WEBVTT 00:09.592 --> 00:12.178 [Dahmen] I didn't know we brushed pools, but apparently we do here. 00:13.388 --> 00:15.640 They build this awesome pool, then they're like, 00:15.724 --> 00:20.562 "Oh, by the way, you need to be sweeping your pool for… 15 minutes a day." 00:22.856 --> 00:25.358 I clearly don't go to the gym often enough. 00:26.359 --> 00:29.112 So the trainer has me on the pool workout plan. 00:29.654 --> 00:31.823 And some people actually work out in the pool. 00:31.906 --> 00:33.950 Nope. I am just the new pool boy. 00:37.704 --> 00:39.956 I'm supposed to do that two or three times a day. 00:42.292 --> 00:45.003 No chance. But someday, I won't have to do that. 00:45.503 --> 00:47.505 [upbeat music playing] 00:49.215 --> 00:50.884 [producer] Uh, so what's new? 00:51.468 --> 00:54.345 Uh, life has changed for me on the golf course. 00:55.138 --> 00:56.056 I'm more famous. 00:56.139 --> 00:57.891 [indistinct chatter] 00:58.933 --> 01:01.603 Life has changed for Joel Dahmen in a big way. 01:01.686 --> 01:04.856 [crowd chanting] Joel! Joel! Joel! Joel! Joel! Joel! 01:04.939 --> 01:06.858 [Renner] People are not just going crazy for Joel. 01:06.941 --> 01:10.403 They're yelling Geno's name.

Now you're just all… It's all over. 02:33.069 --> 02:34.779 What are we supposed to do with this? 02:34.863 --> 02:37.574 -[Dahmen] He's, like, wet. -Oh, I know. What are you doing? 02:37.657 --> 02:39.868 -[Dahmen] How did you do this? -Are you proud of yourself? 02:39.951 --> 02:43.621 [Dahmen] We had our first kid, called Riggs, this past January. 02:44.122 --> 02:45.915 He's amazing. 02:45.999 --> 02:48.501 You get used to the pee and poop rather quickly. 02:49.502 --> 02:53.173 He just kept peeing. It's amazing how much laundry you do with a kid. 02:53.256 --> 02:56.593 He just pees everywhere. I've even been hit in the face. 02:56.676 --> 03:00.388 It changes a lot. The responsibility off the golf course is a lot more. 03:00.471 --> 03:03.057 I just wanna be over there and help out as much as I can. 03:03.141 --> 03:07.645 But on the other side of that, I have to do my job to take care of my family. 03:07.729 --> 03:10.023 This is how I support my family, is by playing golf. 03:10.106 --> 03:13.234 Thankfully, I have an amazing wife in Lona who does all the hard work. 03:13.318 --> 03:15.278 We have… Why do we have so many of these? 03:15.361 --> 03:17.488 -Like, every… thing… -Gravy boats. 03:18.281 --> 03:19.490 We don't ever have gravy. 03:19.574 --> 03:21.534 "Don't play golf this week," they said. 03:21.618 --> 03:24.287 "Move into your house," they said. "It'll be great!" 03:24.370 --> 03:27.165 New house, new baby. Netflix was definitely an added layer. 03:27.248 --> 03:30.501 All of a sudden, we were like, "We have this crazy life stuff going on." 03:30.585 --> 03:35.465 And then, "You're famous overnight." Like, "Cool. What do we do?" [laughs] 03:35.548 --> 03:38.468 That's just a pretty bottle that I was going to use as a vase. 03:38.551 --> 03:40.053 -That's tequila. -[Lona] It was tequila. 03:40.136 --> 03:41.888 -But it's empty. -It's not really. 03:42.388 --> 03:43.890 [Lona] There's been times we were like, 03:43.973 --> 03:46.517 "How are we handling this? How do you manage this?" 03:47.018 --> 03:48.853 It's amazing, but it's a lot. 03:50.146 --> 03:52.857 [Dahmen] This is how a lot of our nights ended before kids. 03:54.984 --> 03:55.985 Happy new house. 03:58.279 --> 04:00.073 Oh my God. Like a champ! 04:00.156 --> 04:01.115 [chuckles] 04:01.199 --> 04:04.410 -Can I just… This is a terrible idea. -[Lona laughs] 04:07.121 --> 04:09.165 [Lona] Oh! Ah. 04:10.375 --> 04:11.250 Mmm. 04:12.001 --> 04:14.212 Oh my God, I was so much better at that than you. 04:14.712 --> 04:16.881 -That's 'cause it needs so much air. -Cheers. 04:16.965 --> 04:19.842 [Dahmen] The balance is very difficult. We're still working on the balance. 04:20.468 --> 04:22.887 Still play golf. Still have Geno as my caddie. 04:22.971 --> 04:26.516 But, um… I have a lot more people behind me now. That's for sure. 04:27.183 --> 04:28.393 [upbeat music playing] 04:28.476 --> 04:31.729 [commentator] So good to be back here, just one mile from the Atlantic Ocean. 04:31.813 --> 04:35.275 Ponte Vedra Beach, and the home of The Players Championship. 04:35.358 --> 04:37.277 [Finau] They call it the "fifth major." 04:37.860 --> 04:41.656 Best field in golf. So this would be a cool one to notch on the belt. 04:42.323 --> 04:43.825 [crowd cheers] 04:44.659 --> 04:46.035 All right. 04:46.119 --> 04:48.997 [commentator 2] The greatest duo in golf right here. Geno and Joel. 04:49.539 --> 04:55.712 I would say that I am the lowest-ranked player with the most, uh, fans. 04:55.795 --> 04:57.296 It's a weird spot to be. 04:57.380 --> 04:58.298 [man] Joel, I love you. 04:58.381 --> 05:01.259 -[man 2] Geno, will you sign mine? -[Geno] For real? 05:01.342 --> 05:05.430 I hate to say that I may be one of the most popular caddies, 05:05.513 --> 05:08.599 'cause I just don't like the way that feels to say. 05:10.018 --> 05:11.102 But it might be true? 05:11.602 --> 05:12.979 [Dahmen] You're so famous, Geno. 05:13.062 --> 05:14.439 [Geno] So famous. 05:15.440 --> 05:18.693 First on the tee, Joel Dahmen. 05:18.776 --> 05:20.778 [cheering and applause] 05:21.654 --> 05:24.657 [crowd chanting] Joel!

