WEBVTT - Masters Sunday: Rory McIlroy wins again at Augusta National 0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:04.160 Now, The Shotgun Starting Golf is full of mathematics. There's 0:00:04.200 --> 0:00:06.680 a lot of setup work that we have to do 0:00:06.720 --> 0:00:10.000 in order to make a tournament work. So I'm going 0:00:10.080 --> 0:00:12.399 to demonstrate to you just exactly how we do a 0:00:12.440 --> 0:00:22.000 shotgun start here. All right, alright, alright, did no man 0:00:24.040 --> 0:00:25.560 darn your. 0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:43.680 Gredians are welcome to a Sunday edition of The Shotgun Start. 0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:48.240 It is April twelfth, Andy, how we doing, Brendan? 0:00:49.120 --> 0:00:52.720 It is Victory Monday for our gambling pot. 0:00:54.280 --> 0:00:57.640 On the board. On the board, you went, you kind 0:00:57.680 --> 0:01:00.240 of okie duke. He deeked us into a Rory pick 0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:03.960 on the preview podcast, you went there. Congrats to you 0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:07.839 pound for that. We're two for two. Now we've gone 0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:09.800 back to back. There's all sorts of I picked Roy 0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:12.520 last year, you picked Roy this year. There's a notion 0:01:12.600 --> 0:01:15.679 that Rory hasn't won a Master since PJ Clark joined 0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:19.040 the joined the Shotguns Start Friday at Golf Enterprises. There's 0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:22.600 all sorts of good trends going right now we have 0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:25.960 two fabulous masters in a row. It was another awesome 0:01:26.040 --> 0:01:30.640 Sunday Sunday. It's different, did you say, yeah? Certainly way 0:01:30.720 --> 0:01:32.720 more out in the open. We're gonna dive right into it. 0:01:32.720 --> 0:01:34.720 We're gonna bring in We're gonna bring in boys, We're 0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:37.720 gonna bring in men like Kevin van Valkenberg, who's tracking, 0:01:38.280 --> 0:01:43.640 who's writing for tomorrow Morning. We say different, very different. 0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:46.080 I think when we started this podcast last year, we're 0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:49.040 like we were like exhausted on the floor with it, 0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:51.920 with just the roller coaster of emotion, like always the 0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:55.480 worst loss, the greatest win. Everything. With the way the 0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:58.440 day started, it was already an incredible story before we 0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:02.600 ever hit a shot. Today it felt like really scrambled. 0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:06.360 I didn't know where to necessarily necessarily start. I watched 0:02:06.400 --> 0:02:09.160 a lot of it on the early stuff on television 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:13.080 in the Media Center. Started with Rose like kind of 0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:16.840 went up to Scotti, fell back to Rory. By thirteen, 0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:21.320 it was really open there in a totally different Sunday. 0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:26.720 Yeah, I went out with Scottie to start and they 0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:29.600 obviously the shotting, I mean like things are gonna be 0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:32.600 lost to the tournament. Like the shot I hit on 0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:35.080 one was absolutely disgusting. 0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:36.520 Dirty from the from the straw. 0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:39.960 Yeah, It's like he starts out with a birdie and 0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:42.480 you're like, oh, he's going then all of a sudden, 0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:46.040 you know, you get Rose going and Rory falls back. 0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:48.880 I mean I was jumping around and I had to 0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:51.760 take a pause going to the press center and just 0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:55.480 regroup and just take a ledge of like everything going on. 0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:58.919 And you know, I kind of regrouped and went back 0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:03.360 out for the back nine. And what I mean the 0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:07.880 magic of Augusta National is that it is just this. 0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:13.280 You know, it's such a great chasers course because if 0:03:13.320 --> 0:03:18.800 you are chasing, you could really hit shots in score. 0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:22.560 But then also it's the hardest course to play with 0:03:22.639 --> 0:03:25.520 the lead, and we've seen that. We saw that obviously 0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:28.320 with Rory all weekend. I feel like the psychology of 0:03:28.360 --> 0:03:31.440 the psychology of how you play the golf course, and 0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:34.560 Scottie talked about it in his post round press conference. 0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:36.440 It's a hard place to play with the lead. It's 0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:39.000 harder place to play with a big, big lead because 0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:41.320 you get a little bit more defensive, and the second 0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:43.680 you get a little more defensive, you just bring in 0:03:43.720 --> 0:03:46.880 the bigger numbers while other guys can that are chasing, 0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:50.600 can play a little bit notch up that aggressiveness. And 0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:53.720 we saw it all the day where you know, slow 0:03:53.760 --> 0:03:56.800 start for Rory, uh and it looked like for a 0:03:56.800 --> 0:03:59.720 second it was just gonna be Cameron Young show, you know, 0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:02.520 and then we get you know, we get Rose and 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:06.480 Scottie searching up the leader board, and you think, okay, 0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:08.680 it's gonna be you know, maybe it's Roses time. 0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:10.880 When Rose went to twelve, it was like, all right, 0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:14.400 well it's his time. The fans seem to rally around that, like, 0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:17.440 you know, smartest fans and golf the whole thing, like 0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:20.920 like really really rallying around Rose when he went to twelve, 0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:23.520 Like all right, guys, been like a hard luck bridesmaid 0:04:23.600 --> 0:04:26.200 a couple of times with the wounds from twenty five 0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:27.840 are still fresh, and it felt like it was going 0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:32.039 to be Roses to lose. You talked about chasing and leading. 0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:36.120 Rory now has great experience doing both, and each Sunday 0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:39.240 he's been a leader. He's been a chaser. He's defended 0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:42.200 the lead at the end a couple times. Now wanted 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:44.120 in a playoff. He's kind of done everything. I was 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:47.520 rewatching his every shot or every hole at Augusta this morning, 0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:50.400 just kind of prepping. And he had this great quote 0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:54.560 at the ten minute mark about of that video about 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:57.080 experience He's like, look, I felt like I've had a 0:04:57.120 --> 0:04:59.760 ton of experiences at that course, both good and bad, 0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:03.520 played in a bunch of multiple final groups, and you 0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:05.320 know kind of had seen it all, and all of those, 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:09.600 you know, boiled into that journey that he had last year, 0:05:09.640 --> 0:05:12.040 and it's just, I don't know, it keeps building on itself. 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:14.560 This was a very different sort of It was almost 0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:17.479 the eighteenth was not that release, right. I think the 0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:19.880 very special aspect of it was his parents being there. 0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:22.560 We'll talk about that, but it was sort of because 0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:24.720 he put it to two inches, right, and then it's 0:05:24.720 --> 0:05:26.880 just this tap in. It was a very different kind 0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:31.679 of release and different kind of Sunday, but another another 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:35.080 incredible like experience he puts in the bucket for next 0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:37.360 year even and we're not going to get to that now. 0:05:37.440 --> 0:05:41.039 But what what a odd field? I mean it not 0:05:41.040 --> 0:05:43.080 in a derogatory way. It was sort of an odd 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:45.960 Master's for him, right. It wasn't always his best stuff, 0:05:46.520 --> 0:05:49.920 and it certainly didn't feel like he was gonna win 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:53.159 an hour and a half, two hours into it at all, 0:05:53.560 --> 0:05:57.280 and then by fourteen it was like, I don't think 0:05:57.279 --> 0:05:59.599 anyone's gonna like touch him. It was. It was a 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:01.800 really different dynamic than last year. 0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:06.440 I mean, the golf course was really hard today. 0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:08.400 Oh I don't know, we're gonna have to do we 0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:11.520 need to talk about the golf courseational needs to be 0:06:11.800 --> 0:06:12.920 the analytics. 0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:15.360 People that were sitting on their couch might might have 0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:18.760 other takes. But I thought, you know, the thing that 0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:23.320 was there today that wasn't there the previous two days 0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:25.880 the wind, and it was it was, you know, it 0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:28.960 was really interesting as just a you know, somebody that's 0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:31.120 going around the grounds is like you'd get into certain 0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:33.520 spots where you wouldn't feel anything and be really hot. 0:06:34.480 --> 0:06:37.359 Then you get up on a ridge and you'd be like, whoa, 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:41.200 it's really blowing out here. And it was. It was gusty. 0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:45.960 I don't think it was necessarily like consistently steady. And 0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:48.880 I think that's when that golf course plays the trickiest, obviously, 0:06:48.920 --> 0:06:51.800 because you're like having to trust these numbers and the 0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:54.560 targets are so small. And I think that's why what 0:06:54.720 --> 0:07:00.200 explains like nobody really getting it going sustained all day, 0:07:00.400 --> 0:07:02.599 Like you could see people like okay, they'd hit a 0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:06.560 couple of good shots and then it's like you just 0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:09.200 get there and then it's like you can't hit that 0:07:09.360 --> 0:07:12.040 high level shot and maybe you misjudge the wind. And 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:15.200 the thing about Augusta especially when it gets firm, and 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:18.400 it was pretty firm today. It was obviously very firm 0:07:18.400 --> 0:07:23.760 on Thursday. The targets are so tiny and then if 0:07:23.800 --> 0:07:27.840 you add in wind, that's a little unpredictable and you're 0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:30.000 missing the target by one or two yards. I mean, 0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:33.440 like the perfect example was the sixth six hole. I 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:36.280 mean that back right corner was like damn near impossible. 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:38.480 Justin Rose hit a great shot in there, but like 0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:41.960 everybody else was either coming up short, some would go long, 0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:43.960 you know, and it was all we. 0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:46.280 Got Jim by a wind there, like yeah, that was 0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:48.400 all wind. I mean, Trevor on the broadcast, I was 0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:50.960 watching like that was a good shot. That was all wind. 0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:53.520 That changed. That changed, and I think you saw it too, 0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:55.920 is like you know, hitting it. You know, Cam shot 0:07:55.960 --> 0:08:01.520 into fifteen like a moment where he you know, he 0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:04.120 he needed to make an eagle or a birdie there 0:08:04.800 --> 0:08:07.040 and he had a really good shot into fifteen. It 0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:09.760 just it was down win in that greens firm and 0:08:09.800 --> 0:08:13.360 it just bounced through. But I think that that wind 0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:18.680 particularly made it really hard to sustain great scoring today, 0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:21.520 and I think that's why we saw this, you know, 0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:26.640 this jammed up leader board and just so many different 0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:29.080 moments where you're like, this guy's gonna win, this guy's 0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:32.120 gonna win, this guy's gonna win. The good news was, 0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:34.679 you know, there's one group in there that you know, 0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:36.520 we didn't have to watch. I felt like was the 0:08:36.640 --> 0:08:37.880 Lowry Burns group. 0:08:38.440 --> 0:08:40.599 Joseph and I, I know abother podcast I'm going to 0:08:40.640 --> 0:08:42.559 talk about this. In the first ten minutes, Joseph and 0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:45.160 I were workshopping and takes like the Masters used to 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:48.560 not put tea times out by score necessarily. They would 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:51.240 put like you know, Jack or the lead like the Stars, 0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:54.240 Bob Jones would be somewhere in the middle, and I 0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:55.719 was like, he was like, do they just need to 0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:57.400 send those guys to the front and tell them to 0:08:57.400 --> 0:09:00.400 play five holes? Make it an even seventy two? Pull 0:09:00.480 --> 0:09:03.200 Burns and Lowry off the the off the course. How 0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:06.960 Ton just causing it all out in traffic jam backup, 0:09:07.000 --> 0:09:10.240 which I was there for. How Tug's Brown was killing me, 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:12.880 killing me at thirteen does it didn't know the rules 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:15.560 started picking He's in the red steaks, just picking the 0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:20.760 ball up. Incredible, like shot Scottie. No, I didn't see 0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:21.760 it on one. What did he do? 0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:24.240 He piped a drive and then he chocked. He laid 0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:28.240 sod on a wedge. I haven't my notes. 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:31.640 I I want to come for on Lee in the 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:32.439 first ten minutes. 0:09:32.720 --> 0:09:37.480 I have my notes. How Tongue Lee? Uh so you know, 0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:40.600 Scott he's in the trees. How Tug's right in the fairway, Scotty, 0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:43.680 he's this insane shot. Yeah, you know, and how Tongue 0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:47.319 just lays Sadie. It lands like fifteen yards short of 0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:50.240 the punting surface. He had a wedge. I mean he 0:09:50.240 --> 0:09:54.000 had a wedge. It it is a two shot swing 0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:57.480 on the first hole. I'm just put sheriff. Sheriff fixed 0:09:57.480 --> 0:10:02.280 the how to the whole one. You're right, the put 0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:04.200 the police puns in your in your notebook. 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:04.760 I love that. 0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:07.560 No, I mean, there were just guys in the way there, 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:11.640 but it was it was sixteen I don't even know 0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:12.400 what he ended out. 0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:15.000 Oh maybe the top forty. You might not have been 0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:18.000 in the top forty. Lamaya and I were just like 0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:19.679 you got to pull them out of there. I was 0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:22.880 going to say about the wind. That was the only moment. 0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:25.160 At thirteen I went up to get Scottie and ended 0:10:25.240 --> 0:10:28.000 up with twenty minutes of how tong Lee ruling, and 0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:29.960 I was just like, what am I doing with my 0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:32.960 time right now? And that was the only moment. It 0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:34.360 was quite I thought it was going to be a 0:10:34.400 --> 0:10:37.880 boiler quite frankly, but the wind for us made it 0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:40.040 quite pleasant. I thought it was. I thought it was 0:10:40.080 --> 0:10:42.920 a pleasant evening on the hot side, but there was 0:10:43.040 --> 0:10:46.160 absolute wind present. It was kind of pleasant breezy for us. 0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:47.680 The only time I got hot was when I was 0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:50.240 down there on thirteen just waiting for how tong Lee 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:51.640 to hack it on the But I was like, this 0:10:51.720 --> 0:10:53.959 is so still I'm getting hot right now. But it 0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:54.680 was a great day. 0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:58.720 The thing about the day is there's and obviously everybody 0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:02.719 watching you probably felt this forrenetic pace and everything on 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:05.920 the ground. It's like we have to make calls about 0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:08.880 like where we're going. Yeah, And it's just like I 0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:11.880 found myself on the front nine just being just pulled 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:14.600 a million directions. I'm like looking at the board, I'm like, oh, 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:16.640 I gotta go there. I gotta go there. And that's 0:11:16.679 --> 0:11:18.400 why I had to call time out. I had to 0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:20.640 go back to the press center and I watched all 0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:22.960 the shots of the people in the mix, and I 0:11:23.000 --> 0:11:25.120 was like, Okay, now I feel like I've got a 0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:25.640 clear head. 0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:28.200 I actually know what's going on. Yeah, and going back 0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:31.640 out there, I felt scrambled. At times, I'll say, we'll 0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:33.800 get through this on our notes. I felt like this 0:11:34.520 --> 0:11:36.480 you get lucky. Sometimes. I feel like I had like 0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:38.640 four or five instances today where I was like, God, 0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:41.320 I'm so happy I'm on the ground, like really, like 0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:43.080 I got the goods and we'll get like whether I 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:45.760 was walking with Faldough being next to Rory on eighteen 0:11:46.200 --> 0:11:48.040 the rain scene, quite frankly, was some of the best 0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:52.800 scene I've ever gotten with he and Cam. The wind stuff, 0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:55.280 though I noticed it, especially with Rose. I think that 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:57.560 really jammed him, like all of a sudden, he was 0:11:57.640 --> 0:12:01.800 backing off his ball like non stopping and eleven like 0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:03.079 it's twelve, you. 0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:04.800 Know, seventeen backed off. 0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:08.760 Yeah, it really it started like it started there around 0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:11.680 like when he went took the lead, when he quite frankly, 0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:14.440 once to twelve and it was there were it was 0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:17.040 gusting and swirling a little bit, and he just just 0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:20.079 got quickly uncomfortable and fell off. Obviously they were just 0:12:20.080 --> 0:12:22.800 couldn't push the pace anymore. We should talk about Roy 0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:26.280 McElroy probably, Yeah, do we want to go legacy? We 0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:31.320 want to talk about his specific day today. I let's 0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:33.439 talk about his day. I think that's the best, the 0:12:33.480 --> 0:12:34.800 best path, you know. 0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:40.360 I I to have a six shot lead, to lose 0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:43.720 the six shot lead, and then to go at one 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:47.000 point I think he was three back in the final 0:12:47.080 --> 0:12:52.480 round and to regroup. I mean you could talk there's 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:58.720 good experience, bad experience, there's maturity, and I think it 0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:02.680 just shows how much you know, kind of grit the 0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:07.760 guy has where you know so many people to if 0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:10.560 you lost a six shot lead in a single day, 0:13:11.120 --> 0:13:15.000 it would just be devastating to you. And then to 0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:16.920 come out of the gates the way he did slow 0:13:17.200 --> 0:13:20.800 have that, I mean just just a real bad double 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:21.440 on four. 0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:28.440 Yeah, it was. It's kind of interesting. It sort of 0:13:28.440 --> 0:13:30.480 lined up with some of the grades he gave himself, 0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:33.120 like my irons were not good. It was a bad 0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:36.439 like a big pole, I mean, left of the Bonker 0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:40.120 pretty good way, great great ship, good ship, and then 0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:43.959 pulled the lf Potts the second one was more unforgivable. 