sixcat Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 No caddies. About a dozen neck/back/knee surgeries between Peyton and Tiger combined. That and one foursome on the course, having the carts took care of a lot of the downtime between shots. Also was helpful with the delayed start from the rain.

ZenGolfer Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 I'll admit that I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. It was kind of what I expected: Tiger and Peyton were entertaining, Phil and Brady were a bit full of themselves. Phil overanalyzed his wedge shots so much that I wasnt sure if it was Phil or Bryson. I also had to laugh at how Brady didnt say a word when he was sucking but after he holed out from the fairway all you heard from him was trash talk. Tom, just shut up. You suck at golf and no way are you an 8 handicap. I wish Brooks would have offered Brady $100K to quit after 9 holes and spare us all watching him hack it around the course. Chuck on color commentary was fun. I loved when he said after Tiger hit a shot, "that looks just like me" and when they told him he was dreaming, he was like, "I mean we're both black." Brilliant.

FrogginBullfish Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 Tom holed out as Barkley, and pretty much everyone watching, was roasting his game. Course he talked some trash back after that happened. I'm not sure why people are acting like one round on a tough golf course in the pouring rain while on TV playing with two of the best golfers in the world is enough to say Brady is exaggerating his handicap. He didn't play great, so what, that doesn't mean he's lying about his handicap. Dude's prepping for the upcoming NFL season. And anyway, the event was to raise money for charity, which they did a lot of. How good Tom Brady is at golf doesn't mean anything. It was a fun event that raised a lot of money for a good cause. I'll admit that I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. It was kind of what I expected: Tiger and Peyton were entertaining, Phil and Brady were a bit full of themselves.

Sent from my Pixel 2 using MyGolfSpy mobile app Call me one of those people who doesnt believe Tom is an 8 handicap. At this point in his life, being on TV shouldnt matter. Him chirping at Chuck after he hit his first good shot of the day is akin to him losing by 41 points in a game, finally scoring a toughdown and chirping at the other team. The problem isnt that he talked trash to Chuck, its that he proceeded to talk trash for the rest of the day after that. You finally hit a good shot, Tom, good job. What about all the other tee shots that you snap hooked OB and that fact that your game was so bad that you didnt even hit driver all day? Brady just proved why, other than people who live in Boston or who are Michigan football fans, no one can stand him. Its funny how Tiger and Peyton managed to make it a fun event and be entertaining without making an arse of themselves.

FrogginBullfish Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 Chuck isn't one who should ever be chirping anyone about their golf game by your standards. Sounds to me like you just don't like Tom. Move on.

I will say, as a Miami Dolphins fan, it was really nice to see Brady struggle. At least for a little bit. RADSPEED Driver 9* HZRD BLUE SMOKE 6.0 shaft G425 MAX 3 wood 5 wood H1 Hybrid

I’m looking at it as a live unscripted show, out of their comfort zone that was for Charity but still very competitive between themselves. Add in a monsoon and things can go sideways.

sixcat Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 I didn't watch but have read/heard several comments suggesting Manning should/could have been more entertaining on the mic. Just my opinion but I don't think he was ever going to say anything that may negatively affect his "brand." He has the potential to make significantly more money post NFL than he ever did in the NFL. The world is far too sensitive these days and the least little thing could jeopardize that. I suspected he would be a bit dry. In no way would Manning do the SNL skit where he is winging footballs at kids and cursing at them in 2020 like he did in 2007.
TR1PTIK Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 I got to watch a few holes as it was played live on Sunday, but didn't really get to watch the whole thing until yesterday. I really enjoyed it. Tiger had great form pretty much all day in really crappy conditions. Brady choked (not surprising for an amateur to crack under the pressure of being on TV and in those conditions). Also, it sounds like TB may have over-prepared for the event which hurt him even more. Peyton was great - his approach shots on several holes were absolutely brilliant (even if it was for double bogey or worse at times). Phil was obnoxious, but also entertaining and insightful at times - the explanation of his chip on whatever hole to JT was 100% Phil. Speaking of JT, I thought he was great - he could easily have a side gig during any event where he misses the cut lol. Barkley was typical Barkley in the best possible way. Giving them carts was an unexpected stroke of brilliance if you ask me. Between the additional cameras, pace of play, and opportunity to fill-in dead space, it worked out great. I'd definitely watch another event like this if executed in similar fashion, but you have to have the right personalities on the course as well as a touch of fireworks - the latter of which was lacking in the first The Match and even a bit during the TM Driving Relief event.
