Golf Channel Analyst: Scottie Scheffler Could Surpass Tiger Woods

Golf Channel Analyst: Scottie Scheffler Could Surpass Tiger Woods originally appeared on The Spun. Sunday marked the fourth major championship for Scottie Scheffler as he further proves why he's the best in the game right now. But one golf analyst believes there's a world that exists where he actually becomes the greatest of all-time. Few golfers, if any, have ever been as dominant as Tiger Woods was at his peak. However, Golf Channel's Paul McGinley thinks Scheffler is well on his way to surpassing Eldrick if he can keep this up. "The secret sauce for Scottie Scheffler is between the ears. That's where he's at the best. I have not seen a competitor anywhere close to Tiger Woods as good as this guy. That's how high the bar is," McGinley began. "And I think as time goes on, he might even prove to be a better one. He might even prove to have more longevity than Tiger Woods at the top. Because, at this moment in time, it's hard to see him getting derailed because he's so stable off the course as much as he's stable on the golf course." "And it looks like he's got that fine [balance] between golf being really important and loving it and loving to compete, but also that it's not the most important thing in his life," the former world No. 18 added. "That is the sweet spot there, to not be so obsessed with something that it's also still fun, and that he can leave it behind if it's not a good day." "And I really do think that this guy is going to be around for a long long time. And it's hard to see what could derail him. There's so many things he's dealt with in life, as well as in his golf career, that he's circumnavigated and got through the other side." Scottie almost feels unstoppable right now. And even if there's still a long way to go before he puts himself in the rarified air of Tiger Woods — he's certainly chipping Channel Analyst: Scottie Scheffler Could Surpass Tiger Woods first appeared on The Spun on Jul 20, 2025 This story was originally reported by The Spun on Jul 20, 2025, where it first appeared.

Fremantle coach Justin Longmuir lashes pundit David King over constant criticism of Dockers

Fremantle coach Justin Longmuir lined up former Kangaroos star David King and went whack on Thursday, sick of the criticism the media pundit sends his way. Despite winning six of the past seven games, and being only percentage outside the top eight, King said Longmuir was the most 'under pressure' coach following a loss to Sydney. Longmuir wasn't copping it and at his weekly press conference launched into King, confused as to why he and the Dockers were a constant target and questioning whether the premiership winner knew what it took to coach a team. 'If I had $1 for every time someone asked me what I've done to David King, I'd be a rich man and I'd probably be in the Bahamas guts up rather than doing this job,' he said. 'In the end, everyone needs to understand it's just David's opinion. We're a game based on opinion and that's his opinion. That's enough said about it. 'I don't want to be disrespectful towards anyone, but I don't think David's put together a game plan, put together a list, put together a culture. It's just an opinion and that's what I take it as. 'It seems to be a little bit over the top, but it seems to be his way with me.' Longmuir is on a rolling contract with the Dockers, who face top-four aspirants Hawthorn at home on Saturday and could break into the top eight with a win. A loss could hurt their finals chances, but Longmuir said he wouldn't get distracted by the opinions of those paid purely to voice one and would listen only to 'people I trust around this club'. 'I don't get caught up in it because I am always looking forward and looking towards how I can improve my coaching, how I can improve the way we're playing and try to live by the mantra I teach the players every day. And that's living in the moment,' he said. 'I know people get caught up in it and some people around me get caught up in that stuff, but really I am just focused on the opinions of people I trust around this club and doing the best I can.'
