In this video, you are going to see me take on not one, not two, not three, four, five, but six of the very best tour pros in the world. [Music] See, it started knocking down that. What a shot. We’re going to be testing out the skills of major champions, tour winners, elite caliber players to see if they can come out on top against me. So, we’re over here in the beautiful United States of America in the charming state of Connecticut and we’re here with Titus at Wanog. Wenogue. I I I’m not entirely sure how to pronounce it. So, we have six skills challenges against six tour pros. We have short game, we have irions, and we have driving. And the task is simple. to take on each of these Torros in a matchplay point situation to determine who is better at golf. Torros or a YouTuber. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Okay. All right, we’re off and going. We got 10 stations. We are going around the green now. Short game for you, mate. Seen you play before. You’re exceptional from all of these distances. So, you beating me today should be really a foregone conclusion. As soon as you said a 60 yard pitch, I thought to myself, that’s about the worst shot that you could choose. Yeah. And I’ve definitely I’m not backing myself. Not at this station anyway. Maybe the other ones. Have we got 60 yards exactly here? I don’t actually know. I eyeballed it. Okay. 67. Oh, I should have been honest. I should have been honest. No, that’s the opposite of what I should have been. What’s the word? Dishonest. That’s it. That That was spinny. That That came out really nice. All right. Had a good chance there, Pete. Spun a lot like that actually, didn’t it? It did. Cool. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go. Oh, pretty close. This is your decision. Who is it? I’ll give you another chance. This is your decision. Who is it? [Laughter] One n Aaron. Great. Well done. Well done, mate. Going to go gap wedge. Gap wedge. Yeah, it’s probably one of the hardest shots in golf. And the sand is actually quite thick as well when you’ve got compact sand and but here slight downs slope thick sand. It’s um yeah, it’s one of the hardest shots. Setup wise, you just a little bit open or what’s the a touch open? I feel if I get too too square and go gap wedge or pitching wedge, I feel like the sole doesn’t really work through the sand particularly well. So, I still try and have a little bit of loft on the face, strike it a little bit closer to the ball and just hit it with a little bit more speed as well. I think anything within probably 20 ft here is a great shot really. Oh, sit. So, um, so we’ll take that. We were you playing for that unfortunately. No, no, no. Was trying to probably land it just short of the pin. Right. Okay. So, it was definitely a little clean. Um, but it came out well overall. I’m going to go Can I single shot? 54. No. Well, definitely two. I think somewhere in between those impacts, mate, we would have had a good man wants numbers. 53. 53. What you going with 60? And then go sandwich. Sandwich. Feel like the greens are are pretty soft. It’s definitely sits a little bit back to front as well. So, just feel like we can control height and spin a little bit better with this versus really nice. Such a lovely tempo on that. It’s really cool. I’m going to go I’m going to go six. Just feel a bit more comfortable with the loft, but obviously need to try and fly it. Yeah, easy. Yeah, easy. Yeah, I didn’t quite have that spin there, Aaron. What I was really looking for it looked like with the way it was struck, felt like it could have started to zip, especially off a bit of that back slot back. I think it might have just hit like the bottom, maybe a pitch mark, maybe just like scooted up the green. Yeah. And I’ve even got my yardage book for these uh for these ones around the green. So, I’m definitely taking it seriously. It’s a US Open yardage book. It is. Yeah. Yeah. There’s a lot of notes in there. A lot of numbers. How long have you had these yardages for? Too long. Have you been like that consistent with yardages for this long? Probably probably a couple of years, I would say. Like a piece of parchment. That’s like something you find in the British Museum. It’s definitely seen a lot of weather conditions for sure. I mean, we can drop it if you want. Yeah, let’s drop it. Let’s keep it random. Can we go sandwich? Yeah, I think firstly these kind of shots are always lie dependent based on see how it’s sitting, what choice of shot you’re going to play and whether choose lob wedge or sandwich. So feels like sandwich might work a little bit better. Again, I feel like the greens are soft enough where you can still control the landing where you don’t need a huge amount of height with lob wedge. Okay, fed away. So wow, that’s it. Big slope. I’m going to go one more. Just going to go the way that Aaron’s kind of broke away. I’m going to go a little bit further up to the left hand side. Yeah, lovely shot there. It’s not a white wash. I’m delighted. There’s a lot of pressure. I mean, look, look, your dad’s watching on as well. Do you mind being on camera, Aaron’s dad? Look at this guy. It’s like a secret agent just got off the plane. He’s like watching over me. I’m terrified. Quite a steep lip kind of coming onto that down side slope again. So as we work around the green and as we get to that back side it’s really tight. That’s coming straight down