Rory Mcilroy heard about scottie scheffler’s hand damage – and he had 1 joke

For Rory Mcilroy, things did not increase. He apparently began to do math.

Last year, Scottie Scheffler Earned over $ 29 million in PGA Tour Prime money, right? Check.

During his career, he is up to $ 71 million, which puts him third on the list of all time of the tournament, after Tiger Woods AND Mcilroy Himself, right? Check.

And Scheffler hurt himself – Ravioli’s cooking on Christmas? Also check.

The stunned news when he started circulating on December 27. Scheffler, The World No. 1 and a nine -time winner last year, pierced his right hand with a glass and needed surgery, said his manager, Blake Smith. He will also have to lose the tour of the tournament.

He lost four events. This week, in AT&T Pebble Beach pro-amScheffler is back. During his time away, he said He reflected someAn exercise he said he rarely does. “I just wanted to run my memory,” Scheffler said at the beginning of this month. “And since I was unable to play golf, I tried to train almost a little at home, where I was reminding my brain for what I felt for certain shots and how my hands were felt in the club and things like that. So That I was not, you know, completely checking out of golf, if that makes sense. ”

But after hearing about the injury, Mcilroy had a question on Tuesday at his pre-Pebble press conference.

He was asking about the preparation of dinner. And the money made.

“I think he made enough money to hire a chef,” hit Mcilroy. “Likes how are you cooking yourself?

“I hoped it would be more of a fun story than that. We were together in Vegas on December 17th and played that match With brooks and bryson. First, just worry and hope he was okay. It looks like he is. Good good that he is pulling it this week.

“Yes, get a chef.”

If you are curious, Scheffler later said he has one. Wis is a wise woman, Meredith. “She’s pretty cute, he said.

In a slightly more serious note, Mcilroy was also asked what he felt in the 2024 campaign of Scheffler, outside the basic statistics. It was an attractive question, as it gives you a window to what Mcilroy estimates.

“I never have-it’s nobody, this is Tiger, that’s in golf history-I don’t think I’ve ever seen a golf game as many rounds without Bogey as Scottie,” Mcilroy said. “He simply makes no mistakes. It is so impressive. He plays the right goal at the right time over and over again. You definitely need the technical ability to be able to make it, but he does not make mistakes. And when you make no mistakes In the golf course, the game can be made quite easy.

“So impressive. If he continues to do so, he will be the prevailing force that was last year and a year before that. “

But is mcilroy right? On the statistics page On the PGA Tour website, rounds without bogey are not listed, although at 2024’s viewing, Golf Statistics Guru Justin Ray tweet August 15 THAT Xander schauuffle He had charged his best 19th round without Bogey, which was five better than Scheffler, the other best in this category. (From this point, over 12 rounds, Schauffle and Scheffler posted three other postcards without Bogey, though two from Scheffler came to the hero World Challenge.)

“It’s a simple way to say it,” said Scheffler, “but I think having superior control of my golf ball is what enabled me not to make a lot of mistakes. That’s like having a good feeling where It’s my swing, so I know how to manage my way around the course, playing the right goal. Good where the club is as I did for many last season, I am able to really work around the golf course.

“It’s much simpler than just not making a mistake. It is easy to say to play it in the middle of green, but at the end of the day, you have to hit the shooting. I think that occasionally last year I just had real control of my ball and so I was able to avoid mistakes. “
