00:00Like I said to Sheehan afterwards on Sunday, I said, you know, form is temporary and class is permanent.
00:05Like he is that caliber of a player. We all know he is.
00:09It was just a matter of him getting back to that point and winning a tournament.
00:13And I think him finishing it off in emphatic style the way he did, I think it'll do a lot
00:22for him.
00:22And it'll hopefully do a lot for him with how he approaches final rounds going forward.
00:28Because, you know, I think he would admit himself that final rounds have been a struggle over the last couple
00:33of years for him.
00:35But I think for him to go out, shoot 63 on the final day, leading your National Open with all
00:41that crowd support behind you.
00:42You know, he really went out there and he grabbed the tournament by the throat and he made it his.
00:46And that was, it was amazing to see.
00:50Because he, you know, and he alluded to it on Sunday night as well.
00:53Like he's had, he's had some hard times this year and, you know, we've had some chats and heart to
00:59hearts about it.
01:00And, you know, all I can try to be is a, is a good friend and provide encouragement and maybe
01:04provide examples of what I've maybe tried to do in those, in those circumstances.
01:10But yeah, as I said, I think it was only a matter of time and it was amazing to see.
