golf Central on YouTube is brought to you by the new Chrome tour golf ball from Callaway there quite a diverse scorecard for Scotty Sheffer you had couple of Bogies or triple bogey but you also had six birdies how would you describe that round today um I felt like I played pretty good um outside of one poor swing on number nine that got a horrible break after that you know it was a shot that other hole just being the left rough and there it hit a tree and went out of bounds so uh really tough break there but did a good job resetting and bouncing back you know I had the nice Birdie on 10 and 12 and um did a good job kind of staying in the round today when you have kind of a shocky moment like you did on nine how do you reset what do you tell yourself well I mean I hadn’t really hit many shots offline the whole day until that one and so and like I said it was a slight pull it wasn’t anything drastic and just got a bad break and you know Teddy told me you know you’re still swinging it great just keep doing what you’re doing and um you know it was a nice bounce back there on the next how difficult was this course today yeah really challenging you know with the winds being up and How firm the greens get um they’re definitely getting faster too which I think makes it more challenging as well and so I think it’s only going to get tougher as the as the round goes on tomorrow as well yeah what do you do tomorrow if it gets tougher is it same thing or do you maybe be a little less risky no I mean I think you still got to play the course the right way this is one of those places where there’s certain holes where you just got to step up and hit a great shot um there’s a lot of spots out there where if you play too conservative you can get you know into some pretty tough spots pretty quick and so just do your best to execute and um when you need to just really hit great shots finally you started this day with a three shot lead you’re ended with a four shot Le lead now tomorrow opportunity to win yet again what do you hope to be committed to yeah just my shots and um you know like I said the golf course think it’s going to get tougher the greens are going to get firmer I’d assume the fairways are going to get firmer as well and so um should be another tough day out there and uh looking forward to the challenge appreciate we’ll see you tomorrow all right thanks C how’s it kind of characterize the round today uh I mean really steady really solid um you know it was a bad two shots on on my second and third shot on the second hole but overall I mean I I hit hit it where I needed to made take took advantage um of the on I did hit close and made a few putts and uh you know came out B you free which I’m really really happy what was maybe the kind of the difference between yesterday’s round to today’s round yesterday I mean obviously it was blowing more but I I just got impatient I was rushing a lot of shots towards the end and just you know I was trying to time it up in such a small little window that instead of feeling the shot you know I just used my head and and that’s not that’s never good for me you know I have to feel it out and uh kind of trust my gut and you know really really made sure I stayed patient with that today is there something you recognize after the round you sit down and talk to your cat you say you know what happened or I mean no I I knew it I knew it once I got through 17 yesterday I mean it it was a bad bunker shot and that was just trying to get too pretty with it and um but I mean after I walked off 18 and you know thankfully I made par yesterday on 18 um I just knew like I just had to stay patient and just trust myself I mean Rick’s Rick’s been out here all week so just we talked this morning and it was a 30 second talk because the swing still feels good I just never got in a rhythm of of feeling out the golf shot you know you can get so caught up in numbers and and you know this makes sense this doesn’t make sense but if you can’t feel the shot it doesn’t matter you know you’re never going to execute that great shot you know a handful of times do you feel maybe up for yesterday you didn’t but now you must feel that at least you’re in touch now yeah I mean look Scotty’s not I don’t expect Scotty to fall back I mean the wind’s definitely in a different kind of Direction the last few holes and what we expected and what we thought so that makes kind of 17 18 a little bit tougher um but look I mean I’m still going to have to go out and shoot a really good really good score tomorrow but you know this this course bites you know you might look at some of these holes as birdie opportunities but you missed the Fairway you’re going to try and save par um and I think the wins might be up a little bit more tomorrow with the same win we got yesterday so it’s going to play tough you’ve talked a lot about like you said Rick’s been here this week you guys you’ve talked about him more sometimes just an ear that he kind of has for you has that kind of been more what it’s been this week more than maybe technical stuff that you’re working on yeah it’s it’s not a lot of technical stuff a lot of it has just been talking through it going through the process thinking through things um and obviously it’s been it’s been very very helpful kind of over this past couple months what have you liked most about what you’ve done this week um to be honest I’ve just kind of continued what I’ve what I’ve been doing um I think I’ve played a little Messier this week than I have um say at Colonial and at the PGA um I’ve made I’ve made too many mistakes but I’ve also been able to rebound from that and not get away from myself um if I had six more holes yesterday after 17 it could have been bad thankfully I only had one and I got out of there um and I was able to regroup and and you just that’s golf right you have to be able to regroup I just thought yesterday I just got in this little rut on the back nine where you know I felt like I hit a good shot wasn’t doing this wasn’t doing that but it’s because I I wasn’t feeling out the shots I was just playing numbers in my head trying to do this math equation instead of actually being you know an artist and playing shots anything else great thanks so much col all right actually Colin I I did have a question Colin uh obviously you made a push today um you were in this position last year and then what was it your your back gave out on you what do you think you need to do between today and tomorrow to to Really put yourself in position as far as tomorrow is concerned I mean I’ve got to go out and put out a round like I did today um like I said Scotty Scotty’s not really coming backwards and you know I’ve got to play some steady golf that doesn’t mean I got to press I mean look if I shoot four and tomorrow I think I’m going to be pretty happy um but you know you just kind of play it through the year and and start off on whole one have a have a game plan and see how many shots you can execute um on a Sunday when you know you’re roughly within a handful of shots well what was it last year like I mean with the back why do you think you had some of the issues that you had between your third and it was warming up in the gym it was this one Movement we did something that I’ve kind of we’ve all taken care of so I know what to do what not to do what to watch and go on from there Ro how would you kind of assess the round today uh just sort of trying to hang in there uh just sort of like the last couple of days as well coures uh obviously playing really tough you know this the scores suggest that it’s very hard to to shoot any you know it’s hard to get it going hard to shoot anything in the 60s really you know there’s a couple of 60 hits like there which were really good scores but yeah I just tried to hang in there and and battle and um try to keep it our own par which I which I sort of did what was the main uh thing was it the greens being firm the wind uh the wind again um greens are getting a little firmer some tough whole locations uh yeah just basically all of it it’s it’s a it’s it’s just it’s a it’s a very tough golf course as the wall rolls 15 Rory can uh obviously you were on a call yesterday can you just assess the tenor of the discussions and what your thoughts are coming out of them yeah um very productive um very constructive um very collaborative I think there are probably three words that I would use to describe it uh yeah it was it it was really good um definitely things are are heading in the right direction a lot of progress was made um can’t really say much more than that but it was it was really positive did you say anything I did yeah well you mentioned you might just keep quiet yeah the mute button was turned off a couple of times to chime in how long were you on that call um so the the meeting with with piff was three hours um but then the prep call before that was an hour and a half so probably like four and a half hours way to warm up for your next yeah it was great would would you say that uh going in you were more you were surprised with the progress coming out um I would say um maybe not surprised but maybe more encouraged um you know I think there a lot of progress had sort of been made um but yeah definitely encouraged yeah those those three calls a week that there that you had mentioned the other day do you think that really actually puts everything together and sets everything up for what happened um in terms of the in terms of um the the deal like the financials and the Le and all that I think more that was those three calls a week were more to do with like their investment committee and and you know SSG and you know so that was that was more that’s what those calls were um but I think last night was more you know talking about the future of the game and the vision and um you know that was where you know I thought you know there was a lot of progress that was [Music] made okay
