1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:08,640 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Phil Mickelson wins the PGA Championship by a 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:12,720 Speaker 1: couple of strokes. His six major titles is now tied 4 00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:16,639 Speaker 1: with Nick Foudo and Lee Trevino. That's twelfth most all time. Jack, 5 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: of course, leads the way with eighteen, followed by Tiger 6 00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 1: and Walter Hagen with eleven. There aren't a lot of 7 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: you remember where you were when that happened moments in sports, 8 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: but if you're a golf fan, even if you're not 9 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,920 Speaker 1: a golf fan, Sunday was one of them. At age fifty, 10 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 1: Phil Mickelson became the oldest golfer ever to win a major. 11 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: He came in Sunday at the PGA Championship. He had 12 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: a one stroke lead over brooks Kaepka. You had the 13 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 1: young and the old there on a very difficult course 14 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: at Kiawa Island, and it probably would have been hard 15 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: to feel very confident in any front runner, let alone 16 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: Phil Mickelson. He didn't have a single top twenty finish 17 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: this year, and not only did he make golf history, 18 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: he reminded us of why sports can be so special. 19 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: Golf fans are invested in Phil Mickelson. You could certainly 20 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: see that. I think Phil having a full gallery there, 21 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,760 Speaker 1: it kind of he fed off of that, and you 22 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 1: could see that in the final few holes there. But 23 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: he was calm, trying to be calm in a massive 24 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: people on eighteen and it's something you can't script. That's 25 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: what's beautiful about sports and something that we won't forget 26 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: for a long long time. By the way, I know 27 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 1: it's a monumental occasion for what Phil did, and on 28 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: that course you just surviving there. But he doesn't look fifty. 29 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: If Phil Mickelson walked down the street and you didn't know, 30 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: if Phil Mickelson and you said to your wife, how 31 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,199 Speaker 1: old do you think that guy looks, she'd probably say, 32 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: I don't know, early forties. If you go back in history, 33 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: they were comparing him to Okay, Jack was forty six 34 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: when he won the Masters. They have a guy named 35 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: Old Tom Morris. The fact that his name is old 36 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: Tom Morris and he looks like he's really really old. 37 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,559 Speaker 1: He was forty nine years of age when he won. 38 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: And this is back in what the eighteen hundred. Have 39 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: you seen David Letterman with the beard now like this 40 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: old Tom Morris looked like Letterman, only about twenty years older. 41 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: Old Tom Morris looked like he was eighty. Tom Brady 42 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: doesn't look his age or play his age. Lebron doesn't 43 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 1: look or play his age. Phil doesn't look or play 44 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: his age. But you know, Tiger was going through an 45 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: awful lot to come back to be able to win. 46 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: Nobody thought Nobody thought that there was a chance that 47 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: Tiger could come back and win a major, didn't. I mean, 48 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: Phil hasn't battled anything. He battles himself, and ten years 49 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: ago Phil probably doesn't win that event, which may sound strange. 50 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,399 Speaker 1: I think by being fifty or at least, you get 51 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: to that age where you start to think differently. And 52 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: I think Phil decided I need to change a little bit. 53 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,399 Speaker 1: I just can't take over a golf course. I can't dominate. 54 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: I gotta be smart. And what we always loved with 55 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: Mickelson was he would take chances. He'd be like us, 56 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: where we go, Yeah, I think I can get it there, 57 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: and of course we wouldn't get it there. But Phil's 58 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,239 Speaker 1: playing in a major, and I think when I watched 59 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: him play yesterday, I saw maturity. I just saw somebody 60 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: who had to think his way around a golf course, 61 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: whereas brooks Kepka is he's a physical specimen, and you 62 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 1: feel like he thinks he could take down a golf course. 63 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: That was a course you had you think your way through. 64 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: And Phil didn't play great. He survived, but that's all 65 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: he needed to to do. And all you have to 66 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: do is don't put up a big number. If you 67 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: look at the par five's, Phil was three under, brooks 68 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: Kepka three over. There's your tournament right there. I mean, 69 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: you would think brooks Keapka would have an advantage on 70 00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: par five's over Phil Mickolson, but he didn't. Yesterday. It 71 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: was great to hear the gallery, the fans like just 72 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: having that kind of full throat people. They were let 73 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: out of captivity. I mean, really that's what it was. 74 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: It felt like we're going to release you from captivity. 75 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: Go have fun. You had great weather, you had great golf, 76 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: a couple of beverages, and you had some people who 77 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: had a great time. And that's a wonderful place. If 78 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: you ever get a chance to go down to Kiowa 79 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: and play any of those courses, wonderful host down there, 80 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: and you're not very far from Charleston. It's a great destination. 81 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: But I will say if you play that ocean course, 82 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 1: no matter if you're playing it from the uptis, it's challenging. 