WEBVTT 00:06.005 --> 00:08.258 -[suspenseful music playing] -[Ted] Okay. On this couch? 00:08.341 --> 00:11.720 [man] Yeah. We want to try to make it as comfy for you as possible. 00:12.262 --> 00:14.639 -So if you're… Yeah. -Yeah, that's good. 00:14.723 --> 00:16.057 [man laughs] 00:16.141 --> 00:18.810 Ted Scott! Ready for his interview. 00:18.893 --> 00:20.603 [man 2 laughs] 00:22.689 --> 00:24.065 [Ted] My name is Ted Scott. 00:24.816 --> 00:27.819 I'm a PGA TOUR caddie. This is my 25th year. 00:32.866 --> 00:36.619 The caddie-player relationship is really important. 00:36.703 --> 00:39.289 Caddies have one of the hardest jobs in golf. 00:39.372 --> 00:42.500 [Rapaport] They're not hitting shots, but they're directly tied 00:42.584 --> 00:44.210 to the golfer's performance. 00:44.294 --> 00:46.629 That rough, just it's gonna be very hard to judge. 00:46.713 --> 00:49.340 [Rapaport] If the golfer plays like shit, they get paid like shit. 00:49.424 --> 00:52.886 You told me on Tuesday you were gonna make a million dollars this four weeks. 00:52.969 --> 00:54.637 Well, we gotta get after it. 00:54.721 --> 00:57.599 Sometimes, you're a psychologist. Sometimes, you gotta build them up. 00:58.183 --> 01:00.643 The right caddie can break you or make you. 01:02.228 --> 01:05.106 [commentator] One of the all-time seasons. 01:05.190 --> 01:06.941 [commentator 2] Number one in the world. 01:07.025 --> 01:08.193 No one would disagree 01:08.276 --> 01:11.821 that this year has been the season of Scottie Scheffler and Ted Scott. 01:11.905 --> 01:12.864 Hey, Teddy! 01:13.490 --> 01:15.492 [Ted] He's not really thinking about legacy. 01:15.575 --> 01:17.619 It's more like, "If I'm playing the tournament, 01:17.702 --> 01:19.996 I wanna destroy you." And that's what he loves. 01:20.080 --> 01:24.918 [Dethier] What Scottie and Ted have been able to accomplish is historic. 01:25.001 --> 01:27.170 Every other player-caddie combo 01:27.253 --> 01:30.799 is hoping somehow to replicate that success. 01:30.882 --> 01:34.177 My name is Carl Smith. I caddie for Sahith Theegala. 01:35.720 --> 01:37.555 I've been caddying ten years now. 01:37.639 --> 01:40.141 And I've experienced the highest of highs. 01:40.225 --> 01:43.394 [commentator] Sahith Theegala is a winner on the PGA TOUR. 01:43.478 --> 01:45.563 And the lowest of lows. 01:45.647 --> 01:47.565 -[woman] I'm sorry. -It's okay. It's okay. 01:48.274 --> 01:52.237 [Carl] I think the last few years have been preparing himself 01:52.320 --> 01:55.073 to elevate his status in the game even further. 01:55.573 --> 01:57.742 I really believe he can get to number one. 01:58.910 --> 02:01.579 [Rapaport] The question is, does this team have what it takes 02:01.663 --> 02:03.623 to make this a breakout year? 02:05.333 --> 02:07.877 [dramatic music playing] 02:17.262 --> 02:19.264 [gentle music playing] 02:23.309 --> 02:26.062 [Scottie] Don't film me eating the Doritos. My wife will be mad. 02:27.188 --> 02:29.691 [man] How would you describe your guys' relationship? 02:29.774 --> 02:31.901 Me and Teddy's? Difficult. 02:34.571 --> 02:35.572 [Ted] Bromance. 02:36.197 --> 02:37.448 [Scottie chuckles] Bromance. 02:37.532 --> 02:38.616 [Ted chuckles] 02:38.700 --> 02:40.702 -[Scottie] Sure. Sure. -[Ted] Sure. 02:41.995 --> 02:43.663 [Wilson] In the whole sport, 02:43.746 --> 02:46.374 you're not gonna find a more solid relationship 02:46.457 --> 02:48.751 than Scottie Scheffler and Ted Scott. 02:48.835 --> 02:51.504 [Scottie] What do you think, Teddy? Seven iron. 02:52.088 --> 02:53.339 My guess is a seven. 02:53.423 --> 02:55.133 [Wilson] And people may not realize 02:55.216 --> 02:59.846 just how important that relationship has been to Scottie's success. 03:00.430 --> 03:01.472 [crowd] Oh! 03:01.556 --> 03:04.392 [Wilson] Four years ago, Scottie Scheffler wasn't the super Scottie 03:04.475 --> 03:06.144 that we see him as today. 03:06.227 --> 03:07.979 [crowd] Oh! 03:08.062 --> 03:09.814 [Wilson] He really struggled with his putting. 03:09.898 --> 03:13.067 And he actually showed a lot of emotion on the course. 03:13.943 --> 03:15.320 I'm so tired of this, man. 03:15.820 --> 03:17.947 It's such an easy putt. It's such an easy putt. 03:18.031 --> 03:21.409 I don't feel like I hit a bad putt. I can't even hit the freakin' hole. 03:22.452 --> 03:24.537 [Scottie] My mechanics were a bit off, and so it… 03:25.622 --> 03:29.792 At times, I think I was just ingraining the wrong stuff into my putting. 03:30.793 --> 03:34.214 I used to fight anger issues. I used to get too frustrated. 03:34.297 --> 03:35.673 Golf was too important to me. 03:35.757 --> 03:38.259 That's where I placed my identity for a long time. 03:38.343 --> 03:41.471 -[commentator] Don't bend that putter. -[commentator 2] That was extraordinary. 