Adelaide South Australia and the Liv
Golf League are a match made in heaven
more than 100,000 fans will pack the
fairways of the Grange Golf Club this
weekend and it promises to be even more
rockus entertaining than last year cam
Smith is a National Treasure down under
his all Aussie Ripper GC are the local
favorites but John ra Brooks kker Dustin
Johnson and Bryson Des Shambo are dead
set on ruining Cam’s Homecoming this is
live golf
Adelaide Thomas Peters of the range gos
on the T at
14 oh he likes the looks of this one
David yeah oh inches from just rattling
in the cup well let’s take you to the
watering hole for the first time Carlos
Ortiz of
tqu the smoke hasn’t cleared yet
this isn’t going to be any fun harlo not
at all Carlos Ortiz for
birdie great start for
[Applause]
torque oh man down good catch though
good grab that’s what they call a Mark
when you’re playing aie Rules
Football and we’ll take you back to the
first in Sergio Sergio just got a little
pitch into this uphill slope and greens
are a little bouncier than they were
last year it’s delightful the short
Sixth and Eugenio
jakara Ripper by the way are in the lead
in the team competition three under
par
oh there’s one hasn’t
chance Brandon Grace at the power three
14th man they’re dancing around the
whole next to the green of four and
Dustin Johnson for birdie yeah you know
what I’ve notice these first couple of
hoes DJ not taking anywhere near as much
time reading his Parts as he has done
the last couple of years AJ’s still very
much involved but it’s a much quicker
process and it works yeah rely on those
instincts those childlike instincts and
it never
fails Luigi used
Hazen yeah he could be a factor this
week the way he plays so precise whil
that was happening Mito Pereira who’s
had a rough start to the season his best
finish was tied for 31st in jeda he’s
better than that and he’s had a really
good start this is for birdie at 13
perfect and Meo is two and AP par and
that got to K to four under back to the
watering hole and we have a couple of
Birdie putts for mess’s lman and Jones
and Jonesy will be first
[Applause]
you beauty Matt
Jones this for birdie and to get a share
of the early lead with janichi Kuma and
we are all ready Arlo oh oh there you
go it’s just amazing how quick these
greens are they are so leean has three
consecutive birdies so to janiro Kazuma
he’s running hard
yeah somewhere in a Cracker Barrel the
tablecloths are
missing started at 15 that was for
birdie at 16 and he rolled that one in
at 17 so an excellent start for janiro
Kazuma and the iron heads are in Solo
second place
too this is not a good spot for ramuan
no Jerry he’s got a downhill light
swings
restricted by that slope behind him good
news is he’s got a lot of green to work
with consistent from hole to
Hole now it’s a fine
shot cam Smith he’s got a long range
here to save his par this played the
hardest hole last year it’s just the
hardest green to find on this golf
course in position that can put himself
short side
it’s just difficult this turning a ton
to the left on the live
[Music]
[Applause]
line Sebastian Munos with his second
shot at
15 eagle for Sebastian mun and or k have
had a flying start here in Adelaide Andy
Ogle tree the high flyer is this for
Eagle at 10 that certainly
helps well we mentioned it was a
gladiatorial like entrance onto the tea
at the watering hole so perhaps fitting
that it’s Legion 13 who have reached it
named after the Roman legion and here’s
tyell
Hatton oh
oh
wow Meo Pereira his second shot at 16
he’s at the top of the
pylon so I’m expecting something rather
good to happen
here Mito Pereira is having a day and a
moment ago Pat Perez this was for eagle
hat was one of those caught in Honolulu
for two
days didn’t get much
practice Matt Jones on the tier 14 this
is how fast he hits every single gol
[Music]
shot I mean you simply cannot get any
closer the that
no cam Smith second here on the fifth
whole location’s tucked behind that
greensight bunker he’s got a nineiron
absent and strong wind into him this is
a controlled nineiron
interesting bird song you don’t hear
anywhere else in the
world I want I want to see a cabur you
ever seen a cabur I have
it’s like a cross between a seagull and
a German
[Applause]
Shepherd that’s a wonderful overhead
shot of the fifth degree now Cam’s going
to go ahead and go first this should
move to his
[Music]
right say old magic from Cameron
Smith Mark lechman with his second shot
at 14
[Music]
left that in a tough spot and that’s a
great
shot Harold Varner the third for birdie
at
[Music]
11 and he’s got it to two
[Music]
under
try this for birdie at 12
[Music]
Scott Vincent of the iron heads for ber
at
two they’re looking good so far backward
was earlier to get him to three under