People's champion. -[woman] You're my favorite, Joel! 05:29.579 --> 05:32.290 [Dahmen] Absolute specimen, Joel Dahmen. 05:32.373 --> 05:33.583 [laughing] 05:33.666 --> 05:34.751 I love it. 05:37.003 --> 05:40.923 If there were five babies crying, could you pick out your kid's cry? 05:41.007 --> 05:43.134 That's a good question. I think so. 05:46.637 --> 05:48.973 How about you? I mean, are you in tune? 05:49.474 --> 05:50.308 No. 05:54.020 --> 05:55.772 Yeah. That's so bad. 05:56.272 --> 05:57.940 -[Dahmen] Go.

Please let us make a birdie. 06:12.830 --> 06:13.664 [crowd] Aw! 06:13.748 --> 06:16.918 [Renner] When you look at a lot of the top players in the world, 06:17.001 --> 06:19.837 they kind of had a slow build into this life of fame. 06:20.546 --> 06:21.923 Joel never had that. 06:22.006 --> 06:25.551 It happened overnight, and I think it was jarring. 06:27.595 --> 06:29.639 -[Lona] Hi, Geno. -Fuck. 06:29.722 --> 06:30.556 Fuck. 06:31.390 --> 06:34.143 -Hey, honey.

Uh… 07:21.524 --> 07:25.486 I am definitely resistant to a sports psychologist. 07:26.154 --> 07:28.156 [producer]Have you spoken to other tour players, 07:28.239 --> 07:30.700 uh, who do use sports psychologists? 07:31.200 --> 07:33.536 Yeah, I've talked to plenty of them.

