Let's get to the show.

All right. I am joined by Kenny Kim of the Fantasy Golf Degenerates podcast on the Mayo Media Network and a bunch of other things. Kenny, how's it going, man? Good, man. Also, GubsCorner.com. Can't forget the sponsors. Can't forget them all. How's it going, man? I know you're joining me on this Tuesday morning on your lunch break from work, so I greatly appreciate your time, my friend.

I've been getting used to doing these in my car. I have done a couple of other shows during my lunch break. So I'm definitely getting used to it.

Well, I appreciate once again, you taking the time to chat a little Fortunet with me. I'll quickly ask you, man, how is your very long and grueling offseason? And how do you feel about the PGA Tour starting back up again? Too soon? Would you like a bigger offseason? Or were you kind of itching to get back into golf by the end of last week? I mean, I'm heading into year seven of this.

year six or year seven, something like that. So a longer break would definitely be nice. You definitely don't have them. You get that little month, three weeks in December, but even that's not enough. Like a couple-month break would be nice, but that's not part of the game. We go ahead and we do it every week we can. So we're here and we keep on running and we keep on doing it.

I agree. I think a longer break would be nicer for us, but at the same time, I'm also very excited to get back into this tournament, which is, I am referring to the Fortunate Championship. It will be held at Silverado Country Club in Napa, California. It's a par 72 measuring 7,166 yards. The greens have a blend of POA and BAT, narrow fairways, but the rough isn't very penal.

I already have done a full breakdown of my thoughts on this course already, Kenny. So I will kick it to you, man. What are you kind of looking for this week in terms of course fit? I mean, good wedge play. Definitely comfortableness on Palo West Coast putting. Longer off the tee doesn't hurt.

We've seen guys who are pretty long fare pretty well. I mean, it's not necessary, but it definitely helps out because the thing about it is these fairways are narrow and they're tree-lined, but the trees aren't really bunched in like your typical East Coast course. More sporadic, a little bit more room. If you do hit it in there, try and guide it through something low and punchy.

to get to these greens. You know, you're not going to have too far to reach these greens. If you hit a drive, you're even going to hit it in a tree. So 110, 125-yard punch shot, even if you miss. And if you're hitting the fairways or just missing the rough, there's about a 10-foot first cut

from the edge of the fairway. So if you just miss, I mean, that rough is basically nothing. I mean, it does depend on how firm the greens are. Johnny Miller does want this to be a major course at some point in time. I'm sure he wasn't too excited about the minus 21 score last year. He does have some say and some pull in how this course is set up prior to the event. So I would expect him to

Try and keep it firm. Try and make it a little bit more difficult. We'll see if that happens. Usually, it'll just depend on the wind in that area. If that Napa wind gets going a bit, it could lead to some higher scores. But if not, we'll see a bunch of birds. Okay. I agree with you completely, by the way. I think I was a little surprised when I went through the course and kind of see – I know it got up past 20 last year, but prior, I was kind of surprised to see how –

not crazy and out of hands. The scores were, and I think a lot of that has to do, as you mentioned, is it can get windy. It can get a little bit firmer and faster. And the greens do have some undulation, as you mentioned with Johnny Miller, he did try and, uh,

create like an Augusta like feel to this course. I don't know if he totally succeeded at that, but I know that's what he was going for a little bit on the greens. Let's get into the odds. My friend, we're going to, I'm going to give you the guys below 25 to one on DraftKings sports book.

John Rahm is currently 300 plus 350 on DraftKings Sportsbook. Webb Simpson is 14 to 1. Kevin Na is 16 to 1. Hideki is 22 to 1. Zalatoris is 22 to 1. And those are all the guys below 25. I guess we should first talk about John Rahm. And I assume that you are not betting that number, but will you be using Rahm in DraftKings at all? Or is he a fade for you completely? Yeah.

