00:00Um, all right guys, do you want to go first?

00:06So we're going to start with both teams, the leading point getter on those teams.

00:11Okay.

00:12All right.

00:13So I'm going to start with the international team here.

00:17And I think Sung Jae Im is going to be the lead point getter for that team.

00:23Just felt like he had a couple, you know, aberrations this year in majors.

00:27But he had just that, that incredibly solid stretch.

00:30He seems like a very kind of even keel guy.

00:33That's just going to keep chugging and not to say that, you know, a Canadian or even

00:38like a rookie like Min Woo Lee couldn't really feel the atmosphere and the energy and use

00:42that to propel themselves to, you know, winning three, four, you know, five matches.

00:47But I just feel like he's the guy that has the best chance of just keeping it nice and

00:51calm and steady and winning, picking off like, you know, three matches, maybe having another.

00:57So that's who I think is going to be the lead point getter on the international side.

01:01On the American side, this is kind of like a tricky one, because, you know, obviously

01:06your mind wants to go to Scottie Scheffler, but doesn't hasn't had the greatest record

01:11in team competitions the last two times out.

01:16You know, there are some, obviously, I think the goal is going to have a huge President's

01:20Cup, but as a rookie, it's tough to kind of put your eggs in that basket out of the gate.

01:24So I'm going to kind of I'm going to go call him or a cow here.

01:27I mean, just another guy, phenomenal season should have won the tour championship without

01:32starting strokes, a guy that I think is going to come in really hungry as though as you

01:36know, if you're talking about Scottie Zander and Colin being your big three, so to speak,

01:41you know, those other two guys have three of the four majors that were won this year.

01:44So I think Colin's going to be a guy that's going to want to come in and prove a big point

01:48this week.

01:49So I think he's gonna win the most points on the American side.

01:51All right.

01:52I was probably going to take home or cow assault, just take somebody else differently.

01:57I love Colin for the reasons of, of just accuracy off the tee, eliminating the left side of

02:02the golf course.

02:04And I think the putter too, I like them on these greens and just, you know, getting into

02:08the tighter sections.

02:10That's why I like Colin.

02:11But to go outside of somebody, you know, I mean, to me, I don't like Xander's much this

02:18week because over, you know, I think over the last couple of months, if there was a

02:23miss that he had, it was left, you know, that, that seemed to be a miss that he had, but

02:27I still love him on these greens.

02:29I would prefer probably Scottie over him.

02:34But that's kind of boring, right?

02:36You don't want me to say Scottie, but I'm going to give you Scottie Sheffler.

02:39So when you point getter and the international side, I want to give you Hideki Matsuyama.

02:44The reason why I'm not is I think Hideki is going to be up to the biggest challenge.

02:48I think he's going to be playing the best that, that the United States puts out.

02:53I don't know how they do the, like, if they just have put their five in order and then

02:57put it out or they kind of go back and forth in that session that I believe happens on

03:02Wednesday where the, where they kind of draft it in, in I don't know if they do it snake

03:07like they put out there.

03:08It's anyways, I just assume they do a draft, like it's like a, you know, it's a back and

03:11forth thing.

03:12Yeah.

03:14I think they're going to put Hideki against their best.

03:16And I think that makes it a little bit more challenging to win.

03:18The points are to be the highest point getter because you're just, it'd be really difficult

03:23to take down USA's best every single session since like, who's the guy that's going to

03:28be maybe like drawing different, you know, drawing rookies, drawing different match-ups

03:34every day.

03:35And my, my brain kind of takes me to it once I want to take Tom Kim just because I feel

03:44like this golf course really suits his game.

03:45It's a really straight and going to have, and going to have plenty of opportunities

03:49and I'm going to go with Tom Kim for that reason.

03:54Although the form isn't necessarily like, like it doesn't say that on paper, but my

04:00gut feeling is that Tom Kim is going to have a tremendous president's cup and I'm predicting

04:07him to score the most points for the international team.

04:13And I think it's going to be a really, really good season.

04:14And I think it's going to be a really, really good season.
