## Resource

Alex Smith, Shane Battier, and Ravi Gupta dive deep into Scottie Scheffler's controversial "What's the point?" press conference before the British Open. The world's #1 golfer questioned his purpose despite dominating the sport, sparking debates about competition, family priorities, and what drives elite performers. The guys explore how Scheffler's vulnerability contrasts with the Michael Jordan mentality, discuss Tom Brady's response, and examine whether this mindset is actually Scheffler's competitive superpower.