the slope. Good. Keep coming. Go. Go on. Release. Release. Oh, I thought I’d played that so well. That was nicely played there, Pete. Oh, mate, you’ve just been absolutely done there. Did that just check up a lot? I basically stopped there. Really? Oh, damn. Oh. Oh, it’s so so frustrating. Yeah, that’s a real shame. Okay, well done, Pete. Thanks. Right, so we’re like hitting straight onto the down slope, so it’s got to release out. Open up the blade a touch. We’re on a little ups slope. So, look at that. That came out like an absolute dog. Oh, hello. Balls back here. Just chis. No, no, you didn’t just No. No. What? What? So, what what what were you what were you possibly looking at? to the way that I chip. I have um different swing lengths which go a certain yardage in the air. So regardless of what shot that I have within probably 50 yards, I’ll always consult this with how far certain shots carry. So it’s more routine whether I’m practicing, whether I’m in tournaments, I’ll uh I’ll get my book out just to know how far I’m going to swing it. Man, that’s crazy. So you got a 60° here. Yeah. So we what we going on? So this is your Pitch it around 12. 12. So I know that’s 9 to 9. So like just like 9 to 9. Exactly. Yeah. It gives an element of structure and rigidity which kind of helps the feel to kind of work within. Whereas if I just leave it all to feel, I feel like there’s just too many things that can happen. Um but then if there’s no feel built into it, you don’t you don’t have the versatility that you need around the greens. Yeah. Yeah, nice shot. Very good. Easy. Just realized I almost styied you there as well. Yeah, nice shot. Very good. Good job. I’m not feeling nervous on these next few. So, we’re hitting straight onto the down slope here. So, I guess it’s a choice of either kind of pitching before running it up and letting it release or trying to get it onto the down slope. [Music] Right. So, similar shot here, but again, like we now got the bump to go over, so there’s no no option but to fly it. Similar kind of shot. Similar shot. Yeah. Maybe just a touch higher and softer. Just feel like standing on the touch more of a dance slope. [Music] I think that Yeah, I think that’s you Pete. You got a better leave as well. You’re putting back up the hill. So yeah. Yeah. I wish I wish that’s what it was about. So this one is literally just touch personify. We are hitting straight onto the downside. We got about a twoft area to land it on and then release out. Wow. Speeding up. Starting to feel the pressure now. Pete. [Music] Wow, [Music] we’re going to the L. I can’t believe it. Well, don’t you want to hear about it? Never before in golf history. Has this happened? I mean, literally, this has never happened. Like, I don’t think this video has ever been filmed here before. So, this is new. Can we have it? And this is just like a standard straight up chip. I’m thinking a 48, mate. Just a like a chip and run up the slope. It’s a nice option. It’s not that much right to left. Oh, yeah. That is that has just left quite a massive opening. I love it. I absolutely I’ve not been this precise about anything in my life. That’s why I got kicked out of medical school. [Music] You got it, Pete. This is We’re going to have to measure it. Does pin high beat online? Pin high beats online every time. Thanks, Pete. Good stuff. Very good stuff. Thank you. Hey, listen. It was It was a tough four battle. Uh it’s a good way to kick off skills challenges, mate. Thank you very much. Very well deserved. Like, where does this like rank as far as like tests go and obviously played major championships all around the world. Does this going to break that list? Maybe top 10, top 15. It’s close. Yeah, it’s close. I’d put it right up there. Yeah, I’d probably put like Oakmont here. Carnoui maybe Peter Finch. [Music] [Music] Lovely to see you, mate. You too. Thank you for taking part in this challenge. Yeah. And I’ve fallen right into your wheelhouse here. Okay. Do I need to maybe check these yardages or not? Uh, no. Okay, good. Good enough. I mean, it is going to be I’ve just literally just had a lesson on my wedges as well. So, this could be the best thing ever or or the worst. Potentially. Potentially the worst. Yeah. You might have to close your eyes. It could be horrific. Um, I’ll let you lead away, mate. All right. You carry on. How’s the firmness of these greens? Any idea? Uh, yeah. Little kind of bit little soft I think going into the ups slope as well. Oh, little bounce. See that? See, automatically that was like a bit of pressure cuz like to me coming from Manchester, these are incredibly firm. But to you, I don’t know. Like you just literally come from the US Open. These could be the softest greens you’ve ever seen in your life. Uh they were pretty soft last week. They were got a lot of rain. I didn’t see them on the weekend, but they were pretty soft. They weren’t soft enough. I I I underestimated them. I also think I hit the wrong golf ball. So, that’s a bad start cuz I think you have regular proies. I noticed it made a little different noise than normal. So, we’re thriving to start. I took so much time setting these up as well. This is literally the most organized I’ve ever been. 50 chance and I still got it wrong. This is uh I got it door wide open for you. Do it. Sit. All right. What you mean? What do you mean unfortunately? One down. You’re leading this time. Use