00:00let's talk a little golf here with the players do you look at that cam as the fifth major the
00:05players championship as that kind of elite player but do you or do you still put it below um some
00:11of
00:12the other events that we have on tour i gotta be honest with you dan it's one of those things
00:16like
00:16people call it the fifth major know what i consider it a great golf tournament i would not say it's
00:20better than any major no no like it's a fantastic tournament and know why the players like it
00:24biggest person golf that's why it's the players the players like they're padding their wallets and
00:29i gotta tell you right now the first couple days played a lot easier than i thought but now they're
00:34talking about winds and some weather picking up there and things can get very interesting we have
00:38a ticket uh with uh aubert at 28 to 1 pre-tournament so i got that in my back pocket
00:43but dan i've been
00:44just looking at some statistics and some guys right now and i'm telling you if this guy could hit a
00:48couple putts victor hovland is four back and he's 27 to 1 on one of my sites i found him
00:5323 25 and i
00:54got a 27 so if you're looking for a guy four shots back victor hovland's burning the edges of
00:59some cups his chipping has been phenomenal and he's the type of guy you know this dan he can go
01:04low he's not afraid on a sunday he's been there before he's one big event so if you're looking for
01:08a flyer i'm praying that aubert gets it done today dan because i really need money as you see i
01:13just
01:13got a new shirt for my two shirt rotation i'd like to add another so let's get it done with
01:17him but
01:17i'll tell you watch out for victor hovland the player from norway it could be a scandinavian battle
01:22there dan we got a swede and a norwegian it's like the olympics absolutely it's like hockey a
01:28little bit here too um hey so if you were to put money on this what's a tougher golf shot
01:3317 at the
01:34players or 16 at augusta i'd say 16 at augusta the one thing about the players on 17 if the
01:42wind's
01:42picking up it's a disaster but dan you know the you know what you got to do put it on
01:47the damn green
01:48just find a way to put it on the green and don't let it roll with backspin into the collar
01:53or you're
01:53going to have a really weird stance but i'm going to tell you 16 at augusta to me uh like
01:57one thing
01:58about augusta is we know every shot every hole name of every hole i've been watching it since i'm five
02:04years old it's just like it's like a book that you read again and again and again and it never
02:08gets old
02:08the players is great but augusta it's special dan i went there once covering it for a canadian television
02:14station up here the score and uh news station and i'm going to tell you dan it was probably the
02:18like best week of my life it was unbelievable we were up at 3 30 in the morning our company
02:23had no
02:23money i'm driving in from thompson georgia like an hour and a half away didn't care talked to steve
02:28stricker a one-on-one and that was the year my buddy the red-headed my red-headed friend brent
02:33snedeker was leading all the way the kid from vanderbilt almost getting it done and at his press conference
02:39he was bawling i was crying for him because we became friends he gave me like a 20-minute interview
02:43and a lot of the other golfers are like you're going okay buddy whatever this guy gave me the
02:47time of day and he was leading with three holes to go the year that trevor immelman won
