Dave Portnoy hunts for who told Sabrina Whit wasn't good

The source is blurred out. Dave's sarcasm isn't.

Gotta get to the bottom of who told Sabrina that Whit wasn't very good. Could've been anyone t.co/kbpc3zYN7a

Really hurts that my guy Whit thinks I'm always setting him up to fail t.co/Wio2BZGHyp t.co/PeZKQeCgCL

So that's the setup. Somebody got in Sabrina's ear on the course at Big Cedar Lodge, told her Whit couldn't play, and threw in that he was scared of the matchup on top of it. The edit blurs the guy's face, which is the funniest choice available, because a blur doesn't hide anybody. It just makes everyone watching try to figure out who it is. 'Could've been anyone' is Dave's way of saying it was probably someone in particular. We're not guessing who.

For anyone who hasn't been following, the Internet Invitational is the Barstool and Bob Does Sports team event at Big Cedar Lodge in Ridgedale, Missouri. 64 YouTube golfers, athletes and internet personalities get drafted onto 4 captains' teams and play 2v2 match play. Sabrina Andolpho went to Wesley Bryan's Green team. Ryan Whitney went 28th overall to Ryan Ruffels' White team, 11 picks before Sabrina. Opposite sides, which is all you need for a little trash talk to turn into a storyline.

Dave helped start the 'Whit isn't good' narrative himself. He's on the rules crew this year with Big Cat and Kevin Kisner, and in Episode 3 he sent Whit off a tee with about as much faith as you'd give a guy hitting into a lake.

“Go. Don't worry, Whit. Not expecting much.” – Dave Portnoy

That's how it works in this event. The expectations get set out loud on camera, and then a guy has to go play a singles match while the whole internet waits to see if he backs up the trash talk. The official Internet Invitational account posted the same clip with the same 'could've been anyone' line, so the event is clearly enjoying the bit as much as Dave is.

Episode 4 dropped November 5, Episode 5 lands November 9 and the finale is November 12, so expect a lot more of this before somebody cashes a check. Everyone's going to keep guessing who the blurred guy is, and the internet will probably settle on a name before Dave ever admits one. Whit gets something out of this either way. Being called bad and afraid on a Barstool golf show is about the best motivation he could ask for.
