00:00And we are back for Elk Coast to Coast on a Wednesday, a golf Wednesday, on C2C.
00:09And of course, every week, Cam Stewart, the Prime Minister, is with me to get ready for
00:14this week's PGA TOUR event, which of course, is the final one of the regular season, the
00:20Wyndham Championship in Charlotte, North Carolina, which unfortunately is going to get a lot
00:27of rain over the next couple of days, which is going to definitely wreak havoc with us,
00:31Cam. It is great to see you, as always.
00:34Well, you could do 30 seconds on this, man.
00:37What a yak job by Rahm in Paris on Sunday.
00:40I cannot believe he did not.
00:42Not only did he win the gold.
00:43Now, I needed him to win the gold, just like you.
00:45He couldn't even meddle at all.
00:47He fell completely off the podium, which was absolutely sickening.
00:50And Sheffler gets us again.
00:52It's unbelievable, Carver, how we still kind of make money and what could have been, right?
00:56And even Fleetwood, I took him live.
00:57I'm like, maybe he's going to break through.
00:59He's won at this course. You should see my girlfriend.
01:01She's angrier than me, because every time I'm going to win a big bet, she gets a good
01:04dinner. She gets surf and turf.
01:05Then I'm sitting there at the end going, thanks, Sheffler.
01:08You took another meal away from me again.
01:09I guess it's ramen noodles again, friend.
01:11So sick and tired of these guys not stepping up to him.
01:14It's like this is the whole thing.
01:15He doesn't quietly, Carver.
01:16It's not like a burglar with a mask on and a weapon.
01:18He's just he's in your house.
01:19He's waiting for you.
01:21It's unbelievable.
01:22Like, I don't know why these guys don't have the stones to close.
01:25Against this guy, it's not like he's intimidating like Tiger Woods.
01:29Anyway, good on Sheffler.
01:30You're the best, buddy. You're the best.
01:32And he continues to have just an unbelievable year, this Sheffler.
01:38All right, let's get to the Wyndham here.
01:40Yeah, I can. We have a lot to discuss.
01:43First of all, as I mentioned, weather is going to be a major factor here this week.
01:48You have that hurricane that's in Florida.
01:49It's going to come up the coast over the next couple of days.
01:52I'm hoping, Cam, they've got some plans as to what their course of action is going to be,
01:58because, look, this isn't a tournament I think they could stretch into Monday
02:02with the FedEx Cup playoff and having to get that list closed down.
02:07I could see this not being a full four rounds coming up this week,
02:11which would be a very dicey situation.
02:14Sanjay Yim is the favorite.
02:15He is 14 to 1.
02:17You've got Billy Horschel here.
02:18First time we're seeing him, remember, since the Open Championship after he bagged out in Minnesota.
02:23Lowry, Kim, Harman, Young, Aaron Rye, Beseidenhout among the chalk for this week.
02:29I'll tell you this right out of the gate, Cam, if you give me your thoughts on the chalk.
02:33I am avoiding anyone who played in Paris last week.
02:37I don't care how they did, what they did.
02:40Anybody who played in Paris is off my card.
02:43I don't want them.
02:44It's a good way to look at it.
02:45And you're also going to need somebody who's kind of calm,
02:46because you're right about the rain delays.
02:48And it's up to the PGA Tour to use their head.
02:50Sometimes we don't even get those first round leader bets in.
02:52Hey, guys, let's start them a little bit early in threesomes and get this thing going,
02:55because we know we're going to have weather.
02:56So plan ahead, and maybe we'll get through this thing, Carver.
02:59But would you like me to start, Carver?
03:01Or would you like to start?
03:02Well, it's a pleasure to have you back, buddy.
03:03I missed you.
03:04So why don't you start things off?
03:05You actually had the original bet with Rahman.
03:08You're probably even angrier than me, even though I show it.
03:10Fire away, Carver.
03:11I think I did send you.
03:13I, of course, backed myself up with a small Scheffler 11-to-1
03:17with a homer on Friday night to make sure I had something for him.
03:20I didn't think I would need it.
03:21Here we go for the Wyndham.
03:22Cameron Young at 28-to-1.
03:24That's where I'm going to start.
03:26I like the way he's played, Cam, over the last month, month and a half.
03:30It's the kind of field where maybe he can finally break through.
03:34Batya, I don't like...
03:35I'm actually surprised that Batya isn't higher on the board, Cam, to be quite honest with you.
03:39I agree.
03:41I thought he'd be in the 20s.
03:42Getting him at 35-to-1, I think it's a value play.
03:45Maverick McNeely also has been close, 55-to-1 for him.
03:49I like Eric Cole on this course a lot, 60-to-1.
03:52You got a better number than me.