0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:46.520 The first one was hard, but like to be able 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:51.160 to you know, to be able to go down the 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:54.040 way he did into I mean, the guy was twelve 0:13:54.120 --> 0:13:57.480 under through two days and then he's standing on the 0:13:57.520 --> 0:14:03.600 seventh t at nine under and you're just you. So 0:14:03.679 --> 0:14:06.880 many players would just be shell shocked, and I think 0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:10.880 we've seen Rory at different points in his career at younger, 0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:15.000 younger years in that state of shell shock and it's 0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:19.520 just spirals out of control from there. The ability to 0:14:19.640 --> 0:14:25.920 regroup and be calm in that moment and understand, hey, yeah, 0:14:25.960 --> 0:14:28.040 I've gotten some bad breaks. I hit a great shot 0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:32.720 on six that you know, ended up long and that 0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:34.960 was a really tough spot to be and to be 0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:38.200 able to just regroup and be like, basically, the world, 0:14:38.320 --> 0:14:42.320 my world is not ending, and to to kind of 0:14:42.600 --> 0:14:45.160 you know, regroup, make a couple of birdies, get back 0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:49.000 in the mix, and then like just understand. I think, 0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:54.240 like it's so easy in that moment to like, you 0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:57.040 have this number, he said in this his pros round, 0:14:57.080 --> 0:15:00.600 Like I had this number fifteen fifteen under my head 0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:03.560 right as so like my goal of what I wanted 0:15:03.560 --> 0:15:06.040 to get to today, I thought that would win for sure. 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:10.720 So you think about how you would feel if you 0:15:11.400 --> 0:15:15.880 started the day fifteen under is my number and on 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:18.840 the seventh te you're sitting at nine. 0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:21.720 He talked about it in that moment, like I really 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:23.800 like if I didn't make those birdies seven and eight, 0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:26.000 I just he didn't know, he was just gonna have 0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:29.000 to go all gass the whole way through the back. 0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:29.960 Yeah. 0:15:30.000 --> 0:15:32.880 And then like you said, he you know, he's standing 0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:34.960 there on seven and he gets it, gets it done. 0:15:35.080 --> 0:15:35.320 Yeah. 0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:37.960 And at that point, you know, Rose had pulled past 0:15:38.000 --> 0:15:40.720 some Cam who he's playing with is is out ahead 0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:43.800 of him, And you know, I think like probably like 0:15:43.920 --> 0:15:48.360 one of the big reasons that he felt okay, Yeah, 0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:50.400 And I think like a pivotal moment of the round 0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:55.280 was the Cam Young miss on six, Like that gave 0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:58.240 that had to have given him fuel in that moment 0:15:58.280 --> 0:16:02.120 of like okay, like I'm I'm okay. 0:16:02.320 --> 0:16:04.720 Did Cam make another putt after that? I'm trying to 0:16:04.760 --> 0:16:07.400 I guess he birdied eight, but that was an amazing 0:16:07.400 --> 0:16:12.120 at fifteen, sixteen seventeen, he just like did not. I 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:15.400 think after six he just really struggled with the Pott 0:16:15.440 --> 0:16:19.840 about this Potter yeah, it was, uh. 0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:21.720 And I mean so then you have Cam, you have Rose, 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:24.920 you have Schefflers all of a sudden right square with you, 0:16:25.320 --> 0:16:27.440 and you're like and then he goes and he just 0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:31.400 he finds that championship gear and he gets, you know, 0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:34.480 basically into a similar position of where he was on 0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:36.680 you know, last year, like not quite as big of 0:16:36.680 --> 0:16:39.720 a lead, but he walks off twelve t with the 0:16:39.760 --> 0:16:40.760 tournament in his hand. 0:16:40.840 --> 0:16:43.640 Really, I we talked about this a little bit when 0:16:43.640 --> 0:16:46.240 he took the took the big six shot lead, like 0:16:46.880 --> 0:16:51.840 he has these fourteen hole stretches or seven hole stretches 0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:54.440 where like I won the tournament there. I don't think 0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:57.280 he clearly didn't win it on Friday night. It just 0:16:57.320 --> 0:16:59.560 sort of came at this clean break of the thirty 0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:03.160 six hole mark where everybody could write this narrative of, uh, 0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:05.480 he's twelve and maybe sometimes that would happen on a 0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:08.000 Thursday morning where he goes out in thirty or a 0:17:08.040 --> 0:17:11.560 Friday afternoon coming in and and and it just happened 0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:15.639 so fast and made it this clean narrative for the weekend. 0:17:15.720 --> 0:17:18.840 But he didn't have his best stuff this entire week. 0:17:18.920 --> 0:17:22.240 And but he's quote unquote freed up, right, he has 0:17:22.320 --> 0:17:25.400 the jacket in his locker already, And we talked about 0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:28.479 how much he's evolved as a golfer, and like we 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:32.080 know his strategic brain is is on point and has 0:17:32.119 --> 0:17:35.560 been for the last five years or so. Whatever you know, 0:17:35.680 --> 0:17:37.480 term you want to put on it, based on his 0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:41.280 US Open performances, based on his performances here, Like mentally 0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:45.200 he's freed up. Physically, he's like always had the game 0:17:45.240 --> 0:17:48.560 to play here quite well. And so it was interesting 0:17:48.640 --> 0:17:52.600 I thought this week compared to last year, it's probably 0:17:52.600 --> 0:17:55.480 those first two, like strategic brains dialed. He's knows this 0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:59.000 course is bed as well as anyone, Like mental brain 0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:01.879 has dialed. He's freed up, has seventeen years of experience, 0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:04.639 and not the pressure of putting a jacket in his locker. 0:18:04.720 --> 0:18:06.680 Maybe the pressure of this you know, big lead or 0:18:06.720 --> 0:18:07.920 whatever and being in contention. 0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:12.600 I think there was I you know, I Rory's a historian. Yeah, 0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:15.280 I think there's a lot of pressure. And I don't 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:17.760 know if he'd admit it or not, but like I 0:18:17.800 --> 0:18:21.120 think he probably felt a lot of you know, it's 0:18:21.119 --> 0:18:23.520 not the career Grand Slam. It doesn't equate to the 0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:27.520 career Grand Slam coupled with a eleven year drought. But 0:18:27.560 --> 0:18:30.879 I I I have to think that this weekend he 0:18:30.960 --> 0:18:34.520 felt it for becoming the fourth player of all time 0:18:34.520 --> 0:18:35.440 to win back to back. 0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:39.480 I completely there was I'm not suggesting he was totally free, 0:18:39.520 --> 0:18:41.920 but it was a different kind of weight I think 0:18:41.960 --> 0:18:45.639 probably than last year when you're talking about these these 0:18:45.800 --> 0:18:48.480 these notches on the resume are a little like less 0:18:48.520 --> 0:18:51.040 weighty than oh my god, I've never won the Masters. 0:18:51.040 --> 0:18:54.240 In career Grand Slam. It felt like those three of 0:18:54.240 --> 0:18:58.479 those three aspects, like the physical the game was the 0:18:58.480 --> 0:19:01.159 one he had to work with, work on the most. 0:19:01.680 --> 0:19:04.719 And that's where he's standing on that seventeen And like 0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:07.359 you know, we'll talk about the rest of the field. 0:19:07.400 --> 0:19:09.679 No one ran away with it. Those guys were and 0:19:09.720 --> 0:19:12.239 you talk about the wind, and there were reasons for it. 0:19:12.240 --> 0:19:17.240 It wasn't like guys were necessarily gagging on themselves. It 0:19:17.359 --> 0:19:21.400 was like the physical stuff he had to sort of manage. 0:19:21.840 --> 0:19:24.439 The game. He had to manage like, uh ore is 0:19:24.480 --> 0:19:26.639 my T shirt on thirteen? Gonna go miles into the 0:19:26.680 --> 0:19:28.800 pine straw again. He worked on it Saturday night on 0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:30.639 the range, like that was the part he had to 0:19:30.720 --> 0:19:33.280 manage the most, not the weight of sleeping on the 0:19:33.320 --> 0:19:35.359 leader at the lead or the final group on Saturday 0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:37.960 night like he did last year with Bryson. Yeah, the 0:19:39.200 --> 0:19:41.200 it's probably good spot to be if you're Roy McElroy, 0:19:41.200 --> 0:19:42.320 given the golf skills you have. 0:19:42.880 --> 0:19:45.040 I mean, like you think about it, it's like the 0:19:45.119 --> 0:19:48.680 confidence now even more so now where he wins this 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:55.080 with you know, you always imagine for years Rory McElroy 0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:58.240 winning this and this was very much last year outside 0:19:58.240 --> 0:20:01.720 of if you take away the double bogie, you know, 0:20:01.800 --> 0:20:05.160 those four holes. Basically Rory McElroy won last year because 0:20:05.200 --> 0:20:07.840 of just Tee degreen excellence and he you know, he 0:20:07.920 --> 0:20:11.720 putted well right, but he was he was he had 0:20:11.880 --> 0:20:14.480 just full control of the golf ball. Last year he 0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:18.679 drove it so well outside of you know, the holes seven, 0:20:18.880 --> 0:20:26.359 fourteen and seventeen. And this year it's like he won 0:20:26.600 --> 0:20:30.879 because he understood what he was like how he was 0:20:30.880 --> 0:20:32.679 playing the golf course and he talked about it in 0:20:32.720 --> 0:20:36.400 his post round press or you know, he's it's basically 0:20:36.400 --> 0:20:38.720 been the only place he's played for three weeks, right, 0:20:39.560 --> 0:20:42.080 you know, he he came out here, he talked about 0:20:42.359 --> 0:20:44.520 how he had talked to Jack about, you know, how 0:20:44.560 --> 0:20:47.600 he prepped and Jack would go out to courses the 0:20:47.600 --> 0:20:50.760 week before and play, you know, a bunch of rounds 0:20:50.760 --> 0:20:55.639 of keep score single ball, and Rory did that and 0:20:55.680 --> 0:20:58.480 he you know, obviously on Saturday he spoke about how 0:20:58.480 --> 0:21:00.840 he dropped Poppy off at school, get up there and 0:21:00.880 --> 0:21:05.720 come back for dinner. And I think, like you saw 0:21:06.320 --> 0:21:09.480 some of that experience, and you know, in in little 0:21:09.520 --> 0:21:13.240 places like you know, just where he was leaving his 0:21:13.280 --> 0:21:15.359 golf ball when he would get in trouble, or some 0:21:15.440 --> 0:21:18.280 of his misses I think were different than he he 0:21:18.440 --> 0:21:22.760 used to used to play it. And the comfort level 0:21:22.880 --> 0:21:25.240 with the with the shots around the green, I think 0:21:25.280 --> 0:21:29.240 we're was so evident. He was just magical around the 0:21:29.240 --> 0:21:34.600 green all week and I I you know, it's terrifying 0:21:34.600 --> 0:21:37.720 when you think about zooming out like he he won 0:21:37.800 --> 0:21:42.000 without his best stuff tea Green. If you know this, 0:21:42.880 --> 0:21:46.879 the whole dynamic of him at Augustin National has completely flipped. 0:21:46.960 --> 0:21:49.320 It is a place he loves to spend time now. 0:21:49.840 --> 0:21:53.440 It is a place that he fully understands how to play. 0:21:53.960 --> 0:21:56.960 And because of the way he won last year, where 0:21:57.359 --> 0:22:01.680 he basically did everything people said you can't do and win. 0:22:02.560 --> 0:22:04.840 It has now given him this freedom and now it 0:22:05.040 --> 0:22:08.159 like adds on top of that that he won without 0:22:08.160 --> 0:22:08.919 his best stuff. 0:22:09.600 --> 0:22:12.000 Yeah, I mean just to talk about like his happy 0:22:12.080 --> 0:22:12.639 hunting ground. 0:22:12.640 --> 0:22:12.920 It. 0:22:12.920 --> 0:22:14.840 It was funny to watch him fly off in a 0:22:14.840 --> 0:22:16.639 golf card after they've done the jacket ceremony on the 0:22:16.640 --> 0:22:19.160 putting green and then go down the first hole. He's 0:22:19.240 --> 0:22:21.840 just like waving from the cart at the crowd like 0:22:22.119 --> 0:22:24.119 it was like, this is like kind of is his 0:22:24.400 --> 0:22:28.000 place now, you know, his his happy his happy place. 0:22:28.040 --> 0:22:30.600 Now you mentioned the short game, just to put it 0:22:30.640 --> 0:22:34.240 sort of put a bow on that sixteen. He has 0:22:34.280 --> 0:22:37.840 to he has to do kind of the tiger ish play, right, 0:22:37.960 --> 0:22:40.600 he missed it. He goes long left. Not not quite 0:22:40.680 --> 0:22:44.320 that that shot at all, but an incredible play through there. 0:22:44.359 --> 0:22:47.800 Seventeen missus short, which he said was a harder chip 0:22:47.840 --> 0:22:51.320 than people thought or it looked. That's another short game shot. 0:22:51.359 --> 0:22:54.280 Eighteen not the most impossible bunker shot, but has to 0:22:54.280 --> 0:22:55.959 get out of a bunker with all the pressure of 0:22:56.000 --> 0:22:59.000 no doubles, no doubles. We just watched Bryson do the 0:22:59.000 --> 0:23:00.800 same thing, you know, hit from that bunker and have 0:23:00.800 --> 0:23:02.560 a roll off the front and he made a triple 0:23:03.960 --> 0:23:04.680 and so short. 0:23:05.280 --> 0:23:09.520 If you go back to really another really important moment 0:23:09.560 --> 0:23:12.840 in the round, just like last year, up and down 0:23:12.920 --> 0:23:19.320 on three from the bunker. Yeah, in his shot. They 0:23:19.359 --> 0:23:21.880 both hit great bunker shots. I thought Roy's was really 0:23:21.880 --> 0:23:25.040 well well done because you know, it's like you listen 0:23:25.119 --> 0:23:28.919 to all the greats, and I think Bernard said this Friday, 0:23:28.960 --> 0:23:32.200 I guess like when the pins weight left on three, 0:23:32.640 --> 0:23:34.400 all you want to be is left of it, but 0:23:34.800 --> 0:23:36.680 there's only five paces to be left of it. He 0:23:36.800 --> 0:23:39.520 left it right left of it short, right up the 0:23:39.560 --> 0:23:42.440 gut on that hole, which was interesting, you know, came 0:23:42.520 --> 0:23:47.000 right after like something. You know, I while you're watching 0:23:47.000 --> 0:23:49.600 these tournaments, you're just looking for these like micro moments, 0:23:49.640 --> 0:23:52.760 and I thought, like last year, Rory being outside of 0:23:52.800 --> 0:23:56.359 Bryson on three really was a big moment because he 0:23:56.400 --> 0:24:00.159 made the putt. Bryson misses the putt. You know, the 0:24:00.200 --> 0:24:03.080 same thing happened on two though, but it was flipped 0:24:03.359 --> 0:24:08.399 where Cam, I mean Cam literally Chili dipped that wedge 0:24:10.520 --> 0:24:13.080 and it was he was looking at using the bank 0:24:13.440 --> 0:24:16.800 to feed it back in and he just like it was. 0:24:16.840 --> 0:24:19.440 It was so lucky. And anyways, he ends up right 0:24:19.440 --> 0:24:22.199 behind Rory's ball. He makes Rory missus and I was like, 0:24:22.240 --> 0:24:24.639 oh that, you know, like that, you know, it's just 0:24:24.680 --> 0:24:26.760 one of those moments you file away, but then you 0:24:26.760 --> 0:24:29.080 know Rory comes back and makes the birdie there and 0:24:29.160 --> 0:24:31.960 just to give it away. But like that short game 0:24:32.160 --> 0:24:35.840 was there all week and and it just bailed him out. 0:24:35.880 --> 0:24:39.679 And is as much as everybody always is driving you know, 0:24:39.680 --> 0:24:41.480 you got to drive it well, you got to hit 0:24:41.640 --> 0:24:44.040 good irons. And this is what makes Augustus such a 0:24:44.080 --> 0:24:46.600 great term. Of course, you have to do everything. And 0:24:46.680 --> 0:24:50.080 I think the short game is the the the skill 0:24:50.200 --> 0:24:53.960 that that people often overlook. That is like there aren't 0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:56.399 bad chippers of the golf ball that win the Masters. 0:24:56.000 --> 0:24:56.680 For the most part. 0:24:57.280 --> 0:25:01.280 No, No, they are like the best hands in the 0:25:01.320 --> 0:25:07.400 game typically win. I Guessa Rom, Scottie Ryk, recent winner, 0:25:07.560 --> 0:25:10.879 Patrick Reid, Jordan Spith, Like you go down the list, 0:25:11.480 --> 0:25:16.120 olthavl Sev. You know all these guys are are typically 0:25:16.160 --> 0:25:17.400 great chippers of the golf ball. 0:25:17.680 --> 0:25:21.560 Yeah, he was like, we should do on a day 0:25:21.600 --> 0:25:24.479 like today. It was a roller coaster in and of itself. 0:25:24.480 --> 0:25:27.639 It wasn't quite like the one last year. We had 0:25:27.640 --> 0:25:29.480 to narrow it down to like the shot of the 0:25:29.560 --> 0:25:30.640 day or the shot that won. 0:25:30.600 --> 0:25:34.119 Him the tournament. It's probably twelve. It's probably twelve, which. 0:25:34.480 --> 0:25:37.200 On Sundays, if we're being honest, is usually just sort 0:25:37.200 --> 0:25:39.680 of like, you know, aim over the bunker and make 0:25:39.720 --> 0:25:41.960 your three, or you roll it into the water and 0:25:42.000 --> 0:25:44.280 you lose it. There's rarely of like go and grab 0:25:44.320 --> 0:25:48.240 it by the neck to there and Rory cut one 0:25:48.280 --> 0:25:54.040 in there beautifully fade right up. Had an amazing anecdote 0:25:54.640 --> 0:25:57.080 about listening. I mean this talks about the experience and 0:25:57.119 --> 0:25:58.800 the weight of it no longer being on the weight 0:25:58.840 --> 0:26:01.439 of not having a jacket. Talk about a two thousand 0:26:01.480 --> 0:26:05.720 and nine practice round he had with Tom Watson in 0:26:05.880 --> 0:26:08.120 describing just wait for your wind. Wait for the wind 0:26:08.119 --> 0:26:09.840 that you want while you're over the wall. Wait, wait, wait, 0:26:09.840 --> 0:26:10.640 and wait. 0:26:10.480 --> 0:26:13.720 Wait for the wind that you know is the wind 0:26:14.040 --> 0:26:17.280 because it swirls back there. So it's like wait for 0:26:17.320 --> 0:26:20.159 the wind that you know where it's supposed to be, 0:26:21.040 --> 0:26:22.440 and then hit as fast as you can. 0:26:23.800 --> 0:26:27.960 And he's leaning on that, you know, that's seventeen years ago, right, 0:26:28.080 --> 0:26:31.919 and has the recall and I'm sure he's applied that 0:26:32.000 --> 0:26:35.479 in the you know, every year he's been here, and 0:26:35.520 --> 0:26:37.679 that's kind of I wouldn't say took the tournament by 0:26:37.680 --> 0:26:39.199 the scruff of the neck, but he never gave it 0:26:39.280 --> 0:26:42.360 back when he when he after he hit that shot, 0:26:42.920 --> 0:26:45.720 and so it was you don't see that that often. 0:26:45.880 --> 0:26:50.919 At twelve a two on Sunday, I think, yeah, that 0:26:51.000 --> 0:26:54.439 shot was awesome, it was a it was a great shot. 0:26:55.200 --> 0:26:59.200 It's the whole maturation too, of the golfer. I think, 0:27:00.480 --> 0:27:02.520 you know, there are a lot of pro golfers that 0:27:02.560 --> 0:27:06.440 wouldn't have the wherewithal to ask a legend of the game, 0:27:06.520 --> 0:27:08.680 like Tom Watson, what do you do here? 0:27:09.119 --> 0:27:09.760 Yeah? 0:27:09.800 --> 0:27:12.000 And then there are a lot of golfers that you know, 0:27:12.160 --> 0:27:14.920 might be told that and then like forget about it. 0:27:15.000 --> 0:27:21.320 Like Rory's got this encyclopedic golf brain. He remembers everything, 0:27:22.080 --> 0:27:24.800 he knows the history of the game. One time I 0:27:24.840 --> 0:27:26.800 was having a conversation with him and we were just 0:27:26.840 --> 0:27:29.960 talking about something and we were talking about Monty and 0:27:30.359 --> 0:27:32.840 I said something and goes, Manti never won that tournament. 0:27:32.920 --> 0:27:35.400 And I'm like, oh, I might have gotten mixed up. 0:27:35.720 --> 0:27:37.240 And I was like thinking, I was like, oh, yeah, 0:27:37.320 --> 0:27:39.040 it was this. He was like, yeah, Monty never won 0:27:39.080 --> 0:27:40.960 that he lost to this guy, this guy, this guy, 0:27:41.080 --> 0:27:44.640 this guy like rattled off like eight years of history 0:27:45.000 --> 0:27:48.320 of that tournament and it's like the golf brain to 0:27:48.400 --> 0:27:52.000 do it. The skills and like that golf shot again. 