the Use the right uh ball. Using the bounce. It’s a little drop kicky. Sit. That’s it. Good speed. Stop moving. Okay. It’s It’s pin eye. We’ll be polite. That’s I like that. Hey, listen. So, you just got to use the bounce, aren’t you? It’s what it’s there for. Yeah. I’m glad it was. on net. All right, back to square. Was that just Wait, what? You got that one? Just want to walk it walk it off. Can I not beat that one? Okay. No, that was nice. Okay, so if it’s thin and a fat versus a wrong ball and a good shot so far, I’m getting the full variety and that’s the main thing. Yeah. Yeah. There. That’s all goes well. You or all goes how I would like, you’re not going to hopefully get another point. That’s how I’m hoping. No, not my best. Yeah, it’s a bit of karma though. That was karma. Bit of karma. We don’t go for that. We don’t smack talk on this channel. [ __ ] trash. It’s all It’s all about support on this channel, aren’t we? Oh, I think I’m on the wrong channel. 54 still. Yeah, I think so. You think? Okay. Uh oh, it’s getting left. Spin. Spin. It’s a little sneaky pin here, isn’t it? Yeah, it’s on a little shot. Thank you. That’s very nice. Thank you. Thank you very much. So, I remember you saying not too long ago that I wasn’t going to get another point. So, well, I mean, it’s depends on how this video is edited. If Oh, I mean, the video will be able if I get if I get friendly enough with these guys, they’ll they’ll never know I said that. That’s true. I’ve got him on like Victorian era contracts, though. So, yeah. Well, I’m screwed then. Yeah. If I actually give him money, that’s the most he would have earned this year. I was I pay him in potatoes usually. Do not have enough club for that 120. I need to go snap. You really didn’t think we were going to get that far, did you? I didn’t know what the Oh, is it It’s first to six. That is That is quite literally the worst shot I’ve ever hit in my life. Wow. Little bit of room there. Wow. That is a That is quite a disgusting divot as well. I don’t think I quite straightened my uh lead side enough, though. You kind of got me rattled right now. Yeah. I shot. So it was sick. You know that like Kapalooa playing those fairways that are like too big sometimes. It’s just trying to guide it over here from 60 yards. Well, I was going forward with my shot just like the the mind games. Yeah. So it work, man. Let’s try it. That’s nice. Very good. Sneaky little slope there contact. Yeah, I love the left side of this green. Yeah, we kind of got it. You got the left, I got the right covered. Yeah, I mean it would be fine, but it’s not like I don’t know. There’s the bigger slope at this golf course. Is that JT again? Thanks, A. All right, time to get on a little roll here. 32. What are we at? Uh, it probably won’t change until the 100. That’s It’s kind of like right at a full lob wedge, but I I hate hitting wedges full, so weird. Right. Again, that was pretty good. Nice thin kick back there. Oh, I think you got me on the pin high situation. Oh, maybe not. Sorry. You sure? All right. 14. It’s been a bit of a pillow fight, I will say. Yeah. We’re not really uh really threatened the hole just yet, have we? No. You like literally pitching the same spot every single time. I I keep hitting it right. I like that one. Yeah, that’s pretty regardless. That was very positive, wasn’t it? I think Sal’s getting into this a little bit more now. That was a nice shot. Thank you. Appreciate that. 54 again. Yeah. I don’t even know why we brought other clubs at the moment. You’re right. I might as well just use it all the way now. Let’s go a little side quest. Hey, well, you’re hitting my ball. Yeah. All right. All right. Yeah, fair enough. I am a bit cooler blind so stick right sit Benny. Oh man, he had some grip on it, didn’t it? Yeah, that was an unexpected good strike. My dad says that whenever he hits one over the green, he’s like, “Wow, a dang solid shot. Got me.” Oh, nice fly. Same spot. This is a pillow fight. I mean, at the moment, come on. We could have just like put almost all my balls in the same spot. Almost all of JT’s in the same spot as well. All right, let’s let’s let’s get one left to the hole, Justin. 110. Fly it. 110 down wind. 104. Straight down it. Spin. Go in. Do it. No. Sit. Finally got my aimer pointed farther left. Looks like there’s a tiny bit of room. Sab’s already walking onto the grain. He always thinks he thinks this is like a done deal right now. Oh. Oh, he’s done it. Oh, what a shot. Yes. Nicely done. Thank you very much. Oh, right. Nice surprise. Is that like a little high knuckle ball in there? Yeah, it was. It’s just how I drew it up in my mind. Yeah. You know, like you see a certain window. