So you can't really force it. 24:01.148 --> 24:02.607 [commentator] Åberg for par. 24:02.691 --> 24:04.901 -[commentator 2] That is well done. -[commentator] Nice. 24:04.985 --> 24:07.529 I think, at Augusta, you're never gonna win it the first day, 24:07.612 --> 24:09.322 but you can lose it the first day. 24:09.406 --> 24:12.492 So you have to focus on the shot in front of you 24:12.576 --> 24:14.911 because Augusta is so demanding, 24:14.995 --> 24:18.415 especially when it's playing like this, that you can't lose your focus. 24:20.959 --> 24:24.379 [commentator 3] And Scottie Scheffler, number one in the world, 24:24.463 --> 24:26.548 2022 Masters champion. 24:27.382 --> 24:28.884 [suspenseful music playing] 24:28.967 --> 24:31.845 [commentator 3] A little different week for Scottie. He's alone this week. 24:31.928 --> 24:35.474 His wife, Meredith, expecting their first child any day now. 24:36.641 --> 24:38.643 [Scottie] She's pretty much come to every tournament. 24:38.727 --> 24:42.439 She's been with me every step of the way. And so coming to the Masters without her, 24:42.522 --> 24:47.235 definitely a weird feeling, especially, going to sleep the first night just alone. 24:47.861 --> 24:50.405 So the house felt a bit empty at times. 24:53.492 --> 24:55.619 [cheering and applause] 24:55.702 --> 24:58.705 [commentator] Scottie has been saying that, "If she were to go into labor, 24:58.788 --> 25:02.250 it doesn't matter what point it would be, I'm going home." 25:08.506 --> 25:09.341 [cheering] 25:09.424 --> 25:11.218 [commentator] Hello! 25:14.804 --> 25:17.933 How about the amateur Neal Shipley for birdie? 25:19.226 --> 25:20.644 [cheering and applause] 25:21.770 --> 25:23.855 [commentator 4] I hear a lot of support for him. 25:28.109 --> 25:30.237 [Rapaport] Neal finishes the first round in the top 20, 25:30.320 --> 25:32.864 which is pretty wild for an amateur in any circumstance, 25:32.948 --> 25:34.908 but especially in these conditions. 25:34.991 --> 25:36.701 And you're looking at this kid and thinking, 25:36.785 --> 25:38.286 "Gotta keep an eye on this guy." 25:43.416 --> 25:45.460 -Hey, congratulations. -[Neal] Thanks. 25:45.543 --> 25:48.338 -Nothing better than what you just did. -[Neal] Thank you very much. 25:48.421 --> 25:50.882 -[man] Good luck tomorrow. -[Neal] Thanks, Coach. Appreciate it. 25:54.344 --> 25:59.558 Can I get a large Pike, please? And a cinnamon coffee cake? 25:59.641 --> 26:01.851 [woman] All right, that's gonna be $7.70. 26:01.935 --> 26:03.353 -Thank you. -[woman] Thank you. 26:04.020 --> 26:07.691 A large black coffee like a psychopath, I've been told. 26:07.774 --> 26:09.442 [chuckles] 26:11.444 --> 26:13.905 [Neal] My caddies, we're a big fan of no-lid lifestyle. 26:13.989 --> 26:15.949 You just take it off, drive with no lid. 26:16.032 --> 26:18.159 It's a power move, I guess. 26:19.369 --> 26:21.705 Although, Scottie doesn't drink coffee 26:21.788 --> 26:23.790 during his weeks on the road and tournaments, 26:23.873 --> 26:26.042 which… I don't understand how he could do that. 26:26.126 --> 26:30.171 But maybe we should start doing that. I mean, he's been doing okay this year. 26:31.464 --> 26:33.466 [tense music playing] 26:34.467 --> 26:35.927 [commentator] The wind's howling, 26:36.011 --> 26:38.930 and we are working our way towards the weekend 26:39.014 --> 26:40.515 here at the 88th Masters. 26:41.808 --> 26:44.311 [commentator 2] "Easy" is not in the dictionary today. 26:44.394 --> 26:45.437 [commentator] No. 26:45.520 --> 26:47.731 [commentator 3] A day of mental fortitude. 26:48.523 --> 26:50.025 [commentator] Here's Scottie Scheffler. 