Tiger Woods' Ex-Coach Calls Scottie Scheffler 'More of Jack' Nicklaus
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Scottie Scheffler is in the thick of his golden era, and he doesn't seem to be blinking. Scheffler has now won 12 times since March 2024, including three of the four majors and an Olympic gold. His latest triumph came last week at Royal Portrush, where the World No.1 raised the Claret Jug after a commanding four-shot victory at the 153rd Open Championship. It marked the third leg of the career Grand Slam, leaving only the U.S. Open to complete the set. Woods' ex-coach Butch Harmon compares Scottie Scheffler to Jack Nicklaus Soon after his win, the golf world erupted with comparisons of Scheffler and 15-time major winner, Tiger Woods. Scheffler's dominance, especially his ability to stay focused, has drawn parallels to Woods' from quite some time. Even Xander Schauffele stated, "He's doing some Tiger-like stuff," per the PGA Tour. But amid all the comparisons with the Big Cat, one voice close to Woods offered a different take.

(Image Credits: Getty Images) Getty Images Butch Harmon, who coached Woods from 1993 to 2004, dialed into SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio on Monday to share his views. "In all the comparisons and stuff to Tiger and this and that, I think his greatest attribute that he has is he's the closest thing to Jack Nicklaus I've ever seen mentally," Harmon stated per video posted on X. "He makes no mental mistakes. He dumps the ball in the middle of the green when he has to. His iron control is beautiful. He reminds me more of Jack than he does of Tiger — Tiger in the winning ways, but Jack in the way he plays golf. I've never quite seen a guy that can mimic Nicklaus the way he does". Harmon's praise wasn't just about the stats but the similarity in their styles as well. Scheffler's strategic, mistake-free approach mirrors Nicklaus' famed course management. And Harmon, who's seen both legends up close, believes Scheffler's mental game is what sets him apart. Facts prove Scottie Scheffler's resemblance to Jack Nicklaus Back in May, after Scheffler won the Memorial Tournament, Nicklaus told reporters, "He plays a lot like I did." The Golden Bear emphasized Scheffler's ability to play smart with a lead, something Nicklaus mastered over decades. Not only that, but after clinching the Open, Scheffler's 15-month-old son Bennett crawled toward him on the 18th green. The toddler tripped, face-planted, and was scooped up by Scheffler as he balanced the Claret Jug in one hand, son in the other.

(Image Credits: Getty Images) Getty Images It was a scene reminiscent of Nicklaus at the 1973 PGA Championship, when his 4-year-old son Gary ran to him. The 18-time major winner also carried off Gary, per The Associated Press. Nicklaus later called that photo his "favorite photo in golf," later taking it to Facebook, captioning it, "Family first, golf second." Scheffler echoed that sentiment after winning the Claret Jug. "I would say my greatest priorities are my faith and my family," Scheffler said, per the AP. "Those come first for me. Golf is third, in that order." So while the Tiger comparisons with the World No.1 may be inevitable, Wood's former coach Harmon, and perhaps Nicklaus himself, see something deeper. What do you think?

