3:30
to see with how good a golf you've played over
3:32
the last year i don't know where they really were you on a date
3:34
back to succeed as was your first
3:36
when since the the toy nineteen open how
3:39
do you balance how good of golf
3:41
you've played over this recent stress without
3:43
having that you know that one huge peak week
3:45
you know what how big is the
3:47
difference is the from winning
3:49
golf to like t three golf right
3:52
i can't imagine that gap is that big was
3:54
aegis logo on sunday at
3:56
rory every point eight is hop in his
3:58
left again and all of a sudden you're going
4:00
down a playoff that's
4:03
he's obviously on be favored to win the playoffs who
4:05
knows what would happen and yeah
4:08
it's just it's not easy went on tour in that the some
4:10
people don't realize it's so hard to winnow
4:12
her and i think of give myself quite a
4:15
few chances over last year so never
4:18
really been the
4:20
neither snow really gone know
4:22
my way on on the sunday afternoon in
4:24
a the time maybe i didn't honor
4:26
i posted right time or are you know
4:28
it isn't just go and gonna grab i am
4:30
on sunday have more than i did
4:33
last two years have been quite consistent post
4:35
consistently like funeral top twenty five
4:37
of twenties and some
4:39
time you start to wonder nice article i'd
4:42
rather miss courts and when every now and
4:44
and then you know make every cause like
4:46
i missed many colds and last couple
4:48
years and like a set up in adam
4:50
very rarely actually down the bomb and leaderboard
4:52
radio fight know for fifty some that
4:55
i've always been kind of their their boats and a half this
4:57
week so we do started to kind of things
4:59
are to go to your head be just leave butcher didn't
5:01
believe it and right thing it
5:03
only get our lord it's every now and and and
5:05
i got or less on there was on as watching
5:08
your our chronicles of a champion the at the open
5:10
know championship videos of their just amazing
5:12
and they're they're super easy to help me prepare for podcast
5:15
but in that you said i'll take being streak
5:17
in when he big tournaments over been consistently average
5:19
i felt that ironic now i wouldn't that
5:21
you been consistently average anything but but
5:24
you been incredibly consistent really over
5:26
the last year without the words i just felt that quote
5:28
to be yeah it's funny guess as such
5:30
you know i use i don't win very often
5:32
but i seem to win beat ornaments when
5:35
i when which is a good trade to have so
5:37
hopefully say laid out in the seers
5:39
and i can knock off a noticable a big ones and
5:41
you know if here to tell me i'm gonna win twice or
5:43
three times over the next five
5:46
six eight years but are going to be beat ornaments
5:48
and probably take it you know i mean it's look i and
5:50
i wouldn't swap the open for twenty
5:53
wins yeah i mean i wouldn't i wouldn't
5:55
do it so the be tournament
5:57
are y los canales why it's like
5:59
er no morning to be honest i'm not a lot
6:02
and all below competing for the bigwigs
6:04
i absolutely love them and just are located
6:06
in the to the tournament than or look preparing
6:08
for done i actually an open ended in
6:10
a moment in them as off i'm gonna
6:12
throw some out you know not even sure there's a quest at
6:14
the end of it but it seems like as it relates
6:16
your past year in my mind there's golf where you
6:18
go to the golf course and you're working on something
6:21
to approve something for it you know improve in some
6:23
capacity and then there's golf where
6:25
you're going to the course like ready to compete
6:27
right like you got your stuff at and
6:29
it's at whole different
6:31
dynamic it seems like to go out there and play
6:33
competitive golf where you're thinking there's
6:35
my target i'm going to hit it there there's my target i'm going
6:37
to hit it there is that something you feel like you've
6:39
tapped into comparing that to times in your
6:42
career where maybe you've not had as much
6:44
success how different is that feeling
6:46
so i feel like feel like
6:48
feel a sense of moved to florida
6:50
yeah i'm ready to compete every week that
6:52
i'm ready to go every week i play a lot of golf
6:54
an era like that are actually enjoy
6:57
plan like so she dolphin don't obey him
6:59
and my friends on the weeks off and on
7:01
a thing that keeps me sharp the golf courses than
7:04
air grace the weather's perfect
7:06
the new pretty much play and like you know sooner tight
7:08
conditions what you depend on tour so am
7:11
i do feel like i'm ready to play every
7:13
week ago on tour and that
7:15
loony bin from last year's and a killer that's where my
7:17
consistency is on from me and i'll live in
7:19
in ireland the woman over here
7:21
to defend the states you feel the on the first few
7:23
days or maybe the first week of a three week
7:25
trip your comment they are you play might
7:27
you're playing your way into the tournament's are you you're
7:30
trying to find of our farmers and to work on some tomboy
7:32
genuinely feel like it or deftly ninety
7:35
percent of the time i'm ready to go i do
7:37
the like more so now than they have done
7:40
in the past and i'm like the whole started
