00:00a from my couch. I know Charlie probably feels the exact same way. That was the most exciting,

00:05you know, episode, I would say of this rendition of TGL. What say you?

00:12I agree. It was close. It was the whole thing was fun and having Tiger and Rory, the guys who kind

00:18of, you know, came up with this idea and the ones whose faces have been, you know, plastered onto

00:23it since the beginning to have them go together. Tom Kim was just, I would say, in President's Cup

00:28form. He was great. Yeah. And then, you know, Kisner brought his a game. But even, you know,

00:35that was the first one that was close. And they had the overtime, I guess, kind of like a chipping

00:40contest. So I think right until the very end, it was, you know, I was holding both interview cards

00:45for both teams. And I was like, I don't know which one I'm going with here. So it was really,

00:49really fun. And Claire, I mean, you mentioned Kevin Kisner obviously went from the last time

00:55they were out there thinning a bunker shot flagstick, which was hilarious. High comedy to

01:00winning this in overtime with a cross-handed shift. So about about as much reversal fortunes

01:06as you could have had. But we buried the lead a little bit here because you, of course, are as

01:10we all are on the show. Big time Tiger aficionado grew up falling in love with the game through the

01:15lens of Tiger. So I have a brief little show and tell here that we have to kind of do these one at

01:20a time. Right. So, first of all, here you are with Tiger last night. Claire's first ever Tiger

01:27interview, which is electric. But that's not where we're going to stop here. Right. Because

01:31we had you're not the only person on the show that sat in a media context with Tiger in very

01:36recent memory. We had, of course, Smiley at the hero here and the booth. So I'm doing my research

01:42and I'm feeling a little bit left out here. And I'm thinking, you know, how can I get in the mix

01:46with these two? So I just have one last piece of show and tell you that you're together. No,

01:52this is this is about two weeks ago. You know, me and Tiger. So here so we can officially say

02:00everyone on the show has had some piece of interface with Tiger. That is a very roundabout

02:05way of setting up Claire first interview with Tiger. How was it? I mean, it's got to be amazing.

02:10It was so fun. So basically, well, you guys know, like I'm usually, you know,

02:14for golf.com in the media center. And so I'll go to the press conferences and I've kind of,

02:19you know, gotten more confident in that over the last couple of years. I remember the first time

02:23I asked a question. I don't even remember what player it was, but like my voice was shaking as

02:27I asked it just because I was so not used to, you know, you're in front of a couple, you know,

02:31at the Genesis, there's like over 100 people in there. So I think it was good that it took a

02:36couple of years to get to this, because I don't think it would have gone very well if I had gotten

02:40this opportunity two years ago. So, um, but it was good. I was, I didn't, I felt like I didn't

02:46even need my notes because I've thought of, you know, what am I going to ask him for so long?

02:50And it was, he was great. He was in a great, you know, mood after that win. And then he had like

02:56some funny moments with Kistner. So I got to ask about that. And they, it said they worked out

03:01together earlier in the day, which I thought was funny. And then I don't know if you guys saw,

03:04I was like kind of semi-viral on Twitter, but he was walking in like with the jeans,

03:08the hoodie. And I had to ask what he was drinking, because I was like, that looks like

03:13it's a blended Starbucks drink to me. But everybody on Twitter was like, no, he's a,

03:18he's a latte guy. And I was like, I think he switched it up this time. And it was,

03:21it was a Frappuccino. So I was like, I led him into it. I was like, was that a Frappuccino?

03:27And he was like, yeah, he goes triple shot. So