26:52.360 --> 26:56.281 Oh my goodness. The first bogey of the tournament. 26:58.491 --> 27:00.827 [commentator 4] The wind is up more than yesterday. 27:00.910 --> 27:04.247 [commentator 2] The gusts, it's getting to the point now it's just hard to stand up. 27:05.957 --> 27:08.460 [Rapaport] The weather and the wind are turning the cut line into 27:08.543 --> 27:09.461 kind of a bloodbath. 27:09.544 --> 27:12.547 [commentator 4] A surprising round from DJ. 27:12.630 --> 27:15.383 [Rapaport] You've got major champions, a bunch of top 40 players 27:15.467 --> 27:18.762 who are not gonna stick around for the weekend, and in these conditions, 27:18.845 --> 27:21.765 you're just trying to claw, you're trying to hang around somehow 27:21.848 --> 27:24.476 to give yourself a chance to just get two more rounds. 27:25.602 --> 27:27.604 [commentator] Neal Shipley, the low amateur, 27:28.188 --> 27:30.398 plus three with a 76 today. 27:30.482 --> 27:31.858 [applause] 27:32.692 --> 27:35.278 [commentator 5] And here is Ludvig Åberg. 27:36.571 --> 27:39.074 And he moves forward to four back. 27:42.494 --> 27:43.912 [commentator 4] Åberg at 18. 27:47.207 --> 27:49.167 [commentator 3] The lowest round of the day so far. 27:49.751 --> 27:53.463 Sixty-nine, first player to break 70 in the second round. 27:54.214 --> 27:57.050 [commentator] They say you need experience to figure it out at Augusta. 27:57.133 --> 28:00.095 -It took him one round of experience… -[commentator 3] So much for that! 28:00.178 --> 28:05.016 [commentator] …to come back the next day and be the best in the field in round two. 28:06.726 --> 28:09.020 [commentator 6] There's been ferocious winds all day long, 28:09.104 --> 28:11.314 and just as the players are exiting the course, 28:11.398 --> 28:13.692 the wind decides to stop. 28:15.276 --> 28:16.319 [Ludvig] Oh! 28:16.403 --> 28:17.987 That was a windy day, wasn't it? 28:18.071 --> 28:21.032 -[Olivia] It's like being back in Lubbock. -[Ludvig] I know. 28:21.116 --> 28:26.454 I'm pretty sure I've been in trouble, like, twice for fast walking. [chuckles] 28:26.538 --> 28:29.791 So how are you feeling going into the weekend? 28:29.874 --> 28:31.793 Tomorrow when I tee it up, I'm gonna be nervous. 28:31.876 --> 28:33.628 -I'm gonna be shaking and… -[Olivia] Yeah. 28:33.712 --> 28:37.340 -You don't show it though. [laughs] -No, but it's different. 28:37.424 --> 28:40.385 Yeah. What's going on in the inside is very different. 28:40.969 --> 28:43.972 -But it's like you love these moments. -Yeah, I do. I mean… 28:44.055 --> 28:46.433 It's, like, what you train and practice for. 28:46.516 --> 28:50.437 Yeah, so far, I'm pretty content. I'm pretty pleased, actually. 28:50.520 --> 28:52.230 -You're doing good. -Thank you, love. 28:52.313 --> 28:53.314 [both chuckle] 28:55.900 --> 28:59.571 You… you gotta use your caddie card at some point, my man. 28:59.654 --> 29:03.074 I don't have… Dude, this is my third time caddying ever. 29:03.158 --> 29:05.869 Two U.S. Ams and a Masters. That's it. 29:06.995 --> 29:09.956 I had a group project. I'm doing this group project with these people. 29:10.039 --> 29:14.335 I didn't tell the group that I was playing in the Masters, that I'm working with, 29:14.419 --> 29:17.755 and apparently one of them was watching TV, 29:17.839 --> 29:20.300 uh, watching the Masters and just saw me pop up there 29:20.383 --> 29:23.428 and they're like, "What in the hell is he doing there?" [chuckles] 29:26.473 --> 29:29.726 I really didn't feel nervous Wednesday until the Par 3 Contest, 29:29.809 --> 29:31.853 like, actually in a competitive setting. 29:31.936 --> 29:34.439 I was just trying to pick up the tees properly out of the bucket, 29:34.522 --> 29:36.191 but I was pretty nervous. 