Williams racing and part of my take learn more at dursal.com. Also shout out all the dads out there were taping this on Father's Day. You know you need batteries for all your kids toys. Everything that comes with being a dad, Dursal is the number one battery. It is the battery for part of my take. It is the battery for AWLs and it is the battery for Williams racing.

NOW Let's go! BYE! BYE! BYE! Now in the street there is violence and then a lot of stuff worth to be done. No place to hang out or washing and then again they all on the sun. Oh no, we're gonna rock it down too. He let trick our venue. And then we take it higher. Oh, we're gonna rock it down too. He let my take. He's in it by barstays sports. Welcome to part of my take. Today is Monday, June 19th and Windham Clark has won the US Open Windham Clark has won the US Open PFT when we had a final four of Ricky Fowler, Rory McAroy and Scotty Sheffler. Windham Clark is your US Open Winder. Big dub for Colorado. Yeah. Everything's coming up Colorado these days. Yeah, he's, uhham Clark is your US Open winner. Big dub for Colorado.

There's everything's coming up Colorado these days. Yeah. He's, uh, he is the US Open champion. There was a great leaderboard. I love the golf fans that just talk about how good the leaderboard is on Sunday. They root for the leaderboard almost sometimes. Um, the big loser this weekend was the course. That course sucked. I disavow that course. I know they're supposed to have another US open there and like 13 years or whenever they should take it off

They should take it off because there was no there was no big game feeling with this course It was a soft course You had two guys that shot eight under and the first round tied the record at a US open for it And then the course just got softer the marine layer everybody was talking about the marine layer like that was some sort of excuse. The course is a loser for making excuses. There was it was it was not becoming of a US open to be played at such a soft course. Yeah, it was so soft that Ricky Fowler who had the lead up until maybe the worst announcer's jinx of all time on Saturday night when he had like a four footer to have wire to

wire start to finish in the first three rounds lead. He misses that, but Ricky Fowler, who I think what he finished, he ended up finishing fourth, he broke the US open record for birdies. So that was like the course was not what a US open course should be. The crowd sucked. We found out halfway through the tournament that they only released like 29,000 tickets and then the LA Country Club bought half of those more than half of those. They're actually were in the works of trying to buy all of them and so it was very corporate. There were holes where it felt like no one was there. Matt Fitzpatrick said it like when he He had a hole in hole in one He's like that just didn't feel like I hit a hole in one at the US open and then we also had a plane NBC plane buzzing around the entire tournament I like I Know that this is a very old man thing, but I think most people agreed they're like what the fuck was that? Why was there a plane flying slowly overhead for the entire tournament? LA Country Club. Fuck you guys. I know you're the richest, most powerful people in the world. Stan Krocke, a member. So that's the first L Stan Krocke is probably ever taken. But yeah, the course was disappointing. The course was a big loser. Windham Clark, the big. Yeah, I mean, we saw the PGA championship.

The bunkers there were literally eating golf balls. If you get a ball embedded in a bunker at the PGA, that ball is gone. Sorry, you got to find a new one. Rory gets his ball embedded. What hole was that? That was like the 14th hole. Yeah, something like that. The ball is embedded in the side of the bunker. and then Rory calls the rules official over and they're like, oh, well, good news.

You can just reach your hand and pull the ball out and then take a drop, a club linked away. Oh, yeah, you can actually put that on the green. So you're good. You can just take it closer to the hole, made no sense to me. The course is a bitch. Also, like maybe plant some more trees, LA Country Club. How many times do we see guys miss?

Terribly.

Like, Wyndham Clark did it, I think, on the 17th, and he just hit it in the other fairway,

and it was like a perfect like he's like oh, yeah This is gonna be Uh decent angle like he can be able like you shouldn't be rewarded for missing I know the fairways are narrow there But like when you hit it in the other fairway, it shouldn't be like oh oh, no problem. You can still make par pretty easily. Bitch course.

Bitch.

The brancas, which is basically just like a dried up piece of dirt that's on the

side of a fairway. That doesn't really punish you that much. I didn't see any creeks out there. I didn't see any lakes. I didn't see any trees getting in the way. I don't like to see. I just about this. Listen, all the credit goes to Winham Clark because they all had to play

the exact same course and he ended up obviously playing well on Sunday. He knotted up when

he had to and he made some big shots But as far as as far as this tournament goes, I'm putting an asterisk on the US open this year Yeah, and now so we have Winham Clark was he deserves it he was like as everyone Scottie never really got it going in the, in the final round. Rory just couldn't hit like that one or two puts to put him through like he kept on going par. It felt actually reminiscent of the British Open or the Open Championship last year when it was like if he could just get one of these puts to fall and get a little positive momentum, He can win this tournament. And now, Rory, like, what, how long has it been since Rory won a, I think it's 2014. 2014. Yeah. 2014 is Rory. Oh, hey, Hank, is Rory a choker? So big hat. I was about to ask you this because it's been so long. I think if you go 10 years without winning a major, the narrative goes back. And now it's Rory will never win a major championship. He doesn't have the clutch gene. Mm-hmm. Like imagine 2014, you said, hey, we'll be in 2023 and Brooks Capico will have more majors than you, Rory. Who's that? We don't know who that is. So, yeah, I think if he finishes this, if he doesn't win a major, if he doesn't win the open championship this year, then I think started next season, Rory will never win a major championship because back to that conversation. And Hank and I were talking about this earlier, we have now officially activated ourselves into Brooks Legacy defense mode. So when it became clear that Ricky Fowler wasn't going to win, we just started rooting against anybody who already had a major championship. Correct. Because we don't want anybody to catch up to Brooks. Yes. No, no. You like Rory winning there and then now it's the five club he joins it in. No, I completely agree. I was rooting, I think we all, and I speak for America, we all were rooting for Ricky Fowler to break through because the story,

you're rooting for Rory over Ricky? No, I'm saying the world is rooting for Ricky Fowler. Oh yes, that's what I'm saying. The world, yeah, the world is rooting for Ricky Fowler. He, like the story about how last year his game was so bad that he was an alternate to being the US open, didn't actually play in the US open. Like he was, you know, whatever it was, like,

seven, eight years ago, he was with that group, Jordan's speech, Justin Thomas, all these guys who've won big tournaments and he never's been able to do it. It sucked because I really do think that put on Saturday night. Like I think he misses that and he just goes and he has to sit in his hotel room or his Airbnb and just be like what the fuck Like how did I miss that to go into the lead on Sunday and I do the course that was the night? His fault. He is a court. It was a course fault. It was the night the fact that they yeah, they were playing It was so fucking dark when they were playing on Saturday the whole tournament was a joke a joke Jay I usually like I I, real quick, Jig Jay, I usually like hand race.

Real quick, Jay, I usually like West Coast golf because it means that we get to watch the ends of these major tournaments in prime time. At night, and that feels awesome if you're on the East Coast, because getting to watch like the end of a U.S. open win, you know, you look outside and the moon's already out, you know, that's a cool feeling. And this guy, I don't want it to be dark where they're playing though.

And they did move it, they moved it up a little bit on Sunday so they weren't going to