0:27:52.400 --> 0:27:54.840 If you go back to the early part of Rory's career, 0:27:55.720 --> 0:27:59.040 a lot of the criticism of Rory's career not a 0:27:59.080 --> 0:28:04.400 great short iron player, can't take speed off bad wedge player, 0:28:04.520 --> 0:28:11.040 And that was a three quarter absolute perfect, perfectly executed 0:28:11.760 --> 0:28:16.600 soft arm swing nine iron that hit the perfect distance. 0:28:16.880 --> 0:28:20.400 And you know, it's just like that. I guess that's 0:28:20.400 --> 0:28:23.399 what makes golf such a beautiful game, is that you 0:28:23.440 --> 0:28:28.080 can have all the talent, but in that moment it 0:28:28.200 --> 0:28:33.680 required the wherewithal of the information he got from Tom Watson, 0:28:33.720 --> 0:28:36.760 which he probably asked for that he filed away for 0:28:36.800 --> 0:28:40.400 the rest of his career from two thousand and nine 0:28:40.560 --> 0:28:43.240 and then the maturation of his golf game to be 0:28:43.280 --> 0:28:47.040 able to execute is such a highly technical I think 0:28:47.080 --> 0:28:50.640 most guys just get to that tee and pray that 0:28:50.680 --> 0:28:53.760 they have the perfect yardage. But it's a look, you 0:28:53.800 --> 0:28:56.480 got to take speed off a nine iron in that moment. 0:28:57.080 --> 0:29:02.240 When you're not, you're not having a great hitting irons, 0:29:02.520 --> 0:29:05.440 Like when you're taking speed off and you're strugglingly a 0:29:05.440 --> 0:29:08.200 little bit, it is so easy to do exactly what 0:29:08.280 --> 0:29:11.920 he was doing all day Saturday, which is your body 0:29:11.960 --> 0:29:14.440 stops moving, you come over the top, and you pull 0:29:14.480 --> 0:29:16.760 it and you hit it long left. 0:29:16.960 --> 0:29:18.760 He said, I wouldn't have had that. I didn't have 0:29:18.760 --> 0:29:21.840 that shot yesterday Saturday done to your point. You know, 0:29:22.000 --> 0:29:24.560 he came out and said, I couldn't have hit that yesterday. 0:29:26.040 --> 0:29:26.560 Interesting. 0:29:27.520 --> 0:29:28.840 I mean that's where he went and got it. And 0:29:28.840 --> 0:29:32.520 then you know, because it's rory at the Masters, you know, 0:29:33.720 --> 0:29:36.120 he hits like one of the worst dribes you'll see 0:29:36.160 --> 0:29:38.680 on eighteen, like one of his worst. I was wondering, 0:29:38.720 --> 0:29:42.000 like if he's ever had that shot of all the experience, 0:29:42.040 --> 0:29:44.880 experience experience we're talking about, Like, has he ever in 0:29:44.920 --> 0:29:47.120 any circumstance. I doubt he practiced it. 0:29:47.120 --> 0:29:49.320 The wedge on fifteen was scary too. 0:29:50.280 --> 0:29:52.920 I mean that I thought they mixed the pins really 0:29:52.920 --> 0:29:56.040 well today. You know fifteen that's the fattest part of 0:29:56.040 --> 0:29:57.960 that green. That doesn't make it easy. Green fifteen has 0:29:58.000 --> 0:30:03.160 been very firm all all weekend. New were green. I mean, 0:30:03.200 --> 0:30:05.160 that's not it's not to say it's fat, but that's 0:30:05.240 --> 0:30:09.560 that's the fattest part where it gets That was Uh, 0:30:09.840 --> 0:30:12.440 that was a little dicey there. It was a little dicey. 0:30:12.480 --> 0:30:14.880 I was looking from the side hill into the sun, 0:30:15.400 --> 0:30:18.960 like trying to see it. But so it was interesting. 0:30:19.000 --> 0:30:22.400 The whole way round had flashbacks of thirteen last year. 0:30:22.680 --> 0:30:24.160 I was up at the top I was up at 0:30:24.160 --> 0:30:26.600 the top of the grand stand there, just like I 0:30:26.800 --> 0:30:28.560 was last year on thirteen, and they hit it, and 0:30:28.560 --> 0:30:31.880 I'm like, oh god, that's going to get on his horse. 0:30:31.960 --> 0:30:35.280 Gotta go right, go to the whimp ride the horse. 0:30:35.760 --> 0:30:38.280 So then he eighteen. I ended up right and he 0:30:38.360 --> 0:30:40.960 walks up. He kind of does this exhale as he 0:30:41.000 --> 0:30:43.600 gets to his ball and the pine straw and like 0:30:43.800 --> 0:30:45.560 shakes his head, and it was kind of like, I 0:30:45.680 --> 0:30:48.080 gotta do like one more. I mean five is it's 0:30:48.160 --> 0:30:50.280 nice to know you need five only and six is 0:30:50.320 --> 0:30:50.840 a playoff. 0:30:51.200 --> 0:30:53.040 I mean it went so far right. It was an 0:30:53.040 --> 0:30:56.640 advantage because he could hit the big sweeping draw. Yes. Yeah, 0:30:57.120 --> 0:30:58.880 Like there was so much crowd in the way. He's like, 0:30:58.920 --> 0:31:02.600 you got to get out. He's going right, you come back, kids, 0:31:02.680 --> 0:31:05.000 And uh, I walked by it. I walked by it, 0:31:05.040 --> 0:31:08.960 and I was looking through the trees and uh, I'm 0:31:09.000 --> 0:31:11.400 flicking through the trees. I'm like, oh, there's nothing there. 0:31:11.640 --> 0:31:14.840 I was with Brentley. Yeah, ironically it was funny Brentley. Uh, 0:31:14.960 --> 0:31:18.520 Brentley got a hamstring camp cramp there. Didn't know if 0:31:18.560 --> 0:31:19.680 he was going to make it roll. 0:31:19.680 --> 0:31:22.239 Down the hill. He might be quiet, might have been 0:31:23.200 --> 0:31:23.479 right now. 0:31:23.560 --> 0:31:27.000 You might have the questionable time for his media lottery 0:31:27.040 --> 0:31:31.400 around it. But anyways, Brentley's like, he's gonna chip it 0:31:31.440 --> 0:31:33.800 through the trees. I'm like, the play is up here. 0:31:33.960 --> 0:31:36.520 He's got to hit the big hug it was. 0:31:37.200 --> 0:31:40.240 I just exhaled, and he talks to Harry goes it's 0:31:40.240 --> 0:31:42.240 gonna come out a little spinnier because it's from the 0:31:42.320 --> 0:31:46.040 pine straw. And just you know, as he was over 0:31:46.120 --> 0:31:49.200 the ball, this giant plume of cigar smoke enveloped him. 0:31:49.200 --> 0:31:50.800 I thought he was going to back off the ball 0:31:50.920 --> 0:31:53.440 like I would have, like it had to have. It 0:31:53.600 --> 0:31:56.680 was some yahoo. Jimoke was right there. 0:31:57.400 --> 0:32:00.280 What an idiot, and like just puffed and it went 0:32:00.480 --> 0:32:03.280 directly up the hill from the crowd, like went right. 0:32:03.320 --> 0:32:04.920 I don't know if he noticed it. I couldn't have 0:32:05.000 --> 0:32:06.960 been I wouldn't have been able to do it. 0:32:07.040 --> 0:32:09.120 Like it just went right over him as he's over 0:32:09.160 --> 0:32:11.560 the balls, like, oh my god, he's got a back off, 0:32:12.080 --> 0:32:14.000 and then he hits it. You know, he planned it out. 0:32:14.080 --> 0:32:16.360 It just dumps into the bunker and makes his five, 0:32:16.480 --> 0:32:20.800 takes his medicine just all the way. Just had to 0:32:20.880 --> 0:32:23.120 ride it all the way in, just with six maybe 0:32:23.200 --> 0:32:25.880 in play there and the playoff with Scheffler and Rose 0:32:25.920 --> 0:32:27.640 would have been would have been an interesting playoff. But 0:32:27.760 --> 0:32:29.000 you know, he gets it done. 0:32:29.040 --> 0:32:32.080 I mean, just think about he's got this two shot lead. 0:32:32.560 --> 0:32:35.920 Sixteen's generally like a birdie hole with that whole location. 0:32:36.800 --> 0:32:40.600 You know, he has past the he has this delicate putt. 0:32:40.680 --> 0:32:44.120 That was an incredible putt he hit there eighteen from No. 0:32:44.280 --> 0:32:47.120 Six on sixteen from off the green, Yeah, and then 0:32:47.240 --> 0:32:50.320 seventeen that I think that was actually like kind of 0:32:50.360 --> 0:32:52.440 a good spot to leave it. I was wondering that 0:32:52.680 --> 0:32:55.240 because he started walking after it. Yeah, and like I 0:32:55.720 --> 0:32:58.880 think he knew he left he missed a good spot there. Yeah, 0:32:59.040 --> 0:33:02.440 and he was chipping right up the hill. It wasn't 0:33:02.480 --> 0:33:05.840 an easy shot by any means, But that shot on 0:33:06.120 --> 0:33:10.160 seventeen is so hard, like your natural reaction is to 0:33:10.280 --> 0:33:13.560 hit it left there, and I I don't know if 0:33:13.960 --> 0:33:17.160 if this is what he if he was purposely trying 0:33:17.200 --> 0:33:19.480 to miss it over there. The natural thought is that, 0:33:19.960 --> 0:33:23.400 but that that green screams away even though it doesn't 0:33:23.520 --> 0:33:25.680 look like it. It looks like you're chipping up hill, 0:33:25.800 --> 0:33:29.640 but it's actually going away. And that the chippy left himself. 0:33:30.440 --> 0:33:34.560 I mean, he's so good at that little and this 0:33:34.760 --> 0:33:36.760 is just a shot that he has that I don't 0:33:36.800 --> 0:33:39.120 see other people a lot of other players. I see 0:33:39.120 --> 0:33:41.880 Scotty hit this shot at Augusta and maybe it's just 0:33:42.000 --> 0:33:44.840 like kind of a shot that some guys have in 0:33:44.880 --> 0:33:48.160 Augusta that just unlocks things. He hit that on He 0:33:48.280 --> 0:33:54.000 hit the same shot on six on Saturday or Friday. 0:33:54.320 --> 0:33:57.880 But it's this like he hits that low sixty degree 0:33:58.400 --> 0:34:01.360 that hits into like the frit and pops it and 0:34:01.440 --> 0:34:04.720 then it stops him. And Scotty do that so well there. 0:34:04.800 --> 0:34:07.360 But that's chip on seventeen. I mean, he made it 0:34:07.480 --> 0:34:08.760 so difficult on himself. 0:34:08.800 --> 0:34:10.719 Again, he called that harder than a look. But I 0:34:10.800 --> 0:34:12.600 do think he thought he missed it in the right 0:34:12.680 --> 0:34:16.480 spot there on seventeen. You know, all things considered it's 0:34:16.840 --> 0:34:18.040 it was a great chip. 0:34:18.160 --> 0:34:18.640 Yeah, he did. 0:34:18.760 --> 0:34:20.839 Short game had to work, short game had to work 0:34:20.880 --> 0:34:21.480 all the way. 0:34:21.360 --> 0:34:24.920 In all right, I mean, yeah you think. I mean 0:34:25.080 --> 0:34:28.719 just the way golf always works is that you're presented 0:34:29.680 --> 0:34:33.840 with the things like you come down the stretch, the 0:34:33.960 --> 0:34:37.080 pressure ramps up, and like the the things that you're 0:34:37.200 --> 0:34:42.040 just like not feeling are going to get exposed. And 0:34:42.160 --> 0:34:46.240 that the Teeter Green game got exposed the last three holes, 0:34:47.880 --> 0:34:50.120 and the short game putting bailed him out, which he 0:34:50.280 --> 0:34:52.920 you know, he said was an a this week. Do 0:34:53.000 --> 0:34:56.319 you think about Cam Young coming down coming down all 0:34:56.840 --> 0:35:00.640 really like the whole day? How were Young? It's been 0:35:00.680 --> 0:35:03.200 a great putter for the last year, but the Achilles 0:35:03.239 --> 0:35:05.600 heel has always been the putter, and the putter just 0:35:05.840 --> 0:35:11.319 left him on Sunday, justin Rose his struggles this week 0:35:11.920 --> 0:35:16.120 and what we're with the putter. The putter kind of 0:35:16.200 --> 0:35:18.880 let him down. Three three putt at thirteen. 0:35:19.040 --> 0:35:21.879 That was kind of like a real punch, thank god, 0:35:21.960 --> 0:35:25.200 especially after you know, yeah, after eleven. 0:35:26.160 --> 0:35:28.840 It wasn't it was was not a three putt for 0:35:28.960 --> 0:35:29.720 Cam at thirteen. 0:35:32.719 --> 0:35:38.200 Camps Potter h Rory mentioned after his round that he 0:35:39.360 --> 0:35:43.040 realized the Grand Slam is not the destination last year, 0:35:43.440 --> 0:35:46.439 and I would I would put that there were three, 0:35:46.560 --> 0:35:49.680 as you know, three acts in his career right now. 0:35:49.840 --> 0:35:53.800 There's obviously the immediate spoils right from to twenty fourteen. 0:35:54.560 --> 0:35:58.080 Then there was the drought where quite frankly, he was 0:35:58.239 --> 0:36:01.239 never outside of you know, he was always felt like 0:36:01.320 --> 0:36:03.719 one of the top five players in the world. There 0:36:03.760 --> 0:36:06.160 were some dry years there where the wedges were, you know, 0:36:06.800 --> 0:36:10.160 going boom out of here. But he's still maintained. He's 0:36:10.200 --> 0:36:13.600 still winning FedEx Cups, and he was a top ten 0:36:13.640 --> 0:36:14.359 player in the world. 0:36:14.640 --> 0:36:18.279 He's basically been a top ten player without you know, 0:36:18.360 --> 0:36:22.440 there's been maybe two periods since twenty ten. 0:36:23.360 --> 0:36:25.880 So that was act too, like a great player, not 0:36:26.000 --> 0:36:28.400 getting it done at the majors, but still like clearly 0:36:28.520 --> 0:36:31.680 like the ambassador of an ambassador of the game. I 0:36:31.800 --> 0:36:34.760 think we're in act three now, where we are running 0:36:34.920 --> 0:36:38.359 up the resume. I have fully formed a golfer. All 0:36:38.440 --> 0:36:40.399 the physical tools are there. I'm not over the hill 0:36:40.480 --> 0:36:42.759 physically or with my game at all. He's still the 0:36:42.880 --> 0:36:48.120 longest and and you know he's he's at six now, 0:36:48.320 --> 0:36:51.200 he's passed Brooks. I'll remember that full swing where he 0:36:51.280 --> 0:36:53.520 sits in the locker room. I think it was okill 0:36:54.120 --> 0:36:56.120 and he's like, like it was one of the better, 0:36:56.239 --> 0:36:58.040 more insightful parts of Full Swing. 0:36:58.080 --> 0:37:00.759 He's like, he's got the five be meet to five. 0:37:00.840 --> 0:37:03.560 There's a there's a player in my era, in my 0:37:03.760 --> 0:37:07.880 contemporary that has more than me. And you know, at 0:37:07.920 --> 0:37:10.400 that point he's at sitting on almost ten years without 0:37:10.480 --> 0:37:14.440 one and you know obviously matches him. Last year, he 0:37:14.520 --> 0:37:18.080 passes him. This year he ties Philly ties. Surnick fell though, 0:37:18.440 --> 0:37:21.759 who I was going to give thirst bucket of the 0:37:21.880 --> 0:37:23.719 Year award, a first spucket of the Day award, but 0:37:23.800 --> 0:37:26.520 then he gave me time like a proper, proper night, 0:37:26.800 --> 0:37:30.160 sir Nick, and said, I go, what did you need this? 0:37:30.520 --> 0:37:33.520 I I witnessed this happening. It was it was too 0:37:34.760 --> 0:37:40.319 too large man walking try first tride together. I'm certain Nick, 0:37:40.480 --> 0:37:42.879 someone I wouldn't I wouldn't want to. I wouldn't want 0:37:42.920 --> 0:37:45.360 to have him rushing off the edge of battle on 0:37:45.400 --> 0:37:48.160 the outside. Yeah, it was good walking with it. But 0:37:48.320 --> 0:37:50.960 he jumped in as Rory's rock walking from Butler Cabin, 0:37:51.080 --> 0:37:53.080 which was cool. I mean, like to the two of 0:37:53.120 --> 0:37:55.360 the best euros of all time and the back to 0:37:55.440 --> 0:37:58.280 back euros at the Masters and six time Ajor winners. 0:37:58.560 --> 0:38:00.640 I asked Snick, like, what did you talk to worry about. 0:38:00.840 --> 0:38:02.759 He goes, what you tell me, says I told him, 0:38:02.800 --> 0:38:05.319 he's effing amazing. So what did he say? He said, 0:38:05.400 --> 0:38:07.759 twelve is the whole deal. Twelve was the whole key. 0:38:08.480 --> 0:38:11.080 Golden Bell was the hole where he won the Masters, 0:38:11.080 --> 0:38:14.279 and it was you know, he's now matched with Sir 0:38:14.440 --> 0:38:21.480 Nick Faldough. How many Majors does he get? So it 0:38:21.520 --> 0:38:23.799 seems like he's motivated. This is not the destination. 0:38:24.080 --> 0:38:27.480 So there's eleven players in the history of golf with 0:38:27.640 --> 0:38:34.480 more major championships Jack Tiger, Hagan at eleven, Hogan Player 0:38:34.520 --> 0:38:39.200 at nine, Watson at eight, Varden at seven, Jones at seven, 0:38:39.400 --> 0:38:42.960 Sarah's and at seven, Snead at seven, Arnold Palmer at seven, 0:38:43.040 --> 0:38:46.360 and then the group of six is Faldo, Mickelson, Trevino. 0:38:49.280 --> 0:38:53.640 I you know, I you know, you get to this point. 0:38:56.360 --> 0:38:59.360 It seems, as he said in his pre tournament press conference, 0:38:59.440 --> 0:39:02.280 this is the eiest one for me. Now that's crazy. 0:39:02.960 --> 0:39:06.960 It's at the same course. He's unlocked the course I was, 0:39:07.760 --> 0:39:10.120 you know, this weekend had hit a snag, but it 0:39:10.239 --> 0:39:12.680 felt like the first two days, given how he hit 0:39:12.760 --> 0:39:15.800 the golf ball, it felt like he's gotten to the 0:39:15.880 --> 0:39:18.200 point where like you go to the you play the 0:39:18.280 --> 0:39:20.520 video game over and over again, and you get to 0:39:20.640 --> 0:39:25.000 the final boss and it kills you every time, you know, 0:39:25.239 --> 0:39:27.719 and you can't get past the final boss. And then 0:39:27.800 --> 0:39:29.879 one day you figure out how to how to beat 0:39:29.920 --> 0:39:32.320 the boss and it's like, oh, I just have to 0:39:32.400 --> 0:39:36.680 go left left ab and I got it, and that's 0:39:36.719 --> 0:39:38.920 the move to beat him. And he like figured it 0:39:39.000 --> 0:39:42.400 out and and so you know, I think if you 0:39:42.560 --> 0:39:47.920 told Rory, you know, two years ago, or you tell 0:39:48.000 --> 0:39:52.120 him March of last year, this is where you're gonna 0:39:52.400 --> 0:39:55.000 hit the ball all week, he would have been I 0:39:55.120 --> 0:39:57.839 have no clue. I have no way. There's no way 0:39:58.320 --> 0:40:00.359 I'm going to win the Masters. I mean he hit 0:40:00.640 --> 0:40:02.880 what did he hit? How many fairways did he hit 0:40:03.000 --> 0:40:06.520 on par fives two or three? He hit eight today? 0:40:06.800 --> 0:40:11.000 He had number eight today he hit eighteen two. So 0:40:11.120 --> 0:40:15.000 he hit three fairways. He hit three of sixteen on 0:40:15.400 --> 0:40:17.799 par five fairways for the week, and he won. 0:40:18.040 --> 0:40:20.000 He did all his work on the par five still, 0:40:20.239 --> 0:40:22.520 so he was even on the threes, which is a 0:40:22.560 --> 0:40:25.560 good score. Even on the threes, two on the fours, 0:40:26.120 --> 0:40:28.440 and ten under on the par five and. 0:40:28.520 --> 0:40:33.080 He didn't hit He was never hitting them in two, right, right, 0:40:33.239 --> 0:40:36.480 right right. He had fifteen yesterday and he had eight 0:40:36.920 --> 0:40:39.480 today and those are the only greens that he hit 0:40:39.560 --> 0:40:39.839 in two. 0:40:40.239 --> 0:40:41.239 What would you grade his? 0:40:41.400 --> 0:40:45.279 Like? This is insane. He's got a green jack his 0:40:45.360 --> 0:40:48.320 golf game. It was a be He chipped and putted 0:40:48.400 --> 0:40:52.080 his ass off. His chipping was so good. Some of 0:40:52.120 --> 0:40:54.439 the places he got up and down from this week 0:40:54.600 --> 0:40:57.920 were banana land places. You look at his like strokes 0:40:57.960 --> 0:41:00.799 gained and that doesn't tell the story in MI, but like, well, 0:41:00.840 --> 0:41:02.200 the data tells us everything. 0:41:02.400 --> 0:41:05.840 You know, there's no persons of the data. Around the 0:41:05.880 --> 0:41:07.759 green was the highest for sure. But none of this 0:41:08.040 --> 0:41:11.080 was exceptional. Was it like, oh, you're gained four shots 0:41:11.120 --> 0:41:14.319 off the te today or off the t this week? 0:41:14.360 --> 0:41:18.120 Our approached nothing. It was all kind of slightly above average, 0:41:18.280 --> 0:41:21.440 all slightly above average, nothing dominant, And is around the 0:41:21.480 --> 0:41:22.919 green really saved him? It wasn't. 0:41:23.440 --> 0:41:27.040 So I think I think you put the majors. Majors 0:41:27.080 --> 0:41:30.000 are hard, and I've refused its gonna be a favorite aronomic. 0:41:30.160 --> 0:41:32.800 I refuse to allow myself to be a prisoner of 0:41:32.880 --> 0:41:35.680 the moment, and and to say the floodgates are open. 0:41:36.160 --> 0:41:39.760 I'm saying that the over under seven and a half. Okay, 0:41:40.080 --> 0:41:42.600 what do you think seven and a half total masters, 0:41:42.680 --> 0:41:49.080 total major Peach, what would you say? 0:41:51.719 --> 0:41:51.959 Sure? 0:41:56.600 --> 0:41:59.879 Eight seems fine. PJ says, where's your. 0:41:59.840 --> 0:42:02.960 My I've been on three all week? But Kvb's on three? 0:42:03.239 --> 0:42:08.279 Okay, all right, producer PG eight. I think I'm gonna 0:42:08.320 --> 0:42:13.840 go over. Feels like he's man, feels like he's pretty 0:42:13.880 --> 0:42:16.960 motivated to run it up. It's like, you're not gonna 0:42:16.960 --> 0:42:19.000 see me go into this, Like how do I figure 0:42:19.000 --> 0:42:22.439 out how to come down from Everest this year thing? 0:42:22.880 --> 0:42:25.560 Maybe maybe it's easier said than done now that he's 0:42:25.760 --> 0:42:28.960 that he's won, But I think I think Shinnecock's a 0:42:29.000 --> 0:42:31.960 big thing for him. I think ironimic plays into his 0:42:32.040 --> 0:42:34.200 hands nicely, as almost every PGA does. 0:42:34.400 --> 0:42:36.240 You have to think the open at the old Course 0:42:36.360 --> 0:42:40.360 next year is like highlighted and then but that almost 0:42:40.440 --> 0:42:42.320 what feels like one of those masters he's like I 0:42:42.360 --> 0:42:44.279 almost like don't want to touch that cause he's too 0:42:45.040 --> 0:42:47.520 zeroed in on those, right. I don't know, I don't 0:42:47.560 --> 0:42:50.480 I think all this stuff you know what it is 0:42:50.719 --> 0:42:55.600 is Golf's like a world of like of pictures in 0:42:55.719 --> 0:42:58.880 your in your mind, and he created all these like 0:42:59.000 --> 0:43:02.760 great movies for himself early in his career at major 0:43:02.840 --> 0:43:06.360 championships where he's blown the field out. And then he 0:43:06.480 --> 0:43:09.120 had this era where he was pretty bad at majors 0:43:09.160 --> 0:43:12.200 for his standards obviously for a number of years, and 0:43:12.960 --> 0:43:15.520 I think it created a lot of scar tissue. Then 0:43:15.560 --> 0:43:19.600 he has this phase of close calls where yeah, they're 0:43:19.640 --> 0:43:23.279 gut wrenching losses, but he's in in the fight, you know, 0:43:23.520 --> 0:43:27.560 and you can take away if I keep giving myself chances, 0:43:27.680 --> 0:43:30.279 one of these is gonna get knocked down. And I 0:43:30.320 --> 0:43:33.959 think he's back into the mold of like I'm making 0:43:34.080 --> 0:43:37.719 great movies at majors again, even to the to the 0:43:37.840 --> 0:43:40.840 sense of like port Rush last year I think was 0:43:40.920 --> 0:43:44.120 like he came out of it positively. But this one, 0:43:44.520 --> 0:43:47.879 this one's got to feel better. It doesn't feel better 0:43:47.960 --> 0:43:51.000 than last year because of all the weight of last year. 0:43:51.800 --> 0:43:54.040 I think you walk out of this one feeling more 0:43:54.120 --> 0:43:57.560 confident than ever because you did it without your without 0:43:57.600 --> 0:44:02.000 your a game. Yeah, like did it without what everybody 0:44:02.040 --> 0:44:05.040 would say if you said Rory won this week, you'd 0:44:05.080 --> 0:44:08.520 be like, oh, he just he just drove drove the 0:44:08.560 --> 0:44:11.560 shit out of the golf ball, and and he gave 0:44:11.680 --> 0:44:14.879 himself so many opportunities because of how well he drove 0:44:14.960 --> 0:44:18.640 the ball. Instead, it's like he drove the ball bad 0:44:19.200 --> 0:44:24.040 by his standards and everything else, his course management, his 0:44:24.280 --> 0:44:27.320 mental game, and is in his short game, and putting 0:44:27.360 --> 0:44:27.960 bailed him out. 0:44:29.000 --> 0:44:32.240 I think the wins at the Masters, like it frees 0:44:32.280 --> 0:44:35.320 him up. Obviously with this like once House of Horrors, 0:44:35.400 --> 0:44:37.960 that was Augusta, but like it frees him up the 0:44:38.000 --> 0:44:40.600 next time he faces a Pinehurst situation, right, Like it 0:44:40.719 --> 0:44:42.640 frees him up, like next time he's in the lead 0:44:42.680 --> 0:44:45.200 at a at a US Open or a PGA or whatever, 0:44:45.320 --> 0:44:48.399 like he's that's a different dynamic too, because it had 0:44:48.480 --> 0:44:51.279 been ten years. It had been so long, so I 0:44:51.719 --> 0:44:54.400 just it feels like he's he's dialing. I would go 0:44:54.560 --> 0:44:56.759 over seven and a half. I know you're trying to 0:44:56.840 --> 0:44:59.680 be cautiously not a prisoner of the moment. I think 0:44:59.760 --> 0:45:06.359 that's there. I feel like he's probably got like ten 0:45:06.560 --> 0:45:11.439 years of masters, yeah, like real master chances maybe more. 0:45:11.560 --> 0:45:15.120 I mean I ten you that's a lot and five 0:45:15.360 --> 0:45:19.279 minimum for all the others. That seems like a lot 0:45:19.360 --> 0:45:21.320 of chances to get one and a half. 0:45:22.040 --> 0:45:27.120 Side note, is the biggest loser today the PGA Tour 0:45:27.560 --> 0:45:30.759 because Rory felt like he was the most prepared for 0:45:30.880 --> 0:45:33.440 a major and he took three weeks off before it. 0:45:35.000 --> 0:45:36.160 It slipped under the radar. 0:45:36.280 --> 0:45:38.719 But like it's like, oh yeah, I'm not gonna take 0:45:38.719 --> 0:45:41.640 a couple of weeks off like hilton Head just nowhere, 0:45:41.840 --> 0:45:45.360 no chance, no chance, never was going to be a chance, 0:45:45.520 --> 0:45:48.680 Like tough scene for the signature at hilton Head. 0:45:49.080 --> 0:45:51.640 I think I think he's kind of entering this era 0:45:54.120 --> 0:45:57.399 a little bit earlier, where you know the great man 0:45:57.640 --> 0:46:00.480 Justin Rose, who finished you know, a couple back. 0:46:02.000 --> 0:46:02.400 But he. 0:46:04.280 --> 0:46:09.040 This, he's entered this era almost where you know Justin Rose. 0:46:09.160 --> 0:46:12.040 Everything he's building his game is around the majors, and 0:46:12.160 --> 0:46:16.399 I foresee as Rory hits the next three to five 0:46:16.480 --> 0:46:20.239 years of his career, he will be doing everything to 0:46:20.480 --> 0:46:24.400 build his life around the four major championships and everything 0:46:24.440 --> 0:46:28.560 else will take a back seat. I you know what's 0:46:28.600 --> 0:46:34.560 a comfyback seat? Oh my god, go ahead, great job. 0:46:34.680 --> 0:46:37.960 I mean you just you win. You win today. I 0:46:38.200 --> 0:46:40.800 love my segues, But that was a good that was 0:46:40.880 --> 0:46:41.399 a good thing. 0:46:41.520 --> 0:46:44.040 If you're a hild in the head, if you're going 0:46:44.120 --> 0:46:45.879 to take a back seat. If you're going to take 0:46:45.920 --> 0:46:48.919 a back seat, I would recommend taking the back seat 0:46:49.120 --> 0:46:52.279 in the In the Mercedes Benz gls which PJ haspent 0:46:52.440 --> 0:46:55.720 riding again all week long, they got two bucket seats 0:46:55.760 --> 0:46:59.160 back testify to the back he did they have like 0:46:59.280 --> 0:47:03.560 the the motorized controls, Like I mean, I think about 0:47:03.680 --> 0:47:07.319 like my childhood right in the bucket seat, bucket seat 0:47:07.400 --> 0:47:09.759 or a bench seat of a mini van or the 0:47:09.840 --> 0:47:15.360 station way back backwards. Kids these days, if you have 0:47:15.480 --> 0:47:18.680 a Mercedes Bend gls have it way too good because 0:47:18.680 --> 0:47:21.359 they got heated seats back there, they're bucket seats. There's 0:47:21.440 --> 0:47:26.239 plenty of space. All of the Mercedes Benz SUVs are wonderful. 0:47:26.440 --> 0:47:28.840 Whether you're looking for a smaller one, check out the 0:47:28.920 --> 0:47:31.719 g LB, the g LC those are kind of your 0:47:31.800 --> 0:47:34.800 more midsized SUVs, and then scale up to the g 0:47:35.040 --> 0:47:37.879 L E.

