Scottie Scheffler is a budding superstar, behind the scenes of a PGA Tour Pro-Am, and a Players Championship preview

This week on the Twilight 9 podcast: Scottie Scheffler’s gutsy win, Rory McIlroy’s comments, and a look at the Players Championship.

People love to throw around the phrases “open the flood gates” and “once he gets that first win, watch out.” The same things were said about Scottie Scheffler after his first PGA Tour win at the WM Phoenix Open a few weeks ago. But after his performance at Bay Hill, the flood gates may be officially open.

Scheffler made gutsy par after gutsy par down the stretch at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and eventually slipped on the famous red cardigan with a winning score of 5 under. Yup, Bay Hill was a monster on the weekend. But, it was a challenge Scheffler faced head-on, and because of that, is now a two-time Tour winner.

This week on the Twilight 9 podcast, Andy and I dive into the week in Orlando and discuss comments Rory McIlroy made after Sunday’s final round about course set up and the games best maybe not returning to Arnie’s place.

We also discuss Andy’s experience playing in the Wednesday Pro-Am at Bay Hill and how nervous he was to hit his first tee shot in front of Jason Kokrak, his playing partner for the day.