03:53And Adam Hadwin, again, the number doesn't feel right, Cam.
03:5890-to-1 for Adam Hadwin this week.
04:01Could be in the 50s or 60s normally.
04:03I know he hasn't played great, but I'll take a shot there.
04:06I mean, Willie Z's in the 90s as well this week.
04:08So I'm going to go with Hadwin on a course like this.
04:11It's crazy, actually.
04:11My buddy was playing golf with Hadwin, and he's pissed off at the way he's been playing.
04:14He's very angry heading into this tournament.
04:16So he told my buddy he expects good things this week.
04:19Harmon, 32-to-1.
04:20I'm going to start there.
04:21The little left.
04:21You talk about a short course.
04:23That's Brian Harmon, his wheelhouse.
04:24Davis Thompson is very underrated, Carver.
04:26I thought he might be on your list because we think the same.
04:28But I think at 35-to-1, he's a great price.
04:31Aaron Ryan, Ginger, 40.
04:32I got Eric Cole early.
04:34I pulled a Mike Carver right after France.
04:36I look at the order.
04:36Oh, there's Cole at 70.
04:38I've been waiting for this kind of win.
04:39If you win, win for me and Carver this week.
04:42Please, Gambler.
04:43Help us out.
04:44We've been defending you, Eric Cole, since the beginning of time.
04:47Putnam, love this guy at 90-to-1.
04:49He hits it straight at Novak.
04:51Novak Djokovic won gold.
04:52How about Andrew Novak at 100-to-1?
04:54Bring me home something, friend.
04:57I like it.
04:57You know what, Cam?
04:58I'll get in on Thompson as well with you.
05:00You'll show me the way for that one.
05:01But Cole would be absolutely outstanding.
05:03Here's my placements for me.
05:05Son J.M., I don't want to take him as the chalk, per se, Cam, but I feel like he's
05:10going to be involved this week.
05:11I'll play him for a top five at plus 330.
05:14Aaron Rye for top 10 at plus 320.
05:16He's played great golf.
05:18Look, Spieth has been a mess.
05:20He's been awful, but I think something we have to factor in this week, Cam, is any
05:24of those guys in 60-to-70 or 70-to-80 in that FedEx Cup standings, they need to
05:31play well this week.
05:32So Spieth for a T-10, I'll go.
05:34Dangerous Denny McCarthy's one of those guys, too, at a top 20.
05:37And Adam Svensson, a top 20 at plus 280.
05:40Love it, Carver.
05:41And I think Spieth, I read an article.
05:42He's getting angry and he's going to deliver soon.
05:44I'm with you on him for a top 10.
05:46We're getting almost plus 150.
05:47How do you not do it right there?
05:48Siwoo Kim, a lot of people like him.
05:50I'll take him for a top 20.
05:51Not going to screw around.
05:51Plus 125.
05:52Bazoutenhout, the Bazoutenhout Adventure, top 20, plus 170.
05:55Great price.
05:56Batia, I already talked about.
05:58This guy looks very dangerous.
05:59Plus 175.
06:00Mac Meisner, I know Brady likes him as well.
06:03Top 40, plus 150.
06:04And Moops, old man Moops.
06:05Watch out for the old guys this week.
06:07Kuchar and Moore could do well.
06:08I pick Moops, plus 210 for a T-40.
06:11I like it.
06:11How about the Mac?
06:12Uh, first round leaders for me.
06:14Aaron Rye, 60 to one.
06:15Eric Cole, 75 to one.
06:17Johnny Vegas, first round.
06:18Go back to being a first round legend, 85 to one.
06:21Ben Griffin at 90.
06:22The Todd father at a hundred to one.
06:25Enrico Hoey's been playing good golf at 120 to one.
06:29Love Hoey.
06:30He's my guy, Carver.
06:31He's almost won a few times.
06:32Batia comes out of the gate hot too.
06:34So I'm all in on this guy.
06:36Cameron Davis, another notorious hot starter, 55.
06:38I'm taking Carver's, I'm reading his mail with Keegan Bradley.
06:42He loves Keegan Bradley at 66 to one.
06:44Cole, wire to wire, buddy at 70.
06:46Novak is a great Thursday player as well.
06:48And Matthew Neesmith, one of Carver's old buddies from high school, 125 to one.
06:53Friend of the program.
06:54Great price.
06:55We love it.
06:56Cam, guys, just on the outsider.
06:58Need to play well to get in that top 70.
07:00Victor Perez, Davis Riley, Andrew Putnam, Kenny Yama, Luke List, Lucas Glover,
07:03who won here last year.
07:05Those guys need big weeks to get themselves into that top 70
07:09and be playing next week at the St. Jude.
07:11Cam, let's get back to the window and keep the rain away.