29:36.274 --> 29:39.110 There's not that many guys who've been low amateur, 29:39.194 --> 29:42.071 so it's a real honor to have locked that up. 29:42.155 --> 29:44.115 On Friday, halfway through the afternoon, 29:44.199 --> 29:46.242 realizing that I was gonna be the only amateur 29:46.326 --> 29:49.037 to make the cut was a… honestly, a big sigh of relief 29:49.120 --> 29:52.957 because I've already won the low amateur, but there's a lot of pressure. 29:53.041 --> 29:56.252 There's a lot of people watching you. It's a new environment. 29:56.336 --> 29:59.047 It's a whole different animal than college golf, really. 29:59.839 --> 30:02.759 I mean, I've obviously played college tournaments with Ludvig, 30:02.842 --> 30:05.595 but, uh, you know, with those legends like Tiger, 30:05.678 --> 30:08.640 I don't think I've been, uh… been around those guys a lot. 30:08.723 --> 30:11.935 So this is cool. Hopefully, we can, uh, beat some of them this weekend. 30:12.018 --> 30:15.813 It'd be pretty fun. I actually have an assignment due Sunday. 30:16.773 --> 30:18.983 Do you think I can get an extension on that? 30:19.067 --> 30:21.444 One of my teachers didn't know what the Masters was. 30:21.528 --> 30:23.822 [laughing] Your teachers didn't know what the Masters was? 30:24.405 --> 30:26.324 [Carter] Maybe we can send her a picture. 30:30.495 --> 30:32.705 [commentator] It's sunny. It's gorgeous. 30:32.789 --> 30:36.584 It's springtime in Augusta, and what could possibly be better than that? 30:36.668 --> 30:38.127 How's the baby? 30:38.211 --> 30:40.171 -[Brooks] Oh, he's good. Yeah. -He's good? 30:41.297 --> 30:44.509 [commentator 2] The breeze is nowhere near as brutal as it was yesterday, 30:44.592 --> 30:49.764 but the aftermath of that wind yesterday has the greens very firm and fast today. 30:50.890 --> 30:52.725 [commentator 3] Scottie Scheffler at the first. 30:53.893 --> 30:56.771 This, his third after missing the green. 30:59.524 --> 31:01.568 [cheering] 31:01.651 --> 31:04.696 [commentator] A chip-in birdie at the first. 31:07.866 --> 31:09.117 Here's Åberg. 31:11.077 --> 31:13.580 [commentator 4] Very difficult hole location at five today. 31:13.663 --> 31:16.082 That is amazing. 31:17.208 --> 31:20.295 Augusta's one of the courses where you have to let the good golf come 31:20.378 --> 31:23.131 and let the results come, and I managed to score well 31:23.214 --> 31:25.174 and then kind of climb up the leaderboard. 31:25.675 --> 31:28.761 [commentator] Åberg with a chance to pick up another one. 31:29.470 --> 31:30.555 [cheering and applause] 31:30.638 --> 31:32.473 [commentator 2] He's only two off the lead. 31:32.974 --> 31:34.892 [commentator] If you haven't heard about him, 31:34.976 --> 31:37.353 you're gonna hear about him for years. 31:39.188 --> 31:41.482 [commentator 5] One amateur made the cut, Neal Shipley. 31:42.609 --> 31:47.572 He is going to be celebrated and honored and recognized on Sunday evening. 31:49.032 --> 31:50.408 [grunts softly] 31:50.491 --> 31:52.160 Long day. 31:54.996 --> 31:58.625 Well, it looks like I'm playing Tiger. That's a good consolation for shooting 80. 31:59.751 --> 32:00.710 [grunts] 32:01.294 --> 32:03.004 I need to find a red shirt. 32:03.546 --> 32:05.506 [laughs] 32:06.007 --> 32:08.134 Just show up with a red shirt. 32:08.217 --> 32:09.928 [man] Okay, bye. See ya. 32:10.011 --> 32:11.054 [tense music playing] 32:11.137 --> 32:14.432 [commentator] To 13. Scottie Scheffler can make some noise here. 32:14.515 --> 32:15.934 This is for eagle. 32:18.686 --> 32:19.687 You want noise? 