  • 0:00 | WANTED TO ASK WAS

  • 0:03 | JT WAS ABOUT
  • 0:05 | JORDAN SPIETH.
  • 0:08 | HE MISSES THE CUT
  • 0:09 | AT THE PLAYERS,
  • 0:10 | MISSES THE CUT AT
  • 0:11 | THEN TIED FOR 30th
  • 0:15 | AT THE API AND
  • 0:16 | HIS OVERALL STATS

  • 0:26 | CLOSE.
  • 0:27 | HOW CONCERNED ARE
  • 0:28 | YOU WITH JORDAN
  • 0:31 | SPIETH AS WE GO
  • 0:32 | TOWARDS THE FIRST
  • 0:33 | MAJOR EVENT?
  • 0:35 | >> I DON’T THINK
  • 0:36 | WE HAVE A GREAT
  • 0:37 | GAUGE ON WHERE HIS
  • 0:39 | CURRENT GAME IS.
  • 0:40 | THE YEAR STARTED
  • 0:42 | AUSPICIOUSLY. I
  • 0:45 | REASONABLE TO
  • 0:46 | ASSUME THAT HE
  • 0:47 | MIGHT BE TURNING A
  • 0:48 | CORNER, IN HIS
  • 0:51 | WORDS IT HAS BEEN
  • 0:53 | A REALLY WEIRD
  • 0:54 | YEAR.
  • 0:55 | HE HAD THE FLU, HE
  • 0:59 | HAS BEEN DISTRACTED
  • 1:00 | WITH SOME OF THE
  • 1:03 | POLICY BOARD
  • 1:04 | BEEN GOING ON.
  • 1:07 | HE HAS NOT BEEN —
  • 1:11 | IN OTHER WORDS.
  • 1:12 | HE HAS BEEN GOOD
  • 1:15 | THAT EPITOMIZES
  • 1:16 | WHAT HE HAS BEEN
  • 1:18 | GOOD BUT NOT GREAT
  • 1:21 | HE HAS NOT HAD TWO
  • 1:23 | WEDNESDAYS 20 17th
  • 1:25 | TO YOUR POINT THE
  • 1:27 | RESULTS AND THE
  • 1:29 | STATS ARE NOT
  • 1:31 | MATCHING UP.
  • 1:36 | >> YOU COULD SAY
  • 1:37 | HE WAS DOMINANT
  • 1:38 | PLAYER IN 2015
  • 1:39 | WHEN HE HAD FIVE
  • 1:41 | WINS AND TWO
  • 1:42 | MAJORS.
  • 1:43 | JUSTIN THOMAS WAS
  • 1:44 | ASKED IS THE GAME
  • 1:45 | OF GOLF BETTER
  • 1:47 | WHEN THERE IS A
  • 1:48 | DOMINANT PLAYER?
  • 1:50 | >> IS GOLF BETTER
  • 1:52 | OFF WITH A
  • 1:55 | DOMINANT PLAYER?
  • 1:58 | OR IS IT BETTER
  • 2:00 | WITH THIS GROUP?
  • 2:04 | >> THAT IS A GOOD
  • 2:05 | QUESTION. I HAVE
  • 2:06 | THOUGHT ABOUT IT.
  • 2:08 | IT IS PROBABLY NOT
  • 2:09 | FAIR TO SAY BUT I
  • 2:14 | THINK IT IS.
  • 2:16 | I KNOW THAT IS
  • 2:17 | ANYBODY IS GOING
  • 2:19 | TO WATCH. YOU
  • 2:21 | SHOULD NOT COMPARE
  • 2:22 | OR USE TIGER,
  • 2:23 | ANYONE WILL WATCH
  • 2:26 | RORY OR CAMERON
  • 2:27 | JORDAN JUST
  • 2:28 | BECAUSE YOU DON’T
  • 2:29 | KNOW THE FUN.
  • 2:31 | JORDAN MIGHT BE
  • 2:32 | LEADING BY SIX
  • 2:34 | THAT HE IS GOING
  • 2:35 | TO HAVE A
  • 2:36 | CONVERSATION ON 16
  • 2:38 | ON HOW HE FEELS
  • 2:39 | LIKE HE CAN SLICE
  • 2:40 | THIS ONTO THE
  • 2:43 | GREEN WILL IT WILL
  • 2:44 | NOT GAIN HIM
  • 2:45 | ANYTHING MAYBE HE
  • 2:48 | PULLS IT OFF AND
  • 2:49 | THERE IS THE
  • 2:50 | EXCITEMENT FACTOR
  • 2:51 | VERSUS OTHERS.
  • 2:53 | I THINK IT IS
  • 2:54 | BETTER.
  • 2:56 | MOTIVATING FOR ME
  • 2:58 | BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE
  • 2:59 | THERE ARE A LOT OF
  • 3:01 | GUYS THAT I AM
  • 3:04 | JEALOUS OF, TO BE
  • 3:05 | WELL THEY ARE
  • 3:06 | PLAYING AND HOW
  • 3:08 | THAT PUSHES ME TO
  • 3:09 | WANT TO DO THE
  • 3:10 | SAME.
  • 3:11 | I GUESS IT JUST
  • 3:12 | KIND OF DEPENDS ON
  • 3:13 | WHO YOU ASK.
  • 3:14 | >> DOES THE MEN’S
  • 3:18 | SIDE NEED A
  • 3:19 | DOMINANT PLAYER?
  • 3:21 | >> I AGREE WITH JT.
  • 3:27 | I CELEBRATE THAT
  • 3:28 | REFRESHING
  • 3:29 | THAT NUMBER ONE IS
  • 3:30 | WHETHER THEY ARE
  • 3:31 | DOMINANT OR NOT.
  • 3:32 | I THINK OUR FRIEND
  • 3:34 | DID HIMSELF A
  • 3:35 | FAVOR TRYING TO
  • 3:36 | KEEP TIGER OUT OF
  • 3:37 | WHEN YOU LOOK AT
  • 3:38 | TIGER WHEN HE
  • 3:39 | RAINED NOT ONLY
  • 3:41 | DID HE DELIVER ON
  • 3:42 | ALL OF THAT PROMISE
  • 3:44 | , BUT HE ALSO
  • 3:45 | CROSSED ALL THE
  • 3:46 | EVERY SPORT EVENT
  • 3:48 | TO CELEBRITY DID
  • 3:50 | EVERYONE IS GOING
  • 3:51 | TO GRAVITATE
  • 3:52 | I LOVE WHAT HE
  • 3:54 | SAID ABOUT JORDAN
  • 3:55 | SPIETH, HE SAID