Thanks to Mercedes 0:48:07.040 --> 0:48:11.600 Benz for their support of Friday Golf the Shotgun Start Podcast. 0:48:11.680 --> 0:48:14.120 It's been it's been a wonderful week here in Augusta 0:48:14.880 --> 0:48:17.439 with their support, and you know, they're a big reason 0:48:17.480 --> 0:48:18.880 why we're able to get down here for FY the 0:48:18.960 --> 0:48:23.160 coverage across the board, written, audio, social, the whole way 0:48:23.719 --> 0:48:25.480 due to them. The photos from Cameron. 0:48:26.600 --> 0:48:28.200 Rory might not have had his a game, but that 0:48:28.400 --> 0:48:32.919 segue was a game segue, a game segue pretty good. 0:48:33.600 --> 0:48:35.080 Where do you want to who would you like to 0:48:35.200 --> 0:48:37.319 go to? Are we done with r We could talk 0:48:37.400 --> 0:48:39.879 more about Rory. Well, we're gonna have the boy. We're 0:48:39.880 --> 0:48:42.400 gonna have the boys come in. We're gonna have KBV 0:48:42.600 --> 0:48:44.720 come in in a second. 0:48:45.160 --> 0:48:48.280 The most emotional part, it was a very different Masters 0:48:48.360 --> 0:48:52.200 like the crowd on eighteen. He hit it to two inches, 0:48:52.280 --> 0:48:54.719 didn't know what to do. It was like this sort 0:48:54.760 --> 0:48:58.320 of I don't want to say it was like deflating 0:48:58.400 --> 0:49:01.080 it anyway. It just wasn't the really use of last year. 0:49:01.160 --> 0:49:03.960 And then the I'm not saying it was just the 0:49:04.000 --> 0:49:06.719 way it went down though, the sequencing. Certainly the most 0:49:06.719 --> 0:49:08.920 emotional the part was having his mom. 0:49:09.400 --> 0:49:11.839 And dad there, who were not there last year. 0:49:11.920 --> 0:49:14.120 He said they didn't want to come because they thought 0:49:14.200 --> 0:49:17.279 maybe one, which is a feels like an I were saying, 0:49:17.320 --> 0:49:19.680 could totally something I would subscribe to. Is like, well 0:49:19.719 --> 0:49:21.560 you won when I wasn't there, I'm not coming, We're 0:49:21.600 --> 0:49:23.600 not coming. He's like, I had to convince him to come, 0:49:23.640 --> 0:49:26.000 and they did and they got one. Uh saw his 0:49:26.400 --> 0:49:28.520 dad for many He's like, yeah, I figured i'd come 0:49:28.600 --> 0:49:32.480 and get one, you know, while I was here. That 0:49:32.680 --> 0:49:35.800 was certainly the most meaningful aspect I would think of 0:49:35.920 --> 0:49:37.080 this this masters. 0:49:37.320 --> 0:49:40.640 I mean, I think there's another aspect and we could 0:49:40.680 --> 0:49:43.560 talk about this a little bit later. Emphatically the best 0:49:43.600 --> 0:49:48.120 European golfer of all time emphatically, I think so I 0:49:48.120 --> 0:49:51.320 would agree with you. The other contenders would be Sevvy 0:49:51.400 --> 0:49:54.759 by Asteros and Nick Felt. Nick Faldough, I think you 0:49:54.840 --> 0:50:00.520 know the whole totality, the longevity, and you know, knowing 0:50:00.600 --> 0:50:05.840 you've got you've got probably seven really good years in 0:50:05.960 --> 0:50:10.279 the tank. Left turns thirty seven next month. Yeah, I 0:50:10.320 --> 0:50:13.440 think I think you've got You look at that, he's 0:50:13.920 --> 0:50:17.960 he's emphatically the best European golfer of all time. And 0:50:18.080 --> 0:50:21.200 then you start to look at this list. Man, you 0:50:21.280 --> 0:50:23.600 start to look at the major list, and it's like, okay, 0:50:24.200 --> 0:50:29.160 I said a very you know, conservative over under. But 0:50:29.239 --> 0:50:32.920 if he gets to nine, if he gets to nine majors, 0:50:33.320 --> 0:50:35.680 the only people ahead of him in the game, and 0:50:35.760 --> 0:50:40.520 he's doing it in a very competitive era are Jack 0:50:40.880 --> 0:50:43.840 Tiger and Walter Hagen are the only ones that have 0:50:44.000 --> 0:50:45.040 more majors than him. 0:50:45.440 --> 0:50:49.360 Yeah, I think he's on, like like he the Watson 0:50:49.520 --> 0:50:53.480 and maybe Gary player eyesight, you know, in the trajectory 0:50:53.560 --> 0:50:55.160 at this point, and. 0:50:55.239 --> 0:50:59.359 You think about the way, ironically, the crazy thing about 0:50:59.400 --> 0:51:02.520 his career was like he's gone from like where he's 0:51:02.560 --> 0:51:05.240 like a PGA hunter and it's like, Okay, the PGA 0:51:05.400 --> 0:51:08.759 is the best major for him? Is the PGA this 0:51:09.160 --> 0:51:10.600 major that sets up the worst for. 0:51:10.680 --> 0:51:14.600 Him now because it condenses people can catch his separating 0:51:14.680 --> 0:51:21.000 powers more easily. I think another motivating factor, not a 0:51:21.120 --> 0:51:23.239 motivating I think it would be sweet. I don't want 0:51:23.239 --> 0:51:25.399 to I'm not in his head. I think it would 0:51:25.400 --> 0:51:28.480 be nice for him, probably personally to pass Phil Mickelson. 0:51:28.520 --> 0:51:31.799 I think that would be like, you know, another modern great. 0:51:31.920 --> 0:51:34.759 I think he's probably happy that hopefully Phil will be 0:51:34.800 --> 0:51:36.719 able to be at the Champions there next year, that 0:51:36.840 --> 0:51:39.359 he'll be hosting. I think he, you know, wanted them, 0:51:39.760 --> 0:51:41.719 wanted him and Tiger there this year, and now I'll 0:51:41.719 --> 0:51:42.800 get another chance at it. 0:51:42.840 --> 0:51:43.759 Who knows what may. 0:51:43.680 --> 0:51:45.600 Happen last year, but I think I think it'd be 0:51:45.800 --> 0:51:48.440 you know, passing Phil would be meaningful to him. 0:51:48.560 --> 0:51:50.520 I mean, I think there's some motivation too with what 0:51:50.640 --> 0:51:54.759 Scotty's done. Yeah, I mean Scotty here in a minute, 0:51:57.239 --> 0:52:00.440 you know, like he Scotty's sitting there at or now, 0:52:00.719 --> 0:52:03.319 you know, getting that extra major out out ahead of him. 0:52:03.360 --> 0:52:05.480 But you know, he has to feel like I think 0:52:05.640 --> 0:52:10.560 there's probably a lot of him, especially you know, the 0:52:10.760 --> 0:52:12.880 end of last year. It's like, God, this guy's barreling 0:52:12.960 --> 0:52:13.400 down on me. 0:52:13.880 --> 0:52:16.880 And I don't want to say probably, but certainly a 0:52:17.000 --> 0:52:18.680 very good candidate to join the. 0:52:18.719 --> 0:52:23.080 Slam Club unless he stops him. He's the USO. Well 0:52:23.200 --> 0:52:27.440 maybe this year, but yeah, you know, we didn't have time. Candidly, 0:52:27.640 --> 0:52:30.040 we didn't have time to make our our storylines nobody 0:52:30.160 --> 0:52:32.600 talked talked about. But yeah, it would bring us to 0:52:32.840 --> 0:52:37.399 a storyline nobody that nobody's talking about. I heard there's 0:52:37.480 --> 0:52:41.800 public outcry about about the police, the police force. What happened. 0:52:42.200 --> 0:52:47.000 They couldn't they couldn't bring the racketeer in case home, 0:52:47.600 --> 0:52:51.239 a repeat repeat offender, a menace to society, menace to 0:52:51.320 --> 0:52:55.360 the fair police. Ry McElroy skirts away for you know, 0:52:55.680 --> 0:52:59.879 slips through the hands of Sheriff Scottie and Deputy Sad. 0:53:00.000 --> 0:53:02.880 I mean, I'll go even further. I think Sam Birds 0:53:02.960 --> 0:53:08.759 arrested the wrong irishman today. He just completely he he 0:53:08.920 --> 0:53:11.080 was like, oh he's gotten k accent and just went 0:53:11.200 --> 0:53:13.359 after him and threw him in the brink, I mean 0:53:13.640 --> 0:53:16.719 immediately and thought he got his guy. 0:53:17.600 --> 0:53:20.120 Look, it was a complicated day of figuring out where 0:53:20.160 --> 0:53:22.920 to go. It was nice of nice of Sam and 0:53:23.000 --> 0:53:25.719 Shane to excuse themselves from the proceedings. At least there 0:53:25.760 --> 0:53:29.680 was one less like group. We had to toggle between Rory. 0:53:29.760 --> 0:53:32.440 I mean Rory was I mean the man crimes against fairness, 0:53:32.480 --> 0:53:34.160 all the way to the eighteenth where he's you know, 0:53:34.440 --> 0:53:36.520 so far right, he's going up in the round. 0:53:36.760 --> 0:53:40.560 Scotty. If Scotty went home every night, I could see 0:53:40.560 --> 0:53:43.279 Scotty doing this, going home every night and watch the 0:53:43.360 --> 0:53:47.680 shot by shots of Rory. He's he's always not come on. 0:53:47.920 --> 0:53:50.080 He would have seen a lot of petty theft, a 0:53:50.160 --> 0:53:51.400 lot of petty theft. 0:53:51.200 --> 0:53:53.359 We're gonna get. He said it wasn't equal. He said 0:53:53.400 --> 0:53:56.080 the conditions weren't equal. The birdies that were available on 0:53:56.200 --> 0:53:59.160 Friday afternoon worked for him on Thursday afternoon. 0:53:59.680 --> 0:54:02.560 Just I yeah, he went out there and said it. 0:54:02.840 --> 0:54:05.799 I'd like to let's plasn't been a rare It's been 0:54:05.840 --> 0:54:09.160 a real rare failure of the police department in recent 0:54:09.360 --> 0:54:13.440 recent years, Golf's police department. Police couldn't get the couldn't 0:54:13.440 --> 0:54:14.920 get the offender and cuffs. 0:54:16.840 --> 0:54:19.160 Uh should we go to cam Where do you want 0:54:19.160 --> 0:54:21.040 to go next? I was gonna talk about Cameron Young 0:54:21.239 --> 0:54:25.080 for a minute. He got a lot of good breaks 0:54:26.200 --> 0:54:28.800 off of trees. He got it off of three again, 0:54:29.680 --> 0:54:33.120 kind of the the matumba block into the black into play. 0:54:33.239 --> 0:54:35.239 He got it a bunch, you know, on Saturday at 0:54:36.200 --> 0:54:42.080 seventeen and thirteen amazing, like par save at five and 0:54:42.200 --> 0:54:45.239 then just like was was shaky from there on out 0:54:45.360 --> 0:54:48.760 after after five was really quite shaky, I thought. 0:54:49.960 --> 0:54:53.440 You know, I think he handled the moment pretty well totally. 0:54:54.120 --> 0:54:58.280 Was he definitely didn't like just blow up or gag away. 0:54:58.560 --> 0:54:58.920 He was in. 0:54:59.040 --> 0:55:01.120 It was scary. He's such a guy that went out 0:55:02.520 --> 0:55:07.600 first nine of the tournament shot forty and then he 0:55:07.760 --> 0:55:11.480 comes back and he's he's leading leading the tournament on 0:55:11.600 --> 0:55:15.400 the on the you know, on the first nine of Sunday, 0:55:15.440 --> 0:55:19.359 and really like I think he played Teeter Green well 0:55:19.480 --> 0:55:21.680 enough on the on the back nine to win this thing. 0:55:22.640 --> 0:55:25.880 He just didn't make any putts. Yeah, like he he 0:55:26.040 --> 0:55:29.120 hit the shots he needed to hit, you know, you 0:55:29.200 --> 0:55:32.600 think about he had a really good look on ten. 0:55:32.760 --> 0:55:34.799 He had a really good look on eleven. For how 0:55:34.840 --> 0:55:37.000 hard eleven is. He had a great look on twelve, 0:55:37.360 --> 0:55:41.320 He had a great look. On thirteen. He had a 0:55:41.760 --> 0:55:46.040 you know, a really great opportunity on fifteen. They didn't 0:55:46.080 --> 0:55:50.560 cash in. He had a good he had sixteen seventeen. 0:55:50.640 --> 0:55:53.240 He was pinned high. I mean, the guy played great golf. 0:55:54.360 --> 0:55:55.800 Rory did put a little bit of a pin in 0:55:55.840 --> 0:55:58.920 the Boys balloon, saying it would be a more comfortable 0:55:59.000 --> 0:56:03.440 pairing this this Sunday compared to Bryson last year. I 0:56:03.520 --> 0:56:05.960 wouldn't say that's like, I don't think he was intent 0:56:06.120 --> 0:56:08.759 he was dogging Cam. He just felt probably a little 0:56:08.800 --> 0:56:09.840 more comfortable. 0:56:09.480 --> 0:56:12.160 You know what. I liked about Cam the boys. 0:56:12.239 --> 0:56:13.840 I don't know if the boys. The Boys may not 0:56:13.920 --> 0:56:14.759 have appreciated that. 0:56:14.840 --> 0:56:17.560 You know, I loved about Cam here real quick? What 0:56:17.840 --> 0:56:20.480 so that I think people wanted to get like another 0:56:20.680 --> 0:56:23.320 quote about like how Rory didn't talk to talk to 0:56:23.440 --> 0:56:31.320 him and Cam Cam goes he said something along the lines. 0:56:31.440 --> 0:56:33.920 I can't find it here. I didn't mark it. But uh, 0:56:34.160 --> 0:56:36.319 I don't do it. I don't really I. 0:56:36.320 --> 0:56:40.200 Don't really talk much either. I'm not I'm not one 0:56:40.280 --> 0:56:42.200 to talk to him to begin with. I don't think 0:56:42.280 --> 0:56:44.719 he really wanted to talk to me today Sunday and 0:56:44.719 --> 0:56:46.960 the Masters in the final group, you know, don't wish 0:56:47.040 --> 0:56:49.359 anything poorly on the guy, but we're playing against each other, 0:56:49.640 --> 0:56:51.000 not trying to be best friends. 0:56:51.360 --> 0:56:54.200 Yeah. I think I think the reporter was trying to 0:56:54.239 --> 0:56:58.200 get like something similar to bryceon and Cam's like I 0:56:58.280 --> 0:57:02.440 didn't want to talk to him. Bryceon a little diaperte. Also, 0:57:02.600 --> 0:57:06.920 I loved, you know, somebody a reporter at that point, 0:57:07.400 --> 0:57:10.080 the reporters that were in the pool. For the most part, 0:57:10.200 --> 0:57:12.720 I don't think really watched the golf that we're asking 0:57:12.800 --> 0:57:13.400 the questions. 0:57:14.120 --> 0:57:17.520 Oh, I haven't read Cam's transcript so anyway, but I 0:57:17.560 --> 0:57:18.200 did watch the golf. 0:57:18.280 --> 0:57:24.160 Somebody, somebody suggested that he wasn't being aggressive enough. He goes, yeah, 0:57:24.320 --> 0:57:27.360 what does that mean because he didn't make eight birdie that. 0:57:27.640 --> 0:57:29.760 He goes, yeah, but I mean, how much closer do 0:57:29.800 --> 0:57:31.880 you want me to hit it that I did on 0:57:31.960 --> 0:57:35.320 the back nine? Want me to aim right right on twelve? 0:57:36.640 --> 0:57:39.480 Just one of those. I think the shots are pretty obvious, 0:57:39.560 --> 0:57:41.040 and I hit a lot of them. I just didn't 0:57:41.080 --> 0:57:45.000 make anything. I thought Cam played great golf on the 0:57:45.080 --> 0:57:48.720 back nine. I you know, you could play this. You 0:57:48.760 --> 0:57:53.600 could replay the the that that back nine a couple 0:57:53.640 --> 0:57:56.720 of times and Cam Cam probably comes out on top 0:57:57.280 --> 0:58:00.600 thirty percent of the time. Yeah, Like he hit the shots, 0:58:01.080 --> 0:58:04.280 he didn't make the putts, And it comes down to you. 0:58:05.800 --> 0:58:08.520 Golf usually reveals your weaknesses. And I know he's spent 0:58:08.600 --> 0:58:13.760 a great putter, but this is gonna Everybody has their 0:58:13.800 --> 0:58:17.040 little kryptonite of getting over there, over the hump, And 0:58:18.840 --> 0:58:20.640 it took Cam a long time to get over the 0:58:20.720 --> 0:58:24.400 hump in a regular tour event because the putter held 0:58:24.440 --> 0:58:27.560 him back. Yeah, we've seen him, the putter hold him 0:58:27.640 --> 0:58:31.440 back in majors and it looked like it is solved. 0:58:31.480 --> 0:58:34.120 But like this is the gravity of today was huge. 0:58:34.800 --> 0:58:37.919 And as much as he downplayed, you know, I didn't 0:58:37.960 --> 0:58:38.920 feel much different. 0:58:40.720 --> 0:58:41.080 You just. 0:58:42.720 --> 0:58:45.560 Some It was not like he choked or anything. 0:58:45.640 --> 0:58:46.360 No, he didn't. 0:58:46.400 --> 0:58:48.960 He just didn't get it done, didn't She was seventy eight. 0:58:49.080 --> 0:58:50.120 There was none of that. 0:58:50.440 --> 0:58:52.840 I will say. I mean, I know you just brought 0:58:52.920 --> 0:58:54.840 up the quote like, did you feel any different three 0:58:54.960 --> 0:58:57.680 years ago? He said, yes, even a year ago a 0:58:57.760 --> 0:59:01.919 little bit. I mean for on the front nine, even 0:59:02.000 --> 0:59:05.000 a year ago. Is it death now? It was it 0:59:05.080 --> 0:59:05.840 would be over. 0:59:06.880 --> 0:59:10.680 Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll say I gotta say, I'm sorry. 0:59:11.160 --> 0:59:13.000 I'm sorry your boy didn't get it done for you, 0:59:14.960 --> 0:59:20.400 both spiritually and financially. It happens a good chunk of 0:59:20.520 --> 0:59:22.520 change was going to come your way. If it's going 0:59:22.600 --> 0:59:25.520 to be this is going to be you know, wind 0:59:25.880 --> 0:59:28.400 windfall that probably would have changed your short term life. 0:59:28.600 --> 0:59:29.480 Yeah, for sure. 0:59:29.560 --> 0:59:30.600 Looking at a GLS. 0:59:30.800 --> 0:59:31.600 Maybe it's okay. 0:59:31.760 --> 0:59:33.640 I actually made that joke Handy this morning. 0:59:37.080 --> 0:59:40.120 One of the coolest scenes. I went to the range 0:59:40.400 --> 0:59:43.600 before they teed off, and usually the range like it's 0:59:43.680 --> 0:59:45.920 kind of meh, like it's just guys hitting balls and 0:59:46.040 --> 0:59:48.240 you don't know what you get and you probably overinflate 0:59:48.320 --> 0:59:52.360 the moment. I like watched it. It's incredible to think about, 0:59:52.440 --> 0:59:56.160 like your dad is your coach, but he's also your dad. 0:59:56.560 --> 0:59:56.800 Does that? 0:59:56.960 --> 0:59:59.480 I know that sounds so simplistic, but to think about, 0:59:59.520 --> 1:00:01.400 like your on is about to play the fun around 1:00:01.440 --> 1:00:02.959 the Masters, but you also have to be the coach. 1:00:03.480 --> 1:00:05.200 And he's on the range with him, and he was 1:00:05.280 --> 1:00:07.000 watching like he would watch Rory hit, and then he 1:00:07.080 --> 1:00:09.480 go back to his son, who is still his son, 1:00:09.640 --> 1:00:11.800 like I hate to be so Like it's incredible this 1:00:11.920 --> 1:00:14.520 double duty he had. And his mom was up above 1:00:15.480 --> 1:00:18.880 and like you're like the pieces pieces of your parents, right, 1:00:18.960 --> 1:00:21.240 Like his mom has his countenance, like the face and 1:00:21.360 --> 1:00:24.000 like the deadpan cam like I don't talk much deal 1:00:24.400 --> 1:00:26.360 and like his dad, he obviously gets the golf game 1:00:26.400 --> 1:00:29.040 from his dad or parts of the golf game and 1:00:29.120 --> 1:00:31.280 its instruction. I think his mom's a very good player, 1:00:31.920 --> 1:00:36.040 really good player too, and like you're these pieces of 1:00:36.760 --> 1:00:41.280 your parents, And it was just fascinating to watch his 1:00:41.400 --> 1:00:43.680 dad then out on the course, like he hits it 1:00:43.720 --> 1:00:46.960 on thirteen and that like maybe was going to go 1:00:47.040 --> 1:00:49.160 down into the tribute his dad, like it stopped and 1:00:49.240 --> 1:00:50.920 his dad like gulped because all of a sudden, his 1:00:51.000 --> 1:00:53.880 dad goes from coach on the range to dad in 1:00:54.600 --> 1:00:57.520 in the cigar, smoke with and Schmutz with everybody else. 1:00:57.680 --> 1:00:59.760 Why And he walked the hole as far as I 1:01:00.400 --> 1:01:02.080 every day he walked the whole deal. 1:01:02.280 --> 1:01:04.240 Yeah, and every day he walked the whole deal. 1:01:04.760 --> 1:01:05.040 It was. 1:01:05.200 --> 1:01:07.240 And they were both at the far end. Rory and 1:01:07.800 --> 1:01:09.760 Cam stayed till the end, and it was like if 1:01:09.800 --> 1:01:11.800 you were golf sick of it was like incredible. At 1:01:11.840 --> 1:01:15.200 one point they were both hitting driver and Kim was 1:01:15.280 --> 1:01:18.040 kind of coming across the range, like hitting from the 1:01:18.120 --> 1:01:21.520 farthest left across the range, and Rory was hitting his draw, 1:01:22.480 --> 1:01:24.560 working on a draw, and like they were on the 1:01:24.640 --> 1:01:27.720 same cadence and and it was like this perfectly blue sky. 1:01:27.960 --> 1:01:30.280 I'm not being corny about this. Like their balls like 1:01:30.400 --> 1:01:33.439 almost like kissed and crossed, and they were the only 1:01:33.560 --> 1:01:35.960 two players on the range. It was dead silent and 1:01:36.200 --> 1:01:39.560 literally the whole world, like the entire world waiting on 1:01:39.600 --> 1:01:42.480 the other side, in like fifteen minutes, and the balls 1:01:42.560 --> 1:01:44.560 like kissed and were they were on the same cadence. 1:01:44.600 --> 1:01:46.680 It was an incredible scene. I was like with his 1:01:46.840 --> 1:01:47.960 dad there watching him. 1:01:48.160 --> 1:01:54.280 It's the coolest thing about these extreme high stakes golf tournaments. 1:01:54.320 --> 1:01:57.160 And Patrick Reed spoke about it in the in the 1:01:57.240 --> 1:02:00.240 lead up to the tournament, the thing he missed. Yeah, 1:02:00.320 --> 1:02:03.320 the Masters, it's just ramped up, and you know, the 1:02:03.400 --> 1:02:06.000 whole week, there's so many people around, so many people 1:02:06.120 --> 1:02:09.000 on the range, and then on Saturday and Sunday it's 1:02:09.160 --> 1:02:13.520 just like the last two guys and it's Cam and Rory. 1:02:13.720 --> 1:02:16.800 Last year it was Rory and Bryson, and there's just 1:02:16.960 --> 1:02:19.560 like when you sit and watch the range, there's just 1:02:19.720 --> 1:02:24.600 like this this gravity to the moment where you'll it was. 1:02:24.840 --> 1:02:28.440 It was amazing and just to think like that's also 1:02:28.480 --> 1:02:30.040 his dad is now going to watch his kid go 1:02:30.160 --> 1:02:32.480 play the Masters. It was really powerful. 1:02:32.640 --> 1:02:35.160 While we're on Parents, Can I give you my nominee 1:02:35.320 --> 1:02:36.480 for Quote of the Day Award? 1:02:36.640 --> 1:02:36.840 Sure? 1:02:38.040 --> 1:02:39.200 Is it from Jerry or something? 1:02:39.440 --> 1:02:42.840 It's not. It's relating to the to the young parents. 1:02:43.160 --> 1:02:47.080 Uh cam Cam comes through the whole tunnel of love 1:02:48.240 --> 1:02:52.880 before Rory does, and the first scoring no after goes 1:02:52.960 --> 1:02:55.440 to scoring. He's walking with his wife. They passed through. 