32:19.771 --> 32:20.813 You got it! 32:20.897 --> 32:22.899 [cheering and applause] 32:24.609 --> 32:27.820 [commentator 2] Don't often see that kind of emotion out of Scottie Scheffler. 32:27.904 --> 32:30.198 [commentator] Or the rare triple fist pump. 32:30.698 --> 32:36.371 And in that one stroke, he vaults all the way back into a tie at the top. 32:37.664 --> 32:39.374 [Scottie] I'm not worried about anybody else. 32:39.457 --> 32:41.376 I'm trying to control what I can control. 32:41.459 --> 32:43.836 And I think knowing I've already pulled it off once before 32:43.920 --> 32:45.254 is definitely comforting. 32:46.339 --> 32:48.341 [cheering] 32:48.841 --> 32:53.721 [commentator] He plays the two par fives on the second nine in seven strokes. 32:55.181 --> 32:58.893 We have Åberg. The Masters rookie is in the hunt. 32:58.976 --> 33:00.395 So impressive. 33:00.478 --> 33:02.313 And could Scottie Scheffler win a jacket 33:02.397 --> 33:04.983 for the second time in three years? We'll see you tomorrow. 33:06.776 --> 33:08.986 [reporter] Ludvig, your first career major championship, 33:09.070 --> 33:12.156 how do you keep from thinking about how big this is 33:12.240 --> 33:13.741 and kind of stay in the moment? 33:13.825 --> 33:17.370 Um, yeah, I think about it all the time. And I'm okay with thinking about that. 33:17.453 --> 33:20.039 I, uh… Obviously, I'm a competitor, and I wanna win tournaments, 33:20.123 --> 33:24.127 and, uh, obviously I feel very fortunate to be in this position, 33:24.210 --> 33:26.170 to be here playing golf and, uh… 33:26.254 --> 33:30.508 But yes, I don't think you should shy away from it or try to push it away. 33:30.591 --> 33:34.846 I try to embrace it, and I try to be okay with all that comes with it, I guess. 33:37.432 --> 33:40.601 -[man] Good evening. How are you? -Can you take me to, uh, the gym? 33:40.685 --> 33:42.395 Yes, sir. My pleasure. 33:47.316 --> 33:48.985 [Neal] I'm definitely nervous for tomorrow. 33:49.068 --> 33:50.903 [man] How do you think Tiger's gonna treat you? 33:50.987 --> 33:54.407 Do you remember when you were a kid and we went to the practice round at Oakmont? 33:54.490 --> 33:56.576 Yeah, and he was laser focused. 33:56.659 --> 33:58.703 We followed him that whole practice round. 33:58.786 --> 34:01.581 -Yeah. -You were head-to-toe Tiger Woods gear. 34:01.664 --> 34:02.665 [laughs] 34:02.749 --> 34:04.834 Things have a crazy way of working out. 34:05.501 --> 34:10.131 Yeah, 'cause I, like, shot 80, and now I'm playing with Tiger Woods. 34:10.214 --> 34:13.468 And that's probably the best double bogey of my career. 34:13.551 --> 34:15.136 [Neal Sr.] By far the best. 34:15.219 --> 34:17.680 Remember you had to have those Tiger Woods clubs? 34:17.764 --> 34:21.559 Yeah, yeah, I did. I did get those Tiger Woods irons when they came out. Oh. 34:22.101 --> 34:25.813 Oh, I played for three years with them in college. I did okay. I did just fine. 34:25.897 --> 34:28.024 [Neal Sr.] I just can't believe we're doing this. 34:28.107 --> 34:31.444 I am incredibly proud. But I've always been incredibly proud of you. 34:31.527 --> 34:34.405 This is icing on the cake, but even when you're playing juniors, 34:34.489 --> 34:36.365 and I was proud then, too, you know. 34:36.449 --> 34:38.701 This is… this is a different scale for sure, 34:38.785 --> 34:41.537 but I always knew you were made for greatness. 34:44.415 --> 34:45.750 [dramatic music playing] 34:45.833 --> 34:47.835 [commentator] It's Sunday at the Masters 34:47.919 --> 34:51.339 with premium conditions and a cadre of contenders 34:51.422 --> 34:55.676 who are primed to make their case for the coveted green jacket. 34:56.344 --> 34:57.804 -How are you? -[man] Good.

