Scottie Scheffler Sunday Flash Interview 2024 BMW Championship

just a assessment of the week as as a whole I mean overall pretty frustrating week um I felt like today I played like quite nice um definitely felt you know I back felt a little off the first day last two days was kind of battling my swing and um wasn't holding a bunch of putts but you know today I went out there and um played what I felt like was really good good Round Golf hit a lot of good shots it's just had trouble with the wind and the elevation it can be so challenging coming from those large downhill shots into the wind like number Nine's an example of a shot where I had 149 adjusted pin and my nineiron goes 176 and it flew 140 yards and I flushed it maybe even less than that short in the water and so it's like Teddy was telling the ball to sit in the air because it looked like the wind had died and so it's one of those things that you know um it's challenging and I could have could have been better at it this week and there's a lot of things I could have done better but overall I feel like today felt much better about my swing play some good golf and hold some nice spots is that a good thing to take you know the positives from today more than the negative from the first kind of three days in the next week yeah definitely I mean it's like I haven't had many off weeks this year and so this this was definitely one of them and so it feels good to to at least put a decent round together today you know few few breaks go my way it looks a little bit different but it's just one of those one of those weeks where uh you know sometimes the ball bounces your direction sometimes it doesn't and this was definitely a week week in which the ball was not bouncing in the direction that I was hoping it was going to we've talked about you know the the these three weeks in a row and getting ready peeking for for next week and what are you GNA kind of do the next few days to kind of kind of rest and recoup and be ready for when Thursday comes around yeah just get get rested get ready you know we got a new golf course to learn it's my understanding the changes were pretty significant next week and so um definitely looking forward to getting down there and uh I'll go out late tomorrow and do some practice and uh see what's going on with the uh the new course you going to try to play play some holes tomorrow yeah it depends how I feel but I I I would imagine I'm going to try to get out on the course just one last question like we saw a little bit frustration on Friday kind of come out of you a little bit in some different shots is that the most we never see you get like that normally in the golf course is that one of the more frustrating maybe like days you kind of had like some of the stuff that kind going on well yeah I just you know it's it's frustrating when you feel like you're doing stuff that's good and it's not turning out the way you're intending it to and you know I I remember on number 10 I I felt like I was hitting in the rough way too often in the rough there again hit in the water the day before I hit a really good shot into 15 and the ball spins off the green I have same number very similar number I think I had just a touch shorter on 10 I'm like oh perfect like big slope again you know that green was soft yesterday should just chip a little 56 hit exactly how I want to ball lands next to the pin and it bounces six over the green it's kind of like man that's just that's just tough you know and so I was I I really didn't understand how it was possible that that green was you know not similar firmness felt like we got some rain and really it was just one of those deals where the golf course this week just got the better of me and um like I said I the balls were not bouncing the way that I thought they were going to and you know I was just I would say bit off most of the week one last question you've been in this position before head into East Lake with the lead how do you what have you learned maybe from those situations in the past that might help you this year with the mindset going into the week with a with a lead yeah just staying patient overall treating it like like I would any other other tournament it's weird you know starting off with a lead you know all lead would be in first or second depending on how today shakes out so on all be in contention going into the next week and just got to go out there and and do my thing and compete and um you know I got a great chance to win a tournament next week and I'm looking forward to the the challenge I got some some great players behind me and um you know it should be some uh fun competition thanks SC all right you got
