Scheffler shoots course record 62 to win gold..

Scottie Scheffler shot a bogey-free course record 62 at Le Golf National on Sunday for a come-from-behind gold medal victory.

Sure, the impact of the victory will have on his all-time legacy may not be up there with his two green jackets or even his two Ryder Cup victories. But it's no secret that this was his most emotional reaction to a victory.

...

While standing on the podium for the medal ceremony, Scheffler burst into happy tears during the playing of the national anthem.

...

Scheffler now shifts his focus to the FedEx Cup Playoffs and then will all but likely represent the Stars and Stripes at the Presidents Cup against Team International (excluding Europe) at The Royal Montreal Golf Club in Canada.

That’s the same way I feel when I hear our National Anthem.

I get emotional every time.

Read all 4 stanzas. They tell an inspiring story.

I had no idea Scottie Scheffler won the gold medal, since I'm not following the Olympics, but he's on quite a run.

I don't care what they do in other countries but the United States Olympic Committee should only accept amateur athletes.

If you're a college athlete and you accept NIL money, you're out.

Back in the 60’s who do you think the US was playing?

Let the best in the world play. Americans will show why they dominate every aspect of life.

In case you haven't been paying attention, apparently they now are.........

Maybe they should change the name from the "Olympics" to the "World Professional Games"...........

You obviously don't know jack squat about golf.

Golf is the hardest individual sport in the world, ax charles barkley.

The pros that played both PGA as well as LIV players were the absolute best in the world.

How is that a farce?

You are jealous that they make millions doing something that you can't do.

Looks like he’s recovered from his arrest for “disrespecting the au-thor-a-tay” of the Kentucky cop.