Like, that… that's really cool. [chuckles] 35:32.755 --> 35:34.132 [Wilson] If you're Neal Shipley, 35:34.215 --> 35:37.510 you're paired up with Tiger Woods, five-time Masters champion. 35:37.593 --> 35:38.594 The GOAT. 35:39.345 --> 35:40.721 You know you may not win, 35:40.805 --> 35:44.183 but you may have an opportunity to show him something. 35:44.267 --> 35:46.686 [cheering and applause] 35:46.769 --> 35:50.648 [commentator] The five-time champion gave them something to cheer about. 35:51.899 --> 35:55.069 [Neal] Never in my life did I ever think I'd be playing with Tiger Woods 35:55.153 --> 35:56.445 Sunday at the Masters. 35:56.529 --> 35:58.739 I never thought that would ever happen. 35:58.823 --> 35:59.949 -So proud. -[man] Great job. 36:00.032 --> 36:01.742 -[Neal] Thanks, Dad. -[Neal Sr.] Love you. 36:02.410 --> 36:04.078 [Neal] Love you, guys. See you in a while. 36:04.912 --> 36:07.874 The odds of me playing with him again are pretty low, so that was, uh… 36:07.957 --> 36:10.376 It's a once-in-a-lifetime type of deal. It's awesome. 36:12.003 --> 36:13.921 And I beat him. [chuckles] 36:14.005 --> 36:16.007 [suspenseful music playing] 36:19.927 --> 36:21.762 [Ludvig] I've got three rounds under my belt. 36:22.263 --> 36:26.309 I felt like I've handled it pretty good. I wanna have a chance to win it. 36:26.392 --> 36:29.353 Scottie's amazing. If he goes on and plays great, 36:29.437 --> 36:31.856 there's not a whole lot I can do to affect that. 36:31.939 --> 36:35.943 I can only control myself and my emotions and my routines. 36:37.028 --> 36:40.656 No matter how it goes today, I'm just gonna still look back tonight 36:40.740 --> 36:43.242 and be like, "Okay, I gave it everything." 36:44.994 --> 36:46.871 [applause] 36:50.833 --> 36:54.545 [Balionis] Sunday of the Masters is one of the best days of the year. 36:54.629 --> 36:57.340 I would say it's probably the most stressful day of the year 36:57.423 --> 37:00.343 if you find yourself near the top of the leaderboard, 37:00.426 --> 37:04.263 understanding that the only thing that lies between you 37:04.347 --> 37:09.268 and a childhood dream is 18 holes of golf and, of course, Scottie Scheffler. 37:10.436 --> 37:13.231 [Fred] Now driving, Ludvig Åberg! 37:13.814 --> 37:15.816 [cheering and applause] 37:18.903 --> 37:21.489 [Fred] Now driving, Scottie Scheffler! 37:21.572 --> 37:23.199 [cheering and applause] 37:26.327 --> 37:28.829 [Scottie] No lead is safe on that course. There's so much trouble, 37:28.913 --> 37:31.165 and there's so much volatility, especially on Sunday. 37:31.249 --> 37:34.377 In order to keep that control, you have to continue to play good golf. 37:34.961 --> 37:37.505 [commentator] The two with Ludvig Åberg. 37:40.841 --> 37:44.971 [commentator 2] He has a chance to don that green jacket on his first attempt. 37:46.847 --> 37:48.766 [commentator 3] What a putt for Åberg! 37:51.018 --> 37:53.646 [Rapaport] The crazy thing is Ludvig comes out of the gates hot, 37:53.729 --> 37:56.941 like it's his tenth time playing this tournament, not his first. 37:57.024 --> 38:00.528 And the guy who's leaving the door open for him is Scottie. 38:01.153 --> 38:02.822 [commentator 2] I'm a little concerned 38:02.905 --> 38:05.449 with the distance control issues on approach. 