1 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 1: Walking up the third t I didn't think Scotty could 2 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: win the Masters. It just didn't feel like that. It 3 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,400 Speaker 1: just like felt like Cam was on it and I've 4 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,399 Speaker 1: never seen anyone down there on the third and then 5 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:16,799 Speaker 1: Um makes it chips and he flubs it really and 6 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,119 Speaker 1: then makes an unbelievable shot. It's a really brave shot 7 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,279 Speaker 1: that bumping it up that stope. It's really steep turn 8 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:23,079 Speaker 1: to make that, and walking off the third groin, it 9 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:24,920 Speaker 1: didn't feel like he could lose it, you know, like, 10 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 1: in about a two minute stretch, it went from like 11 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: this is really sad for Scotty to like, wow, he's 12 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: just gonna it. Just felt the energy and the whole 13 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: thing to me changed completely. Another log on the fire, 14 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: Nobody here is give the time. All right, Here we 15 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: are the final fire drill of the Masters, and what 16 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: a week it has been. Obviously, Alan, you wrote yesterday 17 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: that if Scotty Cheffer went out and shot seventy two 18 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: and one, a star would be born. You shoot seventy one, 19 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: even with a four point on eighteen, and thus you know, 20 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 1: wins the Masters, his fourth fourth win in six starts. Truly, 21 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: it seems to be obvious that a star is born. Yeah, 22 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: what an incredible performance. You know, all week long kind 23 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: of followed the speed Temple of two thousand fifteen. I mean, 24 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: just played it lights out for thirty six holes, built 25 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: a big lead, fought like hell on Saturday was really 26 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,040 Speaker 1: tough day, and then just you know, met the moment 27 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: on Sunday. I mean, so many incredible up and downs. 28 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: Obviously the one on three will will join the the 29 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: pantheon of Master's highlights forever. But I mean he was 30 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: incredible with his wedge. I actually called Ben Crenshaw in 31 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: the middle of the round and he was just raving 32 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 1: about do you see all these shots? He's hitting high ones, 33 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: low one, spinning ones. You know, he was. He was 34 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: really into it, and but of course you knew he 35 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: also he drove it really well when he had to, 36 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: and I got a little tense there. You when Rory 37 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: hold out on eighteen, there was just a sense like, 38 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: oh boy, let's let's see how how Scott. You know, 39 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: he'd already slayed camp Smith, and then it's like, how 40 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,839 Speaker 1: is he going to react to this one? And then 41 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: you know, I almost knocked the Flaxi down fourteen and 42 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: really bold second shot on the fifteen, and those birdies 43 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: just kind of iced it. So you know, he's a 44 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: player with no weaknesses, like that's what makes him so dangerous. 45 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: And that was really on display of just a great 46 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: all around performance and you know it pretty I don't 47 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 1: know if you guys watched the press conference, he killed 48 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: in there. He's just such a likable, humble, kind of 49 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 1: sweet kids so I think, Yeah, I think the golfing 50 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: public is cana fall in love with him. Jeff, what 51 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: are your what are your thoughts on what you saw 52 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: this week? Yeah? I mean, no one really was. He 53 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: was number one in the world, he's the most hot 54 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: flyer and golf oh year. Really and no one really 55 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: picked him today. Everyone was picking every somebody else. No 56 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 1: one really believed he could keep doing it. But when 57 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: you watch what we saw the last four days, it's 58 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 1: kind of why I didn't wait. How obvious was it really? 59 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: I mean, the two form plans the year Cam and 60 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,119 Speaker 1: Scott in the last group, it seems to happen a lot. 61 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: We always ignore the form, but it's always it pops up. Um. Yeah, 62 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 1: and he looked really ropey those last three holes yesterday, 63 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,679 Speaker 1: it looked with the last three holes Saturday, and then 64 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: the first two or three, the way it was going through, 65 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,239 Speaker 1: walking up the third t, I didn't think Scotty could 66 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: win the Masters. It just didn't feel like that. It 67 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: just like felt like Cam was on it and Um, 68 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: Cam menaport tea shot, but it looked like he could 69 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: get away over it down there, and then Scotty, I've 70 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: never seen anyone down there on the third and then 71 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: Um makes it the chips and he flubs it really 72 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: and then makes an unbelievable shot. It's a really brave 73 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: shot that bumping it up that stope. It's really steep 74 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 1: to to make that, and walking off the third grain 75 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: and didn't feel like he could lose it, you know, 76 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: like in about a two minute stretch, it went from 77 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: like this is really sad for Scotty, like wow, he's 78 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: just gonna it. Just felt the energy and the whole 79 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: thing to me changed completely Um. And then after that 80 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: it was just he just put on a clinic. If 81 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: had to close out of time, it really didn't he 82 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: like if he missed a shot. He had a good 83 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: enough pitch and made a good Um. He had a 84 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: really good put on eleven. I thought was an incredible 85 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: part on top of Camp's Bertie Um and then twelve 86 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: sort of bit cam like it does. It's been a 87 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: lot of people before and he finished stuff. Well. Rory 88 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: was fun to watch. I mean it's become a bit 89 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: of a pattern and that it's sort of plays them 90 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: tough out of it and then comes home fast. And 91 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: he's always the best player in the field at the 92 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: end of the tournament, Rory, but he just does too 93 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 1: much damage at the start. But that was fun to watch, 94 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 1: fund to watch him play a team there. That was 95 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: kind of like if you if Rory finishing second of 96 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: the Master is never gonna make him happy unless he 97 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: finishes it like that. You know, he's walking out pretty boy, 98 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: that's a pretty fun way to finish second, you know. 99 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 1: So um that might sort of, I don't know, get 100 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 1: him coming back next year a bit low, sort of 101 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: happier just because of the way it also have ended. 102 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: You know, he's gonna have some pretty good memories of this. 103 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: So it's not over for Rory yet there Colin Colin 104 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: can't help but finished top five in Majors um incredible player. Yeah, 105 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: great week, fantastic. I mean it's sort of for a 106 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: for a Masters that generally they're usually clothe us, but 107 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: for one that finishes with a where they could he 108 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 1: had a full part and he could still have had 109 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: three more parts of still one. Um, it was an 110 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: incredibly it was an interesting master to watch when it 111 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 1: was a great Sunday, even though it wasn't really ever close. Yeah, Ryan, 112 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: what what what's your sense of Scottie Scheffler? Yeah, I 113 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: mean obviously going to be a star. Uh. You know, 114 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: I think, uh they talked a little bit about it 115 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: on the broadcast, but I mean Ted Scott has obviously 116 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: brought the guys on. They seemed very very comfortable together. Um. 117 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: I mean the guys alleged did a lot with Bubba obviously, 118 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 1: and I just I mean I was watching their interactions. 