How would a scratch golfer compare to a DP World Tour Professional in all aspects of the game of golf? Big thank you to Team Titleist for arranging this & letting us use their awesome performance centre!
I challenged DP WORLD TOUR PLAYER Matthew Southgate to some random golf challenges, including:
Long Drive
Hitting The Number
Chipping Contest
Bunker Contest
You can follow Matthew on Instagram: @matthewatsouthgate
He’s going to I just knew I was coming here today so I thought I’d be polite and put the tight I’m going to my pure Titus TSR you can you can use your walk hi guys I’m surrounded by team tit list here um welcome back to the golf Supply I’m not even used to this no and then I me you I’m better I was uh we’re over at the performance center at Wen we’ve been down here as you’ve seen probably that video will be out before this one we have gone through well Matt has kindly gone through a bit
Of a ball fitting to show you the difference in characteristics between it was priv 1X and AVX wasn’t it but then he also hit a dimpless golf ball and hit a differently how would you even describe that one side thickness bigger than the other golf ball and rat hooked
One left and then put one into the Marquez nth pole on on the other one so if you haven’t seen that video go check it out but I thought whilst I’m down here whilst I’ve got a DP World Tour player at my disposal which doesn’t happen quite often I’ll see how much
Better a DP World Tour player is at golf than what I am no pressure so what we’re going to do is we have got a driver station set up here we’re then going to set up a bit of a pitching chipping station um onto the green over there
We’re going to do a bunker station and a bit of like a wedge Play Station um fre shots from each station and uh so there’s three points pretty much to be one from each station starting on the driver station is going to be distance off the tea combined with accuracy so
We’ve got like a window that we’re trying to hit into I haven’t hit a single golf ball today Matt just chucking that no well that’s my excuse what’s your excuse you going to get any out there or you got bit of a dodgy KN
Okay he got bit of a dodgy KN you want to leave the take the honors I can well M have a good one what team do you to um man united you are going to the cleaners lovely I don’t know how hard to it this
You’re a bit of an unknown yeah I mean I’m probably don’t the straightest I wouldn’t worry too much be left Edge but yeah left Edge um it’s not a fair in the world middle of the bunker so like that flag in the distance is the middle of the Fairway
The very white one at the end that’s the right Edge and that’s the left Edge you set the track man up look you you can’t Funk it it’s in the middle of the bunker at the end how far did it go no 291 not
Bad we got we got T I’ve SE it all was it just team titless that gets the teeth thank you that’s Mr the Fairway a it Matt yeah has it yeah yeah near the M1 than the Fairway okay well you take the first point there I don’t think that that’s too generous
Of you really oh I’ve cut got it it’s on The Fairway though just you calling that Fairway it’s comfy and it’s about 10 yards left of that flag yeah yeah all right come back at the end it was horrible come back at the end not gone
Very far 276 all right let uh the old heel cut that’s got to be one one that a it got that was necky mate that’s got to be past mine now I even necked it was necked I’ve done you he done Me 2 N come
On I just got a catch on I’ve got a catch on come on I didn’t know whether you were giving yourself a pep talk or getting my head I catch one and now I’ve got you here no chance step on this one go on all right give it
One that’s not bad that one all right I was bad that one was it I’ll give you that one Matt to be fair that was pretty good 286 305 say no more oh a hell of an effort ain’t got the launch for it I don’t think mate you might have it on
The run though maybe 305 to be 298 298 so that’s that’s a 3-0 clean sweep on the first All Right Moving On Moving on right so we’ll change the challenge because we’ve got couple of tour players on the green doing a little bit of work we’ll we’ll
Have fre wedge numbers then okay so we’ll call like 100 can be the first yeah then we’ll go like 85 yeah and then like 110 or yeah well I’ll call a number for you you call a number for me so I’ll start with you 100 okay yeah yeah
Yep bang on it about 100 on the dot on the dot on the nose on the nose surely not 97 that ain’t bad though mate you give me a number 106 106 oh my God hair clean that might be 106 really pull left 16 all right go on uh your number you
Got same wedge in your hand yeah I can change so can I or do I have to use no you can change if you want let’s go let’s go 76 yards close how close very 82 spinning back there was it yeah it was ripping 91 91 right we we’ll keep as
Is oh that looks good long maybe 104 out that didn’t look far did it didn’t did it you done me again there on that yeah yeah lovely 5 n right now I want you sit t a little bit longer hit me like 115 what do you want 50° uh
It’s going to have to be in this weather it would normally be the 54 but I’ll have to just nudge this let me clean that for you m just some service where’s your T you a’t got T 115 115 please that’s pretty good I think two or three
Long I don’t know that’s 111 is a similar yeah it’s about 112 oh 111 that’s a surprise so four yard discrepancy I thought was going to be long sorry uh 117 keep me 50 sh on it don’t know oh 114 I nicked a point there you have aen you I’ve nicked
