The Masters is done for another year — and Rory McIlroy made it look frighteningly comfortable. Baden and Clappy break down how a man who ranked second-last in driving accuracy for the weekend somehow won by three, why Augusta may be more forgiving than it used to be, and whether any of the chasing pack ever really had a chance.

Then the conversation turns to a topic that lit up the coaching world during Masters week: Brandel Chamblee's claim that Scottie Scheffler has a "steepening move." The boys dig into why the terminology matters, what the camera angle wasn't showing, and how the steep-vs-shallow debate — however it's framed — keeps causing real confusion for everyday golfers.

They wrap up asking a question that's been nagging all season: where are the new personalities? With the same veterans filling the leaderboard week after week, is the game crying out for its next superstar — and is the coaching world doing enough to find them?