  • 3:57 | LAST NIGHT,
  • 3:58 | SPIETH ON FRIDAY
  • 4:00 | AT THE VALSPAR
  • 4:01 | CHAMPIONSHIP, WE
  • 4:02 | DO NOT HAVE OUR
  • 4:03 | VERSION OF THE
  • 4:04 | MANNING CAST, I
  • 4:06 | WOULD LOVE TO SEE
  • 4:07 | OUR VERSION OF THE
  • 4:08 | JORDAN CAST IT
  • 4:10 | ENTERTAINING
  • 4:11 | SHOOTING 76 OR 66.
  • 4:12 | YOU HAVE TO LOOK
  • 4:14 | I FIND SCOTTIE
  • 4:16 | SCHEFFLER THE
  • 4:18 | NUMBER ONE TO BE
  • 4:19 | VERY ENTERTAINING
  • 4:20 | BECAUSE OF THE WAY
  • 4:21 | HE PLAYS AND HOW
  • 4:22 | DOMINANT HE CAN BE.
  • 4:24 | LOOK AT WHAT HE
  • 4:25 | DID AT BAYHILL,
  • 4:26 | CHAMPIONSHIP,
  • 4:27 | CLEARLY NOT HIS
  • 4:29 | OF COURSE IT
  • 4:30 | MATTERS BUT I
  • 4:31 | THINK RIGHT NOW
  • 4:32 | THE STARS THAT YOU
  • 4:33 | HAVE AND THAT IN
  • 4:34 | VERSE THEY CAN ALL
  • 4:36 | SUB IN AND OUT AND
  • 4:37 | ENTERTAINING.
  • 4:39 | >> YOU JUST HEARD
  • 4:43 | REX SAY HE FINDS
  • 4:44 | ENTERTAINING THAT
  • 4:46 | SAYING HE FINDS
  • 4:47 | IS IT TRUE, HOW DO
  • 4:49 | YOU DEFINE A
  • 4:52 | DOMINATING PLAYER?
  • 4:54 | IS IT TOO SOON TO
  • 4:55 | PLACE A CROWN UPON
  • 4:57 | SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER?
  • 4:59 | >> BASED ON THE
  • 5:00 | PLAY HE HAS HAD
  • 5:02 | THE PAST TWO OR
  • 5:03 | BEEN CONSISTENTLY
  • 5:04 | EXCELLENT. IT IS
  • 5:05 | HARD TO SAY HE HAS
  • 5:07 | BEEN DOMINANT.
  • 5:08 | I HAD, WHERE
  • 5:11 | SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER
  • 5:12 | OVER 50 ONE WEEK
  • 5:13 | WIN.
  • 5:16 | IT HAD BEEN VER
  • 5:17 | HAD WON AND THE
  • 5:19 | PGA TOUR. I THINK
  • 5:20 | IT IS AN
  • 5:21 | INTERESTING
  • 5:22 | I THINK JUSTIN
  • 5:23 | THOMAS IS RIGHT,
  • 5:24 | IT DOES DEPEND ON
  • 5:25 | WHO THE PLAYER IS.
  • 5:28 | I FEEL LIKE IT’S A
  • 5:30 | COPOUT BUT I THINK
  • 5:31 | IT MATTERS.
  • 5:33 | WHEN YOU ARE
  • 5:34 | FELT LIKE YOU’RE
  • 5:35 | HISTORIC GREAT
  • 5:36 | IT’S LIKE WATCHING
  • 5:37 | JORDAN. PEOPLE ARE
  • 5:38 | ATTRACTED TO RORY
  • 5:39 | BECAUSE OF HIS
  • 5:40 | CHARISMA AND
  • 5:41 | CONTROVERSY. I
  • 5:43 | THINK SCOTTY’S
  • 5:44 | APPEAL, WITHIN THE
  • 5:46 | SPORTS WORLD IS SO
  • 5:48 | DIFFERENT. IN
  • 5:52 | PERSON I THINK IT
  • 5:53 | EXPERIENCE THAN
  • 5:54 | GETTING ON TV.
  • 5:55 | IN PERSON I THINK
  • 5:56 | HE IS A TREAT TO
  • 5:57 | WATCH.
  • 5:58 | HIS SHOTMAKING
  • 5:59 | ABILITY IS OFF THE
  • 6:00 | KNOW IF THAT
  • 6:01 | TRANSLATES TO THE
  • 6:02 | TELEVISION.
  • 6:03 | HE IS ALSO HUMBLE,
  • 6:05 | HE IS UNDERSTATED,
  • 6:07 | HE IS GRACIOUS AND
  • 6:08 | GROUNDED. I THINK
  • 6:10 | THAT IS A BIT OF A
  • 6:12 | HARD SELL.
  • 6:13 | THERE IS A
  • 6:15 | SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER
  • 6:16 | AS WELL.
  • 6:18 | ROGER FEDERER WAS
  • 6:20 | THAT WAY GREAT HE
  • 6:22 | THE TENNIS COURT
  • 6:23 | WHILE ALSO BEING
  • 6:24 | MARKETABLE AND
  • 6:25 | EVEN SLEEP POPULAR
  • 6:26 | AMONG THE FANS.
  • 6:28 | THAT SEEMS TO BE
  • 6:29 | THE ROUTE THAT
  • 6:30 | SCOTTY IS GOING AS
  • 6:32 | OPPOSED TO
  • 6:33 | TRADITIONAL
  • 6:34 | THINK OF IN GOLF
  • 6:35 | WHETHER IT WAS
  • 6:36 | JACK OR TIGER.
  • 6:39 | >> THE ANSWER IS
  • 6:40 | YES, BUT IT NEEDS
  • 6:43 | TO BE A FOR A LONG
  • 6:44 | ROLL OF TIME.
  • 6:45 | JORDAN HAD THREE
  • 6:46 | RUN 15 THROUGH 17,
  • 6:47 | JT HAD A THREE-
  • 6:48 | YEAR RUN, THERE IS
  • 6:51 | COMPARED TO TIGER
  • 6:52 | WHO WAS 15 PLUS
  • 6:53 | YEARS BACK 2 PLUS
  • 6:55 | DECADES.
  • 6:56 | PEOPLE WANT TO SEE
  • 6:57 | THE YANKEES, THE
  • 6:59 | LAKERS, THE
  • 7:00 | THEY WANT TO SEE A
  • 7:01 | TEAM OR A PLAYER