Yeah, I'm not going to bet him, but, I mean, he'll be my hand zone. I don't see any – I mean, the thing you've got to realize about him, you know, if he's playing a tournament, he's playing for a reason. He wants to win. He only has one win, technically one win, in the last, you know, 13 months on the PGA Tour. I know he is the best player in the world, but that's not –

a lot of wins. He probably wants to add on to that, especially being maybe a little bit out of motivation not getting the Player of the Year award, can't leave winning that. But I think if John's coming out here to play, he's coming out here to play, he's the best by far in this event. So in DraftKings, I will be using him. I'm not betting him. I think a lot of what people will do when it comes to DraftKings, and I don't think any of these numbers are bettable in this beginning. I'm personally going

I think I got like 135 to one, 160 to one. And then I'm going like seven bombs, 90 to one or greater. Yeah, me too. That's how I'm betting the event this week. When it comes to DraftKings though, I think in cash especially, I think it's going to be popular for people to go ahead and grab two people in this upper range. I'm going Webb and Knott.

I think whether it was 10, 8, 9, 10K. I'm monitoring them in my cash lineup. They will be 1 and 2. I want to start off with two guys in the 10K. The win equity is definitely higher for these five guys than anyone else. Numbers wise, I just can't bet it.

Okay, I'm glad we're on the same page there with Webb and Na. I'm playing both of those guys in DraftKings. I think, as you mentioned, the numbers are a little... I mean, you can kind of shop around a little bit, and I think Na...

in kind of the 22 range is maybe a little bit more palatable for me. But yeah, I think the one thing I think about, Kenny, and I'm interested to get your take on this, and I made this point with Pat last night, but I actually think that sometimes elite players...

Their advantage gets mitigated just a little bit on a course where everyone has their wedge in their hands and it can turn a little bit into a putting contest. And that's why I think the strategy of taking a bunch of bombs, I just think the playing field is a little bit more leveled on easier courses. Like I said, the difference between

Kevin Na's wedges and Cameron Percy's wedges are not as great as you would think. But the difference between John Rahm's three iron and, I don't know, Roger Sloan's three iron is absolutely massive. And these better courses and more difficult courses tend to weed out the best players, whereas easier courses tend to level the playing field just a little bit, which leads me to be a little bit more

take on a couple more risks farther down the board.

I agree, but, I mean, the thing you've got to realize is there are going to be maybe at least six approaches over 200 yards. Par fives, yeah. You know, you've got the four par fives, you've got the two par threes that are over 200. I mean, that's a third of your strokes, a third of your approach shots every day, and Rahm is number one for 200-plus in this field by a wide margin. I get your point about the wedges. It does make sense. But, I mean, I think he could be so well and dominate these par fives. I mean, and the thing is, looking back at past stat models,

For this event, par four scoring is super important, even though it is only 10 of them, I think, in the course. It is par 72. He's number one in this field by a wide margin in par four, number one by a wide margin in par fives.

I just think he can bomb it out there. I mean, he's not short. We know that. He can hit it out there on the longer par, on the par fives and the long par threes. He's going to have an advantage there. I think he can easily just run away with this tournament.

I wouldn't bet plus 350, but on DraftKings, I think it's worth it. Yeah, I think that if Rob plays his best, there is no undeniable belief that he should win this tournament. I think he can play his B game. I would still win.

Yeah, that's probably fair too. I think that's probably fair too. Do you have any concern about the motivation of like if he starts out with a one or two under par, he'll kind of spend a little bit more time with the wife in the vineyards?

I mean, it's possible, but I mean, you can't really, you can't really judge that before the round starts. I wouldn't expect him to start out poorly, but if he does, yeah, there's definitely a chance. But I mean, that's not the way I'm thinking about it when I'm on string. Okay. I feel you. All right. So let's get into the 25 to kind of the 50 range here. Okay.

You kind of alluded to earlier that you were starting kind of in the 30s range. Who in this range do you like? We got guys like Tringale and Hoffman and Varner and Munoz and Champ and Leishman at 45 and Mito at 50 and Siwu at 50 and Griot at 50. I got Hoffman at 35. That's my lowest range.

Number bet. 35 to 1. The guy's, you know, he's been playing good golf at the end of the year. I mean, really, really strong player towards the end of the year. His game has sort of been on an upswing since the middle of the season last year. His iron game is extremely strong. And, of course, that's what's going to be one of the more important things here for the week. I mean, so I'm a big fan of Hoffman. Even his wedge game has improved tremendously. Yeah.

