Can I Break 100 at the Genesis Scottish Open Course?

Can I Break 100 at the Genesis Scottish Open Course?

It is currently 7:30, teeing off at 8:00. Um, I want to do a score prediction. If I break 100, I’ll be happy. And you guys know what’s the big deal for me. I think maybe maybe 90. Let’s say 98. I’ll shoot 98 today. Uh, 98. Okay. Right. So, we’re going to go warm up at the No, wait. For real. You go break 100. I can break 100. Yeah. If I break 100, I’m happy with this weather. Yeah. All right. So, we’re going to go warm for the range, maybe do some putting, and then go play the course. Oh, and we were staying in these lodges last night. Uh, they were stunning. Um, yeah. [Music] That’s better. warmed up with some balls. Now we’re going to go onto the pungin. Um I debriefed on the inconsistencies handicapper 24. Um it’ll be fine. But today, my goal of today is breaking 100. I do want to break 100 today. Let’s go. Okay guys, first nerves. I topped off TBC. I topped off route counting down. Let’s see if I can top off this one. [Music] Stay away from the bunker. Stop. Stop. All right. Stop. Yeah, it stopped. I can see it. My longest iron is a six iron. That’s like 150 if I hit it. Yeah. Well, if you hit that, it’ll run down, you know. Yeah. cuz it’s you got breeze behind as well. Yeah, it will run. You know what? It just takes a few holes to warm up. It’s fine. Just down the right towards that that right bunker. Good. That’s fine. Yeah. Sensible play. Get the pin. Okay. Just use the bank on the left. You see where that pin is? It all runs away. Okay. But anything up the left, the bank brings it back nicely. So really, you don’t want to like see that big tree behind the green to the left. Mhm. That’s a good line. Just use the bag. Okay. It just all gathers it back. Good pin. But really, all you need is like 60 yards. Just a we bit left of the pin. Use my approach. Maybe don’t know how far that gets me, but if I’m in the rough, it could take some yardage off of it. Good. 5 yards left of the pin. 5 yards left of the pin. Good. Yeah, that’s very sensible. Well done. So, we’re on the green in. You’re on in three. Oh, it’s par four. It’s par four. That’s fine. We d shot. That’s good. Yeah, because it just runs through the green. You land it there and it’s you’re always over the back. But anything off this slope always comes back. Actually, I’m good. Yeah. See, after the T-shot of that, yeah, take a five in this hole, you may get a four. So, it’s slightly downhill. Okay. So, you just roll it down and there should be there’s not much movement in it. It’s not actually going to move much. Okay. Yeah. If anything, it may go that way a fraction. So, just like inside, right? But it’s almost dead straight. Okay. [Music] Okay though tryang bang bang think. Okay. Five’s all right. That was a good five. Yeah, you only have four. Yeah. 334 from here. [Music] Let’s see. To the front is 162 to the front. Okay. I think I’m like six iron then. One’s at 180 to the pin. Six iron up. Just so you see where the pin is. You want to be just right of that. See the red car, right? Okay. Okay. Got it. No. [Music] It’s all right. No trouble. Let’s get a picture from there. It’s okay. I Well, you know what? We light up. That’s what we did. I got all right here. Yeah. [Music] So, I mean, you want to hit it if I similar distance to what you had back there. Just like 605 and let it run out a bit. Uh, okay. Let’s do the approach again, I think. Yeah. Yeah. Thanks. Okay. Sit. Sit. Sit. It’s pun. Yeah, it’s okay. You struck it. Nice. Okay. It’s not going to break too much. It’s just about the speed. Just slightly down. It runs out pretty nice. Damn. Was good. Was good, wasn’t it? Yeah. I know. I thought the pace was good. did not stop. [Applause] Very good. That is solid. Well done. Really good. Well done. That’s a good story, man. Thank you. [Music] Look at that. Do you want to go the the five wood or you want the driver? Be safe. Yeah. And it’s a it’s downwind, isn’t it? Oh, true. Okay, cool. So, you can see that little bunker down the middle. Yeah. So, you’re lying just to the right of that. [Music] [Music] You fancy one of these? Yeah. An eight. Yeah. A nine or Yeah. Go with the the more lofted one just to get it back and in just to get myself out. Back to the start. Hey, [Music] did you see where that went? Yeah. Yeah. The bunker there. That’s good. Couldn’t see it. It’s a good strike. We would or iron six iron down. Let’s do six iron. