Simpson compares Scheffler dominance to Woods era

Webb Simpson hails the season Scottie Scheffler is having, saying it reminds him of Tiger Woods' early days.

Transcript

00:00 You mentioned Scottie a couple times.

00:01 I'm just curious on your perspective

00:03 as someone who's been doing this

00:05 for awhile now what he's done.

00:07 Really, even just this summer,

00:08 the way that he's kind of come out on the

00:10 really on the hardest courses and played

00:12 as well as he had and how hard that really is.

00:16 Yeah, it's it's probably what

00:17 happened the early days of a tiger.

00:19 You kind of get used to it,

00:21 so it becomes less of a big deal.

00:23 You know, it's almost like an afterthought.

00:25 Oh, Scottie won again this week.

00:27 Yeah, it's he's doing everything

00:30 exceptionally well and.

00:32 I think what people don't talk about

00:34 enough is like his attitude and the

00:37 way he thinks you know he he makes

00:39 less mistakes than everyone else.

00:42 He does what you would expect a

00:44 pro to do capitalizes on, you know,

00:46 wedge shots and par fives,

00:47 but he just doesn't really make mistakes,

00:48 and he's so hard to beat,

00:50 which is, you know,

00:52 probably makes Davis Riley's win at

00:54 Charles Schwab even that much sweeter

00:57 because he was able to get him.

00:59 You know the rare the rare time we all see it,

01:01 but.

01:02 To play this well for this amount of time.

01:05 I mean,

01:06 it's been a couple years where he's

01:08 for sure the guy to beat every week.

01:12 It's fun to watch and I don't see any

01:14 reason that he's going to slow down

01:16 anytime soon and he just had a baby,

01:19 so I think all the players are like man.

01:21 Maybe he's sleep deprived,

01:22 but even if he is, he's still winning.

01:24 So good for him.