Why Scottie Scheffler, Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz are approaching rarified sports betting air
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. In the span of one week, the sporting world watched as Jannik Sinner and Scottie Scheffler captured their second major respective titles of 2025, marking the fourth of their respective careers. Sinner, the World No. 1 in men's tennis, dispatched Carlos Alcaraz in the final at Wimbledon, while golf's top man, Scheffler, ran away from the field at Royal Portrush to lift the Claret Jug for the first time. The two results were anything but surprising. Scheffler has won two of the last three majors, and he has teed off as the betting favorite in each of the previous 12, with three wins and ten top-10 finishes in that span. His average pre-tournament odds for the last eight majors are roughly +450, which equates to 18.8 percent implied probability. That is absurdly high in golf terms, but for Scheffler, it may be a discount considering he won 37.5 percent of the majors in that span. It's as if we're right back in the middle of the aughts, with prime Tiger Woods on the prowl. Men's tennis is in a similarly nostalgic spot. 5 Tiger Woods in 2008 after winning the U.S. Open. Getty Images Sinner was the second choice at Wimbledon, but the margin separating him and Carlos Alcaraz was minute. They were essentially co-favorites, as they were at the French Open a few weeks prior. Alcaraz defeated Sinner in a five-set thriller at Roland Garros. Sinner and Alcaraz have now combined to win the last seven Grand Slam titles, and they have nine of the last 12 between them. The only other player to win a major trophy in that span is Novak Djokovic, who is coming up on the second anniversary of his last one, the 2023 US Open. 5 Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz after the Wimbledon Final. Susan Mullane-Imagn Images Betting on golf? For much of the aughts and 2010s, men's tennis was dominated by a big three – Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Roger Federer – who combined to win 66 Grand Slam titles between 2003-23. Only nine other players won a Grand Slam title between Federer's maiden major (Wimbledon, 2003) and Alcaraz's first at the 2022 US Open. In the 12 Slams leading up to Federer's initial triumph, there were nine different champions. That seems a foreign concept these days. 5 Carlos Alcaraz holding the French Open trophy. AFP via Getty Images When Federer and Nadal stepped aside, it was supposed to open things up and add some unpredictability to Grand Slam tennis. Instead, there was a succession plan already in place. Alcaraz and Sinner were waiting in the wings, only this time, the Big 3 has been whittled down to a Dominant Duo. Sinner is currently +120 to win the US Open, while Alcaraz is right behind him at +180 odds. That equates to roughly an 81.2 percent chance that one of them will lift the trophy in Flushing. With some back-of-the-napkin math and not accounting for the vig, you should get +432 odds (18.8 percent) to bet the field against Sinner and Alcaraz next month. 5 Scottie Scheffler after winning the British Open. AP It's not a straight line between Grand Slam tennis to major championship golf – in the former, it's mono y mono, while the latter pits you against an entire field – but you can throw one umbrella over the two of them when it comes to handicapping. These are elite fields, pitting the best players in the world against one another, and that should be a recipe for chaos, which in turn makes for terrific betting. There's a reason why the Kentucky Derby is beloved. But instead, the slams and the majors have become entirely predictable — and dare I say unenjoyable — for the average punter who doesn't want to throw down heaps of scratch on short favorites in the biggest events of the year. 5 Roger Federer celebrating a win in 2018. EPA Get the lowdown on the Best USA Sports Betting Sites and Apps The glass-half-full bettor would saythe short prices on Sinner, Alcaraz and Scheffler allow you to get some terrific numbers on legitimate contenders, but the problem with that logic is that not only do you need to beat the Goliaths, but you also have to identify the right David. And perhaps the most daunting part of all of this is the fact that the average age of Alcaraz, Sinner and Scheffler is just north of 24-and-a-half years old. We are still in the beginning stages of this era, but history may provide a glimpse of what it could look like. Back in 2006, Rafael Nadal was -125 to win the French Open. A few weeks later, Roger Federer was -200 to win Wimbledon. That same month, Tiger Woods was a +500 favorite to win the Open. All three won. Historical betting data provided by Sports Odds History.

NBC SPORTS FINALIZES GAME ANALYST TEAM AND ADDS FINAL PLAY-BY-PLAY VOICE FOR NBA COVERAGE BEGINNING THIS FALL