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you. So down that center right. Big wide fairway. It will run. I would say hit it like 130 yards max. Let it run the rest. 7 hour. But it does come in from the right a wee bit. You want to be, you know, 5 yards right of that pin. [Music] Great swing. That’s really good. Okay. We had a Yeah. Yeah. I could see it. Yeah. That’s You like that? Okay. So, we’re four. Three over. No, you’re two over. No, but that was our fourth stroke. Oh, yeah. Okay. I just think it’s so interesting how you can duff a T-OT. But No, I just honestly cuz see when I used to play like 6 months ago, Yeah. If I duff it like on my home course, I’d pick up and not do the whole Really? Yeah. Cuz I really think you just failed in like you’ve Whereas now I like and I don’t panic when I duff a T-shot cuz it’s so recoverable. Whereas great shot for par. That’s why genuinely give up. When I used to play when I used to duff a t-shot, I genuinely pick up a ball and give up. That’s why I like for now to like do this. I’m like, “Oh, I like it. And I’ve ruined the hole. [Music] Good. I like that. Really like that. Okay, that’s good. [Music] Just these bunkers there. I mean, the rough down the left’s fine. Just you just want to knock it down between the bunkers. You want to? Yeah. Come on. Let’s give it a go. Let’s do it. Yeah. Two. Thank you. Let’s go. We got it. Hey. Oh, we’re going to be using that more often today. Okay. given that okay so it’s 180 to the pin okay 92 to the front as long as you get up that bank it’ll run on and that bank is just 80 yards so I think think of as 100 yards what would you hit 100 pitching wedge I think our pitching is like 90 and it’ll roll what is your nine angle 110 depends Strike it. Yeah. I mean, if it’s okay to go far, then I don’t mind the N iron. Well, yeah, you’re better. Over the back’s tough. As long as you get up that bank. Okay. Which is only 80. Okay. Then you’re on the green. So, is that a pin I aim for? Straight at it. No. It’s all right. Oh, you’re actually going to It’s actually okay. Yeah. You’ll be at the back of the green. That’s fine. So that’s all right. Okay. See, there’s a there’s a bit of both. Oh, okay. Obviously, you’re coming up the hill. Yeah. At the hole, it actually goes this way, even though it doesn’t really look like it. [Music] Steady, steady. [Music] Don’t bog. That’s a bogy. Yeah, that’s fine. So, this is just a we shorty. 291. 291. So, you can see the wall both sides. Yeah. Yeah. Just between these just right of the pin. [Music] There you go. Hey, absolutely perfect. That was Yeah, look at that. Well done. Loads of flag beam there. Even sensible. Just aim left of the flag. Okay. 101 to get up that hill is 92. I think it’s like a 110 yard shot. So ner Yeah. Okay. N certainly that. Thank you. That breeze will take a bit off it. So 5 yards left and then just commit. Trust thinned it again. That’s fine. Is that okay? Yeah. We’ll just run to the back again. I don’t know why they keep thinning them. Maybe slow down the swing a little bit. Should be putting there though, I think. Okay. Way by and you tell them it’s downhill and they leave short. I’m thinking, is that the best thing to tell them? Well, as far as if you tell me it’s uphill, I am It’s like it’s slightly uphill. It’s going to be slow and it’s just batter. But it’s maybe not the best way to describe it, is it? [Applause] You just with you have to just imagine how it’s going to roll. It’s all about seeing it before you do it, you know. Take a walk up there, though, cuz like these long ones are all about the speed. I would say overall, you’re just going to be aiming pretty much straight at it. So, it’s all about the speed, but it is uphill. So, it’s almost like it’s almost I want it to reach here and then it’ll just run. Break your putts down. You want it to be just You obviously got to get a roll up from here. It’ll roll. Okay. Okay. And it’ll run pretty straight. Okay. Get up. Get up. Get up. Get up. Get up. Going to come down again. [Music] Still straight at it. I’m scared to do the path. No. Is it just here? It’s just a tiny movement just as it dies. That how many putts was that? That was criminal. Let’s forget about doing so well. It was good to be there, too. We’ll just forget about the P. That’s fine. Don’t worry. Yep. That’s not That is nothing new, isn’t it? Nice and high is your safe one. I mean, you can run it up over his ball as well. You got two options. Wherever you’re most comfortable with. My running up. I’m already dips into the bunker if you want. Just go high then if you feel high. Which one do you use? Uh 56. 