00:00But, Joe, let's talk some golf here.
00:01Brooks Koepka, how happy he is to be back on the PGA Tour.
00:06Every week is a new, fresh start for me.
00:10And I'm obviously, with my penalty, I'm not allowed to play every event.
00:14And if I get the chance to tee it up, I want to play.
00:19I've mentioned it a couple times.
00:20I've kind of fallen back in love with this.
00:21I'm enjoying the grind.
00:22I'm enjoying battling it out here.
00:25And it's, yeah, it's just a newfound love and newfound passion for the game
00:33and something I'm really, really enjoying, being back on the road
00:38and grinding it out and trying to find it in the dirt.
00:42I think there's something to be said about that.
00:44And each week is becoming more and more fun.
00:47And I very much enjoy that.
00:52Brooks Koepka at one time was the best golfer in the world.
00:55Took the money to go with Liv Goff.
00:56Out of sight, out of mind.
00:57Comes back to the tour.
00:58Reinvigorated here.
00:59But shout out the tour for charging him like $5 million to come back
01:03and then saying, well, you're not even allowed to play in every golf tournament.
01:05We'll tell you when you can play.
01:07So idiotic at this point.
01:08But he comes in, Joe, at a yes contract of $0.02
01:11to win the Byron Nelson first-round leaderboard challenge here, Joe.
01:15How about that?
01:16Can he be the first-run leader?
01:19Yeah.
01:19Listen, this is the old Byron Nelson, Donnie.
01:23It's not played in Dallas anymore.
01:24It's in McKinney.
01:26And Scotty Scheffler is your defending champion.
01:28But listen, Brooks has done well at this over the years.
01:32You know who else is from there?
01:33Jordan Spieth, who seems to have, you know, plays well early, doesn't play well late.
01:39And I'm not, listen, it's a tough stretch.
01:43It's eight consecutive weeks, two majors, three signature events.
01:47And then this one is right in the middle of it, Donnie.
01:50So it could be a lot of guys working on some things here as opposed to really trying to go
01:55out and win this tournament.
01:58I do think that the usual suspects, but I would throw Jordan Spieth in the mix here.
02:03He loves this place.
02:05Usual suspects to win this.
02:07Scotty Scheffler, 33% chance.
02:09Second place, Siwoo Kim, 6%.
02:10Scotty, can he get it done?
