00:00To me, this is the strongest pairing that the internationals have with Tom and Siwoo.
00:04Tom, of course, just how good he's been over the second half of the season,
00:09winning at the Scottish Open, contending at the U.S. Open.
00:11Really just seeing the Tom Kim back that we saw that had won quickly on tour three times before the
00:17age of 21.
00:18And then Siwoo Kim, he's the only guy with a winning record for this international team.
00:23And he's had his moments.
00:24I think the one that comes to your mind is the one at 16 where he's up against Xander and
00:28Pat Cantlay.
00:29I think he wants to go night-night against the U.S. team on day one.
00:33So Tom Kim and Siwoo Kim, I think Jeff Ogilvie and that whole international captains teams,
00:38you have to think that's a match they're like, this one has to go our way.
00:42I think the third match against JT and Koivin, they're thinking we've got to find a way to get some
00:47type of a point there.
00:49And then that first match, you always just think like, hey, if we can get a half point or a
00:53win against Scottie,
00:54like, man, it's like it's a count double.
00:56It's like a daily double, even though I don't care what the stats show me about Scottie.
01:01That's a good wrinkle.
01:03The daily double?
01:06You let each captain assign one match the double point match.
01:10Okay.
01:11All right.
01:11It's like a college football pick them all over again here.
01:14I love it.
01:15All right.
01:15We have a commenter.
01:16We have some dissent in the comments, Smiley.
01:17Take in a little bit of issue with your disrespect for the open championship and the open champion and the
01:25best dressed man in golf and Adam Scott.
01:27And they thought you just missed a little bit too quick here.
01:30Let me see.
01:31What's that match?
01:31Adam and Ryan Fox are playing Windham and Colin.
01:34Windham and Colin.
01:35I just like that pairing.
01:36And that was, I think Foxy's playing in his first international team competition.
01:42Is Foxy going to come out and have the nerves settle?
01:45Is he going to be right there for him every step of the way with Adam?
01:48I don't know.
01:49I think there's question marks there on how Ryan plays tomorrow.
01:52But it's a great golf course for him.
01:54He hits it plenty long enough for it to be an advantage.
01:57And Adam definitely hits it long.
01:59Played well last week at the BMW.
02:00I think form does mean a lot.
02:02So if we're going to definitely side to the internationals there, it's because Adam Scott's playing some very good golf,
02:09coming off a nice week.
02:10And that Windham and Colin are just off.
02:14So I definitely could see it going that way.
02:16It's a strong team.
02:17But I still side to the Americans there.