56. You know what? If it goes bad, it goes bad. No one’s going to die. Straight over his ball. Okay. Yeah, it’s safe. No, no, no bunkers there. So, that’s the main thing. It’s a good Yeah, cuz usually they get the little card, don’t they? Yeah. That’s not too bad. That’s like 215. That one right in the sort of middle right. Okay. I mean, you maybe could reach it [Music] just left of it. Okay. All right. Come on. What do you fancy? You going to go the wood or do you want six iron? Uh, six iron again. That’s all you need. It’ll run a Yeah, that’s fine. Oh, I can’t get the driver thing on my head. I hate that. Don’t think about it. 110, but obviously you want to go just right of that. 110 maybe nine iron. I mean, you don’t It might even be a wedge because the front edge is like a 100. Okay. If you land it up by the pin, it’s going to run forever. Okay. I think if you if you hit 100 yard shot right of the pin cuz if you go straight at it with a nine, land by the pin, it’ll run right to the back. Okay. And it does come around right to left. Oh, I did it again. That actually works. It’s not going to end up too bad. Is that too much? Stop. Stop. Stop. [Music] game was going downhill. Happy Want to be way left of that because that’s that’s the line. There’s bunkers that you will reach. Okay. So, see the rough on the left. Mhm. Just bang it up there. Okay. No trouble left. Oh, yeah. Good. That’s really good. Okay. Okay. She’s back. We’re back. That’s left of the bunker. So, that’s good news. All right. Look at that pin. I just want to play left. Play left. Okay. 107 to the pin. But it’s only like 80 to the front. So, into the breeze. You’re looking at your 100 yard shot. Okay. Nice pitching wedge again. Right, we’re making a divot. Back in your stance. Okay, down into the ground. Good swing. Really good. Run on. Run on. Should have seen the ones before. They’re great. No. No, they didn’t want to see that. Okay. Yeah. So, if it like rolled for like it’ll go a lot that way. Oh. So, I mean, you’re really going to have to be aiming out here. Come on. Come on. Come on. Stay here. Damn, that’s bad. You know what? The drive was good, the arm was good. Yeah, we’re fine. That’s the optimism I like, you know. 116 front. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it’s just should be good. Let’s pure the seven of iron. [Music] There we go. Okay, hold on. Okay, you see that it comes a wee bit this way at the end. Yeah. So, you’ll be want to start it out Yeah. about 2 ft left of the hole maybe. Okay. Okay. You know, and it’s it’s slightly up. Come on. Oh, you had it online. Right in line. Dang, dang dang. I think you know what? Once you make that first like pass hole, I’m like don’t scared from then on. I know. Go. There’s the tuft on the right. There’s a bunkers on the left. Just bang it between them. Okay. It’s about It’s about 400. You can you can get this in two. Okay. Good drive away. It’s definitely in reach. You hit it really well. thing went. Is it over that or? I think it is. Yeah, it will. Yeah, cuz if you’re over that, it’s absolutely fine. So, it’s 186 to the front. So, just a six iron down. Yeah. Six. Should I risk it with my woods or is it kind of hard to get that? Must be, isn’t it? I think you’re safe with a six. Okay. Okay. Thank you. And it won’t quite reach, but you’ll get close. So on the pen or just a fraction left of it cuz it’s an easier shot in with your next left side. [Music] That’s really big bounce. Big bounce. Hey, that worked. Yeah, that worked. Just a chip from there. Yeah. Good. Well done. Just come up the top here and have a we look. Okay. So, the pins at the back. The worst thing you can do here is go over obviously. Okay. If you land it on there, it’ll run out a little bit short is okay. Okay. If you do land it short, it’ll shoot on. Okay. So, just chip in some. Ideally, landing it like 