okay everybody let’s welcome Phil
mikkelson the captain of High Flyers GC
and Bryson dambo the captain of Crushers
GC welcome guys so Phil I’m going to
start with you last week uh Brendan
obviously won live golf Adelaide it was
the first trophy for High Flyers GC and
High Flyers also had a Podium finish you
guys finished in third just take us back
there a little bit that moment and how
important that is to you last week in
Adelaide was a great week for our team
and seeing some success and results for
Brenan steel was really exciting for us
because we’ve been with him multiple
days you know every week in the
offseason watching him work and grind
and work on his game when we have a
couple of months off he’s just not
having any downtime he’s getting better
and better and better and to see the
results pay off and to see him play the
way he’s able to play the way we’ve seen
him play it’s very encouraging and
exciting for us as a team and then that
was our first Podium so it gave us a lot
of momentum and um it was really a
special week for so it uh gives us a lot
of momentum heading into to Singapore he
was highly highly complimentary of you
and basically said that he wouldn’t have
gotten that win if it hadn’t had been
for you um you talked a lot about your
your talks over coffee and your
encouragement telling him to swing
freely do you realize how much of an
impact that you have as a leader uh for
the rest of the guys on your team well
it’s nice of him to say that and it goes
both ways because I’ve learned a lot
from him driving the golf ball I’ve
learned a lot a lot from him on other
areas and we’ve uh we just kind of
shared things back and forth and that’s
what a really good team Dynamic brings
is it helps lift each other up and so uh
I’m appreciative uh that I’ve been able
to help uh help him and he’s done the
same for me and it’s it’s been a two-way
street brayon The Crushers are first in
the team standings you guys won the team
championship last year you guys have
really found the secret sauce can you
tell us what that is oh I don’t know
about Secret Sauce um I got to keep it
close quarters I’m not going to tell
everybody
everything but I will say that we’ve got
a great bunch of guys uh over here at
The Crushers and very lucky to have
picked them early on and uh We’ve Stuck
Together Like Glue um Gorilla Glue I
would say and they’re just solid people
more more importantly like you yes we
golf great we we do really well on the
golf course but they’re just a great
bunch of guys to to hang out with and
they’re great family men um that’s
really what I appreciate about those
individuals and uh
like Phil said we learn a lot from each
other and that’s the cool part about
what Liv provides is the ability to uh
feed off of each other and learn and
grow together uh it’s something that’s
not been afforded to us in professional
golf other than college and maybe a
couple Junior events but it’s certainly
a lot of fun and our secret sauce is
um I would say personally from my
experiences uh the camaraderie we have
between us and the trust we have in each
other so we are returning to another
major agent Market we’re back in
Singapore santosa Golf Club how
important is Asia to the growth of the
game globally and then also to the
growth of Liv I’ll start with you Phil
yeah being able to come here and bring
the professional golf at the highest
level to different parts of Asia here in
Singapore we’ve been to Hong Kong went
to uh Thailand a couple years ago it’s a
huge part of the growth of the game I
grew up being able to go out and watch
uh pj2 players in my backyard growing up
in San Diego and uh it was something to
be able to see the best players play and
be inspired to try to get out there is
is a very big part of dreaming when
you’re a kid and bringing this level of
play to these parts of Asia and seeing
um seeing the young kids and their eyes
you know the way they look at you and
and how much they love golf and how much
they want to get out here and so that
that’s a big part in the long-term
success of the game and as well as the
Cool vibe that um kind of transcends the
the old generation like myself into the
younger generation and trying to get
them uh to to to see the great aspects
of the game of golf provides and has
given so many of us uh to get them
involved and hopefully they’ll they’ll
experience some of the great things from
the game and Brayson what are your
thoughts on Asia and live golf it’s
awesome to inspire uh younger generation
in this part of the globe I think that
we’re too lucky being from the states
seeing professional golf at a super high
level uh at a young age and it’s
different over here um being able to
provide that opportunity and see like
Phil said those kids eyes just light up
when we give them a golf ball or sign a
a hat for them or whatever it is it’s
it’s inspiring not only hopefully to
them but to us it reignites us a bit too
and allows us to feel like we’re doing
something really cool it’s not really
been done um the way it I we think it
should be in professional golf uh like
