0:00.0	We're back on the early wedge.
0:12.1	My name is Cian Ajad, and I am joined by Patrick McDonald's and Jason Sobel, and we need to talk the memorial at Muirfield.
0:19.1	Patrick, I'm going to start with you.
0:20.5	This is a signature event. It's a signature event with a cut, which I think is kind of cool. Top 50 in ties. We got a par 72, 7,700 yards here, very tough course. Patrick, what are you looking for at the memorial?
0:33.5	Iron players. Iron players, iron players, iron players. You look at the leaderboard last year.
0:38.7	Sheffler won an approach. Marcawa, fourth an approach, Hadwin, second an approach. And then you look
0:45.2	at the best iron players over the last three months. Breaking news here on the early wedge, Scotty

1:20.4	Corey Connor, Shane Lowry, Cantlay is a guy who does well here.
1:23.6	I feel like those are the short list so far.
1:27.0	Jason, any additional thoughts there?
1:28.9	It particularly, because I do think approach play is obviously super important here across really all proximity, but certainly long irons very much in play.
1:36.9	But when it comes to guys off the tee, like when you look at leaderboards here, yeah, you got like the Titans at the top.
1:42.7	But there are some,
1:47.6	you know, shorter hitters that that succeed here and just some guys that aren't necessarily great off the T. If you're not outside of approach, is there something, what else are you looking