1:02:56.040 --> 1:02:58.360 His mom is is coming behind them, a couple of 1:02:58.360 --> 1:03:01.040 steps behind. She was walking all week with like one 1:03:01.080 --> 1:03:03.720 of those chairs that you PLoP down or whatever, and 1:03:05.040 --> 1:03:08.720 some moron just yells, good job, Dottie, happy for you 1:03:09.480 --> 1:03:11.120 at missus. 1:03:11.360 --> 1:03:14.600 Yeah, she still carries the folding chair that it was 1:03:14.680 --> 1:03:16.560 kind of she had to ask what time it was 1:03:16.600 --> 1:03:18.520 on the range. She asked somebody else what time it was. 1:03:18.680 --> 1:03:19.720 Brentley made the joke. 1:03:19.600 --> 1:03:23.720 But they thought they thought she was Donnie Pepper. I 1:03:23.960 --> 1:03:27.040 just wanted to make that. God, I was like stunned 1:03:27.160 --> 1:03:28.160 in disbelief that that. 1:03:28.720 --> 1:03:31.120 I think it happened more than once. It happened while 1:03:31.200 --> 1:03:35.040 she was Honestly, it happened. It happened while she was 1:03:35.120 --> 1:03:37.080 walking in to scoring. 1:03:38.000 --> 1:03:38.840 That's what I just said. 1:03:38.920 --> 1:03:40.920 That's what I thought you were saying somewhere else. And 1:03:41.000 --> 1:03:44.160 obviously obviously Rory's pieces of his. 1:03:44.280 --> 1:03:47.360 Parents too, like his father, Eternal Optimists and his work. 1:03:47.440 --> 1:03:49.160 I think his mom all these things. It was just 1:03:49.240 --> 1:03:50.919 it was interesting to watch the two of them watch 1:03:50.960 --> 1:03:52.920 their son get ready, should we go to someone else? 1:03:52.960 --> 1:03:58.240 Camp Cam gets the seven top tens in nineteen nineteen majors. 1:03:58.280 --> 1:04:01.000 Now got it. He's knock on the door. It's going 1:04:01.040 --> 1:04:01.360 to happen. 1:04:01.480 --> 1:04:04.640 God, hold, this is every skills, all the skills. 1:04:04.840 --> 1:04:07.040 Yeah, he's going to be there. Iron I mink he 1:04:07.120 --> 1:04:11.880 should be on the shortlist for uh Rose Rose anything 1:04:11.960 --> 1:04:13.439 we want to talk about with Justin Rose. 1:04:13.480 --> 1:04:15.600 We certainly hit on him, like he got uncomfortable in 1:04:15.640 --> 1:04:18.600 the wind. I'll say his shot on seven low key 1:04:18.760 --> 1:04:20.840 like shot of the tournament. That another one that will 1:04:20.880 --> 1:04:24.840 be forgotten, like absolute cut from Lamanya was there. He 1:04:24.880 --> 1:04:26.640 can probably come in. He was like right behind him 1:04:26.640 --> 1:04:29.040 when he will talk about like shot of the tournament, 1:04:29.120 --> 1:04:32.160 the side spin just whipping down seven gets ripped a 1:04:32.240 --> 1:04:34.600 lot as like maybe the weakest hole out there and 1:04:34.840 --> 1:04:39.120 is now reduced again to dry almost the drive, which 1:04:39.280 --> 1:04:40.520 was what it was originally. 1:04:40.720 --> 1:04:43.320 And it's good that they moved the t back one 1:04:43.400 --> 1:04:46.520 hundred and twenty yards and in the original attent of 1:04:46.680 --> 1:04:50.160 Mackenzie's been with we're back now, thank you, thank you, 1:04:50.280 --> 1:04:54.720 golf Ballah, here we go. Yeah, it was but watching shots. 1:04:54.400 --> 1:04:56.960 Frequently there in those approaches is amazing. That was one 1:04:57.000 --> 1:04:59.840 of the great shots of the weekend. That that side spin. 1:05:00.000 --> 1:05:00.840 I don't have much else. 1:05:02.360 --> 1:05:06.360 The good Man Rose. Yeah, a lion, a real line, 1:05:06.440 --> 1:05:08.960 much more of a lion than Jay Day. I gotta apologize. 1:05:09.400 --> 1:05:12.920 You know, PJ worked me in a tizzy last night. 1:05:13.840 --> 1:05:16.680 And because because of his Jason Day slants. 1:05:16.920 --> 1:05:19.640 How this works, folks, I'm getting blamed for the bad takes. 1:05:19.760 --> 1:05:23.000 Well, no, because of your Jason Day slander. I just 1:05:23.480 --> 1:05:28.840 I just said, roses pretenders. I did lash out because 1:05:28.880 --> 1:05:31.720 I was I was. I was frustrated with your with 1:05:31.880 --> 1:05:33.280 your Jason Day slander. 1:05:33.440 --> 1:05:34.760 And do we want to talk about that? 1:05:35.480 --> 1:05:36.920 I mean, we don't need to talk about that. 1:05:37.040 --> 1:05:39.720 I think the lion, I think Joseph. When Joseph comes in, 1:05:39.800 --> 1:05:41.000 we're gonna talk about that a little bit. 1:05:41.040 --> 1:05:43.360 The lion was out rowing around. 1:05:43.920 --> 1:05:49.000 You know, it was awesome. Bertie Birdie Birdie eight nine seven. 1:05:51.960 --> 1:05:57.560 He's he's ageless. I don't know how many I don't 1:05:57.640 --> 1:06:01.000 know how he can keep getting into the man. He'll 1:06:01.040 --> 1:06:05.680 be forty six at next year's Masters. I think that, 1:06:07.520 --> 1:06:12.160 you know, last year, this year, I have a hard time. 1:06:12.800 --> 1:06:16.400 I think these were two shots. I don't think he's 1:06:16.560 --> 1:06:18.560 I think he's going to join the list of like 1:06:19.280 --> 1:06:19.840 snake bit. 1:06:20.520 --> 1:06:24.560 Okay, that's probably fair. I just but god, what a lot. 1:06:24.600 --> 1:06:26.320 I mean, you talk and we're gonna get to Sergio, 1:06:26.360 --> 1:06:28.400 We're gonna get to his ass in a minute. But 1:06:28.480 --> 1:06:31.720 you talk about like the same age, same contemporary, the 1:06:31.800 --> 1:06:33.920 guy who won in seventeen, the guy who lost in 1:06:33.960 --> 1:06:38.720 the playoff, and Sergio who's just been na just irrelevant 1:06:38.920 --> 1:06:41.640 at the Master since he won, and Rose just keeps 1:06:41.720 --> 1:06:44.240 coming back and keeps coming back and keeps coming back. 1:06:44.280 --> 1:06:47.120 Could have gone in two very different directions, or Sergio 1:06:47.240 --> 1:06:50.160 did not do this the ry rout of coming back 1:06:50.240 --> 1:06:53.800 to the well. But yeah, you think he's done in 1:06:54.000 --> 1:06:55.800 terms of this kind of opportunity. 1:06:56.400 --> 1:07:02.560 You know, one of the best press conference anecdotes that 1:07:02.680 --> 1:07:10.479 I had from today is Adam Scott, obviously contemporary, someone 1:07:10.480 --> 1:07:15.400 who's played against j R. For years. Somebody asked change 1:07:15.440 --> 1:07:18.280 his subject briefly, this will be my last question. What 1:07:18.480 --> 1:07:21.320 is it like to play with Justin now? What's it 1:07:21.480 --> 1:07:24.640 like to play with him? What's he like to play alongside? 1:07:24.800 --> 1:07:27.760 And Adam Scott said, I think that he's quite an 1:07:27.840 --> 1:07:32.840 intense competitor. Justin I don't think anyone should be surprised 1:07:32.880 --> 1:07:35.959 by that, given his showing again this week, his showing 1:07:36.040 --> 1:07:39.840 here last year. He's a very focused, intense competitor. So 1:07:40.000 --> 1:07:42.720 having spent my whole career kind of alongside each other, 1:07:43.680 --> 1:07:47.360 I'm saying this as a compliment that he's still so focused, 1:07:47.880 --> 1:07:50.680 maybe from the outside looking in a little bit even 1:07:50.840 --> 1:07:54.520 more focused than ever actually at this point in his career. 1:07:56.200 --> 1:07:58.400 And then they said, what about like his golf does 1:07:58.440 --> 1:08:02.600 he do well? Well, he's calculated. I think he really 1:08:02.760 --> 1:08:05.960 knows his own tendencies well and he plays around them 1:08:06.040 --> 1:08:07.280 all to his advantage. 1:08:07.760 --> 1:08:07.920 You know. 1:08:08.320 --> 1:08:11.040 I think he's been very meticulous and about the way 1:08:11.080 --> 1:08:14.640 he's built his game. I would say probably for the 1:08:14.760 --> 1:08:18.120 last fifteen years, but certainly the last couple. I think 1:08:18.160 --> 1:08:21.760 there's been a very narrowed focus and he's very meticulous 1:08:21.760 --> 1:08:27.040 about things. The thing that I found most interesting, and 1:08:27.120 --> 1:08:31.960 I think this is so true, the calculation. I think 1:08:32.160 --> 1:08:37.800 Justin Rose like he understands like this tournament and when 1:08:37.880 --> 1:08:40.479 he needs to make moves and what he has to 1:08:40.600 --> 1:08:43.400 do and when he has to take things on and 1:08:43.600 --> 1:08:50.240 what like the key he has just this like he 1:08:50.400 --> 1:08:54.000 seems to hit the right shot at all the right times, 1:08:54.680 --> 1:08:59.720 and today we didn't see really anybody coming down the stretch. Like, 1:09:00.120 --> 1:09:02.040 I think he knew he had to take on thirteen, 1:09:02.680 --> 1:09:04.840 and I think he knew he had to make an eagle. 1:09:04.960 --> 1:09:08.040 He hit the shot, He hit the shot, and then 1:09:08.080 --> 1:09:12.280 he gave the eagle a real run. Yeah, Like he 1:09:12.479 --> 1:09:15.120 wanted the eagle, and I think he knew he needed 1:09:15.200 --> 1:09:18.320 the eagle there, he needed the eagle, and he went 1:09:18.400 --> 1:09:22.160 for the win and it didn't happen. But I I 1:09:22.240 --> 1:09:26.040 think he's like I walk away from this and he's not. 1:09:26.280 --> 1:09:29.519 I don't. He's for sure the not the most talented. 1:09:29.600 --> 1:09:29.880 He is. 1:09:30.760 --> 1:09:34.840 He has earned his place in the game by hard work. 1:09:35.000 --> 1:09:38.000 He gained speed in the early twenty tens, like, and 1:09:38.080 --> 1:09:42.320 he's gone about managing his body, managing his game. But 1:09:42.640 --> 1:09:47.600 he wins and he gets in the mix because he 1:09:47.920 --> 1:09:51.360 just he gets himself ready for the tournament physically and 1:09:51.760 --> 1:09:54.080 with the golf swing. But then he just has this 1:09:54.240 --> 1:09:58.519 incredible pulse and he knows what he has to do 1:09:59.160 --> 1:10:01.120 to get to win. He needs to get to and 1:10:01.200 --> 1:10:04.040 I think today like he went for it, and really, 1:10:04.160 --> 1:10:06.679 like you know, you look at this round the three 1:10:06.760 --> 1:10:12.160 putt killed him killed, but he needed the eagle there 1:10:12.240 --> 1:10:14.320 to win. He did need the eagle. 1:10:14.640 --> 1:10:17.040 He talked about the second shot on eleven really kind 1:10:17.040 --> 1:10:18.840 of put him on the fritz. That was deep, like 1:10:19.000 --> 1:10:22.120 super deep, and that was really when he started struggling 1:10:22.160 --> 1:10:25.280 with the wind. We should get to the sheriff. 1:10:25.840 --> 1:10:27.360 Should we bring in everybody. 1:10:27.600 --> 1:10:30.160 Let's get to the sheriff real quick well, which will 1:10:30.200 --> 1:10:33.120 transition us to a golf course chat and bring everybody in. 1:10:35.160 --> 1:10:42.479 Incredible birdie three puts two, goes long on eight and 1:10:43.000 --> 1:10:45.519 makes a run, makes a run, he said, you know, 1:10:45.840 --> 1:10:48.040 repeatedly in his press conference. You know, look, I was 1:10:48.080 --> 1:10:49.800 twelve shots back. I think I did pretty well. I 1:10:49.840 --> 1:10:51.759 end up going out at twelve shots back at the weekend. 1:10:51.960 --> 1:10:54.080 Everything that was done was done in the first two days. 1:10:54.880 --> 1:10:56.200 I think it would have been nice, you know, I 1:10:56.400 --> 1:10:58.120 think I did pretty well to be one shot out. 1:11:00.280 --> 1:11:01.880 A lot of golf course talk, and we'll get to 1:11:01.960 --> 1:11:05.639 it in a second. I'm not in charge of course setup, 1:11:05.720 --> 1:11:08.200 he said. I would have liked it. Who have been 1:11:08.240 --> 1:11:11.240 a little bit more and this is where the sirens 1:11:11.280 --> 1:11:16.200 start blazing a little bit more equal in terms of 1:11:16.280 --> 1:11:19.240 the firmness on Thursday and Friday. I was a bit 1:11:19.360 --> 1:11:23.679 surprised at how soft things were on Friday afternoon, especially 1:11:23.760 --> 1:11:26.800 as it got late in the day. But the weather 1:11:26.880 --> 1:11:29.559 also changes a bit, and it was windy on Thursday, 1:11:29.640 --> 1:11:34.800 So who knows. We play an outdoor sport. And he 1:11:34.880 --> 1:11:39.280 spoke about just getting the wrong side he did the draw. 1:11:39.840 --> 1:11:41.720 It's a true story. He got the wrong side of 1:11:41.760 --> 1:11:46.280 the draw. But isn't that just how they It's it's 1:11:46.360 --> 1:11:48.680 how golf works. And I think, you know, I think 1:11:48.720 --> 1:11:55.800 he said later in his interview session. Listen, like what 1:11:56.000 --> 1:12:00.439 costume was shooting two over on the easiest day. He 1:12:00.560 --> 1:12:03.640 goes out no win soft golf course and he shoots. 1:12:03.320 --> 1:12:05.760 Two over Friday. Probably hurt the most in terms of 1:12:05.840 --> 1:12:07.960 my chances of winning. Yeah, that's what he said, And 1:12:08.439 --> 1:12:10.720 I think like that at the end of the day, 1:12:10.880 --> 1:12:16.759 like he he just did not he didn't make enough putts. 1:12:17.760 --> 1:12:19.000 He hit a lot of great shots. 1:12:19.400 --> 1:12:24.439 You know, yesterday he almost he almost ended Jason Sible's 1:12:24.479 --> 1:12:28.160 career when he said it was a dumb question, then 1:12:28.280 --> 1:12:33.479 later and then later then backtracked. Probably probably not that 1:12:33.600 --> 1:12:35.640 bad of a question. But of course the only thing 1:12:35.720 --> 1:12:39.800 that got aggregated was that's a stupid question. Yeah, but 1:12:40.040 --> 1:12:46.040 uh yeah, I you know, listen, like he uh, he's 1:12:46.080 --> 1:12:48.960 got an amazing he's gonna win more of these, and 1:12:49.360 --> 1:12:53.200 he's got an amazing knack for just being around. And 1:12:53.680 --> 1:12:55.840 you know, I think he probably walks away from this 1:12:56.000 --> 1:12:59.280 feeling much like Rory I almost won this thing with 1:12:59.400 --> 1:13:00.200 my Beers. 1:13:00.240 --> 1:13:04.680 Game right right, one shot out yea. And yeah, I 1:13:04.920 --> 1:13:08.880 don't think this we're taking any kind of alarming sort 1:13:08.920 --> 1:13:11.960 of extrapolation from his week at all with anything, or 1:13:12.080 --> 1:13:14.400 just like he's still maybe the scariest dude in the sport. 1:13:14.640 --> 1:13:16.639 Is probably how we come away from this week. 1:13:17.240 --> 1:13:20.200 It's it, I mean, the Rory Scotty kind of one 1:13:20.280 --> 1:13:23.639 two gets more interesting after this. I think you probably 1:13:23.720 --> 1:13:26.920 still have or Scotty out out in front. But I mean, 1:13:28.000 --> 1:13:31.200 it's it's it's close. And I think this year, probably, 1:13:31.320 --> 1:13:33.439 if I had to guess, I think Rory's probably going 1:13:33.479 --> 1:13:37.080 to handle the three majors after this win, probably better 1:13:37.160 --> 1:13:38.880 than he handled the last ones. Is you know, it 1:13:39.000 --> 1:13:40.840 seemed like he kind of gotten a funk of like 1:13:41.520 --> 1:13:45.160 he accomplished such a huge thing, and you know it's 1:13:45.240 --> 1:13:47.680 like kind of like I think this year is you're 1:13:47.680 --> 1:13:50.479 going to see a more focused and sharp Rory at 1:13:50.520 --> 1:13:51.639 the next three major. 1:13:51.600 --> 1:13:55.640 Speaking of Rory and Scotty, a golf course setup that 1:13:55.800 --> 1:13:58.840 has Rory solo first and Scotty's solo second. Well, now 1:13:58.840 --> 1:14:03.720 you're doing the Valhalla thing, the good leaderboard. Yeah, they 1:14:03.720 --> 1:14:07.519 did it last night. Look, there was a lot of 1:14:07.600 --> 1:14:12.240 hollering about the I think people maybe we used dollar 1:14:12.280 --> 1:14:13.160 ammo on Saturday. 1:14:13.240 --> 1:14:13.599 That's fine. 1:14:13.600 --> 1:14:15.439 I don't want to repeat myself. This felt like a 1:14:15.560 --> 1:14:19.600 very simplistic, simplistic line of thinking that was sort of 1:14:20.479 --> 1:14:24.200 devoid of critical thought and just you shrouded in like 1:14:24.360 --> 1:14:27.680 statistics as like a safety net. And I think like 1:14:27.960 --> 1:14:30.920 what you saw on Thursday night, like or Thursday you're like, oh, 1:14:31.160 --> 1:14:33.840 it's firm. It just needs to get incrementally harder from 1:14:33.880 --> 1:14:36.000 here on out because it's not going to rain. And 1:14:36.080 --> 1:14:38.960 then there were some low scores on Saturday. It's just 1:14:40.280 --> 1:14:42.880 every single player. You have to just listen to the players. 1:14:43.160 --> 1:14:45.280 This is as firm as it's ever been. The greens 1:14:45.280 --> 1:14:47.800 are purple, the greens are the greens are a different 1:14:47.880 --> 1:14:50.559 shade of purple and brown. This is as firm as 1:14:50.600 --> 1:14:54.200 it's ever been. They were at the edge on Thursday. 1:14:54.760 --> 1:14:57.720 I think it yielded like you were getting punished if 1:14:57.720 --> 1:15:02.120 you hit poor shots. It wasn't like dartboard drive. It 1:15:02.479 --> 1:15:06.519 wedge it and it sticks, you know, and it sticks 1:15:06.960 --> 1:15:09.280 right there and rolls back a foot. None of that 1:15:09.560 --> 1:15:12.880 was happening. I thought Jordan's beef put it quick quite well. 1:15:13.560 --> 1:15:16.240 He said the holes that greens need to be softer 1:15:16.360 --> 1:15:18.759 are softer, and then it was let go on the others. 1:15:18.800 --> 1:15:21.000 This is a Sunday setup like it was on Thursday. 1:15:21.479 --> 1:15:23.479 You can't have it like Thursday with where the pins 1:15:23.479 --> 1:15:26.240 are on six down wind and stuff like that. So 1:15:26.400 --> 1:15:28.640 they have it at a playable spot, but you have 1:15:28.720 --> 1:15:31.200 differences in how firm some of the greens are compared 1:15:31.280 --> 1:15:33.880 to others, and you just trust that they know what 1:15:33.960 --> 1:15:37.960 they're doing, which is easier to trust here than anywhere else. 1:15:38.720 --> 1:15:42.280 I think Augusta Nashal is like pretty big on championship 1:15:42.320 --> 1:15:46.400 golf and championship tournament conditions, and you do have to 1:15:46.479 --> 1:15:50.320 trust them. I don't blind deference to them at all. 1:15:50.800 --> 1:15:52.880 It just felt like the narrative that set in it 1:15:53.240 --> 1:15:56.439 was aggregated everywhere. There's Golf Digest article about it, just 1:15:56.560 --> 1:15:59.759 like they went soft and drenched the greens like drenched. 1:16:00.360 --> 1:16:04.160 Nothing was drenched here, I mean just wasn't It wasn't 1:16:04.200 --> 1:16:07.439 critical thinking you were just over indexing on Thursday afternoon. 1:16:08.800 --> 1:16:11.840 I'm not an agronomy expert. I would say that I 1:16:11.960 --> 1:16:15.920 probably understand agronomy a little bit more than most golf 1:16:15.960 --> 1:16:16.600 writers or. 1:16:16.640 --> 1:16:23.080 Golf media folks do. But I think the reality there's 1:16:23.120 --> 1:16:27.400 also a dynamic of what the Masters is. The Masters 1:16:27.560 --> 1:16:30.320 is the tournament where people go can go get it 1:16:30.840 --> 1:16:37.240 and the race like you still, you saw that dynamic 1:16:37.400 --> 1:16:42.240 on Saturday and Friday, and the weather was really dry. 1:16:44.400 --> 1:16:46.360 And what I mean by dry is like when there's 1:16:46.439 --> 1:16:51.120 no humidity, the greens can get really firm, really fast 1:16:51.240 --> 1:16:58.280 if there's wind. And I think Thursday, I'm I'm certain 1:16:59.320 --> 1:17:03.160 that the golf made the green jackets a little uncomfortable 1:17:03.520 --> 1:17:06.200 for the rest of the week. Like I think they 1:17:06.240 --> 1:17:09.839 were uncomfortable with where the golf course got on Thursday afternoon. 1:17:11.960 --> 1:17:15.880 So yes, they put water down on Friday morning, but 1:17:16.040 --> 1:17:19.920 that was water down to protect in case it got windy, 1:17:20.640 --> 1:17:24.559 which you don't know. If it got windy on those days, 1:17:24.600 --> 1:17:27.400 you would have seen really firm greens in the afternoon, 1:17:27.520 --> 1:17:31.800 but it didn't. And this is exactly like when the 1:17:31.960 --> 1:17:36.160 USGA has lost Shinnecock. This is exactly the equation low 1:17:36.280 --> 1:17:40.560 humidity days where the breeze picks up and then the 1:17:40.640 --> 1:17:45.400 greens get too firm. So you have this dynamic of 1:17:45.760 --> 1:17:48.400 we have to put water down in case the weather 1:17:48.560 --> 1:17:52.800 forecast change. You can't. Yeah, the weather look forecast looked 1:17:52.800 --> 1:17:56.400 great all week and you had like but if that changes, 1:17:56.760 --> 1:18:00.360 you can't lose the golf course. Like at the horror 1:18:00.439 --> 1:18:03.360 of what you're trying to do, you you want the 1:18:03.439 --> 1:18:06.800 golf course, and especially their golf course is always going 1:18:06.880 --> 1:18:08.800 to be a part. We see the golf course play 1:18:08.880 --> 1:18:12.360 a huge role, whether it's soft or whether it's firm. 1:18:13.240 --> 1:18:15.760 But like, you can't have the golf course and you 1:18:16.080 --> 1:18:18.840 losing it be the number one story. And the line 1:18:19.520 --> 1:18:22.440 is more narrow, and I think, like what people don't realize, 1:18:22.600 --> 1:18:24.559 and I think where like some of this comes from. 1:18:25.000 --> 1:18:28.439 It was also hot, so the ball was going really far, 1:18:29.240 --> 1:18:31.599 and the ball stops when you're hitting a lob wedge, 1:18:31.920 --> 1:18:34.479 it just does. And and these guys were hitting lob 1:18:34.600 --> 1:18:38.639 wedges into everywhere. I mean, Rory hit a six iron 1:18:38.800 --> 1:18:42.640 into eight today. That is a monster hole uphill I 1:18:42.680 --> 1:18:46.479 think it is it five to eighty uphill. Yeah, he 1:18:46.560 --> 1:18:49.400 hit a six iron into the green. Okay, so the 1:18:49.600 --> 1:18:53.240 ball has gotten completely the ball and equipment have gotten 1:18:53.400 --> 1:18:58.160 completely out of control, where like fourteen to padri and 1:18:58.360 --> 1:19:03.040 pitch drive in pitch hole and so you're hitting these 1:19:03.040 --> 1:19:05.679 short clubs in so yeah, but like when you see 1:19:05.720 --> 1:19:08.880 them hit longer clubs in like today with like six 1:19:09.000 --> 1:19:12.479 down wind was just like it was a nobody could 1:19:12.520 --> 1:19:16.240 hit the top portion fifteen down wind today it was 1:19:16.400 --> 1:19:19.439 incredibly hard to Like, Cameron Young hits the ball as 1:19:19.520 --> 1:19:22.799 high as anybody in the world outside of maybe Rory 1:19:23.680 --> 1:19:27.960 and pent Marco Penji. But he hits the ball, he 1:19:28.080 --> 1:19:30.880 hits towering iron shots and I'm fifteen. He can't hold 1:19:30.920 --> 1:19:34.240 the green. So today you get wind and the greens 1:19:34.280 --> 1:19:38.120 get firm and nobody complains. Yesterday you don't get wind 1:19:38.640 --> 1:19:42.040 and people complain. And the day before you don't get wind, 1:19:42.160 --> 1:19:45.800 so people complain. But like this is not but you 1:19:45.960 --> 1:19:49.640 can't just you don't just set like there's not like 1:19:49.840 --> 1:19:52.320 some little like button that you set. And that's what 1:19:52.479 --> 1:19:54.080 it gets to be all day long. 1:19:54.200 --> 1:19:58.280 Thought, it's complaining without proposal of any kind of alternative. 1:19:58.360 --> 1:20:02.000 Complaining from people that aren't out watching golf shots actually 1:20:02.200 --> 1:20:06.000 like land and react and hear the sound that they're 1:20:06.040 --> 1:20:08.679 making on the green. The winner shot seventy three seventy 1:20:08.760 --> 1:20:10.839 one on the weekend, Like, okay, you've complained. 1:20:10.880 --> 1:20:12.840 What did you want? You wanted to shoot seventy you 1:20:12.920 --> 1:20:15.400 wanted all eighties? Like did you want where? Did you 1:20:15.439 --> 1:20:17.880 want the pins? What is your proposal? What is your alternative? 1:20:18.160 --> 1:20:19.680 I think we would be all over it if it 1:20:19.760 --> 1:20:22.240 went like if they were super soft and this was 1:20:22.280 --> 1:20:24.320 a disgrace and this wasn't what we want from Augusta, 1:20:24.400 --> 1:20:26.599 we would absolutely shout out about it. I think it's 1:20:26.640 --> 1:20:30.200 just they saw the forecast no rain. Everybody needs to 1:20:30.200 --> 1:20:32.680 shoot eighty this week because it's not raining, and like, 1:20:32.800 --> 1:20:35.559 there's no alternative proposal other than to shout and holler 1:20:35.600 --> 1:20:38.080 about it being like not as hard as you want it. 1:20:38.320 --> 1:20:40.519 There's no actual realistic counter. 1:20:41.439 --> 1:20:43.560 Anyways, seventy three seventy one was enough to get it 1:20:43.600 --> 1:20:47.160 done on the weekend and thirteen and they had their 1:20:47.560 --> 1:20:48.439 their bite back. 1:20:48.520 --> 1:20:49.280 It was awesome. 