00:00How does what he showed you this week carry into Augusta National

00:03here in two weeks?

00:05Well, he's really, really good around the greens, like super creative,

00:08which you have to have some of that to be good at Augusta.

00:11He's got great touch when he's on the greens.

00:14Dr. Chepinski forgot to mention he has linked.

00:17There's there's plenty of things that he has

00:21that that could definitely make him a player that could contend at Augusta.

00:25I think what he's continuing to get better at, and I think you got to give

00:29maybe his caddy, Bo Martin, whose guy for Shane Lowry,

00:33a little bit of credit here is that I think for a long time

00:37with Minwoo, the talent was there, but maybe the decision making

00:42wasn't consistent through 72 holes.

00:44I think he's getting better, but it's not all the way there.

00:48Sometimes I think he he kind of runs and guns a little bit too much

00:52where Augusta, you really need to be at one shot at a time

00:56and have a strategy on your brain when you hit every single shot.

01:01So for men, I think it's just showing up with a good, solid game

01:06plan of knowing where to miss it, because Augusta National,

01:09that's really what it's all about, of where to avoid to not make double bogeys.

01:13And I think he could be a player that could contend that.

01:18I probably didn't feel that way quite as much heading into the week.

01:23Does a win change that?

01:25I think what I saw was a little bit more of a

01:29of control in his game throughout the week.

01:32I know the golf course was was easy and it's probably perfect golf course for men.

01:37But he's got a lot of a lot of tools in the chest.

01:40And Augusta requires you to have a lot.