And, you know, he's always been good with the long run. So he should be able to succeed on those par fives and along par threes. So I like Hoffman. I think it seems like a win is sort of due for him after the way he played the back half of last year. And I don't mind 35 to one for him. The other guys in this range, I'm not too...

In Amherst with, I think, Munoz. I think he can make a good pivot from a popular Harold Varner III when it comes to DraftKings. A guy who just makes a ton of birdies all the time. What's Varner's number? What is it, 40-1? Yeah, Varner's 40-1. I think he's more worth a bet than a DraftKings play. Because, again, he's been playing well also. But, I mean, like 20% chalk Varner usually doesn't end up going very well.

Do you think he's going to be that high on? Because again, I was talking, I was talking about, yeah, I was talking about it with Pat yesterday and we both kind of agree. And I like Varner this week. I, he was actually the guy I did bet at 40 to one, but I do think at 9,100, he is overpriced. And I, I,

Varner tends to garner more ownership often than he should because he's just a guy that people like playing. But I thought that he was priced high enough that maybe it would be a little bit down. I'm looking currently on Fantasy National right now. And again, it's still relatively early in the week. We're recording this on a Tuesday morning. And it's not a torn... Ownership projections are going to be a little bit harder to navigate this week because I

I don't think they're with us competing up against the NFL. I don't know how many people are going to be grinding with lineups before. I just don't know if this is going to be a bigger week with golf. There's only 720 generated lineups so far in the Fantasy National database. But what's really odd about it is the Varner's like 12%. They have Munoz at 30%.

30% and ROMs at 40%, which it seems like it could just be completely skewed by a couple guys that are high on those guys that are building like 150 lineups each.

Yeah, I mean, yeah, I usually wait till end of the Wednesday night. I mean, Duff does a really good ownership projections on our sites. I usually wait for that. I mean, if he's not going to be that highly owned, then he's definitely worth playing, I would have to say. I mean, the guys are playing good golf, a couple top 15s here to end the season. But if he's chalk, I'd avoid him.

I'd love to get your take on Mito because he seems to be, from a betting perspective, he seems to be very popular in the betting market. It seems like that is not necessarily going to translate to DraftKings in terms of ownership, but it seems like a lot of people are very interested in betting Mito this week because of the upside. What are your thoughts on Mito? I mean...

I don't know. He just hasn't really done too much on tour. I don't know. I mean, I know he won the three to get the automatic advancement to the PGA Tour. But, I mean, he had a couple of good events. And then after that, it was just sort of downhill. It might be worth it. Again, it's going to be depending on ownership there. But, I mean, if you look at his numbers from the Corn Fairy Tour, I mean –

It's not – or actually on the PGA Tour, in his few events that he has, it's not like astronomically great. I mean, he's like – in 22 recorded rounds, he's like 50th in stroke scale approach in this field in the last – but that's only 22 rounds out of 50. So I get why he's popular, but you got to remember the last person to do the three-win qualifier was Wesley Bryan.

I don't even know if he has his card again anymore. I know he won a couple years ago. Maybe he still has it from then. But I go more of a wait and see. Now, if he starts playing pretty well, I mean, you know he can win. He has those three wins on the corn for this past year. But I don't know. If he's popular, I'm probably avoiding as well.

Okay. Well, I'm kind of jumping. I happen to be in the same belief as you, by the way, with Mito, are you, I'm kind of jumping around here, but are you playing a lot of corn fairy guys this week? Are you kind of, as you alluded to taking a little bit more of a wait and see approach, because for me, I rely heavily on the data. And when I see these guys come in and I just don't have a lot of data or numbers on them, uh,

I glitch out a little bit and tend to be more comfortable waiting on them. And if they win or play awesome in one of their first PGA tour events, I'm usually pretty comfortable, pretty comfortable being later on them.

