00:00Let's get to the placements now.
00:04We've got a couple of the same faces, but I also see we got Cooch in there for you as
00:10well.
00:11All right.
00:12At the top of the list, you know, top 10 there, JJ Spahn.
00:15He's a Los Angeles native, and you're going to see this throughout my card.
00:18The guys that grew up out there, out west, that are used to putting on POA are great
00:23there all of the time.
00:24He's got a top 10 at Farmers.
00:26You know, he's finished 16th once in his career at Pebble.
00:28I mean, all those places out there, Barracuda, too, he's got another top 10.
00:32I love him to finish top 10, if not win this thing this week.
00:36Top 20s, Mack Meisner, mentioned him already.
00:39And you just talked about him, the human ATM, Mack Kuchar, right?
00:42He was great at the 3M.
00:43He was good, of course, at Wyndham in an extra day.
00:47Now he's coming over to a place where two years ago he finished 12th.
00:51Last year he finished 7th.
00:52This place is the perfect fit for him.
00:54He's an unbelievable wedge player, and when he's putting good like he is right now, Kuchar
00:57is definitely someone who's going to contend this weekend.
01:00Top 40s, I'm going up to Canada, Ben Silverman, plus 110.
01:04Maybe I'm inspired by going to Montreal in a couple weeks.
01:06I don't know.
01:07But this guy, he's the second best putter in the field there out in Napa.
01:12And then the other guy, Henrik Norlander, OK?
01:14I know you're going, Keith, where do you come up with these guys for top 40?
01:17Plus 130.
01:18Hey, you've been watching the DP World Tour because I have.
01:21Last week at the Omega Masters, he finished 8th, OK?
01:25He was good at the Barracuda.
01:26Henrik Norlander is a really good ball striker.
01:29Hey, back at the Farmers in 2021, he finished runner up.
01:32The guy can putt power.
01:33That's my placement card.
01:36Head to heads now, Keith, of course, we don't have Jordan Spieth anymore to pick on and
01:40head to heads.
01:41He's hopefully recovering nicely, getting his wrist surgery.
01:44But we have somebody new to pick on and head to heads.
01:47Yeah, we've got two guys in particular.
01:49I'll start with the easy one first.
01:51I'm going to go with Max Homa.
01:52The poor guy over his last five starts, he's losing over five strokes to the field.
01:57You know, we talked about JJ Spahn gaining seven strokes.
02:00He's 12th to the better, right, over a guy like Homa.
02:03Homa against McNeely, McNeely up there, the Stanford Cardinal, he's definitely somebody
02:08I love in that matchup.
02:09And the second one, Kuchar, he's an ATM over Doug Gim.
02:13Doug Gim has lost strokes with the putter in 11 of his last 12 starts.
02:17He averages losing two strokes a tournament with the flat stick.