7:42
to hold first four months or three months of the
7:44
share i don't like working towards
7:46
augusta and every round i played and everything
7:48
i was doing i was working on anything specifically
7:51
that every round i played i was like right up is
7:54
going around that's going around or if you know
7:56
one run forward it ghosts that you when
7:58
i finished second at the honda i really feel
7:59
like
8:01
i can it the one that
8:03
one i was a great maybe to golf and got to pay me
8:05
back nickel blue he can also say that i
8:07
i fell i was working towards a ghost about i'd
8:09
as a do feel like i'm ready to play competitively
8:12
more often out and album the past and
8:14
you had a quote that this past week that you spend your whole
8:16
life and your career getting up early everyday work
8:18
in your nuts off to get these positions and when you get nice
8:20
positions it's quite uncomfortable i
8:22
find that you know as much as you can train as much
8:24
as you can be ready there's no way to
8:26
simulate the back nine on sunday there's just
8:28
there's no way to practice at it just comes does
8:30
it just come from experience again yeah it'll
8:32
it'll put it no matter how many times
8:35
you put yourself there with your son and heir like i'm son
8:37
announce on l bre fiber if
8:39
i hate about shop it's gonna be like i'm
8:42
gonna be miserable mean it's like a tiger
8:44
the hit if hit hit a bad shot and
8:47
make bogey are you know can be
8:49
in it's like is one
8:51
of the worst weeks of the year until
8:53
you kinda get over it out and tell yourself all that stuff
8:55
like go golf but it goes week so it's kinda
8:58
because when you put yourself out there are
9:00
rewards are so big then
9:03
the bad ones are so bad that it kind of
9:05
there's no in between and and
9:07
i think that's why is he on quite nerve
9:09
wracking on it so i mean so much
9:11
of the time so yeah it was it it does
9:14
it is actually like that and you
9:16
spend your whole whole career
9:18
trying to get their money get there it's
9:21
like pretty like i go back to open all
9:23
the time that was the heritage
9:25
twenty four hours my life from sardine
9:28
and to so name and it was like
9:29
i know
9:31
working as hard as i ever have to try and get
9:33
back into a position so it's it's it's a funny
9:35
one that puts down some guy loved
9:38
him while we could do that thou was safe and co
9:40
op activity for later but it it kind of permeates
9:42
through through everything any conversation about
9:44
your career really and it's you know what
9:47
is the difference between you know what you just
9:49
went through this past weekend tight tight
9:51
tournament all the way to the end and
9:53
nursing a enormous lead
9:56
over the course of however many hours
9:58
in the tournament is tournament fair to say that that

13:22
the smile on your face as it's happening but are you have

in as much fun as it looks like or is their
13:27
inner turmoil the kind of prevent you from having that much
13:29

13:30
the alarm and not much for certain are assessed
13:33
that if there was a couple of times where on

14:18
more nearly done the sunday
14:20
june him he knows wanted older i really like that
14:23
the game within it's just it's
14:26
just pure the next the
14:28
next twelve to twenty four hours was just
14:30
filled with pure here because i felt it
14:33
almost like i spoke about wentworth and
14:35
been an overnight five iron an outsider they
14:38
are that you're going to be great or the
14:40
awful i'm that's how i felt
14:43
and i said it's my coach amazon the mana the organisers
14:46
no there's no it's either first or last
14:49
for me today there's no second place without
14:51
any second a myself in his last because i
14:54
made a bet they're my prayers are you want me to worse
14:57
and co the i do feel like i'm
14:59
i didn't win a tournament florida i
15:01
probably would have taken very hard that
15:03
you you know scottish shuffler had some comments
15:05
after you on the masters of say in how he was in tears
15:08
sunday morning just felt like he was not
15:10
ready for the moment could you you know you been in
15:12
that exact situation with a different tournament but
15:14
can you relate to that are absolutely
15:16
another way i like i was lion
15:19
i was in a good position on on sunday goes the nation
15:21
is edited every on the houses had lots been
15:24
there is not gonna be like he's
15:26
not gonna flat great gonna
15:28
throw really is breakfasts you know online
15:30
and he commands said of aphorism i
15:33
think that they're wanting to probably help him
15:35
in the help me on that sunday was the all looked
15:37
where i think he will try and boggling
15:40
opens and all it's fine i just when a joyous
15:42
you know your any kidding yourself if you're if you're gonna do
15:44
if you're sand i think if he own up
15:46
to like i owned up to the my coaches had look i
15:49
have to go on windows for a month that there's no
15:51
detroit i've known her choice install
15:53
your note when he said look easy he didn't feel
15:55
you is ready for that know that
15:58
i would like she didn't help you and as one like
16:00
to do when i'm nervous that a double on
16:02
