Takes

I'm going to 'shock the world' and win the Masters this week.

I say we shock the world to win the thing. I've been thinking a lot about it. I feel like not winning's less fun than winning. So I'm kind of just gonna go for it.

Arnold Palmer stood up and then he looked outside. He saw a really hot chick getting out of the car and she had an umbrella and he's like, 'fellas, I've got it: umbrellas. We gotta do umbrellas.'

Brandel Chamblee is using bots to generate fake YouTube views for Bryson DeChambeau's content

The Tour Championship is basically all the golf majors combined

[The Tour Championship] is basically the fifth major. The only one I would say it's all the majors combined. It's an aggregate of all the majors. So [Tommy Fleetwood] is the biggest golf winner of the year.

I'm concerned for America. You were looking at the potential lineup and just being like, oh, we're gonna get killed.

Betting on Tommy Fleetwood to win the FedEx Cup is a guaranteed loss

I believe in Rob [with two Bs] more than Tommy. I do not believe in Tommy... This is going to be a good bet because he's going to get down to like plus 300 at some point, plus 200. We'll be like, great bet. And then he's going to lose.

Scottie Scheffler struggles at the Open because he wants a fair golf course

Scotty does not like it when it's quote unquote unfair. I mean that is the one weird thing about Scotty, like he wants a great shot rewarded and that's just not what links golf's about. This is the one he has not played great at. For Scotty it's trying to lean a little bit more into that world versus 'why is it in that pot bunker?'

Terrell Hatton will win the Open Championship at Port Rush

The winning score at the US Open will be over par because the course is impossible

Scottie Scheffler is just a Masters merchant and hasn't proven he can dominate other majors

He's also gonna be the new narrative guy. He might just be a masters merchant. He's got, he's got a win in major that's not the masters... People compare to Tiger. These are his, you know, finishes and majors in his last 10 majors. It's not the greatest.

Russell Henley is my pick to win the 2025 Masters

Phil Mickelson has a legit chance to win the Masters this week

I think Phil's got a chance. Oh I think Phil has a legit chance this week. He's been playing some solid golf and kind of going back to like what plays well here is a great iron player and somebody that's excellent around the Greens. I think Phil, he finds himself in contention it feels like every two years. So I think Phil, in terms of extreme long shots, I'm a big fan of his number this week.

Brooks Koepka is my pick to win the Masters this year

I gotta pick for you guys... I'm thinking Brooks [Koepka]. I like that he's won there before. I bet Brooks every single year. I'm a loyal guy.

I think so. I mean, last week was a very big turning moment for me [taking the dub]... Right now, I mean, sky's the limit. I feel good and I like the course.

I am officially betting on Min Woo Lee at the Masters.

I think I'm gonna bet, bet on you at the masters. I think, I think I'm now in the Wu-Tang clan. I feel like I gotta back you because you hit the ball a mile, which I love. You got the mullet, you got the mustache, you're Australian... just know that.

Tiger Woods' career as a competitive golfer is over following his Achilles rupture

LIV Golf should allow all steroids and make the tour totally rule-free

Now that [McIlroy] is back, he's having the makeup sex, and the makeup sex is propelling him to get in the hole.

Scotty Scheffler is essentially unbeatable right now regardless of the course

There is no course that doesn't favor Scotty Scheffler. That dude... I mean, you name the type of golf course as the ball striker that he is, he has the ability to just, he figures it out... I don't know how you pick against Scotty.

Tiger Woods has a chance to finish Top 20 at Pinehurst because it is an easy walk

This might be the US open course that he [Tiger Woods] does... Because this is probably of all the US open venues, this might be the easiest of the walks. Okay. And that's what it takes for Tiger. Now that's part of the issue. It ain't the course, it's the walks. And the, and the stances.

Scotty Scheffler was set up to be arrested by the PGA to boost TV ratings

I have reasons to believe that Scotty was set up to be arrested. If you look at the PGA numbers the day before it was extremely down... They paid a cop to tell Scotty the wrong information. The police department knew what time he'd be coming in and what car he would be in. I believe it was set up for large number of views the next couple days.

Xander Schauffele's record-breaking start at the PGA Championship will not end well

Schauffele was lights out today. He's in the lead. He shot nine under I think. So now everyone is saying like, this feels like it's the year... I'm gonna go on the record and say I've seen this movie before and it's not gonna end well.

The British Open is the only major Tiger Woods can realistically contend in at this point in his career

I look at Tiger right now and I think the only major he can really contend in and potentially win is the British Open. Because firm/fast/warm things like that play into his hands. It's just gonna be tough for Tiger to play at a wet and soft golf course that plays this long when he is 40 and 50 yards behind a Scotty Scheffler or a Brooks [Koepka] or a Rory [McIlroy].

Will Zalatoris is a 'playoff' type player who finds another gear in major championships regardless of his recent form

I like [Will] Zalatoris as well this week... the harder the golf course the better it is for his game because he hits it so well... It's almost like guys that step up in the playoffs, right? Maybe they're not great during the regular season, but they find another gear or they're game translates in the playoffs. He's one of those playoff type of players.

Max Homa is in my top three favorites and can absolutely win the PGA Championship

I think Max [Homa] can absolutely win here. I think it's a good golf course for him. And I feel like he's been playing better and better golf than we saw early in the season. So absolutely. I think, I think Max not only can win, but I think he's in probably my top three favorites right now.

Professional golfers should never miss a putt from 10 feet or closer

Scottie Scheffler will win the 2024 U.S. Open with his new baby

All that means is he's gonna have the kid and then he's definitely gonna win the US open 100% with a new baby. That's gonna be the picture. That's him holding his new baby on the tee or on the green of the 18th hole. The US Open wherever. Oh, it's Pinehurst, right? Yep. It is Pinehurst.

Tiger Woods will not make the cut at the 2024 Masters

Tiger's not making the cut this year. I mean, think about the Masters is though... he might. I think Tiger probably 50-50, right?

My long shot pick is Jason Day... He's Plus I think he's 6,060 to one... I like Jason Day.

Brooks Koepka at 18-to-1 is the best value to win the Open Championship

I like Brooks [Koepka] a lot this week. Whenever we go into these majors, he's right there with the top three or four guys... except he's whatever, 18 to one. And you've got Rory... at plus six 50. I'm taking Brooks Koepka, I watched his presser, he seemed incredibly confident.

Rory McIlroy will miss the cut at the Open Championship because it's 'too much of a storybook ending'

I have a hot take. I think [Rory McIlroy] is gonna miss the cut. Yeah, I think everything, because the last time they played here was the last time he won a major. He's been playing good golf. He won this weekend. Everyone—it's almost too much of a storybook ending and I think he's just gonna come out and blow up.

Tiger Woods' [son] Charlie is gonna start his own golf league. A professional golf league. Outside. That's why he has him a commenting.

If we win the Ryder Cup, I can't wait for [Fowler] to remake that picture where everybody's making out with their wives or girlfriends afterwards... and Ricky's just in the middle just smiling like 'I don't have a face to kiss right now.' I need him with Allison Stokke... full on just tongue wrestling.
