I'm Sandy along with Rich beam and we're getting back into it. We dropped the ball last week and we dropped the ball on a week that was pretty exciting in the week of golf. Scott rich is joining us from somewhere in Scotland today. I'm at my home studio in Austin, Texas, but following you on a social at Beamer PGA has been fun. It looks like you're having a great time. Scotland's a wonderful Rich Beem (02:02.546) Scotland's a great time. If you're following me Instagram, you got to see the post that I put out this morning. I was driving from Trune up to Carnoose where I am now and I pulled off and I was a little bit hungry, but I needed some gas too. So I thought, you know, I just do it all in one go swoop. It's not like the U .S. where, know, you can go into these massive truck stops and do that. You kind of kind of pick and choose. And I kind of thought that I was picking and choosing one of these, you know, bigger places. It turned out it was just a gas station and then there's little building right next to it. And I'm like, I'm to go fill up the gas and then I'm going go right there and just grab a, they call breakfast BAP, which is basically just like a bacon and bacon sandwich essentially in a hot tea and just boogie on the road. So I walk into this, this little shop and the guy from behind goes, my God, rich bean. And he's this, he's this shorter Asian gentlemen. who's got a Scottish accent, but not a heavy Scottish accent. It's kind of a little bit, I'm kind of guessing that he wasn't born in Scotland, but he starts talking about, remember Glenn, goes just up the road and he starts going on and on and on. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. And he was just, he was the neatest, nicest guy. And I'm like, this is why I love this country. I just pulled off for gas and a little breakfast sandwich. And this guy is going on and bought me breakfast this morning at his place. And then I gave him a couple dozen or I gave him a couple sleeves of golf balls that I had just in the bag. And then I did this video. So I'm like, you know what? This is why I love sky. This is why I love traveling around the world is that by happenstance, this guy recognized me from Sky Sports Golf and I was just blown away. It was the funnest morning I've had. I I needed it to after a beat down on a long week work wise. But this guy was just the neatest and nicest guy. So anybody follows me on Instagram at B repuGA, just go check it out. It's really, really funny. This guy, and I think his name, but I think Sandy (03:47.749) Yeah, Sandy (03:59.109) Tanga, something like that, Rich Beem (03:59.377) Tango, tango, tango, tango, tango, yeah, something like that. I mean, couldn't hardly understand him. He was so excitable this morning and I was just like, I'm so happy that I made your morning and you made my morning. I can promise you Sandy (04:12.763) We are going to get into Rich's picks in just a moment. We've got the 3M at TPC Twin Cities this week. And of course we've got the senior open. We're going to focus on the 3M for your picks, which are coming up in just a moment. But briefly on the open championship, boy, I took it all in. I was up two mornings at 5 a .m. watching. I just love it. It's my favorite major. I just love the early morning and the style of golf and the look and the crowd and the There's something about it that I just, love it. I love that major. Rich Beem (04:48.494) It's incredible. It literally for me too, it's probably the most fun sporting events that I attend every year. mean, most of it's all golf related anyway, Sandy, as you well know, but you know, the Masters, even being a past champion of the PGA, for me, it's just so much fun because the crowds, the atmosphere, the excitement, the energy that they have and it's early, you early Monday all the way to the end of golf on Sunday. mean, people are just coming in droves. And I was up at 5 a .m. too, just a little bit different time zone than you. But, you know, we put in some long hours and I always kind of, you know, whinge about it, complain about it little bit. But it's just like, you know what, I just got to be a part of one of the greatest championships of all time. And it's never lost on me, thankfully, you know, but it was really amazing. And what a great week. And again, the people in Scotland are just, they're amazing. If anybody has not been over this part of the world to play golf, as you've been here, Sandy, it's Sandy (05:55.949) It really is, it's hard to explain. And I'll tell you what, as Rich enjoys a pint, as we record the podcast, good for you, and watching it on television, and I did this during the US Open too, I watched you guys on Sky, on Peacock, and I loved the British commentators, especially during the open.