83 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 1: It'll bring you to tears. It's that challenging. But those 84 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: guys yesterday, those are the best in the world, and 85 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: they treated him like they played on the weekend with you. 86 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: All Right, what else do you have? Mc clevin? Okay, 87 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 1: what do you think? Wait? Does somebody think that Phil 88 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: what Piel did yesterday rivals what Tiger did in twenty nineteen. Poulie, Well, 89 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: the wording of the poll question was which was more historic? 90 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: If you said which is bigger? Tiger was a bigger weekend, 91 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: bigger reaction, but there's no history involved. He didn't pass 92 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: Jack Nicholas, and it was great for Tiger Woods and 93 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: for golf. Phil kind of etched himself in because Phil 94 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: doesn't have much history. He's not in top five in majors. 95 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: He's never been number one in the world, I don't think. 96 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: And but yesterday he put himself in where he might 97 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 1: be the oldest guy to win a major for quite 98 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: a while. And that's historic. So the word historic there 99 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: kind of alters the poll a little Yeah, it's historic 100 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: for golf. Yeah, bigger was Tiger's weekend. Yeah, okay, a 101 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: little tricky there with the word you know, be in semantics. Yeah, no, 102 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 1: you're right about that. Yeah, you lead the league in submits, right, Yes, 103 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: we can't spell it, but I know what I mean. 104 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: What was a bigger deal Phil's first major or this 105 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 1: major two thousand and four Mass he broke through, Well, 106 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,919 Speaker 1: that was huge for him, just right for him, Like 107 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 1: this field felt really sweet for him yesterday. But that 108 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: can't rival your first made No, no, no, no, I 109 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,919 Speaker 1: ain't one at the Masters, because this is where we 110 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: kept waiting for Phil, Like, okay, Phil, let's go famous. 111 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: In college. I think they won the NCAA tournament by 112 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: fifty two strokes. I think his I think Arizona State 113 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: won the NCAA tournament by fifty two shots. But he's 114 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 1: been famous for a long time. We were just waiting 115 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 1: for him to be professionally famous. Yes, mcclemen. And he 116 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: hasn't won a US Open, right, and he's going to 117 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 1: his own of course, Tory Pines. Yeah, you give him 118 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:48,359 Speaker 1: a shot. Of course. That's why when people say, oh, 119 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: you have no shot, it'd be like, hey, Memphis has 120 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 1: no chance against Utah, Yeah they do, Yeah, they do. 121 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: Memphis has no chance against Golden State, Yeah they do. 122 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: Now you can say one person end, but they have 123 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: a chance because they're there. If you're not there, then 124 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: you have no chance. And Phil winning the you know, 125 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: PG Championship, he still hits it. I mean, he's still 126 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: in good shape, hits it far got flexibility. It just 127 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: Phil always hits a squirrely shot or two. Yesterday he 128 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: was good Like if you make a mistake, what do 129 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: you do after you make a mistake? That decides these tournaments? 130 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: And it's just a small thing where you know, you'd 131 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: have Kepka maker a bogey and Phil maker birdie and 132 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: you'd have a two shot swing and they were playing 133 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: with each other, you know, in that final twosoim there. 134 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: But I do think that that crowd was beneficial for Phil. 135 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: I think that he plays off the crowd. The crowd 136 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: loves him and was supporting him. We don't really know 137 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: Brooks Keepka. We like him when he's on this show. 138 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: He shows a lot of personality. Normally he does like 139 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: he's just out there. This is business. I'm out here 140 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: to win. Majors. And this is a guy who underwent 141 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: knee surgery in March this March, dealing with a kneecap 142 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: dislocation and ligament damage. The injury occurred while he was 143 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: with his family ten days earlier and he slipped and 144 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: the injury required the kneecap to be put back in place. 145 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 1: And remember he went to the Masters, so he had 146 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: all of that that he's dealing with. I just think 147 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: being there in the final twosome is pretty incredible. What 148 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: you know, brooks Kepka is you know, he's the one 149 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: that is you know, would have appeared older that you 150 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,319 Speaker 1: have an injury and you're coming back from an injury. 151 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: But Phil at age fifty almost fifty one, mick great story. 152 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan 153 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 1: Patrick Show week days in an am Eastern six am 154 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeart Radio app. 155 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: He's the Hall of Famer Reggie Miller on the program. 156 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: Reggie is doing games from the Atlanta Studios and had 157 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: Game one with the Grizzlies and the Jazz last night. 158 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: He's going to have the Heat and Bucks Game two 159 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: that's seven thirty Eastern and then it'll be on the 160 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: call for the Lakers and Sons.