Liv is currently doing so it’s it’s
certainly exciting for for me to see the
individual’s uh eyes light up and people
and it doesn’t even have to be junior
golfers it’s also old adults that are
just in love with the game and they see
us and they’re so appreciative of us
being here um we’re excited to provide
that more and more as years uh keep
coming great and kick it over to
Mike so you two have shot some videos
together obviously had a lot of fun uh
first of all Bryson just can you just
talk about the importance or when you
decided to kind of lean heavily into the
social video aspect ects of uh
especially from your own brand and the
teams that is probably like a 15minute
answer uh to summarize quite briefly I
felt like there was a
missing hole in the game of golf where
you look at guys like Mr Beast or um
David DOI or or whoever it is that are
influencing uh a lot of people in the
world and I saw that market back in 2020
and I said man if we could tap if the
golf industry if the if golf could tap
into that just a little bit how many
more followers we would get how many
more players we would get how the game
would just explode if we could just
barely tap into a percent or a couple
percent of that you know you got Mr B
has a couple hundred million followers
um and subscribers on one platform he
he’s got like close to a billion
followers on all of his platforms and
you just look at that
um and the possibilities that come with
garnering that type of audience is so
unique that I thought it was not only
important but necessary for someone to
get involved with the social media space
and create cool unique different content
that allows this game to grow I know
that we’ve uh talked about growing the
game uh out here at Liv and we’re doing
that globally but we want to continue to
enhance that I think what Liv has
provided us the ability to do not only
from A Team level uh High Flyers and The
Crushers like what we’re able to do as a
team uh commercially and social media
wise over the course of time but uh for
us to be able to Showcase uh our unique
abilities uh and different ways to
Consumers allows us to not only not only
showcase our our personalities but also
the great level of play we have and the
skill set that we have that can
hopefully inspire a lot more people to
play the game of golf and that’s what I
wanted to to try and accomplish is
creating that uh Bridge so we can bridge
that gap between normal individuals and
them seeing the game of golf and what
the game of golf can provide from a
relationship perspective towards others
there’s just this crazy symbiotic
relationship that a lot of people don’t
get the opportunity to see in their
course of their life that golf provides
um and so trying to bridge that Gap has
been a goal of mine since 2020 and
developing a great team around me and
playing some good golf and grow growing
as a person has all attributed to some
of that success but uh it’s definitely a
changing landscape if we don’t adapt and
move towards that sort of model of um I
would say just a social media
perspective an influencer model I think
we you know golf could get left behind
and that’s what I’m scared of I don’t
want that to happen that’s why I think
Liv is such an awesome uh product and an
awesome opportunity for us top golfers
to showcase our ability not just on the
golf course but on and around the golf
course um as an actor CU you’re a pretty
good actor right
Phil so so Phil you have been doing a
lot of videos for several years now do
you do you feel like you’re the OG of
golf viral
videos no I just say a lot of stupid
that goes viral I me but Bryson has
a beat and understanding on social media
that I I’m late to the party that uh I
don’t fully understand and I’ve been
spending time with him and I’ve been um
starting to understand it more and more
and I think that’s why we’re so excited
here at live is that a lot of the a lot
of these opportunities were not an
option for us before live like we didn’t
have an opportunity for elevated events
we didn’t have an opportunity for Equity
we didn’t have an opportunity to do our
own social media that was all controlled
and and uh shot down as we came to live
those are all now opportunities every
event is an elevated event uh we we all
we we have equity and we have the
ability to do these social media uh
posts and try to transcend the the game
of golf to different generations and all
of these things were not possible before
uh Liv came along and so we’re very
appreciative that uh we have that
opportunity and his vision is what I’m
trying to get better understand because
at 53 I don’t fully grasp you know this
generation and so forth and the
opportunities that social media provides
and as I better understand it um I try
to I try to
do take advantage of a little bit or or
do some of it but again he he’s kind of
the leader in that area and I’m just
he’s been very open about sharing you
know his Insight knowledge and helping
me um kind of kind of grow as well he
still has five Majors on me so I’m
