2:16 | wants to play well I try to kind of keep

2:18 | him out of the mindset about the top

2:20 | five come on dog if he competes well and

2:23 | plays well this week he’s got a chance

2:24 | to move up and that’s all he wants is a

2:26 | chance so that’ll be good for

2:28 | him uh Bashan sandine and I play for

2:35 | prove yourself make a name for

2:37 | yourself not really sure on what life is

2:40 | like after college as a pro and to get

2:45 | [Music]

2:47 | me my name is ever Whiten Jr and I

2:50 | attend Howard

2:52 | University this is my last year so

2:54 | really just trying to finish strong do

2:56 | the best I can do for Howard and see

2:58 | where that takes me just good to compete

3:00 | with my teammate Greg and battle back

3:02 | and forth just coming down the stretch

3:04 | just try and play the best golf I can

3:07 | play for me right now playing in this

3:10 | event and having the apga Collegiate

3:12 | rankings is important to go to the next

3:18 | level 36 today 18

3:21 | tomorrow it’s long day we’ll play

3:25 | 18 grab lunches for them give them

3:27 | lunches and and they just keep going

3:29 | Contin

3:31 | PO is playing well at the moment he’s

3:33 | been putting in a lot of work at home

3:35 | he’s been struggling a little bit with

3:36 | his irons I think they’re finally

3:37 | starting to come around a little bit

3:39 | decent first round got to go into one

3:41 | point and then kind of hit it out of

3:43 | place got punished for that he works

3:45 | hard so this is a good opportunity for

3:46 | him to get up that top five as well

3:48 | second round is just kind of clanky a

3:50 | little bit on back

3:56 | nine wasn’t my best I didn’t kind of Let

3:59 | Me Down

4:00 | try and improve and uh see what we can

4:01 | shoot let’s go out there stick to our

4:03 | game plan go out there play golf how you

4:05 | know how to play golf and uh be patient

4:08 | that was really key thing you got to hit

4:10 | the fairways can’t get greedy on the

4:12 | greens got to be

4:14 | patient Sebastian sandon he’s chasing

4:17 | those ranking points

4:22 | too yeah yesterday was solid hit hit a

4:25 | lot of greens and of the te was good but

4:27 | it was solid so sebas did great

4:30 | he got a good start round one and round

4:32 | two he’s in a great spot to attack the

4:34 | leaderboard and a good finish for him is

4:37 | anything in the top five to get him back

4:39 | on the rankings T to him a little bit

4:41 | after the round said he felt really

4:42 | really

4:43 | good it was super super important for

4:45 | him to play well and he did

4:48 | it Greg odm is such an exciting player

4:51 | watch his tenacity

4:55 | is palpable you just hold out on two

4:58 | it’s pretty nice it’s that makes his

5:00 | fifth in his lifetime his fifth hole in

5:02 | one that’s pretty neat he attacks the

5:04 | ball he really gets after he’s fun to

5:06 | watch he’s staying pretty patient right

5:07 | now and I think that’s just golf

5:10 | maturity he’s taking what the golf

5:12 | course will give

5:16 | [Music]

5:27 | you it’s perfect day out again scor

5:29 | conditions are

5:31 | good we’re just trying to keep it pretty

5:34 | simple today but also be a little bit

5:36 | more aggressive as well I think to me

5:37 | the most important part of going into

5:39 | tomor you have to commit to your sight

5:40 | line kind of tells them where their

5:42 | game’s at where they can also improve at

5:44 | as well we’re just trying to clean up

5:46 | some flaws that were made yesterday and

5:48 | just play better

5:50 | today if you commit to your reads I

5:52 | think you’ll be okay same game plan

5:54 | justly and more f ball that would be

5:57 | Brant being able to play against a great

5:59 | great typ of competition like this kind

6:00 | of gives them motivation to get to that

6:03 | level you don’t need to force anything

6:39 | hit the greens and try to make some

6:41 | foots a great finish for Greg is