    Good players get five years at their best. Great players get ten. Legends twenty.

    Scottie could be similar to Pete Sampras. Very similar personalities. Agassi was much more marketable during Pete's prime years.

    Question you should be asking is LIV golf better with so many dominate golfers…who also don't win every week?

    Golf is better when -9 wins. Nobody wants to watch pitch and putt -27 action.

    One "dominant" golfer?
    How about a dominant top ten?

    Golf is entertainment for those not playing. No song and dance on the 18th is required. I don't want to see a dominant player. I want to see an engaging contest, where many are "in it" in the fourth round. There will be drama without all the well practiced hype in the broadcast. The new guy, old guy, regular first pagers, all playing well. That's what I tune in for. I don't care who wins. They are all hard working, decent people as far as I know. If someone is a rotten bastard, I don't want to know about it. I will judge them by what I see on the course, even if they can't sing very well on the 18th.

    No golf needs to find a way to get top LIV players matched against top PGA players at least 10 times a year

    The PGA is showing some real depth. The last 2 events were fantastic!!

    Scheffler has been really good for a couple of years. He has been a really good putter for a couple of weeks. Give him some time to see what happens. If he ends being "the guy," it will be more like Nicklaus than Palmer or Woods.

    Let's be honest. The PGA Tour is boring ever since TW stopped playing a full schedule. You may not like what I am saying but it's the truth. People who were not into golf would tune in to see TW. He was a character not only the best player ever. Your asking people to tune in to see Scottie Scheffler? Really? Lmao. Scottie is a really good player but he is not TW. Enjoy the PGA Tour for what it is and not what you want it to be.

    What the PGA Tour ACTUALLY lost to LIV was a group of golf’s biggest arse-holes that a bevy of folks loved to cheer against…including Mickleson, cheat-man Reed and Koepka, to name a few.

    Golf, as a sport, does not. 40 IQ Tigod Simps and the PGA Tour Simp Channel might though.

    Sheffler is NOT a compelling player. Unfortunately he's somewhat boring to watch.

    Golf does not need a dominant player to be successful. It just needs time to recover from the Tiger ERA. Golf was basically like that before Tiger, and in his wake the golf world is looking for more Tiger. Getting off that crack pipe is gonna be hard, but if golf can survive it then it can succeed without a truly Tiger style dominant player
