00:00Scottie Scheffler, of course, has had the year of his life.

00:07He's already won six tournaments, he won a major at the Masters, he won the Players.

00:12He has racked in more money than you could possibly imagine this year.

00:17We have not seen him though in a while, he did not play at the Scottish Open last week.

00:21He's been getting a lot of rest, Scottie.

00:23Of course, he's a new dad, him and the wife having the baby a couple of months ago, and

00:27he needs to rest up, Scottie, because there's a lot more obligations when you become the

00:32number one player in the world.

00:34Here's Scheffler.

00:35When you come back out here on the road and come try and play and do things, I have the

00:38energy to compete, I have the energy to, really the social energy to come out and interact

00:43with the fans and do this kind of stuff, sit in the media center.

00:48Believe it or not, this isn't my favorite thing in the world to do, but it's part of

00:54the job and it's something that I enjoy doing, and I like being able to come in here and

00:58sit and talk to you guys and do all the stuff that comes with playing great golf.

01:03It's a pretty cool feeling to be able to make somebody's day just by signing an autograph

01:06or taking a picture.

01:07That's a pretty fun feeling, and I'm trying to embrace more that side of it than not being

01:12able to sign everybody's autograph, and then people are upset because you can't get to

01:15them throughout the day.

01:16That's not a fun feeling, so I'm trying to lean more into the feeling of making somebody's

01:21day just by simply signing something or taking a picture.

01:24Okay, that was really some of the most ridiculous stuff I've ever heard on this show.

01:30I care about this guy's autograph and picture-taking and having to do an interview and he's tired

01:37and all the rest.

01:38I thought he was going to come on there and start talking about, you know, ever since

01:40I had this damn baby, I can't sleep.

01:43All I do is stay up all night feeding this baby, taking turns with my wife.

01:48What a bad decision that was, having a baby.

01:51I go, listen, these babies and these kids, you know, we all have them.

01:56If you have them, if you don't, respectfully, I say this, they are a pain in the ass.

02:02It is no joke.

02:04It is toxic.

02:07I mean, it is 24-7 for, like, at least, I'd say, 13 years.

02:14I mean, when they're 14, 15, 16, 17, they're on their way, right?

02:20You know, when they're teenagers, they're done listening to you, they do whatever they

02:23want and they typically get away with it, but when they're little, when they're newborn

02:28until they're 13 years old, it's like, you might as well not even, your life's over.

02:34Your life's over.

02:35I don't know how you have, you know, who's the guy, Burns, his wife had twins like two

02:40weeks ago.

02:41He's pitching in the All-Star game.

02:43The guy, he needs a bottle of Johnny Black.

02:45I mean, he like flew home to twins.

02:48Can you imagine twins or triplets?

02:51Honestly, I'd be like, where's the fentanyl?

02:54I can't take it.

02:55I can barely take one.

02:56My son was colic.

02:58I wanted to jump.

02:59I mean, this kid screamed all day.

03:01I thought I was like, this is hell.

03:04Who signed up for this?

03:05I never wanted any to begin with.

03:07Started this chick, lured me with all of her babies and everything.

03:11She lured me into this, Carver High.

03:13I never signed up for any of this.

03:15I like going to the martini club and having a few drinks.

03:18I don't need babies.

03:20Don't need it.

03:21And I gotta, listen, I would say he's tired since he had the baby, but he's, he won like

03:26a bunch of, won the Memorial, the Traveler, he's won a bunch of tournaments.

03:30I don't want him to win ever.

03:32I don't want him.

03:33We don't want him in here.

03:34I don't like it.

03:35Like his baby or his family.
