This comp, in @KylePorterCBS’s newsletter, stopped me in my tracks. The game, the discourse, the demeanor, the resume comparison with more flamboyant contemporaries, all of it.
Absolutely no rush here, guys.

Do you have to play 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵 golf to compete with Scottie Scheffler? 👀 @SmylieKaufman10 interviewed @JustinThomas34 for this week's @thesmylieshow and his answer was...(spoiler: basically, yes) #PGA #PGATour #podcast @charliehulme
I am exasperated at the inability of some people to read the tone and context here. He's not being serious! He's not talking about himself!

Well I think that sums it up
I see a lot of people on this app are confused about ... 1. How the Tour equity distribution was calculated. 2. JT's career. or 3. Both.
Continually entertained by @PasonJage's graphics in the Normal Sporter. normalsport.com/newsletter
A perfect description of Scottie Scheffler from @KylePorterCBS . The World Number One is special is so many ways.
I hear you, but I think what Scottie is doing right now is actually being a bit underrated. If this was Tiger, Rory or Spieth people would be absolutely losing their minds.

Among the current top 150 golfers on @DataGolf, Scheffler is 69th in putting since January 1. Gaining not even a shot per tournament with his putter. Barely above average. He's won four times and has seven top five finishes. Insane stuff.
I don't believe Scottie is the best player since Tiger's greatest run of dominance ended (around 2008-2010). Not yet anyway. What I do believe is that among the handful of players who are in that best-since-Tiger conversation -- DJ, Rory, Rahm, Spieth, Brooks, JT, Day, Phil etc.…
We're in the "no offense to Russ Cochran" portion of the PGA Tour schedule.

New @DataGolf stats just dropped. Here are the tee to green numbers since Jan. 1 (min. 20 measured rounds). 1. Scheffler: 3.4 SG per round 2. Schauffele: 2.0 3. Matsuyama: 1.8 4. Si Woo Kim: 1.7 5. Thomas: 1.6 😂
2024 PGA Tour earnings. $19M -- Scottie $18M $17M $16M $15M $14M $13M $12M $11M $10M $9M -- Wyndham $8M $7M -- Sahith, Ludvig $6M -- Hideki, Xander $5M -- Kirk $4M -- Pavon, Harmon, Zalatoris $3M -- Cantlay, Morikawa, Homa, JT and 10 others

@KylePorterCBS @arcinternet Oh! Let’s gooooo
@KylePorterCBS This list is valid but backwards looking. If you look at a startup they usually give equity on both past and expected performance. Most people would say Aberg is going to add far more than JT over the next 8 years and thats how they should structure it. This is a poor biz play.
@KylePorterCBS @JosephLaMagna It's telling when you compare the growth and interest in the game of golf vs. the declining interest in professional golf as a TV product. What's worse is power brokers and players around the game conflating those two ideas to make it seem like pro golf is 'healthy'
