00:00Alright, the placements. I'll highlight for you, we talked about this during the break.

00:08Eric Cole's one of those guys who's just beyond that 50 number that is going to look to get into the top 20.

00:14Who else do you see here with your placements?

00:16Well, when you start to talk about that in the top 20, so Eric Cole for a top 20, but how about Max Grazerman?

00:21A little known fact out here is that most guys, they make about 75% of their money in a six-week span.

00:28We know that Max is hot right now. He was great at the 3M runner-up.

00:31Then, of course, he was great last week until the cart path there at the Wyndham.

00:34I'm riding him again. This is a good golf course for him. He's a good ball striker, and he can score on Bermuda.

00:39I love that kid for a top 20. To finish out the top 20, we're going to go with Sepp Straka.

00:43He lost here in a playoff a couple years ago, but he loves zoysia grass.

00:46Great ball striker. He was decent at the Open Championship.

00:49This time of year, in the heat in the southeast, being a Georgia Bulldog, it fits him as well.

00:53Top 10, Tony Feenau. There might be only one guy other than Scottie. Forget Scottie at the top.

00:58But these guys in the middle, just like Sung Jae Im, Tony Feenau is striking the ball beautifully,

01:03and he was striping it today for sure on the range.

01:06I love his mindset. He seemed really like he was vibing around this place.

01:10He's hitting it good, and Tony's been good on Bermuda grass.

01:13He's gained with his putter in the last couple of events, so if you're concerned there,

01:16he's coming in with great ball striking and a hot putter.

01:20Let's go to the head-to-heads, and I was expecting, as always, usually if Jordan speaks in the field,

01:27you go after him, but not this week. You're giving him a break because it's his last tournament of the year.

01:32Well, I wouldn't give him a break if I could, but the problem is that Golf Wednesdays are becoming such a thing,

01:38they're not giving it to him as giving him anymore, but they're just not giving him to us anymore

01:43with odds that make it worth it. I'm not laying 150 in order just to take down Jordan.

01:47There's other guys that I can find that are out there that are wounded. There's no doubt about that.

01:52Let's start with, hey, Corey Connors. He's sitting number 30. That guy wants to guarantee Eastlake.

01:57He's been playing great. Eight straight top 30s, and then, of course, he's going against Victor Hovland.

02:01Victor Hovland, man, oh, man. He's 57th on the points list. He was FedExCup champion last year.

02:07He may not make it to Eastlake again, and it's because the short game.

02:10He's losing two and a half strokes per event. You can't do that at this elite field.

02:14I'm taking Corey at minus 125, and then Eric Cole, we talked about him already on Bermudagrass,

02:19positional golf course, make a ton of birdies. Seventh last week versus Mav McNeely.

02:24Mav McNeely, the ball striking is kind of trending downwards, and he was 45th last week at Wyndham.