5 yards onto the green. If you land it short, no big deal. It’ll kick forward. Okay. You certainly don’t want to be it all the way. My main worry is sculling it out with my 56. No, I would say that before. That’s what we were just thinking. I don’t understand it. You’re going to keep that in the video. Okay. Cuz in my mind, I’m like right here. What are you 45 yards? What What’s your What’s your favorite? Um, see, normally we just bump and run with a pitching wedge, but you don’t want it to be too runny though. You need it in the air a bit here. Okay, we’ll 56 it. Okay. I I was practicing them last week. We’re good. [Applause] We’re happy with that. Safe. They didn’t score that. You want to be out on my feet? Tell you what, we’ll try a new new theory. I’ll stand here. You just roll the ball to my feet. Okay. Okay. I’ll attend it. Yeah. Slow down. Slow down. Slow down. You hit it. I thought it was going to be closer. They run and run sometimes, huh? Okay, we give we give it a chance. Better there than short. Robbed. You hit that really nice. It did. You know, this didn’t break that much. Thought you had it. So, that bogey again. Yeah. Sorry. We’re going to put bogies. I don’t mind any bogey. It was almost first. Oh There’s so long. Well, oopsies. Classic slice. Was that a slice? That was like a I mean the the hole is right, but keep it left. Nope. Don’t run away. Good angle in 118. So, wind’s going this way. There’s not much. I would say 110 yard shot. 9. Yeah, that’s a one. Yeah, certainly run on a we bit. Yeah, thank you. Don’t go in the bunker. Do not thought I was going to go right in. It’s funny. It goes this way at the start, but then it straightens out. I think overall I would just be on this side of the hole. Okay. Oh, yeah. Not far off straight. Every time you leave it short, I need to press up. [Music] Okay, that was gentle. Fortunately, it’s downhill. I really lost the channel today. It was gentle. Let’s see. It’s in. That’s kind of going. Yeah. [Music] Hey, we’re on the green. That’s fine. Okay. Solid. That was good. We’re on hole nine. Lighthouse hole over there. Um I don’t know what my score is, but Kenny does and Paris does. So can feel the first part coming here. And you can see here what you got to do. Yeah, you got to get it just over that hill. And it is coming in left to right. Quite a long. Okay. I would say you want to just roll it just past my feet here. Okay. And then the hill will bring it down and round. Okay. [Music] Right. I like that. Okay. I was so scared to leave it short. This could be our first bar. Oh, you said first. First part. How about this first bar? Okay, you want to just roll it just on this edge of the hole. Good. Yes. The day. Brilliant. Great. Three good shots. Only took nine holes. as Yeah. Okay. Maybe the back nine, guys. Mhm. Better than mine. Mine was 10. Oh, yeah. We tried to We tried to find I couldn’t see yours. I was It was such a stiff swing. I was going to say, you haven’t swung today, have you? The bag music. I couldn’t see a land cuz it was like 195 to here. Unless it’s way down there. Now it really comes in from the right. Okay. You see that sign in the ground? Yes. You actually want to be right of that. Okay. And land short of it. Cuz if you land on the green, it’s gone. So, I mean, you only just you only really want to hit it about 50 yard. Thinking my 56. Yeah. Thanks. Cuz it’ll all come down. [Music] No. I mean, I’m done. It’s okay. Yeah, it was a tricky shot. That’s okay. Yeah, you can almost put it from there. You want to go just inside his ball cuz you know there’s no there’s no rules. I know a lot of guys that would putt it really but it’s whatever you feel gives you the best chance of getting close and do keep it further right than you think. Oh, I’m scared to use this. Well, use the putter if you want. It’s just like a long putt. put up to you. I guess that’s what you’re comfortable with. I think putting takes the strike off. Yeah, exactly. I think that’s what most people that play here a lot would put it. I’d use this. I mean, the line’s not great, is it? Yeah. So, hold on a further. You don’t want that. Did I not aim? Did I not aim right enough for that? Yeah. Not enough. You got to hit it up here. And this one needs to be quite firm. Really up the hill there. Good pot there. Really good. Good