What were your takeaways from just the eye test this past week on watching this kid is, is there a chance that we're overdoing it? And this is Matthew Wolf, or you see some, see something that's distinguished and different and special.
18:29
I think it's different because we've been seeing him now for the past 18 months when he would show up to the ISCO or the Wyndham or the John Deere or he'd play in this fall season and we'd be betting on this guy at 80 to 1.
18:40
Like, this is the next guy.
18:41
And then all of a sudden he'd go to these PGA Tour events as an AM and be 25 to 1, which were fair odds that people wanted to bet anyway.
18:48
So everyone saw this coming.
18:49
And to your point about the short game and even just to have a discussion about Matthew Wolfe in a second, that...
18:56
It's really what separates him from most of these young guys.

What's your assessment of that?
2:22
We want both picks, but you've got to tell me which one you want it to be officially documented for record, for which I'll let you know your record when we come back around next month or next year.
2:35
I am going to take Alex Fitzpatrick top 30 finish plus 190 as my prop.
2:41
So almost a two to one.
2:42
So if I get this one right, I'll be up almost two units here from doing the show over the course of the three majors.
2:47
But that one feels very good to me.
2:49
I saw he was wearing VR goggles.
2:52
on the putting green.
7:17
who you've been a truther on since he got the card.
4:06
How'd you get there?
4:07
Hey, I just looked at the course, and what Rory said today, you know, leaves me a bit like, "Ugh," and that's not the greatest thing I wanted to hear.
4:14
But the way that this course has been set up, that it does feel like there is a premium from playing out of the fairway, and there's a premium on iron control, and pretty good putting around the green play.
4:23
Like, that, you're gonna have to do that stuff, but that stuff is far less predictable than anything else.
4:28
And I started to think, like, "Hey," and we talked about this, "Seb Straka, Si Woo Kim, Russell Henley, like, these are all a type of player that has an opportunity to win a PGA Championship this week." However, Scottie Scheffler is by far the best version of that player.
4:44
Now, if this turns into a bomb and gouge fest, then Rory, then Rahm, then Bryson.
4:49
All these guys, and I mean, Cam Young is probably the closest to Scottie in this regard, it's just he doesn't happen to hit his irons as consistently or as good as most of these top-end players.
7:59
I'm not comparing a Canadian Open to a, a major championship, but I just feel like, where doesn't he go where he's just gonna do that?
2:44
Right off the top, I want to know what are the things you're looking for when it comes to not just a fantasy tout, but a personality that you're willing to platform?
2:53
It's one of two things.
2:54
Everyone gets broken up into different segments.
2:57
Like if you are the most knowledgeable person, you don't need as much magnetism coming through the camera.
3:03
You don't need to be hilarious if you are on point with everything you say.
3:07
But here's the fun fact about fantasy towns.
3:09
That's like no one.

When
17:14
Now, when you're doing that, is it something that you're like, well, why are you giving it away for free? I guess it would be the question.
17:21
I've never charged for a pic, never charged for an article in my life.
17:25
I guess for a time I did write an exclusive article when I founded FTN that was just a part of the package.
17:31
That was part of the deal of me going over there.
17:33
But that was something extra throughout the course of the week.
17:36
Because I've always had the one thing that I want to do is just make my audience bigger.
17:39
I don't really care about selling subs.
