00:00The Creator Classic was the most nervous I've ever been.
00:04You know, I stood up there, it was like 2,000 people waiting on the first tee.
00:07I don't know how many.
00:07And it's not an easy tee shot.
00:09No, it's not.
00:10It's actually a nightmare.
00:12Yeah, and I'm freaking out.
00:13And I'm like, and I'm over that ball about to like drop dead.
00:17Like my heart is like, like out of my chest.
00:21And I'm like, and I'm like literally thinking about why I like stopped competitive golf.
00:25I'm like, I, this feeling like I can't feel anything right now.
00:29And I'm just like, anywhere, like just get it out there.
00:32And, and yeah, so I made contact, which was great.
00:37And somehow shot even par, like looking back at it, I always talk to Josh.
00:42And I'm like, how did we actually win that?
00:44Like, I rarely beat Georgia West.
00:46And I'm like, how did we do that?
00:49And especially making the putt on 17, like that just fired me up.
00:53Yeah, because it was like, I didn't want to just lag it up there.
00:55Like to make, it was a huge breaking putt left to right.
00:58Um, and we made it, but it, uh, that was like my most recent taste of like true competition
01:05and like getting in there.
01:07And yeah, it's, yeah, it's, it's definitely a tough one.
01:12I just don't know where I'm at right now.
01:14Do you, do you worry like when you're weighing pros and cons, are you, are you worried about
01:17like detriment to brand versus like continued exposure?
01:20Cause like, I guess I just wonder you have, you've had a pretty amazing exposure across the
01:25board to, to build the audience you have.
01:26So at this point, it feels like it's more about, uh, managing your brand type situation.
01:30Is that, is that a right way to think about it?
01:32Yeah, that's definitely a great way to, to, to put it.
01:35Um, it's not that, you know, I truly believe in my game and I think I'm not going to shoot
01:40some crazy high score.
01:42Um, like I did at Quail.
01:44Um, definitely not a teaser, um, but I'll tell you one thing.
01:52I, when you, when you play with the pros, you just realize how much better they are.
01:58And it's hard for me to play with the John Roms and the fills and all these guys and sit
02:05there and be like, I'm going to go tee it up and even just give it a go.
02:09Like they're just, they're so good at golf and it's like, yeah, I'll hit a lot of high
02:15quality golf shots.
02:16As Wesley would say, he always like tries to hype me up and be like, you hit just as many
02:21high quality shots, but it's, it's truly a whole nother level.
02:25And it is, it's just hard for me like to even put myself, cause I didn't expect it.
02:31Um, obviously the invite.
02:33So I'm definitely, yeah, I got to process it.
02:36It's like watching this guy play.
02:37But yeah, Charlie, I've seen him hit some pretty dang good.
02:39Yeah.
02:39Help me, help me out here, Charlie.
02:41So, so Grant, as we all know, with the matches with the PGA tour pros gives guys five shots.
02:46Let's say we played straight up.
02:48What are you setting the odds?
02:50You two playing straight up and I'm odds making.
02:53Wait, where's your game at right now?
02:54I've played twice this year and I can't remember where the first time even was.
02:58So, uh, I do, I did play players week cause I saw you in the same day.
03:02Yes, I did.
03:03Yeah.
03:03I played great that day, but I don't remember the other time I played this year.
03:06Did you, you played the ocean course the same course that I was at?
03:09Yeah.
03:09All right.
03:10All right.
03:10Okay.
03:10We did half shots, which is kind of fun at Tobacco Road.
03:13I'm trying to think what I would set you all at for odds.
03:15Set the odds here.
03:16I mean, I think if you have.
03:18Maybe I start at even, he starts five under.
03:20Is that where?
03:23Well, I mean, it wouldn't, I would take it.
03:26I think you probably should, you know, out of deference to your PGA tour winner status
03:31and having played in the final group of the masters, you probably got to cut Grant like
03:34two aside.
03:35Is that right?
03:36Like three or three total?
03:37Is that disrespectful?
03:38I mean, I don't know.
03:39I bet Smiley would go out there and play great.
03:40Like he hasn't played much golf.
03:42I feel like you probably have no expectations going into it.
03:45You might go out there and sneaky play great, but I, I would 100% tell you what, I don't
03:48know, man.
03:49When you get on these big channels now, it brings back the old memories of a little scar tissue
03:57in there, Grant.
03:59He, he is funny.
04:00I got to say it's harder now than it used to be and all the five under challenges.
04:06I actually was telling JT this on the first haul.
04:09Everybody has got off to a rocky start.
04:11And it's not like, I don't think, no, I would never say that because these guys are all
04:17like, they're, they're used to this.
04:19I just think it's totally different.
04:21I think I told Tony, I asked Tony Fina, like on the second haul, I was like, were you nervous?
04:25He was like, oh yeah.
04:26Like I was, cause he said his kids watch.
04:28Oh yeah.
04:29And it's like, I think he wanted to be the cool dad.
04:32Like he, I think he did it just to be the cool dad, like to go on the channel.
04:35And these guys don't want to lose either.
04:37Right.
04:37No.
04:37Yeah.
04:38Tony, like he doesn't want to lose, but like every single.
04:42Match.
04:42Like even Adam, Adam was like three over through five.
04:46Yeah.
04:46Like I'm just watching these guys and I'm like, what's, cause they're also trying to
04:50talk to the camera.
04:51So there is a big adjustment when you're trying to talk to the camera and explain your shot
04:55and then go hit it.
04:56Um, but yeah, it is like JT played great.
04:59He was like, he kind of beat the, I mean, he actually was pretty close.
05:03Now that I think of it, he kind of, he was playing, he was like two under or something
05:07through three, he was, he was moving.
05:09And then I think he kind of like, yeah, no one's like killed it.
05:13Yeah.
05:13Like no one's like shot a more cow.
05:15Yeah.
05:16I forgot about that.
05:17I forgot about that.