working to get better at the game of
golf you know you got a lot of time
though a lot of time right thanks hey
Joy I i’ I’ve got a question for both
Phil and and Bryson can I start with
Phil uh the the 13th whole last Sunday I
mean we were all gasping as to what
happened in the bunker but what was more
important for me personally was how you
came out after that and made four
birdies and finished uh for all the
golfers the amateur golfers who go
through such you know incidents
regularly can you just share your
thought process as to what you were
thinking after that uh after that whole
and how did you just regroup together
and made those four birdies after that
yeah that was a difficult moment for me
and and it was uh it was not to use his
team’s name but it was crushing because
we had you know made a made a move and I
was playing well and I had a nice couple
birdies early on and then I went back
and forth in the bunker and left them in
and made an
eight I try to to just be present if
it’s not easy especially when you make a
big mistake like that I tried not to do
too much I tried to make a couple of
pars which I did um and just stabilized
around until I felt a little bit better
and then um after three pars I made a
birdie on 17 made a birdie on 18 and
started to turn around but I had to be
patient and I had to kind of stay in the
present because there was a lot of Mo
motivation still for me to do well for
our team to do well and um I I I feel I
just felt awful that uh I hurt our team
so bad in that moment and I hurt my
round and my opportun
in that moment but um you know I just
never gave up and just really tried as
hard as I could and over the course of
the next you know 13 holes I was able to
to get it turned
around and Bryson uh last year I
remember seeing you out at the range
even in this heat and humidity hitting
balls after balls uh and then something
turned around with Singapore and the
tournaments after
that can you just you know you remember
that time when you yourself said you
were struggling so much with your game
and this last one year what it has meant
to
you well a lot of it has to do with the
team that I have around me The Crushers
Paul Charles Bond um even the caddies
and just the people the support group
that I have around me it was it was a
brutal time last year and to just keep
it short and sweet um I didn’t really
like golf at that point in time I was
struggling to figure it out and
understand what was going on and having
the success that I’ve had and not being
able to perform at the level than I know
I could it was a weird mental feeling
for me but having that team around me
just continue to push and support me to
persevere on um it’s not how many times
you get knocked down but how many times
you get back up after you get knocked
down and that’s the mentality I kept
taking into last year and eventually a
couple things clicked in my swing uh
then got some equipment that really
worked for me really the big
transformation was the equipment piece
for me and then I go play well at Green
Brier and on from there and it’s been a
lot more stable because of the equipment
that I have and the trust that I put in
myself now and um certainly the the
level of golf is not exactly where I
want it to be but I know that I’m not
too far off and uh it’s it’s all because
of the team and the passion that they
actually had for me to to get better it
wasn’t a it’s okay buddy it was like
Bryson like go get it go figure it out
do it do what you need to do to go
figure it out so uh that motivation and
that team aspect is is really what
transformed my mindset into playing some
better Golf and if not some of the best
golf in my career and Bron a stat that
uh you know I was just seeing Crushers
are 57 under power for their Sunday
rounds and that is 14 shots better than
the next place team and it again it
started here in Singapore when you I
don’t know if you remember you were you
guys were 20 underpar in the final round
and on over here in Singapore yeah seven
shots better than any other team and
that was a run that has that you have
continued till this year can you just
put any uh you know finger to what what
do what you guys do well on
Sundays oh man it’s probably a lot
deeper than this but I I feel like I’ve
got uh four well three other players
that are just super consistent they
don’t shoot crazy overp par they don’t
always go super deep but they’re very
consistent and they shoot under Park
quite a bit um I’m kind of the semi-
sporadic one it can go super deep or you
know not be not too good and I think
that’s just kind of what having a solid
team uh means you’ve got some good
consistent players and then you’ve got a
couple that can shoot really low and
doesn’t really throw you out of the the
picture but I think the four scores
counting has really helped us because
we’re a pretty consistent team and we
always seem to shoot under par and get
better as the tournament progresses we
get more comfortable with the course we
understand the greens better we’re more
of a development team like like we get
