I thought… I was like, "Sorry, Rors." 27:16.343 --> 27:17.594 [chuckles] 27:17.677 --> 27:21.598 [Dethier] So even though, on paper, Rory and Shane seem like, 27:21.681 --> 27:23.558 yeah, they'd be the best team there, 27:23.641 --> 27:26.394 there is no guarantee that they're gonna contend 27:26.478 --> 27:27.896 and certainly not win. 27:29.022 --> 27:32.525 [commentator 2] This is a really big putt for Lowry and his confidence. 27:33.610 --> 27:35.862 [commentator 4] And he just hasn't been close. 27:37.113 --> 27:39.699 [Dethier] But if you're looking at the Canadians, at Adam and Nick, 27:39.783 --> 27:40.867 they had a great day. 27:41.368 --> 27:43.536 [commentator 5] Taylor and Hadwin, one back. 27:45.121 --> 27:46.998 [commentator] Look out for these two. 27:47.499 --> 27:50.377 [commentator 2] And this would be for a share of the lead. 27:52.295 --> 27:54.214 [commentator 3] I like to guess percentages, Gary. 27:54.297 --> 27:57.509 What do you think the chances are of this putt going in? 27:58.760 --> 27:59.844 [Gary] 30%. 28:02.347 --> 28:04.182 [commentator 2] Make that a hundred. 28:04.265 --> 28:05.558 [applause] 28:06.434 --> 28:09.813 [commentator 6] Canadian duo Adam Hadwin and Nick Taylor 28:09.896 --> 28:13.608 play well down the stretch, aim to climb into contention. 28:15.360 --> 28:18.405 [Adam] We're right in it there through 36. We're confident. 28:18.488 --> 28:21.157 If we put ourselves in a position come Sunday, 28:21.241 --> 28:22.575 we know we're gonna have a chance. 28:22.659 --> 28:24.661 [background chatter] 28:30.625 --> 28:32.585 Is there any way we can put some hockey on that TV? 28:32.669 --> 28:33.628 Sure! 28:36.297 --> 28:37.298 [Adam] Thank you. 28:37.966 --> 28:39.384 [Nick] Hell yeah.

[chuckles] 29:02.073 --> 29:05.201 [Adam] To potentially tee it up with him in a Presidents Cup, 29:05.285 --> 29:06.327 which is 29:07.829 --> 29:12.041 our highest team event that we can play, 29:12.542 --> 29:15.545 I think it'd be a lot of fun, but I think it'd be a little emotional. 29:15.628 --> 29:19.007 I try not to think about that too much. I wanna make sure we're there first 29:19.090 --> 29:21.718 before, uh… before I think about it too much. 29:23.595 --> 29:25.221 [mysterious music playing] 29:25.305 --> 29:26.890 [machine whirring] 29:38.610 --> 29:41.070 [Rory] At least they see me being healthy, which is good. 29:41.654 --> 29:43.406 Me sitting here having a Diet Coke. 29:44.032 --> 29:45.950 Watch your table manners now, Rors. 29:46.451 --> 29:48.953 -Your mom is gonna be able to see this. -Yeah, I know. It's fine. 29:49.746 --> 29:52.582 [Shane] I remember saying years ago, "Do you ever take a day off?" 29:52.665 --> 29:55.418 He sat there and thought about it, and he was like, "No." 29:55.919 --> 29:59.589 So he's very driven to be one of the best, and I think that's why he is. 29:59.672 --> 30:02.300 [man] Do you feel protective of Rory in some ways? 30:04.177 --> 30:05.386 No one's ever asked me that. 30:05.470 --> 30:07.430 Now that you say it, I probably would do. Yeah. 30:07.514 --> 30:09.682 [Rory] I'm eating like an American with one hand. 30:09.766 --> 30:11.392 -Like one fork. -[Shane laughs] 30:11.476 --> 30:13.603 Like, Americans don't eat with two hands. 30:13.686 --> 30:16.147 I'm, like, eating… I'm actually gonna eat normally. 30:16.856 --> 30:19.442 [Shane] He gets a lot of unnecessary criticism 30:19.526 --> 30:22.779 from the general public, the golf media, the other players. 30:22.862 --> 30:24.822 Stuff like that can weigh heavily on people, 30:24.906 --> 30:28.117 and I just feel like, uh… like he gets a lot of 30:29.327 --> 30:30.411 shit. [chuckles] 30:31.371 --> 30:33.331 [Rory] Sometimes I've struggled with the balance 30:33.414 --> 30:35.041 of trying to be the best golfer, 30:35.124 --> 30:38.545 trying to be the best husband or the best dad or the best… 30:38.628 --> 30:41.965 And sometimes I get overwhelmed, and it can get all a bit too much for me. 30:42.048 --> 30:44.133 And then, you know, I see 30:45.927 --> 30:48.096 how Shane does it with a lot of ease. 30:48.179 --> 30:51.266 And sometimes you have to focus on one or the other. 30:51.349 --> 30:53.476 And, you know, he's really good at that, 30:53.560 --> 30:58.356 and I see him as, like, a good role model for me in some ways. 30:59.524 --> 31:00.859 And yeah, I can learn… 31:00.942 --> 31:04.696 I can learn a lot from him and how he handles everything in his life. 31:07.407 --> 31:09.409 [suspenseful music playing] 31:11.494 --> 31:13.162 [commentator] Back on the bayou 31:13.246 --> 31:15.415 in what's been a banner week for New Orleans. 31:15.498 --> 31:16.708 [indistinct chatter] 31:16.791 --> 31:18.251 [commentator 2] The headliner group. 31:18.334 --> 31:20.962 Rory McIlroy has pulled a lot of people through the gate. 31:21.045 --> 31:24.382 [commentator 3] They're off to a slow start today. Couple early bogeys. 31:24.966 --> 31:27.218 They'll have to put their foot on the gas pedal 31:27.302 --> 31:28.803 if they want to catch these guys. 31:32.640 --> 31:35.810 [Rory] There's some days where, no matter how hard you try, 31:35.894 --> 31:39.939 it just starts sort of going the other way a little bit, and it can spiral. 31:41.441 --> 31:45.486 And right now, it feels like, um… we were out of it a little bit. 31:46.070 --> 31:47.906 -[Rory] I needed that. -[boy] Go, Rory! 31:47.989 --> 31:49.449 [Rory] I needed that one. 31:49.532 --> 31:50.742 [Shane] I'll get you. 31:51.451 --> 31:52.744 [Rory] When I'm playing well… 31:52.827 --> 31:53.661 Oh, go. 31:53.745 --> 31:56.664 …I always think to myself, "How can I ever play badly?" 31:56.748 --> 31:59.250 And then when I play badly, sometimes I think to myself, 31:59.334 --> 32:00.835 "How can I ever play well?" 32:01.336 --> 32:03.963 [commentator 3] Oh my, Trevor, that's a big mistake. 32:04.047 --> 32:05.548 [Shane] Rory!