My ankles hurt 167 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: so bad and it just took too long to warm 168 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: up my body. It's the recovery when you're playing four 169 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: games and five nights. You're going against some of the 170 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 1: world's best players, especially at shooting guard, and you couldn't 171 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: warm up your body it. You know, when I was 172 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: watching and Phil yesterday, and it was riveting because it 173 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: was for us old guys. And I'm sure he doesn't 174 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: want to hear that, because fifty year not old. Fifty 175 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: five you're not old. You know. I'm a semi semi 176 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: pro professional mountain biker and I don't consider myself old. 177 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: But it was one like for us. As much time 178 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: Phil puts into its craft as I put into my 179 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,959 Speaker 1: craft to get that feeling back, I keep telling me 180 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: about winning is like a drug. You know, once you've 181 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: had a little bit of success, you wanted all the time. 182 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: And Phil was in that moment for those four days. 183 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 1: He had that feeling. I kind of equate what he 184 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: did yesterday and people are gonna be like, what are 185 00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: you doing? That's crazy. When Kobe had the sixty points 186 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: his last game at thirty eight, it was equivalent to 187 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:13,079 Speaker 1: what I saw yesterday because you looked in Kobe's eyes 188 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 1: and he had that nineteen year old Kobe Bryant look. 189 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: Phil had that twenty five year old look in his eyes. 190 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 1: On each hole. Were there some blunders, absolutely, that's golfing, 191 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: but he had that lock that we were accustomed to seeing. 192 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: And I think the fans, first of all, how great 193 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: is it to have fans back at sporty events. It 194 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 1: was fabulous to hear all the comments that were being 195 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: shouted his way. It was just cool to watch. So 196 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: when Kobe was getting that sixty, that because we knew 197 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 1: we were never going to see it again. Phil's going 198 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 1: to continue to play golfing events and tournaments and being majors, 199 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,559 Speaker 1: but I don't know if he'll ever recapture that look, 200 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: that walk. It was just very cool to see. But 201 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: do you consider Tom Brady old? Do you consider Lebron 202 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: James old? I would say I would say Tom Brady 203 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: is old for his sport and what he's doing at 204 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: forty three to be a top level Super Bowl winning 205 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: contributing quarterback at at forty three, Yeah, that's old. Because 206 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 1: look at Peyton Manny when he won his last championship 207 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 1: in Denver. The defense won that championship that Super Bowl. 208 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 1: Peyton was more of a managing quarterback, so we'd be wrong. 209 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: It was great, But the defense and mister Miller won 210 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,439 Speaker 1: that champion that Super Bowl. Tom Brady was making plays. 211 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: He was making plays to win that Super Bowl this 212 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: time out. So yeah, he's old for a suit for 213 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: a super Bowl winning quarterback. But because of science and 214 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: technology and all these recovery tools, nowadays, guys can play longer. 215 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: That's just how it is. But why is it that 216 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 1: guys in your eric could play eighty two games and 217 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: guys nowadays can't. I'm not saying that they can't, they won't. 218 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: I think they're looking at the big picture because I 219 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: think more guys want to be fresher and have more 220 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: in the tank come playoff time, whereas guys in my 221 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 1: era it was all about just competing, going out and 222 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: and playing. Um, I will say this, I was a 223 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: little I shouldn't say disappointed. I was shocked and listening 224 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 1: to Rudy Gobert's comments post game, he was a little 225 00:13:55,679 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: shocked that Donovan Mitchell wasn't playing yesterday. Because I always 226 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: felt me AT is better than a lot of people 227 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: at one hundred percent. That's how I always approached it. 228 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: So if I was a little banged up, nick I 229 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: had a tweaked ankle, I was going to give it 230 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: a go, because sometimes you can be a decoy and 231 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: the defense is going to be shifted towards you. This 232 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: is when you get an opportunity to get other guys involved. 233 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: I would have loved to have seen Donovan Mitchell out 234 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: there at now. I'm sure he's gonna come back and 235 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 1: play wins. If he doesn't play Wednesday, then we know 236 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: it's much more serious. But if he can play Wednesday, 237 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: he could have played last night. That's how I look 238 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: at it. Give me the team that has already lost 239 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: in the first round that should be nervous that maybe 240 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: this isn't an aberration, that maybe this could be a pattern. 241 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: I always say this in semi game series, the best 242 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 1: team usually rises to the top, cream rises and you'll 243 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: win the series. But I will say the Portland Denver series, 244 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: Portland on paper is a top four team. They just 245 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: didn't play like it all year, and they had injuries 246 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: and Damian Lillard had to carry this team while Nurkie 247 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: and McCollum recovered from injuries early in the season. They 248 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: kind of found their way down the stretch. That's always 249 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: been a scary matchup because Lillard is a Pucket geter 250 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: and Camaro playing his old team, and you know, we've 251 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: heard the booze and some of the comments coming out 252 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: of there. They have a lot to prove. And with 253 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: Jamal Murray missing from Denver, it's just scary for Michael 254 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: Malone than the Nuggets. I'm not saying they can't win 255 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: that series. Yokich has been great, probably will win the MVP. 256 00:15:56,200 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: But I kind of like Portland in that series. Yeah, 257 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: do too. You know, I look at the Clippers, you 258 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: know they they wanted this matchup. Yeah, And now, I mean, 259 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: if there's a lot of pressure here on Kawhi Leonard, 260 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: remember when Kawhi and Lebron and who do you want? 261 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: And Kauai is a better player, And I went, you 262 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: guys are full and you have no idea what you're 263 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 1: talking about. Nobody's talked about Kauai is one of the 264 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: great players in the game. It's like, oh, yeah, Kawhi, 265 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: this is his time, playoff time, this is what you're 266 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: supposed to do. And then you lose it home to Dallas. 267 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 1: All right, one game, but they don't know how to 268 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: stop Luca here. I thought that Dallas would have beaten 269 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: them in the bubble last year. You know, Porzingis got 270 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: tossed and Luca got hurt. You know, they targeted his 271 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: ankle there. I thought that they were going to beat 272 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: him last year. But any concerns with the Clippers, there's 273 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: always concerns with the Clippers because you feel that they 274 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: have that Clipper curse, and you know, he's given him 275 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: his nickname, playoff Pe And the first half he was 276 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: not existent and Paul George he came alive a little 277 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: bit in the second half. Look, they'll always be pressure 278 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: on the Clippers because they're crosstown rivals, are the Lakers, 279 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: and they have all the championships. But you go out 280 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: and you get Kauai, you get PG, you go out 281 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: and get Serge Ibaka. I mean, this is a team 282 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: you and I have talked about this. I thought the 283 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 1: Lakers and the Clippers were always the two best teams 284 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 1: in the West, but right now both of them don't 285 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 1: look like it. And is there a lot of pressure 286 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: on Kawai absolutely winning two championships, one in Toronto one 287 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: in San Antonio. But I think they are a team 288 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: that aren't afraid to go on the road and win 289 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 1: ball games. I think they'll win Game two, but I 290 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: think they will go into Texas and get another one. 291 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: I think it's a long series, but I still feel 292 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: that they have They have too many players that can 293 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 1: guard Luca don Chich when it matters, Kawhi, Paul George, 294 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 1: Patrick Beverley, so they have guys that can can play 295 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 1: him and kind of limit him. I'm just lurried for 296 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,959 Speaker 1: Dallas if those guys could continue to shoot like that, 297 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: because all it takes is one hard hit to Porzingis 298 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 1: and he's going to be out. You know, I don't 299 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: have a lot of faith in Porzingis because he's he's 300 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: always getting hurt during games, and I don't know if 301 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 1: Hardaway can continue to shoot like that, Jalen Brunson can 302 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,199 Speaker 1: continue to shoot like that to win four games. I 303 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: know Luca can, I'm not. I don't my faith that's 304 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: not in the rest of those guys on that Dallas team. 305 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 1: I'm talking to Reggie Miller, the Hall of Famer that 306 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: brings us to the Lakers. I'm not surprised they lost 307 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: the opener to the Phoenix sunt but it's how they lose. 308 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. Anthony Davis just was kind of nondescript, 309 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: and I don't know he could be, you know, more 310 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 1: banged up than we know. But the rest of the team. 311 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: That's where the rest of the team helps when somebody 312 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: is not What concerns do you have with the Lakers 313 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: that Lebron and a D are going to have to 314 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 1: play near perfect for them to be back to back championships. 315 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: I think in the bubble, where you played in one 316 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 1: or two venues, there was no travel, I think you 317 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 1: could get away with that. Now that you've got to 318 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: go into other people's arenas. I think Lebron and a D, 319 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 1: especially ad a D is going to show why he's 320 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,400 Speaker 1: one of the top ten players in the NBA. He 321 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:40,440 Speaker 1: has the talent, he has the skill, and with Phoenix 322 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: being an undersized team, he should be dominating. And we 323 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 1: kind of got a glimpse of this when they played 324 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: Golden State and escaped. Let's face it, Golden State should 325 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: have beaten the Lakers in that seven eight matchup, but 326 00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: Golden State they just couldn't. You know, bals, that's not 327 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 1: in their DNA, and they kept turning the ball over. 328 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: And they're a one man band with Steph, So I'm 329 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 1: not surprised. I'm more surprised that Ad has not taken 330 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: it upon himself because he played terrible in Golden State 331 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: and he played terrible last night with an undersized Phoenix team. 332 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,439 Speaker 1: He should be dominating and he's not. And it just 333 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 1: goes to show you the then margin. If they're not healthy, 334 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 1: which clearly it looks like they are not, they're very 335 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: vulnerable to being sent home. And I know they're the favorites. 