I did not make the Top 16 :~(

However, I was selected as a runner up which apparently means I can come in as an extra for some episodes and I can be a leader of some 12 week program that may be featured on the show. No idea yet on any details. The tryouts were fun, I got to meet a lot of golfers...most were a lot better than I was. Oh well...they made a neat little magazine cover of me.

It was definitely a good time, they used my golf pong (beer pong with lob wedge and ball) idea in the tryouts.

They also had nights where everyone could meet up at a pub, discuss the show and mingle.

Also if they get enough likes/comments on this page...

..I believe Taylormade will throw in a ton of cash. Not really sure the details...but yeah it was a great experience.

Sorry you did not make it man! I  was in the mix for a minute but my life is just too dang busy to commit to something like this. It is a great concept and they are going to do some really cool stuff with it. I would hang around and make an effort to stay in touch with those guys, there will be more to come! Love the mag cover :-)

Yeah I hear ya! I have a couple vacations planned this summer and I wasn't sure how it was going to all play out. Now I can kind of relax and just play golf.

Still would have loved the coaching though!

I also live clear across town from where they were doing all the filing and events, makes it pretty tough.

Side note for us Minnesotans: I was at Mississippi Dunes last Friday and they hope to open in 2 weeks! Come on sunshine!!!

      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.

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By imsys0042 ·

      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.
