Scott originally was not exempt from qualifying as his world ranking was #61 with the Top 60 being exempt. So, he played in a final qualifying event held the week before the Open and missed qualifying by losing in a playoff for the last spot available at the qualifying event. Subsequently, the most current world rankings came out after the final qualifying event was held and Scott had moved from #61 to #60 due to the removal of #59 - Grayson Murray from the world rankings due to his death. So, Scott got into the Open days before it started based upon the revised world rankings and this video was probably made prior to Scott getting into the field. There were 4 players who were alternates after playing in final qualifying and got into the Open right before it started with Sergio Garcia being one of those alternates.
@@dorothygale1104 lol why make a English essay to make a fool out of your self? He literally played in he shot -1 F 7+ look it up. I’m not reading that whole thing.
@@MeanMints5 I’m sorry if my comment taxed your reading capabilities. It is of no consequence to me whether you read my “long” comment. I was simply explaining how Scott didn’t became eligible to play until just a few days before the US Open started (along with 5 others players, including Sergio Garcia). So, it is very possible the video was correct at the time it was made. Literally. That’s All.
@@MeanMints5Your actually dumb. Adam wasnt in the Open until a sponsors exemption a few days before. Essentially the USGA felt bad for him. This video was made before he got the exemption
@@BrainrotTwitchthey probably already had the new rankings done then the golfer in 59th died so they had to just move everyone up one spot also it’s you’re not your so maybe spell right before calling someone dumb
He taught at Cheyenne mountain junior high last year and he wasn’t the honors teacher so there was no way he taught close to high school level topics last year stop lying lmao
The FA Cup, an England soccer tournament, is similarly open. Any organized soccer team can enter the competition. Few make it through the qualifying rounds to face a professional top-tier team. But it does happen.
This guy teaches a whole bunch of my old classmates lol. I went to Cheyenne Mountain Junior High, and now he teaches all my friends who still live there at Cheyenne Mountain High School. They all posted on Insta congratulating him on making it. Kinda wierd seeing FMS covering it but I guess it is a pretty major story!
Not sure about the US, but teachers in Canada make a lot more than they let people believe. I used to sell cars and I was under the impression they made fuck all, sold a couple high school teachers cars, they were pulling high 90s, sold a college prof a car too and he was making like 140. Probably much different from country to country but the belief that teachers make fuck all isnt always true. Especially when you consider the amount of breaks they get throughout the year
It's because the ceiling is so incredibly low in golf, if it was actually open I bet some drunk guy named stew could walk up and get 5th place or something 😂
Interesting and unique for sure, but earning a solo spot on the tour is nothing like winning a 3 point comp and then getting a spot on a pro team. Being a successful basketball player takes a lot more than just the ability to shoot 3s. And its a team sport ehich means your individual skills are not the only important factor like it is in golf.
comparing keeping up with a basketball team just because they can make 3s to someone who playing golf is a bad comparison. Comparing would more like the sports teach went in to the walk in try outs and made it on the team for the celtics.
Comparing shooting 3s in basketball to qualifying for the US Open? He’s beating pros on their sport not just one tiny aspect of it. Were you thinking of baseketball?
Found atleast 3 people claim this dude teaches at their school and they all got different stuff to say about what he does, wonder if any of them are actually telling the truth
Ok so last year he was a junior high teacher at Cheyenne mountain junior high he taught 7th and 8th grade he couldn’t have been a highschool chem teacher last year because when he taught last year he wasn’t the honors teacher this year he went from the junior high to Cheyenne mountain high school and was replaced by someone named Mr smith I only got to interact with him in 7th grade and he wasn’t my science teacher but from the interaction I had with the guy he seemed pretty genuine and from what I’ve heard the high schoolers like him too
Not at all what it’d be like bc you have to be athletic to play basketball. There is nothing athletic about golf which is why a high school biology teacher can play “professional” golf.
THAT IS NOT THE EQUIVALENT LMAO dumbest take ive heard all day. its not that open. you have to qualify like you said and youre not making a league minimum like you do in nba. seriously dumb post bro
Adam Scott did make the field, bro has a streak of 93 straight majors played in which is perhaps the most insane stat in sports history That’s over 24 straight years of playing in every major every year. Never missing one. Absolutely unreal.
@@nathanshlap yes I played goalie it was very boring. Have you ever played golf? A MM of difference in your stance or grip changes the flight path and your target is a 10.8CM not 7×2 meters.
What you believe is not a fact. Additionally, your comment is based upon a false premise, as being a game and being a sport is not a mutually exclusive proposition, as an activity can be both a game and a sport. Under the definition of sport in every dictionary golf meets the definition of sport. Regardless of anyone’s belief, golf is an Olympic sport and is recognized as a sport by every country that participates in the Olympics. At the most fundamental level, why does it matter to you whether golf is called a game or sport? Implied in your attempt at differentiating between a game and sport is that one term carries an inferior meaning when the reality is both words simply describe an activity, not the quality of that activity. If golf is called a game, is any aspect of golf going to be negatively affected? Are pro golfers going to start earning less? Are broadcasters going to stop televising golf? You are trying to make a distinction that makes no difference to any aspect of golf.
Imagine having a teacher that’s in the US open that would be awesome
yeah that would be sick
He better be the golf coach too

wish he would have had a michal block story
Colin prater
I thought he was talking abt tennis in the intro ngl
He’s literally my teacher he was my biology teacher last year and is the golf coach for both men’s and women’s golf at my school

In the world of Soccer, we have the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. Same awesome opportunity for semiprofessional teams to win some silverware.

Dang finally someone who isnt lying about him being their teacher lol
He finished 5th… from dead last
Sports like boxing, strongman, and UFC allow average Joes to enter and make it to the highest level without needing to be drafted
He shot a 78 and a 79… On that course .. unreal.
bro said sellticks
That's how the team is pronounced..
Who thought he was talking about tennis?
the craziest part is that the high school teacher could afford the travel
I hope he got a sponsor if he needs the money

Why don’t they do a tournament like this for basketball?
It's because the ceiling is so incredibly low in golf, if it was actually open I bet some drunk guy named stew could walk up and get 5th place or something 😂
Your info is wrong. They dropped the handicap requirement to 0.4 this year
Every other country does their major sports like that. Only American sports have closed leagues.
Interesting and unique for sure, but earning a solo spot on the tour is nothing like winning a 3 point comp and then getting a spot on a pro team.

Gotta be a .4 or lower

Once you do the math:
It is statistically harder to get into the majors than Harvard.
The greatest game ever played of always be one of my favorite movies
So people know al golf opens are like this
Andre Ingram?

Well it’s not because you just compete on a course against yourself and a ball
Hey, a bunch of average American Joes were able to beat Pakistan in cricket as well, so don't count people out.
He finished fifth to last
You don’t understand how good that is. Better than 99% of golfers to ever play the game. Even at dead last.
Not bad
1.4 handicap or lower… 99% of everyone watching this video doesn’t apply 😂

Its golf. You dont need to be a prime athlete to play golf, you just have to be able to swing a stick 😂😂

Golf not a sport. Don't need to be athletic
To be any good you do
Very wrong sigh
I'm pretty sure you stole that basketball comparison from a fairly popular tweet.
I go to that school
I don't believe golf is a sport. It is a game. Sport requires continuous physical exertion