save. Getting the hang of these. [Music] Okay, well done. Well done. Good save. Just finished whole 10 and now we’re coming to the iconic halfway house. Um, apparently they do good cakes. Okay, we’re going to get some sugar. And this either straight at it or a fraction left. Okay. What a great shot. Great swing. Oh yeah. [Music] Oh. Oh, nice. Wow. Brilliant. Yeah, that’s good. All that freak for nothing. Could this be a first birdie? I’ll have a I’ll check from the other side, but it there should be just a little left to right now. Okay. Down. Two players in a rule. Who is she? I had to work hard for her, but Oh, I keep doing that. We’re okay. It’s over. I don’t know. Is it over it? I think it was. Yeah, I hope it’s over it. Over the bunker? Yeah, I’m pretty I think it went over it. Yeah. Yeah, it’s over. Yeah, I think hopefully. Oh, we’ll soon find out. We’ll find out what’s over there now. Huh? I’m in the bunker. Most important thing, hit them with full commitment. Okay. Full speed. It’s not easy. Not easy. We are in another bunker. Okay, guys. I don’t think we’re breaking 100 today. I want to Yeah, I’ll let you answer that. What’s the question? Can I hit a full shot out of this? Well, you could. I mean, there’s no lip in front of you, so yes. There. I hate this. 56° down here. Where’s the Oh, there it is. I wouldn’t go any more than a seven. Okay. Seven. Seven’s good. Yeah. That was not Is this a par five or par four? Par four. That’s fabby. I Yeah. So that’s all I’m putting down. In in any handicap event, you you don’t 12. Let’s see. A 100 yard shot. Pitching wedge is the club. Okay. Off. A nice shot. Lost it onto the green. Let it roll out. Okay. [Music] Straight at it. Oh, you know what? I didn’t shank it. I didn’t duff it. At this point, I will take anything. No, I’m not allowed to breaking it. Coming up the hill though. You had a hard day. What have you done today? I get all the time with people. Oh, you had a hard day. You paid off. Yeah, I paid off. I got paid off. See the last which was You’re back on the part train. That never happened. Good. It’s not going to go. That sounded beautiful, by the way. Yeah, it’s really good. Take up that long distance. Nice and safe. Fairway there. It’s good. So, it’s 230 to the front from here. Line is just over the edge of that spindly grass there. Okay. Okay. Do you want to hit a six or do you want to hit wood? You know what? I feel Let’s Let’s Let’s um You want to try your wood? Let’s go for the wood. I’m just going to go up there and keep an eye on it. Okay. I’ll give you a line, too. Okay. Just give me a minute. Okay. Right, we’re taking the risk. We’re hitting the fivewood because I’ve shanked stuck in a bunker. No, what I’m saying is like now at this point there’s no protecting the score. Okay, fire is getting like please there there’s no protecting the score. Okay. I know. It’s wild. Oh, that’s fine. I hit it. We are good. Okay, we’re back in the game. Okay. I say that every time I do a good shot. We’re not back in the game. Have not I’ve not broken 100, have I? Can you just stop worrying about it? I wanted to break it so bad. Kicks. Yeah, we didn’t get a bunkers. I can’t believe we did that. You had bunker lessons with Andy? I did. I I don’t No, I didn’t. No. Well, come on. Why you I know you work. Why would you? I know. I know. I am so bogged down in my swing. I’m so Stop. You need to get out of that. I know. But see, you get so distracted by your swing and you’ve hit good shots. Yeah, I do. That you ignore. I know. 112 to go into that we breeze. Weird lie wasn’t sitting down. Yeah. When you get these, you kind of really put it back in the stance and just get a bit steep. Yeah. It’s hard to get a good strike in them. That was not an easy line. It was almost like it was almost like in a divot. Okay. Okay. Oh, this is a better lie. All right. So, you want to go high obviously. Okay. You want to ideally land it just on the front. 