03:41.554 --> 03:44.224 [Scottie] I try not to change much, but I needed to change something. 03:44.933 --> 03:47.644 [commentator] Ted Scott here with his man Bubba Watson. 03:47.727 --> 03:49.646 [Zuël] Ted Scott is an incredible caddie. 03:49.729 --> 03:53.524 He has had a wonderful, storied career with many big names, 03:53.608 --> 03:56.361 including 15 years with Bubba Watson. 03:56.986 --> 04:01.199 They had two Masters Green Jackets, multiple PGA TOUR wins. 04:02.533 --> 04:05.787 In November of 2021, I split with Bubba Watson. 04:06.371 --> 04:08.706 I think Bubba and I had spent so much time together, 04:08.790 --> 04:10.500 we really weren't growing together anymore. 04:10.583 --> 04:13.044 And so I was like, "I just wanna move on and do something else." 04:13.127 --> 04:16.130 And basically, a friend of mine approached me and said, 04:16.214 --> 04:19.175 "You're about to receive a phone call from a really good player." 04:19.259 --> 04:21.219 "This guy's really good, like really good." 04:22.428 --> 04:23.721 I had never really met Scottie 04:23.805 --> 04:27.392 other than the fact that we played with him in the New Orleans tournament. 04:27.475 --> 04:29.769 And I saw that he was kind of feisty, you know? 04:30.645 --> 04:33.773 And so that was one of the questions I actually asked him when he called me. 04:33.856 --> 04:37.110 I said, "I don't know if I wanna work for you, 'cause of your attitude." 04:37.193 --> 04:38.403 I posed that question to him. 04:38.486 --> 04:39.862 He said, "That's a fair question." 04:39.946 --> 04:42.073 "And that's something I'm willing to work on." 04:42.156 --> 04:44.534 All I need is a little hope, and I'll get behind anybody. 04:44.617 --> 04:47.370 So I decided to take the job, and here we are. [chuckles] 04:48.371 --> 04:49.539 [Ted] Man, I'm like… 04:50.039 --> 04:53.209 What's a good analogy for something that's really broken down? 04:53.293 --> 04:54.961 -That's what I'm like. -[Scottie] A caddie? 04:55.044 --> 04:56.296 [Ted chuckles] A caddie. 04:56.379 --> 04:59.632 I'm like a caddie that's been working for 25 years on this tour. 04:59.716 --> 05:02.552 Oh, I have. That's why I'm broken down. [chuckles] 05:02.635 --> 05:04.595 What most of the public thinks about caddies 05:04.679 --> 05:07.515 is they just show up in a parking lot, they grab a heavy bag, 05:07.598 --> 05:09.892 and they go carry it around and get some snacks 05:09.976 --> 05:12.061 and maybe tell a funny joke every now and then. 05:12.145 --> 05:14.605 But there's a lot more to what they provide. 05:15.815 --> 05:17.650 [Dethier] A lot of caddies on the PGA TOUR 05:17.734 --> 05:21.404 were serious competitive players themselves, or they were coaches. 05:21.487 --> 05:25.533 And so they bring a level of expertise to planning out course strategy 05:25.616 --> 05:28.578 or reading greens or picking clubs. 05:28.661 --> 05:30.663 [Ted] You might have a player that's very technical, 05:30.747 --> 05:32.623 and he wants somebody to be looking at his swing. 05:32.707 --> 05:35.418 You might have someone very emotional. Some wanna know the course. 05:35.501 --> 05:38.504 So you're always just trying to figure out what gaps to fill. 05:38.588 --> 05:40.923 [Dethier] Ted Scott had some experience to draw on, 05:41.007 --> 05:42.842 but maybe the most important thing 05:42.925 --> 05:45.428 that he brought to his relationship with Scottie 05:45.511 --> 05:47.138 was an attitude check. 05:48.347 --> 05:50.224 [Ted] I'll take credit for planting the seed, 05:50.308 --> 05:53.519 but that was really a cool thing that Scottie was willing to work on that. 05:53.603 --> 05:55.104 And that was exciting for me. 05:55.188 --> 05:56.731 I was like, "Man, this could be fun." 05:57.690 --> 06:00.693 [commentator] Scottie Scheffler is the king of Bay Hill again. 06:00.777 --> 06:01.694 [applause] 06:01.778 --> 06:06.324 [commentator] Yes, Scottie Scheffler is the 50th Players champion. 06:06.407 --> 06:09.660 Into the night with an amazing par. 06:09.744 --> 06:11.579 ♪ Telling me why I got bit by a spider… ♪ 06:11.662 --> 06:12.497 [commentator] Wow. 06:13.331 --> 06:15.124 ♪ If you want space I'll help you take it home… 06:15.208 --> 06:18.628 Scottie Scheffler has won six times on the PGA TOUR this year, 06:18.711 --> 06:23.299 including his second Green Jacket, his five other top fives. 06:23.383 --> 06:26.260 And just for good measure, he won Olympic gold. 06:26.344 --> 06:27.929 Scottie. [chuckles] 06:28.012 --> 06:30.848 Like, he's doing everything better than everybody. 