00:00I won a Hopkins tour event back in 2014.

00:05I beat Patton coming down the stretch just right before we were going to Q school.

00:08And him and I both didn't get paid.

00:11Actually, multiple weeks. It was wow.

00:13Geez, it's ragged.

00:14Yeah, ragged.

00:15So pick up your story on the nationwide tour.

00:18Yeah. So, uh,

00:21I mean, it's kind of going to take a little to tell this, but I'll tell it.

00:25Yeah. So.

00:28I'm a little outside the nose.

00:31Top 25 got their cards at the time, and I was probably around 30th

00:34and we were playing this tournament and and.

00:38Suboda or Suboba Springs in Southern Cal.

00:48All right. It's like inland, inland California.

00:51So we're playing there.

00:54And I'd already had like a couple of warnings

00:58about my attitude out there at the time.

01:01I was young and just full of fire.

01:03All right. Like just instant reaction and everything.

01:08Anyways, way too competitive. So.

01:14I got my last warning there

01:15and I was going to get suspended for a tournament. All right. So.

01:21The next week was Chattanooga, and it's Wednesday.

01:24Of Chattanooga or my agent calls me on Tuesday and he goes,

01:34If you get it tomorrow and we appeal, it's two weeks

01:38and that suspension will land the day before the tour championship

01:42and you won't be able to play in it.

01:44If we if you don't go to the course tomorrow

01:47and get it after your round on Thursday, we can appeal.

01:49And then since you start the tournament, you can finish it. OK, so.

01:53Wow, that's a listen. Listen. Listen. Yes.

01:57Let's ask the God.

01:59I don't even have to not go to the course.

02:01It rains all day on Wednesday that the whole thing gets canceled. All right.
