You know, you can't beat him.

And he he looks at ways to hit driver rather than not use it.

And I would go back and say a couple of things.

First of all, last year when he had his three shot lead going into 13, he pulled a three without laid up and you saw what happened.

He made a double.

This year he gets to 11 and he makes an eight footer for a par.

I think that was the biggest momentum putt that he made there because if he dropped that shot going to 12, that's dangerous.

So he kept the lead, hit the best iron shot of the week for him, that nine iron that he hit into.

uh to 12 to the to the back right to the sunday hole location which was the closest shot of the day makes that putt which is a left to right breaker the previous shot had been right to left and now he gets up on 13 having kind of pushed three drives in a row too far having to lay up every time and he hits what was the best drive of any of the par fives he hit of the four par fives all four days of the 16 t balls that was the best one because it got him up

It was even though it was in the first cut, it was past the banking part, the sloping part of the fairway where he was on a level like lie.

And, you know, he played that conservative second shot, which you have to do trying to use the bank.

And that two putt up and down was huge because Cameron Young was right next to him.

Rory's was seven or eight feet below the hole with a putt.

Young from the same place used his wedge to chip it and hit it just outside Rory's.

Cameron Young makes.

You know, I was asked that just an hour ago on a show for Golf Channel, and I hadn't heard that.

And I don't know who the person is who asked that question.

If that's a competitor, I'm embarrassed for that competitor because Rory has earned every right in the world to do that.

You know, you could hit that.

If that player was in the field, he has the right to go there as well.