119 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: It seems like very loose and obviously they haven't been 120 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: together that long. So and obviously the results uh speak 121 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: for themselves. And to bring it back to Monday qualifiers, 122 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: which I always tried my best to do. Uh two 123 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: thousand eighteen, uh Utah Championship Corn Furry UM Champion Corn 124 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,799 Speaker 1: Furry Tour. Uh wells Ela Torus and Scottie Scheffler bullshot 125 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: sixty six US by two, and uh you know I 126 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 1: couldn't get it done. The next week, Scotty Monday qualified 127 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 1: and then missed the cut at the corn Furry event. 128 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: But they've done pretty well since then. Two of the 129 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: UH two or whatever will finished like fifth or something 130 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: like that. So I always watch out for Monday. Is 131 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: always the best players are at Monday's event at some 132 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: point in their career. I should I should mention that. Obviously, 133 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: imagine Ella this, Alan Schipnuk let us off. Jeff Ogilvie 134 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: was second Ryan French of Monday q Info and host 135 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 1: of the Grind podcast is with Us as well, and 136 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: now Las Versias, host of Grassroots with Legettro Jenkins also 137 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: joins us. Last, what's your sense of what you saw 138 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: this week from Scotty Scheffler. I think back to Scotty's 139 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: dad when he became number one in the world, and 140 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 1: he hugged Scotty and said, as great as a golf 141 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: for you are, you're a better person. And the reason 142 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 1: I think about that is because I think every at 143 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: he watching, you know, he was like the best friend 144 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: that that you want to hang out with when you 145 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: go back home from college. He's just kind of that guy. 146 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: A friend of mine worked at Olympia Fields in just 147 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: outside of Chicago in when they had the Junior Ryder Cup, 148 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: and the first thing he told me about it was 149 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: the Scottie Scheffler kid is the nicest person on the 150 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: planet and he's one heck of a player. Keep an 151 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: eye out for him. So as a person, you gotta 152 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: love that. It was interesting to see that he was 153 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: always he answered the bell quite a bit, he put 154 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: the ball in some awkward positions off the first he 155 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 1: today was left. He had a really courageous punch and 156 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: that was a heck of an up and down and 157 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: you know, Cam goes Birdie Birdie Adam right out of 158 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: the gate. So I was impressed with his ability to 159 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: stay in the moment and and to have that composure. 160 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: And when you look back at people that when the masters, 161 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: very rarely do people make a double bogey, and when 162 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: the masters you it's a generous course in a lot 163 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: of ways that you've got to control your ball. And 164 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: you didn't see Scotty make one until the four part 165 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: on eighteen, So an amazing job of composure of just 166 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: kind of being yourself and being prepared to see him 167 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: on the range so late after each round, hitting balls 168 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: deep into the night. Um, you know, as I questioned it, like, 169 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: you know, you know my body couldn't handle that. But clearly, 170 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: you know he has a game plan. It's kind of 171 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: steeped and remaining positive being in the moment, and and 172 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: it delivered, and it's been delivering for one heck of 173 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: a hot month here, So real grateful to have him 174 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 1: in the game. Yeah, And in fairness, I mean he 175 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: did get the better end of the draw playing in 176 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: the last group on Friday after the wind laid down 177 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 1: for that for a big portion of that late afternoon, 178 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: which had to help. So he was he was putting 179 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: out last the last three days of the Masters, which 180 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: also led to late night you know, late evening rain sessions. 181 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: But Alan, what's what's your sense of Cam and and 182 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: his performance coming off a player's championship and and and 183 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: what he could till as his point, Scotty to be 184 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 1: one under through four or five holes there today, he 185 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: could have easily been four over, And I think that's 186 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: really ended up being the way he wanted, was salvaging 187 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: something early on and getting that chip in and turning. 188 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: But Cam kept coming at him and until twelve there 189 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: was still there was still very much a tournament going 190 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: on for sure, although I'm not sure Camp never totally 191 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 1: recover from the third hole. I mean it looked like, 192 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: you know, cam Smith has maybe the best short game 193 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: in Gulf, and he's thinking, all right, well, I'm gonna 194 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: get up and down. He's not. We're gonna be We're 195 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: gonna be tired, and instead he walked off, you know, 196 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: three behind. It was. It was such a gut punch 197 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 1: and he could never close the gap. He never got 198 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,559 Speaker 1: closer than three strokes, and uh, you know it was 199 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: hard to watch because he out at twelve. He kind 200 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,199 Speaker 1: of lost the plot a little bit. It was just 201 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: you know, tossing the club and his body language and 202 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: he just looked so be And that's what this course does. 203 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, Jeff was talking about the energy 204 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: and the excitement of the finish and that's what the 205 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: Masters are known for. But there's a dark side of that. 206 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: There's a lot of broken hearts and a lot of 207 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: broken spirits, and that's part of what makes it so poignant. 208 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: You know that you think about you know, Phil Phil 209 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: Mikinson's spot to win, but that that image of Ernie's 210 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 1: sitting there, you know, eating the apple. He never really 211 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: recovered from that, it felt like, at least not at 212 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: this particular venue. And um, camp Smith is so talented. 