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that wasn’t it, but that wasn’t it. Yeah. All right. Comes down to this five uh 54. Yeah. Golly, come on. I mean, I’m I’m okay with it. I mean, I I I really got nothing to lose. So, yeah, just me. I have I literally have zero reputation. So, everything’s a plus really. Just having you on the channel is pretty big club here. Another 54. It’s another 54. I’ll literally have to get a new Vokei by the end of it. Go spin left. Okay. Hard part is telling the depth from here, isn’t it? Yeah, I think pin highest. I want to say that’s probably just about pin higher. Hit it solid, didn’t you? Go, go. [Music] I heard him the whole time. I’m just kidding. Yeah, we just trying to build the drama a little bit to match. Well play, man. Thank you. Very, very happy for you. Thank you. I can feel it. Patrick, welcome down to channel, mate. Yeah. Thanks very much. On our first challenge of day two. All right. What we got? 100 yards first of all. Okay. And you’ve been hitting this shot all day or what? Hey, listen. I might have been here at six. I might not. You want to go first? You want to go second? Uh, no. Please. as as a as a as a guest to the channel, as a distinguished tour pro. Okay. What we going in with? Uh 100 yards. Uh 52. Okay. Nice. Little soft strike. Yeah. Shot. When we doing this yesterday, this was a don’t miss left pin, wasn’t it? Is it? Yeah. It just like spins away. All right. I think I will follow your lead. Spin left. Good shot. Pretty good. Oh, might need to go get me towel in a minute. You can use mine. Are you sure you don’t know where this wedge has been? Like a sailor at every port in town. Thank you. I appreciate that. Yeah, of course. All right. Nice. Then too bad. Good. It’s a hell of a rat I just took there. My apologies to the green keepers at Wampy. Yeah, it’s a little wet. Same glove. Yeah. 52°. Oh, flight, flight, flight. That might spun back a bit. Mhm. Little soft. Wow. See, you’re too up, Patrick. I’m getting quite excited. I’ve never been in this position before. Don’t know. It just doesn’t seem to be flying quite as far today. Yeah. A little wet, a little soft. Very good. Touch. I think that was good. Nice swing. Spinning loads as well. Some of these divots I’m taking. Wow. Nice try, mate. That was good. Just a bit bit short again. See you’re three up. Yeah, I’m thinking pin high is beating online every single time here. Just getting it a little bit more beyond. Wow. Three up down. Okay, guys. If you’re enjoying this video, by the way, make sure you give it a like. Pitching wedge. Just a bit beyond again. Ah. Oh, no. Soft bounce. Stay there. Oh, that’s going to be H maybe pin eye. It’s hard to really tell how far it’s Yeah, the further we go back, the more you kind of like start to look down on the P. It’s hard to see where that flag stick is. Nice fly again, mate. Uhoh. Wow. I got lucky. Now the Yeah. No, I have been getting lucky. Oh, I guess it’s my shot. 140. 140. Yep. Strike. Yeah, mate. Oh, that’s nice. That’s real nice. Flight on that was really nice. You still rocking AP2s? Yes, sir. Yeah, since high school. Good swing. Thank you. Very nice. See, I don’t know where that flag stick is cuz I would have I would have thought that was yours. Unless I mean I think mine was pretty Hang on. He’s pacing out now. No, I think we’re just both pretty close though. Scores on doors. 3-2. Kind of jealous of your bag, mate. The AP2s. Oh, no. Like the whole DeWalt thing. Oh, yeah. How did How did that come about, by the way? Like DeWalt just trying to get in. What’s the Yeah, so they’ve got uh Jason Day and myself and um the golf bag’s been a big hit. Yeah, I I get all sorts of uh people asking if they can get a DeWalt golf bag. Yeah, it’s pretty cool. Yeah, nice shot. Thank you. The flight on all the flight on literally every single one of these has been almost like the same height. Do you tend to do like with your irons, do you tend to set up a little bit differently? I just to my eye kind of looks like a little bit open and just kind of easing across it. Yeah, definitely when it’s when it’s uh soft like this and you know the green’s pretty back to front. Trying to take spin off. Yeah. Yeah. Trying to drive it in a little extra club and little soft swing. Very nice line. Sit. Sit. Sit. Oh man. Let’s just hit that slope. Should have given him a tape measure, really, shouldn’t we? Oh, damn. All right, it’s all tied up. Tied up at three. Say, which one’s your favorite major? Is that the kind of one you’re really after or Yeah, I like the US Open. I like the Masters. Mhm. Hard not to like those two. Yeah, Masters would be good. One, 60. Uh, yeah, 160. Okay. These ball flies are so impressive. You got you got shot tracer out here. Oh yeah. Well, we draw we draw them on afterwards. Okay. But like normally they’re drawing on my shot tracer. So it’s a bit of a firework display. Like I’m kind of thinking with yours is going to be a little bit easier. How do they draw them on after? They follow the ball. Yeah. It’s like you kind of get impact. They just do it frame by frame and just awesome. I’m saying this like I do it. Big shout out to Big shout out to the guys. Oh, I’ve killed it. Four. A really? Yeah. He didn’t need to say that, did he? Um, how’d you get in How did you get into this? Um, yeah, it was it was basically a choice really. It was this or down the mine. So, but but really how how did you how did you decide you wanted to do this? Uh, it was just doing coaching videos. Okay. So, I was doing coaching videos and then started doing some plane videos. One thing led to another now 10 years later. Oh, really? 10 years. Here I am in Connecticut. That’s awesome. What’s that 12? It’s almost 13 years now. Really? 