00:00
The players, round one, couple of things here.
00:03
First of all, Lucas Glover, six under, to start the day.
00:07
I mean, you gotta be kidding me with him.
00:10
You know what's funny, Mike?
00:12
Yeah, go ahead.
00:14
When I did all my stats crunch this week,
00:17
guess who comes up at the very top of my list?
00:20
Lucas Glover.
00:21
And I didn't do anything.
00:22
And here he is.
00:23
Looks like he's going to catch the first round leader ticket.
00:26
And then your boy, Captain Chandler Phillips
00:29
here at six under, 12 holes in.
00:31
And he's got a few holes to go.
00:33
But Pharrell said this before, and it's true.
00:35
Usually when you get majors and you get the players,
00:40
you want stacked names at the top of the leaderboard.
00:44
Now, you don't exactly have that now.
00:47
Hopefully by Saturday and Sunday, you will have that.
00:50
But as I saw someone making a joke on Twitter earlier today,
00:53
it almost seems like a continuation of the Puerto Rico
00:57
Open at the top of the board right now,
00:59
because we're off to a bit of a slow start with the names that
01:02
are at the top of it.
01:03
Well, we've talked about that all week, right, Mike?
01:06
You and I were on the radio show last night.
01:09
You get a lot of randomness at this particular tournament.
01:13
Stephen Ames, Tim Clark, Fred Funk,
01:16
Jerry Kelly was a fixture on this leaderboard
01:18
back in the day.
01:19
You remember Kelly from Wisconsin.
01:23
Ian Poulter was runner up here twice.
01:25
So it's not always Sergio and Tiger and Scotty and Mickelson
01:29
and Davis Love and Couples, the guys that
01:31
have won this thing before.
01:33
There's a bunch of other guys, Matt Kuchar, Webb Simpson,
01:37
Siwoo Kim.
01:38
There's a bunch of other guys that
01:39
are kind of that tier two, tier three,
01:42
even further down that have been major players at this
01:47
or winners of this event in the past.
01:50
It's that type of randomness that you get at the players.
01:52
And we talked about it as well.
01:54
I think it's a real testament to the Pete Dye design.
01:57
The guy, it's his masterpiece.
01:59
And it doesn't necessarily cater to just
02:01
one particular type of golfer.
02:04
No, it does not.
02:05
I know one thing.
02:05
It won't be catering this Saturday and Sunday
02:07
to the likes of Justin Thomas, Victor Hovland, Max Homa.
02:11
Those guys flying away this morning with six, seven,
02:15
and eight overs on their rounds.
