00:00It wasn't easy for Hideki Matsuyama on Sunday, but he did hold on to win the St. Jude Championship
00:12to start off the FedExCup postseason.
00:14What did you make of Hideki's performance last week in Memphis?
00:19I tell you what, Ben, Hideki, it was really something because you have to consider how
00:24he started his week.
00:25The story surrounding him and his team, the fact that he didn't have his regular caddy
00:29there, the fact that he didn't have his coach there because they had gotten robbed over
00:34in London when they had stopped over from Paris heading to Memphis.
00:38And those guys lost their visas and their passports in order to come to America.
00:42So Hideki with a new caddy goes out and he wins and holds on on Sunday.
00:47An impressive performance.
00:48And you know what?
00:49A good course fit and a good course fit again this week.
00:52We've seen a lot of multiple winners over the years in the playoffs.
00:55I think Hideki is still pretty alive this week, guys.
00:58Keith, the top 50 move on here to the advance to the next round.
01:03But let me take a look at some of the guys that didn't finish there, particularly in
01:06Rory McIlroy.
01:07Back to back 74s on the weekend.
01:09What happened to his game and not advancing?
01:11Well, that's an upset right there.
01:14DRS, how about the bottom of that leaderboard?
01:16You got T68, you got two guys, Jordan Spieth and Rory McIlroy, and then 70th place Max
01:22Homa.
01:23These are huge names and these guys are well out of form.
01:26I don't see how they, you know, they even get it back.
01:29I mean, I was there all week.
01:31Rory was hitting the driver everywhere.
01:32It was one of the worst ball striking weeks of his career.
01:36And I just don't see how he flips the switch, which is a shame because out here at Castle
01:39Pines par 72, 8,130 yards on the scorecard.
01:45It's a perfect fit for Rory.
01:46Jack Nicklaus golf course.
01:48He loves those two.
01:49But man, I tell you, it looked rough last week.
01:53Not so much just the game, Donnie.
01:56It was his body language.
01:57He looked like he was just done for the year.
02:00He actually looks like he's been done since Pinehurst and he walked out of that scorer's
02:04tent and didn't want to talk to the media anymore.
02:07I think Rory needs a reset, boys.