1:20:50.000 --> 1:20:54.799 They could have probably pushed it a little bit more. Okay, Friday, 1:20:55.080 --> 1:20:57.960 they're like, yeah, you might have been able to push 1:20:58.000 --> 1:21:02.360 it a little bit more. But again it just illuminates 1:21:02.520 --> 1:21:05.560 and this goes back to Chairman Reley's uh you know 1:21:05.840 --> 1:21:09.040 first or is press conference. It illuminates the issue with 1:21:09.120 --> 1:21:13.040 the ball. Yes, Scotty Shuffler covered the bunkers on one 1:21:13.080 --> 1:21:16.280 today that he's a middle of the road hitter like 1:21:16.720 --> 1:21:20.520 like hep. These guys are hitting wedges into one to everything. 1:21:20.880 --> 1:21:24.960 That's to make the complaint that Augusta went soft and 1:21:25.439 --> 1:21:28.080 just not bringing up the ball in relation to how 1:21:28.160 --> 1:21:31.479 they are driving it to wedge distance on these what 1:21:31.560 --> 1:21:34.320 are supposed to be these beefy part fours. Is that 1:21:34.560 --> 1:21:36.680 is the bigger problem. And I know people say we're 1:21:36.680 --> 1:21:39.200 sitting from the same hymn sheet ball blaming the ball. 1:21:40.439 --> 1:21:43.320 Open your eyes, like that's that's what? Where is the 1:21:43.439 --> 1:21:45.880 needle you want to thread when they have to wedd 1:21:46.040 --> 1:21:48.240 What do you want the course to be when they 1:21:48.280 --> 1:21:50.640 are when they're hitting it that far? What do you 1:21:50.720 --> 1:21:51.920 how do you want them to shoot eighty? 1:21:52.200 --> 1:21:55.200 Well, I just don't know how you you can get 1:21:55.400 --> 1:21:59.400 greens like when you're just hitting wedges in. But then 1:21:59.760 --> 1:22:03.400 like the problem is they're hitting wedges into all these 1:22:03.479 --> 1:22:07.120 par fours. But if you get all the greens super firm. 1:22:07.640 --> 1:22:14.400 Then people would complain that fifteen's unhittable, right and thirteen's unhittable. 1:22:14.080 --> 1:22:16.080 Or it's just you can't go for it, no go, 1:22:16.439 --> 1:22:20.000 And the drive on thirteen has never felt more consequential now, 1:22:20.200 --> 1:22:22.360 So it's interesting. I mean, Scotty hit a good drive 1:22:22.439 --> 1:22:25.360 there and had no chance to get to go to 1:22:25.439 --> 1:22:28.080 the green. Rory has an eight iron like it just 1:22:28.520 --> 1:22:32.000 like shot shape seems to matter. I'm not saying Scotty 1:22:32.000 --> 1:22:33.840 had a great like his best drive ever, but like 1:22:34.160 --> 1:22:37.360 he was miles away, didn't even pretend to go for 1:22:37.520 --> 1:22:40.680 the green thirteen. Rory got his shaped a little bit 1:22:40.760 --> 1:22:42.479 and has it. I think he said eight iron. Did 1:22:42.479 --> 1:22:45.040 you say eight iron? I think it'd like that's a 1:22:45.360 --> 1:22:50.120 that's a really consequential drive again, you know, as maybe 1:22:50.120 --> 1:22:52.200 they weren't always even him driver a few years ago. 1:22:52.320 --> 1:22:54.960 All right, that's the course. Why one more thing to 1:22:54.960 --> 1:22:58.439 support your uh, support your European greatest European golfer of 1:22:58.479 --> 1:23:01.080 all time, Luke Donald, who knows. I think he's a 1:23:01.120 --> 1:23:02.719 pretty contemplative voice. 1:23:03.120 --> 1:23:03.479 So we did. 1:23:03.600 --> 1:23:05.680 Tyne Sevy with two green jackets will mean a lot 1:23:05.760 --> 1:23:09.439 to Rory. He is undoubtedly the best European golfer of 1:23:09.520 --> 1:23:13.840 all time. Now, so you said emphatically, Luke donald says, 1:23:14.040 --> 1:23:17.080 undoubtedly the best European golfer of all time. So a 1:23:17.160 --> 1:23:21.200 lot of consequential golf was played today. We bring in 1:23:21.280 --> 1:23:23.080 the crew. Let's bring in the crew. 1:23:23.160 --> 1:23:25.760 Let's talk about, Uh, who do we wanna talk about? 1:23:25.760 --> 1:23:28.080 How Ton Lee? What are we bringing in the relief 1:23:28.120 --> 1:23:30.800 pictures to talk about how Ton kV V and Joseph 1:23:30.960 --> 1:23:35.800 Biden Read them in the newsletter? Read them in the newsletter. 1:23:36.439 --> 1:23:40.080 Kevin's got a feature piece coming on the day, probably 1:23:40.160 --> 1:23:45.160 on Rory maybe maybe just decided to hard left turn. 1:23:45.560 --> 1:23:48.479 I saw Joseph. I saw Joseph on nine Green. I 1:23:48.600 --> 1:23:50.400 walked up, first time i'd seen him day. I said, 1:23:50.479 --> 1:23:53.679 these are the four scariest words in sports. Here comes 1:23:53.800 --> 1:23:57.240 Russell Henley because he had taken the lead. Mama. I 1:23:57.320 --> 1:23:59.679 was like, you're in trouble now, baby. Henley's on the move. 1:24:00.360 --> 1:24:02.240 Kevin, Hey, peach, did you hear the big news? 1:24:03.400 --> 1:24:04.519 What it's the big news? 1:24:05.080 --> 1:24:06.840 I don't want to I don't want to interlude here, 1:24:06.920 --> 1:24:08.800 but I figured i'd sneak it in what is the 1:24:08.840 --> 1:24:11.680 big news? Well? Wne, I I did. I was going 1:24:11.760 --> 1:24:12.600 to bring this up to you. 1:24:13.160 --> 1:24:17.240 I was going to bring this up to you. That's big. 1:24:19.479 --> 1:24:21.920 I just wanted to give Joseph time to get in. 1:24:22.040 --> 1:24:23.280 He was moving like an old man. 1:24:23.400 --> 1:24:24.679 It's okay, it's fine. 1:24:24.800 --> 1:24:26.920 I knew we got the boys cam. Do we have 1:24:27.000 --> 1:24:27.360 the boys? 1:24:27.600 --> 1:24:27.680 Oh? 1:24:27.760 --> 1:24:28.800 We got boys cam live. 1:24:28.880 --> 1:24:31.000 Are the Boys getting old again? 1:24:31.040 --> 1:24:34.080 From just sting out there walking thirty six? The boys 1:24:34.120 --> 1:24:37.280 thought the leader, they thought they could be out here. 1:24:37.320 --> 1:24:38.360 They don't want to be out here. 1:24:38.439 --> 1:24:40.240 I think I think we did already. 1:24:40.760 --> 1:24:43.840 Boys. I mean, he let you guys kick this off here. 1:24:44.240 --> 1:24:47.040 Did you? Were you guys surprised by Jason Dave's performances today, 1:24:47.080 --> 1:24:48.720 because I was, no. 1:24:49.880 --> 1:24:50.919 No, not surprised. 1:24:51.240 --> 1:24:53.400 I only take a little bit of offense to you 1:24:53.479 --> 1:24:55.920 saying that we weren't Dolph fans back when Jason David 1:24:55.960 --> 1:24:56.200 was good. 1:24:56.320 --> 1:24:58.680 We remember Jason Day being good, and you know what. 1:24:58.880 --> 1:25:00.840 It was kind of a long time we go ten 1:25:00.960 --> 1:25:02.160 years actually, is what I was. 1:25:02.280 --> 1:25:05.760 It's gonna fly. Someday people will be the next version 1:25:05.800 --> 1:25:07.320 of the Boys. We'll be talking to you guys about 1:25:07.600 --> 1:25:08.559 what's Roy mack will I. 1:25:08.680 --> 1:25:16.519 Like, like, you know what, imagine imagine eight years from now, 1:25:16.600 --> 1:25:19.559 you're people. There's gonna be young pups that are gonna 1:25:19.560 --> 1:25:22.200 be like, you know, Cameron Young sucks and you're gonna 1:25:22.240 --> 1:25:22.720 have to eat it. 1:25:23.000 --> 1:25:26.160 I mean, braids blown is the greatest player of all time. 1:25:26.280 --> 1:25:28.640 You're about to be a knowwer, You're gonna have to This. 1:25:28.720 --> 1:25:29.799 Is really like a full circle. 1:25:29.880 --> 1:25:31.919 Like I kind of got into this in like fourteen 1:25:32.040 --> 1:25:34.439 when went on his run like that, Like I convinced 1:25:34.479 --> 1:25:37.519 me to like I really want to do golf for 1:25:37.560 --> 1:25:39.120 a living, but like, golf is what I want to do. 1:25:39.200 --> 1:25:41.800 I love writing about this guy winning majors. And now 1:25:41.840 --> 1:25:44.599 we got the boys on a similar event with Cam 1:25:44.800 --> 1:25:47.600 the winning players championships and being in the fight, and 1:25:47.680 --> 1:25:50.439 here we are, you know, twelve years later. 1:25:51.000 --> 1:25:53.960 It's fine, it's fine. You know he played well. I 1:25:54.000 --> 1:25:55.719 don't want to do you have any camp takes? 1:25:56.479 --> 1:25:59.799 No, I have a Seene Lowry take, which is shot. 1:26:01.320 --> 1:26:05.280 Now shot one hundred and sixty one on Sundays over 1:26:05.360 --> 1:26:07.160 the last two over the last. 1:26:07.240 --> 1:26:11.040 Year to eighty eighty versus the eighty one last year 1:26:11.080 --> 1:26:13.040 when he was pissed off that everybody's just asking him 1:26:13.040 --> 1:26:16.160 about Rory Shane Lowry speaking of things that happened ten 1:26:16.240 --> 1:26:20.000 years ago, Shane Lowry in the United States by himself. 1:26:20.600 --> 1:26:23.200 It's been ten years. You really don't like I just 1:26:23.560 --> 1:26:26.880 I'm just I'm He's a world class player, according to 1:26:26.960 --> 1:26:28.240 the media, did. 1:26:28.160 --> 1:26:30.640 You hear Roryd's quote, yeah, presser now. He said he 1:26:30.720 --> 1:26:32.360 was looking to asking if you were looking at scoreboards 1:26:32.400 --> 1:26:33.680 throughout the day, and he was like, yeah, I was 1:26:33.720 --> 1:26:35.479 looking up and I was going to see if how 1:26:35.520 --> 1:26:37.519 Shane was doing, because I thought, you know, it makes 1:26:37.520 --> 1:26:39.320 me feel good if I put the jacket on Shane. 1:26:39.360 --> 1:26:40.280 If I wasn't gonna win it. 1:26:40.479 --> 1:26:43.280 I was like, were taking Shane Lowry down? 1:26:43.439 --> 1:26:45.519 Shane shooting forty one on the front or whatever. 1:26:46.160 --> 1:26:47.719 I couldn't have been locked real. 1:26:47.640 --> 1:26:50.400 Long because he was up there until Shane Lowry was 1:26:50.479 --> 1:26:53.879 on the thirteenth green looking at the scoreboard behind fourteen 1:26:53.960 --> 1:26:55.920 T and that's when they took him down. 1:26:56.080 --> 1:26:59.040 Hey, Joseph, I got I gotta ask you a question 1:26:59.200 --> 1:27:03.160 from at six one, two six eight. How was downtown Augusta. 1:27:04.560 --> 1:27:05.400 We didn't really make it. 1:27:08.000 --> 1:27:11.840 Knot room we wanted. 1:27:11.960 --> 1:27:13.919 I'd say, we want too much to downtown. 1:27:15.439 --> 1:27:17.840 Not as cool as downtown Port Rush, but it's up there. 1:27:19.280 --> 1:27:25.719 Love that love that. keV Early reactions or immediate reactions 1:27:25.840 --> 1:27:27.639 the day we will read your piece in the morning 1:27:27.800 --> 1:27:28.479 or even this evening. 1:27:28.560 --> 1:27:30.320 Yeah, I think you know, you guys touched on it 1:27:30.360 --> 1:27:32.760 a lot. But this to me just represents like the 1:27:32.880 --> 1:27:36.840 evolution of Rory McElroy the thinker. Like obviously that was 1:27:37.080 --> 1:27:40.240 coming over time, but you know, he didn't have to 1:27:40.320 --> 1:27:43.360 rely on like these prodigious gifts that had always kind 1:27:43.400 --> 1:27:46.120 of given him this kind of aura, right, this ethereal 1:27:46.200 --> 1:27:48.679 quality of who he was as a player. This was gritty, 1:27:49.000 --> 1:27:51.400 This was grinded out. This was like, hold on your 1:27:51.479 --> 1:27:54.640 nuts and absolutely find a way to make pars. And 1:27:54.720 --> 1:27:57.560 I think there's something kind of really admiral about that, 1:27:57.760 --> 1:28:00.559 Like you don't have to win majors every single way. 1:28:00.640 --> 1:28:03.200 Tiger showed us that that sometimes you're gonna be awesome 1:28:03.240 --> 1:28:06.160 and sometimes you're just gonna outlast everyone, grind them to death. 1:28:06.880 --> 1:28:08.920 And I think he has You know, you should feel 1:28:08.960 --> 1:28:12.439 really proud of the fact that he's now this kind 1:28:12.479 --> 1:28:15.680 of player who can do this different ways. You know, 1:28:15.920 --> 1:28:18.160 there was a time I remember sitting Bernie, you bring 1:28:18.280 --> 1:28:20.200 up fourteen. I remember sitting in the Chambers Bay press 1:28:20.240 --> 1:28:22.720 conference and he was like, yeah, I'm just gonna be 1:28:22.840 --> 1:28:25.040 kind of a volatile player. I'm gonna miss three cuts 1:28:25.080 --> 1:28:27.160 in a row, and then I'm gonna win three things 1:28:27.200 --> 1:28:28.519 in a row. And when I can get on those 1:28:28.560 --> 1:28:30.519 hot streaks, it's gonna be great. And I don't really 1:28:30.600 --> 1:28:33.200 care about the bad ones. And then he went through 1:28:33.240 --> 1:28:36.240 that stretch of US opens post Chambers. But it whereas 1:28:36.360 --> 1:28:40.439 like Shinnecock Oakmont, you know, Aaron Hills, bad, bad, bad, 1:28:40.560 --> 1:28:43.519 like really embarrassing sort of performances for a player of 1:28:43.640 --> 1:28:46.400 his caliber to miss three US opens in a row. 1:28:46.520 --> 1:28:48.240 And now he is just not that guy. I mean, 1:28:48.280 --> 1:28:51.120 he is the person who absolutely is gonna be in 1:28:51.240 --> 1:28:54.080 the fight, you know, a lot if he has any 1:28:54.200 --> 1:28:56.519 kind of game. And I just think that this performance 1:28:56.640 --> 1:28:58.679 was it was cool to watch. I mean, I remember 1:28:59.120 --> 1:29:02.360 last year will always be special because because of what 1:29:02.479 --> 1:29:05.400 it represented. But this one, man, this one was grinding, 1:29:05.439 --> 1:29:06.080 gritty effort. 1:29:06.560 --> 1:29:09.759 I feel like the part that maybe hasn't been discussed 1:29:09.800 --> 1:29:12.840 on this podcast at length yet is that there are 1:29:12.880 --> 1:29:15.759 some players who really let this slip out of their grasp, 1:29:15.960 --> 1:29:20.120 Like Justin Rose had this tournament and completely let it 1:29:20.160 --> 1:29:21.640 get away. And there are a couple other guys you 1:29:21.680 --> 1:29:23.560 talked about Cam missing all the putts. 1:29:23.560 --> 1:29:27.559 Justin Rose is a pretender, well according to some people. 1:29:28.160 --> 1:29:31.479 But the point in speaking to what Kevin's getting at, like, 1:29:32.680 --> 1:29:34.840 it's about getting it done, whether you have your a 1:29:35.040 --> 1:29:37.719 game or you don't. And I feel like previous versions 1:29:37.760 --> 1:29:40.360 of Rory, less complete versions of Rory would not have 1:29:40.560 --> 1:29:43.400 won today when you're scrapping it around on the weekend, 1:29:43.439 --> 1:29:45.800 and he was kind of scrapping it around throughout the 1:29:45.840 --> 1:29:46.519 weekend on. 1:29:46.560 --> 1:29:49.719 The weekend a week yeah, yeah, yeah, but especially Saturday. 1:29:49.880 --> 1:29:51.880 Well, I mean, let's just talk in general, like he's 1:29:51.920 --> 1:29:53.840 learned how to be a better wedge player, right, He's 1:29:53.920 --> 1:29:56.120 learned how to have all different kinds of trajectories with 1:29:56.200 --> 1:29:59.240 his irons. He when he needed a drive on seventeen 1:29:59.240 --> 1:30:02.280 when he couldn't afford and notother thing. Absolutely let this 1:30:02.439 --> 1:30:04.920 low bullet down of a tee shot that bugged him 1:30:05.360 --> 1:30:08.240 really for the last two years. It's just that player 1:30:09.000 --> 1:30:11.920 is so different than the twenty fourteen, twenty fifteen version 1:30:11.960 --> 1:30:14.320 who was like, fit, let's tee at high and just 1:30:14.680 --> 1:30:16.760 bang it down there. And I'm confident I can hit 1:30:16.840 --> 1:30:19.920 this big ass draw and just nail it down there 1:30:20.120 --> 1:30:22.439 ninety percent of the time, and that was that worked 1:30:22.479 --> 1:30:24.559 for a long time for him, But the golf has changed. 1:30:24.640 --> 1:30:27.799 Like as you guys talked a lot about the agronomy stuff, 1:30:27.880 --> 1:30:30.960 like you know, because the players can hit it so far, 1:30:31.400 --> 1:30:33.600 they have to push the course to the edge. And 1:30:33.680 --> 1:30:35.120 I got some of the set up stuff. I just 1:30:35.240 --> 1:30:38.400 am confused by because like it's not like anybody shot 1:30:38.479 --> 1:30:40.280 the course record this week because all this idea that 1:30:40.400 --> 1:30:44.560 is like so easy out there. It was okay, but 1:30:44.720 --> 1:30:46.240 like did shuffer shoot sixty two? 1:30:46.479 --> 1:30:50.280 Like on Saturday's movie day, Like isn't like the history 1:30:50.320 --> 1:30:53.160 of the Masters on Saturday, Like that's the day people 1:30:53.320 --> 1:30:56.519 go get it, you know, and there's just a little 1:30:56.640 --> 1:30:57.920 moves on the on the board. 1:30:58.000 --> 1:31:00.560 You want excitement, right, you want? I mean, you know, 1:31:00.680 --> 1:31:03.200 Phil was complaining about how there wasn't any eagles or whatever. 1:31:03.360 --> 1:31:05.479 But it's like all of a sudden, it's like the 1:31:05.600 --> 1:31:07.800 truth with Garrett dug Into is like yeah there. It 1:31:08.000 --> 1:31:10.160 is kind of like a momentous decision again, Like it 1:31:10.320 --> 1:31:12.800 is kind of hard to go for those greens and two. 1:31:12.840 --> 1:31:15.439 It's it's it's not like when they were hitting four 1:31:15.479 --> 1:31:17.760 woods into it in you know, the seventies, But it 1:31:17.960 --> 1:31:19.800 is like there's a lot of risk involved, and I 1:31:19.880 --> 1:31:23.519 think I just don't I can't get like behind, you 1:31:23.600 --> 1:31:25.519 know when the score is what it is, like it's 1:31:25.760 --> 1:31:28.960 it was twelve under. He won that, Like what are 1:31:29.000 --> 1:31:31.280 we asking for? Like do we really like is it 1:31:31.360 --> 1:31:34.479 gonna is six under? Is that a better Masters? I 1:31:34.600 --> 1:31:37.000 just feel like they kind of got the balance pretty right, 1:31:37.000 --> 1:31:38.160 and they have for the last four years. 1:31:38.160 --> 1:31:40.639 Well matter where do you land on the course this course, 1:31:40.720 --> 1:31:41.840 we don't need to go too heavy. 1:31:41.880 --> 1:31:43.320 Where did you land? From a data? 1:31:43.600 --> 1:31:48.599 I empathize with Scotti's viewpoint that Yeah, conditions were fairly 1:31:48.720 --> 1:31:52.639 similar both days, and the course played quite softer on Friday, 1:31:52.720 --> 1:31:55.720 Like I would probably be frustrating his position. But if 1:31:55.760 --> 1:31:58.720 you were out there, if you're watching the shots traffic cop, 1:31:59.040 --> 1:32:01.360 the margins were super slim. 1:32:01.640 --> 1:32:04.639 Maybe may if JL i'ms joining the four. The margins 1:32:04.680 --> 1:32:05.320 were super slow. 1:32:05.360 --> 1:32:06.320 The margins were slim. 1:32:06.439 --> 1:32:09.519 I mean we watched how Tung Lee put on thirteen 1:32:09.680 --> 1:32:11.600 like up and over and down into the water, and 1:32:11.680 --> 1:32:13.519 it wasn't like his putt was carrying a ton of 1:32:13.600 --> 1:32:16.000 paste over. It's not like the greens were slow. The 1:32:16.080 --> 1:32:18.719 greens were fast. It was firm fifteen you could barely 1:32:18.800 --> 1:32:21.240 hold again, you guys touched on it, but this is 1:32:21.280 --> 1:32:22.679 a conversation about equipment. 1:32:22.720 --> 1:32:24.640 I think it's Scotty's in case in general. You know, 1:32:24.760 --> 1:32:27.600 he the reason obviously, you guys, this happened before I 1:32:27.680 --> 1:32:30.120 came on the like to the company. But like he 1:32:30.680 --> 1:32:35.479 has in his mind, he just loves fairness, right, He's 1:32:35.560 --> 1:32:38.280 so annoyed, more annoyed than other people by a gust 1:32:38.320 --> 1:32:38.839 of wind. 1:32:38.920 --> 1:32:41.240 Or a huge stickler for fairness. 1:32:41.280 --> 1:32:44.000 If he would love it if the conditions were exactly 1:32:44.040 --> 1:32:45.960 the same for everyone. That's why he was kind of, 1:32:46.160 --> 1:32:48.000 you know, complaining why I like ball in hand or 1:32:48.000 --> 1:32:50.920 whatever the PGA, And I think it obviously it's because 1:32:50.920 --> 1:32:54.040 he's just so frickin talented. He knows that his talent 1:32:54.520 --> 1:32:57.599 will kind of outlast every almost every single person if 1:32:57.960 --> 1:32:59.760 the things are all things are equal, And he's such 1:32:59.760 --> 1:33:02.320 a competitive person that what he wants is like a 1:33:02.439 --> 1:33:05.320 fair stage. He wants to basically be at the Olympics 1:33:05.360 --> 1:33:07.400 where you line up and run the exact same hundred 1:33:07.400 --> 1:33:10.679 meters that everyone else does, and that's just not golf. 1:33:10.920 --> 1:33:13.519 I well, I think he wants that because he's the 1:33:13.640 --> 1:33:18.360 best executor. Yeah, I like, if you just stood on 1:33:18.479 --> 1:33:21.160 a driving range and said, hit shots at this flag. 1:33:21.400 --> 1:33:23.040 I think Scotty would win all the time. 1:33:23.200 --> 1:33:26.280 Yeah, what's that tailor made video where he like hitting 1:33:26.320 --> 1:33:28.040 him on the launch monitor and like how far is 1:33:28.080 --> 1:33:31.040 that going on? And it's like comes up on track 1:33:31.120 --> 1:33:33.960 man one fifteen three oh two, three oh two, like 1:33:34.040 --> 1:33:36.360 he can. He's so good at knowing exactly the right 1:33:36.439 --> 1:33:39.240 yardage to hit it to that without any elements of course, 1:33:39.240 --> 1:33:40.120 he's going to hit flags. 1:33:40.280 --> 1:33:43.519 You gotta wonder why is he not playing TGL if 1:33:43.560 --> 1:33:45.760 he just wants, you know, Dome Golf. 1:33:46.400 --> 1:33:47.880 Joseph where numbers aren't correct? 1:33:48.080 --> 1:33:49.240 A tg aleged Joseph. 1:33:49.280 --> 1:33:52.120 Where are you landing with Cameron right now after the day? Uh, 1:33:52.200 --> 1:33:54.080 he's out there with you for a good portion. 1:33:55.920 --> 1:33:58.679 I think when we just say somebody just missed putts, 1:33:58.920 --> 1:34:02.720 like there's truth to it, but also, you know, I 1:34:02.760 --> 1:34:07.000 feel like it sometimes abdicates the quality of the putts, Like, yeah, 1:34:07.240 --> 1:34:09.120 Cameron missed a lot of putts down the stretch that 1:34:09.160 --> 1:34:10.960 he probably should have made one or two. 1:34:11.280 --> 1:34:12.240 Yeah, And I think. 1:34:12.400 --> 1:34:15.479 Reading his quotes, he more or less felt like he 1:34:15.600 --> 1:34:17.000 did everything he needed to win. I don't know if 1:34:17.040 --> 1:34:18.599 you guys have had a chance to read his quick quotes, 1:34:18.640 --> 1:34:21.040 but he was basically like, I hit the ball well 1:34:21.120 --> 1:34:22.559 enough to win by multiple shots. 1:34:22.960 --> 1:34:27.280 So he did No, I agree, I agree, but he didn't. 1:34:27.360 --> 1:34:28.880 He didn't get it done, and I felt like there 1:34:28.960 --> 1:34:32.080 was a little bit of a lack of that X 1:34:32.240 --> 1:34:34.840 factor down the stretch to carry a couple No, no, 1:34:35.040 --> 1:34:35.800 not a house cat. 1:34:35.960 --> 1:34:38.920 Not a house cat by any means a house cat. 1:34:39.439 --> 1:34:43.639 Young lion, young lion, Yeah, young, you're not young lion. 1:34:43.800 --> 1:34:47.439 Maybe maybe a bigger cat. 1:34:47.720 --> 1:34:51.760 I'm excited for Cat's part two. We've had any conversations, 1:34:51.920 --> 1:34:52.519 it's coming out. 1:34:52.800 --> 1:34:55.080 I think he could be like maybe like a panther, 1:34:55.920 --> 1:34:58.840 a young panther that got bad. 1:34:59.280 --> 1:35:02.920 Honestly, I think Cameron Young. That's obviously a huge part 1:35:02.960 --> 1:35:04.960 of the stories in the final group. But what Rose 1:35:05.320 --> 1:35:07.680 Rose letting this one slip away? To me, it was 1:35:07.720 --> 1:35:09.280 probably the biggest takeaway. 1:35:08.880 --> 1:35:09.280 Of the day. 1:35:09.360 --> 1:35:11.080 Had the lead gone to the ten ticks, he chipped 1:35:11.120 --> 1:35:12.920 one back to his feet on number three. 1:35:13.240 --> 1:35:15.720 The chip on twelve was horrid. I mean that just 1:35:15.760 --> 1:35:17.280 resulted in a bogie, but the. 1:35:17.320 --> 1:35:19.320 Chip on eleven was bad, and he talked to Tori 1:35:19.439 --> 1:35:21.280 that his short game still needs to be cleaned up. 1:35:21.280 --> 1:35:22.560 If he wants to have a chance to win some 1:35:22.680 --> 1:35:24.759 of these, and that really did cost him today. 1:35:25.080 --> 1:35:28.320 I think, you know, I truly believe you guys are 1:35:28.360 --> 1:35:31.519 right and the Cam is gonna win a couple majors. 1:35:31.640 --> 1:35:33.519 I think two would be a good number. I think 1:35:33.520 --> 1:35:36.280 he's he's shown that much game. You have to get 1:35:36.320 --> 1:35:37.960 in the mix a little bit at Augusta, I think 1:35:38.040 --> 1:35:41.280 to kind of understand all of the feels of that pressure, 1:35:41.439 --> 1:35:44.120 and the bogie on seven was not a particularly good one. 1:35:44.920 --> 1:35:47.400 That's where it started to sort of slip a little bit. 1:35:47.439 --> 1:35:50.639 For Yeah, back back to back six and seven. 1:35:50.920 --> 1:35:53.519 What was ke You've You've covered so many of these 1:35:53.600 --> 1:35:55.720 majors and these major Sundays in major mount What was 1:35:55.760 --> 1:35:56.639 your like approach today? 