Big Break Disney

[srjorion]

I thought it was funny how they made a big deal about Kevin saying "wow", and then just a few minutes later they focus in on Tony and he says "wow". Yeah, I know, Kevin says it so often and so loud that it's annoying, but I still found it ironic.

Did anyone notice that Andrew picked his ball up off the fringe before he hit his putt? This one on the 2nd hole I think. He hit the green but it rolled onto the fringe.
Maybe they were allowed to lift, clean and place?
Someone please confirm what he was doing. I watched it over and over and it appears clear that he picked his ball up off the fringe to line it up before his putt.

[Vance87]

It's possible they had lift, clean and place in effect. Past episodes it had been raining and I've noticed that there is almost no roll in any of their shots, even off the tee.

I find it amusing that Tony calls out andrew when gipp pulls out a 9i from 180 when andrew pulls out 6i from 188. Tony didnt account for andrew being on an uphill sidehill lie, that would count for 1 club stronger due to the added loft from the uphill nature of the lie, and not to mention you cant swing all out on a side hill lie either, to me thats another club. So lets just say I think Andrew has a 175ish yard 8i in him if he wants.... thats not a hole lot shorter than gipp.

[Vance87]

They should just start out each show with Kevin saying WOW. "I'm in the final five...WOWW...I'm in the final four...WOOWWW...I made it to the finale WOWWWWW"

Sorry to see Andrew go. The two brothers are the most annoying thing on the show now.

[SpringBokVol]

Couldn't agree more. The brother's are annoying. I thought I liked Tony, but his ugly side has shown up the last couple of episodes.

I really liked Vince and Andrew.

When Andrew hit his ball into the water, that is a stroke and then when he dropped it just outside the water, is that a 2 stroke penalty or a 1 stroke penalty?

[drewdown]

1 stroke penalty, so once he dropped his ball he was lying 4. 1 off the tee, 2 in the water, 1 stroke penalty, 4 chipping onto the green.

[Golf_Gal]

1 stroke penalty, so once he dropped his ball he was lying 4. 1 off the tee, 2 in the water, 1 stroke penalty, 4 chipping onto the green.

Ahhh...ok. So its a stroke landing the ball in the water, and then a penalty for getting it out and dropping it?

What "tour" is gipper finau on? Isnt he already on nationwide or something? If so, why is he on big break. Dont the top 25 money makers on the nationwide get pga tour status for the following year?

I noticed that but I wasn't sure if he was on the fringe or just on the green. Either way it didn't have an effect on the overall match. It did look like he did though.

if you go to the PGA site, it shows him as playing 2 rounds..nothing more. It doesn't appear like he did very well. Theres just not enough info to make an educated guess as to how well he might do on the tour.

[youngskip40]

you couldnt have possibly really thought he said "beast from the skies"... i refuse to believe it.

I believe he said "I'm a beast in disguise... I just hit a 9iron."

I WISH he said "I'm a beast from the skies." That was a really dumb unnecessary thing to say, sure... but I was cocky and invincible when I was 19 too, weren't you? Imagine being a pro athlete at age 19 on top of that.

[ThomasG]

I hope Kevin wins it. He doesn't have the talent the others do, but he wins challenges and avoids elimination. Plus the other three left are pretty classless. Mike needs to go. then Gipp. Then Tony.

[DaSportsGuy]

I'd like to see Kevin win it. He keeps his mouth shut and finds a way to move on. I think it'll come down to him and Tony.

[iPutt]

I have to say, I lost a lot of interest in the show now that every single player that I liked is off.

[wedge player]

I WISH he said "I'm a beast from the skies."

i like gipper i want him to win.