06:31.516 --> 06:33.976 The thing that Scottie's done for some of these guys, it's like, 06:34.060 --> 06:36.062 yeah, you could play good every week. 06:36.145 --> 06:39.190 It's like there's only one other guy who's played good every week 06:39.774 --> 06:41.192 in… you know what I mean? 06:41.776 --> 06:43.402 [commentator] I don't believe it. 06:43.486 --> 06:46.197 [Rapaport] It's all of a sudden having an impact on other players 06:46.280 --> 06:49.117 that we really haven't seen since Tiger Woods. 06:49.200 --> 06:50.034 [cheering] 06:50.118 --> 06:52.120 [Ted] Go back to Tiger, 2000. 06:52.203 --> 06:55.039 We all like the idea of, like, a superhero. 06:55.581 --> 06:57.834 And so Scottie's having that kind of run this year. 06:58.418 --> 07:00.837 And you see it in the kids and the people 07:00.920 --> 07:02.964 that want selfies and pictures and things like that. 07:03.756 --> 07:06.342 The star is growing at a scary rate. 07:06.426 --> 07:08.094 [commentator] Pure domination. 07:08.177 --> 07:09.554 [chuckles] 07:09.637 --> 07:11.514 The Scott and Scottie Show. 07:13.808 --> 07:14.809 103 from here. 07:18.438 --> 07:19.939 -Thank you. -Hey-o. 07:20.857 --> 07:22.775 [Ted] I don't think it ever really felt real. 07:22.859 --> 07:26.487 As far as being the face of the sport, I… I don't really think much about it. 07:26.571 --> 07:27.613 [Scottie laughs] 07:28.364 --> 07:29.949 -[Ted] Who's that? -It's Meredith. 07:30.491 --> 07:32.368 "My wife!" Hello. 07:32.452 --> 07:35.455 [Scottie] I love competition, I love playing, and I also love going home. 07:35.538 --> 07:38.791 You know, I love my son more than anything in the world. 07:39.417 --> 07:42.587 I don't even really remember what life was like before. It's kind of wild. 07:43.504 --> 07:44.589 He's doing great. 07:44.672 --> 07:47.925 I can sit there and stare, watch him stretch, laugh at him all day. 07:48.426 --> 07:52.597 I think a lot of people could have a baby, and it'd actually slow down their season. 07:52.680 --> 07:54.724 But, uh, he's very well-equipped at that. 07:54.807 --> 07:56.934 He handles that stuff really well, surprisingly. 07:57.810 --> 08:00.479 [Rapaport] This week's TOUR Championship is an opportunity for Scottie 08:00.563 --> 08:02.982 to put a bow on his incredible year. 08:03.065 --> 08:06.402 But this tournament, in particular, has eluded him in years past. 08:07.528 --> 08:10.239 [Zuël] For the last two years, he's come in as the world number one 08:10.323 --> 08:14.160 and has been usurped by Rory McIlroy and Viktor Hovland. 08:14.911 --> 08:18.706 We have this situation with Scottie where perhaps this is his white whale. 08:20.249 --> 08:22.793 [Scottie] Gosh dang it, Teddy. That was supposed to go in. 08:23.669 --> 08:25.671 [suspenseful music playing] 08:26.339 --> 08:28.341 [cheering] 08:28.424 --> 08:30.301 ¿Dónde está mi caddie? 08:33.012 --> 08:34.388 Uh, you need anything, boss? 08:34.472 --> 08:37.725 All good, Ross. Thank you. I kind of want to hit another one. 08:37.808 --> 08:42.813 Sahith Theegala has been a fan favorite since his rookie year on the PGA TOUR. 08:42.897 --> 08:46.317 And this season, he's playing the best golf of his career. 08:46.400 --> 08:47.652 [cheering and applause] 08:47.735 --> 08:49.028 [man] He's really good. 08:49.529 --> 08:51.447 He's had seven top tens, 08:51.531 --> 08:54.784 two solo seconds in signature events. 08:55.284 --> 08:58.788 And it felt more consistent this year. 08:58.871 --> 09:01.874 Sahith Theegala, the field is fucking terrified. 09:01.958 --> 09:04.335 The question now is, does he have the right stuff 09:04.418 --> 09:06.712 to break through and take on that top spot? 09:09.048 --> 09:14.720 So this is a book from the Theegalas after Sahith's first win at Napa. 09:15.596 --> 09:18.474 Fun to see me smiling for once. That's a rarity. 09:19.058 --> 09:24.355 First met Sahith when he was entering high school. 09:24.438 --> 09:26.899 [Sahith] Carl was the assistant coach in Pepperdine. 09:26.983 --> 09:28.359 And I felt like he was there 09:28.442 --> 09:31.237 at every event that I played as a junior golfer. 09:32.697 --> 09:35.199 [Carl] I was recruiting. And I saw him play. 09:35.283 --> 09:38.119 And I was like, "This kid knows how to play golf." 09:40.162 --> 09:43.708 [Sahith] He probably believed in me more than I did in myself back then. 09:43.791 --> 09:46.586 I knew that was somebody that I wanted as one of my coaches. 09:46.669 --> 09:49.589 Unfortunately, that never happened. He never got to coach me at Pepperdine. 09:50.339 --> 09:53.634 I left to start caddying before he got to school. 09:53.718 --> 09:55.720 -Don't be afraid to get it back there. -Yeah. 09:56.304 --> 09:57.888 [reporter] The Pepperdine men's golf team 09:57.972 --> 10:01.350 are the 2017 Southwestern Invitational champions. 10:01.434 --> 10:04.895 Leading the waves in the invitational with Sahith Theegala. 