213 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: He obviously he's played, he has. This is his fourth 214 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: top ten the last five Masters. I mean, it seems 215 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 1: Taylor made for him. But you know that something like 216 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: would happen to him at twelve leaves the bruise. I mean, 217 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: think about about speech and he hasn't be able to 218 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:43,599 Speaker 1: get it done here since since he cracked up in 219 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: two thousand and sixteen. And it's just that was hard 220 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: to watch and I felt for him. I mean, I 221 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: think we all love camp Smith. He's a he's a 222 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: likable bloke and he's just fun to watch and all that. 223 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: But um, he you know, he's just the latest have 224 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: his heartbroken by a gust a national. What do you think, Jeff, 225 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: what do you what are your thoughts on Cam in 226 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: his future? Massive future? I mean, he's such a dedicated guy, 227 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 1: and he's sort of as serious as he looks in 228 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: those last feear out of those Majors, as good as 229 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: he looks, and is determined and sort of calm. He's 230 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 1: pretty loose and relaxed. Off the course. You know, he 231 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,959 Speaker 1: doesn't take it all too seriously once he gets off 232 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: the course. He's a sort of guy who'll get over 233 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: this a little bit more than I think others. Um, 234 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: I mean, twelve gets if you play the Masters long enough, 235 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,079 Speaker 1: twelve is going to get you. I mean, it doesn't 236 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: happen to thankfully, it doesn't happen to everyone on a Sunday, 237 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: but it's going to get you at some point. I 238 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: think you will learn from He's a sort of guy 239 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: who'll sort of shake that off and he'll be leaving 240 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: with He'll be leaving feeling like he can win the Masters, 241 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: almost more than he would have been any other one, 242 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. He doubled the first on Thursday, 243 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: double the last on Thursday. He had a lot of 244 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: stuff go wrong. I mean, to Allen's point, the third 245 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: was just a massive It was the biggest momentum shift 246 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: I think I've ever seen in a seven year old tournament. 247 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: I've never seen anything like it ever. Um. It was 248 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 1: a match play, like you know, because it really kind 249 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,319 Speaker 1: of was those two unless someone else did something crazy. Um, 250 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: and he he had an unbelievbal shot at four that 251 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,479 Speaker 1: just missed by a couple of yards, you know, Um, 252 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: and did well and twelve got him and he did 253 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: look pretty rattled the next couple of holes. But I mean, 254 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 1: I haven't been in exactly that situation, but I think 255 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: anyone who's played long enough knows what he felt like. 256 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: And he wanted to be anywhere but the golf course 257 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 1: WoT down thirteen. I mean, all the air comes out 258 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 1: of your balloon. I mean he's been thinking about this 259 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: tournament for twelve months. Realistically, he's been grinding for it 260 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: since probably after the British Open last year. Every practice 261 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 1: session he's had for the last two or three months 262 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: has been about this, and so there there's a lot 263 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: of air in your balloon when you get here, and 264 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: when it all gets taken out in one hole, Um, 265 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: it's pretty hard to sort of keep very equilibrium for 266 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: a couple of holes. But but he fifteen sixty was 267 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: pretty like he could have just drifted off and finished 268 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 1: in an ambulance. But yeah, a strong, good guy. He 269 00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 1: walked off with a smile in his face, I think 270 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 1: a raw smile. But I think he'll be back. I mean, 271 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: we saw that about a lot of guys. I mean, 272 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: why would have thought Rory hasn't won one yet, but um, 273 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: Cam looks as good as anyone. I mean, he's going 274 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: to be in the discnversation that every year when we 275 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,599 Speaker 1: come to this stuff anement. Well, let let me just 276 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: say something real quick about the seventh hole too, because 277 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: you know, as you know Jeff, that's that green's kind 278 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: of blind from the fairway. So both him and Scotty 279 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: hit great shots. The crowd went crazy and camp sing, right, 280 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 1: maybe I'll pick one up here, and you get up 281 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 1: to the green and Scotty's inside of him. He's like, 282 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: what do I have to do to shake this guy? 283 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 1: You know? That was that was a big moment um 284 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 1: and also for step player to play the first seven 285 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 1: and to wonder he knocked out almost everybody else who 286 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: had dreams of you know, maybe he'll come back and 287 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: so I'll go low like that start by Shuffler really 288 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: created so much daylight between him and the rest of 289 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: the field, so that that seventh hole I think, um, 290 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: it's a little overshadow about happened number three, But I 291 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: thought seven was was big too, because again Cam gave 292 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: him as best shot, and you know, Scotty's got a 293 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: tough chin. He just took it and gave it right back. Ryan, 294 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on Cam? Yeah, I'll take it 295 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: a little bit from a different angle. I think golf 296 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 1: needs characters and there's not enough of them. I mean, 297 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: Scotty's obviously super talented, but you know, he's very buttoned 298 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,439 Speaker 1: down quiet, and Cam has like the mullet and the 299 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: mustache and you know, like it's very like open and 300 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: uh says what he wants an interview is kind of 301 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: rory like, and uh, I think I think, I mean, 302 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: he's obviously talented to get to be there forever and 303 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: it seems like, like Jeff and Allen said, it's only 304 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: a matter of time until he wins one. But I 305 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: just love the character side of him. I think golf 306 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: needs needs more. Uh. Jim Smith's for sure, and Uh, 307 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: I mean I just really like him, huge fan that 308 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: it's impossible not to like him, impossible. I think, you know, 309 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: he's I talked to Peter Bessie about this right like. 310 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: There was an image that came up on the screen, 311 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: a little graphic that said Cam Smith would be the 312 00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: second Australian to win the Masters. In a lot of ways, 313 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: he would kind of be the first. And I say 314 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: that because there's kind of this tall poppy syndrome that 315 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 1: we we kind of equate with Australian culture and where 316 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: someone like Norman that wants to be celebrated, that wants 317 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: to have, you know, all the adoration not necessarily well 318 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: received in Australia. And I'm sure Jeff's familiar with the 319 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: tall poppy syndrome I talk about. But two, think about 320 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: cam start. He had bookend double bogies the first round 321 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: and squeezed eight berties on the remaining sixteen holes. It's amazing. 322 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: And then today he comes out Bertie Birdie, just out 323 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: of the gate, just a fighter. And I really would 324 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: love to know the line that he went with on 325 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: number twelve. I think he hit nine iron and I'd 326 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 1: be stunned if he was more than ten feet left 327 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 1: of the flag in his mind when he when he 328 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: took the club back. But I love watching him play. 329 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: He's now tied for third and tied for second in 330 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 1: the Masters. His ball flight fits well there, his attitude 331 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: fits well there. His sense of drama and showing up 332 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: in these moments obviously works for him there. So I 333 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: think he's a guy that you know, we're gonna get 334 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: a lot of in the future and hopefully you know, 335 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 1: a green jacket Augusta Jeff, give you a chance to 336 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: respond to whatever poppy syndrome is or whatever Las is 337 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: talking about the figure we should probably go to the 338 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: Australian for the Australian inside. Wow. I mean it is 339 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 1: kind of true we bring out complete legends down a 340 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: little bit because we don't want to be get ahead 341 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: of themselves. Right, It's a natural thing and it's kind 342 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: of a bit unfortunate when it comes to like golf 343 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: stars and stuff, but I would agree. I mean, Scotty 344 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: was the first AZZI obviously and it was really amazing. 