336 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 1: I know they're the champs, but right now they are 337 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: not right. Trey Young of the Hawks hit the game 338 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: winner in the Garden and had this to say after 339 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: the Hawks beat the Knicks. I think it was I mean, 340 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: you know, you've you've been in the biggest stages, I 341 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: mean when you're I mean in his own and everybody's 342 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: champ you. I don't know if any of y'all had that, 343 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 1: but I've had it. A cod had it in college, 344 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 1: and I had again at night. So I mean it 345 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,120 Speaker 1: got real quiet to end, and for me, I wanted 346 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 1: to hear those a few chance again. Well you've heard it, 347 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: You've you've heard those comments before at the garden, haven't 348 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 1: you read? There is nothing better, mister Tray, then having 349 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 1: listening to a rat peon cotton in there. It is 350 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:23,719 Speaker 1: so quiet, you can hear it. You can hear it. Look, 351 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: that's gonna be a great series because when it shifts 352 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: to Atlanta. See, Atlanta has never really had a true 353 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,199 Speaker 1: home court because everyone travels and lives in Atlanta now, 354 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 1: so there'll be a very pro Knicks crowd in Atlanta. 355 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 1: And I know Spike is going to travel there. You 356 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 1: went to Moorehousing, Uh, so you know Spike is going 357 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: to be in the building. So the Knicks can win 358 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: on the road. I think that goes seven games. But 359 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: we are seeing some of our young stars in their 360 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: first playoff, like come of age, Trey Young. We saw 361 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:02,119 Speaker 1: John Moran, Dylan and Brooks. I mean, this is fun 362 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: to watch the next generation play at a high level 363 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: in the playoffs with all the money on the table 364 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: and look fantastic doing it. But if you're Trey Young, 365 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,159 Speaker 1: do you invite this now? Because you always played to 366 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 1: the crowd in the garden, you weren't afraid of that, 367 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: but you were a veteran. You know. He's young, I 368 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 1: mean truly young, at what twenty years of age? But 369 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 1: the only I say yes, and the reason why I 370 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: say yes is because he has the type of game 371 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: that can shut people up. He can knock it down 372 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: from thirty five. He's always going to have the ball 373 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: in his hands. He's a playmaker. I wanted that, but 374 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: I didn't have the type of game where I could 375 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: control the game ninety percent of the time because I 376 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 1: was handling the ball. I had to receive the ball 377 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 1: from Mark and Hay would work Ben and Vern Fleming 378 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: and guys like that. So mister Trey Young, bring it 379 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 1: on his shoulders. Look broad. It's only gonna get worse 380 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 1: from here on out. Because I remember the big play, 381 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 1: the eight points in nine seconds, and afterwards the Knicks chokes, 382 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,919 Speaker 1: John starts jokes. I was saying all this, and I 383 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: got we got hammered in game two, and I just 384 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: remember Larry Brown just giving me the Riot Act because 385 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: of that. So it's gonna be a lot worse this 386 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: morning when he's reading the papers and he's saying all 387 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: that the Knits are gonna come after him in game two, 388 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,239 Speaker 1: so he's gonna have to be ready. But what did 389 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: Spike Lee actually say to you during games? It started 390 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: with him and the Sheryl chance and Cheryl was better, 391 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: and that's kind of that's kind of what started it. 392 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 1: And then he got it was true though, like what 393 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: he was saying was true. It was true a lean. 394 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 1: I didn't even hear it from that little troll over there, 395 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: so he would just yell out, Cheryl, Yeah, He's like 396 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: put a wig on Joel Miller's Joe Miller's out here 397 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 1: playing with them. I'm like, I was like, is he 398 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 1: really saying is he really saying this? I was like, Okay, 399 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: if you're gonna talk, you're gonna pay all this money 400 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: for these expensive seats, You're gonna be part of the game. Spike, 401 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: and I made him part of the game. If you're 402 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: Trey Young, do you say anything to Spike Lee? You 403 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 1: have to, though Spike is up there dancing and you know, 404 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 1: moon walking on the sidelines when the Knicks are going 405 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: on runs. You have to. Kobe went through the same thing, MJ. 406 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 1: I love Spike. That is Spike's job. He is the 407 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: number one Knicks fan, and I will go to my 408 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: grave saying I admire him because there should be more 409 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: people that a rider die like Spike Lee. But it's 410 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: sounding good to give him a little bit, So Trey, 411 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,479 Speaker 1: next time you knocked out, Trey, come look over there 412 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,159 Speaker 1: a little bit out of Yeah. I would just do 413 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:08,399 Speaker 1: a drive by and just say you thought Reggie Miller 414 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: was it was a nemesis. That's yes, just because this 415 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 1: mine was a short window. Mine started in ninety three, 416 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 1: ninety four and went to about two thousand. You know 417 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: that was only a seven to eight year window. Trey 418 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: Young could have a ten to twelve year window of 419 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:32,880 Speaker 1: tormenting tormenting the Knicks. I say go for it. Redge 420 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 1: was on the call Grizzlies Jazz last night. Tonight it's 421 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: the heat in the box.

