Transcript
This is crazy. I don't even like Welcome back to day eight of trying to hitchhike onto every private golf course in the state of Utah. Today, we are at Ogden Country Club. Oh, this doesn't get easier. My stomach hurts because I'm nervous. Oh, there's cameras right there that just saw me. This beautiful country club hosted a Korn Ferry event just a couple months ago, and I also have a lot of history here. I played in the State AM a couple years ago at this golf course. Good some friends out here. I took the champ to 22 holes in the first round. I probably would have lost anyways, but he did end up winning. Oh good. I'm introing right now. What up? You've been waiting for me? You've been waiting for me? I literally just got here. I do. Are you playing? Yeah. Do you need a fourth? 04:00. Yeah. I'm only at two. You only actually? Yeah. Two. I got here two minutes ago. Did you really? What's your name? Taylor. Taylor? Nice to meet you. Man. Cal.