I'm playing a bunch of these guys. I mean, Taylor Pendence is going to be on my cash lineup. He's one guy that I'm keeping an eye on this season. Length off the tee. Really good on par for scoring. Makes a ton of birdies. I'm actually confident enough to use him in cash this week. Also, what's his name? Chad Rainey. I mean, the way he has been playing on the Corn Fairy Tour with, like,

I don't know, like 15 out of 18 events in a row, top 20. Hasn't missed a cut since early April. I mean, I'm on him too. Uline has a little bit more experience on the PGA Tour, but I mean, I'm going to roster Peter Uline. Davis Riley at $6,400 seems cheap for one of the better amateur players out there, you know, in the past and doing his thing when he graduated the Corn Fairy Tour and getting on, getting his card.

So, yeah, I'm definitely playing a fair amount of guys from the Corn Fairy. And on our podcast last night, we go over a bunch of them if you want some info on these Corn Fairy guys.

Okay. I am glad that you brought up Ramey. You might have, Ramey was somebody that I found very interesting and I was kind of looking at a little bit deeper because he's $7,000 on DraftKings, but he's 70 to one in the betting market, which I found very strange considering all of the guys that he's surrounded by in DraftKings pricing are like,

or in the betting market are like 150 to one. All those 7,000 guys are 150 to one. And then Ramey's kind of just sitting there at 70, which I found a little bit odd. So yeah, I'm glad to hear you talk about him a little bit more and how great he's been on the, on the corn fairy tour, because he wasn't, he was somebody that stuck out to me just in terms of like,

oh, this seems kind of strange that there's this giant discrepancy between his DraftKings pricing and his odds in the betting market. Digging down a little bit lower and kind of not necessarily before we wrap up with getting into some of the bombs over 100, but in this kind of 50 to 100 range, is there anybody that has your attention? I mean, I'm going to play...

Uh, Penderth is 90 to one. I'm betting him. I like Pat Perez. What Perez's number? So Pat Perez, he's 60 to one on DraftKings. I also bet. I also bet Pat Perez. I got him at 90. Yeah. I like Pat Perez a lot, especially on DraftKings as a pivot, uh, from Mito, uh, from Gooch, who could be both popular plays this week. But, uh, I mean, if you like him too, I know a lot of people, I know Tyler like Perez, maybe he's going to be a little bit more, uh,

own than we think but i like i like pat perez a lot this week i mean you saw sick witness event last year older guy press trending upwards iron game's been stronger here recently um so i like pat i mean this seems like a perfect place for him to drink some wine at night afterwards with this you know with his playboy model blonde wife and and get to the course and do his thing i mean i think this is a great great setup for pat perez

I'm totally in on Pat too. I think that first of all, he's done, he's been incredible in the fall series. He tends to play great on these resort courses, whether it's at like the Mayakoba or in Vegas or here, he's played well here before. He just tends to,

thrive in these birdie fest. He's really good on par five. So, and he's hitting the ball great right now as well. He just gained like over five strokes on approach in a much better field at the Northern trust. So Pat Perez is absolutely a bet for me before we get into some of the longer guys, Kenny, let's take a quick break to talk about thrive and

I think, yeah, I think, I'm sorry, Andy. I think I did forget one guy. Go ahead, buddy. I did bet McNeely at 60 to one also this week. Okay. I love McNeely. He played college golf at Stanford. He's a California guy. He's got a beautiful family home on Pebble Beach. I like the McNeely play as well. Is there a, let's see, uh,

Kind of now we can open it up, Kenny, to, oh, actually one more guy that I want to talk about that I want to get your opinion on real quick. What do you think about Gim this week? I bet Gim at 90.

Yeah, I bet Kim at 90 also. His iron game hasn't been great towards the end of the year, but they're a little bit more difficult courses. Hopefully this course will play out a little bit better for him. I mean, he's one of the worst putters on tour, but he's actually gained strokes on Poa throughout his career. So if his iron game, you get back to what it was before,

midseason where he was missing every cut but gaining three to four strokes with his irons for the first rounds of every event and losing like seven on the greens. If he can get back to that iron play, I think he can make some noise.