You know, I'm going with Phil because 448 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 1: you know out game de Mom's it's an individudividual sport. Okay, 449 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: So so it's tennis, um, but you know, we have 450 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 1: to deal with so much Tennancy is a reaction sport, 451 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: isn't that you somebody whack the ball at you and 452 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: you leap around and get it. But golf you've got 453 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: to stand and think about it, and for a long 454 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 1: time you're you're doing You're on the golf course of 455 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: five plus hours and it's all that thinking time and 456 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: to deal with, you know, um, the negativity or you know, 457 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 1: anything from negativity, frustrations to loss of trust or whatever. 458 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: That's that's what I think is so impressive with this. 459 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: You know, when you get older, you look, you definitely 460 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 1: lose your earth fields had to fight that in different 461 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 1: ways and this has been a really long process. Is 462 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:50,919 Speaker 1: this he didn't fix this in the last three weeks 463 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,119 Speaker 1: or have this dream I'm going to win. This has 464 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 1: probably been a three year project, you know, to get 465 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: himself physically strong enough. It's enough, you know, the dietary side, 466 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: all that sort of thing. But then this mental strength 467 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: is for me the most interesting one. I mean, we 468 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 1: sat together at Augusta Champions locker room and you know, 469 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 1: he asked me, how do you able to concentrate? And 470 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 1: I said, well, I was fine, I said, because you 471 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 1: know I had you know, I had purpose in every shot, 472 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:20,640 Speaker 1: even as even in practice I had purpose probably came 473 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 1: from when I was a kid, because I you know, 474 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: when I started playing golf, I only had one green, 475 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: one bungle, of one flex. I was constantly aiming at something. 476 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: So every shot had purpose that happened accidentally or naturally. 477 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,239 Speaker 1: So you know, I think maybe gleaned a little bit 478 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: from miss and he went into this new mode of 479 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: being able to really focus and have clear intentions, one 480 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: hundred percent commitment. But more importantly, he dealt with the 481 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: couple of those bad shots on Saturday really well, you know, 482 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: the two paws on you know, there was a twelve 483 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: and thirteen with the tea couple of little blocks, but 484 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: he had a couple of great irons. You know, fourteen 485 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: and seventeen on Saturday comes out they first green. How 486 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: about that leaves the first part fifteen feet short? And 487 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 1: you think, wow, that makes sense. You're fifty, the nerves 488 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: are going to get a bit jangled. And no, he 489 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: had this. You could see the way he was completely 490 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: in the zone. Whether that was probably manufactured in some ways. 491 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: You had to push himself to think, think through the process. 492 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 1: I can relate to that. That's what happened to me 493 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: in ninety six. It was, you know, it was best 494 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 1: my best mental round because I wasn't as super confident 495 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:36,239 Speaker 1: as early nineties, and you have to mentally, Okay, here 496 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 1: we go. What am I trying? What I want to do? 497 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 1: Am I going to do it? How's it going to 498 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: feel that I do all your check go through the 499 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: checklist where before it happened like that kind of thing. 500 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: So I think that's why putting all of that together, 501 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: this really is and off the charts incredible performance. What's 502 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 1: the first thing to leave you though as you get 503 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 1: older as a golfer, Yeah, well I guess it will 504 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: be some say touch. I would say it's trust or 505 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: self belief, whatever that might. You know, and and that 506 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: gets dented. I don't know what the percentage would be. 507 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: But obviously when you face shots what you saw last 508 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 1: week with incredible demand and you can see all the 509 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: hazards everywhere, you know, don't well, if I pull it 510 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: into that bunk and I go in the hey, I 511 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: am in trouble. So that, I think, is what goes 512 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: You look down at golf pool and you're like, I 513 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: don't like the look at that one. I don't look 514 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: at that shot, and you don't know, and you try 515 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: to deal with it and you can't. And so if 516 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: you've gone into a shot thinking I don't like this 517 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: is a bit of negativity and then it comes off 518 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: negative gets what It's almost like a tick in the 519 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: negative box, isn't it, where if you can you face 520 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: that challenge, you look down, I don't like that, Like, 521 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: h this is a really difficult shot. But I can 522 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: move my target to yeah, that will do me. And 523 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: I can do this, and I can do that. So 524 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 1: you've walked his way through it and then you stand 525 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: up and do it. Well, then you've dealt with the 526 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: situation and that's what you know. That's what pressure is 527 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: all about, isn't it. Is when you're when you're when 528 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: the level of the intensity or the situation you're not 529 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 1: prepared for it, that's pressure. But if you know how to, 530 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: you have prepared and you know how to handle the situation, 531 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: that's how you get you deal with pressure. Why do 532 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: you think fills the people's champion? Well, he gives, he 533 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: gives back. It gives good entertainment. You know he's not 534 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: he it's a full on entertainment. Now look at the 535 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 1: you know he's social media or you know, he loves 536 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 1: to entertain and he comes up with his own words. 