sunday gone and seventy in of says i'm
16:04
absolutely the op cit myself her phone
16:07
does a marijuana be in this is what i want to do
16:09
so how much did your
16:11
close call and twenty sixteen at oakmont
16:14
factor build strength with a what
16:16
what does that you know that kind of close call
16:18
that result that's ultimate you know failure
16:21
if you will how did that lead to twenty
16:23
nineteen what are they do for you
16:25
yeah look i think you're probably had
16:28
it into one thing i did oakmont am
16:30
but unfortunately it is very difficult of
16:32
course i think if i hadn't set
16:35
myself have a different target of money or
16:37
the or themis over target impose your bike
16:39
but make for by birdies the
16:41

18:27
at wentworth after the flagship event seems like a
18:29
good time to take stock in the dp world
18:31
tour and it's future you know you put your support
18:33
behind it's what has happened over last
18:36
couple years you know it's obviously been
18:38
extremely damaging there's no avoiding that but
18:40
what do you think about the future of the toward the decisions
18:42
that have been made more recently the increase
18:44
alignment with the pj tour and whatnot kind
18:46
of where it where it's taken stock of it as of this
18:48
mama what are what are your thoughts
18:51
yeah look i think our this is been
18:53
a tough ears for the for the dp world
18:56
tour was you know colbert especially you
18:58
know call was been told for another c e
19:00
o's or something going on has been really top
19:02
or night and i always
19:05
when the rumors going around about live and as
19:07
dot i die i actually always feared for his
19:09
for the or be door and and and i wonder what has
19:11
gone up moto gonna do am personally
19:14
i was happy to see them aligned with the puget or think
19:16
it's good for is good for me for
19:18
a you know itself asleep when i think is good for
19:20
for golf as well i think am
19:23
you know i i duty with his supporters
19:25
opiates or that a deep you aren't or
19:27
can become stronger and the can look after a player's
19:30
better and i think it is gonna do that i think
19:33
the issues that players
19:35
may have it does
19:38
the only of garbage is thrown around so much money
19:40
that people feel like the
19:42
dp world for should have taken out or
19:44
maybe could have taken that on had done
19:46
money there but that's too
19:49
quick have a face when you're talking about
19:51
golf and general like and and
19:54
like i'm linda i was in the meeting say it
19:56
with with all allowed in delaware and
19:58
i was just like i'm like com am i
20:00
glad to meet each make sure we're doing what's right for golf
20:02
now was right for us the goes
20:05
we're not always gonna be there because his and
20:07
i do feel like what did if you aren't or
20:10
amanda peet at or have gone over
20:12
last year or more will will do
20:14
going forward is or
20:16
for the game a golf than anything else and and
20:18
us that's how i feel about the whole thing
20:20
i'll just look i'm i'm very lucky dog
20:22
the life i have to golf and to be
20:24
no dp one torpedoes or whatever but
20:28
it's not my god given right to go on the
20:31
often the be part
20:33
of something that could actually the
20:35
are buried or source it's it's
20:37
useful to me to gonna hold my place there as
20:40
long as someone else when it when it's my time to
20:42
to gonna go off and sell off into
20:44
the sunset so and yeah but
20:47
i do i do think hopefully
20:49
what's going on now will strengthen
20:51
the dp world or under p at or and
20:53
hopefully sauce in general it can become
20:56
better going forward
20:58
waterways i can go with that will stick with the
21:00
hours you to make the pits your top level player
21:02
on the pj tour in the db world tour let's
21:04
say on a mid level mid tier
21:07
player on the dp world tour or the puget
21:09
or we could maybe have to separate conversation free to those but
21:11
on a major player and i'm concerned about
21:13
the the direction of things to the fact that the top players
21:16
all mats and we're all this in come
21:18
up with as i'm concerned right now what would
21:20
you say to me ah to
21:22
maybe alleviate some of those concerns or make the pitch
21:24
to me that the direction going forward is the best
21:26
way
21:28
wait the to beat it ordered
21:30
the viewer or well tell me where to start you know
21:32
let's let's start with the be rathore coming off wentworth
21:35
while if you look at the at the world
21:37
tour de gonna be banned from armani in the next
21:39
five years and it and the ever
21:41
the only known are not going to be there for twenty five million of
21:43
in each was you would likely paper
21:45
for
21:47
like
21:47
we are not are not the market rate gray that's
21:50
they're getting received as it is greta it
21:52
has like like
21:53
you know
21:55
this thing of of golfers been
21:57
feeling like a word hundred million dollar
21:59
contract you know what we're not the nfl
22:02
or the end they were not the n b a
22:04
in my opinion you're worried we are smaller
22:06
sport that nose and we do need to be very
22:08
careful you hate
22:10
i hate that the minute were how
22:12
divisive gotta be honest i
