Welcome, it is Verdict with Senator Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with you as well. Senator, you had one heck of a weekend as I was carrying 100 pounds of golf equipment in Orlando, Florida for 7 hours and 15 minutes, if anyone was counting on how long that round lasted. You were at the World Cup living it up. By the way, I just want to be clear, your daughter picked a better sport watching World Cup than mine carrying a bag in the sun. Congratulations, you won on that one.
Okay, I need to ask, what the hell was 100 pounds? Is your son like playing golf with animals? Like how exactly does that work?
So this is what is in the bag. It's all the stuff. The ball is normal. That's all there, right? Then you have the push cart, but then you have like seven or eight bottles of water. plus enough to eat when you're missing a meal to keep them, like, keep eating because you're out there so long. And when you put all that together with the rain gear and the umbrellas and the ice and the food, it is literally 100 and something pounds.
I kid you not. So is there some rule in, like, kids golf that you can't have a golf cart?
You're not allowed to. At World Championships, the caddy and the player must walk the entire 18 holes.
just because there's some mean jerk in charge of the whole thing? Why exactly?
So it's very interesting. Spectators can use a cart. When you get there, it is straight up like, if you want to say you're a world champion, you're going to walk the whole thing, and there will be no one to help you. And if you want to quit, you can quit. But the strongest survive, it was a strongest survive scenario. So that's how it works. So if you're ever bored... And you want to caddy, it's a great workout, I assure you.
All right. So, Ben, I can give you the precise odds of that. That would be 0.00%. I will not be caddy. I will cheer you on. I like it. How did Bradley do?
So he came in. He played 10 and unders in the Under Armour Worlds. And so he got the invite. So we did it.
What World Cup Final experience did Ted Cruz describe with his daughter?
He's nine. So he's one of the youngest kids. He came in 43rd in the world, which was awesome for him. Wow, that's awesome.
And by the way, the difference between nine and 10 is big. I mean, like at this age, a year is massive.
It's massive. So our goal was to try to make it in the top 50 in the world because there's 109 kids that got in and he came in 43rd. So I was like, dude, you got to now next year you get to come back. You automatically will get to come back and next year you'll play the same course.
Does the top 50 get in automatically? Yeah.
Yeah. So he'll get in automatically.
That's the cutoff.
That's the cutoff. So that was the best part. So he is back. And I told him and he was disappointed. He wanted to be in the top 20. And it was these other kids. They were some of them had like two year graduating years. They have your your your.
So the other kids, the kids that want is that their drive. Do they hit the ball further?
Yeah.
Is it their short game or is their putting like like where is the differential?