1:35:56.640 --> 1:35:56.800 Andy? 1:35:56.840 --> 1:35:59.280 I talked about bouncing around, like where what was your 1:35:59.360 --> 1:35:59.880 like feel of. 1:36:01.040 --> 1:36:02.880 I walked the whole front nine with Rory and Cam, 1:36:03.280 --> 1:36:06.360 and I just felt like I could see Rose, I 1:36:06.360 --> 1:36:08.160 could see Cheffer climbing, and I was like, I have 1:36:08.320 --> 1:36:10.400 to like see the big picture of this. I mean, 1:36:10.439 --> 1:36:12.760 I've I walked all eight team with Rory last year, 1:36:12.840 --> 1:36:15.000 and so I thought, you know, even if Rory wins, 1:36:15.080 --> 1:36:16.960 this is never going to like live up till last 1:36:17.000 --> 1:36:19.439 year's kind of thing. So I I ducked in the 1:36:19.479 --> 1:36:21.400 media center and just started taking notes and kind of 1:36:21.400 --> 1:36:24.559 seeing the whole board. I knew you guys were out watching. 1:36:24.680 --> 1:36:26.160 I was like, you guys can get a lot of color, 1:36:26.200 --> 1:36:27.719 but I need to be able to see the chess board. 1:36:28.040 --> 1:36:29.599 That's rare for me because I kind of hate being 1:36:29.640 --> 1:36:32.600 inside and like not feeling this sort of thing like 1:36:32.680 --> 1:36:35.640 that the cigar detailed smoke that's that is right in 1:36:35.760 --> 1:36:37.880 my alley of like the kind of shit that I love. 1:36:38.520 --> 1:36:41.320 And I feel like a little bummed that I wasn't, 1:36:41.439 --> 1:36:43.759 you know, there to sort of see this scene on eighteen. 1:36:44.280 --> 1:36:46.240 But I also by that time, I was like when 1:36:46.280 --> 1:36:48.360 he hit the pun on seventeen, I was like, gosh, 1:36:48.479 --> 1:36:50.600 I'd run out to eighteen and sort of see this 1:36:51.080 --> 1:36:53.599 whether it's a disaster or whether it's a triumph unfold 1:36:54.000 --> 1:36:55.240 and I just thought, you know what, I got to 1:36:55.280 --> 1:36:58.320 sit in here, but go ahead. You know what. 1:36:58.400 --> 1:37:03.400 One of my big takeaways was, I think Augusta National 1:37:03.920 --> 1:37:06.240 it just golf in general, but it's ramped up at 1:37:06.240 --> 1:37:10.040 Augusta National. It is so hard to play three great 1:37:10.120 --> 1:37:12.680 rounds in a row. And if you look at everybody 1:37:13.200 --> 1:37:17.200 that's on this leader board. They effectively just had one 1:37:19.439 --> 1:37:23.360 mediocre round mixed in here, and that's the difference. Scotty, 1:37:23.400 --> 1:37:27.240 it's the seventy four in round two, you know, Rory 1:37:27.400 --> 1:37:29.920 is the seventy three in round three. Then you go 1:37:30.040 --> 1:37:34.040 down to Cam. Cam's was today really in round one? 1:37:34.200 --> 1:37:38.760 An He's sensational in between, right, That's basically like and 1:37:38.960 --> 1:37:42.160 Justin Rose ironically was like, you know, he just didn't 1:37:42.200 --> 1:37:45.200 have the one great round. You know that was the 1:37:45.320 --> 1:37:48.439 putter never allowed him to have the one great round 1:37:48.840 --> 1:37:51.160 this week. And I think that's the thing with Justin Rose. 1:37:51.560 --> 1:37:53.840 At various points today I thought Rory was gonna win. 1:37:54.000 --> 1:37:56.560 I thought Rory was gonna lose. Would everybody agree with that? 1:37:56.680 --> 1:37:58.320 Were there was there a point today where you didn't 1:37:58.320 --> 1:37:59.120 think Rory was gonna win? 1:37:59.160 --> 1:38:00.439 What you made the double on four? 1:38:00.840 --> 1:38:02.760 I was like, yeah, I don't know this based off 1:38:02.840 --> 1:38:04.479 SATURDAYX six For me, I. 1:38:04.560 --> 1:38:07.200 Was like, ugh, six, I felt like he hit a 1:38:07.240 --> 1:38:09.080 good iron shot there, just won a couple of yards 1:38:09.160 --> 1:38:11.160 too far. But the iron shot on four was not 1:38:11.320 --> 1:38:13.720 good and the chip was almost went in, but then 1:38:13.720 --> 1:38:15.519 the first pot was bad and then to mix the 1:38:15.600 --> 1:38:16.360 next one I was like. 1:38:16.760 --> 1:38:18.800 What about you, La, Did you ever think Roy was 1:38:18.880 --> 1:38:19.360 not gonna win? 1:38:19.479 --> 1:38:19.599 Oh? 1:38:19.720 --> 1:38:21.519 Yeah, When I saw the double go up on four, 1:38:21.600 --> 1:38:24.080 I didn't. I didn't think it was over, but I 1:38:24.120 --> 1:38:28.519 mean Cam and Justin because Justin Rose hit the shot 1:38:28.560 --> 1:38:32.439 on seven very shortly after that, one of the craziest shots. 1:38:32.439 --> 1:38:33.840 I was right behind him when he hit it was 1:38:33.840 --> 1:38:36.720 aimed thirty yards left of the green, peels it back 1:38:36.760 --> 1:38:39.320 to six inches and is strutting up to the eighth 1:38:39.400 --> 1:38:41.719 tea box like it was in his hands. 1:38:41.960 --> 1:38:43.720 Can I have a question for you guys. I was 1:38:44.040 --> 1:38:47.320 next to eight green when Cam hit that chip from 1:38:47.400 --> 1:38:50.400 over there, and I couldn't really see because you know, 1:38:50.479 --> 1:38:52.720 it was kind of hiding the people. Everyone thought that 1:38:52.880 --> 1:38:55.120 he hit like a shank there, but it seemed like he. 1:38:55.240 --> 1:38:56.840 Was trying to back. 1:38:56.920 --> 1:39:00.599 Then Cam practiced that shot for about ten minutes during Okay. 1:39:00.439 --> 1:39:02.559 It just sounded a little clunky and everyone went ooh, 1:39:02.680 --> 1:39:04.160 And I was like, I don't there's no way he 1:39:04.320 --> 1:39:06.720 shanked that right like, and it was. It was an 1:39:06.800 --> 1:39:09.240 awesome play. Then to sort of bring that back, I 1:39:09.880 --> 1:39:12.160 you know, Ry hit a great shot in there, and 1:39:12.200 --> 1:39:14.840 it kind of was a pretty weak eagle putt, but 1:39:14.960 --> 1:39:16.639 that was kind of like at least like those two 1:39:16.680 --> 1:39:18.760 in a row sort of felt like got the round. 1:39:18.960 --> 1:39:20.400 So it's a day. I think when we all felt 1:39:20.439 --> 1:39:23.200 like Rory could win, Cam could win, there was a 1:39:23.240 --> 1:39:25.519 moment we thought Cam was gonna win. I would say, 1:39:25.520 --> 1:39:28.559 object just jumping and object when everything rose was gonna win. 1:39:28.600 --> 1:39:31.240 I think we all thought there was a moment there, Scotty, 1:39:31.400 --> 1:39:33.160 anyone object? Did you just say, Scotty? 1:39:33.160 --> 1:39:36.040 I think after he birdied three, I was like, oh, 1:39:36.840 --> 1:39:37.760 he's coming. 1:39:37.920 --> 1:39:41.120 Yeay, he just I thought when he birdied fifteen sixteen, 1:39:41.280 --> 1:39:42.600 I mean, I know that's late in the game, but 1:39:43.280 --> 1:39:44.840 I don't know how much you guys saw his third 1:39:44.880 --> 1:39:47.040 shot into fifteen. Did you see that? 1:39:47.360 --> 1:39:49.479 Yeah? I just I thought it was too late because 1:39:49.520 --> 1:39:52.760 at that point Rory was already like he needed a 1:39:52.800 --> 1:39:53.320 birdie out. 1:39:53.439 --> 1:39:55.080 In my mind, it was too late. 1:39:55.600 --> 1:39:58.479 On thirteen fairway, I thought there was a chance that 1:39:58.479 --> 1:40:01.240 Scotty Scheffler, Yeah, that was the first time early in 1:40:01.280 --> 1:40:02.840 the round is like it was a possibility. But on 1:40:02.960 --> 1:40:06.120 thirteen fairway, if he makes either birdy or eagle. 1:40:06.479 --> 1:40:08.120 How was that dry so far back? 1:40:08.200 --> 1:40:08.400 Yep? 1:40:08.479 --> 1:40:09.800 Did he hit threewood or something? 1:40:09.920 --> 1:40:10.599 That was so fun. 1:40:10.640 --> 1:40:11.840 He was right in the middle of the fairway and 1:40:11.920 --> 1:40:14.280 there was no even thought about trying to sling a draw. 1:40:14.360 --> 1:40:15.280 I didn't see the t show. 1:40:15.320 --> 1:40:17.519 He was really far back. I mean, must have been 1:40:17.560 --> 1:40:20.560 fifty yards the day a couple of days ago he 1:40:20.640 --> 1:40:24.000 had that driving iron into it. I it's a really 1:40:24.080 --> 1:40:27.679 hard shot for Scotty because if he wants to get 1:40:27.800 --> 1:40:29.639 in a good spot, he has to turn the ball over, 1:40:29.760 --> 1:40:32.000 which he doesn't doesn't really like to do. 1:40:32.880 --> 1:40:35.400 Other other notes, you guys want onload, I think we 1:40:35.439 --> 1:40:37.200 could do. I have a couple of quick grades. I 1:40:37.240 --> 1:40:41.120 want to get to Tyrrel Hadden Wikipedia yellow, the definition 1:40:41.240 --> 1:40:42.280 of Wikipedia yellow. 1:40:42.800 --> 1:40:44.240 I mean more call finishing. 1:40:46.320 --> 1:40:49.240 He gets an absolutely ad Fleetwood. 1:40:49.320 --> 1:40:52.160 Fleetwood was pretty. He was in the mix for a 1:40:52.200 --> 1:40:53.679 little bit and then totally ejected. 1:40:53.800 --> 1:40:55.360 He gets a bat that was yesterday. 1:40:55.560 --> 1:40:55.760 Yeah. 1:40:56.400 --> 1:40:59.840 Max Helma with like the most irrelevant top ten you know. 1:41:00.000 --> 1:41:02.760 But though Max has been a long time from like 1:41:02.880 --> 1:41:05.559 sniffing any like top tens of a major, he played 1:41:05.720 --> 1:41:08.160 really well and I think I know just if you 1:41:08.280 --> 1:41:11.080 don't like to think he's a he's a placer level 1:41:11.160 --> 1:41:14.639 PJ Tour player, but here he plays good golf. Here 1:41:14.760 --> 1:41:18.320 and like, I think that speaks something to his imagination 1:41:18.439 --> 1:41:18.960 in his game. 1:41:19.160 --> 1:41:20.960 A certain media member, there's just three. 1:41:20.840 --> 1:41:22.919 Top tens now the Master, three top fifteens. 1:41:22.960 --> 1:41:25.400 A certain media member did pose a question to me 1:41:25.600 --> 1:41:29.519 that could Max Homa be the first guy to qualify 1:41:29.960 --> 1:41:32.760 like via top twelve in the Masters, but also lose 1:41:32.800 --> 1:41:34.000 his tour card in the same year. 1:41:34.800 --> 1:41:37.360 I guarantee that that would not be. There's plenty of 1:41:37.439 --> 1:41:39.479 dudes back in the day. He would take top sixteen 1:41:39.720 --> 1:41:41.640 at the and the Masters come back. 1:41:41.880 --> 1:41:45.880 I mean, you know a couple others the can't lay 1:41:46.000 --> 1:41:48.600 T twelve. He might not. He might not qualify for 1:41:48.680 --> 1:41:49.840 the Masters next year. 1:41:50.000 --> 1:41:52.960 Speakless other than the T twelve, speakless tea. 1:41:54.640 --> 1:41:55.920 Some really good golf is kind of I. 1:41:59.160 --> 1:42:02.240 Always said, he said, I've never hit it better, even 1:42:02.280 --> 1:42:04.479 in the years when I like other maybe other than 1:42:04.479 --> 1:42:06.280 the year I won, I've never hit it better than 1:42:06.320 --> 1:42:08.439 I hit it this week, putting was bad. 1:42:08.560 --> 1:42:10.720 Where are you guys with read and burns? Are we 1:42:10.920 --> 1:42:13.280 giving burns? Burns probably gets a positive mark? 1:42:13.479 --> 1:42:14.400 Is he finished? 1:42:14.439 --> 1:42:17.559 He seven bad Sunday? I know that the taste about 1:42:17.560 --> 1:42:17.880 the time. 1:42:18.320 --> 1:42:21.160 Didn't get that, didn't get that for the No, he 1:42:21.439 --> 1:42:22.679 just he made a bad arrest. 1:42:22.760 --> 1:42:24.840 He was super he rested the wrong guy. 1:42:25.000 --> 1:42:26.880 I did think, briefly though, because we did the eighty 1:42:26.880 --> 1:42:30.840 six rewatch when Burns birdied sixteen on that like fifty footer, 1:42:31.400 --> 1:42:33.040 I was like, whoa, what if he makes another birdie? 1:42:33.040 --> 1:42:34.240 And then he's like, all of a sudden like tom 1:42:34.320 --> 1:42:36.400 Kite like putting for the lead, and everyone's like, where 1:42:36.439 --> 1:42:37.360 did this guy come from? 1:42:37.479 --> 1:42:39.720 Well, he was what we watched him on seventeen. I 1:42:39.800 --> 1:42:41.240 was like, consequential putting. 1:42:43.840 --> 1:42:48.840 Yeah, So apparently that was not on the broadcast at all. 1:42:49.320 --> 1:42:50.200 The Double Kid. 1:42:50.479 --> 1:42:56.639 They showed him teeing off and then not mentioned anything 1:42:56.720 --> 1:42:57.160 that happened. 1:42:57.640 --> 1:42:59.120 Has there been any broadcast takes yet? 1:43:01.920 --> 1:43:02.519 Seven Holes? 1:43:02.720 --> 1:43:05.599 Honestly, I look, it wasn't great. There was a lot 1:43:05.680 --> 1:43:08.960 of frustrating things on the back nine, I mean losing shots, 1:43:09.200 --> 1:43:12.400 like completely losing track of players. It just was like 1:43:12.840 --> 1:43:16.320 a weird year for CBS. I didn't quite understand what 1:43:16.600 --> 1:43:18.880 was going on exactly, but they were I mean they 1:43:19.120 --> 1:43:20.960 did they I don't even think they talked really about 1:43:21.280 --> 1:43:24.240 Scotty getting jammed by how Song for like ten minutes. 1:43:24.400 --> 1:43:27.320 It was so ten is a generous just when I 1:43:27.360 --> 1:43:28.160 were there it was twenty. 1:43:28.240 --> 1:43:30.559 I also think he might have taken a stinky drop still, 1:43:31.640 --> 1:43:32.040 but at. 1:43:31.960 --> 1:43:34.599 That I just wanted him taking any drop to move 1:43:34.680 --> 1:43:37.000 the proceed, like literally throw the ball in the hole 1:43:37.040 --> 1:43:39.000 because I was not gonna win, Like just throw it 1:43:39.080 --> 1:43:39.519 on the ground. 1:43:39.520 --> 1:43:41.560 I was watching the Aim and Corner feed and I 1:43:41.640 --> 1:43:43.360 kept looking back to it, and I was because I 1:43:43.400 --> 1:43:45.559 was trying to pay attention to Scotty, and the broadcast 1:43:45.720 --> 1:43:47.760 was like they didn't go back to Scotty forever. I 1:43:47.800 --> 1:43:49.519 couldn't figure out one, so I flipped it over and 1:43:49.600 --> 1:43:51.400 you could just see how tong like wandering through the 1:43:51.479 --> 1:43:54.040 bushes doing you know, and then he's like twenty three. 1:43:55.320 --> 1:43:57.000 It just felt like there should have been a discussion 1:43:57.040 --> 1:43:59.519 about that of like, hey, Scott Shffler has a real 1:43:59.600 --> 1:44:01.160 chance to win the Masters and having to wait like 1:44:01.200 --> 1:44:03.080 twenty minutes to hit his second shot on thirteen. 1:44:03.200 --> 1:44:05.400 At one point picked up his ball to take an 1:44:05.439 --> 1:44:07.720 unplayable and I think he was incorrect about where he 1:44:07.800 --> 1:44:10.040 could take it and had to go back after he'd 1:44:10.040 --> 1:44:10.760 already picked it up. 1:44:10.800 --> 1:44:11.360 It was a scene. 1:44:11.600 --> 1:44:13.599 He's a character, I mean, he was. He definitely made 1:44:13.640 --> 1:44:16.160 me laugh with all that stuff about pooping his brains 1:44:16.160 --> 1:44:19.679 out all week. But you know that was not exactly 1:44:20.000 --> 1:44:21.720 It was a bit unbecoming when you're playing with a 1:44:21.760 --> 1:44:23.439 guy who's like truly in contention. 1:44:23.600 --> 1:44:25.839 Poor marks for day, poor marks for reed. 1:44:27.200 --> 1:44:28.000 Just disappeared. 1:44:29.680 --> 1:44:34.080 Yeah, he did his sponsor obligation Friday night and touched 1:44:34.120 --> 1:44:37.679 the sun and this the jet they flew literally flew 1:44:37.720 --> 1:44:40.439 out his Vesta jet to the Sun with the Hatten. 1:44:41.040 --> 1:44:44.560 The Hatten T four or whatever T three I will like, 1:44:44.720 --> 1:44:46.760 remember it's the mostly consequent T three. 1:44:46.800 --> 1:44:50.720 I'm sorry speaking of inconsequential T T threes. The rust Bus, 1:44:51.360 --> 1:44:52.559 I mean rust Buss. 1:44:53.000 --> 1:44:57.280 There were shades of of the Ryder Cup where Russ 1:44:57.400 --> 1:45:00.040 is surging into the end of contention and then and 1:45:00.160 --> 1:45:02.880 all of a sudden, he just starts hitting terrible Potts 1:45:02.960 --> 1:45:03.400 hand up. 1:45:03.479 --> 1:45:06.439 Like just watching the board speaking of people who you 1:45:06.560 --> 1:45:09.479 ever thought had a chance to win. I was, I 1:45:09.640 --> 1:45:12.240 was worried about the existence of no no, no, I 1:45:12.560 --> 1:45:14.880 just I He just got to ten so quick, and 1:45:14.960 --> 1:45:16.760 I was like, I haven't watched Russell Henley in his 1:45:16.800 --> 1:45:19.120 shot all week. I don't know what. I don't have 1:45:19.200 --> 1:45:20.040 anything to comment on. 1:45:20.280 --> 1:45:23.840 Listen what what REI said in the pre tournament about 1:45:23.840 --> 1:45:26.559 there being ten to twelve players that could win the tournament. 1:45:27.120 --> 1:45:30.920 It's so true. And of the people that finished on 1:45:31.040 --> 1:45:34.120 the board, I think it's like Rory Scheffler. I don't 1:45:34.120 --> 1:45:40.240 think Hatton is going to win the Masters personally, Justin Rose, 1:45:40.400 --> 1:45:43.599 Cameron Young and that was that was it. Those four. 1:45:43.680 --> 1:45:46.000 It felt like through the day at one point or another, 1:45:46.280 --> 1:45:49.479 and like that Xander Schoffley didn't play well enough, and 1:45:50.360 --> 1:45:53.720 you know, and then you go down and John Ram, 1:45:54.160 --> 1:45:56.320 John Ram shot a nice sixty eight. We're going to 1:45:56.360 --> 1:46:01.559 get into thirty eight. Yeah, great live golf grade. Well, 1:46:01.600 --> 1:46:04.920 they disaster, they had a podium finished, they got a podium. 1:46:07.120 --> 1:46:09.680 I mean my younger days. This is one that just 1:46:10.320 --> 1:46:12.519 relishes meat Ball. I want to throw this to the 1:46:12.760 --> 1:46:16.240 to Kevin and the boys, like live golf could not 1:46:16.320 --> 1:46:17.440 have been more disastrous. 1:46:17.479 --> 1:46:18.320 Why are you gonna do that? 1:46:19.160 --> 1:46:23.920 Sergio trying to get their books and the impressionable young 1:46:24.040 --> 1:46:24.760 boys over there. 1:46:25.439 --> 1:46:32.320 They at the boys as they are trying. I saw that. 1:46:32.479 --> 1:46:36.320 I saw the email lunch with Hiri. 1:46:41.960 --> 1:46:44.400 I'd stay close to close to an. I'll give it 1:46:44.439 --> 1:46:47.400 a d because of Tyroll because it's her. I think 1:46:47.479 --> 1:46:52.240 John Ram and Bryson was super embarrassing, but Sergio got 1:46:52.280 --> 1:46:55.559 the headline on the PR front and not great Sergio. 1:46:55.960 --> 1:46:58.400 I mean Sergio is who he thought he was. I've 1:46:58.400 --> 1:46:59.040 written about this. 1:46:59.080 --> 1:47:02.439 For my I think you're the one person who's really 1:47:02.520 --> 1:47:04.200 always been like a bad guy. 1:47:06.280 --> 1:47:09.879 Yeah, if you were an asshole, ay, and an asshole 1:47:09.920 --> 1:47:12.559 at twenty five and cover your kid like in your 1:47:12.920 --> 1:47:14.799 soole at thirty five and you're. 1:47:14.720 --> 1:47:17.839 Stealing, he's still doing it. It's like, oh, Sergio's matured. 1:47:18.040 --> 1:47:20.639 I read that story when I was like ten years ago. 1:47:20.720 --> 1:47:22.840 I got spitting in the cup, like. 1:47:23.160 --> 1:47:24.360 He's still an asshole. 1:47:24.439 --> 1:47:25.120 He's a bad guy. 1:47:25.720 --> 1:47:27.880 I'm sorry, and he hasn't done anything since he won. 1:47:27.960 --> 1:47:30.519 Am I yelling too much? Sorry? Okay, it's just okay. 1:47:30.960 --> 1:47:33.240 This is Sergio is always a button that you can 1:47:33.280 --> 1:47:34.040 always just It was. 1:47:34.040 --> 1:47:36.200 The least surprising media. 1:47:36.320 --> 1:47:39.120 Media got some grief this old bad question, Scotty, But 1:47:39.200 --> 1:47:41.120 the media was kind of riding Sergio pretty good. We're 1:47:41.120 --> 1:47:42.439 trying to get some answers out of him, and he 1:47:42.600 --> 1:47:44.559 was the press there. No, he snapped at him, of course, 1:47:44.600 --> 1:47:46.800 but I was impressed, like you and Murray bomb Hart 1:47:46.880 --> 1:47:49.000 kept going out him, you know, like what was the 1:47:49.080 --> 1:47:51.639 conduct for like well, I'm not gonna answer next question, 1:47:52.080 --> 1:47:53.680 you know. And what did what what what did young 1:47:53.760 --> 1:47:54.800 say to you? I'm not going to tell you. 1:47:54.840 --> 1:47:56.960 He took a chunk out of the tea box and 1:47:57.120 --> 1:47:59.679 smashed his driver on a cooler, you know. And dug 1:47:59.760 --> 1:48:03.240 Fort had the report that jeff Yange, the new chairman competition, 1:48:03.360 --> 1:48:05.479 been in first year on the job, just throwing in 1:48:05.560 --> 1:48:08.240 the deep end getting some surgery. O reps went out 1:48:08.320 --> 1:48:10.599 to the fourth t it said, gave him a code 1:48:10.640 --> 1:48:13.640 of conduct warning. Ferguson the Great Ap reported at it 1:48:14.240 --> 1:48:16.800 also hearing this new conduct policy is being used for 1:48:16.880 --> 1:48:19.240 the first time this year for at least two majors. 1:48:20.120 --> 1:48:23.639 Second violation shoe shots. Third is DQ combined. 1:48:24.320 --> 1:48:26.160 We want it should be like points on your license. 1:48:26.200 --> 1:48:28.000 You keep them kind of like that, and then if 1:48:28.040 --> 1:48:29.639 you get another like if next year he gets another 1:48:29.680 --> 1:48:31.880 conduct viation, it's a stroke. One more of that, it's 1:48:31.880 --> 1:48:32.240 a DQ. 1:48:32.400 --> 1:48:35.040 It's like Draymond Green with the technical over the first 1:48:35.080 --> 1:48:38.320 of the year and then the crew and the NBA 1:48:38.479 --> 1:48:41.000 hands lebron in title. Who do we want? All right? 1:48:41.720 --> 1:48:44.200 Who do we want to name this after? Because I 1:48:44.680 --> 1:48:50.160 I came on No, no, because after if if two majors. Uh, 1:48:50.439 --> 1:48:53.920 you know, after incidents at two majors last year. This 1:48:54.200 --> 1:48:57.600 is the Windom Clark rule. Yeah, this is this is 1:48:57.920 --> 1:48:59.759 the Windom Clark rule period. 1:49:00.360 --> 1:49:02.839 Can I tell you something that made me just giggle 1:49:03.479 --> 1:49:06.160 while I was sitting by myself early in the morning, please, 1:49:06.560 --> 1:49:11.639 So Sergio breaks his driver and and then like I'm watching, 1:49:12.320 --> 1:49:15.439 I'm just sitting by nine Green, just enjoying the morning 1:49:15.680 --> 1:49:19.000 watching players play through. You know, start with Kittie Kat there, 1:49:19.439 --> 1:49:23.280 next next group up. I'm like, the scoreboard turns and 1:49:23.360 --> 1:49:26.320 it's Sergio and Rom and there's one ball like twenty 1:49:26.360 --> 1:49:29.439 five yards behind it. And I'm like, oh, it's Sergio 1:49:29.560 --> 1:49:33.120 and it's still on the downslope. So I proms down 1:49:33.200 --> 1:49:36.360 in the flat and Sergio's on the downslope because he 1:49:36.439 --> 1:49:38.840 had to hit three wood. He hit an awesome shot, 1:49:39.200 --> 1:49:41.280 but I just was like chuckling to myself. I'm like, 1:49:41.360 --> 1:49:43.360 oh my god, he just made this whole so much 1:49:43.439 --> 1:49:46.800 harder because on the second hole of the of the 1:49:47.000 --> 1:49:49.519 fourth round, when he's completely out of the mix, he 1:49:49.640 --> 1:49:50.360 decided to play. 1:49:50.960 --> 1:49:53.280 Of course, he had had an enormous asshole answer about 1:49:53.280 --> 1:49:55.120 that too. They were like, well, how hard was it too? 1:49:55.160 --> 1:49:57.400 When you didn't have driver. It's easy because there's no 1:49:57.479 --> 1:50:00.639 decision with every old next. 1:50:00.560 --> 1:50:05.320 Question, that's great, I mean, what why just breaking your 1:50:05.400 --> 1:50:10.439 driver when in like an inconsequential in the tournament at 1:50:10.479 --> 1:50:13.760 this point with what it was forty five years old. 1:50:13.920 --> 1:50:14.479 I love John. 1:50:14.560 --> 1:50:18.360 I love for John's like, whoa, yeah, look Rom. 1:50:18.280 --> 1:50:21.080 Saying he'll now prepare differently, but won't say what. He's like, 1:50:21.200 --> 1:50:23.479 I'm going to start doing this differently, like the Greens 1:50:23.520 --> 1:50:25.840 are this firm. I'm going to start doing this differently, like. 1:50:26.000 --> 1:50:27.320 Do you think this firm? 1:50:27.400 --> 1:50:29.120 But yeah, he said, you don't see what this firm? 1:50:29.160 --> 1:50:31.880 I need to prepare differently. Yeah, it's purple. 1:50:32.160 --> 1:50:35.120 I need to prepare John Rom has to prepared. That's 1:50:35.160 --> 1:50:36.880 what he said. This is a live? 1:50:37.080 --> 1:50:38.840 Is this like many people right into this is like 1:50:38.880 --> 1:50:41.120 all the live schedules a joke. It doesn't prepare you 1:50:41.200 --> 1:50:43.520 for the majors. I don't think that's what he meant necessarily. 1:50:43.680 --> 1:50:46.479 So, yeah, Rory didn't exactly you know he praised on 1:50:46.520 --> 1:50:47.640 the PGA Tour lead up. 1:50:47.760 --> 1:50:50.680 Oh totally not like this isn't a pure live. I 1:50:50.880 --> 1:50:54.800 didn't read it that way quite frankly. Also, why didn't he. 1:50:54.800 --> 1:50:57.960 Tell us what you know. I mean, I think I 1:50:58.080 --> 1:50:58.679 know what he meant. 1:50:58.760 --> 1:51:01.680 He could just pull the rory and play, you know, 1:51:02.040 --> 1:51:04.760 just show up, just kind of be here all the time. 1:51:05.160 --> 1:51:09.000 It worked. I can't wait for next year. Let's go 1:51:09.240 --> 1:51:16.920 into the next year. Max Grazerman qualifies, you know, miraculous 1:51:17.080 --> 1:51:19.320 run and he decides he wants to do the Rory 1:51:19.479 --> 1:51:24.360 prep and he spends three weeks and two days in that. 1:51:24.560 --> 1:51:26.880 They tap him on the shoulder. Do you when do 1:51:26.960 --> 1:51:27.479 you leave it? 1:51:28.520 --> 1:51:31.519 He's probably busy agitating for Crypto to be paid out 1:51:31.600 --> 1:51:32.240 from the purse. 1:51:33.320 --> 1:51:34.760 I heard a good story of this week. I think 1:51:34.800 --> 1:51:38.000 they just send you a bill. It's just like, hey, hey, 1:51:38.120 --> 1:51:40.160 we think you maybe need to stay at the quality 1:51:40.280 --> 1:51:42.360 end up the road. We're gonna send you a bill 1:51:42.400 --> 1:51:44.080 for the first two weeks. And it's like two hundred 1:51:44.120 --> 1:51:44.799 thousand dollars. 1:51:45.560 --> 1:51:46.800 What other notes do you guys have? 1:51:47.880 --> 1:51:49.400 Joseph Well on the lif stuff. 1:51:49.439 --> 1:51:52.839 The only time Phil Ncholson missed this year's event whatever's 1:51:52.880 --> 1:51:55.320 going on? And the only time he made any headlines 1:51:55.439 --> 1:51:58.400 was having a crazy take about thirteen and fifteen, like. 1:51:58.560 --> 1:52:00.320 Just unseerious all out. 1:52:00.320 --> 1:52:01.479 What's his take? What was his take? 1:52:01.600 --> 1:52:03.559 She basically said that length is not always better. Now 1:52:03.640 --> 1:52:04.280 there aren't. 1:52:04.040 --> 1:52:07.080 Eagles lengthening the holes, right, yes, now there. 1:52:06.960 --> 1:52:09.320 Aren't eagles anymore. On thirteen and fifteen, which I think 1:52:09.320 --> 1:52:12.360 you guys covered yesterday, But I mean thirteen and fifteen 1:52:12.400 --> 1:52:14.400 were probably the two highlights of the tournament this year. 1:52:14.600 --> 1:52:18.360 Yeah oh yeah, not easy birdies at all, mostly a 1:52:18.439 --> 1:52:19.719 lot of five go ahead. 1:52:20.360 --> 1:52:22.839 I just I had this note just for my standing 1:52:22.920 --> 1:52:26.839 at the At the first t Cameron comes comes across 1:52:27.320 --> 1:52:30.200 and takes his hat off, shakes all the markers and 1:52:30.280 --> 1:52:35.040 the announcer's hands, and Rory just blow by, all all business, 1:52:35.200 --> 1:52:38.840 didn't even flinch at anybody.