38:10.663 --> 38:12.373 [commentator] Oh, this is gonna get good. 38:13.499 --> 38:14.417 Åberg 38:15.251 --> 38:16.919 plays it perfectly. 38:17.003 --> 38:19.005 [applause] 38:20.423 --> 38:23.050 [commentator] We're at seven. Big putt for Scheffler. 38:24.635 --> 38:26.679 Cannot save par. 38:27.179 --> 38:33.019 And now we have a three-way tie at six under par. 38:34.854 --> 38:35.938 Åberg for birdie. 38:41.610 --> 38:44.447 -[commentator 2] Find it. -[commentator] He's got it. Yes! 38:44.530 --> 38:46.490 [applause] 38:47.408 --> 38:50.828 [commentator] Who needs experience when you got all the shots? 38:50.911 --> 38:55.249 [Wilson] It's been 45 years since a first-timer has won the Masters, 38:55.333 --> 38:58.711 and here's Ludvig Åberg with the chance to do just that. 39:00.713 --> 39:02.339 [commentator] Having a little snack and… 39:02.423 --> 39:04.008 Oh, there it went. 39:04.759 --> 39:07.636 [Ludvig] I thought for a second I was gonna pick it up and keep eating. 39:07.720 --> 39:09.889 Then I realized there's a camera in front of me, 39:09.972 --> 39:12.892 and I figured that wouldn't be a good idea to do. 39:16.103 --> 39:17.271 [commentator] Now Scottie. 39:20.191 --> 39:22.610 Oh yes. Oh yes. 39:27.073 --> 39:28.199 Come on, now. 39:29.658 --> 39:32.703 That might be at this point the shot of the tournament. 39:33.287 --> 39:35.289 [Scottie] I love being kind of in front of the crowd. 39:35.373 --> 39:38.125 Anytime you're in the final group, there's definitely gonna be pressure, 39:38.209 --> 39:39.585 and that's kind of the fun part. 39:39.668 --> 39:44.215 Well, I think if I play a five that stays over to the right and turns over, 39:44.715 --> 39:45.883 I think that's the right shot. 39:45.966 --> 39:47.802 Okay. And you're okay with that turning over 39:47.885 --> 39:50.137 that it would start playing off the right, playing that? 39:50.221 --> 39:53.224 I think so. I mean, that's… that's the way I've been hitting the shots. 39:53.724 --> 39:56.394 [commentator 2] These guys are now forced to put their foot on the gas 39:56.477 --> 39:58.187 and take a little extra risk. 39:59.230 --> 40:00.231 There you go. 40:01.899 --> 40:02.858 [commentator 2] Careful. 40:03.359 --> 40:04.318 [commentator 3] Uh-oh. 40:04.819 --> 40:05.861 [crowd] Oh! 40:06.487 --> 40:08.656 [commentator 3] Oh dear, Åberg. 40:09.990 --> 40:11.909 First big mistake. 40:12.618 --> 40:14.870 And that will be hard to recover from. 40:16.038 --> 40:17.957 Now at six, he will ride down. 40:19.250 --> 40:21.210 [Ludvig] Made a mistake on 11, hit it in the water. 40:21.293 --> 40:23.712 Obviously wasn't ideal, but I think it's just important 40:23.796 --> 40:27.299 to keep that joy in the game and, uh, make sure that everything you do, 40:27.383 --> 40:28.843 it's supposed to be fun. 40:30.761 --> 40:32.972 [Joe] When you're playing against a guy like Scottie, 40:33.055 --> 40:34.974 the margin for error's small. 40:35.474 --> 40:37.810 [commentator] That is beautiful from Åberg. 40:37.893 --> 40:39.603 [applause] 40:39.687 --> 40:41.272 [Joe] We kind of just regrouped, 40:41.355 --> 40:44.608 moved on, and said "Hey, let's go finish strong and you never know." 40:45.276 --> 40:46.777 [commentator] To get to seven under… 40:47.361 --> 40:48.362 Yes! 40:48.446 --> 40:49.655 [cheering] 40:54.952 --> 40:56.787 [commentator] Scottie Scheffler. 