22:14
think if we divide our top players they
22:17
will be in trouble so that's what i'm
22:19
worried about the i know or
22:21
know where your anything else ordered and the sport
22:23
in general are no you don't know worried about myself
22:25
for and i'm very
22:27
fortunate i do my load again and i'm okay
22:30
i'm just worried about the sport and i just hope it's okay
22:32
and what what what i say today the
22:35
boy than the db world tour
22:37
you know at the end of the day
22:40
wait there's no doubt about it was we we all play
22:42
a not equal playing the only
22:44
euro the my main goal was to
22:46
get the puget or the play in the
22:48
majors and planned to be dollars but i always
22:50
go back and supported the be went on i can and
22:53
a thing the thing
22:55
that you know the templars going to get the cards
22:57
from the db world or for magazine dot incredible
23:00
the a few journalists as i played
23:02
by their every kid your
23:04
neto much you jordan the other day noise twenty
23:06
six i'm like you
23:08
know the next twenty years or the next
23:11
ten years unlike you
23:13
got a great opportunity get says the puget or
23:15
nothing the argument
23:17
that dot sometimes
23:20
i was just gonna take a top players away from to
23:22
the be right or for his as he is just gonna
23:24
make them better and then when we come back for going to
23:26
be are gonna better players come on back complain
23:28
or be tournament's on i i
23:32
i think i think personally water
23:34
down his goods course you know everyone has their
23:36
own opinion that their plane and and like i'm
23:40
not like i said my maiden i didn't give too much
23:42
of an opinion because i'm like a tiger woods said
23:44
that rory micro center unlike i
23:46
let those boys don't don't boys they're to people
23:48
that deserve to have an opinion on that they
23:50
have been at the carpet again for a long long time
23:52
and on their yeah we just
23:55
will have to sail goes by do i do i am continent
23:57
it's own and right direction my uncommon
24:00
i tried to set up the bears and hi
24:02
i'm concerned that they're going to be playing a better
24:04
to work for better money and
24:06
you know
24:07
all three days because that's where
24:09
i think is a starting point of hate
24:11
the status quo what has been going on going
24:13
the past the past not the other option right
24:15
is likely or it's not on either tour
24:17
really so one we have to evolve
24:20
and i'm saying we saying terms of if you know if
24:22
i was a dp world to remember got remember evolve
24:24
is one way and aligning with pj
24:26
to be epic reap the benefits of that alignment
24:28
which alignment and my understanding my understanding
24:31
my is elevating events
24:33
that are co sanctioned amongst the ip world
24:35
tour and the puget or seems to be a great
24:37
way to do that the scottish open i thought was great success
24:40
i would love to see the irish open fallen that same
24:42
vein i would love to see be him that he pj
24:44
i don't pretend to know all the inner workings all
24:47
that stuff that seems like the best path forward
24:49
to satisfying the members the dp
24:51
world tours to say that to make clear
24:53
what the benefits are the possibility of qualifying
24:55
for those elevated events are getting into them in some
24:57
ways ah and knowing that they have
25:00
a a path to the pj tor seems to be
25:02
the pitch is an affair with summary out summarizing
25:05
the i do think so i do think there is a dirty
25:07
the john said no down the line some
25:09
of our bigger events in your the can
25:11
call sanctioned and will be you know maybe
25:14
a part of the elevated events odyssey looks
25:16
i'll be speaking for me that would be
25:18
great at it i'd like to see that post
25:20
you know i like it said a dual want
25:23
what's right for golf but i do think you
25:25
know if you want to be home the best new world
25:27
you have the bars if you want to become one of
25:29
the best while you have to play against the best normally think
25:32
this alone or with the pages or is given our
25:34
players neural more opportunities
25:36
play against the western world and i think if
25:38
you do to us is only going for the game
25:40
and it's gonna create the bigger
25:43
stars in different countries all around
25:45
the globe and i think that
25:46
that's what we want war i
25:49
gotta admit if admit look back at you know your
25:51
comments in the past and in the comments of other
25:53
players in the pass anyone that has uttered the
25:55
phrase i'm not phrase politician or
25:57
were just tried to grow the game added
26:00
it up at live it right as you are one that has
26:02
not as i don't believe us currently on the table
26:05
for you but i want to know what
26:07
you know go back what what has been
26:09
your decision making process or do
26:11
factors gonna do your decision to make no
26:13
end up where you are and how that
26:15
in i want to compare that you can speak rather
26:17
players the compare that to other players i wonder what
26:20
what we're sorry what was your decision to be made
26:22
the latter i'll give a couple of stories
26:25
i the always ended on played
26:27
a game for money or never have and
26:30