Good shot. 07:51.012 --> 07:55.016 I'm just excited to, like, sit down and have one of our longer conversations. 07:55.099 --> 07:55.933 [man] Yeah. 07:56.017 --> 08:00.021 My name is Wyndham Clark, and I play professional golf on the PGA TOUR. 08:01.564 --> 08:02.648 [man 2] Attaboy. Good job. 08:03.483 --> 08:05.693 [Clark] When I first got out on the PGA TOUR, 08:05.776 --> 08:08.863 I really thought I was going to have tons of success. 08:09.363 --> 08:10.907 That wasn't in the cards. 08:11.866 --> 08:13.868 [commentator] For birdie now, Wyndham Clark here. 08:14.535 --> 08:15.369 [crowd] Oh! 08:15.453 --> 08:18.122 [Clark] I was kind of one of the top guys coming out of college, 08:18.206 --> 08:21.209 Pac-12 Player of the Year, and, you know, my mind was like, 08:21.292 --> 08:24.545 "All right, we're just going to do the same thing in professional golf." 08:24.629 --> 08:26.506 [commentator] Well, this ought to be interesting. 08:26.589 --> 08:28.299 [Rapaport] Wyndham Clark was always looked at 08:28.382 --> 08:30.134 as a guy, like he's got the tools. 08:30.218 --> 08:33.804 He's big, he hits it a long way, he's got a soft touch around the greens. 08:33.888 --> 08:36.974 It's like, "Why is this guy not competing with the Justin Thomases 08:37.058 --> 08:38.434 and the Jordan Spieths?" 08:38.518 --> 08:40.811 -[crowd] Oh! -[commentator] Still not in for double. 08:40.895 --> 08:43.272 Wyndham was a bit of an angry golfer before, 08:43.356 --> 08:45.900 and I think he would be really, really hard on himself. 08:47.652 --> 08:49.820 I had trained my mind over years 08:49.904 --> 08:52.573 of belittling myself and thinking negatively, 08:52.657 --> 08:55.618 locking myself in rooms and not coming out for a long time 08:55.701 --> 09:00.164 or drinking to excess or being mean to people. 09:00.831 --> 09:01.999 I didn't wanna play golf. 09:02.083 --> 09:03.334 Oh my God. 09:03.417 --> 09:07.672 [man] And when you get in that pattern of negativity and "I stink, I suck, 09:07.755 --> 09:11.217 you know, I'll never make a cut again," all the things that I heard, 09:11.300 --> 09:12.677 it's hard to climb out of it. 09:14.345 --> 09:16.097 We had a little heart-to-heart. 09:16.180 --> 09:19.308 I was like, "Buddy, you're on the verge of not being on the PGA TOUR 09:19.934 --> 09:22.061 or on the verge of being a star." 09:22.144 --> 09:23.896 "You have to make a change, 09:25.022 --> 09:27.275 'cause you can't keep doing this to yourself." 09:29.235 --> 09:31.195 -[commentator] Oh, why? -[commentator 2] A stance. 09:32.905 --> 09:34.323 Yeah, he feels the pain. 09:37.535 --> 09:39.245 [Clark] A lot of people on my team were like, 09:39.328 --> 09:41.789 "We're pretty much telling you to see a sports psychologist." 09:41.872 --> 09:44.125 -"Otherwise, we're done." -Awesome. 09:44.709 --> 09:47.128 He told me, "I've seen everybody. I've done it." 09:47.211 --> 09:49.839 "They all told me the same stuff. I don't need a…" 09:49.922 --> 09:52.883 And I'm like, "I feel like I have somebody different this time." 09:52.967 --> 09:56.387 I didn't know it was gonna be different, but he had to try. 09:56.887 --> 10:01.142 [woman] How's your anxiety level over birdie putts? 10:01.642 --> 10:04.687 [Clark] I would say it's probably higher than par. It's like I can hit… 10:04.770 --> 10:08.357 I know that. I'm comparing it to when we really got you great. 10:08.441 --> 10:11.068 -[Clark] It's not-- Yeah. -It's gotten a little worse. 10:11.569 --> 10:13.988 [Clark] I started working with Julie in December. 10:14.655 --> 10:17.074 Now I have something and someone 10:17.158 --> 10:19.660 that is able to get me in the direction I want to be. 10:20.494 --> 10:22.455 [Julie] Make them care about you Sunday. 10:22.538 --> 10:23.706 Yeah. Yeah. 10:25.166 --> 10:28.961 [Julie] Sport psychology, mental coaching has taken off. 10:29.462 --> 10:34.967 People are really using this line of work way more often than five years ago. 10:35.051 --> 10:39.764 So why don't we say after this week we really sit down and talk about 10:41.098 --> 10:42.641 how you're doing with it all? 10:44.018 --> 10:49.148 Wyndham was extremely resistant to working with me at the beginning. 10:51.651 --> 10:55.237 He was struggling with anger towards himself, 10:55.321 --> 11:00.409 the loss and the grief of not having the career he wanted. 11:00.951 --> 11:03.120 I think we have to define "poor," 11:04.372 --> 11:07.416 "really bad," "mediocre," and "great." 11:07.500 --> 11:08.542 Yeah. 11:09.960 --> 11:14.048 [Julie] I really do stress that this is harder than golf. 11:14.632 --> 11:18.761 This is digging deep and really looking at yourself, 11:18.844 --> 11:20.221 and it's a lot of work. 11:22.306 --> 11:26.602 But he started to feel better about himself, 11:26.685 --> 11:30.231 and then that transferred to him playing better golf. 11:31.482 --> 11:33.359 [commentator] Here's Wyndham Clark. 11:37.738 --> 11:39.615 -[commentator 2] And how about that? -[applause] 11:39.699 --> 11:41.909 [commentator 2] Wow, that went close, didn't it? 11:41.992 --> 11:44.578 [commentator 3] Been working so hard on his mental game. 11:44.662 --> 11:47.206 [commentator] You look at him, you say, "Where's he been?" 11:48.499 --> 11:50.709 [Clark] I was in a positive spot, and I was saying, 11:50.793 --> 11:53.254 "We're playing good. We actually started making putts." 11:53.337 --> 11:54.755 "I feel confident about this." 11:54.839 --> 11:56.841 And then I go to Quail Hollow and it all… 11:56.924 --> 11:59.718 All matched up.