What's interesting about Gim, too, is as you have alluded to, he's kind of made his hay on the PGA Tour as an iron player. And while they haven't been as good lately, two things. A, they're getting better. So he's lost on approach in three straight starts, but...

Each of the starts, they've gotten a little bit closer back to even. So he's trending in the right direction. And while the approach has really fallen off for him a little bit over the past couple of weeks, the off the tee has been awesome, which I think we both are in the same camp that you can really dominate this course off the tee and have a leg up if you are able to drive the ball well. And Doug Gimm is brilliant.

Clearly really found something with the driver. He had his best off the tee measured week, actually, of his entire career. Most recently at the Northern Trust where he gained five strokes off the tee and that came in a much better field than this one did. So I really love the upside with Gim. I'm using him in DraftKings as well and betting him out.

at 90 to one. Once we get into the 100 range, Kenny, I know you alluded to a bunch of bombs that you have. Who are some of the guys that you're targeting kind of down closer to the bottom of the board, not necessarily even just for betting, but any guys that you think are kind of lower on the DraftKings pricing that you think are going to have a good week and you will be using?

Yeah, Bramlett seems like one. I mean, he just won that Corn Fairy Tour final, so he has a win under his belt. Has to be riding with a little bit of confidence in there. We know that his iron game is always strong. He's been sort of like the model darling when it comes to when you make your model, he's always higher up. And now he has that win under his belt, 130 to 1. I like that number. And I like him at $7,300. He's made a bunch of cuts in a row, at least three or four on the Corn Fairy Tour.

So I am a fan of Bramlett down here. I think Hank the Tank was 110-1, 7,100 on DraftKings. I mean, he had that stretch where he was playing unbelievable golf, and that hasn't been too far removed from when that actually happened. I like him at that price. I like Patrick Rogers, another California kid. You know, I think I got him at 110-1 as well, 7,000. He's one of my cash game cornerstones.

This week, you know, he's made a bunch of cuts in a row, four in a row here. He finished sixth here the first year he was played. So he has some good experience. Always a better California putter. The one thing about him that I like is his approach game and his tee to green game has been positive, I think, for maybe six of the last seven events. That's normally not like him. He relies on a putter a lot, but his tee to green game has been improving a lot better. So I like Patrick Rodgers.

I love Patrick Rogers. Pat was like viscerally angry last night when I, when I tried to sell him on Patrick Rogers, but I'm with you completely. There's something about the West coast and POA with Patrick Rogers. He's another one of those guys like Matt McNeely, where he went to Stanford. So it appears that he's familiar on,

Poe and kind of in this area, he just always seems to play well. And he, unlike some of the other, he's great off the tee. And for the most part, a pretty good ball striker, but unlike some of these other guys, like, uh, that I tend to play always as well, like, uh, a Luke Liss or a Kyle Stanley, uh,

Rodgers has that kind of spike putting week in his bag. He actually gained over seven strokes putting twice in his last seven starts. And one of them came at the U S open on the West coast on tour at Torrey pines, where he gained over seven strokes putting the last time he was on POA. So I absolutely love,

Patrick Rogers. The other guy that I would throw out, Kenny, that I'm kind of all in on this week is Dylan Fratelli. I'm going to use him. He's 7,500 on DraftKings. He's a hundred and I got him at 130 to one, which I believe is still available right now on DraftKings Sportsbook. But the thing that I like about Fratelli is, and I know that he's not going to pop

in anyone's model really because he just hasn't been consistent enough. But also keep in mind that he did finish fifth at the Masters and he did finish fifth at the British Open in the last year. And we don't have numbers from either of those in our databases because they don't have strokes gain data. But the thing I like about Fratelli is

He has two very specific skill sets that I do believe will play very well here. He's long off the tee and he's a great wedge player. I actually was looking at over the last 36 rounds, kind of going through just at a completely elementary level, just dumbing down like, okay, who's long off the tee and awesome with their wedges?

and there are two guys, and one of them is one of your big guys that you're high on. There's only two guys in the entire field that are top 40 in all of the proximity distances between 75 and 150 yards and driving distance, and it's Charlie Hoffman and Dylan Fratelli. Yeah. Didn't Fratelli have a good finish here last year? Oh, he's played great here. I think he's gone like 7th and 25th in two starts here. I can get on board with that.