i feel like that's why of he or didn't even entertain
26:32
a to be honest and the
26:35
i have said the cobbler's i've gone to name a
26:37
so why do you bet if you play the game for money
26:39
maybe you should probably do it if if
26:41
he met again for trophies be shouldn't
26:44
like i slow down the eighteen green us on and how naturals
26:46
him and of the names on as like that who's who
26:48
of your people from unlike incredible
26:50
of my name is to go under i
26:52
want to anyone and in fact i was that
26:55
we had a few drinks and some the night and are like eleven
26:57
o'clock somebody says me unless you doing today
27:00
i'm like i honestly have no idea and
27:02
early nowhere like
27:04
they wouldn't believe me and i'll make a genuine the
27:06
have no idea and i do i owe my
27:08
phone good admin on my phone i old my phone
27:10
and had to go to the text the they got the european tour
27:12
to see how much of one and ask i know
27:14
how that's why i played a game and the
27:17
gonna guys you know i've got good solid
27:19
people around me my wife my wife
27:21
had a big part the party planner
27:23
because was never much of a thought in my head but
27:25
she said me so santa ana money isn't
27:27
going to make you happy was gonna make you happy as can
27:30
be in at the highest level of that that's
27:32
the reason i've never and and not regional
27:35
never gone because the reason
27:37
i haven't even all of that i don't think it's
27:39
going for the game and that's that's why it's
27:42
it's never been a top process a
27:44
i think it's a deferred com you know one
27:46
of my reasons why didn't think live would
27:48
work was how to perk
27:50
current top level professional golfers are well
27:52
compensated right if that viewed opened up
27:54
your phone is said you want one hundred grand for winning
27:57
one of the biggest events and somebody else
27:59
was offering up for into when one it might be a
28:01
different decision making process right if you guys
28:03
we're not making a very very good
28:05
living i think it would be a different decision making
28:07
process and i want to have this
28:09
comes you can laugh when i when i met a the a what
28:11
the politician thing i want to have this conversation
28:14
with a player right because i take our
28:16
i myself was one of them that there were some backlash
28:18
to that comment i guess and what do you regret
28:20
say matter that kind of angle of it or do understand
28:22
why people had done a different viewpoint of that
28:24
if you will
28:25
i absolutely understand and when i
28:27
said i was like when you were
28:31
wrong thing to say yeah little guys
28:33
up but the thing is thing went i played
28:35
i played this idea in our son from last for
28:37
years so for me like
28:39
i'd be very with his earnings hypocritical if
28:41
earnings said and said it's said it's where to police
28:43
com are you just think
28:45
it's bad for the game and that's kind of that's
28:48
that's how i feel about it's a when
28:50
i go back and over the internet and make sure no cause
28:53
i do think that this is bad for the game because
28:55
i think is very divisive on a thing we
28:58
would love to be going out on plane to be
29:00
tournament's on with i'd love with all
29:02
the top years ago the occasion
29:04
is broke prices you know a
29:07
lot easier also flanagan suitable were
29:09
not enough to get and us
29:11
the reason is because the lives so and
29:13
yeah i don't he has will trigger nautical
29:15
is an interesting conversation right because it
29:17
you know that there's been many many many
29:20
takes about this whole thing one of them as hey the
29:22
puget or as all the sponsors the do business
29:24
in saudi arabia right or you know the
29:26
european tour held up an event in saudi arabia
29:28
and i think it's to your exact point there
29:30
there is a large large large difference in my
29:32
view as well of playing one event
29:34
in saudi arabia which i would disagree of on people that
29:36
used to play it in other people are are welcome to you
29:39
know agree with that or whatever and
29:41
totally can completely disrupting the infrastructure
29:44
of golf that is set up quite well right and
29:46
right and set rather selfish reasons
29:49
reasons guys that are leaving are getting a better deal
29:51
out of this than the world that they're leaving behind and
29:54
i just i find that interesting conversation to
29:56
have someone like yourself who you know if
29:58
it's a it's an interesting question what
29:59
what level of
30:02
a statement is it politically for
30:04
players to go play in a specific tournament
30:06
and it's not something that a lot of players necessarily
30:09
think critically week to week and what should
30:11
they ahead i think that's one thing to come
30:13
out of there's no clean answer to that you know yeah
30:15
but the reason and the reason i went to play
30:18
i just when the open in
30:20
twenty nineteen they signed a deal to
30:22
go cater for two years when of the european tour events
30:25
in abu dhabi dubai and saudi arabia
30:27
drama sunday dinner and he says reno's as
30:29
dirtier an ankle my complaint american
30:31
and for me at the time maybe others
30:34
wrong to think it's they got yet
30:36