537 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 1: Now what have your first man to call a set 538 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: a chip shot sexy? You know, so things like that. So, 539 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: but you didn't play that way. You you were pretty focused. 540 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 1: Like could you have engaged played to the crowd at all? 541 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: I would have. I would have loved it because I 542 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 1: I believed, um, get into your beliefs, isn't and where 543 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: you where you come from and how you taught you know, 544 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: I believe to stay focused and play within myself and 545 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 1: you know, and I had to do that and I 546 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: kind of kicked myself because as you can tell, I've 547 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: got a bit more personality than what I probably displayed 548 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 1: on the golf course that my very good friends sports psychologists, 549 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 1: I could have taught you to switch in and out. 550 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: You could have switched off and gone and reacted with 551 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: the crowds, stolen the kid's bag of chips or something, 552 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: you know, something silly, come back to the bag and 553 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 1: then go. As soon as you grab put your hand 554 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: on the driver ahead or something, you can go back 555 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 1: into golf. So I kind of wish I'd known that 556 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: a lot earlier, but I didn't. But you know, Phil 557 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: stayed in golfing mode that whole weekend and probably the 558 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: whole week but obviously very evident of the weekend. How 559 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 1: you know, some psychologists were so you've got to wander 560 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 1: off and dream of the purple monkey and all this 561 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 1: sort of thing. But no, he walked and it was 562 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 1: completely engrossed in what he was doing and staying and 563 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: controlling himself. And I'm sure his heart was leaping out 564 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: his chest at times, but you know he didn't. And 565 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: you know he played great. Yes, he hit some really 566 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: great shots, some unsund great shots. That hit a five 567 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: ye apple rough at the nights. I mean that was 568 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: a seriously good gold shot. You know that won't get 569 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 1: talked about. But for me, when I saw that, you know, 570 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 1: landed at twenty feet, I was like, wow, you know 571 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: that was very impressive. Are two shots down ten? Very impressive? 572 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: And to have all of and to have all of 573 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: that that incredible. That atmosphere between all those exchanges, you know, 574 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: we'd never known anything like internet. They'd five exchanges of 575 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: two shots and more three shots on the second. That's 576 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 1: we get one of those a weekend in the tournment, 577 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: we will go or maybe there's a two shots with 578 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:52,719 Speaker 1: you and it doesn't happen, but have five of them 579 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: and ten holes. That was I thought that was riveting stuff, 580 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't it? I thought you couldn't gold for or moon 581 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 1: gold for. That was that was worth watching. More impressive though, 582 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: Tiger in twenty nineteen yet Augusta or Phil this weekend. Yeah, 583 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: well Tiger is another amazing you know, Tiger in eleven 584 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: years and all the surgeries and all that sort of thing. 585 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 1: Um and and yes, of course Tiger's number one, number one, 586 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: your choice, Jack or Tiger. Who's who's the greatest? So 587 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 1: you know, I think the Tiger comeback was greater than 588 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: this Phil one. But you know, this is incredible It's like, 589 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 1: it's why you have these shows. You can sit and 590 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:38,919 Speaker 1: argue for hours with it was one, two or three, 591 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: but still doesn't act, look or play like he's fifty neck. No, 592 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: well that's he that's credit to him. Yes, commitment, but unbelievable, 593 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: but unbelievable commitment. You've got to give him credit for that. 594 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: He's changed. I spoke to him at the Masters in November, 595 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 1: and because I went straight to so you know, how 596 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 1: do I get more club ed speed? Because he's done 597 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: a great job, very few you know it, you get older, 598 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: the club goes slower, doesn't it. But he suddenly comes 599 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: out with six miles an hour more clubbers and where 600 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 1: six threes or eighteen that's how we work at six 601 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: you know mile and avute three yards at eighteen more yards? 602 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: Twenty more yards? And I said, like a rookie, how 603 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 1: do I get more close? It weren't. He went from 604 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 1: starts with the mind. You've got to train the mind 605 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: to get tailor body to move faster. And you know, okay, 606 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 1: so take and then you go to the gym and 607 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 1: you start working specific exercises, you know, to get the 608 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: power in the body in the right place. The explosion. 