Phil Mickelson has a legit chance to win the Masters this week

I think Phil's got a chance. Oh I think Phil has a legit chance this week. He's been playing some solid golf and kind of going back to like what plays well here is a great iron player and somebody that's excellent around the Greens. I think Phil, he finds himself in contention it feels like every two years. So I think Phil, in terms of extreme long shots, I'm a big fan of his number this week.

Phil Mickelson did not contend at the 2025 Masters. Rory McIlroy won the tournament in a playoff against Justin Rose.

Houston was uncomfortable not playing from behind in the title game

I think that Houston was uncomfortable not playing from behind. I feel like Houston had had to lead the whole game and they were like, wait, we're, we're usually the ones that are, that are coming back at the last minute.

This is a subjective psychological assessment of the team's performance.

Will Richard was the real player of the game for Florida in the National Championship

Walter Clayton got player of the tournament player of the Final Four, which he deserved... But Will Richard was the player of the game for this game. And it was him keeping them afloat in the first half with his threes. And then if you look at the final possession, his on-ball defense in the final possession is where like all the timing for Houston got screwed up.

Will Richard had 11 points and played key defense, though Clayton's counting stats were higher; Richard's impact was indeed vital.

Todd Golden's technical foul was the most strategic in history

Todd Golden probably deserves credit... his technical was maybe the most strategic technical of all time. Because after his technical foul, which was of I think like three or four minutes into the second half, the fouls went 13 to three on Houston.

The stat shift is verifiable, but the 'strategic' intent is subjective. Florida did win the title.

Scotty Scheffler is more likely to win the PGA by 10 than finish outside the top 10

I think there's a better chance Scotty [Scheffler] wins by 10 than he doesn't finish in the top 10. I think this is a great opportunity for Scotty to kind of go back to back at the PGA.

The PGA Championship 2026 concluded on May 17, 2026. As of the latest available information before the final round concluded, Scottie Scheffler was in a tie for 23rd place and five shots off the lead. The final results of the tournament, including Scottie Scheffler's definitive finishing position and the winning margin, are not yet available to verify the prediction.

I think [Brooks Koepka] is gonna be in contention here. I think it's a great Brooks Koepka golf course. He's leading the PGA tour this season in Iron Play. ... I think Brooks is positioning himself to get really a chance to win either this PGA or or win it at Shinnecock.
