00:00Keith Scottie Scheffler 17 under par for the tournament beating the field by four. He has

00:06won all four of the major titles now in his career by at least three shots. The first ever golfer to

00:11accomplish that with his first four major championship victories. Each and every week

00:17Keith we look at the numbers plus 450. Ah it's drastically short on this guy Scheffler once again

00:24and yet he often cashes that ticket especially on the most significant of stages. How would you

00:30describe Scottie Scheffler's dominance at the Open Championship? Well overall it was really

00:36impressive and I think it kind of goes back to Ben and Donnie. What we were talking about last week was

00:40Scheffler's press conference when he talked about not being fulfilled. I think for a lot of us we

00:46get confused what fulfilled and important means. Winning these championships is very important to

00:51Scottie. He works very hard and he tries his very very best and we see that his best is better than

00:56most. There's no doubt about that but being fulfilled well I think that that's more of a

01:00worrisome topic for the rest of the field because if if Scottie's not being fulfilled by all the

01:06winning that he's doing right now by all the strokes that he's gaining right now and he wants to get

01:10better and these wins are important to him then boy I tell you what the rest of the year when I come

01:15on here I can't imagine when Scottie's in the field that I'm going to bet any sort of mark

01:21that has Scheffler in it. Yeah he was certainly a runaway victor there at the Open Championship

01:26which is impressive as it can be his fourth major championship. Let me ask you this question too

01:30Keith like projecting the rest of his career which is so tough like we've seen great golfers come

01:35along win a couple majors like man it's been five or six seven years since he's won his last one

01:39getting to double digit majors is that in the cards for Scottie Scheffler for you? Oh boy okay so

01:46let's start with where we are and that is is that Rory won four majors in his first 25 major starts

01:52Scottie Scheffler has now won four majors in his first 25 major starts did we ever think Rory would

01:58wait another 11 years before he'd win a major now Scottie is a much different player and I would say

02:03at this point he has surpassed Brooks and Rory as sort of a generational golfer the next step for him

02:09the next level is Phil where he had like 50 plus tour wins and you had six majors so like if Scottie

02:15stays on the path he's on he definitely probably overtakes Phil and becomes a big part of that

02:20conversation of a top 10 golfer ever there's only three guys that have double digit wins in majors so

02:27yeah true the good the good the good side for Scottie is that he has no distractions he's not training

02:33with Navy SEALs or doing the crazy things that Tiger was right he's not living in the times of

02:38of Jack you know like so like again if you're the field you're looking at Scottie and you're saying

02:43these wins are really important to him he doesn't want to be a celebrity and he just wants to go out

02:48and keep winning and working hard for his family I mean to me Donnie he's the most likely subject

02:54of all of these guys Brooks DJ Rory etc to get the double digits but man if he got eight he'd have a

03:01truly fulfilled career
