00:00What about just talking about keeping in that same category, maybe the best iron player

00:08that comes to mind or the best putter or short game from this group of four very tour graduates?

00:16So Frankie Sappen, he's the best.

00:20He'll be the best from around the greens and putting like he all year top five on the corn

00:24free to it.

00:25He still hits it a mile and great iron player.

00:27He just also accuracy struggled a fair bit down the stretch off the tee.

00:32I mean, we were even there was some when he tried to get his first victory, he was those

00:37holes where he was taking iron off the tee because he was just scared of the miss the

00:41previous day.

00:42But once again, the way he handled it, trying to get his first corn free to a victory, missing

00:48greens and having to get up and down.

00:50I think, as I said, the last couple of hours, he had to make three or four putts of around

00:5412, 15 feet to get his first victory, and he did it easy, poured him in.

00:58So he's a guy, I think, with that short game, I think Frankie might get a win this year.

01:05And I think he'll do it because that short game and the clutch putting, especially in

01:10big moments, when he dials it in off the tee and like kind of has those weeks where it

01:15works out, the short game is going to save him.

01:18And it's, you know, you can sit here and say, this guy's got a great short game, but it's

01:21almost like he thrives on that 12 foot putt when it means more.

01:26And I think that's just a big, there's a lot of guys coming off the corn free to that have

01:30the tools to get them in position to win.

01:33It's just making that two or three putts down the stretch when it really means the most

01:37with, you know, a PGA Tour player that's been there before and you haven't.

01:43I just think he has that kind of, I don't know, that dog in him that really, it doesn't

01:49bother him, the big situation.

01:50So.
