Well done and a great listen but man, hearing this laid out in long form it’s somehow more disappointing.
Yeah taking a pass on this one. Rory is really the only player I have any long term emotional investment in and I don’t need a recap of a decade of disappointment.
Dropping this during the “most wonderful time of the year” is a tough scene
This and the owners pod on my Jaguars, I feel targeted.
It’s the hope that kills you
A+ guys. 30min in. I’m sad but it’s fun to think of the better times when the hope was bright.
Man I forgot the Rory / Speith pairing. Sigh.
No spoilers but the ChatGPT bit is the hardest I’ve laughed in a long time. Great content guys!
The written word wasn’t enough @KVV?
As someone who regularly digs back into the older pods and listened to the Norman deep dive and the greatest collapses deep dive just last week, Rory’s quotes sound so much like Norman’s. Such a tough scene but nothing in the past decade sounds like a guy who thinks he can actually win another one of these and it reminds me why I never rooted for him until like a year and half ago and I think I’m back in that boat again.
Vulnerability and being a human are terrible I agree.
I was sad listening to the FEG guys burying Spieth, but after listening to this I’m now convinced Jordan’s gonna win the grand slam at Quail Hollow, because all of golf seems designed to crush Rory’s spirit.
As someone who missed all four of his wins, (didn’t follow golf other than the masters in college) I never really understood the Rory fandom when compared to Speith or Brooks run. This episode was incredibly interesting and informative. Appreciate the work @KVV and crew.
