00:00Scotty, wondering your perspective on the situation on 14.
00:04Nico was in here earlier, called you a class act for giving him that putt.
00:08Just what was going through your mind when you heard the person yell in the swing
00:12and what brought you to, you know, give him that putt?
00:15I mean, there's just no place for that.
00:18I was very frustrated.
00:20It was honestly a big distraction, I think, for me,
00:22just because, you know, we compete and work so hard to put ourselves in these moments.
00:26And when you have some fan who decides to insert himself into the tournament,
00:30you can say, I think, whatever you want to players,
00:32but I think, you know, there's an amount of respect there.
00:35You should get about 30 seconds when you're over the ball and hit your shot
00:38or get ready for your shot where fans are pretty sound.
00:41It just didn't really sit well with me.
00:43And, you know, he would never hit a shot as poorly, I think,
00:46as he hit off the 14th if there wasn't a fan yelling in his swing.
00:49And, you know, it was just very frustrating.
00:53I don't really want to talk about it all that much.
00:55It was just frustrating.