345 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: But Cam is the most Australian Australian golfer. You know. 346 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: He is all aussy. Every Australian can relate to whim. 347 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: We've all got friends like him. He's like the guy 348 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 1: you're meeting the pub, you know, and have a good 349 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: Emma beer and a good chat with. So um. Absolutely, 350 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: he's the most Australian and Australian to be out there 351 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 1: for sure. He's like Shane Lowry of Australians, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, 352 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: the Irish of Irish. I have to ask Jeff something 353 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: because one of the things I do on Sundays I'll 354 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: go catch the early finishers and just get some thoughts 355 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: about the leaders, so I have more material. I'm looking 356 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 1: for anecdotes and quotes and stuff. And so I caught 357 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: Adam Scott by the clubhouse and we were talking about 358 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: Cam and he was great, and he said, he's, um, 359 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 1: a bogan Is that that right? Is that the right term? Yeah? Bog? 360 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: And yeah, bit of a bug and yeah, And I 361 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: was and I suppose that He's like, oh, you're gonna 362 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: have to look it up me. And after Cam drifted away, 363 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: I never googled that. Can you explain to us what 364 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: a bogan is? Because apparently it's like a big thing 365 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: with Really it's kind of it's a lovable sort of 366 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: term for red nicky, what trashy kind of you know, 367 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: like just really it's just but it's lovable, you know, 368 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: it's like in that really good spirit, you know, just 369 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: like loud cut, loud cut a crazy crazy haircuts. But 370 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: if you know a bugging, you know a bug And 371 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 1: I guess, yeah, okay, that's awesome. I'm gonna use that 372 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: another time. That's he's Camp. It's Cam, the cable guy 373 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: is basically what, yeah, a little bit, a little bittally 374 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: totally Um, all right, let's let's just quick whip around 375 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: on on Rory before we get to Tiger. But I 376 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:28,360 Speaker 1: mean again, uh, seventy three, seventy one, boom sixty four, 377 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: back door second place Masters leaving with the smiless face. Jeff, 378 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: you've already kind of touched upon it. But Alan, what 379 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: are your thoughts on Rory? I mean Rory, he's well, 380 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 1: he's got the most frustrating golfer in history. Like he's 381 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 1: on an absolute heater. He can do no wrong. He 382 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: is destroying gust the national and all of a sudden 383 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: he creeps up enough where he might actually have a chance. 384 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: You know, everyone's doing the math. Okay, if you can, 385 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 1: if you can get three more coming in and kind 386 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: of course, you know, fifteen, which is not an easy hole, 387 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 1: but it's definitely an opportunity. One of the greatest drivers 388 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 1: of the golf ball ever yanked dead left, makes a 389 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: disappointing part. Go to sixteen, which we all know is attackable, 390 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 1: and it's kind of in a different shot. And that 391 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 1: was and then then at that moment, you know that. 392 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: That's when when Scotty kind of regrouped in sky Scheffler 393 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: and and step you know, Stephan Aboy's neck. But there 394 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 1: was a little brief moment where Rory had a chance 395 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: to make it really interesting and he knew it and 396 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: those are like his first bad swings of the day. 397 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 1: You know, he just kind of you know, he's free 398 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: wheeling and just chasing and having fun and almost I 399 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: was like, holy shit, have a chance, like I have 400 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: a chance to win the Masters. And then started at 401 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: the ball side was was and so it was it 402 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 1: was vexing as always. I mean, the highlight in eighteen, 403 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: of course was was fabulous and uh CBS replayed it 404 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: like twenty times because they were just trying to fill 405 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 1: air time and it'll it'll live on and it was. 406 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: It was a great moment for sure, and a great shot. 407 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 1: But at that point, you know, uh, he just he 408 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,640 Speaker 1: like he'd squandered some really important chances on the back 409 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: nine and probably wasn't have mattered. But you know, let's 410 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: let's say Rory makes makes a three or four on 411 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,239 Speaker 1: fifteen and stuff on sixteen, Shefflers are going to hear 412 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 1: those roars and you don't know what's gonna happen behind them. Um, 413 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,719 Speaker 1: but it just wasn't meant to be. Now, obviously we're 414 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,239 Speaker 1: asking to play a perect round of golf. But when 415 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: you start out seventy three, seventy three and you're Roy girl, 416 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: you gotta played for a round of golf and you 417 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 1: just didn't quite do it. It's so funny because it 418 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: just seems like, well, Scheffler, you know, plays well here, 419 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: and then Headeki plays well here, and Jordan's Peith plays 420 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,640 Speaker 1: well here, and cam Smith is definitely gonna win here 421 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: next year, and but Rory looks like it's inevitable for 422 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 1: him to win. Dj is always going to be a contender, 423 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: Brooks plays well at the Major. The amount of people 424 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: you can make a case for coming out of this week, 425 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 1: and just sort of golf in general is always seems 426 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: to be why we have these incredible masters on a 427 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 1: regular basis. It's just it's the venue, and it's it's 428 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: the star power and the and the drama of that 429 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: of that. Certainly that second nine, Ryan, what are your 430 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: thoughts on Rory and just sort of where do we 431 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: go from here? Yeah? I mean Ellen, Ellen, Nil is 432 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: like you feel like Rory just cannot get over that hump. 433 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously sixty four on Sunday at the Masters 434 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: by itself is unreal boot you know, a relatively easy 435 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 1: uh you know wedge on fifteen. You know he thought 436 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: he got a bad break but misses that button then 437 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 1: you know all and said it on sixteen. He doesn't 438 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 1: doesn't get It's just like he just creeps us to 439 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: the edge of like he's gonna win the Masters, and 440 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: then you know, crushes our souls. So I don't think 441 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 1: there's anyone talked on Twitter who's had such an amazing 442 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: career but more disappointingly than on than Rory McIlroy. I mean, 443 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 1: the guy just gets hammered on Twitter. I'm a huge 444 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 1: Rory fan, but he's always like just cheases us endlessly 445 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: and uh another another year last is he is? He? 446 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 1: Do you hammer him on Twitter like you hammer everybody 447 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 1: else on Twitter? Yeah, but I'm back in on Rory 448 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: at this point. Um. I you know, if you would 449 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 1: have asked me as Rory ever going to win another major, 450 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 1: I would have said no. Now I think he he will, 451 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: and I'll tell you why. I think you know we've 452 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: he did. He comes out of the gate with the birdie, 453 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 1: and yes he's playing from the middle of the pack, 454 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: so like we can say all that, right, but you know, 455 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 1: on two he's got within, he's within one sixty on 456 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 1: the par five makes a par unfortunately, but when he 457 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 1: gets to the back, he showed me something with his wedges, 458 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 1: the pitch and the vision and the line that he 459 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: took on fourteen was amazing. He played it kind of 460 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 1: high and left and let the contour bring the ball 461 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: back to the hole. Obviously he holds out on eighteen. 