Yeah, so I think Fratelli was kind of, he was the other guy that I was really looking at in terms of an outright in this range. Anyone else that we haven't touched on a little bit in terms of kind of some more bombs? There are some guys like 200 plus that I had some interest in. I bet Cam Percy at 220 to one. Yeah, I bet Lipski at 200 to one.

So I did bet Lipski. The good thing about Lipski, really strong par five player. I actually bet him top 20 also, plus 650. So I sort of like him this week, who plays well with his par fives. You know, Tita Green, he's definitely above average when it comes to the field. Good enough birdie maker. I am a fan of Lipski this week.

Okay. I love it, man. Anyone else that we haven't touched on before we do a bit of a recap, my friends? No, I think that's pretty much good. I mean, check the corn for it, guys. And I think some of them will be able to make some noise this week. Think about these young guys nowadays that are coming into it. They have no fear. They come in and a lot of them start winning right away. We've seen it over and over again.

uh, like the Hovlands, uh, the, the, the Neiman's. Uh, now I don't know which of these corn fairy guys are going to be able to get to that range or if any of them will be, but I bet you at least a couple will. Uh, so it means just pay attention to these corn fairy guys. I like Taylor Pendence a lot. I think he could be someone who's, who could be strong on tour. I think Rainey is the same way. I think, uh, Svensson, uh,

uh, Adam Sensen, I'm a fan of these Canadian younger young guys. Also maybe Todd Tambos rubbing off on me a little bit, but, uh, yeah, just keep an eye on these corn fairy toy guys. Is it Taylor Moore or Taylor Pendrith who is, has been like awesome off the tee. One of them, Pat was all over. I can't remember. I can't remember who was more pendrous. I think they're all Canadian, right? Yeah. Well, Pendrith is the one that's a bomber. He can hit it. Okay.

You can pound it. I'm not 100% sure which one Pat was talking about, but I like Henry Klopp. Okay. All right. Yeah. I think I was kind of going back and forth with what people are going to do with these Korn Ferry Tour guys. And I think that for the most part, they will be a lot lower owned because they are unknown. And if you kind of do the legwork, you can really find a leg up on some of these guys. And so I think I probably need to get

my stats biased and kind of, I think it's worth taking a chance on some of these guys, especially in DraftKings at lower ownership. You kind of, you mentioned the key point here, which is like, and I'll never forget this quote from Kevin Kisner where they asked him in the press conference and he's like, do you mentor some of the younger guys?

on tour and he's like mentor what the fuck are you talking about like these guys are ready to win now they're completely fearless it's not like it used to be whatsoever where there's this giant learning curve when you get onto the pga tour of course it is a big adjustment and you do see guys obviously like matthew wolf will we'll talk about how much of a struggle it is but for the most part like these guys are fearless they are ready to go right out of the gates and they kind of

attack these courses so well early in their career without kind of worrying about all the things that kind of come with being a long veteran on the PGA Tour. So I like that, Kenny. Let's do a quick recap. Just real quick, real quick though. I mean, on Fantasy National, they do have rudimentary stats from the Corn Fairy Tour. So you can get an idea of how these guys have played against each other. So, I mean, you know, another reason to check out Fantasy National. Yeah.

FGD is the promo code? Yes, if I remember correctly. Tyler's always the one that says it. But yes, yes. Yes, go check out Fantasy National. I love Fantasy National. I'm all over it. I talk about it probably...

They're my statistical database that I use primarily. And obviously I talk about it every day on the podcast. Okay, Kenny, let's do a recap. I'm going to tell you the guys that I bet on, and then we'll go through yours and then we'll get out of here, buddy. So I'm in on Varner at 40. I'm in on Chez Reavy, who we didn't talk about, but I bet Chez Reavy at 70 to one. I have

Gim at 90, Perez at 95, Fratelli at 140, Patrick Rogers at 160, and Cam Percy at 220. Yeah, I'm going Hoffman at 35, Mavik at 60, Patrick Rogers at 110, Doug Gim at 90, Taylor Penderth at 90,

Hank the Tank at plus 110 and Bramlett plus 130 and then, you know, Superflyer and Lipski at plus 200 plus the top 20 and plus 650.

