00:00He tore heads to Hilton Head, South Carolina.
00:02It was a little unclear as to whether or not
00:04Scotty Scheffler was going to play in the RBC Heritage,
00:07but he announced that he will play this week.
00:10So naturally, he is going to be the overwhelming favorite
00:13and always a very compelling tournament,
00:16usually down to the end,
00:17especially when they get the big names back
00:19and some of them are indeed playing this week.
00:21Yeah, I love this tournament, Craig.
00:24You go from the green jacket to the tartan plaid coat.
00:27I wore my tartan plaid, you know, red jacket here.
00:30I've actually played Harbortown before.
00:32And it's just this wonderful, like, semi-vacation
00:36after the big to-do and the hoopla surrounding the Masters.
00:40You know, go down to the Lowcountry, chill out.
00:43And a few years ago, this tournament got a real shot in the arm
00:46when they made it a signature event.
00:48So now you've got all the best players here as well.
00:51Great golf course, great tournament.
00:53It's a really good two-week stretch.
00:56And I think the perfect fit for after the Masters.
00:59Scotty, one of the only guys, if maybe the only guy,
01:01that when he won the Masters a couple years ago,
01:04went on and won the Heritage as well.
01:06So he's done extremely well here in the past.
01:09And what's interesting, Craig,
01:11is it's like a polar opposite of the Masters.
01:14Augusta National is just this massive, huge property.
01:18And Hilton Head is this little, tiny, compact, claustrophobic, coastal design,
01:25accuracy-based, that type of thing.
01:27And the Masters is such a big-boy track.
01:29But I love this course.
01:31And we'll see if we can.
01:32We had a good Masters.
01:33We got a lot of top 20s.
01:35We did well on our matchups.
01:36We just couldn't hit the outright.
01:38We'll see if we can get it this week.
01:39All right, so who do you like this week with Xander, 15-1, Fitzpatrick, 16-1?
01:45A lot of bunched-up players after Scotty at 4-1 or 4.5-1.
01:50Yeah, my friends at BetMGM, I got a note this morning,
01:54almost 50% of the tickets are on Scotty Scheffler to win this golf tournament.
02:00Or maybe it's Handel.
02:02Just getting overwhelming support at BetMGM.
02:05I did not land on him.
02:07One thing that is similar about Hilton Head to the Masters is the stickiness.
02:12Guys that play well here typically do so year in and year out.
02:16Patrick Cantlay is an absolute machine here.
02:19I took Cantlay.
02:21I took Russell Henley, who had a great Masters.
02:24And then I took three guys who missed the cut at Augusta.
02:27Maybe an extra couple days off, we'll give them the rest that they need.
02:31And that was Akshay Batia, Daniel Berger, and Robert McIntyre.
02:36So McIntyre, Berger, Batia, Henley, and Cantlay at Hilton Head.
02:41So, let's do it.
