Welcome to the Early Wedge Best Bed Show. I'm your host, E.C. This is what my favorite event of the year. I love the U.S. Open, and I'm so jealous.

Jason Sobel and Patrick McDonald are there. Unfortunately, though, Patrick is not here on the U.S. Open, and I'm so jealous. Jason Sobel and Patrick McDonald are there.

Unfortunately, though, Patrick is not here on the show, but we have capably replaced him.

Let's bring in the stars the show. We have Sobel out there at Shinnecock. We have Sia.

We have producer Josh who's going to sit in with us for the entire show.

And Sobel, I want to congratulate you, first of all. Now, Sia came really close with a $100 billion to one shot in Jackson Super. Last week, that was a great pick. You hit Sihit as one of the co-first-round leaders at 63 to 1, I believe. And you hit Zach Johnson as the winner of the senior tour event. Great job. Thank you. I appreciate it, but we're on to another week, U.S. Open this week. It's going to be a tough week. You know, all these tough conditions. You always talk about tough conditions in the U.S. Open. You guys got to see what I have to go through this week. I mean, this is, can you believe I mean, really? It's not even fair. It's horrible. I mean, come on. You're already covering this

event, which is going to be epic. Then you got to stay in a place like that. We'll see what special

guests you have for us tonight. See ya, you're the weatherman. I've always said you are the

show's weatherman,

especially now that Patrick is not here. These wind gus are for real this week. What do you make of it?

You've always said that, but literally not one other person has always said that I'm the weatherman.

So I will say this. First of all, it's great to have Josh at the outset of the show. Jason,

very jealous, but you have certainly earned that predic have Josh at the outset of the show. Jason, very jealous,

but you have certainly earned that predicament that you're in for the U.S. Open. Here's the thing.

It's going to be windy. There you go. That's your weather report. But specifically Thursday.

Thursday is going to be pretty extreme. What I'm trying to figure out in the chat can help me.

Maybe Jason, you and Josh can help me. So at first it appeared that the wind gusts were going to be extreme in the afternoon.

But that extreme forecast does seem to be peering into the early afternoon, maybe even the

morning. So I'm not exactly sure which way that's going to blow. But either way, it's going to be

really messy out there. There's probably going to be a wave edge. I still think it might be for the Thursday a.m. people, but we're still too far out for me to know. Josh, when you see the forecast here, I mean, you're a golf savant as well. I mean, I look at it, I see 40, 50 mile an hour winds projected at some point for the afternoon wave.

So at that point, you would think they're blowing the whistle or the blowing the horn and they're not playing, right?

If it really does, I can't imagine that there's not pretty drastic measures, whether it's the how slow the greens are on Thursday.
