[Cameron Jourdan @Cam_Jourdan]

Thought today was another really good Scottie Scheffler presser but particularly this answer when talking about dealing with the pressure of the career Grand Slam.

"It's kind of a funny thing. It's like, yeah, if I win this tournament, that would be amazing, but I think then I show up the next week, and it's like, okay, now Scottie's won the grand slam, he's won all these golf tournaments. Now where do we go from here?

So no matter what, I think as a player and as a professional athlete, you're never going to live up to the expectations of people. I think sometimes that's a little bit of the fallacy in our sport is like, if I win the U.S. Open, then I'm going to be satisfied. I've won all the tournaments, and my career is essentially over, and I've accomplished everything I could want to accomplish. But I think the goal posts are always just moved further and further.

"For me, would it be a dream to win the U.S. Open? Of course. But at the end of the day, like I -- the grand slam has never been a motivating factor for me. I always just wanted to be the best version of myself, and that got me this far."

The width of Shinnecock.

You'll hear a lot about how wide the fairways are at Shinnecock now compared to the 2004 U.S. Open.

I put together these visuals showing the 2018 set-up with the 2004 fairway lines overlayed.

Rory McIlroy isn't happy with how he's swinging the driver right now.

He gave an incredibly detailed response about what he's feeling...

[Monday Q Info @acaseofthegolf1]

There is a chance that one of the stories of the golf year will happen today.

It won't happen in LA, or in Ohio. Instead it might happen in Mexico at the Americas Tour event.

Today Corey Pereira will tee off with a two-shot lead. The 31-year-put his pro career on hold to care for his wife Leah, who battled cancer.

Last year on June 22nd, Leah passed away sadly. And after a few months Corey started to play golf again. He Monday Q'd for the Napa event and soon gained status on Americas.

So far this year he has made 3 of 4 cuts and sits 20th in points. A win today would go a long way to locking up his KFT card for next year.

I think we are all pulling for Corey.

Iowans are willing to die to keep the John Deere Classic in the Quad Cities. The PGA needs to tread lightly because they may start a war they cannot win

Scottie Scheffler, Jordan Spieth and Brooks Koepka potentially in contention this weekend

[Jeremy Hahn @HypemanHahn]

@CarsleyGolf Most pros would tell amateurs to always play the full club. At the risk of hurting feelings, if you’re unable to hit a “full” shot, it’s highly unlikely there’s a true feel to say a 75% wedge. It’s largely a guessing game for mid level handicap.

LeBron James says he isn't a billionaire. Forbes has him at $1.4 billion. He's right.

He went on Complex this week, held up a $405,040 Richard Mille, and said the watch was free. He said his bank account holds a couple thousand. He said his kids have all the money now.

Every line is accurate.

The Lakers paid him $48.7 million this season. His off-court income runs around $80 million annually from Nike, PepsiCo, Beats, and a dozen other brands. None of that sits in a checking account at age 41. It moves into investment vehicles the same week it clears.

The Richard Mille is the RM 65-01 LeBron edition, limited to 150 pieces globally. He didn't buy it. He co-designed it. Richard Mille gave him 001/150 because every paparazzi photo of his wrist sells the next 20 to oil magnates and tech founders. The watch is technically free in the same way the MacBook Tim Cook holds at a keynote is technically free. The brand pays the principal to wear the product.

The 2011 Fenway Sports Group deal is the textbook version of the trade. LeBron got Liverpool FC equity for marketing services, zero cash out of pocket. Liverpool was valued around $300 million at the time. The club sits above $5 billion today. He converted that stake into a broader FSG position in 2021, which now also includes the Red Sox and Pittsburgh Penguins. FSG itself runs north of $12 billion. He paid nothing for any of it.

SpringHill is the bigger one. RedBird Capital led a 2021 round at a $725 million valuation, with Nike and FSG also putting capital in. LeBron remained the largest single shareholder. The company just merged with Fulwell 73, which extends the slate without diluting his control. None of that equity is liquid. It compounds inside a holding structure that does not show up on a bank statement.

Now the kids. "They got all the money now. They take care of dad." Read that as an estate plan said out loud. Move appreciating assets into trusts in your heirs' names while the assets are still small. Pay gift tax on the original valuation. The S&P doubles, the trust doubles, the IRS already saw its slice. The Walton family ran this on Walmart in the 1980s. The Mars family ran it on candy.

The Complex headline is "LeBron reveals he's not a billionaire."

$1.4 billion is the entity. Couple thousand is the man.