and one back high heads tied for the
team lead car Ortiz from the
rough kind of punch one in for the 18th
[Music]
Green Oh and he did it
beautifully Carlos Ortiz on the 18th
green for the outright
[Music]
[Applause]
lead oh Cam Smith this for an eagle it’s
going to move to his
[Music]
right oh Cam Smith making his move the
Aly hero three under bar great news for
Ripper as well who closed the gap on Tor
to two and his putter is red hot in
Adelaide well let’s get you caught up
with a couple of our star elsewhere at
the Grange Golf Club Terell Hatten a key
member of Legion 13 who are going great
guns in the team competition that was
for par at 15 for tyell who keeps it at
one under the par his score is counting
GMAC enjoying a new lease of life after
joining smash GC he’s been a key member
of that team so far this was for Eagle
at 13 not too far away but that birdie
gets GMAC to two under par the Majestics
have reached the 12th a watering hole
it’s Henrik Stenson to te it off
first
oh CL
flip on the fifth green
Kazuma this for the outright
lead he is cutting
beautifully be John Ram from Little
under 35
ft An Almighty Roar for it’s that birdie
for John Ram who is four under bar well
the action has been electric so far here
at the Grange golf club we have nine
holes to play on day one of live golf
Adelaide well it’s time we got to caught
up with Taylor guch who is the reigning
Adelaide Champion one of three victories
uh last season and he was our individual
overall Champion he’s three in the par
so he started well once again he’ll have
to go some to matches pair of 62s on
Friday and Saturday last year but that
was his second shot into 15 Danny Lee
won in Tucson last year only won a top
24 finish since but he’s flying today
that was for birdie at six he’s four
under the iron heads are leading on 12
under one Clair of Ripper janichi r
Kazuma this was for Eagle shut the front
door janiro Kazuma eight
under oh Bubba did in fact just come out
of his pitch mark here but a very tough
shot not a lot of green to work
with oh how about that that’s just
magical Carlos Ortiz on the T6
oh
[Music]
yes so good from there back to 12 now
not such a difficult bunker shot for cam
here a little quick in the last 10t or
so he be easy enough to run it all the
way to the the left edge here if you
weren’t careful
[Music]
what a piece of judgment
uhoh that would have just about equally
brought the house down as an ace
yeah over at the seventh Carlos Ortiz
from the greenside
bunker yeah that should be a tap in four
birdie for
Carlos that’s Pat Perez over at the
first this is for birdie another one
with great memories of of Adelaide made
that long birdy put at the watering hole
didn’t he last year and danced around
the green he’s at it again here Pat
[Applause]
Perez Anthony Kim his third shot at the
11th a beautiful bunker
shot DJ goes oh get on
it up at the 16th TJ with another short
one and this is this is missable because
it’s so quick he’s above the hole here
he just got to keep keep that positive
stroke
here
[Applause]
done Carlos Ortiz has climbed the
individual pylon but also helped torqu
into a tie for the team lead this is for
a third consecutive birdie for Carlos oh
yes
he’s seven under par one back of
genichiro so three straight birdies for
him well you’ve just seen Danny Lee tie
the lead the 10th hole is a half five
this is his third shot he
did oh yes he
[Applause]
did Caddy race it’s the clicks at
12 oh it’s a close one
[Applause]
Oh I thought a ham got he pulled a hamy
yeah Waco nean the captain of Tor his
second shot at
15 his team just one back of the iron
heads on 19 under
par let go that club right at impact
it’s almost always good when he does
that and he does it quite
frequently yeah little Rye grin
there John going with a putter again
from a long way off the green he’s been
strong very strong both efforts one
about 7 feet one about 20 ft pass the
hole that’s not too strong that’s really
well done yeah now this for par for John
ROM just stops The Rock John Ram after
consecutive Bogies and he remains at
three
under a banser his second shot of four
oh right time the can slam dunk from
Abraham
[Applause]
Manon what are your major takeaways
chaps from the first day here well the
scoring has been absolutely fantastic
there’s no question about it uh but this
is what happens when you give you know
these golf artists a perfect canvas
to paint their Masterpiece there it’s uh
the conditions have been perfect very
little
wind 66 six under par for Matt
Jones and it’s been a magnificent Friday
it’s amazing to think we’ve only had
four days of live golf in adelade so far
but we’ve got two to come and it’s going
to be electric that’s the individual
pylon going into Super Saturday
wonderful stuff from janok Kazuma nine