462 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give him credit for that shot on fifteen 463 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: because that's a really difficult shot with the ball below 464 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: your feet and he he's a foot from that, kind 465 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: of nestling back and taking the taking the hill back 466 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: to be you know, three or four ft or so. 467 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: He showed me a lot. Yeah, it would have been 468 00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 1: nice to if it had a better shot on sixteen. 469 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: But I think I think he's found something in his 470 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 1: heart and it's going to come out with the hunger, 471 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: and I look forward to seeing more of that rory, 472 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: uh than than the rory that you know he gets 473 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 1: hammered for no the web the wedge on fifteen was solid. 474 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: It is just to drive. I mean he had missed 475 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 1: a drive all day. He led the field and driving 476 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: just into three yards. I mean he was hitting his 477 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 1: driver beautifully. And fifteen is like the do or die 478 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: swinging of that round for him. You know, he's done 479 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 1: the hard work to get himself a position. He just 480 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: has to finish it. And you know that's just that 481 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 1: Rory in a nutshell, Like he's there, he's on the precipice. 482 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: If he if he can, if he can attack fifteen, 483 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: like who knows what's going to happen? And nobody eagles 484 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: fifteen this year, Alan, nobody right fifth day is completely 485 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 1: giant to stay. It's a completely differ the hole now, 486 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,920 Speaker 1: like nobody went for the grain. Um, he had to 487 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:56,719 Speaker 1: try it along one day. Like I think you've been 488 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: a little bit hard on the guy. I mean sixty 489 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: four in the last round of the Master's um. The 490 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 1: shot on sixteen, if it had landed two yards further, 491 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 1: it was going to go stiff like it was. We've 492 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: seen a lot of balls land where his ball landed, 493 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: and they were next to the whole. I mean he 494 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 1: got soft bounce, He landed a bit short. Um, he 495 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: sprayed on seventeen and missed the eighth Graham. But I mean, 496 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, Like he finished off that round pretty 497 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: well if asked me, I mean, I don't know. I 498 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: don't know. It's they're not easy shots. I mean, I 499 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 1: don't know. I always I've just left nothing but impress 500 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 1: and just he knows he didn't lose the tournament today. 501 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,119 Speaker 1: He didn't lose it on fifteen, and he didn't lose 502 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: it anywhere we're talking about. He lost on Thursday and Friday. 503 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 1: So um, he's proven that when he's in front, he's good. 504 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: He just has to find out how to get in front, 505 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: you know, Like he's just going to get through Thursday 506 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: and Friday and I think he's he'll have that place 507 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 1: worked out. But um, you can't start ten back or 508 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: where he started and realistically ever think you're gonna win 509 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 1: the tournament. And if he had made two more birdies 510 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 1: and got made it a bit more interesting, it would 511 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: have been the most historic round of all time ever, 512 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 1: Like he's two shots away from total history. So um, 513 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. People can get on Rory. It's really 514 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 1: hard to do what he does, and everybody loves watching 515 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: him play so as long as he keeps playing, I'm 516 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: gonna keep watching and I'll always be a fan. So 517 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: I love him. But when one I think he deserves 518 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: a career Grand Slam as good as he is, Um, 519 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: he's a as good as he is, he deserves it, 520 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: I think. Well, I mean that that's a needed perspective. 521 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: Thank you for bringing some sanity this conversation, Jeff. But 522 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 1: and I did like what you said, like the way 523 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,360 Speaker 1: he left the course feeling triumphant. I think the Masters 524 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 1: has felt a little oppressive to him, or a lot oppressive. 525 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: And maybe this, this changes it. You know, that that 526 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: lightness that he had and the joy, he hasn't felt 527 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: that around here very much. So I mean, maybe we'll 528 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 1: look back on this Sunday and this will be like 529 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 1: a real important turning point. So who knows. Uh, let's 530 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: all hope because it would be awesome to see it. 531 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 1: It's like if you get to if he gets one 532 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: green jacket, he might get for you know, like he 533 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: just has to get the first one, so we'll see 534 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 1: what happens. Let's uh, let's let's quickly touch on Tiger 535 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 1: one last time. You know, started getting hard to watch there, 536 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 1: you know, through the throws of the weekend, just with 537 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: the hobbling and wobbling and uh some of the shots. 538 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 1: But you gotta, i mean granted yet another comeback that 539 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: you know that was caused by his own doing obviously 540 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 1: with with you know, wrecking a car um for whatever 541 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 1: reason and and for however it happened. But at the 542 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: end of the day, you gotta tip your cap to 543 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 1: this guy who who who who not only came back 544 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,879 Speaker 1: but made the cut and played all four rounds and 545 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: continue to grind all the way through For me, I 546 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,200 Speaker 1: you know, I just I think, just when you think 547 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: you've seen everything from this guy, he does yet another 548 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: sort of unthinkable thing on the golf course and he 549 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,880 Speaker 1: did it again this week. Alan. Yeah, just another legendary 550 00:26:54,920 --> 00:27:00,399 Speaker 1: performance in its own way. Um. You know, the get 551 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: easier st Andrews, which he committed to playing in his 552 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: in his post round comments is a much easier walking 553 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 1: augusta National, a lot more time to prepare. He played 554 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 1: just enough throwback shots to remind you that it's still there, 555 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: like he's still going to find a way to do it, 556 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 1: um and play efficiently. Um, certainly he was, you know, 557 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 1: the rust and his putting showed on Saturday. I mean, 558 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 1: that's probably the worst putting around we've ever seen from 559 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: Tiger Woods at Augusta Nationals. He has been putting at home, 560 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: but you can't replicate these slopes and these lines and 561 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: these speeds, and you just have to play in tournaments 562 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: on the PGA Tour to even have a chance. And so, um, 563 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 1: the takeaway is that his will and his his grit, 564 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 1: his determination is just never been equaled except for me 565 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 1: by Ben Hogan. And um, he's still got he's still got, 566 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 1: you know, some pretty magical hands and he'll he'll just 567 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: find a way to manufacture a swing. So he's always 568 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,719 Speaker 1: gonna be dangerous on the right courses. And I think 569 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: he proved that to himself. He can get through saving 570 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 1: two holes. Now walking him a limp away from the 571 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,160 Speaker 1: clubhouse after he signed a scorecard, I mean, I think 572 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: when the cameras are on him, he was trying to 573 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: minimize it because of his pride, Like he was really 574 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: really dragon and hurting when it was over and the 575 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: adrenaline left his body and so but he did it. 576 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: I mean, that was a milestone from he got through 577 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 1: seving two holes and that that's the first test and 578 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: he passed it and reminded the world and you know 579 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: what Tiger Woods is, and it was it was a 580 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: thrill to to get a taste of it. Especially that 581 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: first round was just incredible. So it's gonna be exciting. 582 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: What is Tiger Woods like? The energy this week? Those 583 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: are one of the biggest crowds ever Augusta National and 584 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: because usually they're spread out and across different holes, everybody 585 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 1: on the course was falling Tiger and he's just he's 586 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 1: a phenomenon. Jeff, I'm I'm sure you noticed watching throughout 587 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: the week and weekend. I mean, there's just a noticeable 588 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: humility to him that I've certainly never seen, acknowledging crowd 589 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 1: thanking his team around him make it more about appreciating 590 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: the appreciation more so than every ever before. Is that 591 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: is that what you picked up on as well? Yeah, finally, 592 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: And I mean there was obviously an incredible effort to 593 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 1: do what he did, and like, I think we didn't 594 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: really know how he felt, really, I mean we're guessing 595 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: and we could go on what he says, but he 596 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:21,959 Speaker 1: don't really know. But like seeing him walk that off 597 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: the eighth grade every single day, really it didn't look 598 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: looked fun And yeah, like Allen said, when he finished, 599 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: it's like he went through some pretty tough stuff to 600 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: finish that. So that's just amazing and how good he is. 601 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's Finnily. He actually looks like he had 602 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 1: more fun playing like that than he did when he 603 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: was playing great. You know, like he actually looked like 604 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: he really appreciated being there. Um as you said, acknowledged 605 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 1: the Gallery's gave great interviews at the end of and 606 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 1: he there was a few years in the middle where 607 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: he wouldn't give you very much. I'm sure Allen you 608 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 1: were on the end of some of those quick little answers. 609 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: But I mean he was great at the end of 610 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: him want to stay and answer more questions, and just 611 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: he just seemed so happy to be playing golf, you know. 612 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess when you sort of you sit 613 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:03,719 Speaker 1: on the edge of the abyss, and when you get 614 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: back and you're actually at the Masters and you're playing golf, 615 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: it must feel pretty nice. So great to see him back. 616 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: I mean, who knows six months down, well, not six months, 617 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 1: what are he three? Three months down the road to 618 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 1: the old course. I mean, it's it's the course out 619 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: of every course in the world, that would probably engage 620 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: him even more than Augusta would. Um, he'll be incredibly 621 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 1: motivated to play well there. I mean that's arguably his 622 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 1: favorite place. Um, as Alan says, a much easier walk 623 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: he's got, he'll have a few more months of fitness 624 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 1: and rehab under his belt. I mean, he sort of. 625 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: He would have learned a lot this week, I'm sure 626 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: about how his game responds to how his body is, 627 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: and he wouldn't really known that. Augustus as challenging as 628 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: it gets for your body because you hit enough side 629 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: slopes and down slopes and tired all the time because 630 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: you're walking. And there couldn't be a harder place to 631 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 1: do what he just did than that. And the old 632 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: course is gonna be a little bit easier than that, 633 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: and they'll have a couple more months, and um, you 634 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: wouldn't put it past him to win around a place 635 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: like that because of his sense of history and place 636 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 1: in the game. So just go to see him back, 637 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: As Allen says him, I guess we we have to 638 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: watch every time he applies now because we don't have 639 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: many more times. We're gonna get a chance. Yeah, Yeah, 640 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 1: Ryan equally impressed by the performance you put out. Yeah, 641 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I uh, and I just speak personally, I don't. 642 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I would love to see him contend or whatever. 643 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: I don't care because every time I he tease it up. 644 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: I just appreciate that we all grew up and was 645 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: able to watch his dominance. You know. It's just kind 646 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: of reminds you that we're super lucky to all see 647 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 1: the best of the best, like um, you know, Kyle 648 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 1: Porter tweeted it before it's like he has no chance, 649 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,239 Speaker 1: and I agreed with Kyle. I just would to put 650 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: it out on Twitter. And I wouldn't ever question Tiger 651 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: because you never know. So do I think he's gonna 652 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: win again? I don't think so. But I would never 653 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: never like say it's crazy or uh, he has no chance. 654 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: But I just appreciate watching him because all of us 655 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 1: got to grow up and watch you know, in my opinion, 656 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 1: the greatest golfer of all time, the most dominant for sure. 657 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 1: Did you enjoy it last I loved it. I to 658 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: see him still have the you know, kind of the 659 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 1: soft skills right like his his wedges look sharp and 660 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: sharp enough right to kind of make the cot and 661 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 1: hang around. But when he said, you know, I wake 662 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: up every day with a new challenge, and I fight 663 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 1: the fight, and and to get that message to all 664 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: of us, not just as children, but but all of 665 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: us to kind of see what he's been through and 666 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 1: continue to answer the bell every day was really inspiring. 