In the lucky 13th episode of The Drop, we break down Scottie Scheffler’s dominant victory at the 153rd Open Championship at Royal Portrush, where he claimed his fourth win of the 2025 season and second major of the year. We dig into the stats behind his historic performance, including his −17 total, 19 birdies, and flawless consistency as the only player to shoot under par all four rounds.

We also dive deep into strokes gained analytics - what it is, how it works, and how everyday golfers can use it to identify weaknesses, sharpen practice routines, and ultimately lower their scores. Whether you're a weekend warrior or chasing scratch, this episode reveals how Scottie’s statistical dominance can be a blueprint for your own game.

Plus:

• A look inside Scottie’s bag and the gear that’s fueled his hot streak
• How a putter switch and claw grip turned around his putting game
• The impact of Phil Kenyon’s coaching on his success
