00:00We go to Mexico this week before we hit the Florida swing.
00:04Now this is one of these weeks, you don't have the big names going down there.
00:10But you have a lot of guys, Smiley, who have been playing some pretty good golf.
00:14And I think there's some opportunities here.
00:16It hurts to lose Mav.
00:17And Mav, could you not take the driver out on 17?
00:20You didn't need to take the driver out on 17.
00:23He withdrew this morning, he was supposed to play, but second place money, he said.
00:27Akshay has been playing good.
00:29Patrick Rodgers was in the mix this weekend.
00:31Michael Kim's been playing well.
00:33We have some guys here in Mexico, Smiley, playing good golf.
00:36Anyone you got your eyes on?
00:37Well, I think you just said a couple of them.
00:40I think Michael Kim's a great, great play.
00:42Evidante, he's been in the final group here before.
00:45I was actually walking with him two years ago.
00:47He was paired with Jon Rahm, and then he just, Jon Rahm and Tony Fienale took off that year.
00:52Jake Knapp, he's kind of started to pick up some form.
00:55He's a defending champion.
00:57Akshay Patia, this golf course in particular, being around it a couple of times, it's very,
01:01very long.
01:02You have a lot of middle to long irons, so that would be, if you're going to look at
01:06a metric, it's going to be about guys, accuracy's not an issue off the tee.
01:11It's a big ballpark.
01:13You want guys who can hit it long, but also really good middle to long iron players.
01:18There's only a couple of crucial drives that you got to be able to hit, but if you're able
01:21to keep those in play, it's a golf course about how good are you with proximity, kind
01:26of in that, I would say 150 to 225 would probably be the area where you're going to have a lot
01:32of shots.
01:33You know, you're right.
01:34Defending champ Jake Knapp going off at 40 to 1 right now.
01:37He's been playing some good golf the last few weeks.
