Actually I think he does, because he has all the time in the world.
Not comfortable with typing He, maybe they is better until we have clear guidelines on their prononouns.

So episode 5 with Fitzpatrick
Very good , always liked him and he came across very well even if he loves his states
Some of the stuff said to him by the crowd - it’s pretty disgraceful but you expect that from the us crowd
Episode 6
Finau - brilliant guy , always comes across as very likeable but he put himself right out there , very touching at times and you can see how much his family means to him.

7 episodes in one to go
Still enjoying it but I could easily do with less of the 'sad' backstories. Never liked that approach in any form, be it tv talent shows or in films/books etc

Episode 6 follows Finau and Morikawa. Finau is the golfing equivalent of The Waltons. Proper family man, hard not to like the guy.
Episode 7 follows rookies Theegala and Pereira. Enjoyed it, shows the passion of their families and friends as they go for their first win, and the brutality of it when they don't get it done.
Episode 8 follows McIlroy. He comes across really well, as much as certain people wish to say otherwise these days because of certain alliances. "..... U PHIL, hope that makes it in"

You hear about how the crowds treat foreigners over there but it was shocking to whiteness and really poor standard of banter too. I’d be quite frustrated hearing that rubbish around me if I was in the crowd.
I feel the American guys should maybe help protect others as they wouldn’t get the backlash but I also get that they’ll take anything that will nobble the opposition too.
I can’t understand why people would choose to come to a sport like this and want to see someone fail rather than want to just cheer on another player to see them succeed.

I did wonder whether he would’ve heard those particular shouts, or if it was just edited to look that way? A lot of pro sportsmen talk about not really hearing what’s going on, they’re too focused. Hope that’s the case, but regardless, he shoved it right down their necks! Think that’s partly why it was an emotional episode for me, him winning against all that.

So finished it all now
Episode 7 - it was ok , just didn’t really do much apart showing Perreria collapsing on the 18th in the PGA - that’s the worst swing I have seen from a pro
Episode 8
Was good , all about Rory and the Open and Fed Ex - thought the chat with others was good especially with Rahm , can see there is a lot mutual respect there

Working through it very slowly. Got the wife involved so she said just one a night
Ep 2 last night. Very insightful. Felt for brooks. Can understand why he felt fit to leave the pga. Clearly depressed.
Ep 3 interesting watch for sure .. don't get the hate for poulter. Didn't seem overly arrogant tbh, was nice to see a more balanced view on Liv rather than constant bashing from the haters.

By all accounts, there's some pretty creative sound editing throughout the series, so probably best not to rush to judgement

Finished it tonight, thought it was a bit of a weak ending in all honesty. Rory came across very well for the most but then like a silly big kid at the end with the cheap Mickelson digs.
Episode 6 was by far the one me and the missus enjoyed the most, great stuff.

Yep. I’m not one for slagging those players off either.

I get the impression that with his position of "chairman of PGA Tour's player advisory council" that his nose was a bit put out of joint when players left after telling him they weren't

I thought he was quite open about that?

Absolutely. But it's obvious that sob stories was a major angle for the producers and they really encouraged the players to talk about their dead mum / dad / pet, even if it was more than a decade ago.
I recognise that might sound like I'm lacking empathy, but I just don't think that golfers think about their mum on the back nine on Sunday afternoon. Obviously different if she's seriously ill or recently died.
Funniest moment of the series so far, Morikawa having a clothing meeting with Adidas. It was pure American Office

Yeah. He didn't like something, prompting about 10 disappointed business people furiously writing notesFunniest moment of the series so far, Morikawa having a clothing meeting with Adidas. It was pure American Office
Colin doesn't do edgy fashion. I could have told them he was never going to wear that outfit