10:04.979 --> 10:08.149 [Carl] And I got a call from the Pepperdine head coach. 10:08.232 --> 10:11.485 And he was like, "Sahith wants you to caddie for him." 10:11.986 --> 10:16.657 What I saw in him at 13, 14 years old, 10:16.741 --> 10:19.285 I honestly think he can be number one in the world. 10:23.164 --> 10:25.207 [woman] She's ready for her close-up. [chuckles] 10:25.291 --> 10:28.377 -[man] Ivy, you're gonna be on TV. -[woman chuckles] 10:28.461 --> 10:30.504 [man] Isn't that crazy? You're gonna be on TV, Ivy. 10:30.588 --> 10:31.672 [chuckles] 10:31.756 --> 10:34.800 She was made for TV. Look how… look how pretty she is. [chuckles] 10:35.635 --> 10:38.846 [Sahith] This year was awesome because I had a really nice regular season. 10:38.929 --> 10:42.099 It's nice to feel I'm in the middle of the pack and try and contend. 10:42.183 --> 10:44.310 [Juju] This picture frame just came in the mail. 10:44.393 --> 10:46.020 And the first thing, Sahith opens it. 10:46.103 --> 10:48.814 He goes, "I got Justin Thomas's signature." 10:48.898 --> 10:50.524 [all laugh] 10:50.608 --> 10:52.902 It's funny. Playing with Jason Day and Padraig… 10:52.985 --> 10:55.112 -Yeah. -We grew up watching these guys. 10:55.196 --> 10:58.115 And now I'm playing against them. It felt kind of, like, awkward. 10:58.199 --> 11:00.284 Like, what am I gonna talk about with these guys? 11:00.368 --> 11:02.995 [Rapaport] It's entirely possible to have a really nice career 11:03.079 --> 11:04.497 in the middle of the pack. 11:04.580 --> 11:07.750 But is that what Sahith wants? I think Sahith wants to be the best. 11:08.668 --> 11:11.420 [Zuël] When we look at a player's PGA TOUR career, 11:11.504 --> 11:14.173 year three seems to be when the magic happens. 11:14.256 --> 11:16.384 [commentator] Ted Scott and Scottie Scheffler. 11:16.467 --> 11:18.886 [Dethier] If you look at Scottie Scheffler's third season, 11:18.969 --> 11:22.056 that's when he won four times, including the Masters. 11:22.682 --> 11:25.768 Now we're getting to the end of Sahith's third season. 11:25.851 --> 11:29.230 And if he really wants to make this a breakout year, 11:29.313 --> 11:30.523 he needs a win. 11:31.565 --> 11:33.818 [Sahith] It's like, "Okay, yes, I'm very happy to be here." 11:33.901 --> 11:35.945 But there's still a lot of, like, bad golf in there. 11:36.028 --> 11:38.114 It's like, "Oh, it's okay. You've made it here." 11:38.197 --> 11:39.782 I'm like, "No, it's not okay." 11:39.865 --> 11:41.784 [Carl] Good tournament or bad tournament, 11:41.867 --> 11:44.161 you always say, "I can get so much better." 11:44.245 --> 11:47.998 -[Sahith] Yeah. -[Carl] That makes you a little different. 11:48.916 --> 11:51.168 Sahith has not been playing great golf recently. 11:51.252 --> 11:53.921 He was tied for 46th at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. 11:54.004 --> 11:55.756 [commentator 2] Back-to-back misses. 11:55.840 --> 11:57.967 [Rapaport] He was dead last at the BMW Championship. 11:58.050 --> 12:00.636 And he's running out of chances to win. 12:01.679 --> 12:04.432 [commentator] It has been a rough week for Sahith Theegala. 12:04.515 --> 12:07.560 [Sahith] Yeah, um… I… I didn't play too well, 12:07.643 --> 12:10.396 but definitely gives me some extra fuel to the fire this week 12:10.479 --> 12:12.022 going into the TOUR Championship. 12:12.106 --> 12:16.444 This is six, the par five. The second shot's like way uphill. 12:17.236 --> 12:19.238 They took one of the bunkers out there. 12:19.947 --> 12:21.073 If we're playing a week, 12:21.157 --> 12:23.325 every year we come here, the course is the same. 12:24.076 --> 12:25.786 I don't have a ton of homework to do. 12:25.870 --> 12:28.914 If we go to a Major, a place we haven't played in five years or ten years 12:28.998 --> 12:32.293 or we've never been to, I'm gonna see it as many times as I can. 12:32.376 --> 12:35.337 My job is to know the golf course. 12:35.421 --> 12:37.882 Um, you said they made some changes to the course? 12:37.965 --> 12:41.552 Yeah, comparing it to my yardage book from two years ago, 12:41.635 --> 12:43.512 it's like they've changed every hole. 12:43.596 --> 12:46.223 I'm like, "I'm not even sure what hole this is." 12:46.307 --> 12:49.310 It is always kind of nice knowing no one's gonna have an advantage 12:49.393 --> 12:52.897 of, like, "I've made the TOUR Championship the last however many years." 12:52.980 --> 12:54.440 It's drastically different. 12:55.149 --> 12:56.942 I got my book for the week. 12:57.860 --> 12:59.528 Always got my range finder. 13:00.529 --> 13:02.156 Got my sunscreen. Need that. 13:02.948 --> 13:07.453 The TOUR Championship is one of the most important tournaments of the year 13:07.536 --> 13:10.998 because the opportunity here is massive. 