13 13 years and I’m still getting away with it. It’s probably taking you some cool places. You are really starting to frozen rope these now. Going. It’d be funny if he early called me right now. He could call out Patrick right now. Oh man, that was a that was a nice visual to have. Honestly, the flight in these it’s kind of hard to explain, but it’s kind of one of those things you hear all the time like windows and actually hitting it through the same one. Like every single one of your flights has just been the same height. It’s been Yeah. impressive. Very nice. Might get this one. Yeah. Beauty. That’s a winner. Nice work. See, you started knocking down that flight. Yeah. Yeah. So, what I did there is I strategically used the uh bottom groove. Some Some people would call it a thing. That’ll work sometimes. Yeah. It was in the air. Yeah. It was in the pro golf circles. That was a beauty. Yeah. Control flight. Here, let me get your club for you. They work better cleaned off. Oh, do you not take the spin off it with dirty gross on how it works? Go a little further. I don’t know. Is it like a knockdown six from here now? Or what do we got from here? 180. 180. Can’t think of the way that went. A little knockdown. I should do a bit more with the seven cuz they are stopping quick. So Mhm. Oh no, I’ve sliced it again. Pour. All right, so what’s the rules? I got to hit the green to count or what? Uh, yes. All you have to do is hit the green here. Okay. That was so bad I missed Sab and he’s standing 20 yards off the green. No, you’ve not. You’ve not. No, you’re not. You’re all right. Thought you throw me a lifeline there. Wow. Okay. One up. So, Patrick going on to the last shot. Well, you tied Aaron earlier, right? Patrick’s play in some big events, but this is maybe the most meaningful shot of your career to this day. Definitely the most meaningful today. Hold on. That’s straightened out. Oh, there’s a bit of room. You can do that. I mean, I can I can do it. I believe in you. That was easy to say. saves me a dinner. Right. 190. That’s just a nice normal set. [Music] Yeah. Very nice. Right. Perfect. Great shot. Wow. That was actually a genuinely good shot. Nice work. Literally tied it up with the last shot, mate. Well done. Thank you. That was actually a high quality match. We’ve actually produced some good shots today. There you go. Tied it up, mate. Class. Yeah. Thanks very much for that, bro. Appreciate that. [Music] Great to see you again. Congratulations on last week. Thank you. If you’ve not watched the US Open, Bob should have won. JJ didn’t spawn it on that last screen. It was a lucky put, was it? Let’s face it. It’s a good part. Like I saw you clapping afterwards ironically, but Do you want me to go easy? That’ be great. That’d be great actually. Yeah. Right. I’ll let you go first one. I’ll let you go first. You sure? Yeah. Just have a relaxed little cup of weight. Well, you got an eight iron. Well, I’m going to go a wee eight iron. Yeah. It’s kind of in between a bit, isn’t it? Yeah. It’s right across the Looks good to me. As long as it spins left. Got the distance dialed in already. That’s a That’s worrying. Was that a little late? Yeah. Yeah. It’s coming back empty as well. Right. I’m going to go the same. Well, I think I might have hit the green to begin with, which is nice. Spin hard. You’ve got more speed than me. Just a big boy now. It’s a good effort. It’s nice again. Very good. I think we’re going to have a great 20 minutes. Thanks. Thanks for tuning in. [Music] Oh, mate. It’s too far right again. Um, I just need to stop it. It’s 6 in behind the ball. I used to charge for that, you know. No refunds now. What do you see? Put the ball back. Uh, well, I teed it up for him, so that’s beautiful. Oh, please be good. That’s beautiful. Oh, man. I think you’ve actually got three balls inside me. It’s not like me to brag, so [Music] the one [Music] Wow. I’m not liking this. I’m up for a challenge, but I don’t like ones that I can’t win. That’s it. [Music] I don’t like this. You know, I’m changing club here. I’m going to try one ball with a nine iron to see if I’ve if I can keep the line better. You’re not questioning yourself, are you? Yeah. Just get left. Just turn a touch. I mean, I think that is that is the club, isn’t it? Yeah. The only problem is I’m running out of golf balls. Just hold your line, please. Oh, that looks good. Spin. Oh. Oh, too much spin. Is it? I think so. Yeah. I think that was banged on though. Like that over the pennies in. Remember doing the chase ace on the European tour. Is it like like literally a full day? Uh I was so glad I got it done in about 104 shots, I think it was, cuz it would drive me insane if I had had to get to like 500 balls. I mean, they’re perfect golf shots here. Just go, will you? Spin now. That was good. That’s got to be close, that one. That looks good. Oh, wow. That’s literally put a divot in my face. Well, that was a four. Right. This one, please. [Music] Love shot. Please. [Music] No, that’s the one. Oh, that is literally the one. Spin. Spin. Go. I think it’s too far in now. Oh, we got one more. Yeah. Last one for me. Yeah. No way. No. Might be my vessel to finish. just moving and please no. Too much spin. I think that caught the hole. Well, even even Sav had a bit of a spasm there as that went past. I thought I had it. Right. Let’s have a wonder up, shall we? Let’s actually see cuz this might be one of those where you’ve actually hit one. I don’t think I have. Like pin high. Oh, he’s measuring it out. He is measuring it. He’s You tell me there’s a chance. Like coming second is not a bad thing. No, you can do all right. Yeah, but that’s not what you come for, is it? I mean, I’d love to have finished second in the US Open to be fair. Second was all right. Yeah, we kind of cancelled the go for me, so I won’t go hungry. I mean, I’ I’d kind of be happy for Are you going We’ll go back to the hole. Back of the cup. Back of the cup. Okay, there we go. To the back of the ball. Have I done you or have you done me? You’ve done me by half an inch there, mate. Scotsman beat an Englishman. [Music] [Laughter] Congratulations. Well done. I’m um delighted for you. At least I won something this week. Next challenge. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Lovely to see you. Lovely to just be here with you on this glorious day in Connecticut. All right. And it’s also quite simple cuz we’re just like whacking the big stick. Perfect. And seeing who can be longest. Easy. All carry or and roll. Uh what do we go now? We’ll go roll. Okay. Right m I’ll let you go first. Okay. Okay, I’ll let you go first. See if we can get some movement happening here. Oh, was slightly healed. Straight up to 181 ball speed. First swing. Not bad, is it? 81 321 toe. Is that like first swing out the back? Oh yeah, it’s a little bit towy. Towy. Like if it goes on another fairway, that’s fine. The launch is up. The launch is Oh, hang on. Hang on. Oh my goodness. So, I don’t nothing to feel bad about. I might be able to whistle a little bit. Optimized. You’re optimized. Yeah. But you’ve got one more green jacket than me. I don’t think you should feel too bad about whatever happened. Okay. So, don’t poke the bear. Was a bit better. Maybe 331 total. All right, step it up. That was better conditions for me. Bit more centered. Centered in like a zen way. Yeah, to complete zen. Yeah, I’ve never had that. Swing speed felt up. Didn’t feel too hot, though. Club speed was up, but the strike was uh maybe not. I mean, the strike was up the shaft. Um, solid out of the middle of the shaft. Well, thanks. Thanks, Strike Man. Oh, 267 total. Oh, that wasn’t good. I mean, with your with your drive, what are you looking for? Launch conditions, mate. Uh, well, I I wouldn’t say it’s like optimized for long hitting, but it like a bit of a balance of straight and long. So, I launch at like 9 to 10 with 2500, 2600 ideally. I think it’s a good efficient place to drive it for me. at 185 ball speed. Almost 189. Ball speed sneaking up there. Oh, he turned it. Keep that spin down a bit. Nice. See 332. It’s that draw. That little draw. Yeah. So, if you want to uh if you want to find a way, just get a bit more distance. It’s called a snap hook. goes a long way into the trouble. Unfortunately, that was [Music] maybe better, mate. Speed is up. Still a bit spinny. God, if I can if I can get a bit of a tow hook going now. A just lashing. This is the best part of golf, isn’t it? Now cheating it a little bit here, but that could run on the track, man. 336. Yeah, I thought so. Right. Yeah. Are you Did you just game the system a little bit? Is that what we’re doing now? Got out of this like bombers game into the runners right on the ground. That’s what we got to do. Oh yeah, necky. That’s so nice. Quick. Got quick on it. Oh, maybe. Maybe. It felt kind of good. 186 ball speed. Oh, it is. There we go. 341. Uh, that was Did you catch it? Decent. It was decent. Oh no, the speed’s down though. It’s on the edge of the fairway. 319, I think. 319. Just eased it out there. I’ve only got two balls. It’s down the fairway. 319. I know, but like today, it’s just not good enough, is it? Adam freaking Scott smashing it almost 350 in the freezing cold and wet. Good. Oh, again. It just it spun too much. That one. I think this is it. This is where I keep Oh, we’re getting the speed’s up there. The spin. 188 ball speed. 188 ball speed. Yeah. Jeez. Just had a bit spin. Bit of a spin issue. Oh, it was well hit. Please tell me you got that. You catch it? Yeah. Yeah. So, this is looking good. Please tell me you got that. This is looking good. No. Oh, why? 330. Last one’s whole 11 yards off that. We’ll have a whip whip at this one. Oh, now you’ll have a Okay. As long as you’re going to hit this one hard. Oh, it was straight. I don’t know though. So good. Such a good swing. 187 ball speed. 187 333.3. There we go. All the threes. Uh, bit too spinny for length that one. Oh, was it right? 29. 29. So, it’s 3 4 1 is the mark. Come on. I want to see some like explosiveness here. Come on. It’s your game. You falling on me face. [Music] Speed went up. Speed went up. Paul went left. The spin was down, but not quite. I mean I mean the Yeah, the spin was down cuz I almost broke the toe of the club. Well, Adam, that was a that was an absolute tonking. Yeah, it’s been an absolute pleasure to get wet with you though. Yeah, it was good fun swinging out my shoes. It is smashing it in. [Music] Welcome to the channel, mate. Thanks for coming on. Uh don’t want to put any pressure on, but this match is worth three points. If I win, I have the series with the Torros. If you win, uh, you win for the Torros. So, effectively, you have the hopes of the entire CJ. I got everything on my shoulders. Perfect. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Listen, I know you won some big events and like the pressure’s been on, but this is different. I This is really going to be the test, I have to say. Perfect. Yeah. I’m going to play three holes. Got shortish par four, longish par four, and then a devilish par three. Sound about right. Go. Lead the way. Lead the way. Give us a bash. Do you have a tea I can use? You certainly can. You can use one of my TE’s if you want. Oh, is it? Do you know Do you know about Tory? No. I’m not sponsored. Actually, I should get sponsored. The amount of times I’m never mentioning. Uh, if you do want to feature on the channel, by the way, if you just send me something with my logo on, I am incredibly easy to bribe. It’s actually terrible how easy I am. I would presume it is just a driver straight down here. Yeah, I think so. Isn’t it? Sort of right at the flag. I think so. Straight down that center stripe. It’s a Donald Ross course here at one point. It looks pretty cool though, isn’t it? Yeah. No, it does look really cool. Yeah, nice shot. It’s cling on to the edge. It moved a little bit, didn’t it? Maybe just a little. Maybe just rough. I seem to die. You keep you keep holding. I like to give a gift to everyone who comes on the channel. Well, what I really want to see at River Highlands is you teeing up. A little plastic tea in there. Plastic tor on there. Yeah. sociable. It’s the same line, isn’t it? They’re basically bang on the same line, I think. Fairway. Yeah, I think so. I think so. Fairway just in the semi. Perfect. Okay, let’s go. Three holes. Love Vig is just He’s just done me. Just just just snuck past me. I actually think he might clip a sprinkler head back here. Right. 87 uphill pin. Couple up like at the back. Uh yeah, couple of 87 which have been hitting w shots for about 4 days. I should be able to get this distance by now. A little bit wet. Flight it in. That looked pretty good. That actually looked pretty decent. Yeah. Jacob’s a bit stingy with his prey, so if he gives us a thumbs up, that’s basically in the hole. Is he a tough crowd? Very tough. So, no. Wow. Wow. That was quite that was a fast thumbs up as well. That might be a Hall of Fame shot. So, Wow. You think it’s really close? I I think it might be in 72. 72. Oh, nice try, mate. Very good. Bit short. Maybe a little short. Yeah. Just seem to sit down pretty quick. Oh, wow. I think that, mate, that’s coming back. Is it? That’s lit. What the heck? Oh, wow. Um, come right off the front of the green. It’s still coming. All right, I’ll walk up and hit it. So, you thought Oakmon was the toughest test? It’s actually preparing you. This is like number two in Oakmont, isn’t it? Oh my gosh. Yours is good. Is it actually good? I mean, it’s close. Oh. Oh, hello. Yeah. Wow. Okay, so I need to make this now. Oh, well, we’re we’re stroking it, so Oh, is it stroke play for three? Oh, yeah. Oh, okay. Okay. So, don’t worry, you’ve got a chance. And believe me, that’s not guaranteed. Well, I saw that other putter you had in your bag. Oh, yeah. That’s my emergency go-to. Yeah. Yeah. I’ve got like a pre-bent one. If you ever want to like snap something over my leg, I just pull that one out. Wow. Grab. God, that checked up. It’s coming back again, isn’t it? Seriously, where are we playing here? Literally oak point 2. No, no. That’s a four. I think I think that was that was filthy. That’s what that was. I needed it. Wow. What a putt. What an unbelievable put that was. You want it out? Uh yeah, I got Thank you. Yeah, thank you. Although I might leave it in. So obviously the way forward. No pictures on the scorecard. Nice. Thank you. Although three beats four. See, that’s the thing. There is no picture on scorecard apart from this one. These are moving pictures on this scorecard right now. Hey, listen. I’ve I’m one under. I can probably quite happily retire now. Uh this is really the peak of my athletic. This is the peak. This This is it. It’s not getting It’s not going to get better for me. You just went fairway and stuffed to wedge. No, you don’t understand how good that is for me. Thank you. Thank you for being here for this. You I’m really sharing a moment with you. [Music] [Applause] I’ve not really played that many like of this style American courses. What’s your favorite course over here? Um, so many good ones. Um, I mean, my personal favorite is probably Augusta. just I mean I know it’s so it’s such an obvious answer but there are so many things about that place that’s really cool that’s sort of stood the test of time and you know little tweaks to the golf course that are just so smart you know and boring boring answer but it’s a good answer though I can’t really compete with that right uh okay it’s big stick hopefully straight down the middle towy. Hang on a little bit. Yep. Sure. Maybe just on the edge. Yep, it’s fairway. It’s kind of hard to tell, right? Yeah, it is, isn’t it? That That was definitely fairway though. I think it’s a good good angle in from there. Probably. Maybe. Maybe. I think so. Anywhere on the fairway is normally good, isn’t it? A struck. Great shot. Thanks. That is going to come down about now. I think you definitely got that one past me. Oh my. It is hard to see though, isn’t it? I couldn’t really see that when you hit it that far. Oh god, that was the most old man thing to say that, it Oh. Oh, I think I might have just thrown up in my mouth a little bit there. Oh, it’s hard to see when you tip that far. I don’t go that far on me holidays. Well, I’m one down. So, it’s all about short game, is it? It’s all about my electric touch around the green. We can clear. We don’t do bud balls on this channel. Perfect. You say no quail hauler60 yards left in. Just got a little bit of a towy one to the left side. Kind of looks like it’s a bit of a false