Michael Brennan's Recent Fall Surge: PGA Tour Success!

Uh, first, uh, how, how great was it to finish off the season, uh, as strongly as you did really just winning twice on the PGA Tour, uh, quite the role in the fall, man. You're quite the fall golfer. Yeah. Um, I mean, it was, it was awesome to finish the year how I did. Um, the year was, I thought it was okay prior to that, you know, I had played some majors that was fun, um, made some cuts, but really no great, super great finishes. I'm not 100% sure why I've played so well in the fall. I played well in the fall last year as well, but a better late than never, that's for sure. I was doing the math, Michael, just because you've won six times basically since last August, winning three times on the Americans Tour. You won three times on the PGA Tour. Of course, that one in Utah is one that was your debut PGA Tour. A big win to kind of get your status and got yourself playing on the PGA Tour this season. but then i started doing like more in-depth math of okay this guy's won six times between the months of August, September and October and i started thinking too i was like all right this guy's up to 18th in the world he's got three wins on the PGA Tour here's a big event that they typically play in September, the Ryder Cup or the Presidents Cup i this is hey this is a pretty positive trend when i go and look at Michael Brennan's stat profile yeah if i'm Jim Furyk i'm having to look at like this guy peaks this time of the year good stuff maybe you could send Jim that info um is there any reason for that you think like i mean i always felt like i played well like uh kind of to start the year like the summer i always kind of struggle fall i always seem to play well is it were you that way kind of in college golf i mean i know it was kind of split seasons like did you ever struggle any time of the year kind of in college season yeah i have no idea honestly like I have no idea maybe no rivalry I could think of is like I'm deep into the season so I've you know in a good routine or something like that and kind of found the the rhythm of things but I would like to think that wouldn't take me five months to figure out um but maybe it does I have no idea okay so you kind of mentioned the season was like in your words more on the so-so side nothing that was extraordinary but like when you look at the wins it's like all right well you know you're able to build up uh just like really banking more years on the PGA Tour especially the further along we get in the championship series how important that is bigger events uh playing against the best for you like how much uh confidence and and really time does it give you to continue to develop and not feel just pressured by you know getting that PGA Tour card back year after year it has to feel comfortable that you can keep you know developing the way that you like yeah no it's it's great um winning in utah knowing that i had two years was huge um and it was the most important for me i felt like in the middle of the summer where or maybe late spring i wasn't you know necessarily playing great my fedex ranking wasn't exactly where i wanted it to be and i thought that knowing i had an extra year like obviously there is like i want to play well now i don't want to to play well next year um and i'm not trying to i wasn't writing off the season by any means but it gave me a little bit of comfort knowing that all right if i don't like figure things out right now it's not the end of the world because i still do have status next year um and i think that that was probably a bit of a calming thought out there you know knowing that it wasn't the end of the world if i you know didn't make the playoffs this year or whatever it may be and maybe that helped a little bit you know with some of my good play later in the year because I wasn't putting a ton of pressure on myself and it's I hope I'm not in that situation next year and I play good golf from the you know from the get-go and I don't have to think about that but I do think in the middle of this summer it was a really nice thing to be able to kind of rely on and fall back on.
