Scottie Scheffler had his 1st beer in a long time

I had a beer for the first time in a long time. It just sounded good, right? And we got off the course. I went in there, you know, that these guys are trying to get me to do media and all this stuff. And I was like, well, how much time do I really have? They're like, well, you got a couple minutes. And I was like, all right, let me just go inside so I can get some air conditioning. And then there was an open bar right there. And I was like, all right, I'm grabbing a beer. It tasted great. Yeah, it was fun. I don't really drink very often. My wife and my manager were like, wow, I haven't seen you have a beer in a long time. And it's like, yeah, well, season's over now. I'm going to have a beer, well-earned beer. You described out there to Amanda that this year kind of felt like a battle. I guess, could you just elaborate a little bit on that and, you know, what it looks like to be pushing that hard behind the scenes for you as world number one? I mean, I think it's not necessarily this season. I think just playing tournament golf, I think is a battle as a whole. You know, I think that's part of why I love it too. I get to play against the course myself. You know, you have to learn how to handle your emotions, handle pressure, not take days off. That's something I'm very proud of. I feel like I hold myself to a high standard, which I think sometimes can be good and bad. You know, I feel like at times, you know, I probably could be a bit of a pain to be around when things aren't going the way I should, but I don't feel like I take days off. I'm highly competitive and, you know, I'm very proud of being able to have the consistent results that I've had over the years. I feel like it's something that's very difficult to do and it's something that I'm very proud of. You know, I don't take tournaments off. I don't take days off during tournaments. I try to give it my all each and every day. I feel like, you know, it's a gift to play out here on the PGA Tour and I don't want to take it for granted. I don't want to look back at the end of my career and feel like I could have done more in order to play well. I want to be able to tell myself when I hang it up that I did everything that I could. And I feel like years like this kind of show that to myself, how important that is. Yeah, I don't really know how to elaborate beyond that, but. Hey, Jay, right here. Scotty, along those same lines, you had some results that you didn't want earlier this year and obviously you finished strong. What lingers longer for you, the highs of winning or the pain of coming close and falling short? I feel like I'm always just trying to figure things out. I feel like even after winning this week, you know, I went on that long, long deal at the Open a couple of years ago and I'm kind of back there again. You know, part of what's great about golf and part of what's very frustrating about golf is it's kind of an endless puzzle you're always trying to solve. And, you know, I'm sitting here and I'm already, I'm excited to get rest for a few days, but then I'm excited to kind of get back and start working again. I feel like in order to become good at this game, you have to really enjoy the harder parts of it, the stuff that's a little bit more mundane. You know, whether it be working on my endurance on the bike in the gym or working out when I don't want to, or going out to the course and practicing the things that can be a little bit more tedious that other guys may not. I feel like late on Sundays, stuff like that has a tendency to show up. And, you know, I'm very proud of, like I said, I want to be able to tell myself that I did everything that I could in order to play well. And sitting here today, I feel like that's the case. And going forward throughout my career, I hope that that always continues to be the case. I take a lot of pride in that.
