00:00Keith, you mentioned Scottie Scheffler at the pre-tournament price of 4-1, not exactly where

00:05you're looking, but when there's such a drastically short favorite and some really great golfers

00:10elsewhere in this field, it provides opportunity. Who are you keeping an eye on to have a great week

00:16out there in the Monterey? You know, of the favorites, you know, we're talking about Rory,

00:21we're talking about JT, Justin Thomas, we're talking about Colin Morikawa. Colin is one of

00:26my early leans this morning on the early line. I love Morikawa's form coming into here, and a lot

00:32of people forget this, but he went to Cal, so one of the keys this week, one of my Keith's keys,

00:37is you got to be able to putt on Poa Anna greens, and there's no doubt that he can do it, and this

00:41northern California Poa Anna tends to be some of the most bumpy, and then you go seaside, and it

00:47gets even a little bit more like a carpet versus really like that plush, you know, green surface

00:52that we're all used to at our local home course, and, you know, these guys are from this area,

00:58and, you know, I talk about the Mad McNeely's and those guys and the Tigers, they've all done well

01:02here because they played in this region when they were in college, so I love Morikawa, I love his

01:07accuracy, I love his ability to hit the driver, I love that Pebble Beach is the third shortest golf

01:12course on the PGA Tour, and it's a ton of wedge play. It is, you are going to hit so many wedges,

01:1875% of your approach shots come from 125 to 175. A little further down the board, I'm going to go

01:24with my boy Tom Kim, who I think Donnie's going to start calling Tom Sim after his MVP performance

01:30the other day on TGL, right? Tom Kim was electric on Monday night, I know, everybody was looking for

01:35Cooper Flagg, but Tom Kim stole the show, right? And at plus 6,600, I love him this week, he's fifth

01:42in the field on approach, and he seems fired up and ready to go, and you know what? This kid,

01:47he was close at the Travelers, and if you take away the Pacific Ocean, you know, very similar

01:51skill set that you need to contend, so those are my two early leans on the early line.