better over the course of time I feel
like um that’s just their games in
general that’s what Charles does really
well Paul does really well and Bon we
all just seem to understand the course
better and and I think it’s just because
of our passion that we all have um for
wanting to play the best golf we
possibly can uh but consistently
consistency definitely plays a role with
with our team okay over
there right uh this question is for both
Phil and Bryson so obviously Li is into
its third season now you know so what do
you think is the future of Liv in you
know the the next 5 to 10
years wow uh you want me to start with
okay the future of Liv we know it’s
going to be here bigger better and and
better than ever before
um it’s just going to keep continue to
keep growing over the next 5 to 10 years
where I see it heading I think there may
be uh an opportunity
for um this to be just from from an
audience perspective even bigger um
you’re going to see a lot more
interactions from teams I think the
competition between the teams will get
heightened uh the rivalries will get
heightened there’s already some sort of
rivalries going on right now but as the
years go on and people are going to want
to win championships at world team
championship at the end of the year last
year the Crushers did I think there’s
going to be a lot of um rivalries to to
be produced uh that you’ll see and the
stories to be told uh I think will be
pretty pretty insane over the next 5 to
10
years Jo yeah I think that
um there there’s a lot of things that uh
that are going to transpire over the
next five or 10 years and um I’m very
bullish and excited about what that
means for live golf but um what but
there’s also a lot of uncertainty I
think that things that I do know is that
I think the quality of players will
continue to get better each year I think
that the ability and and the sites that
we move throughout the world will
continue to
um uh excite players and excite fans so
we’ll be going to to more countries
outside the outside the United States
that that really are are starving for
world-class professional golf um and
we’ll have a lot more receptions like we
had at Adelaide we had um you know the
with the Singapore and the tourism
Department getting involved and loving
the event that transpired last year and
wanting us to come back
um that seems to be the case right now
where a lot of uh countries are are
negotiating and trying to uh to get a
live event there and so I see the global
game of golf growing at an extremely
high level um I think that’s exciting
for everyone involved in the game
because we are going to reach markets
that we didn’t reach before I think it’s
going to inspire more golf courses
Inspire more Manu manufacturers selling
clubs and Equipment but also spiring
young kids to try to play golf
professionally um I I just see that the
game of golf is going to grow on a much
more Global basis because of um the
excitement and and the presence that
live golf
has okay
Kim hi guys um so you saw the first live
golfer win a major last year and you
know for Bryson you were Contender at
austa uh both of you have experienced
winning Majors as well so what would it
take you know to see a live golfer win
another major again
yeah um more Great Golf I think as live
golfers
are prepared as ever to play major
championships allows us the opportunity
to have some a little bit more time
every once in a while to get ready for
those
Majors um but I think uh we all have the
Firepower to play well and and win a
major
championship
um there’s a lot of major Champions over
here that know how to do it and get it
done so it’s just a matter of
time yeah I think it’s I think it’s just
U inevitable that um there’s so many
great players on this tour that uh
they’ll they’ll continue to win
Majors thank you there’s one more over
there Bryson uh just given the week you
had at austa just wondering have you
allowed yourself to like change your uh
change or basically the debate about 54
versus 72 holes do you think you would
rather play more 72
holes uh whatever the competition is the
competition is whether it’s six rounds
of golf or whether it’s one round of
golf you still got to go out and hit the
best shots you possibly can every single
time to me it doesn’t matter um if
you’re the one that’s going to hit the
best shots out there and make most putts
uh you’re the one you’re going to be the
one to win doesn’t matter if it’s
necessarily 54 or 72 or 6 days or one
day um so I’m I’m great with whatever
but isn’t there a merit for practice
makes you perfect I mean four four
rounds playing more four four rounds
regularly gives you a bit better shot at
it uh everybody has an opinion on that I
mean you you certainly seem to have a
opinion on four rounds as being better
and for me uh I came back with after
covid I didn’t play golf for a month and
a half two months and I went out and
almost won the colonial without any
tournament
golf so that kind of hopefully answers
that any
others no okay great good luck this week
guys thank you so much
