Al Michaels

So he was a prodigious talent and then gets into that horrific accident in Ohio, right in the car with a hockey player.

Justin Thomas went to school with him in Alabama and was devastated.

I mean, he was lucky to be alive.

And

and worked his way back together.

Had a great year last year, and I say great because he didn't have a ton of status, and he still made it to the BMW Championship and was one good round away from getting to the Tour Championship, getting in all the majors and all that stuff.

And so to carry forward, yeah, that was really impressive.

First win, gets to the Masters for the first time, all that stuff.

It was nice to see.

But go back to when he was 17, 18.

There's a 17-year-old in the field this week named Miles Russell who everyone's raving about.

That was Bud Colley 10, 15, 20 years ago at his track.

Oh, yeah.

Bud was big time.

I guess he was there for a year.

Because they were teammates together.

But I remember him going through at Sea Island the last tournament of the year and he gets his card.

Parents know nothing about golf.

He was just a kid who was kind of shy and just picked up golf because a lot of shy kids do because you can go out and do it on your own and got really good at it.

Someone who's got a lot of patience and someone who's really good with his wedge around the green would be my guess.