13:11.081 --> 13:13.125 [woman] Like 25-million-dollar massive? 13:13.959 --> 13:14.960 Yeah. 13:15.044 --> 13:16.712 [suspenseful music playing] 13:16.795 --> 13:20.674 [commentator] The season-long race comes down to this week and this place. 13:20.758 --> 13:23.135 The East Lake Golf Club, a familiar place 13:23.219 --> 13:25.429 that now brings a whole new challenge. 13:25.513 --> 13:29.600 We're thrilled to be back in Atlanta to crown our FedEx Cup champion. 13:30.184 --> 13:34.396 I am excited for the world to see this course restoration. 13:35.064 --> 13:38.609 Man, they really just opened up that right side, haven't they? 13:39.401 --> 13:41.654 [commentator] Even though the greens are in similar spots, 13:41.737 --> 13:45.032 it's not remotely close to what they're used to playing at East Lake. 13:45.115 --> 13:49.036 I think this is my fifth year here. It's literally not the same golf course. 13:50.037 --> 13:52.414 [commentator] Number one coming in. He's held that position 13:52.498 --> 13:55.167 throughout much of the FedEx Cup season. 13:55.251 --> 13:57.127 [commentator 2] The advantage Scheffler will have 13:57.211 --> 14:00.339 is he and Ted Scott, his caddie, know how to pick apart a golf course. 14:00.422 --> 14:02.383 And I think that's gonna be a big benefit. 14:03.467 --> 14:07.471 [commentator 3] The 30 best in 2024 on the PGA TOUR, they are here. 14:07.555 --> 14:12.601 Everybody vying to put their name on the FedEx Cup trophy. 14:20.776 --> 14:22.695 Looks like someone already had one. 14:27.825 --> 14:29.577 [woman] So who are you staying with? 14:30.077 --> 14:34.790 Um, with Ted Scott and John Limanti and Brandon Parsons. 14:36.917 --> 14:39.753 I think John's still asleep. Teddy was out early. 14:41.297 --> 14:42.715 So luxurious. 14:43.465 --> 14:45.551 We just live out of a suitcase. 14:46.135 --> 14:48.929 I don't think I've ever unpacked it once on the road, ever. 14:49.597 --> 14:50.723 [Joel] I love the caddies. 14:50.806 --> 14:53.976 I love hanging out with them. They have a great perspective on life. 14:54.059 --> 14:56.020 They're putting in the time and effort, traveling. 14:56.103 --> 14:59.064 They're staying in hotels. They're staying in houses together. 14:59.148 --> 15:02.151 Let's see if they have, like, to-go cups or something. 15:02.234 --> 15:06.155 [Joel] It's not easy when your paycheck rides on someone else hitting a golf ball. 15:06.655 --> 15:09.033 They go through the same emotions that we go through. 15:09.116 --> 15:10.492 [Carl] Nope, out of luck. 15:11.452 --> 15:13.621 Being on the road, it is lonely. 15:14.121 --> 15:15.414 I've missed a lot of things. 15:15.497 --> 15:19.460 I've missed a lot of birthdays, a lot of friends' weddings. 15:19.960 --> 15:22.713 You need a nice support system around you 15:22.796 --> 15:25.257 'cause if not, I think you just go mental. 15:25.799 --> 15:28.135 Okay, let's see if I can do this without burning my mouth. 15:30.346 --> 15:31.472 Mm. 15:31.555 --> 15:32.931 No, still a little hot. 15:36.185 --> 15:39.271 [Sahith] I haven't had a great couple weeks, but I think Carl does a good job 15:39.355 --> 15:40.856 of kind of keeping me focused. 15:41.357 --> 15:44.109 I feel like I'm kind of due for a good week, in a way. 15:44.944 --> 15:49.740 [Carl] I think Sahith's best asset is the ability to move on from stuff. 15:49.823 --> 15:55.204 But Sahith specifically does not like a rah-rah cheerleader. 15:55.287 --> 15:57.081 Like, that doesn't fire him up. 15:57.164 --> 16:00.584 I know when he plays bad, it fires him up, that's for sure. 16:01.251 --> 16:03.212 [indistinct chatter] 16:03.295 --> 16:04.755 [quiet pop music playing] 16:04.838 --> 16:06.966 -You're the best roommate ever. -Thanks, buddy. 16:07.049 --> 16:08.550 -Are you even there? -[Ted] Yeah. 16:08.634 --> 16:09.843 -Are you sure? -Yeah, dude. 16:09.927 --> 16:13.097 -I've only seen you there one time. -You've seen me. I just let you in. 16:13.180 --> 16:15.432 I think that's about as far as we got. 16:15.516 --> 16:16.642 [Ted chuckles] 16:20.729 --> 16:24.858 I do this every week, even if I've been to the course ten times. 16:24.942 --> 16:28.946 You and your yardage book, for me, there's nothing better. 16:30.030 --> 16:33.534 Some just assume we show up, and our guys are so good 16:33.617 --> 16:36.996 that we just tell them where to hit it, or they know where to hit it, 16:37.079 --> 16:40.958 but there's prep work on where to go, where not to go. 16:41.041 --> 16:42.793 [Carl] So I made a note, 16:42.876 --> 16:45.546 drawing in the basic undulation of the green. 