667 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 1: You know, I will say I for a moment, I 668 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: was so worried for him that I was like, you know, buddy, 669 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 1: like if if you've done enough right, Like not that 670 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: I was cheering for him to miss the cup, but 671 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 1: he was putting his body through so much we'll never know, right, 672 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: like the pain he went through. But it was so 673 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 1: inspiring to see him gut it out and finish it, 674 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: and it looked very laborous that the end. For sure. 675 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 1: I was left wondering, like, at at what point in 676 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: this process did he start to think, you know what, 677 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put it together again. I'm gonna play in 678 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: the Masters? You know. If somebody might have reported on 679 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 1: that or asked that and I missed it. But so 680 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: inspiring in and out of golf, I don't I can't 681 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 1: think of an athlete that's meant more in my lifetime 682 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: than Tiger. I think he eclipses Jordan's everyone he is 683 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 1: he is singular. I mean that that goes into the 684 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 1: crowds right to have it felt like the actual Masters 685 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 1: was back. I know we've had two since COVID and 686 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 1: they did a hell of a job getting tournaments together 687 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: and being able to put something forward. But there was 688 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: nothing like being able to see those those shots, those 689 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: shots that caused those reactions that they could then play 690 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 1: that we could hear at different parts of the course 691 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 1: while someone else was plutting or chipping, to be able 692 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: to hear those role or it was like the first 693 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: time it felt like the Masters was back. Alan, What 694 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 1: was it like being out there? Yeah, you know the 695 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: obviously the November Masters, there was no fans last year 696 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: with the decie was limited. Those were runaways for the 697 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: most part, and so there there has been a dearth 698 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 1: of roars and you know John Ram touched on this. 699 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: I think they let in more fans this year. It's 700 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:26,919 Speaker 1: kind of a way to make it up to folks 701 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: who have missed out the last two years. Like I 702 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 1: have never seen crowds like like Tiger had. This is 703 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,719 Speaker 1: my twenty six Masters. They were the biggest ever because 704 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: even when he's winning tournaments on on Sundays, you know, 705 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 1: people would go and stake out their spots and some 706 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: people are in a man corner and some are waiting 707 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 1: around eighteen, but everybody followed Tiger. It was just this 708 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 1: this sense of like this this might be my last chance. 709 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: You never know, like this is living history and people 710 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: just want to reach out and touch them and metaphorically 711 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,800 Speaker 1: and just feel like they're part of it. So it 712 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 1: was electric. And to the point you guys are making 713 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: that there was it was you know, Tiger used to 714 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: inspire awe or uh, you know, emotions like that. This 715 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: was different. This was more like gratitude. People were just 716 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: so so happy to see him out there, and Tiger 717 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 1: exuded that, you know, he was it's almost giddy after 718 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: his rounds, Like Jeff mentioned the interviews, like he was 719 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 1: loose and funny and he had a huge smile plaster 720 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:20,800 Speaker 1: on his face and we know he was hurting. But 721 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: I think that's really the word going forward. It's just 722 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: he has tremendous gratitude to be back between the ropes 723 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,280 Speaker 1: and all of us feel that, you know, we're getting 724 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 1: this last act. We don't know what it's gonna look 725 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 1: like how long it's gonna last? And so these are 726 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 1: precious and it was just there was a different feeling 727 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 1: in the air from Tiger and everyone around him, and 728 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 1: it was really special. Jeff, the the you know, in 729 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: addition to crowd noise, and we touched about a little bit. 730 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: But and you said earlier in the week, they always 731 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 1: seemed to get it right. I myself really loved the 732 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: dial back on eleven and yet keeping a couple of 733 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 1: trees there the way the eleventh played, the way the 734 00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 1: way the tenth eleventh played, and then twelve being other 735 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 1: than fifteen with the added yardage like there's no eagles 736 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 1: and and created a lot of drama there. Have they 737 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 1: gotten it right? Yet? Again? Uh? They got I think 738 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 1: they got eleven mostly right because the eleven played like 739 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: eleven supposed to play right. Um, yeah, there'd be brave 740 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: and in a great shot like Cam did. If you didn't, 741 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 1: you head out to the right and you had a 742 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:21,800 Speaker 1: tough up and down. That's kind of what eleven is 743 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: all about. You know, It's never really been about hit 744 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,319 Speaker 1: the fair. It's about hit and unbelievably quality long iron shot. 745 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:28,320 Speaker 1: If you don't, you gotta tough up and down and 746 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 1: that kind of works. Um. I think fifteen, To be honest, 747 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: I think they got it a little bit wrong. Um. 748 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 1: I think maybe they got unlucky that it played into 749 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: the window week and it was really soft. I mean, 750 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 1: that was a lot of rain Tuesday Wednesday, and that 751 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: was an unbelievable my rain. I wouldn't be surprised if 752 00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: there's five on the front of that tea next year 753 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 1: on just a little bit closer to the grain, maybe 754 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:48,880 Speaker 1: a little bit higher in the air. I don't know, 755 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 1: maybe they want to give it a bit more time. 756 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 1: They usually always get it right. I mean when they 757 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: sort of two thousand and six when it got really 758 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: long and different, it seemed really tough there for a 759 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 1: couple of years, but it hav alted it like it 760 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 1: perfect again. They were ahead of the curve, you know, 761 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 1: in two thousands and six, even though it's sort of 762 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 1: still kept evolving since then. So they've got a lucky 763 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 1: with the whether they might give it another year on fifteen. 764 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 1: Dustin hit I and then after all, and he's kind 765 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 1: of a benchmark for what people are going to be 766 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:16,359 Speaker 1: hitting it like in the future. You know, a more 767 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 1: average guys probably um, distance wise, So maybe they got 768 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: it right, and maybe if it was a bit firmer, 769 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: there would have been a few more some of the 770 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: three inns and two ones into the grain, which is 771 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,359 Speaker 1: really what I want to say you. So, I thought 772 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:29,880 Speaker 1: fifteen really had a profound effect on the tournament, um 773 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 1: in a different way than it normally does. But as 774 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 1: you say, they always get it right, So I'm sure 775 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 1: that I'm sure it'll it'll turn back in though we 776 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,399 Speaker 1: see three out of four guys go for the green 777 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:43,439 Speaker 1: on Sunday like we always have before, I'm sure it'll 778 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 1: be there pretty soon. Let me say something about eleven, Jeff, 779 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 1: because you and I were talking about the trees that 780 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: poke out into the into the middle of the fairway. Now, Um, 781 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,959 Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw Dustin's triple Bogian eleven today, 782 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,360 Speaker 1: but he drove it right. He's trying to thread it 783 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 1: through the trees and he joinked one. It went further right, 784 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 1: and it was kind of what you call they would 785 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 1: create some fun recovery challenges, and um, you know it's 786 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 1: still aesthetically I have to get used to it, but 787 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 1: I think you're correct here analysis that it's content guys 788 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 1: to play shots and it's sometimes it's gonna bite them, 789 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: and that's kind of what you want. So I thought 790 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 1: that was kind of a fun little PostScript to how 791 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,799 Speaker 1: Elevin Couder would play was watching dust and make a seven? 