00:00Let's get to the placements next.

00:05Adam Hadwin getting involved here and I noticed you got Daniel Berger on.

00:09I added him too.

00:11Seems like he's starting to finally put a little bit back together, Keith.

00:16Well, let's go with Berger first then.

00:18You know, I love him down there for a top 40.

00:21You know, last week he starts off rough in Utah, 72, then he goes 65, 65, 70.

00:27We always think that Daniel Berger's got some dog in him, but I tell you what, I think

00:31he's found some golf swing in him since he's come back from the back injury, which almost

00:34lasted two years.

00:35So I'm going to start to play a little Daniel Berger because this is a perfect fit for him.

00:39And if the wind kicks up with his low, you know, like faders ball flight and his ability

00:43to score with his wedges, his short game, the putter, everything, it's a really good

00:47fit back to the top, top 10.

00:49Adam Hadwin, he's got four top tens in his last five starts there at the Shriners.

00:54I'm not going to overthink the fall.

00:55The same guys play well here all the time because they're all the same courses.

00:59It doesn't matter if it's desert or not.

01:01You got to get to 20 under.

01:03They'll be dealing with the wind this week.

01:04So we added some scramblers, but really whether it's Bermuda or it's the Sanderson down in

01:09Jackson, Mississippi, it's the same sort of guys, top 20, Steven Yeager.

01:14He's been playing well.

01:15I expect him to finish well here again this week.

01:17Cam Davis is back from the last time we saw him, which was the BMW fifth place, top 50

01:23golfer in the FedEx Cup points this year.

01:25Cam Davis loves the Shriners and is a scoring machine.

01:28And Andrew Putnam, right?

01:30Putnam was good over there in the Dunhill in some tough weather, top 25.

01:35Andrew likes the golf course here and can roll the rock.

01:38We're definitely featuring putters to finish out the top forties.

01:41I've got Nick Hardy.

01:42Nick Hardy's been playing some good golf.

01:44Mike Carver lately.

01:45I don't know if you've noticed, but he's been playing good.

01:48Five straight cuts.

01:49His last couple, he's gaining over three and a half strokes per start.

01:53A guy to pay attention to.

01:54He's hitting the ball solid.

01:55And then last, Ben Coles.

01:56It's a birdie fest.

01:57Ben Coles has proven, I mean, he's ranked top seven in the field for birdie or better

02:01and birdies game.

02:03Let's finish it out with the head to heads and, uh, gee, you're going after JJ Spahn.

02:07I wonder why, uh, after going after JJ this week, well, if you chew up JJ Spahn, I'm just

02:14going to ask a couple of questions.

02:16Number one, where'd the putter go last two weeks?

02:18It's not there.

02:19And then, uh, two weeks ago, where did JJ Spahn go?

02:21He claimed he had an injury at Sanderson and he ejected from the tournament.

02:25So with question marks, I'm going to go against him.

02:28When I saw this with Harris English, a guy who's trending and one of the better players,

02:32Harry English is 54th in the FedEx Cup points list, right?

02:35So, so guess what?

02:36Right?

02:37A win this week, a top five this week, he doesn't have to play the rest of the fall.

02:40He'll be locked into those signature events, which is where a guy like with his talent

02:44should be.

02:45And then Seamus Power over Davis Thompson.

02:46We haven't, Davis is tremendously talented.

02:49There's no doubt about it.

02:50John Deere's had a breakthrough season, but we haven't seen him since the BMW.

02:53He eases his way back in and a guy like Seamus Power coming off two top 11s.

02:58I think he can get the job done.