40:57.496 --> 40:59.331 A two-shot lead. 41:00.875 --> 41:02.960 [mysterious music playing] 41:10.593 --> 41:13.512 [commentator] Will it use that backstop? It's gonna try. 41:13.596 --> 41:15.139 And it's gonna get better. 41:15.973 --> 41:17.516 Scottie Scheffler… 41:19.727 --> 41:22.062 spins a beauty at 14. 41:22.897 --> 41:26.317 I think the story here has been that Åberg has put on pressure, 41:26.400 --> 41:28.277 and then Scottie says, 41:28.360 --> 41:30.362 "I'm gonna answer right back." 41:32.072 --> 41:33.282 [applause] 41:33.365 --> 41:35.242 [commentator] Scheffler up three. 41:42.458 --> 41:43.667 Why not? 41:43.751 --> 41:45.961 Why not get in the hole? 41:48.797 --> 41:50.966 A four-shot lead. 41:52.885 --> 41:54.220 [commentator 2] Ludvig at 18. 41:54.720 --> 41:58.766 [commentator] Mind-blowing for some to see a first-ever appearance in a major 41:59.600 --> 42:02.102 end up in a second-place finish at Augusta. 42:03.229 --> 42:05.689 [commentator 2] He's proven to us he's got what it takes. 42:05.773 --> 42:07.483 He's here to stay, for sure. 42:09.109 --> 42:10.528 [Joe] Lud fell short of winning, 42:10.611 --> 42:13.322 but the only guy that beat him in the field 42:13.405 --> 42:15.032 was the best player in the world. 42:15.115 --> 42:17.284 -Great playing, Ludvig. Well done. -[Ludvig] Thank you. 42:17.368 --> 42:19.161 Congratulations! You were awesome. 42:19.662 --> 42:22.998 [Ludvig] It was a good week.

It was awesome. 43:51.879 --> 43:53.881 [announcer] It is my pleasure to welcome you 43:53.964 --> 43:58.135 to the presentation ceremony of the 88th Masters Tournament. 43:58.218 --> 44:01.472 Jon, I would be grateful if you would now please do the honor 44:01.555 --> 44:04.516 of placing the green jacket on Scottie Scheffler. 44:04.600 --> 44:06.101 [applause] 44:06.185 --> 44:09.104 [Balionis] For Scottie Scheffler, he slammed the door closed, 44:09.188 --> 44:10.606 wins for a second time. 44:10.689 --> 44:12.941 He put himself in the history books. 44:13.025 --> 44:15.986 He's not competing against every other guy on the PGA TOUR. 44:16.070 --> 44:17.488 He's competing against himself. 44:18.364 --> 44:20.783 -[grunts] -[chuckling] 44:21.825 --> 44:24.328 -How was that? [chuckles] -[woman] That was pretty nice. 44:24.411 --> 44:28.123 It felt like he knew he's in complete control of his game now. 44:28.207 --> 44:29.416 [laughs] 44:29.500 --> 44:31.377 [Rapaport] He seems unstoppable right now. 44:31.460 --> 44:32.836 So the question is, 44:32.920 --> 44:35.839 who or what could potentially slow him down? 44:35.923 --> 44:36.965 All right. 44:37.049 --> 44:39.134 [man] Wanna do anything else?

"Wait, what's going on here?" 44:52.314 --> 44:53.232 This can't be real. 44:53.315 --> 44:54.858 I thought it was fake news 44:55.526 --> 44:58.487 Playing with someone like Rory, I feel the pressure a little bit. 44:58.570 --> 45:01.198 [man] I'm here to announce our Ryder Cup captain. 45:01.281 --> 45:03.158 [Bryson] I got a lot to prove to myself. 45:03.867 --> 45:07.246 "It's the pursuit of perfection, well-knowing we can't achieve perfection. 45:07.329 --> 45:10.582 "We'll achieve excellence along the way."