16:45.629 --> 16:48.590 Put a red X just because if you went long there, 16:48.674 --> 16:51.176 you would have no chance to that back left pin. 16:51.677 --> 16:53.721 I'm gonna check out these bunkers too. 16:54.304 --> 16:56.598 [woman] Do you caddies kind of stick together, then? 16:56.682 --> 16:58.517 I would say, for the most part, yeah. 16:58.600 --> 17:01.311 But at the end of the day, everyone wants to win. 17:01.812 --> 17:03.564 [upbeat music playing] 17:03.647 --> 17:05.816 [Rapaport] The top 30 players in the FedEx Cup standings 17:05.899 --> 17:07.526 qualify for the TOUR Championship. 17:07.609 --> 17:10.946 And first place comes with a 25-million-dollar payday. 17:11.822 --> 17:14.533 Now, the TOUR Championship has a special set of rules. 17:15.033 --> 17:18.412 The number one player starts at the top of the leaderboard at 10 under par. 17:18.495 --> 17:20.372 The number two player starts at 8 under. 17:20.456 --> 17:22.666 And the stroke advantage decreases from there. 17:23.167 --> 17:25.878 To no surprise, the person sitting at the top of the leaderboard 17:25.961 --> 17:27.212 is Scottie Scheffler. 17:28.797 --> 17:31.425 I'm gonna come to Dallas National with my new move. 17:31.508 --> 17:33.635 Right here, get low, I guess, and then rotate. 17:33.719 --> 17:34.762 No, but us… 17:34.845 --> 17:36.013 I can beat you at Dallas. 17:36.096 --> 17:38.265 I got four months to get my seven-stroke handicap down. 17:38.348 --> 17:40.934 [Scottie] You're supposed to dream at night, not during the day. 17:41.018 --> 17:42.311 My seven-stroke handicap. 17:42.811 --> 17:46.774 [Sahith] Scottie is on one of the most historic runs ever in golf. 17:46.857 --> 17:50.819 The beauty of the game is it feels like if you have a great day and he doesn't, 17:50.903 --> 17:53.238 you still feel like you could beat him that day. 17:53.322 --> 17:55.783 But the problem is, he doesn't have very many bad days. 17:55.866 --> 17:58.869 Your guy is so good, and he kinda hasn't played as good. 17:58.952 --> 18:02.039 He should play good… He's like better than everybody. 18:02.539 --> 18:03.540 I think… 18:05.042 --> 18:09.421 I think he's figuring it out a little bit as far as the pacing himself. 18:09.505 --> 18:10.422 Yeah. 18:10.506 --> 18:12.216 Yeah. Um… 18:12.299 --> 18:16.011 'Cause we've had a couple little nagging things here and there. 18:16.512 --> 18:18.430 So I think he's figuring it out. 18:18.514 --> 18:20.891 [Sahith] It's funny. The relationship between me and Carl, 18:20.974 --> 18:24.186 now that I'm on the PGA TOUR, has really not changed too much. 18:25.187 --> 18:27.397 I'm very lucky and thankful for our friendship. 18:27.481 --> 18:31.110 And I know that's not the most common thing out on tour 18:31.193 --> 18:32.277 because it's cutthroat. 18:32.361 --> 18:34.113 When it comes down to it, a job's a job. 18:34.196 --> 18:36.240 And you know, you can be best friends with somebody, 18:36.323 --> 18:39.910 but if you feel like they're not doing the job to the best of their ability 18:39.993 --> 18:42.913 and it's costing you, then you've got to get rid of that person 18:42.996 --> 18:43.914 and get a new guy. 18:43.997 --> 18:45.958 But Carl's one of the hardest workers I know. 18:46.041 --> 18:49.169 And he doesn't take his job for granted. Doesn't take our friendship for granted. 18:49.253 --> 18:51.755 And I don't either. Or I don't try to, at least. 18:51.839 --> 18:55.592 There have been times where, maybe when things aren't going as well, 18:55.676 --> 18:57.845 I get a little too loose out there and just start joking. 18:57.928 --> 18:59.763 But, honestly, for the most part, 18:59.847 --> 19:03.142 there's not really any disadvantage of… of being too close. 19:06.311 --> 19:08.147 [man] Look at Teddy. He looks like an old man, 19:08.230 --> 19:11.775 wrapped up in a towel with his shower flip-flops on. 19:11.859 --> 19:12.818 It's cold, man. 19:13.485 --> 19:16.155 [man] It's good for you. We're about to go out into the sauna. 19:16.238 --> 19:20.284 Cold, hot, cold, hot. Run outside and back inside. 19:20.909 --> 19:22.536 -See you, Teddy. -[Ted] Have a good day. 19:22.619 --> 19:25.122 [Scott] Have a good one, pal. Not too good, though. 19:27.249 --> 19:29.710 [Carl] We're going with number threes and fours today. 19:29.793 --> 19:31.879 We heard Scottie Scheffler uses high numbers, 19:31.962 --> 19:33.964 so he's pretty good, I figure… 19:35.549 --> 19:38.093 -Maybe just do whatever he's doing. -[Scottie chuckles] 19:38.177 --> 19:40.804 -Hey, we were just talking about you. -[Scottie] Oh yeah? 19:40.888 --> 19:42.014 All good things, I'm sure. 19:42.097 --> 19:43.974 We said, uh… 19:44.057 --> 19:47.769 we said we heard you play high numbers, so we just copy whatever Scottie does. 19:47.853 --> 19:52.065 'Cause the ones and twos end up going in the giveaway bin. 19:52.691 --> 19:54.526 [Scottie] I like it!

