00:00So let's get to the placements next.
00:05I see a couple names here that I am also on, including another guy with some great form
00:10right now, and that's Mr. Burns.
00:12Oh, hey, you think it's hot up here?
00:14Then it's time for Sam Burns.
00:16That's right, because this guy is scintillating the way he's playing right now.
00:19And the whole key is the driver.
00:20You go back to early spring or late winter, he goes those four top tens in a row because
00:24the driver was clicking.
00:25Well, it's clicking again.
00:26He's got three top 15s in his last four starts.
00:29And that guy, how about this at the U.S. Open?
00:32He's six holes in and he's six over.
00:34He finished the week tied ninth and even par.
00:36He plays the next 66 holes, six under par.
00:39You want a guy that can go super, super deep.
00:42Sam Burns is your guy with a wedge and the putter.
00:44Now, top 20 is Tony Finau, second at Pinehurst, Tito Green only behind Rory.
00:49This guy is striking it incredibly.
00:50And his last two events, he's actually gained with the putter.
00:53I know.
00:54I know what you're going to say, but it's true.
00:56It's true.
00:57And then Christian Bezaidenhut, for sure, in a top 20 right now, a little plus 190 right
01:03there.
01:04I mean, here's another guy.
01:05He's playing really well.
01:06The approach play, the putter, he's doing all the things right.
01:09He just keeps grinding through.
01:10I don't know if he could pull off a signature win in a field like this, but for a top 20
01:14with only 71 guys here, I love that.
01:17Now, top 30s is about as high as I feel like I can go in a field that's this short.
01:21Harris English, right?
01:22All the guy does is make cuts at U.S. Opens, and then he loves coming to the Travelers.
01:26He won here in 21.
01:27He's definitely a top 30 candidate here.
01:30Saw him on the range today.
01:31The guy's dialed in.
01:32He looks super comfortable, just like typical Harris, just laid back and just striping the
01:37ball.
01:38And then the other guy is Matthew Pavone.
01:40This guy's fifth at Pinehurst, and on the DFS board, he's down at 6,800.
01:44I could get a number at plus 130 for him on a top 30.
01:48This guy, I love the way the guy hits the golf ball, and his putter was really good.
01:53So that's my placement card for you on a golf Wednesday.
01:55Yeah, I'm with you on Harry English here, especially I'm going to go a little deeper
01:59with the 10 and the 20.
02:00I feel like he's one of these guys who's so good at this course.
02:04And Keith, like you said, he hasn't had as stressful last couple weeks as some of these
02:08guys at the top of the board, and he might glide himself there.
02:12He might be in that third or fourth pairing on Sunday with a chance to cash us a nice
02:16top 10.
02:17Really quick, the head-to-heads.
02:18I love the strategy.
02:19We're going after Jordan again.
02:20Oh, yeah.
02:21Oh, yeah.
02:22Well, Sebez over JT Poston.
02:24You want to talk about a guy who's been here six times and only made the cut one time?
02:27Well, the postman does not deliver in Connecticut.
02:30And then the second one, I'm sorry, Jordan.
02:32But you know what?
02:33I'm like a wolf in a pack gamble.
02:35I go after the weak deer, right?
02:37I got to eat, man, you know?
02:39And Sam Burns can definitely take down Jordan.
02:41You know what?
02:42The approach game works at Pioneers, and then the guy can't putt.
02:45Let's just do it.
