00:00Here's who we have this week up in Minneapolis at TPC Twin Cities.
00:08We got Tony Finau, 11-1, of course, the favorite he won here two years ago.
00:12Sam Burns is here, Akshay Bhatia, Billy Horschel, he's got to be out of gas, he's on a no-fly
00:17zone for me.
00:18Tahith Tagalas here this week, the kid Luke Clanton on the top of the board, Cam Davis,
00:25Keith Mitchell, a lot of our favorites, the postman always rings twice, is also in the
00:30mix this week for us, Cam.
00:33Look, you got a nice mix of guys there at the top.
00:37I got a feeling it's like the 30 to 70s this week, Cam.
00:41That's kind of where I'm going to be spending my focus.
00:42Couldn't agree more.
00:43And the thing is, a lot of these guys in the Open Championship, they're great players,
00:47but I don't want to take them.
00:48I want to take guys who either miss the cut, and out of the chalk, I know Tagala, I think,
00:52is a guy that you like, and I like Bhatia.
00:55Those are the two chalk guys, but I'm going a little bit up the board, too.
00:57I'm living in the 30 to 70, 80 range, right, with you, Carver.
01:00I feel you.
01:01Well, let's get right into it then, Cam, because time is short, as always.
01:05Here's who I'm going with.
01:063M Open this week in Minnesota for a chalky pick.
01:10I will take Tahith Tagala, missed the cut at the Open Championship.
01:14Coming over here, I like him the most out of any of these other guys that are at the
01:18top, as we were just saying, 22 to 1.
01:20JT Poston has a second year, he has a couple of other top 10s, he's 35 to 1.
01:24Eric Van Rooyen, birdies machine, you need a lot of birdies at this place, 40 to 1 for
01:29him.
01:30Adam Hadwin, we're about as close to Canada as we could possibly get, Cam, here on this
01:35stop on the PGA Tour, 45 to 1.
01:38And Seamus Power will be my semi-bomb of the week at 80 to 1, another guy who can make
01:44a lot of birdies, did like the way he was playing in those couple weeks before we got
01:49to the Scottish and the British.
01:51Quickly, Carver, Eric Van Rooyen, University of Minnesota, best friend passed away, University
01:55of Minnesota.
01:56There's a lot of time waiting for him.
01:58This guy, this is like a major for him, and I love the pick, I added him as well.
02:01I'm going to go with my favorite, Salmonella Sandwich, loaded with hot mayo, it's Hoagie
02:06on a summer day, 32 to 1.
02:08Don't let me down, Tom.
02:10Let's come through with a nice, clean baguette.
02:12Mack Meisner, who, who, as Carver says, watch out for the Meisner.
02:17This guy, all he does is finish top 10 and 20 now.
02:20He's hot.
02:21Eckrode, I got a frog in my throat, 60 to 1, he will love this track, just overpower
02:25it with power.
02:26Rico Hoey, one of the hottest players in the world.
02:28For my Filipino friends, who give me drinks in their garage, 66 to 1, an afternoon nap,
02:33I'm due for one, 80.
02:34And Pearson Cootie, I've been close before with the Cooties, and remember, there's two
02:38P Cooties, Pearson, not Parker, 90 to 1.
02:43I like it, Cam, getting involved indeed with the Hoagie Sandwich this week.
02:48The top 10s and 20s for me.
02:51Here's Batia.
02:52So Batia does get on my card for a T10 at plus 210.
02:55Keegan Bradley for a T10 at plus 280.
02:58Cameron Davis, three top 10s at this event.
03:02He'll win a course a couple weeks ago at the Rocket Mortgage, top 10 at plus 320 for him.
03:07Nicky Dunlap won the Jabroni tournament last weekend, the Barracuda, so he's been hot.
03:12T20 at plus 185.
03:14Kenny Hodges won this event a year ago, in a route, by the way, he won it.
03:19Top 20 at plus 220.
03:21Cameron Champ, another past champ at this event, top 20 at plus 450.
03:29I wish I was Cameron Champ.
03:30Anyway, Carver, here we go.
03:32Batia, for a top 10, I'm with you.
03:34This guy could win this tournament, plus 260.
03:36I'm going to tell you, watch out for EVR, top 20.
03:40I'm also riding Carver for the win with Eric Von Ruh and Taylor Pendrith.
03:43I like him, top 20, I like your Hadwin pick.
03:45I'm a top 40 guy now, Carver.
03:47I'm not having guys screw me on Sundays.
03:49Nova Kane, Andrew Novak, top 40, good player.
03:52He could win, plus 130.
03:54Riders on the Storm with Sam, top 40, plus 135.
03:57And Neil Shipley, very hot young player, plus 150.