They bought every T-shirt. 20:03.493 --> 20:06.288 Just to… you know, just to give motivation for my son, you know? 20:06.371 --> 20:08.332 So he'll be pumped up. [chuckles] 20:15.005 --> 20:16.006 [commentator] Wow. 20:17.090 --> 20:18.508 [commentator 2] A tough putt. 20:19.384 --> 20:23.055 Theegala looking for some momentum here on Thursday. 20:24.640 --> 20:28.310 [commentator] Now on the first tee, please welcome Scottie Scheffler. 20:28.393 --> 20:30.687 [cheering] 20:32.773 --> 20:34.524 [commentator] Scottie looking anxiously at it. 20:34.608 --> 20:35.609 Needs a kick. 20:36.318 --> 20:38.779 Oh, that's gonna be blocked out over there. 20:39.529 --> 20:43.075 -Hey, guys, can you stand still, please? -[Ted] Hold up.

Man, what a day. 22:07.367 --> 22:10.245 How about this?

I like those. 24:22.085 --> 24:23.962 [Sahith] It's gonna be hard to catch Scottie. 24:24.045 --> 24:26.756 But, you know, we've seen guys give him a run for his money. 24:26.840 --> 24:29.009 You don't want to put him on too much of a pedestal. 24:29.676 --> 24:32.846 My mental game is probably the strongest part of my golf game, to be honest, 24:32.929 --> 24:37.100 but need to sack up and prove it to myself that, you know, I do belong there. 24:38.560 --> 24:40.812 [solemn music playing] 24:41.605 --> 24:45.275 [commentator] It's a 90-degree sticky Saturday at East Lake Golf Club. 24:45.358 --> 24:46.610 Two rounds remain. 24:47.819 --> 24:48.945 [Sahith] Good morning, guys. 24:50.030 --> 24:51.990 [suspenseful music playing] 24:56.369 --> 24:59.164 [commentator] And that first bounce went a little harder than he thought. 24:59.748 --> 25:02.792 This is a big putt for momentum early in the round. 25:07.756 --> 25:10.091 Oh, he made a tour around the edge. 25:10.175 --> 25:13.553 Scottie's third shot did not check up the way he expected. 25:14.596 --> 25:16.765 Up on the green, Sahith Theegala. 25:17.891 --> 25:19.518 At the second for birdie. 25:23.021 --> 25:25.857 He got it there and had it read perfectly. 25:25.941 --> 25:30.237 A rare two at the second for Sahith. 25:30.820 --> 25:33.532 Sahith Theegala to stay at 13 under. 25:36.159 --> 25:39.079 [Rapaport] Sahith's off to a solid start.