1986 No. 1 Pick Brad Daugherty, Five-Time NBA Champion Derek Fisher, and NBA Veterans Robbie Hummel, Austin Rivers, and Brian Scalabrine to Join NBC Sports' NBA Coverage as Game Analysts Michael Grady Joins as Play-by-Play Voice 2025-26 NBA Season Begins Oct. 21 on NBC and Peacock STAMFORD, Conn. – July 24, 2025 – NBC Sports finalized its NBA game analyst and play-by-play rosters today with the additions of analysts Brad Daugherty, Derek Fisher, Robbie Hummel, Austin Rivers, and Brian Scalabrine, and play-by-play voice Michael Grady. The 2025-26 NBA season begins on NBC and Peacock on Oct. 21. Daugherty, Fisher, Hummel, Rivers, and Scalabrine round out a game analyst roster for NBC Sports which also includes previously announced NBA veterans Jamal Crawford, Reggie Miller, and Grant Hill. Grady joins Mike Tirico, Noah Eagle, and Terry Gannon as NBC Sports' play-by-play voices for the NBA. This group will handle up to 100 regular season games -- including five games a week for portions of the season -- plus the playoffs. 'We're excited to introduce this group to NBA fans and can't wait for them to set up and break down games for viewers all season long,' said NBC Sports Executive Producer Sam Flood. 'This team would win a lot of games on the court and now they have the opportunity to take their talents to NBC and Peacock.' Brad Daugherty, the No. 1 overall pick in the 1986 NBA Draft, played nine seasons with the Cleveland Cavaliers, where he was a five-time NBA All-Star and had his No. 43 retired by the team. Daugherty had a storied college career at the University of North Carolina, playing two seasons alongside Michael Jordan and earning two first-team All-ACC selections and a second-team All-America selection. As a co-owner of Hyak Motorsports and stockcar enthusiast, Daugherty joined NBC Sports in 2020 as a NASCAR pre- and post-race analyst. A five-time NBA champion with the Los Angeles Lakers (2000-2002, 2009-2010), Derek Fisher played 18 seasons in the NBA and appeared in 287 playoff games, second only to LeBron James on the all-time list. The No. 24 overall pick in the 1996 NBA Draft out of Little Rock, Fisher played in eight NBA Finals (seven with the Lakers, one with the Oklahoma City Thunder). After retiring in 2014, Fisher spent time as the head coach of the New York Knicks and the WNBA's Los Angeles Sparks. A two-time AP Honorable Mention All-American during an impressive career at Purdue (2007-2012), Robbie Hummel was selected in the second round of the 2012 NBA Draft and played two seasons for the Minnesota Timberwolves. Since 2023, Hummel has been an analyst for NBC Sports' presentation of Big Ten men's basketball and served as a men's basketball analyst on NBCUniversal's Paris Olympic coverage. The No. 10 overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft out of Duke, Austin Rivers played 11 seasons in the NBA, making the playoffs eight times. He spent his career with seven teams (New Orleans Hornets/Pelicans, Los Angeles Clippers, Washington Wizards, Houston Rockets, New York Knicks, Denver Nuggets, Minnesota Timberwolves). Rivers' father is NBA champion-head coach Doc Rivers, who coached Austin for three-and-a-half seasons with the Clippers. Following his retirement in 2023, Rivers began his broadcasting career as a studio analyst for ESPN before joining NBC Sports in 2025 as a college basketball analyst. Rivers will occasionally work as an NBC Sports studio analyst as well. A second-round pick out of USC in the 2001 NBA Draft, Brian Scalabrine played 11 seasons in the NBA, primarily with the New Jersey Nets and Boston Celtics. During his career, he played in four NBA Finals, winning one in 2008 with the Celtics and becoming a city fan favorite. Since the 2020-21 NBA season, he has been NBC Sports Boston's primary game analyst for Celtics' games. He makes weekly appearances on the network's Celtics Insider show as well as other NBC Sports Boston programming throughout the year. Scalabrine will occasionally work as an NBC Sports studio analyst as well. Michael Grady has been the play-by-play voice of the Minnesota Timberwolves on Bally Sports North since the 2022-23 NBA season, which led him to ESPN's rotation of NBA play-by-play announcers at the start of the 2024-25 season. He has also called NBA games for TNT Sports. Grady began his career as the PA announcer at Gainbridge Fieldhouse for the Indiana Pacers and Fever, and in 2017, began serving as a sideline reporter for the Brooklyn Nets on YES Network and started calling select games for the team in 2020. Grady will continue to call some games for the Timberwolves. The NBA returns to NBC and debuts on Peacock on Tuesday, Oct. 21, when the 2025-26 season tips off. Throughout the course of the season, NBC Sports will present up to 100 regular season NBA games -- including five games a week for portions of the season -- plus the playoffs. NBC and Peacock will present coverage on Tuesday nights beginning in October. After Sunday Night Football coverage concludes in 2026, NBC Sports will launch Sunday Night Basketball across NBC and Peacock. Peacock will also livestream national Monday night games starting Oct. 27. *** In July 2024, NBCUniversal and the NBA announced an 11-year agreement to present NBA and WNBA regular-season and playoff basketball games across numerous platforms beginning with the 2025-26 season. For more information on the agreement, click here. NBC Sports has already announced that Jamal Crawford, Reggie Miller, and Grant Hill will serve as game analysts; Carmelo Anthony and Vince Carter as studio analysts; Maria Taylor and Ahmed Fareed as studio hosts; and Mike Tirico, Noah Eagle, and Terry Gannon as play-by-play voices. Michael Jordan has been announced as a special contributor. Emmy Award-winning producer Frank DiGraci is NBC Sports' NBA coordinating producer.