front. So, Nice strike. Yeah. Go on. Good. Stiffing another one. Oh. Oh, stay there. Oh, stay. No. Don’t do a love big. No. No. No. Oh, you fell victim to it again. This is This is why I don’t understand why we play golf sometimes. How can it be almost in the hole? Yeah. To now off the green. Hey, it was a good strike. Thank you. Good swing. Yeah. Secretly, I’m like outwardly I’m being annoyed, but internally I’m actually jumping for joy right now. So, you’re saying I should take a little spin off of this? I would say so. I think a little bit beyond. Oh, stay there. Oh, cover. Yeah, nice shot, I think. Oh, yeah. It’s coming back. Nice. Stay there. Stay. I think it stayed, didn’t it? Wow. Yeah, nice shot. I think you might have found the one point of that green where it’s not going to come off. What was that then? Just like a little knockdown. That was a little eight. Yeah. Yeah. Normally it’s that was a nine iron number for me. Yeah. But I hit an eight instead just to chip it a little bit. Take the spin off. Should I should have hit a little nine. Full wedge is way way too spinny there. You hit wedge. Yeah. That’s a That’s a big wedge, isn’t it? I mean, hit it far. Best sum. Oh, look where that’s pit. Look where that landed. That’s It is pitched pretty severely. Seems brutal. Seems harsh. But hey, listen. That’s golf. Just got to roll the punches, right, love? Right. We’re heading into the UPS slope. Should spin. I did have a chipping lesson this morning. Oh, you did? Yeah. What do they teach you? Um, basically stand closer. Don’t use my hips like I’m using them. And something else I can’t quite remember. But if this works then Okay. Yeah. Let’s try it out. A nipped it a little low. Yeah. A little bit weak. It’s a nice leave though underneath the hole. Very professional. Yep. I’m very professional. You’d rather have 10 ft that way than 6 ft that way. Very true. Outer C. Yes, please. This could be a big putt this one. Go, go, go. That wasn’t very close, was it? All right, big putt, Peter. This is the one I’m going to tell my grandkids about. Well, as I don’t have kids, it’s just going to be about dogs. So, not again. Nice buckets. Wow. Right in the center, wasn’t it? Yeah, that was actually pretty Yeah, pretty good. You You brought something out in me. [ __ ] I mean, stiffing it, stuffing wedges, hitting pitching wedges till like if um if the tour doesn’t work out and you want to be a caddy, I’ll just follow along with you. I mean, I’ll give you 15%. Now, I do play on the PG North Region Tour. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Won the first event of the year and that was £300. There you go. So, so 15% of that. I’ll take it. We might not be able to live a a lavish lifestyle, but that will cover my train ride. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. There’s no trains. Okay. Bus. They’re always on strike. So, I took a horse and car. [Music] Everybody get up. Final hole. The biggest match happening today at this time on this hole. How far we got? Uh, sorry that was meters. Uh about 177 m. That’d be like what? 915 95. Yeah. Got a little bit uphill. A little bit into what do you got? Six. Little five, I think. Yeah. It’s a bit air is a bit heavy, isn’t it? So, I mean, judging by the green so far, I’m presuming that landing it short with spin is not a great idea. Hold on. Hang on. Soft bounce. Stay. All right. On the green. That was a bit of a That was a bit of a smelly swing, but the fact that Donald Ross designed greens like car parks. Going six. I actually got a little five, too. Five. I’m going to try to cut this one a little bit. Cut it. Hold on. Yeah. A trap. That’ll be bunker. Yeah. kind of held up as such as well these brutal conditions out here at Wampy. Yeah. Have you any idea how to pronounce the name of this course by the way? This place. Yeah. No clue. Yeah. Put it in my phone going here. No, I got nothing. We We’ve resorted to Wampy. Wampy. Wampy rather than Wow. or Alanog. That that seems like the easy way to say it. Well, we’ll get I mean get down into the comments below and let us know because Wa wa wa. There’s just so many letters there. There’s way too many A’s. I feel like I need to make this one. Um, yeah. I’m not so confident, but little heavy sand. Oh, whoa. Spin. Spin. That’s in the oak rough. Me still or do you want to come up? You go, mate. You crack on. What’s that? Yeah, you go. Okay. Release. Release. Middle of the summer. These greens must be terrifying. They must be so fast. Yeah, they’re all back to front. It’s all like a front to back big old slope. Be pleased to know that pace putting is really my forte. Oh my god, that is so bad. He’s uphill. Well, I got twoirds of the way there. Yep. A bit slow up the hill, aren’t they? Look at the break on these putts, by the way. That’s unreal, isn’t it? What a putt. Brutal, but that was Thought you had it. Nice putt. Thank you. Oh, nice problem, man. Very good for the four. Thanks. Thanks for the beating. Honestly, it’s um it’s absolutely fine. Anytime. Not a problem. Thank you. Thank you for Thank you for Thank you. Absolutely. Just thank you for being here and thank you everyone for watching.

So, appreciate that. Thank you. Okay, after two days of fierce competition against some of the very best players in the world, we have emerged with a half, a draw, a tie, and I must admit kind of pulled it out of the bag a little bit with that three-hole match.