And you're like, "What's going on here?" 25:53.301 --> 25:58.598 Uh, I was near a lip, and on my backswing, I noticed I clipped a piece of sand. 25:59.432 --> 26:03.061 [commentator 2] Sahith, he feels that he touched the sand on his last hole 26:03.144 --> 26:05.313 when he was taking his backswing. 26:05.397 --> 26:09.609 Now, it is a penalty if you touch the sand while your ball is in the bunker. 26:09.693 --> 26:11.945 So it's gonna be a two-shot penalty for him. 26:12.779 --> 26:14.656 [Dethier] Nobody else sees the sand move. 26:14.739 --> 26:18.285 Nobody in person, nobody up close, nobody watching on TV. 26:18.868 --> 26:21.538 Even when the 4K cameras zoom in, 26:21.621 --> 26:24.624 you can't tell for sure that any sand moves. 26:25.667 --> 26:29.504 -[commentator 3] I don't see much there. -[commentator] Clearly above the ball. 26:29.588 --> 26:32.257 [commentator 3] I'd be arguing with Deuce again when I got done. 26:32.340 --> 26:33.717 "Give me my two shots back." 26:35.010 --> 26:36.303 -Okay. -[commentator] That stinks. 26:36.386 --> 26:38.638 [commentator 3] You got a good round, and all of a sudden, 26:38.722 --> 26:41.725 you've gone from 13 to 11 under, just like that. 26:42.309 --> 26:45.020 [commentator] Nine back now of Scheffler. 26:47.897 --> 26:50.984 [Zuël] There has been many greats of the game of golf in the past 26:51.067 --> 26:54.904 who have been in similar situations and have not done the same. 26:54.988 --> 26:58.241 To be able to do that with millions on the line, 26:58.742 --> 27:01.453 that just shows what kind of a guy Sahith Theegala is. 27:01.536 --> 27:07.000 But for him, you just feel heartbroken that it's happened now of all times. 27:09.169 --> 27:12.547 [Sahith] I come across as pretty easygoing and let stuff slip off my shoulders, 27:12.630 --> 27:14.924 but inwardly, I'm really, really competitive. 27:15.842 --> 27:16.926 I hate losing. 27:17.010 --> 27:19.304 It bothers the hell out of me when I hit a shitty shot 27:19.387 --> 27:21.514 or… make a stupid mistake. 27:22.724 --> 27:25.101 [Carl] As far as the penalty, yeah, I mean, it's cost us, 27:25.185 --> 27:27.771 but maybe adds a little more fuel to the fire. 27:27.854 --> 27:29.648 And we're just gonna keep playing hard. 27:29.731 --> 27:31.816 [tense music playing] 27:32.442 --> 27:33.818 [commentator 2] How about Theegala? 27:34.736 --> 27:36.071 -[commentator] Oh yeah. -[man] Wow. 27:36.154 --> 27:38.406 -[commentator 2] So well judged. -[commentator] So good. 27:38.490 --> 27:41.326 Theegala's got a chance to get into that tie for fourth. 27:41.868 --> 27:42.702 Yes. 27:43.370 --> 27:44.496 Theegala. 27:44.996 --> 27:46.331 For birdie. 27:49.125 --> 27:52.796 Yeah, Sahith moving it to 13 under. 27:53.672 --> 27:55.674 [suspenseful music playing] 27:56.216 --> 27:58.843 -[commentator] They're all going in at 15. -[commentator 2] For twos. 27:59.344 --> 28:01.262 [commentator] And Theegala moving up the board. 28:05.725 --> 28:08.395 He is having himself some second nine. 28:08.478 --> 28:10.313 [commentator 2] A shame, that two-stroke penalty 28:10.397 --> 28:12.399 of him grounding his club at the third hole. 28:12.482 --> 28:15.276 -He'd be having the round of the day. -[commentator] What a day, anyway. 28:15.360 --> 28:17.737 [man] Mr. Theegala, you did the right thing today. 28:18.738 --> 28:20.031 [commentator] Look at Scheffler. 28:20.115 --> 28:23.368 For par, and this putt, Bones, some 24 feet. 28:23.451 --> 28:25.578 [Bones] I think this one's got a great chance. 28:29.749 --> 28:31.918 [commentator] Well, Bones, you called it. 28:32.001 --> 28:35.672 [Bones] A bit of a theme this week.

How about five in a row to finish the day? 29:05.827 --> 29:10.039 [Bones] How about Theegala coming home here after calling the penalty on himself? 29:10.832 --> 29:14.669 Fighting his way back as they all chase this man. Number one. 29:14.753 --> 29:16.546 [commentator] The leader, Scheffler. 29:18.965 --> 29:20.800 [Sahith] As a golfer, you have this intuition. 29:20.884 --> 29:25.346 And I swear, when I took that club back, I thought I saw some grains of sand move. 29:25.430 --> 29:28.933 Um, and I… and I stand by it. I mean, it's an unfortunate rule. 29:29.017 --> 29:32.228 Um, two shots seems like a lot for a few grains of sand moving, 29:32.312 --> 29:35.064 but there's nothing else to do but just take it on the chin. 29:35.148 --> 29:38.026 And those two shots, just try to get those two back. 29:38.109 --> 29:40.403 [reporter] Would you sleep badly if you hadn't called it? 29:40.987 --> 29:44.491 Oh, I wouldn't be able to sleep 'cause it was sitting in my mind, right? 29:44.574 --> 29:47.035 If I went back after the round, looked that up, 29:47.118 --> 29:50.872 found out that it was a two-shot penalty, I'd be DQ'd right now. 29:50.955 --> 29:53.625 -It's all good. -Somebody would have saw it on TV. 29:53.708 --> 29:55.084 Yeah.

So it can happen fast. 31:15.248 --> 31:18.501 Scottie's gotta stay in the present and keep doing what he's been doing. 31:18.585 --> 31:21.170 [commentator] Up ahead to three. Theegala on the tee. 31:23.923 --> 31:24.799 Huge now. 31:25.383 --> 31:26.593 That's a nice approach. 31:26.676 --> 31:29.137 This is the hole he had the penalty on yesterday. 31:30.430 --> 31:32.932 Theegala to get it to 18 under. 31:34.475 --> 31:35.518 And does. 31:35.602 --> 31:36.686 [cheering and applause] 31:36.769 --> 31:39.439 Gonna have to make a whole lot more of those here 31:39.522 --> 31:42.775 to pose any kind of threat to the number one player in the world. 31:42.859 --> 31:45.528 [commentator 2] Scheffler wastes no time.
