What is that music ? Just brilliant.
I do the same as Cam. Always start with putting just to keep my rhythm slow and continue that on to a few chips and then 30 balls or so full shots but trying to keep the rhythm constant. Worked so far 😊
"Viewer discretion is advised" 🤣. That was a classic!
Looking forward to Adelaide Cam. I hope you win the individual and the team smashes the rest, big ask I know but I know you boys can do it. Hope to see another challenge against Ron Chopper Rick, always a good laugh as well as some good golf.
He's Back!
7:50 shortest par 4 ever 😂
Ricky and Mr smith !!!! the combo i didnt know i needed !!!!
Always liked Cam but Liv not so much. It’s too cheesy and whatnot.😮
It’s so lame what TPC Sawgrass did to Cam. They basically cancelled him and act like he doesn’t exist anymore. He put his own hard earned money into Glen Kernan. Good on him.
Watching Cam’s wolfish grin as he turns genuine sounding questions about Rick’s game strategies into psychological warfare is something to behold. You can see how these blokes get to the top. So much poise and a natural ability to exploit the weak points in other’s games.
That was a great video, very enjoyable, maybe seeing an Aussie and being an Aussie was the difference. Great to see different players. 😀😀
It's cold Rick
Been waiting for the 10 shot challenge with cam!!!
That intro was incredible rick and your team chilled
oh narrrr
What a great video! Taking YouTube golf to the next level in quality. Absolutely stunning
Striping it, Rick.
Intro 🔥
@27:58 It would’ve, if he’d laid it down ! 🤓
horrible looking course
Always liked Cam Smith, great player!
2 hour video 👎
2 and a half minutes in, and it's already the vibe. This newer approach to the editing is delightful.
Next level production 💯💯
You know its going to be a good video when your intro starts with Otis👏
Greens like trampolines
Love this video, not keen on the camera mans tone telling Cam to button his shirt up, I wouldn't have taken that as well as Cam lol
Had to rewind and see the intro 6-7 times before getting into the rest – what an intro!
Man, you are driving well Rick👏👏
You ripper! Glad to see Cam on the channel for the challenge. Been hanging out for this since the start of the LIV content!
Money on Cam for the Masters this year 💰
Intro was sent sensational
I could be misremembering, but how often have you done one of these challenges at the pro’s home course? I think there’s a lot to be said for that. 10 shots against a tour pro, a major winner, at their home course? That’s a huge ask!
Its just unwatchable again because of the amount of adverts at least 4/5 each hole….
Great intro 👌
Brilliant stuff. Cam is a top bloke!
Brilliant production and great to see Rick’s game, mind and body in such a good place. 👊
Rick who???😏😏
When I upvoted the video, the thumbs up icon turned into a golf ball for a split second. Anyhow, nice video! Looking forward to seeing Cam play this season. Today in fact 🙂
Cam's short game is sublime
Driving the ball amazing Rick
Love these videos. What a chilled out nice guy Cam Snith is too. Great video Rick – your game is coming on – even the chipping is improving just no putts fell for you in this round.
This whole short film is incredible.
Cam is legendary… and the video is mint as well.
Well done team
Love the new vlog style format
