Lest Westwood on Close House Filly Course

I think that, like many professional sportsmen these days, LW knows that his reputation is a commodity that he wants to be able to sell to sponsors, and that tends to make him quite guarded. He doesn't want to engage too much with anyone for fear of damaging the "brand". He might be more easy-going when there are no cameras or microphones around.

Or he just thought Crossfield was a cock?
 
I saw this title and thought, Lee's a bit fat & heavy to ride a horse.....:smirk:


Taxi....:o
 
I enjoyed the vids. Lee seemed irritated with MC at first but was soon taking the micky out of him . I did wonder what their pp thought , although in fairness LW did spend time with them coaching.

Sounds an obvious thing to say, but when i met LW on the GM day, he came across really.....well......normal! Just a sound down to earth guy.
 
I watched the vids on the train on Friday. In one of vids the discussion come up and crossfield me exact words mentioned FOOTJOY when Lee said the squeak was doing his head in
 
Back to the OP Q?

I think a Pro would destroy my course (ex course).

Can't see them missing the green on any but two of the par 4s.
Chipping/putting for eagle on the par 5s.

The only issue could be the par 3s. One is easy, the others...hmm... I could see the odd bogey.
 
Locky is a lot less jarring than crossfield , but the putting "my" in every sentence is getting boring and almost giving Locky a mini-me appearance

Pimpmygrind, floopmyshot, lagmyput.... Bla bla bla

The "watch me walk my putt in" is getting a bit boring aswell.
 
Well here's my take on it having watched the first 4 parts so far.
I'm a fan of Westwood as I have always thought he's pretty down to earth and straight. I have never heard of Crossfield until this.

From what I can gauge, Crossfield and his equally as annoying cameraman/commentator have managed to get in with the unfortunate competition winners I'm guessing, and completely ruining it for them in the process.

I find Crossfield and pal super annoying and disrespectful to Westwood. They don't know him well enough for the type of rubbish they're coming out with and it's certainly not funny or impressive in my book.
Westwood does very well to take it in good spirit and as a previous poster says on here, he's probably got his responsibilities/sponsors in mind. Had there been no cameras involved I think Westwood would have told the pair of them to do one.

All in all, I'm flabbergasted by this Crossfield character and his sidekick. What a completely annoying fella he is. If I had a round with him I think I'd quit golf.

Well done Westwood for putting up with them and going along with it - in most parts.

.. I suppose I could have got Westwood wrong and he may be full of praise at the end of the round. We'll see.

Why do you say he ruined it for the competition winners? They didn't look or sound annoyed on the video, no comments were heard on tape?

The reason he was playing with him was because both are sponsored by your golf travel.

I though it was a good vlog - showed LW to be a decent guy who like to have a bit of fun, and yes MC can get annoying but you now that before you watch it yes?
 
I watched a couple of the vlogs when they were following the pros round when he was in Turkey recently. And I'm sure Shane Lowry gave them the skunk eye and kind of asked them what they were whispering about. But having said that also saw his interview with Gmac and that was very good. But that could be down to the fact Gmac is a great guy and is possibly more 'tolerant'.

I think Lee was gritting his teeth a bit as he is well aware of his sponsor responsibilities. But I can guess what he was saying in private to his fellow pros.

Agree with a lot on here, he can come across a bit 'hard work' at times on the vlogs and he seems to be trying too hard. And all that '.....my....' is getting repetitive and annoying. Said it before, I think he is the best coach on you tube and the first person I'd like a lesson with. Just not 100% sure I'd want to have a pint with him afterwards.
 
I got the impression that Lee couldn't really be arsed with Crossfield at times.

not just me then. Thought Westwood looked completely disinterested for the main part that I watched. I quite like Crossfield, met him and had a chat whilst he was doing his review of Belle Dune, but Westy just didn't seem to want to be there.
 
Couldn't bare to sit thought part 1, let alone the other parts! What a complete idiot MC is, in my opinion! Came across as really childish along with his camera wielding pal. Much prefer Finch & Shiels.

During my limited exposure to the vloggers Finch and Sheils both seem to be likeable than others - seen the odd vid with MC and just something about him that I think would put people off him
 
Saw Part 6 last night and thought it was excellent . Also saw the Westwood interview with MC at the Turkish Airlines (which he wouldn't have done if he didn't like them) which was also very good. and just to clarify I'm fully aware that he wears FJ shoes but they sounded so bad that they could have easily been made by his sponsor !!! I do agree with others that MC can come across as a bit of a "hampton" but i am a fan of Coach Lockey, i find him genuinely amusing and he doesn't have to try whereas MC , IMHO, just tries too hard at times.
