00:00All right, Keith, let's go through a few of these guys towards the top.
00:02First, I've seen Rahm.
00:04He looks like he wants to take every club out of his bag,
00:07snap it over his knee,
00:09throw them all in the creek as he goes over that bridge.
00:12Rahm has had a miserable day.
00:13I think he's far over now.
00:15You know, with some of these guys, Mike,
00:17you could blame it on one skill or a bad break or something like that,
00:21but Rahm's been all over the place today.
00:23He's been a big disappointment.
00:24He has to be the biggest disappointment on the board.
00:26I know you mentioned Nick Dunlop, but, you know,
00:28nobody was betting him to win, right?
00:30Like, yeah, you know, Rahm went off at 14.
00:36So he was the third favorite to go off today
00:39when the odds board kind of closed pre-tournament.
00:41You know, and the thing is, he's got five bogeys on his card, right?
00:46And he's coming up to the two par fives, but he's already four over.
00:49He's going to shoot himself right out of the six.
00:51Right now, he's 12 shots behind.
00:54He's finished.
00:55He's got no shot.
00:56The only thing he's got to work for now is to try to backdraft his way
01:00into the weekend and try to do that.
01:02That's pretty much – and I don't think he can get his head on straight
01:05before he can even do that.
01:07What did you see from JT this morning?
01:09Because I thought that was very disappointing.
01:12Well, you know what?
01:12JT was unbelievable with the putter.
01:15So yesterday, if you and I were talking on a golf Wednesday,
01:17if I told you that JT gained two and a half strokes with his putter just in round one,
01:22you would have been like, Keith, double my bet, triple my bet, right?
01:27But the driver was all over the place.
01:28This place does have some room off the tee.
01:31JT was a little – he was a little outside those parameters.
01:34But you know what?
01:35The rest of the ball striking was okay.
01:37The chipping was a little bit off and on.
01:39But I think JT getting out of it today with a 73 for us was a home run
01:44because he's going to get back out there tomorrow.
01:47He's going to figure some things out.
01:48And we know with JT you get a roller coaster.
01:50So if that's JT's bad round, right, we know we're going to get a couple hot rounds.
01:55I think JT's still in it.
01:57Unlike Rom, who's just pretty much toast at this point,
02:00I think we could still get a good charge out of JT tomorrow
02:03and then a couple more rounds, we'll see what happens.
02:06The problem there, unfortunately, for the qualifier is that we need Rory
02:11or Scotty in order to take a step sideways,
02:14at least to sit in position for a little while in order for JT to catch up.
02:19So it's – right now, right now, I'm hitched to Xander.
02:23I need Xander.
02:24He's at plus one.
02:25I would love to see Xander make a little – get it under par.
02:28By the time he gets it in the house today, he'll be in that top 11.
02:31Remember now, minus one is still top 11, and there's, what,
02:34almost 30 guys under par.
02:35So I think that it's going to be harder tomorrow.
02:38Xander will play in the morning when it's soft.
02:40He could do Xander things.
02:4228 guys right now in red on the – right now, at this moment,
02:46as me and you are speaking.
