those so yeah
6:03
Golf, you don't have to run.
6:04
So that helped me out a bit.
6:06
Yeah, I just started.
6:07
I mean, there's videos of me swinging with a plastic club when I was like two.
6:11
And then I probably didn't really play and pick it up again until I was about 11, 10, 11.

And then kind of got hooked on it from there.

19 MINS LATER

Was there a moment that day, that week, where you genuinely thought, I might not have this?

Did, did it come up for conversation? You know, what was happening in the head as the numbers kept coming onto the board?
9:07
Yeah, no, it was like, I mean, I was three under through eight, so I was going pretty good, but you're not really, you know, thinking about it overly yet.
9:13
And then I chipped in for eagle on my, my ninth hole, which was the 18th, the par five.
9:17
So that kind of, you know, got it going.
9:20
I was like, "Oh, I'm, I'm doing pretty, pretty [laughs] good here." And then I birdied two and three, which was my 11th and 12th hole, and then all of a sudden you're, you're, I'm seven under through 11.
9:33
And then on the fourth hole, I missed a four-footer for birdie, but you know, I had two par fives coming up, and managed to birdie both of those.
9:41
But after, I think after the, the seventh hole, I said to Tom, I was like... 'Cause I was eight under with two holes to go, and I said, "Tom, I've never shot double digits under par before.

... a 12-foot putt to win a national championship, what does that faith look like internally?