Kenny Kim, everyone. Fantasy Golf Degenerates, Gup Quarter. Kenny, thank you so much for joining me on your lunch break in your car. I really do appreciate it, man. I'm excited to check out your show with Tyler that I know you guys dropped it last night, right? Yep, it's out already. We go over all of this and I actually go over my rules to follow at a strip club as well. So it's sort of funny. Yeah.

Okay. Beautiful. I, what was, I feel like I saw a tweet where you, you made a joke about watching the Solheim cup. It wasn't a joke. It wasn't a joke. I was at the strip club. I went on vacation. Uh, it was a company retreat during, during labor day weekend. And, you know, we like strip clubs in our company. Uh, so we were, we were headed out and we had a late flight. And so we, um,

We stopped by a strip club before we went to the airport and it was a middle of a song company. I love that type of competition, a team match play.

team competition where there's nothing on the line except pride. I don't know. Something about that just really gets me fucking going. And so I was watching and the women were playing and it was competitive. And then so I was on the stage. I was sitting on the stage. Girls were dancing, doing their thing, spinning around on the poles. And I had my phone leaned up against my water bottle. And then I was actually watching the Solemn Cup. So the manager comes behind me and puts his hand on his shoulder

and looks down at my camera, he thought I was recording the girls dancing on stage. I was not. I was watching the Solheim Cup on my phone while watching the girls during commercial breaks. It's basically what I was doing. And he looked at me and said, this is definitely a first. I've never seen this before. I was like, I support all women, all women.

So he didn't kick me out. He let me keep watching it. You know, I threw some dollar bills on the stage and kept watching the song. It was fun.

Were you on the U.S. side, unfortunately? Did you bet it? I mean, I always want the U.S. to win. I didn't bet it. I mean, I did bet. I've already bet the Ryder Cup and I've already bet the Euros. Okay. I probably should. I'll probably bet them again. I'm going to root for the United States. You know, I'm an American. I'm a Korean American. I'm going to root for them. Now, the President's Cup, there's a lot of Koreans on there. I might go international. But I'm going to root for the Americans. It's just...

They just disappointed so much. I don't know. I need, I need to hedge life on that one. And if they lose, at least I can win some money.

Okay. All right. Yeah, that makes sense. I think I'm going to do all my Ryder Cup stuff next week, and I haven't really made a decision yet whether I'm going to go. I'm going to the Ryder Cup. If you look at the – you're going? Yeah, I'll be there. Oh, man, that's awesome. That's so sweet, man. Yeah. That's definitely bucket list stuff for me. I definitely want to go. I think I'm going to try and make the President's Cup in Montreal.

Again, another strip club late in the city. So, yeah, I think that would be a fun trip. So in a couple of years, I'll probably hit on them over there.

Yeah, I've heard Montreal. What is that? 2020? Is that 2020? 2024? Okay, yeah, it's back to now they have the President's Cup in. It all got mixed up because the Ryder Cup got delayed. But all right. Anyway, buddy, one more time quickly. We already mentioned FGD, but plug everything where everyone can find you this week. Yeah, you can find me on Twitter at KendoVT. You know, I answer questions there all the time. My DMs are always open.

Drinking and driving is a decision that could change your whole world. Things will never be the same if you ever get a DUI because legal fees and time in court are just the beginning. Getting into a crash is another way that your world can be turned upside down. Your vehicle may not be the only thing that gets damaged in that crash. You can face a life altering injury or

or even death. But you're not the only one that can face those consequences. Your decision to drink and drive can permanently impact not just your world, but someone else's world as well. Whether you injure them or leave their loved ones grieving. The next time you're out drinking, call a ride share, a taxi, a sober friend,

or a designated sober driver. The only decision that will change your world for the better is the decision to call for a sober ride. Drive sober or get pulled over. Paid for by NHTSA.
