I gotta give it up to Kip. I didn't think he'd be much of a match for Don, let alone beat Don. He really played well! How will he stack up against the Nationwide players is a different story though... He comes off as a nice guy, I wish him the best. Bart is still the man.

Big Break III. Valeria, Felicia, and Sarah all look great. Hell Valeria seriously has the best compact swing I've ever seen. EVER! Male or female. Bad fake boobie blonde is the incarnation of Don. Don't let the boobs fool you. She looks like a serious pain in the ass.

Can anyone find a BBIV application on TGC's site?

My writeup on the blog is now available .

What impressed me most in the final was the polarity of the two players: Don, a selfish jackass, and Kip, a guy who gives someone a two-foot putt on the last hole to extend the match.

Kip wasn't playing particularly well - I think he has more game than he displayed today - and was unsure of his yardages all day. I think, as Kip said, at their bests each, Kip will win most of the time.

Erik, great write up as usual, you really recapped it well.

I really think Don's on course manners were pathetic. I don't see how he's able to compete with that kind of a temper. I'm glad he's not going to get a chance to pull a "Ricky Barnes" on the NW tour. I guess the most telling thing was that in their recap, all Don talked about was himself and how unlucky he was, while Kip even when so far as to praise Don and was very humble in victory.

Kip's sportsmanship was amazing. If I was in his shoes I'd definately not have conceeded the putt on the 18th to Don after all the whining Don pulled. Even though his driving and putting was suspect he was striking the ball well from all kinds of crazy lies. His initial swings looked really hesitant especially off the tee, I guess that's all nerves. I think he's capable of doing well on the NW tour, especially since he's had about a year to work on his game since BBII.

Did anyone else notice Don teared up a little when Bart got the chance to be on BBIV?

Naturally! What else could Don do? It'd be nice to see the full results. I bet Don was down near the bottom. My guess would be fourth from the bottom (seventh place).

Totally, Don is just hateable. I've never seen or known anyone more-so. And I'm an easy-going guy.

Watching it now.  Enjoying the show.  Refreshing, the whole cast is being good to each other and not dicks - Don too.  But still competitive and better golf than the recent shows I've watched.

Lame hosts - I hate the term "GOLF shot".  What other kinds of shots are they hitting......

Where did you find it?

The "golf shot" thing is weird.

OH - I just did a search on Big Break.  Found the descriptions for each season and decided to watch a few.  Watched Ka'anapoli and this one will probably slog through all of them for awhile.  Most of the episodes are all out there.

Google "Big Break Vegas Episode __"  1 thru 10.  This one ended well.  (I thought Bart and Don were the best players, but the guy that one seemed classy about it).

I'm gonna watch the early seasons and see if was just this one or if the earlier episodes were classier and the more recent ones people get more catty, yet less skilled

    • Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!
    • LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along. 
    • I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf. 
    • They've been chuckling since they hooked the shark. I think Greg doesn't realize the jokes on him.
    • to confirm, I'll need a hotel for Friday and Saturday, planning to share with you
