00:00how about nelly corda i i just when she hit that first button bones is great to call on the
00:05broadcast
00:05like i i know it was a different hole location than the genesis invitational but i was just
00:10thinking about us talking to jacob bridgman about did he bring it up did he bring up the putt
00:14the jake he said they asked him you know about is this a sort of a done deal to put
00:19once she
00:19hit the green he said it's anything but because it's it's an uphill putt that requires a lot of
00:24pace and it's tough to get the right pace on it and so i was just thinking back to our
00:27conversation
00:27with jacob about his putt leaving it short having a knee knocker to win his first pga tour event
00:32and nelly's was i think it was uh the broadcast says maybe two feet 11 inches like roughly three
00:37feet uh and golly that thing just grabs the side rolls in for her to win by a shot but
00:43grabs the side like it felt like it defied gravity like when it took off and i said oh my
00:49gosh she
00:49missed it like this is uh because i think one of the worst wherever there was two like really bad
00:54missed pots that come to mind of like women's golfers it was the girl at uh the old place that
01:02they mission hills was that the name of the place that they used to play like where they jump in
01:05the
01:05water shore yeah yeah yeah yeah i believe that's the one like uh she missed that really short point
01:11then lexi mixed one missed one like very short i believe too at that same course i was like oh
01:16no
01:16she did it she missed it and for a second there i thought like people that have a blade putter
01:23like
01:23you were put on notice there for about a half second you know if that putt misses all of a
01:28sudden
01:28like now he's going to the mallet you know like she's she is you know when you look at her
01:33results and
01:34what she's done not only this year but over the last however many years like she's dominating right
01:40and if she's got to go to the mallet gosh it'd be a wrap wait for the blade boys yeah
01:45and girls i
01:46guess girls be a wrap for all of them yeah i mean to your point on the dominating form i
01:51mean just the
01:52the rate at which she's won to finally get her first us open win uh and and i thought it
01:57was super
01:57interesting a broadcast nugget that jessica or her sister who is you know obviously uh she's taking
02:05time off for motherhood things like that but is involved in her camp and kind of you know keep an
02:09eye
02:09on her swing had her make a a strengthener grip made a grip change the week of the u.s
02:15open and
02:15nelly said on the golf channel said she's like jess was up all night long stressed out about it
02:21making this change for the week of and nelly feeling like on the range you know gripping it like i'm
02:25gonna snap hook this thing 30 yards left and it turned out to be the thing that that you got
02:30her in
02:31a better position to hit it great all week and rude to this win yes i mean she's gotta uh
02:36you know
02:37her short game obviously is what her chipping ability just kind of kept her in it the whole time
02:41uh but man she's a champion it was so fun to watch and boy oh boy like even if she
02:47would have missed
02:47that putt i would have loved to watch the playoff with charlie hole and gabby lopez like gabby was like
02:55so fun to watch she made so many big putts uh the reference to lorana ochoa and and and just
03:01you
03:01know the legend that she was when she played um and she gabby played with so much fire i just
