00:00I was, I, the more that he spoke Rory McIlroy over the weekend, the more I moved over to
00:08your side on what an absolute dinky is.
00:10But, um, I, that, I, that tournament always, Wiggy, Mango, you guys can, uh, you guys
00:17can both go get a glass of water.
00:19Um, but, uh, always that tournament is excellent television.
00:24The, the, unfortunately the middle of yesterday was better than the ending of yesterday.
00:29Curtis, I felt like, I, I don't know whether I'm just a fraudulent golf fan, but like absent
00:36tiger absent, like, I don't know yesterday.
00:39I felt like Wiggy was right.
00:40Like I just Rory's not a guy I root for, but like the awkward pan to the like lunchroom
00:47in Northern Ireland with 15 people was like, do you remember when the Red Sox were obviously
00:52remember, but in Oh four, when the Red Sox finished their comeback of the Yankees, they kept showing
00:57bars in New York of Red Sox fans instead of showing bars in Boston.
01:03It was very odd, but the, uh, I think that they are trying to find a way to make Rory
01:09McIlroy likable.
01:11And I think going to the square peg round hole, go going to the golf club in Northern Ireland,
01:18where his dad worked three jobs, worked in the pro shop, worked, worked behind the bar so
01:24that Rory could, uh, have the opportunity to use the range and practice there.
01:29I think they think that's going to make him likable, but yeah.
01:31I mean, and, and Scheffler is the latest and greatest example of everybody's like, he's
01:35unstoppable.
01:36He's the new tiger.
01:37It's like, Nope, he's really great.
01:38He's going to be one of the great golfers.
01:40But like that, I don't know what I watch him.
01:44Does it seem like it really bothers him?
01:47If he doesn't, yeah.
01:48Like he's going to go grab some, you know, waffle house and go home and watch some cartoons.
01:53Like that's his night.
01:55Like, I don't know.
01:56Like when, when, when I would watch tiger and, and, and just fill and those guys, like
02:01it felt like there was legitimate rivalry and tension and drama with this.
02:04It's kind of a bunch of really rich guys hitting a white ball.
02:07The only guy that felt like it was kind of life or death for was Justin Rose and he fell
02:11apart on the back nine on Sunday.
02:13And that's who, that's who I ended up rooting for.
02:16I, when it was, when you felt like Rory may have been falling out of contention there
02:23and you had, uh, Rose and Scheffler and Cam Young and Hatton and, and those guys all
02:32with a shot at it.
02:33That to me was, that was the better part of yesterday.
02:35Yeah, it was, uh, it, Sunday lacked the drama that you wanted.
02:40It was great.
02:41Like there was, it was good for the first hour or two, uh, when those guys teed off and
02:45then it was just like, everybody just couldn't figure their crap out, especially in the back
02:49half of that tournament.
02:50And Rory McIlroy did, he didn't make any massive mistakes.
02:53And when he did, when he, on 18, absolutely blasts one into the woods.