792 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 1: There Ryan, any thoughts on on the course or the crowd. Alright, 793 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 1: I've been waiting for this moment from the beginning of 794 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 1: this spot. Okay, so for the people listening, but that 795 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: this is I'm gonna give you behind the scenes. Okay, 796 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 1: Matt comes on and he tells us, Hey, we don't 797 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 1: want to talk over each other. Here's the order, and 798 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 1: we'll go through the order. And then he goes and 799 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 1: then here's the subjects we want to cover, and he's 800 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: like Tiger Brooks and then he goes changes the fifteen 801 00:38:54,719 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: and I'm following Jeff fucking Ogilvie. Okay, the fucking redesigning 802 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,360 Speaker 1: with Dina. What the funk am I gonna say right now? 803 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: Why do you want me to say, Jeff Ogilvie, who's 804 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:11,479 Speaker 1: played in The Masters and has one of the best 805 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 1: design companies in the world, you'd like me to comment 806 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: after Jeff Ogilvie about what the changes look like? At 807 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 1: Augusta Nash Hey, uh yeah, I got nothing to fucking say. 808 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 1: Jeff Ogilvie just said everything. How about the crowd, how 809 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: about you can come out of the traffic. I mean, 810 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,359 Speaker 1: this is what people must have felt like following Eddie 811 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:35,839 Speaker 1: Murphy stand up, like, oh yeah, Ryan, what about right? 812 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 1: What does he think about the changes that Jeff, That's 813 00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 1: what I think. I'll defer to Jeff Ogilvin. He lies 814 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:55,279 Speaker 1: Ryan French, he agrees with Jeff. Yeah this is gonna 815 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: shocking map. But I'll counter Jeff. I think I think, um, 816 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 1: I think it's okay to have a par five that 817 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 1: that you're not necessarily going to have a six iron 818 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,479 Speaker 1: into with today's ball and club. I think the fact 819 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,399 Speaker 1: that when you do lay up to you know, say 820 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 1: nine hundred yards, it's a tough yard shot. I think 821 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 1: when the two people who were really playing for the 822 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 1: title ultimately got to fifteen, they both went for it 823 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,320 Speaker 1: into and obviously Cam Smith at the green and and 824 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, Scotty was just over and hit 825 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 1: a very underrated shot to to play to the hole there. 826 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 1: But um, I liked the whole lot. I enjoyed watching it. 827 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 1: It was very curious to see Scotty actually go for 828 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,919 Speaker 1: it from where he was. He pumped a really good drive. 829 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 1: I think he had like to forty left and maybe 830 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,319 Speaker 1: as adrenaline, but man, what a what an aggressive play 831 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:53,880 Speaker 1: there instead of laying up to to say, you know, 832 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 1: ninety yards there. But um, for me, like, I'm still 833 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,479 Speaker 1: loving the fact that you know, they're showing so much 834 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 1: of I think the cameras are better, right, Like you 835 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 1: see the Venice cam kind of bring out colors and 836 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:12,280 Speaker 1: contours and I never really appreciated like the mounding around 837 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 1: two and how that whole plays until this year. I think, um, 838 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 1: the wind was was really a factor early on and 839 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 1: how the holes played. But it I enjoyed it. And 840 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 1: you know, some people, you know, like you two, some 841 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 1: people don't write like it's just it's all it's all art. 842 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: It's just kind of opinions. But I enjoyed watching it. Well, 843 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,920 Speaker 1: Mattley just jump in here, because Scotty talked about fifteen. 844 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 1: He said he specifically did not want that wedge shot. 845 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 1: He was like, yeah, he was like avoiding the wedge shot. 846 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 1: That's why he went for the green. And it kind 847 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:48,799 Speaker 1: of makes sense because if you go for the green 848 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,399 Speaker 1: and you're hitting the water, you can still make five. 849 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 1: But if you lay up and you're hitting the water, 850 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 1: now you're in real trouble because you're not gonna make 851 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 1: five and you after that wedg shot again from where 852 00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 1: you just you just rinsed it. So, um, I think 853 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 1: that's any interesting calculus like we have. That's maybe the 854 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 1: hardest wind shot in golf, along with four team at 855 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,320 Speaker 1: Pebble Beach, and people are gonna actually just trying to 856 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,359 Speaker 1: avoid the layoup if they can. So it's a whole 857 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: other calculus. Now to final comments Jeff as the degree 858 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 1: of difficulty that third shot into fifteen might be the 859 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:24,800 Speaker 1: hardest WED shot in the world. Um. A little easier 860 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 1: to today's pin on the right hand side, but the 861 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 1: ones on the left. Scottie. I was always like, Scottie, 862 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 1: if I could get it there over the water into, 863 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 1: I'd get it over the water into. You do not. 864 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,839 Speaker 1: That's the start. It's an incredibly difficult WED shot down 865 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 1: slope ball above the feet. You've got about two or 866 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 1: three to landed in or bounced over the back of 867 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 1: spins off the front. M So yeah, look at little 868 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 1: of all perfect fifteen. It's a great hole. Um yeah, 869 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 1: it look great, but it's always good enot the master's fun, 870 00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:50,840 Speaker 1: um crazy weather. It always seems to finish in the 871 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,320 Speaker 1: sunshine on Someday afternoon. Done at the right time, somehow, 872 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,680 Speaker 1: it just finishes. Drama came out of a tournament in 873 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 1: the tourroom where really the leader wouldn't have much drama, 874 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 1: but we still had a lot of dry learn a 875 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 1: lot of noise, and Colin and Rory got everyone e 876 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 1: started on the last and um tag applied, which, as 877 00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:07,800 Speaker 1: Alan said, I'd never say an atmosphere. And when he 878 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:09,239 Speaker 1: walked out onto that tell you on Monday for the 879 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 1: practice round, I've never felt anything like that. That was 880 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 1: just outrageous um energy for a Monday, non holl practice round. 881 00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:19,440 Speaker 1: Um the Gulf world is just a better place when 882 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 1: he's plying, you know, so um fantastic, enjoyed it can't 883 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,800 Speaker 1: wait for next year, all right, Jeff, thanks again for 884 00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 1: joining us this week.

World's 908 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:46,279 Speaker 1: hard to believe. He was a twelfth man on the 909 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 1: Ryder Cup team just in September, and um, now he's 910 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 1: the man. It's incredible performance. I can't wait to see 911 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:55,800 Speaker 1: where he goes from here. You know, he has a 912 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:58,759 Speaker 1: real star quality in its game. And yeah, the Master 913 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:01,719 Speaker 1: just always delivers no matter what, uh, I mean, that's 914 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:04,320 Speaker 1: why we anticipated so much.
