00:00Did you see this clip of Jack after the tournament?

00:04No.

00:05So this is who finished around him.

00:08It was, you know, Sepp Straka, Bermuda Ben Griffin, and a few other guys.

00:13Let's just say that Jack took a blowtorch to the competition near Scottie.

00:19Great players are ones who rise to the occasion

00:22and ones who know how to play coming down the stretch in important events.

00:28And, you know, looking at the leaderboard today, he didn't have –

00:36I mean, Ben Griffin's a nice player.

00:38Sepp Straka is a nice player.

00:43Nick Taylor is a nice player.

00:44Those are all the guys that were there basically coming down the stretch.

00:48But he knows that those guys, you know, are not in his league.

00:54Oh, my God.

00:56I don't know who else it might have been,

00:57but somebody else at the top, Xander or something like that would have been there.

01:02Jack's doing press counts.

01:02He might have said, well, that might be a little tougher.

01:04I might have to do something.

01:05He didn't have to.

01:08Oh, God.

01:09They got to – you know what I mean?

01:11Like at some point you got to be like, can we just have Scheffler do the interview?

01:15Because, like, your boy just – he just put everyone right –

01:18like both axles he drove over their heads.

01:22Like that was awesome.

01:23He's like, they're not in the same league.

01:25Meanwhile, they are in the same league, the PGA.

01:27If you're on the PGA Tour and you're on the leaderboard on the back nine of a big tournament

01:31that's a $4 million signature event and you're in it, you're in it.

01:36But he just said they all suck.

01:39I mean, you're talking about guys who have won multiple times this year.

01:44Straka and Ben Griffin have won two tournaments this year.

01:46He just won, like, last week.

01:48He just won last week.

01:51You know –

01:51Guy's making millions.

01:53Jack – hey, but Jack – Jack doesn't hold back.

01:58Let's just say that.

01:59Jack's going to say what Jack wants to say.

02:00I love Jack.

02:02Everybody loves Jack.

02:03And they get those milkshakes.

02:04Do you think Jack was better than Tiger?

02:05You and I always have this conversation, yes or not.

02:08It's very hard for me because I really didn't see Jack play.

02:14Like, I didn't get to – you did.

02:16You saw a lot of Jack at its height when you were a little younger.

02:20I miss Jack.

02:21Like, I barely – the guy was six when he won that last Masters in 86.

02:25Like, I really didn't get to see Jack play.

02:27So, it's hard.

02:28I saw all of Tiger.

02:29So, it's a little bit –

02:30He said he was 46 when he won that.

02:32And he knew that golf course like he knew his rear end.

02:35He knew everything about the golf course.

02:39He knew how to play.

02:40The guy was 18 majors.

02:42I don't care what anybody says.

02:43He's the greatest ever.

02:44I actually think – and when I saw that last night,

02:46I actually thought another, like, kind of conspiracy theory with it.

02:49I think that was also Jack taking a shot at Rory for not coming

02:53because he was mad last week that Rory wasn't there.

02:56Remember, he was –

02:57I think he was –

02:57I think he was taking a shot at Rory as well for –

03:01this is who he had to compete with this week.

03:03Didn't he just help Rory figure out how to win at Augusta

03:07because he couldn't do it on his own?

03:09Correct.

03:10That's precisely what.

03:11And he still shafted him.
