Recapping Max Greyserman's Meltdown at the Wyndham Championship
Transcript
00:00That was the story of the day, which was a four shot lead with Max Grazeman.
00:06Well, Ian, let's get right into that because it looked like he, he hold out, was that 13
00:12or 14 for, for Eagle to get 21 under 13.
00:17And at that point you're thinking four shot lead, I think where I still 17 at that point
00:21and you're thinking this thing's done.
00:22And I was, you know, flying here to Memphis.
00:24So I was like trying to catch up and get like the, the weird thing on the plane where you're
00:28not going to pay for the internet, but you get the, I messaged, so I'm getting updates
00:31from you and Jack's.
00:32So you're like, this thing's getting crazy.
00:34Like how you had a four shot lead.
00:37And so, you know, when Kutcher talked a little bit about that, where does he, does he fore
00:41putt, you know, if it's, if it's lighter outside, I don't know.
00:46I mean, it's, it's easy to play Monday morning quarterback on that now, but we do know is
00:50this is that, and this is, you know, twice now where he's handled the feet exceptionally
00:55well.
00:56You know, clearly he's got the game to win on tour, you know?
00:59And so I think that, you know, however it shakes out, he made it here this week.
01:03He's in this field.
01:04Yes.
01:05He's got an opportunity to make some noise in the FedExCup playoffs and get himself into
01:08signature events next year.
01:09Yes.
01:10Max Graysman.
01:11I thought he handled yesterday with tremendous class.
01:14You know, it was not easy to, to be in the arena like that and, and handle the adversity.
01:21He could have easily shown a bunch of emotion there's, you know, he didn't have to do the
01:26interview after the round with Amanda Ballionis.
01:28He could have said, you know what?
01:29I'm good.
01:30I'm out of here.
01:31And he had every right to say, you know what, I don't want to talk to the media after something
01:36that maybe as a former player, you can consider to be, you know, embarrassing that you didn't
01:42get the job done.
01:43You know, I thought he held his head high, you know, tremendously to where he was very
01:49poised in his conversation.
01:51I think he acknowledged the mistake that he made, which was on the 14th hole, you know,
01:56bad drives happen.
01:57And we, we don't like cart paths on golf courses because new for somebody who tends to be a
02:02little off with the driver, that cart path has a magnet for my golf balls.
02:06Yes.
02:07His ball, it's the cart path goes OB at 14.
02:09So that happens, right?
02:10Like he, he makes one poor swing, but where he compounded his errors was he hits it in
02:16the left rough necks and there's a cross bunker on the 14th hole.
02:19So if you did watch it, bear with me, but if you didn't, he had an opportunity to either
02:25take on this cross bunker and push it up short of the green to where he had an opportunity
02:30to get up and down and make a six.
02:32But instead he tried to challenge it because he didn't want to make a bigger number.
02:37The rough was just sinking to the bottom, hits it into this bunker and unfortunately
02:43ends up chunking it out, chipping up, not getting up and down and making an eight.
02:47He acknowledged his mistake.
02:49I should have wedged it short of the bunker, had a good opportunity to get up and down.
02:53And they just hold out on the previous hole with the wedge and making an Eagle.
02:57So who's to say you wouldn't get up and down for a double bogey.
