Scottie Won’t Quit, Gary Player Defies Age & We Survive Wyndhurst | Ep. 12

Scottie Scheffler played through an illness that left him with blisters on his hands and feet. Gary Player is still striping fairways at 90 years old. And then Jake and Brett tried to survive their own battle at Wyndhurst Manor & Club. Episode 12 of Divots & Skins starts with Scottie Scheffler and the grit it took to battle through the BMW Championship while sick. We talk about what makes Scottie so consistent, his ability to avoid bogeys and scramble for pars, and a lesson he learned from watching Tiger Woods bring the same intensity whether he was in contention or not. Then there's Gary Player. Jake watched Bryson DeChambeau's Break 50 with the 90-year-old golf legend, and Player's game, fitness and energy are incredible. We get into his longevity, career, legendary approach to fitness and a golf term Jake hadn't heard before: "ham and eggs." Then it's time for our golf. Can I Break 50 with a 90 Year Old? - https://youtu.be/2WwmlhkXE7k?si=nxX4AjNvFeHGMorh The US Am Tour Albany Region wrapped up its 2026 local season at Wyndhurst Golf & Club in Lenox, Massachusetts. Jake was trying to break 100 and shot exactly 100, while Brett battled through illness, dizziness and his toughest tour round of the season. It leads to a bigger conversation every amateur golfer can relate to: What do you do when the round starts falling apart? Do you quit, or do you reset and keep grinding? We also look ahead to US Am Tour Nationals in Oregon, the beginning of the 2027 tour season, our upcoming Myrtle Beach golf trip and Season 2 of Divots & Skins. And Brett's Rule of the Day gets weird again. What can you legally do when your golf ball ends up next to a cactus? You might be surprised by what the Rules of Golf allow you to protect and what you're NOT allowed to protect. *IN THIS EPISODE:* • Scottie Scheffler battling through illness • What Scottie learned from Tiger Woods • Gary Player playing golf at 90 • Bryson DeChambeau's Break 50 with Gary Player • What "ham and eggs" means in golf • US Am Tour at Wyndhurst Golf & Club • Battling through a terrible round • When withdrawing from a tournament makes sense • Why you shouldn't quit just because you're playing badly • US Am Tour Nationals and the 2027 season • Our upcoming Myrtle Beach golf trip • Rule of the Day: the cactus rule • What's ahead for Season 2 of Divots & Skins *SPONSORS & PARTNERS* Blueprint Leadership Development: https://blueprintleadershipdevelopment.com The Luxury Box - Queensbury, NY: https://theluxurybox.net US Am Tour - Albany Region: https://www.bluegolf.com/amateur/programs/usamtour\_nyalbany/index.html *Courses:* Wyndhurst Golf & Club: https://wyndhurstgolfandclub.com Have a course on the East Coast we need to play?
