| 0:00.0 | Hello world, welcome back to golf subpar. We're a day late, but it's going to be well worth it. I promise you, but first before we get to our special interview, |
| 0:19.0 | so ladies, we got to break down the players where Cam Smith put on a short game clinic. My goodness gracious. He got it up and down from everywhere on on Monday, |
| 0:28.0 | to end up winning one of the craziest tournaments I've ever seen. One of the best up and downs most clutch up and downs you ever see. I don't know that he needed to get up and down from there, |
| 0:36.0 | there might have been avoidable to get up and down from 60 for Bogey on the last hole to pull it off with damn with what was going through him, you know, his, his heart at that time is he had insights how to be going crazy. That thing was nuts and just the whole tournament was not I mean we from the weather delays to the crazy win to the waves differential between the two Paul Casey and his drive into a pitch mark that was there from before we got drop, you know, controversy going on out there had a lot of action. |
| 1:00.0 | And you know, if you look at camp Smith's day, you made 10 birdies to shoot 66 and ended up getting the W by a shot over on Arbon LaHiri, but look at some of the stuff like he had a quack hook off 16 hit a great pitch out. And then I thought the best swing he made all day was the three iron for his third into 16. He had to 35 40 feet and damn near made the putt for birdie. |
| 1:20.0 | As soon as he had that on the green, I was like, don't count this one out. This might be the most unlikely birdie you've seen today. |
| 1:25.0 | People talk about the shot on 17, which was fantastic slash an accident, but I think that three iron was so big. I mean, if you happen to block that one in the right end up making possibly double on that whole opponent left and making bogey. |
| 1:36.0 | I mean, I think you're in a totally different mindset going to 17. I feel like when he made the par and tied Paul Casey on the whole. He's like, oh, shit, I'm great. |
| 1:44.0 | That's the big thing is like when that quick hook happens, then Paul guts one, you got to be thinking your brain like, all right, I don't even know if I'll be able to punch out over there. |
| 1:51.0 | At best case, I would think par is going through your head and maybe I can get it back out, get it on the green, just like he did, but Paul is going to make birdie from there. Probably have an eagle look. |
| 1:58.0 | This thing might be down to one going into 17 and 18. Anything can happen at that point. |
| 2:02.0 | And when he hit that three iron in there and then you get up and Paul's staring at his ball, like what the hell is going on. That was a tough, tough look for Paul on that thing. |
| 2:09.0 | I mean, to step up there, you know, there's only two shots back with that final stretch. Anything can happen and it just a seed out there and have it roll in there. |
| 2:17.0 | I watched it on the replay a couple of times. I was like, dude, it was like heat seeking. I was like, you couldn't sit there from three yards away and rollable. |
| 2:23.0 | Like you do a red bull. Exactly. |
| 2:24.0 | It just finds its way right there to the bottom. |
| 2:27.0 | So, but that shot on 17. I don't care if he pushed it. I don't care if he blocked it. Whatever it ended up right next to the flag stick. That was unbelievable. And then 18. |
| 2:36.0 | A, I didn't think you needed driver off the tee, but who am I to, especially since his last few shots with the driver hadn't been very good going back to that quick hug and you miss 14 and 15, I believe as well. |
| 2:46.0 | I didn't think he needed it. And then he got out there, I was expecting that punch out to go sideways. Just hey, dude, Bogey probably gets this thing done, but took it on and it's at the stage for one of the better up and downs, jealousy. |
| 2:56.0 | If we could get Sammy Pinner in here at some point, Caddy for Cam Smith, I mean, I have a lot of questions about 18. Like, first off, there was no hesitation. |
| 3:03.0 | He just immediately pulled driver after he struggled on it all week, hitting two in the water earlier in the week. |
| 3:08.0 | A whole that just doesn't set up well for him. And then the punch out, it's like, why even bring that water into play? |
