| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Clubhouse with Shane Bacon. I am your host, Shane Bacon, and yes, we've made it. It's U.S. Open Week. We at Fox are obviously pumped up about it. |
| 0:16.2 | I had a chance to go to Pebble Beach a few weeks ago. The golf course is in immaculate shape, |
| 0:21.6 | and we were just hoping that the conditions would stay the same over the few weeks we waited |
| 0:26.5 | to get here. And they have. And let me just tell you, this is going to be one of the most |
| 0:32.3 | beautiful golf events you've ever watched on television. I'm not just saying that because I'm |
| 0:35.8 | going to be a part of it. It's the golf course is in great shape. The weather looks like it's going to be pretty solid. |
| 0:41.6 | And we are fired up. Brad Faxson, who I sit alongside all week long for Fox and the FS1 broadcast. |
| 0:48.9 | Join me this week to just chat a little bit about the event past U.S. opens that he played in. |
| 0:55.5 | Kepka, Tiger. He tells an unbelievable Jack Nicholas and Fred Cupple's story. So stay till the end, because you're really, |
| 1:00.2 | really going to enjoy it. And before we get to Mr. Faxson, I just wanted to let you know about the |
| 1:05.1 | all-new ProV-1 and ProV1X from Titleist. It's been redesigned for more speed, more precision, and more consistency than ever |
| 1:12.6 | before. That's really good if you're a golfer. More speed, more precision, more consistency. All three |
| 1:18.4 | of those things you will appreciate. If you compare the two models, the ProV1 has a softer feel, |
| 1:23.4 | a lower flight than the ProV1X. The ProV1X, the ball that I play, has a higher flight with more |
| 1:28.3 | spin and a firmer feel. Both models continue to provide proven drop and stop green side control, |
| 1:34.1 | lasting durability, and unsurpassed quality. And this year, for the first time, they are both |
| 1:39.3 | available in yellow. I've played yellow ProV1X in my local U.S. Open qualifier, in my sectional U.S. |
| 1:46.1 | open qualifier. I was one of the few in the field that were rocking the yellow ProV1X. |
| 1:50.7 | I played them with pride. I loved them. They had bacon stamped on the side. |
| 1:55.4 | Make sure you check out the new ProV1 and ProV1X. Prove how good you can be. T up the new |
| 2:00.7 | ProV1 or ProV1X on Prove how good you can be. T up the new ProV1 or ProV1X on your next |
| 2:02.8 | round. You will not regret it. This podcast ran a little long, so I just want to get right to |
