00:08competition round and forever. Tyrrell Hatton is actually one of my favorite people. The
00:14super sarcastic, super dead inside. When I'm really relaxed, like country's going. So,
00:23super relaxing, nothing too much in my ears. Nine quick questions. Easy. A bit of fun.
00:35Some more serious, some more fun. Perfect. Number one, dream four ball. Dream four ball.
00:41Tiger. Yeah. Kobe Bryant. Yeah. Nice. And probably Arnold Palmer. Nice. Why not? Kobe
00:51Bryant. Yeah. Okay. Second, favorite golf course. In the entire world. In the entire
00:57world. I had to play every single day. Probably like Kapalua. I get ocean views. I don't care
01:01how tough or easy the golf course is. I want beautiful views. I want good weather. Hawaii.
01:07Best golf shot you've ever hit. 16 at Harding Park. PGA Championship. Yeah, that was a given.
01:13Okay. Flipping it up. Worst golf shot you've ever hit. Yeah, that's pretty easy. Zozo's
01:18Championship 2021. There weren't many fans. A shanked one. It was my first shank that I
01:24could remember in a competition round and forever. Best tip you've ever been given or
01:30best bit of advice. This could be golf. Yeah. You know, JT gave me some really good advice
01:34before my first PGA Tour tournament. He talked about just kind of, you know, just staying on
01:40your own path and just really believing in what you do and could be straight vertical and get
01:44there quicker, get to the tour quicker. But if you really love what you're doing and you're,
01:47you know, you believe in yourself, you'll get there at some point. So that was really big when
01:51I was first turning pro, obviously, with a lot of young guys, a lot of young talent,
01:54and just kind of digging that belief out of me and just trying to go out and earn it.
02:00Who is the funniest person on tour? Funniest person? That's a tough one. There's, I mean,
02:05yeah, there, I mean, there's some like dark humor. There's some like, there's some funny
02:09humor. Actually Tyrrell Hatton is actually one of my favorite people. The super sarcastic,
02:15yeah, super dead inside. He's going to love, he's going to love to hear that. But you know what?
02:20He's actually one of my favorite people to play golf with. Cause he's never, it's never about us.
02:24He always makes it about himself in a good way when he's making fun of himself. So it's always,
02:29it's always fun. It's entertaining. A bit of self-deprecating. Yeah. Yes. Okay. We're playing
02:35golf at Capilouto, by the sound of it. You're in a car, Bluetooth speakers on. Yeah. What tune
02:40It depends on the mood. Okay. Give me a few moods. Probably some country. Nice. Yeah. When I was,
02:45when I'm really relaxed, like country's going. So super relaxing. Like nothing too much in my ears.
02:54Nice little beat. Strangest thing in your golf bag.
02:59I don't have anything weird. No, nothing. I keep it clean. Nothing. Nothing. Normal,
03:04normal golf bag. And last but not least in the quick mind, how do we get more people,
03:10even more people playing golf in your opinion? I think the biggest thing to get more people is
03:14just to show them that it, you know, it doesn't have to be 10 hours long. It doesn't have to be
03:18a long day. It doesn't have to, you don't have to wear pants and a button up and a nice collared
03:23shirt. Like some of the best times I've had, and I've been fortunate to go to a lot of places and
03:27just being in a t-shirt and shorts and your sneakers and having a good time with some friends.
03:32And I think that's the biggest thing is just making it more accessible to everyone. I think
03:36that's what Adidas has been able to do is kind of merge that and see their innovation and see their
03:41forwardness on just blending golf, but also blending, you know, street wear and things
03:46that like kids can go to school with. That's the biggest thing is, is how do you just kind
03:50of blend those two up together?