a fine on do that and does not elbows
30:38
i say i don't play the game for money but there
30:40
was i was going well looked
30:42
after for governor general i mean and as pets
30:45
that's the reason i went with
30:47
been a long that it because of the european tour
30:49
of and as well they just for legos
30:52
you know is fishy yawn or ryder cup
30:54
years of the guy you're gone you're picking up points
30:56
seems awfully dark maybe
30:58
i misjudged the room when
31:00
i did us and i
31:02
definitely felt that they share when i was going there that
31:05
you know oilers what not
31:07
one of the better like golfers in the world at the time
31:09
post and by as a for my contract
31:12
and i went the i'm one of the players
31:15
paint them live he should
31:17
be gone
31:18
yeah i i don't i don't like the idea so yeah
31:20
that makes total sense to me it really does
31:22
i mean it again the scale of those decisions
31:24
i think is a is what i appreciate
31:26
you welcoming welcome your questions something that because i
31:28
know it's not be it's not been so
31:31
yeah it is hoped to talk subject for me
31:33
to talk on because
31:35
i've never been outspoken honor and
31:37
or on last week when i got asked about it
31:40
people ask me why even own a slogan them like the normally
31:42
ask me about it because i'm not i'm from the media
31:45
read and rory barrios wagner because
31:48
every day you guys around the golf is
31:50
us better and i can imagine how difficult
31:52
it is for him
31:53
it is awkward as you were expecting it to be
31:55
among some the live players at last week at the
31:57
bmw pdf it was
31:59
yeah
31:59
i felt i felt there was to
32:02
be honest i am i don't know voter people very
32:04
good friends are you know lives does
32:07
last dog friendly were for a long time eliza
32:09
been com quite closer
32:11
i don't think it's gonna tarnish our friendship i
32:15
just want see them it's energy
32:17
my passing i'm just not going to see mighty
32:19
once or twice a year so we won't hang out much
32:21
at all left on a dusty waited and then you are
32:23
not when you're not hang and i was on them you don't
32:26
you don't say very friendly with them or be home for
32:28
you are as close so yeah i thought
32:30
it was very awkward i personally don't like see in the corporate
32:33
ladder there and that word air to
32:35
wasn't too many like oil or said
32:37
a thirty liters thursday the
32:40
older stalwarts of european tour
32:42
the have been around for a long long time
32:44
kind in his mind them be in there but then i
32:46
kind of like of maybe they shouldn't be there
32:49
if i was one of those were the went live i
32:51
was no showed up does not account i would have been there
32:53
would have until call to have me there
32:56
were there no was offered and it
32:58
was pretty awkward or times be on oh
33:01
good
33:01
we've been making the point for a long
33:04
time as exactly why these players should not
33:06
be allowed in these events right so lot people the
33:08
on the surface level like hey do you want dustin
33:11
johnson in your pj tour event like if you're a
33:13
sponsor the answer to that is yes right a
33:15
in on it on isolated basis right
33:17
the grand scheme was can you help explain
33:19
if you believe this why that can
33:21
not that i shouldn't necessarily be the case or why
33:24
you know why the infrastructure pro golf in
33:26
terms of grouping your marketing and media rights
33:28
why it makes sense for those players to kind
33:31
of beyond one of the east of what the be on live
33:33
or be bdp will towards less pj to
33:35
yeah
33:37
the galleries and if if if later
33:39
no doubt those birth and the event strengthens
33:42
the field crime makes it makes the feel better
33:44
both i feel like their
33:47
actions over the last few months
33:49
out
33:50
their actions going to leave didn't they knew
33:52
i was gonna happen my live on there was gonna be disruptive
33:54
and i was gonna be divisive and i was
33:56
gonna be all the things and
33:59
and the think that they can just
34:01
gonna come back and play whenever they want
34:03
you know they're gonna be playing for the live events
34:06
make sure they're going to have dared
34:08
a that might be upset some of our bigger remains
34:10
and then the mobility those i just don't think
34:13
i don't eat a toddler true probably the fact that he thought
34:15
i'm going to be allowed plan was gonna be all
34:17
very easy oh yeah i
34:21
in order to talk directly relate and to visit
34:23
or been pretty scenery that and your a prick for
34:25
the next one will i think that
34:27
he maybe there's a corker said some sage
34:30
the see if they can play and maybe
34:32
that's one of the reasons they also don't last week to
34:34
show that they wanna play maybe to had
34:36
to go and play and for for that reason
34:38
why i don't know why , goes to the
34:40
get go back your chronicles a champion of
34:42
a champion and hearing you talk about falling in love with
34:44
the game and then here in of i talk about court
34:46
cases well played tournaments i just can't think
34:49
of a go out more you know a more
34:51
opposite ends of the spectrum and like when i love
34:53
about golf and my guys suing their way to get
