Summary

It’s Webb’s world, we’re just living in it! Webb Simpson carded the low round of the day on Friday to vault him into the co-lead with Chris Kirk. Can Webb win his second-straight Tour start (2:33)? Another player going for a second consecutive win is Chris Kirk who was victorious in his last outing on the Korn Ferry Tour. What are the odds Kirk notches another win this week (7:08)? Of course it wouldn’t be an episode of The First Cut if we didn’t chat Bryson DeChambeau, can his iron game come around over the weekend and propel him to victory (12:50)? We also chat about Matthew Wolff and his tremendous 2nd round and whether or not he can buck a recent trend of poor finishes (20:35). Finally we wrap with a dive into updated picks to win and advice for third round matchups and showdown games (21:44). ————————— Want to win $1,000 without putting any of your own cash at stake?
