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.
I appreciate that there's a combination of just absolute badass and then the vulnerability of just like, fuck, this hurt, man. Like I got knocked down. but I'm going to get up and keep swinging. Um, so I don't know, rooting for Eleanor to overstate it. I just think if he won, I think a lot of people would just go right on. Good for that dude. You know what I mean?

You finish the slam and finishing the slam. Here's the hardest one. Cause you're going to come every year and you're going to get asked every year about, and every year you don't do it.

I just have this odd sense that it's his turn and his turn, his turn in his time.