67 about 50 yards through there. What do you fancy? Don’t know if my approach is too long. So, maybe 56. I don’t know. Uh, I mean, if you’re going to hit a 56, you got to hit it quite hard, huh? We I mean, that’s what you want. Okay. You know, up in the air is what you want. Okay. A hard 56. Yeah. Okay. Just back in the stance a we bit. Okay. Okay, take two. Oh, nice. A little bit right there. Just a little bit left. Just left of the pin a wee bit. Okay. No. Why did you hit it that hard? That was what you needed with the last one. I know. Such an idiot. I’ll try and actually I like my I like a bump and run. Well, you’re you’re pitching. Yeah. Like I said, now it’s just survival golf. Let’s get nice. Played that really well. One’s on though, isn’t it? Oh god, it does. Yeah. Thank you. It’s the first shot she spoke positive and it came up with. You know, that’s the only shot I love doing are those ones. Well, that’s a good shot to have. Yeah, she actually those too. Yeah. Oh, right. Okay. So, that’s why you’re okay. It’s just going slightly up. That wasn’t bad. That was okay. finish the hole. Like I said, I am overcoring. We both know I’ve not broken 100. I’d say 100. 100 is 101. Not 17. Um I’ve not broken 100. But But no, no, no, no, no. But let’s try and bogey max bogey these last two holes. Okay. Yeah. Let’s try and par them. Yeah, par them. Okay. Okay. Oh my god, you guys have such hole. Okay. Okay. All it needs is one one good shot here. That’s all you need. Or let’s break even on these two holes. We’re breaking. Okay. You just struck it really nice, too. Down. Down. Jeez. You hit it really well. Kind of far, isn’t it? Sure. That’s okay. That’s not bad. Last par through. Mhm. It’s a great shot. That was really good. You hit that more than 120 through there. I did. And uh yeah, good shot. Yeah, that was nice. I reckon you landed about pin high. We go high. Yeah. Okay. So, it’s a we bit fiddly, isn’t it? You actually to get it close, you actually have to go up here. Anything there is just going to go to the right. Yeah. I think I’m here. I will come down. Yes. Brilliant. Outrageous. Do you know how hard that is? That was impossible. That was so difficult. Yeah. I don’t think you could have better shot than that besides going down the hole. You could you can put 40 balls down. You might not beat that. So, it’s down the hill. You just got to roll it gently. I say just go straight at it. Just roll it gentle. It’ll it’ll run out. Yes. That was one of the best up and downs. Yeah. Unreal. Up and down of the day. Well done. Thank you. The driver is going to get you behind the wall. Okay. Cuz the wind’s really not doing much. We’re on hole 18 and you’ve got the wall in front of us and you said that’s 200. 205 to reach the wall. 205. Okay. So, we’re going to hit my fivewood and we’re going to strike it good. Excellent. Really good. Okay, last t-shirt of the day. D. Great shot. I was I was going to d4 and we’re taking the fivewood again. Solid shot. Okay. Okay. Bit too late in the game to be hitting them good now, but that’s fine. Strokes make par. Come and have a we look at this. Obviously, when once it gets on here, if it just reaches that, it trickles down. It’s fast. The last bit. Okay. So, you can either try and land it here or you can run it up. Run it up. I mean, you could put it. It’s either It’s either a putt up or landed it here and let it run. How would I land it here? 56. Yeah, just like pretty much like the the last hole. I I I’m going to say 56. I just hope to the potter. I don’t know. I don’t know. Let’s see 56. Let’s see 56. Okay. As I finish it properly, the pictures on the scorecard. I hope this is the right decision. Yeah, cuz I’ve had a few good shots with it. Good one in the last hole. Yeah. So, what’s just left of the hole? Yeah. A good three yards left of the hole. Nice. You played that absolutely perfect. That is so good. Go in. Go in. That’s unbelievable, isn’t it? No shot. Oh, I wasn’t recording. You were live. Oh my god. Oh, thank you K. That was good fun. I called him. I’m like, that’s perfect. You know what I was thinking to myself? This edit would look so good if this went in. That’s unbelievable, is it? Well done, King. The last two are like off the charts. I do for what? I I’m not tallied up. What are you tied up? I’m not don’t know what my score is cuz I’m on a calculator. You can do it in your head. That’s my 18 holes finished. Without the um bunker disaster, we took that as a net double and I shot 96. With the bunker disaster, we definitely shot over 100. But without the bunker shot, that went from a six to 14, I think. Um however, hold out on 18, so I’m taking that as a one. So, thanks for watching.