34:55
into professional golfer sets like the
34:57
really really flirting with the
35:00
interest of fans right of of white
35:02
people tune in to watch golf and why people tune
35:04
into what sport i mean it's it's to
35:06
be entertainers to be that question
35:08
mark of caring about what happens down
35:10
the back nine of poor ross like you can't
35:12
replicate that you can fake that anywhere right and
35:15
stretching out the golf world and a
35:18
in this way i personally just don't believe
35:20
it's a good path towards so
35:22
i feel like how like feel a golf is
35:24
like
35:25
even aware like mean you were in golf like
35:27
a murmured dived a while and
35:29
call from and we love the game and
35:32
the lobby beloved game but in
35:34
in the grand scheme is in golf is actually a small
35:36
sport it's not that big of a sport
35:38
were very lucky that
35:40
corporate america and corporate
35:42
a want to corporate around the world loves golf
35:45
and us while we such great sponsors nuts while you're
35:47
there from on the money when i do feel like
35:50
this is called and a division
35:52
in the game and if that is as
35:54
gonna piss people off they're going to stop
35:57
watching this you know he
35:59
bolted
35:59
i think the amounts of money darwin
36:02
thrown around europe say to discuss and at the minute
36:04
even
36:05
even i feel like you know i see like
36:07
all people talk about was money know i'd
36:09
fill up a two people don't talk about what's
36:11
your way in a i'd be like to pages or
36:13
for ten years and tried to get money out
36:16
are you know would play for points now in the
36:18
fetish called then even
36:20
you know you got to watch the torture i watched it
36:22
or township all the commodores talked about was how
36:24
much when you don't want to win and i was like the
36:26
just talk about the trophy or that title
36:29
or gone away and are you know how many times
36:31
tigers wanted to feel talk about
36:33
gonna search oregon has surpassed
36:35
by your if we win this or a jewelry store played
36:37
out a
36:38
i feel like
36:39
the i think it's just the school sentimental
36:42
money though we're talking about israel's it's a turn off
36:44
for a lot of fans i know yeah like
36:46
i literally his death the general the
36:48
general know till so
36:50
if a guy that works is not
36:53
often a fifty grand a year and
36:55
you know has a struggle maybe even to pay a membership
36:57
at the golf club
36:58
longer the game so much this is partly because name
37:01
or or ninety one or leading to surrounding the the
37:03
yeah i think it think oh this year felt like
37:06
with all the other money being thrown around thrown
37:08
around it was maybe time the toward decide
37:10
is time for us to emphasize hey how about how well
37:12
we are playing we were paying your players have
37:14
a lot of money right it's that's is the out
37:16
a bad living there but i i i agree it's not
37:18
why people root for certain players as for their
37:21
for their bank accounts but would you say
37:23
it the you know you're in the room in delaware as you mentioned
37:25
one player that was in the room so far as left
37:28
for live but or other remaining
37:30
other twenty two guys how good you feel about
37:32
the bleeding has stopped they are they're not gonna lose a
37:34
lot more those guys it seems like the consensus of that
37:36
meeting was unanimous or they agreeing
37:38
on the path forward neiman has already left
37:40
since then i've as he left since then but what
37:43
does your cents on a has the bleeding stopped
37:45
if he will amongst top players
37:48
yeah i always think i'd
37:50
, fairly confident that teresi guys
37:52
not rumor okay now and ah
37:54
for makes me concerned the beach resort fellas
37:57
a gathering those twenty
37:59
players are
37:59
daphne you know
38:01
they're going to raise a of out of doors when
38:03
he bears are the bounty to be yet or
38:06
and i wrong they're trying to beat it
38:08
or it think it will be it will be the best
38:10
for i do think though he weekend wrong
38:12
conclusion that made them or me all know that we
38:15
we do need to play against each other more often and
38:17
korea better spectacle because the
38:20
ended error in the entertainment business and we want
38:22
to make sword or entertain and at the public
38:24
him and i were were putting on
38:26
a good the a good tv on as on a sunday
38:28
afternoon it no matter what ornament
38:30
a be and so i think i was gonna that
38:32
was one good thing that came out i made nothing dot
38:34
was gonna be there for golf on board
38:36
i think i do gotta do some not that demographic
38:38
to is that that their pictures the huget
38:40
media etti brave it's gotta be a lot
38:42
younger terms of who's watching golf it seems like
38:45
to the eyes as he so we need
38:47
to you know there may be
38:49
over the last twenty years golf has
38:51
really changed much maybe we will we need
38:53
to change as a little bit or maybe live
38:56
the label on his make an exchange
38:58
it for the better post by still
39:01
to heroin and i don't still
39:03
don't think that my knowledge
39:05
concerned cause problems that we
39:07
should trying to lose there's a lot there's don't drop
