Since the Masters, have you found yourselves thinking more about the Grand Slam than you might have in previous years? I don’t think so. It’s It’s been more um I’ve been surprised it, you know, there’s been a number of years I’ve come to the PGA and no one’s really even asked me about it and there’s been some years where, you know, where it was, you know, a story line, I guess. Um and I It’s funny. I think if Rory didn’t, then it wouldn’t have been a story line for me here necessarily. I mean, it’s all I mean, it’s always a storyline if I work my way in, but at least ahead of time, I’ve just felt like I’ve been asked about it more than, you know, other years, including years where I’ve come in, I want to say 22. I came in after winning and then finishing second back to back. Um, which I would have thought would be a, you know, a time where uh that would have been one. So, it’s I’ve kind of been surprised by the dynamic a little bit. Um, but, you know, it’s always circled on the calendar. For me, it’s a, you know, I guess if I could pick one, if I could only win one tournament the rest of my life, I’d pick this one for that reason. Um, and obviously watching Rory win, um, after, you know, giving it a try for a number of years. Uh, was was inspiring. You know, he had to, you could tell he was fight it was a harder win than most of the time. He makes it makes it look a lot easier. Um, and so that that obviously was on the forefront of his mind and um, so something like that has not been done by many people and there’s a reason why. And um, but I’d love to throw my hat in the ring and give it a chance come come the weekend this week.

  1. I am a huge Spieth fan and supporter . Since he was 16. I do not think he has the game anymore to win one of these big tournaments . Way too many bogies , but if you look closely you see a ton of birdies too. The consistency , and especially in the putting is the difference . he should hire Faxon , and dump his teacher he has had since grade school. That said, i will be pulling for him to hopefully make the cut and get the magic back on the greens to pull it off

  2. Jordon needs some FUN IN LIFE….he needs to tie one on…..live a little. !!!…maybe get some strange stuff off the street…some doggy method material…the guy is so sheltered !!

  3. Never even thought about it. Spieth went on an absolute tear back in the day. Would love to see him get in the club

  4. 10 years ago, I thought he was going to have a bunch of majors and wins! Golf's a crazy game and even the best players have huge slumps