609 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: So you go through all these different posts before you 610 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: start swinging speed sticks and things that act to get 611 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: the club. You know, otherways you'd tear your shoulders or something. 612 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: So it wasn't a that was not a five minute process. 613 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 1: You know, that was months of training to to build 614 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,280 Speaker 1: up to get to that. And you know the dietaries. 615 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: He doesn't crazy diet things. You know when he goes 616 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: on whatever he goes on, you know, his fruit diet 617 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 1: for a week or so up before the open a 618 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,880 Speaker 1: couple of years. But anyway, it's commitment, incredible commitments. You 619 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 1: can't you cannot not that in any way. I thought 620 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 1: what Brooks Kepco was attempting to do was equally impressive. Yeah. 621 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: I mean Nicky had a dislocated knee, he had ligament damage, 622 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 1: he had surgery in March. Yeah. I mean he's on 623 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 1: one leg at Augusta. Yeah. But for him to be 624 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: out there in the final group, I mean again, I 625 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: did mention if Phil was the weekend goes, it is 626 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,760 Speaker 1: a mental game. Phil's looking mentally looking after his actual 627 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:36,799 Speaker 1: mind and his technique, and Brooks his mind was looking 628 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: after his body. I gleaned that his team unbelievably concerned, 629 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,720 Speaker 1: as he even said when you got five people watching 630 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: New Trade and watching his knees, but he said he 631 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 1: was taped up, he was on playing killers, all sorts 632 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 1: of things like that. But they just wanted to get 633 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: him to Monday. You know that he knew. Actually the 634 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: hardest thing apparently was you know, walking from green to 635 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,840 Speaker 1: teeth through all the different sand areas of the wood planks. 636 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,280 Speaker 1: Now that he was really concerned at one little slip, 637 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,799 Speaker 1: and he was even concerned apparently even playing off uneven nights, 638 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: you know, even one knee up, one knee down, So 639 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 1: you know that was a that was a huge mental 640 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 1: effort on him and just making it just coming out 641 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 1: and driving it poorly for that front night. And if 642 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,279 Speaker 1: he hit a decent t shot on number two after 643 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: bird Birdie and one might have been a very different 644 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: shoot about it, wasn't it. You know, he faulted. He 645 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 1: really struggled to get the ball on the failey until 646 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: he finally found a couple at the end so that 647 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:41,800 Speaker 1: the Phil got the upper you know, I need to 648 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,880 Speaker 1: get the upper hand. But also you look at the 649 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 1: par fives, that was the difference. Phil was three under 650 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 1: and Brooks was three over three. Yeah, brutal, Yeah, brutal yea. 651 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 1: So he pulls the T shirt on two clatters in 652 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 1: the tree is probably fortunate he didn't go in a 653 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 1: hazard or and then I don't know why I called 654 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 1: it on there, I said, I don't know why he 655 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 1: tried to hit three would on a left or right 656 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 1: wind on seven and blocks it into those trees. You know, 657 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: if that would have been for me sensible knock it 658 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 1: down front edge or rather eighty yards sixty eight yards 659 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 1: pitched in that, it would have been a different story. 660 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: So and again. And then then he was struggling off 661 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 1: the team through down eleven ten and eleven cost him 662 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 1: a couple there. So yeah, he phil played beautifully. You know, 663 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: he thought about every shot, committed everything. Short game was amazing, 664 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 1: didn't really miss a put that really was going to 665 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 1: be like, wow, he's in trouble. So it was excellent stuff. 666 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 1: What would you have shot on that course yesterday? I'll 667 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 1: still be finishing it. He's still out. No, It's like 668 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: they run the marathon and then there's the guy who 669 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 1: has taken eight hours to run the marriage. He comes 670 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 1: in the next morning. No, I would I would hate 671 00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 1: I would hate to think on that wind um, No, 672 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: I would be I'd be lucky to break eighty. I 673 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,719 Speaker 1: really would, I really would. I think I actually might 674 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 1: take I would take a seventy eight right now, sitting here, 675 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:19,239 Speaker 1: right now. What's the biggest number you ever had on 676 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:25,240 Speaker 1: a hole? I think I think I had a ten once, 677 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 1: I think, but you kind of delete that from your mind. 678 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 1: So I'm going with one. If I'm being really honest, 679 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 1: I think it's once. But I'd probably tell everybody, no, 680 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:35,879 Speaker 1: nine was my worst. What's that like? Though? When you're 681 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 1: writing down at ten, it's it's It's numbing, isn't it? 682 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:45,799 Speaker 1: Because you think I can tell you how I feel 683 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 1: when I writ yeah, yeah, yeah, when you got you 684 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 1: got three on the car, but yeah, when you do 685 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 1: it for the first time. And so I used to 686 00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:57,879 Speaker 1: play with Simon Hobby and you know he need took 687 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: a ten on one hole and he goes, Okay, Simon, Simon, 688 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: he's a relax you know, counter ten good idea to 689 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,319 Speaker 1: silent counter ten. It's a wonder three, four, five, six, 690 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 1: and eighty nine.
