to pick your spots this feels like a a pretty decent spot you can see the ball striking metrics are Immaculate the putter is um it’s getting there is and the distance off the te is what I’m really I’m really excited about okay so he’s 15th in driving distance on the PGA tour he’s got a you know great Club head speed he’s seventh from T to Green he’s fifth off the T so there’s a lot of good stuff there so I’m I’m I’m hoping that uh Hamilton is is a better spot for him he has he did not play here in 2019 he did Play the Canadian open in the last two years he missed the cut last year in t7 the week before the uh the other guy that popped up there was OA but he’s just kind of playing to his own Baseline he’s coming off two two straight Mis Cuts you know it’s interesting the one that I’m trying to figure out is Tom Kim right and we’ve been tracking uh Tom here for I mean obviously like all year but I’m just waiting for something to happen um the putter since the Tas open has been good enough for me it is not the elite level of putting that we saw when he first broke onto the tour or anything like that or when he’s got a couple of his wins but it’s good enough he’s driving it a lot better PJ Championship he picked up six Strokes uh off the 2.6 last week at the at the Charles Schwab awesome we need to fix this it’s the second shot which was uh and Still Remains you know Tom Kim’s weapon right that that’s that’s supposed to be his weapon when he came on tour the numbers were outrageous we’ve got to fix that and they are getting better so he lost three Strokes on Approach at the Wells Fargo he lost half of that at the PJ championship and he was almost a zero at the Charles so if we continue in that direction we’re going to get a pretty decent week um the other thing that I wanted to look up for Tom Kim oh I want to look him up on the trends tool here because I bet you uh he’s probably one of the hottest off the tea guys is that true where are you Tom Kim did I scroll past you well actually I guess I could just do it by salary he’s in the 8K range find him that way here we go Tom Kim okay I’m sorry uh approach is what I was referring to he is down a half a stroke to himself so last 36 rounds compared to his 100 round Baseline he’s losing half a stroke on approach to himself it’s a huge number it’s a huge it’s one of the biggest losses you’re going to get in this category actually Coo’s down to himself sneaker I mean these are guys that don’t contend anymore right um fleetwood’s down pretty significantly to himself and Tom Kim down to himself in approach now Fleetwood has picked it up around the green and with the putter Tom Kim has not okay so Tom Kim is basically his 100 round self off the tea around the green and with the putter but he’s losing a half a stroke here I don’t know what this diet tribe means but I’m hopeful right I mean just just a stat guy like I’m hopeful that he can progress is that what it’s called back to himself um so yeah I don’t know I don’t have any I don’t have anything else to say there here’s Nick Taylor um won this event last year did not win it here finished t27 at Hamilton uh shout out to my Canadian friends whoops not Hamilton Nick Taylor my Canadian friends who this week um uh they released a Nick Taylor bobblehead if you know anything about me I love a good bobblehead love bobbleheads and they immortalized uh the Nick Taylor you know the club throw when he throws the club after making the putt to win the Canadian open last year as a bobblehead limited edition they didn’t sell many of them only shipping to Canada so I tried to I tried to go and buy them I was like I’ll buy like 100 of these I don’t care they only shipped to Canada which is probably how our Canadian friends feel all the time when they can’t get stuff shipped or their Netflix is different or whatever but I was like appalled by that so um luckily uh I’ve got some good friends in Canada who were able to uh send me one so all all good I will have that on the Shelf as soon as possible I was trying to pull up a profile here and hoping to see some good stuff out of Nick Taylor and I and I’m not um the four straight events in which he’s lost Strokes on approaches is very concerning considering the fact that he from the Sony Open to valpar was a big gainer in that category if that was the only thing that was wrong I might be able to overlook it but he’s hemorrhaging around the greens he is not putting well um he is he looks very far from himself so other than the idea that he is going to chug maple syrup this week and kind of just have that flowing through his veins and he’s going to play well um that’s the best case that I can make for him because the statistical case is is not really there Davis Thompson just like pull my string and loop back like every Davis to like every week I’m like this guy this guy this guy then I still think he’s on the verge right I mean T2 at Merle Beach Classic t17 at the Charles Schwab he’s got a bunch of top 25s recently he’s like he’s he’s rounding into form this is this is happening for him anyway um the Ian that you might consider if uh there’s going to be probably a lot of run on Nick Taylor and and Adam hadwin is Taylor pendrith he’s got the skill set that sets up best for Hamilton um missed the cut at the PGA Championship but he lost a half a stroke there so he missed the cut what on the number gain Strokes off the T lost a little bit on approach which is fine a small gain around the green he lost the stroke P like this is this is like a nothing like this is hardly a a blip on the radar to to have a a fairly solid PGA Championship miss the cut on the number like I don’t care at all especially when um you know you’re coming from you’re coming from uh you know T10 at at the Wells Fargo Championship for example and not to mention the win at the Byron Nelson two straight top 11s before that so I mean like this is if you got if you got punished if you know 10% ownership which is the most that uh pendrith has had since the Mexico open in February if you are one of those who got punished on him at missing the cut there forgive quickly would be would be would be my suggestion Davis Riley 300 to1 winner last week congrats Davis Riley absolutely not on my radar whatsoever um I want to look up Robert McIntyre for a second and I want to look up Sheamus power so let’s start with Robert McIntyre I got to see how he’s driving it because