And sometimes you can open the door and let everybody else catch you because you stopped doing the thing that made you top 10, if that makes sense. I think Scheffler just has the genius of that guy is he does what he has always done. And I think he'll continue to always do it. I don't think he's going to wake up someday and want to be some new version of himself.

I picked him. Every year, we're just asked to pick a player, which is always fun, right? Hey, who's going to win the Super Bowl? All right, I got the Chiefs and the Eagles. You want me to pick one of... I mean, and this field's smaller than the other majors, but I got to pick one out of all these singular people? It's a difficult thing to do.

Last year, I picked Sheffler because I said, I don't want to be sitting there Sunday when he wins and go, why didn't I just pick him? And the reason I picked Rory this year, Ryan, is I just... And I don't mean it to sound like some horrible cliche, but I truly believe in life that there's a time that it's someone's time. And it feels like it's his.

And I think it's a combination of how he has played, how his prep has worked, and just at some point, a guy as good as him flushes whatever's happened here, good, bad, or indifferent, and just goes out and plays to his ceiling. And I don't know why I think it's this week, other than what I just said, but I really, I like him. He played great last year.

Should have won, could have won, I should say, not should have. DeChambeau was excellent at Pinehurst, but could have won Pinehurst. Missed a couple of close ones. And that was gutting. And he's had a number of close calls. It could have won, should have won at St. Andrews a couple of years ago. Had the lead. It was gutting. This guy's got scar tissue. He's a thinker, but he's open about it.