39:09
by i'd still don't believe that
39:11
the to thing is me right sorry
39:14
i go play might ornaments
39:16
the try and do my best and
39:18
i go home and i'm very force it on
39:20
the life i have been that's that's how we feel about and
39:22
like i've never been look i've never wanted on
39:24
their the guy's not the miles bears have some random
39:27
we should be pampered twenty million a week we
39:29
should be doing this to be your torch be given us this
39:32
i have a life that i target never would have the
39:34
be honest from the be yet or
39:36
and yeah i'm only i'm i think
39:38
people might listen there's something on bullshit new
39:41
but i actually i am not a know i've
39:43
never been more
39:44
the sit around and say this you ought to be your torso
39:46
than shouldn't be doing i'm very happy or
39:48
what i have
39:49
am i lolled girls the way it is
39:52
i love to be yet or and european toward where
39:54
the are and i
39:56
am i see a bit about like a traditional when it
39:58
comes to college when i do love the
39:59
the events and i do love all the history with
40:02
at from and i want to windows of and
40:04
that kind of why i play and
40:06
everything else the conduit is kind of secondary for
40:08
me so i don't really have an opinion on the
40:10
that
40:11
why i gotta say i do blame you
40:13
a little bit in terms of how i interpret
40:15
how things would play out with live because
40:17
your comments about the ryder cup last year
40:19
just hit me so deeply i can help shape
40:22
what i understood professional golf to be like you
40:24
guys play for a lot of money my is important
40:26
but the wiki weren't being paid was
40:28
you've what you called the best way you had a golf and
40:31
i guess i naively thought that sentiments
40:33
would have been shared by a lot more players that
40:35
it has apparently because that's that
40:37
just made me super happy to hear that be
40:39
a reacts in a week where you guys had have a very poor
40:42
week as a team and a result was not what you
40:44
wanted you had the time of your life playing
40:46
it and ah out out that was that
40:48
was heartwarming to be i guess i i got that's why
40:50
that was one of the reasons why i honestly thought this
40:52
they would not get off the ground but out of you could speak
40:54
to that week in terms of with why you walked
40:56
off that a walked away from that event just feeling
40:59
that warm and fuzzy
41:00
it made me because we got absolutely com
41:02
for and like guy
41:04
i went in the way of thinking no matter what happens
41:07
for the rest of my career i want to be a bulk of those
41:09
or i'll i'll do anything i'll make
41:11
the coffee i'll do i'll do anything
41:13
as long as and air and trying
41:15
to help your of when i i want to beat
41:17
her and it was just the most incredible
41:19
week the to be there kind of
41:21
fighting for your year
41:24
team and your tour and and all laugh
41:26
and i'm trying to win points and plan
41:28
against such a good american team and kind of very
41:30
funny
41:31
the hostile crowd would i love that i love
41:34
doing that and i i i logged every
41:36
bit of of them and to be honest i
41:38
didn't think
41:39
i didn't know what to expect when i was going there because
41:41
it never been been to one or played month
41:44
and are you stephanie different don't i target
41:46
be i was a bit more animated and i thought
41:48
it videos a bit more for
41:50
it than i thought to be an underground of those a lot calmer
41:53
than they thought to be felt really
41:56
really tonight try
41:58
to own up to a natural
41:59
they were local the only one one over three points for
42:02
there was yeah the one of the best way to my prayers
42:04
bullied it is that me
42:07
the the most memorable week in my career as
42:09
he was just a day sitting around
42:11
a team room every night with
42:13
everyone was just that was one
42:15
of the best part of again the no i don't pretty well
42:17
and yeah it was on it was weeks rounds
42:19
remember
42:20
the made me just want to be don't accept
42:22
tell the story of a lot of know which
42:24
night and and team room it is but when when the introductions
42:27
are made of the rookies added to the team
42:29
right i heard to details of the
42:31
video that plays and kind of the the moment
42:34
that becomes when you guys got your number
42:36
of right the of the which number players you were
42:38
in european ryder cup history and whereas you could tell that story
42:41
for a quaint with and i wish for every captain
42:43
tries to date or base and try to different saying
42:45
you ain't ways i think it was to one
42:48
sixty four or one sixty five i was one
42:50
sixty three anyway when you realize
42:52
how few people have achieved pedro the country

43:50
over there were some back and forth on on
43:53
concessions and hours of suggest
43:55
years made on likes of parts that were forced to be
43:58
forced to be made throughout that you
44:00

46:02
very strongly think we have
46:04
you know said

46:14
straight it imagines that home and still play attacked
46:16
by the underdog carla mugler to do that are i
46:18
were you were is the americans are going to
46:20
be the other dogged about it may not be that on paper
46:23