A point 51 you have five 51 no clean sweep like that unlucky time right there you go so five to Matt one to me as you probably expect going to move on to little chipping game yeah yeah around the green they so you we get on the CH
We take a few different wedges of us I’d like to maybe double up this round we have like a a five ball five ball round on this have whatever you like do what you like it’s your your game your rules I’m going to put it just to see if I can
Maybe try and get back into the game a little bit we’ll have a five ball one on this going to pick a few different flags to hit chipping comp right so shot number one rotating how are you seeing this how are you playing this i’ P it
But I if we’re not in a if you’re in a chipping car I’m going to chip it I’m going to land it about halfway I think with what 50 I’ve only got a 60 and I’ve just 60 everything okay all right so I see this shot was like
55° with like I don’t know how soft the greens are but I would be thinking like 60% carry 50% carry 50% roll out and it’s breaking right to left so yep yeah oh we played it well oh that’s lovely lovely shot cheers see I thought this is
Where this is the stronger part of my game Matt you know you look like a gol for there yeah a little bit oh that soft would it oh dug in there it 52 right next flag I felt like I played that quite well you just yeah it bounced upwards rather than forwards
Is it next we’re going to go to this back right looks a bit firm oh it is a bit firm very I mean you’re not going to struggle get inside that one I don’t hope yeah go they stops they do they do one one one one my honor right your
Honor we’ll go what’s that 62 62 six no yeah 62 62 same flag again we’ll go same flag then we’ll move to the one on the left oh You’ made it it’s not bad been nice wouldn’t it oh that’s st stop so quick that one yeah 72 right we’ll go back back
Flag lovely little you putting a little bit of draw that’s a shot that isn’t that it is little draw one well the ball’s a little above your feet there in it so there’s no point fighting it go go it’s killing me that is that that spin right one more to that flag is
This our last ball each this is number number five oh that 82 it’s got to go as well a it it’s going to stop line judge it’s you Matt I think it’s Matt is it sake what to do is just get it past there right last
One’s bunkers what’s that now 102 92 92 all right well we’ll go free from the bunker so I’ve lost the match the war the war has been won but the battle’s still still going we’ll jump in the bunker to the same flag we’ll do 60° she only got the one
Club I was going to set a m going to set a might all it played it nice played it nice yeah that that takes it to 10 two to you though mate I think the big thing there like watching you set up over that ball there is that your where your weight is
Where the shaft is and the face angle that you set it looks like it matches up okay I don’t want to go there I’ve it a good one already knock it in what about an it in off does that count that that doesn’t softer wouldn’t it actually you’re the way you grip the
Club actually promotes being a fairly decent bunker player I say cuz you do get that you do get that down I think that’s probably why your short game is is a stronger part of your game because where your right hand sits slightly under the club it does it does encourage
You to let that club go whereas if you got your hand on the top of it’s very easy to be drivve it can’t you know all sorts of different grips cause different problems I’m very weak in my left hand so it’s very easy for me to get driving
Cuz I got to get some power from somewhere you know all right we’ll change the flake for this last one then we’ll you’ve only got a 60 but we’ll go to go to back sort of middle to right ridiculously good that is man and I think we can comfortably say that it’s
Up and down fre for fre there isn’t it fatted it Matt pleasure thank you mate really appreciated that um you’re on you got your socials in you Instagram and stuff we’ll put all the Matt’s Instagram handles down below again thank you to Titus as always James all the team for
Having us down mate this is one of the one I put it on a story my Instagram story this only one of my favorite places for golf in the UK tit performance center in Wen you can come down here and get fit for all of your clubs as well if you’re interested in
That go down to the titless link in the description you can book in to come and get full bag fitting um but yeah the answer to the question at the start of this video is what is the difference between a DP World Tour player and your average Joe Blow on YouTube and the
Difference is a lot 122 would it 122 yeah cheers man see you L take care

No Ash. You can’t. Lol. 😂
Those kids are good Ash…You're +1 nearly +2 and better than the vast majority of golfers worldwide, I dont believe you will get close to him though.
The difference is bigger than the gap between scratch and ten. They just do everything that bit better than us.
Matts bunker play was/is so good 👏 CLASS 👍
Ash when are going to be seeing George play with you hope your playing with him this summer he's missed so much
Just made it look so easy too. Great video against a great player 👍🏻
Ash, great video buddy.
Nearly got the better of Matt on the driving.
Top video that, get him on the channel to do a 18 hole match
Ash’s new nickname should be Thomas the Tank Engine – I counted at least 23 stations in the first minute 😂
Absolutely brilliant 😊😊
Ash, I can't lie. I'm very disappointed with you. Nothing to do with the golf,i always enjoy the content, and I didn't expect you to beat a tour pro, but supporting Man Utd being an Essex lad unforgivable, I also feel Matt thought the same,he didn't say anymore on the matter.
