Yeah - he's a touch excitable to say the least. I'm not sure who's hosting the next Duels - pretty sure Bryson is in it. Because this one was on the Bryan Bros channel we got to see a lot of Wesley and George - possibly too much...

I have only seen one Bryan Bros. video, the Oakmont one, prior to the (half that I’ve seen so far of the) Virginia Duels….I don’t know what Wesley says or does coming up that’s annoying, but I find him quite agreeable and likeable..same for George
I think it could be better done with only 4 pairs, I don’t know who or what Fat Perez is, or what market he represents, but we can surely do without him. I don’t think Shiels is good enough either and would rather he wasn’t in it.
Bryan Bros, Kwon, Horvat are all pretty accomplished golfers of a similar-ish standard

You might change your mind on the inclusion of FP when you get to the 2nd part of the video

Would it? He had a couple of good shots and one good putt, the rest was Stenson playing very much by himself.You might change your mind on the inclusion of FP when you get to the 2nd part of the video

Anyone else watch the ‘Haters’ series on Foreplay’s channel It’s 100% not my cup of tea but I’ve somehow become hooked!
For those who don’t watch, one of the chaps is called Riggs, awful swing, duck hook, weird putting stroke, thinks he’s great, bit of loud mouth, supposedly plays off 4. He gets a lot of abusive comments on their videos and social media, and so they’ve started this series where he plays against one of these ‘haters’.
The latest one is supposedly off 3 hcp. Do they have a different way of calculating handicap over there? Because every 3,4,5 even 8/9 handicap I’ve played with has a nice swing, hits the ball consistently and are generally very good players. I’m off 13 and can usually see the big difference in ability. These 2 though, jeez.
Anyway, if you’re stuck for something to watch, give it a go, you might get drawn in as well!

There's no way Riggs is a 4 handicap - can't say I'm much of a fan of the Foreplay guys anyway so I've no inclination to watch a full length video of any of them - but I've seen snippets of his swing on social media and as you say, it's not that of a guy that plays off 4.

The thing is, he keeps beating these other players who are supposedly off similar handicaps, which makes me think they must not be subject to the same checks/rules as we are. As I say, a 4 handicapper to me is an excellent player.

Already watched it, at the end he says he is drawn with 2 tour players. The draw should say that, as a casual fan I don’t recognise the names. I just about manage the LIV guys.
But all 4 tournaments seem loaded. He needs a miracle, but they do happen.
Just checked, top 4 to qualify.

Didn't he do social media during lockdown? I seem to remember him going viral for chipping through the open windows of his Ferrari?

I've got a cameo in this, nursing a pint of Guinness as he finishes on the 18th.
