Scottie Scheffler will eventually reach double-digit majors

If everything stays like, you know, if he stays healthy and plays for 15 more years, like it does feel like he will be in that double digit majors territory.

Scheffler has three majors currently in the episode's timeline. Reaching ten is a very high bar that only two players have ever hit.

Tiger Woods definitely used HGH to come back from his injuries

Tiger If you ever wanna come on the podcast... did Tiger ever do do steroids? You think I Why doesn't it get talked about though? ... He definitely, it's just out of respect for him. Is it, is it deference? He definitely used it to come back from stuff for sure. ... I think he without a doubt a hundred percent used HGH to come back from injuries.

This has never been proven or admitted by Tiger Woods.

The 2024 Masters will have an asterisk because Taylor Gooch wasn't invited

Brooks' teammate on Smash Taylor Gooch was interviewed... and he said he's going to be an asterisk. It's just a reality. Taylor Gooch will always remember as the masters that didn't have Taylor Gooch.

The 2024 Masters was completed and Scottie Scheffler won. History generally does not view it with an asterisk due to Gooch's absence.

Charlie Woods is going to completely transform the game of golf

I think when all is said and done, Charlie Woods is gonna be the guy that completely transforms golf. Agreed. Yeah. He's gonna break the, break the mold.

Charlie Woods is still a teenager; this will take a decade or more to resolve.

Tiger Woods' father Charlie is gonna start his own golf league. A professional golf league. Outside. That's why he has him a commenting.

Brooks Koepka will catch Tiger Woods's major record

Brooks is 10 away from Tiger. I'm gonna be the first to say it. Brooks can catch Tiger Woods's major record.

Tiger has 15 majors; Brooks has 5. Brooks would need 10 more to tie, which is statistically improbable for a player in his 30s.

You shouldn't be able to win a Major while wearing braces

Not to teeth shame, but I don't think you should be able to win the US Open with braces... I'm happy that he's getting his teeth fixed... but in the moment the take was, this is bullshit. Take his trophy away.

There are no rules against dental hardware in golf.

Brooks Koepka would have won the PGA Championship by 15 strokes if his knee was healthy

[Brooks Koepka's] knee is hurting him, and he wasn't able to get all the way low to read putts, and the putter is what kind of killed him today and this weekend. So Ipso facto, he probably would have won this tournament by 15 strokes if his knee was okay.

Hot TakeGolfFireSarcastic
Koepka finished tied for second, two strokes behind Mickelson. There is no way to verify he would have won by 15 strokes.

The deer seen on the US Open broadcast are fake and being let loose from a truck

Those are fake deer... I'm saying there's a guy. I'm saying a guy's standing on the beach with a big fucking truck of deer and just letting them loose. I don't mind that, actually.

The deer at Pebble Beach are real, though networks are known for staging scenic shots.

I guarantee I will win the career Grand Slam

At what point in your career do you think you'll have all four majors? Guarantee it. I'm trying to figure out when the next time we play St. Andrews because I will win one at St. Andrews. I know that.

As of late 2024, Koepka has won 5 majors (3 PGAs, 2 US Opens) but has not yet won the Masters or The Open, leaving him short of the Grand Slam.

Jim 'Bones' Mackay was Phil Mickelson's personal bookie

Phil Mickelson and his caddy, Bones... they are splitting up. I mean, we all know why, right? Two reasons. One, Phil didn't go to the U.S. Open... and two, Bones was probably Phil's bookie, and Phil probably can't gamble anymore.

Hot TakeGolfFireSarcastic
There is no factual evidence Mackay was Mickelson's bookie, though Mickelson's significant gambling debts were later confirmed by biographers.

Tiger Woods is actually getting hair transplant surgery or steroids, not back surgery

Tiger had a fourth back surgery. I have a stay woke on that... I think he's actually getting hair transplant surgery and he's calling it back surgery... Or steroids. He's getting a steroid implanted in his body.

Hot TakeGolfFireSarcastic
Tiger Woods underwent a posterior lumbar interbody fusion, a legitimate medical procedure for his back.

Tiger Woods will never win another major championship

I'm firmly in the Tiger will never win another Masters or major championship in his life. And I've said that for like four or five years now. I just don't, your body can only take so many steroids before you become immune to them.

Tiger Woods famously won the Masters in 2019, proving this prediction wrong.
