00:00So most recently, I saw Scotty Scheffler talking about wanting to visit New Zealand and whether it's just going to
00:06visit the country in itself or even play a golf tournament over there or just playing golf in New Zealand.
00:12What do you think, seeing a guy like Scotty Scheffler talking about wanting to go and play and visit New
00:20Zealand and how cool that could be for a potential, you know, the PGA Tour is now the DP World
00:25Tour.
00:25We've got the Asian Tour. In your mind, could you ever see a world in which PGA Tour has some
00:30type of sanctioned event in New Zealand?
00:32And in your mind, is that feasible or possible?
00:38I'd like to say yes, but I don't know if we're a big enough market for it, but we definitely
00:44have some scope to have something great.
00:48Well, New Zealand Open is a great event down there. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to go down the last
00:52few years with how the schedule's worked out.
00:54But, you know, you get to play in Queenstown. It's just an amazing place. Like, everyone that goes down.
00:59We're talking to Tom Kim about it the other day. He played down there a few years ago.
01:03And, like, we're still talking about it. Like, he loves it. He wants to go back at some point.
01:07Like, again, schedule probably makes it very hard to. But, like, everyone that goes down there raves about it.
01:13Like, you know, I'm biased. It's home for me. It'll always be home.
01:18Like, even though we're in Florida, mainly, like, New Zealand's always going to feel like New Zealand's where we're going
01:24to end up regardless.
01:27Like, yeah, to hear someone like Scotty say that, like, it's pretty awesome for New Zealand.
01:32Like, you know, Rory coming down was massive.
01:37But, yeah, like, Scotty's saying in a press conference he wants to go down and play New Zealand and Australia.
01:43Like, Australia's amazing, too. Like, man, they've got some great golf courses.
01:46Like, that sand belt might be the best collection of golf courses in a small area anywhere in the world.
01:50Like, that's incredible. But, yeah, we're doing pretty well as a pretty small country.
01:55And to have those guys be publicly vocal about it, like, it's only going to do good things for our
02:04country.
02:04And, you know, it'll be great to see, you know, maybe like a President's Cup go down there or something
02:10going forward.
02:11Like, we may not have the scope, the population base to host a PGA Tour event year in, year out.
02:20But to do it once and do it big, like a President's Cup?
02:24A President's Cup?
02:25Damn, we can do that.
