Jamie

He must be thinking, please not again.

Don't let me throw another one away.

I was about to say, that's his main, don't get me wrong, he's a fabulous golfer, for me his main strength is almost his resilience.

Yeah.

Rich, it's all happening here.

The debates will begin about where this puts him in the pantheon of the all-time greats.

Now, it's hard to sort of judge, you know, the pre-war players, the likes of Hagen, 11 majors, Saracen, Varden, Jones, all seven majors.

But in terms of the post-war, he now pulls up alongside Sir Nick Faldo, Lee Trevino and Phil Mickelson with six, the only men ahead of him.

Palmer, Snead, both of seven, Tom Watson, eight, Hogan and Player with nine.

I mean, I don't think he's going to get to Jack and Tiger standards, but all of those guys now within reach.

Where does Rory McIlroy now sit in terms of the discussion of the all-time legends of the game?

You can never accuse the guy of being boring.

Greatest European golfer of all time.

Was he already last year?

He was already.

And I think, Beamer, when you then add in his longevity, the fact that he has been so consistently brilliant for 17 years, what he's achieved in Ryder Cups.

Should we talk about that?

Yeah, yeah.

I mean, it just elevates him to another level.

The longevity is something I think people take for granted sometimes.
