00:00Obviously, Scotty Sheffler was the biggest champion of all of 2024 and he's not going
00:05to be there.
00:06We told you last week that he had to have surgery, cut his hand, the wine glass.
00:10Give me an update, Keith, kind of just, I know we'll try to do the main guys, but Scotty,
00:15how long, why is Rory not here this week either?
00:20Do we know what's up with Jordan?
00:22How long he's still going to be away?
00:24Give me some updates on some of the guys that were hurt and Ludwig had the surgery.
00:28He played RSM.
00:29Is he good to go?
00:30Hovland's had some issues.
00:31What's the deal with our biggest guys as we start this week?
00:34Boy, I tell you, you just opened up Pandora's box right there.
00:39We'll start at number one with Scotty.
00:42Scotty got hurt during Christmas supper.
00:44I guess he had a little dance with a wine glass.
00:47As I mentioned to you guys off air, I've never cut my hand on a Coors Light can.
00:51So like, you know, if you go be bougie, then you know what, you might have a cut in your
00:55hand.
00:56Your world's number one.
00:57I don't know what to say.
00:59You know, that's like, to me, it's like tiger driving.
01:01Like why?
01:02Why are you ever putting yourself in a position, you know, to put yourself at risk with injury
01:07and who knows what happened?
01:09You know, Scotty's a pretty tame guy, but it's sad to see him not be here.
01:13They're talking about the Amex in three weeks when the PGA tour comes back to the mainland
01:17and they're out there in the Palm Desert.
01:19I don't know why he would rush for that.
01:21I think most likely we're going to see him at the AT&T when I'm out there at Pebble
01:24Beach the last weekend in January.
01:28Amex seems like a little bit of a rush.
01:30A little bit of news, a little bit of chatter around the one and only Victor Hovland this
01:34week.
01:35A couple of years ago, this guy won the FedEx Cup.
01:38Last year, it was a, you know, a carousel of coaches.
01:44There was a lot going on.
01:45He went back to the coach that helped him win the FedEx Cup.
01:47Of course, there's news this week that they have now split ways again.
01:51He also lost a battle, according to his Instagram account, with a bedpost.
01:56It looks like he has broken his pinky toe on his right foot.
01:59That can't be comfortable.
02:00So Victor's got a little bit of question marks starting around the start of the beginning
02:03of the year with maybe some injuries.
02:06Jordan Spieth, as you know, and I know we talked about it in the fall.
02:09He had wrist surgery finally.
02:11So he's been rehabbing all fall now because of his season last year.
02:15He doesn't have any of the signature designation.
02:17So we won't see Jordan for a little while.
02:20He's going to have to play in some of these January events to get inside that Aon Top
02:235 in order to be able to play Pebble as an AT&T sponsor or probably a sponsor's exemption.
02:29So I'm sure we'll see him there.
02:32A couple other guys, you know, we didn't have any major defections to live, you know, with
02:37all the rumors around Tony Finau.
02:39But he does have a bad knee.
02:41You know, he withdrew from not only the Hero World Challenge, but also the Grand Thornton,
02:45which was the mixed team event.
02:47He was expected to play in both.
02:49So there are a couple guys near the top of the betting board that have some question
02:53marks and, you know, we do still have a heavy favorite in Xander this week.
02:58If they can find sponsors exemptions for Webb Simpson, they can find them for Jordan Spieth.
03:03When we get, I mean, that's just, I'll just, I'll leave that one at that.
03:07When he's ready to play, Keith, they'll find a way to get Jordan Spieth into the biggest
03:12events.