we’ve gotten a couple of good results okay so drove it well on Myrtle Beach drove it well at the PGA Championship finished 13th and eighth there gave it all away lost a stroke off the te was really bad on Approach at the Charles Schwab missed the cut wouldn’t mind trying that out one more time okay would would not mind trying that out one more time he’s he’s decently long in this field he’s not going to be able to take Rory lines obviously but he’s but he’s decently long and then Sheamus power who is not but Sheamus power has been starting to put together some decent results here and I just want to see where he’s at so miss the cut to Byron Nelson yeah I mean this is this is a very in I mean look at this uh plus 2.5 – 2.8 plus 4 and a half – 4 plus 4.4 – 22 plus four so I guess via the pattern we are headed for a minus four missed cut but if you don’t believe in that there are at least ups there’s at least upside here right so that’s that’s um um seven events four of them he’s gained at least two and a half Strokes to the field and has finished inside the top 25 this will be probably the weakest field that he’s seen during that period so he is at least showing the upside there and he will not model well because of this every other miscut type of type of situation 6K range what can we glean from from here last 36 rounds Andrew Novak’s the best player in the field he’s gaining half a stroke per round okay uh aliser aliser dockerty I believe is how he pronounces this he just was in it on the corn fairy so now we’re getting guys yeah okay so you can find some Diamonds in the Rough here um so primarily a corn fairy Tour player finished T3 six what was that last week at the Advent Health Championship or the week before not last week last week was Knoxville then he played the alternate field event in Myrtle Beach and finished T2 now he puted the lights out that’s not going to happen again eight Strokes gained putting but he gained four ball striking and 3.7 off the t is he long is he long he’s got some decent corn fairy results obviously a little bit of um yeah he is long so he doesn’t have enough I mean he’s got like one qualified PGA tour start but 307 driving distance on all drives that would rank him again that is one start in Myrtle Beach that would rank him like third in this field fourth in this field almost certainly top 10 so interesting I’m interested this is where you start to find some of these guys that are uh kind of between tours and trying to figure out and which is why I love the the uh the global cheat sheet here right because you can just hover and see that was a COR Fair event oh that was a PGA Tour event right so you know go check out Rick rung good.com so um where was I oh I’m sorry I was I was not even scrolled I was scrolled down the best player in this field is Richard T Lee in the in the oh he’s in the six he’s in the $5,500 range so he finished eighth in at on an Asian Tour event 22nd on the Asian tour 13th on the Asian tour 26th on the Asian tour missed the cut at the Korea championship t16 on the Asian tour so he’s been crushing the Asian tour I don’t necessarily know how that translates obviously he’s going to get a a stronger field this time around but um I don’t know we’ll see Kevin TW I kind of poo pooed Kevin TW last week I did not think last week was a good spot for him and he played fine right I think he finished 20 yeah 24th this is definitely a better fit for him but I hate to see that he lost Strokes off the teeth at Wells Fargo I hate see that he lost Strokes off to T at Charles Schwab he Lo he’s lost ball striking in every measured event dating back to the V barar this is a better fit for him the stat profile is still like the rug is about to be pulled that’s what the stat profile says if you want to go with the ey test I feel you and this is a better spot for him but the the the rug pool is coming on Kevin TW that’s just the way the stats look I I like the guy frankly oh man the the fall of of Eric Cole $6,800 my goodness that is not great what else do we have here MC mner 13th at Myrtle Beach fifth at the Charles Schwab not a great fit for him but playing very good golf and he has a lot to play for Paton kazy sneaky good right we haven’t seen him since Myrtle Beach um 10th there 24th at the Byron Nelson 23rd in pun Tana not bad there let’s go to the 5K range there are guys in the 5K range Richard T Lee was down there oh boy um it’s not great I mean if you wanted to take a flyer on Richard Lee I wouldn’t beat you up for that cam champ no can’t go to cam champ Patrick Fishburn is a long enough driver 28th in distance on this field has a couple of good results fourth of the zerk I know it was the zerk but 23rd in pakana 20th at Myrtle Beach that might not be bad couple of these other guys here I mean Pearson Cy did not have a good Sunday um but has now got couple of top 25s finished fifth at the Charles Schwab he’s long 16th in this field he flushes it got to get more consistent but he flushes is it Stuart sink these two these two back-to-back top nine finishes are both Senior Tour events so I’m not putting too much stock in that okay I’m like a Hayden Buckley truther um I he is he’s he’s too good like he’s got so much Raw Talent so two guys so Hayden Buckley and Trace Crow let’s start with Hayden Buckley he is is too good to have all of this horrible all these horrible results in 2024 he is starting to come around and finally T5 at the Charles Schwab where he gained 2.8 Strokes ball striking he’s gained off the T and three straight yes he putted his light puted his ears off but at least he gained in those other areas and then Trace Crow is is is a very cheap combination of uh long and straight right so Myrtle Beach finishes t32 t 22 in Knoxville last week that was the corn fairy tour um he had a t11 earlier this year in in in punana but if you look at his profile here last 36 rounds where are you trace he is first in driving accuracy and 53rd in distance that’s a pretty darn good combination okay let’s see what the model has to say we’ll run a model here on rickun good.com uh I’ve also loaded in corn fairy we don’t have the salaries yet but corn fairy European tour Senior Tour when the salaries are ailable those be loaded in but all the stats are loaded in okay let’s say um let’s do the weighted Strokes gained again because we’ve got Richard T Le who’s going to pop up in every single stat and we got to kind