Okay, and he turns 1:53:08.000 --> 1:53:10.479 and he faces us, and you know you expect a 1:53:10.520 --> 1:53:14.360 certain verbiage and it says Relax, it's just a red 1:53:14.520 --> 1:53:16.920 hat on the front.

It's envelope. 1:54:37.920 --> 1:54:41.720 And Cam hadn't put his peg. It was interesting. It 1:54:41.800 --> 1:54:44.480 was like a moving not moving, but it was powerful. 1:54:44.600 --> 1:54:46.720 Like I was like, I could be there late two 1:54:46.720 --> 1:54:47.320 o'clock tea. 1:54:47.600 --> 1:54:49.000 Can I ask a serious question? 1:54:49.400 --> 1:54:49.480 Uh? 1:54:50.240 --> 1:54:50.480 JT? 1:54:52.040 --> 1:54:54.600 Yeah exactly. I don't know if you. 1:54:54.640 --> 1:54:57.800 Had to bet on JT or Jordan Spieth winning another 1:54:57.920 --> 1:54:59.840 master's who would you bet on another Master? 1:55:00.240 --> 1:55:06.840 Yeah, winnings, Justin Thomas, Jordan, I know who you're got one. 1:55:09.280 --> 1:55:12.400 Justin Thomas has never showed any ability to compete her, 1:55:12.480 --> 1:55:12.920 but he's. 1:55:12.760 --> 1:55:14.560 Shown a pulse in the last eighteen months. 1:55:15.400 --> 1:55:17.600 Good, it's really good. It's run on the corner. 1:55:17.680 --> 1:55:19.840 Who's contended in more majors in the last five years 1:55:19.920 --> 1:55:22.680 to speak? Or JT? I think it's speak five years. 1:55:22.880 --> 1:55:24.560 I don't I don't think I care what it. 1:55:24.520 --> 1:55:25.520 Feels like a conversation. 1:55:26.000 --> 1:55:29.960 Thomas has been one pretending at Harvard Town next year 1:55:30.080 --> 1:55:31.680 either serious d L. 1:55:31.760 --> 1:55:35.800 Three those two memorial for j T and Speed. 1:55:36.160 --> 1:55:38.480 We're going to get some big signature boys next week. 1:55:38.560 --> 1:55:41.480 I feel I would say I'll take JT's future. 1:55:43.160 --> 1:55:45.959 Earn a spot at the heritage or was it sponsor? 1:55:46.880 --> 1:55:49.560 I believe it was on his own merit actually finished. 1:55:49.560 --> 1:55:51.040 But you know who did get a sponsor exemption? 1:55:51.680 --> 1:55:56.160 Tony, He's on the full circuit. Look at this, that 1:55:56.280 --> 1:55:59.800 might be our time to sign off anything else? What else, Kevin? 1:55:59.800 --> 1:56:00.880 Any other big picture thought? 1:56:00.960 --> 1:56:02.680 Oh, I was gonna say, I was gonna say, I 1:56:02.720 --> 1:56:05.560 think Jordan Speed. I think if I had to better 1:56:05.640 --> 1:56:06.880 up one, if I had to pick the two, I 1:56:06.920 --> 1:56:07.640 would take Speed. 1:56:07.800 --> 1:56:09.880 I think Jordan's Speed and Johnson. 1:56:10.280 --> 1:56:13.360 Mister mister Potts was still on around. Mister pott gears 1:56:13.440 --> 1:56:15.680 just the old man. A lot of a music. 1:56:15.960 --> 1:56:16.360 It's a lot. 1:56:16.400 --> 1:56:17.800 A couple of times I just chuckle. 1:56:18.520 --> 1:56:24.680 I saw mckibbon was in full thirteen he presumably his scripting. 1:56:25.000 --> 1:56:28.160 Yeah, yeah, this is a good question from that crowd. 1:56:29.040 --> 1:56:34.560 Rory Rory a double Grand Slam or or Speith. Was 1:56:34.640 --> 1:56:38.520 it more likely Rory double Grand Slam or Speed Grand Slam? 1:56:38.720 --> 1:56:41.880 So he needs another US Open and another Don't Open. 1:56:42.040 --> 1:56:44.240 I'll tell Justsep Bonner. I don't think sweet can win 1:56:44.280 --> 1:56:46.080 a PG. I don't think. 1:56:46.400 --> 1:56:47.320 I don't think anybody. 1:56:47.720 --> 1:56:47.760 No. 1:56:47.840 --> 1:56:49.160 I think he chance. 1:56:49.280 --> 1:56:52.240 I think I actually think if you were going to 1:56:52.320 --> 1:56:55.360 pick a course that he could win at, I think 1:56:55.400 --> 1:56:56.360 he could win a run. 1:56:56.880 --> 1:56:59.320 Hey, I think he went at Frisco at first. 1:56:59.720 --> 1:57:01.440 What there's too much trouble at first? 1:57:01.760 --> 1:57:02.160 A home game? 1:57:02.400 --> 1:57:04.960 Would it count at Frisco? But that actually count? 1:57:05.000 --> 1:57:06.520 Would you just give it a half? I think there's 1:57:06.840 --> 1:57:09.240 a real chance that Rory Boycott's Frisco. 1:57:10.120 --> 1:57:10.800 That would be sick. 1:57:10.960 --> 1:57:13.760 I bet no. Conversely, he wins it and then he 1:57:13.880 --> 1:57:17.640 has to like acknowledge that you know it's Frisco. 1:57:18.640 --> 1:57:21.520 All right? Go ahead? Picture thought, please, that's why you're here. 1:57:21.640 --> 1:57:22.040 We love you. 1:57:22.800 --> 1:57:26.120 I think the Masters has I wouldn't get this right. 1:57:26.640 --> 1:57:29.560 There's a little bit more and more creep every year 1:57:29.760 --> 1:57:33.160 of the kind of corporate standing of its edges, and 1:57:33.280 --> 1:57:35.360 I just I really felt that this year for the 1:57:35.400 --> 1:57:36.000 first time. 1:57:36.120 --> 1:57:38.320 Oh you want to do that let's do it. It's 1:57:38.400 --> 1:57:40.000 just open enough of canon. 1:57:40.280 --> 1:57:42.160 I had a two hour I was like, are we 1:57:42.240 --> 1:57:43.880 going the Wednesday? I was looking at this, is this 1:57:44.000 --> 1:57:45.240 the Wednesday episode? Please? 1:57:45.400 --> 1:57:46.560 I think it might be the boys. 1:57:47.960 --> 1:57:50.480 We also have like a big way this week is 1:57:50.640 --> 1:57:54.200 PGA Tour versus But the end of these that are 1:57:54.240 --> 1:57:55.960 not the PGA Tour, We'll talk about that another time, 1:57:56.000 --> 1:57:57.120 but please Kevin go ahead. 1:57:57.720 --> 1:58:00.920 You know, obviously some of the Part three stuff became 1:58:01.080 --> 1:58:03.440 a big part of that conversation or this week, and 1:58:03.600 --> 1:58:06.280 like the clown show that has kind of lost contain 1:58:06.360 --> 1:58:08.760 a little bit. And I was trying to trace back 1:58:08.840 --> 1:58:12.280 when this Part three, in my mind became like a 1:58:12.360 --> 1:58:15.160 celebrity event, and my old employer ESPN is certainly part 1:58:15.160 --> 1:58:16.000 of the participation in. 1:58:16.000 --> 1:58:17.160 That touting the ratings. 1:58:17.400 --> 1:58:20.040 I think it's when Tiger brought brought Lindsay Vaughn to 1:58:20.160 --> 1:58:23.600 be his caddy, kind of soft launch their relationship at 1:58:23.680 --> 1:58:25.680 the Part three and it became like a TV event. 1:58:26.080 --> 1:58:28.040 Oh my gosh, like Tiger and Lindsay are dating. This 1:58:28.240 --> 1:58:30.640 is like everyone wants to tune in. Because for years 1:58:31.040 --> 1:58:33.840 he had rejected the SI the silliness of the Part three. 1:58:33.880 --> 1:58:35.480 He did He's like, this is dumb. If I'm like 1:58:35.560 --> 1:58:37.320 competing with the tournament, I'm not going to play in 1:58:37.360 --> 1:58:39.320 this hit and giggle where people bring their families around. 1:58:39.560 --> 1:58:42.840 But he kind of like legitimized what we see today, 1:58:42.960 --> 1:58:45.960 which is that it's just basically like a family circus, 1:58:46.040 --> 1:58:49.040 which is fine, but it also, I don't know, it's 1:58:49.120 --> 1:58:51.760 like it's we're losing a little bit of what the 1:58:51.840 --> 1:58:53.920 tournament used to be. And this is like truly the 1:58:54.040 --> 1:58:57.120 dumbest probably analogy that could come up with to sort 1:58:57.120 --> 1:58:59.800 of illustrate this. But the I feel a little bit 1:58:59.800 --> 1:59:02.240 bad because I was recommending like the peach ice cream 1:59:02.280 --> 1:59:05.320 sandwiches and our guide this year, like oh, they're so great, 1:59:05.640 --> 1:59:07.640 and they were so mediocre, and I was like, you 1:59:07.680 --> 1:59:11.360 know what, this strikes me as like some like hedge 1:59:11.400 --> 1:59:13.040 fund person was like, you know, we could make these 1:59:13.080 --> 1:59:16.080 peach ice cream sandwiches way more efficient and for way 1:59:16.160 --> 1:59:18.800 cheaper if we just like commoditized them. 1:59:19.240 --> 1:59:20.960 There might be an ice cream shortage. 1:59:21.920 --> 1:59:23.720 They're just not as good as they once. 1:59:23.600 --> 1:59:27.360 Were, and ice cream the ice cream. There's not as 1:59:27.440 --> 1:59:28.000 much ice. 1:59:27.880 --> 1:59:29.800 Cream in it, sure, And I'm sure people be like, oh, 1:59:29.800 --> 1:59:31.400 the fact I didn't go to the ice cream. 1:59:31.800 --> 1:59:32.840 But like it just. 1:59:34.320 --> 1:59:36.400 It's to me, it's like it's like a larger thing 1:59:36.520 --> 1:59:38.880 about Like, Okay, these used to be this original, cool 1:59:38.960 --> 1:59:40.800 thing and now they're just like a thing that you 1:59:40.840 --> 1:59:43.480 could get at the grocery store. They just taste that way, 1:59:43.840 --> 1:59:45.120 and it feels to me like a little bit of 1:59:45.160 --> 1:59:46.440 the charm was lost in that. 1:59:47.160 --> 1:59:52.040 Well, we haven't even merch is a huge expat stupid. 1:59:52.200 --> 1:59:54.480 That's where it's. It's kind of who wants a doggy 1:59:54.560 --> 1:59:57.360 bowl with Masters things on it? Who wants a you know, 1:59:57.600 --> 2:00:00.960 like literally anything. The salt shakers, Thechristmas tree ornaments, the 2:00:01.040 --> 2:00:04.879 football's of baseball, Like there's nothing that you can't imagine 2:00:04.920 --> 2:00:05.320 that they don't. 2:00:05.680 --> 2:00:07.960 And I almost grabbed the football because. 2:00:09.400 --> 2:00:13.040 I was joking about out baseball outside and we got jealous. 2:00:13.840 --> 2:00:16.320 I think, you know who's the other one besides the 2:00:16.840 --> 2:00:19.560 all right, all right, it's our gambling are gambling? 2:00:19.880 --> 2:00:20.240 Okay? 2:00:21.200 --> 2:00:24.480 I look this seemed to be a big narrative debate 2:00:24.600 --> 2:00:25.960 early in the week. Uh. 2:00:27.360 --> 2:00:30.880 I think like we're in an era of incredible Masters tournaments, Like, 2:00:31.120 --> 2:00:35.520 let's be real here, Rom Scottie Rory twice Tiger twenty 2:00:35.640 --> 2:00:40.520 nineteen Scotty twice. Yeah, like it's an incredible run of 2:00:40.680 --> 2:00:41.640 Masters tournaments. 2:00:41.800 --> 2:00:42.400 I uh. 2:00:44.120 --> 2:00:47.760 I thought, like whatever, the celebrity stuff and the goofiness 2:00:47.840 --> 2:00:49.800 and the miz and Kevin Hart and all that, Like 2:00:49.920 --> 2:00:51.640 I can just it's not for me. I don't really 2:00:51.720 --> 2:00:54.080 watch the part three anyways, Like like I get people 2:00:54.160 --> 2:00:58.000 defenders being offended by that, but whatever, I think where 2:00:58.080 --> 2:00:59.760 like the stuff was really out of balances, like the 2:01:00.280 --> 2:01:03.920 Hall becoming an identity of the tournament that said, like 2:01:04.040 --> 2:01:06.320 I had, I think it's growing it in a way 2:01:06.440 --> 2:01:09.480 that maybe is probably not appealing to others. I had 2:01:09.520 --> 2:01:12.640 a woman like a good friend of ours, my wife's 2:01:12.680 --> 2:01:17.000 good friend, like very dignified, reserved person, not a merch hall, 2:01:17.160 --> 2:01:19.400 not like text me this morning, like I saw this 2:01:19.520 --> 2:01:21.520 hat and I love it, and like never asked me, 2:01:21.920 --> 2:01:23.960 could you get this for me. It's grow it's going 2:01:24.000 --> 2:01:30.160 into these different tentacles. But like the notion I tried, 2:01:30.200 --> 2:01:32.240 it was sold out. I did try because this person 2:01:32.560 --> 2:01:34.960 is like a normal good person that asked me for it. 2:01:35.520 --> 2:01:37.600 It's like, holy crap, she wants a hat Like then 2:01:37.760 --> 2:01:40.560 like this must be going into different bloodstreams and that's 2:01:40.600 --> 2:01:44.320 not a bad thing. But the merch stuff just for 2:01:44.520 --> 2:01:46.680 me is where it all seems out of balance. And 2:01:46.760 --> 2:01:50.320 the celebrity pictures on site and the and the posting 2:01:50.480 --> 2:01:52.080 where like, I don't know if you should bring your 2:01:52.120 --> 2:01:54.040 cameras the first three days because now it feels like 2:01:54.080 --> 2:01:57.040 people are bringing their cameras to take pictures of themselves 2:01:57.600 --> 2:02:00.600 in this arene not to take pictures of the competition. 2:02:00.720 --> 2:02:03.920 Social team is told to follow the celebrity a bunch 2:02:03.960 --> 2:02:06.240 of stuff. Yeah, and like that would never have been 2:02:06.280 --> 2:02:08.760 the case, like ten years ago. The Masters has never 2:02:08.840 --> 2:02:11.680 felt cheap to me, and for the first time there's 2:02:11.760 --> 2:02:14.280 like a couple elements upon the edges that are starting 2:02:14.320 --> 2:02:15.160 to feel kind of cheap. 2:02:15.480 --> 2:02:16.320 This does not matter. 2:02:16.440 --> 2:02:20.120 But in the restaurant, in the dining in the media 2:02:20.200 --> 2:02:22.720 dining area, they have like the clocks around the world. Yeah, 2:02:22.720 --> 2:02:24.760 I did notice the hands were not fully lined up. 2:02:26.000 --> 2:02:30.000 That does not matter, But I don't know attention to detail. 2:02:30.360 --> 2:02:33.760 It's like, look, it's a fine line if they want 2:02:33.800 --> 2:02:36.480 to grow with women and they want to grow with kids, 2:02:36.640 --> 2:02:39.440 and like, I don't like blame them for that. The 2:02:39.520 --> 2:02:41.839 one thing I'll say about all the hooting and hollering 2:02:41.880 --> 2:02:45.400 and the carpeting, like to lean back on the speed line. 2:02:46.120 --> 2:02:49.360 I would think, like, nobody is thinking about this more 2:02:50.000 --> 2:02:54.120 than the Master, trust me, burner Twitter account, trust me 2:02:54.520 --> 2:02:58.720 like frustrated whatever, seventy five year old dude. Like I 2:02:59.000 --> 2:03:04.680 would think the Masters is thinking, like considering these outcomes, 2:03:04.840 --> 2:03:07.920 where are we going over the line, and like following 2:03:08.000 --> 2:03:10.640 the discourse about it, Like I do feel like they 2:03:10.680 --> 2:03:13.400 are not going to thirstily go after every inch and 2:03:13.560 --> 2:03:15.560 maybe there's some sort of recorrection after. 2:03:15.960 --> 2:03:17.560 I don't know. I don't know if we should have 2:03:17.600 --> 2:03:20.200 cameras the first three days after just what I see 2:03:20.280 --> 2:03:22.680 is people lining up to take pictures like of themselves, 2:03:22.800 --> 2:03:25.240 like flying the merch hall thing. The merch was just 2:03:25.320 --> 2:03:27.200 the one thing that I felt like got really out 2:03:27.200 --> 2:03:31.360 of balance, the celebrity stuff whatever. Anyways, that's it. That 2:03:31.520 --> 2:03:33.040 was a big observation, a big picture. 2:03:33.240 --> 2:03:35.720 Yeah, just I mean, I just think it's it's a 2:03:36.000 --> 2:03:39.200 delicate thing to play with, right. Yeah, we probably go 2:03:39.320 --> 2:03:41.960 to overboard sometimes being like, oh, it's a sacred place, 2:03:42.040 --> 2:03:44.360 like it is a golf tournament, but there is something 2:03:44.560 --> 2:03:47.440 that sort of makes it unique within the world of golf, 2:03:47.480 --> 2:03:49.320 and it would be a real shame to lose that. 2:03:49.360 --> 2:03:52.720 I mean, you wrote a great thing about the sort 2:03:52.760 --> 2:03:54.360 of atmosphere of the first tea. And it's like one 2:03:54.360 --> 2:03:56.800 of the things that I love about the Masters, right 2:03:56.880 --> 2:03:59.720 is there is no corporate sort of you know set 2:03:59.800 --> 2:04:03.040 up there. Like these players are playing for history and 2:04:03.080 --> 2:04:05.480 they have to weave their way through this collection of 2:04:06.320 --> 2:04:09.480 you know, rumbled sports writers and women in sun dresses 2:04:09.600 --> 2:04:13.320 and billionaires in their green jackets and agents sort of 2:04:13.400 --> 2:04:16.520 hustling to you know, hear the gossip and the scuttle butt, 2:04:16.600 --> 2:04:19.720 and it's like this great kind of organic thingy. They 2:04:20.040 --> 2:04:21.920 just form a human tunnel. They don't even have ropes 2:04:22.000 --> 2:04:24.400 between you and the players. And we were standing there 2:04:24.680 --> 2:04:27.480 on Saturday, just kind of standing there, and Rory came 2:04:27.520 --> 2:04:29.200 by and he saw us and he was kind of 2:04:29.280 --> 2:04:30.960 like the look on his face is like, what are 2:04:31.000 --> 2:04:32.920 you guys doing here? Like he was sort of funny, 2:04:34.320 --> 2:04:37.040 you know, I know, I know these guys, and you know, 2:04:37.160 --> 2:04:38.840 I just think that's kind of part of what makes 2:04:38.880 --> 2:04:41.480 it special. And if any of that goes away, I 2:04:41.640 --> 2:04:44.000 just feel like something's lost that you can't really get back. 2:04:45.360 --> 2:04:48.440 Yeah, it's it's that's still there. It's still there, And 2:04:48.480 --> 2:04:50.280 all of a sudden you're next to Rafa or whoever, 2:04:50.440 --> 2:04:52.000 and they're just meandering with the people. 2:04:52.280 --> 2:04:54.640 Most of you have the same like rights as like 2:04:54.800 --> 2:04:56.960 Travis Kelce, which is kind of amazing. 2:04:56.720 --> 2:04:59.120 Like yeah, he was out there Saturday. 2:04:59.360 --> 2:04:59.560 Yeah. 2:04:59.800 --> 2:05:01.560 I for me, it's just the merch thing. 2:05:01.600 --> 2:05:04.720 I don't know, canceled merch just empty just I don't know. 2:05:04.800 --> 2:05:05.400 I don't know what you do. 2:05:05.680 --> 2:05:07.880 But it's fine. I think I think, I don't know. 2:05:08.120 --> 2:05:10.120 I think they could fix the merch thing by just 2:05:10.280 --> 2:05:13.600 having an online store where everybody buys it. Yeah, And 2:05:13.760 --> 2:05:16.560 it's like the thing that's crazy to me about the 2:05:16.640 --> 2:05:20.560 merch is like these people, it's like you're going to 2:05:20.640 --> 2:05:22.800 the Masters for the one time in your life, and 2:05:22.880 --> 2:05:25.760 I get you want to get a keepsake. I understand that. 2:05:26.000 --> 2:05:28.760 I get you want to get keepsakes, but it's like 2:05:28.880 --> 2:05:31.760 they wait in line for two hours, they shop for 2:05:31.840 --> 2:05:34.120 an hour, then they got to run the bags back 2:05:34.200 --> 2:05:37.680 to their car, and it's like half your day's gone. 2:05:37.920 --> 2:05:38.120 Yeah. 2:05:38.400 --> 2:05:40.640 Well, someone noted I think it was from Bunker that 2:05:40.840 --> 2:05:45.040 like the crowd around the honorary starters was sparse, sparser 2:05:45.120 --> 2:05:48.080 than normal, but yet the merch line was over an 2:05:48.120 --> 2:05:50.400 hour wait and it's like that's where I think you're 2:05:50.480 --> 2:05:52.960 getting a little out about, like you are coming to 2:05:53.120 --> 2:05:55.600 a shopping event with a little bit of golf. 2:05:55.920 --> 2:05:57.240 I don't know, I just think that's. 2:05:57.080 --> 2:05:59.960 I mean, Jack Nicholas. Maybe there's some Jack and Gary fatigue. Yeah, 2:06:00.120 --> 2:06:02.760 but like Jack's probably not going to hit the ceremonial 2:06:02.760 --> 2:06:05.840 t shot for more than many more years. Like even 2:06:05.920 --> 2:06:07.480 he kind of was like, well, you know, I'm getting 2:06:07.520 --> 2:06:08.760 kind of old. I don't know how many more years 2:06:08.760 --> 2:06:10.960 I'm going to do this. Yeah, he hit this low hook. 2:06:11.040 --> 2:06:13.400 You know, he said, I don't play golf more than 2:06:13.480 --> 2:06:15.360 once a year. And even then, I, you know, I'm 2:06:15.400 --> 2:06:17.760 in a cart. So it's like he doesn't, you know, 2:06:17.840 --> 2:06:20.320 he's not a golfer anymore, but this one ritual gets 2:06:20.360 --> 2:06:23.600 him up going for it. And there's this person who 2:06:23.760 --> 2:06:25.960 kind of helped make the Masters what it is, and 2:06:26.040 --> 2:06:28.080 it's kind of like people can't be bothered by it. 2:06:28.400 --> 2:06:30.800 And I think, man, when the first year I went 2:06:30.800 --> 2:06:34.040 to the Masters, Arnold Palmer was there and he came 2:06:34.080 --> 2:06:35.720 out for the ceremonal ty shot. He was really ill. 2:06:35.840 --> 2:06:39.160 He died, you know, probably four months later, and they 2:06:39.200 --> 2:06:41.160 were really trying to encourage him to hit it one 2:06:41.240 --> 2:06:43.360 more shot. Jack was like just take a potter and 2:06:43.480 --> 2:06:45.600 there was like tears in his eyes. He and Gary 2:06:45.640 --> 2:06:47.600 were both like crying because they knew it was the 2:06:47.680 --> 2:06:49.760 last time that Arnie was going to be it and 2:06:49.760 --> 2:06:52.400 it was such a kind of special thing and everybody 2:06:52.440 --> 2:06:54.440 around could sort of feel that, and you know, maybe 2:06:54.480 --> 2:06:56.960 that's a testament to Arnie, but like that is kind 2:06:57.000 --> 2:06:58.480 of gone. Yeah, I don't know. 2:06:58.880 --> 2:07:00.720 There's a lot of reels that that's what Joe MC. 2:07:00.880 --> 2:07:02.160 I know it fed into it. Like every time I 2:07:02.240 --> 2:07:04.640 opened my Instagram is like more reels of people showing 2:07:04.680 --> 2:07:06.240 the eight hundred things they bought IM. 2:07:06.240 --> 2:07:09.320 Just like is that why we the more? What's being 2:07:09.400 --> 2:07:10.920 celebrated about this tournament? Now? 2:07:11.320 --> 2:07:14.240 I don't know anyways that got out of balance anything else. 2:07:14.400 --> 2:07:16.840 I think like, honestly, this is for the end of 2:07:16.840 --> 2:07:19.160 the show. We didn't talk about fred Ridley's Wednesday thing much. 2:07:19.240 --> 2:07:22.120 We will talk about that at another time. There's I 2:07:22.160 --> 2:07:24.560 think there's a tension that's probably gonna that that seems 2:07:24.600 --> 2:07:27.960 to be very quite clear between the majors, certainly Gusta 2:07:28.080 --> 2:07:33.320 National Brian Rolapp's new era of leadership at the PGA 2:07:33.440 --> 2:07:37.400 Tour that that will probably discuss in detail.