No golfers, specifically, 25:15.639 --> 25:18.683 but a lot of high-performance athletes. 25:18.767 --> 25:21.686 Has he dealt with high-performance athletes who… 25:23.271 --> 25:25.649 attitudes towards their sport have gone south? 25:25.732 --> 25:27.734 [Geno] That's exactly what he deals with. 25:28.610 --> 25:29.736 We shall see. 25:35.283 --> 25:37.494 [Geno] So, heading into the U.S. Open, 25:37.577 --> 25:40.705 it's, uh… it's been a little bit of a struggle as of late. 25:42.332 --> 25:43.917 Hoping things are gonna improve. 25:44.709 --> 25:48.171 But as a friend, I'm not just gonna up and leave him. 25:48.797 --> 25:53.176 But at the same time, it is my job, and I need to make money.

You gotta get through all that. 26:42.058 --> 26:43.852 I mean, does anybody disagree with me? 26:43.935 --> 26:47.522 [chuckles] I mean, no. I don't think anybody here disagrees with you. 26:47.606 --> 26:51.985 I think it's that fear of… It's scary to open yourself up to something, 26:52.068 --> 26:56.323 but sometimes that can make the difference between good and great, you know? 26:56.823 --> 26:59.159 [uplifting music playing] 27:05.081 --> 27:07.250 [commentator] For the first time in 75 years, 27:07.334 --> 27:10.503 the United States Open has returned to Los Angeles. 27:15.634 --> 27:18.553 -[man] Riggs!
