I think it’s totally fine to hate Riggs and agree he is a tool but these videos objectively need people to act like that. Their match is mostly a dud without them acting crazy to each other

I think a lot of what you mentioned are things that are really not a cheating or trying to gain an advantage thing but more of a “being ignorant of golf” or “just an idiot” thing.


Agreed. I don't think he was trying to cheat.

And I also agree that Riggs looked bad for his reaction most of the time (although I agree with him wanting a penalty on the 18th hole).

But it’s more aggravating, to me, because he’s Riggs, that he didn’t say “hey man you really should put the flag back when your opponent finishes in case you didn’t know”… he had say it condescendingly to the camera like someone had the audacity to do such a thing. All while lying about his handicap.

He just bothers me.

yep, bingo

Looked to me like Riggs was just playing a character trying to get cheddy riled up..like rh short putts, putting the pin back in, the potential penalty for improper marking, etc. I think he did it knowing it would drive views and provide a story. Cheddy seemed to get genuinely irked at him…kinda validating what Riggs was doing.


Also, cheddy moved his ball before placing a mark. I always thought you had to place a mark down before you touched your ball, and vice versa when you replace it. Ofherwise how would you know where to place it exactly?

Everyone getting all drunk at the end of their matches and Dave brings out the "and wait there is more!" Everyone immediately hits sober town

Classic move

That’s kind of Riggs thing though isn’t it? He’s a Golf “Hardo” but he sucks at the game.

Also, the penalty controversy on 18 was irrelevant. Even if that was Cheddys ball he would have had to hack it out or take an unplayable anyway. So the result would’ve been the same. Honestly, I think Riggs was just trying to get into his head and giving out the same energy he had been getting the whole match.

Damn now I sound like a Riggs apologist

At least it provided some entertainment for that video. That was like the second movie in a trilogy that just set up the final finale.

next year i hope they get rid of golfers as bad as the duke. His one hole on day 1 where he battled for quad or whatever isn't worth this joke of a final where he hacks the ball everywhere. whoever got him was effectively eliminated from a 1.3 million prize

Duke put them in a 3 shot hole on #2 blading one over the green and then missing a short putt to save double. It also doesn't help with confidence knowing you have to play your A game because your third player's A game is still god awful

Also, on a side note, Salim is so damn obnoxious.

Should be a good finale. The teams are evenly matched imo. It'll be interesting to see how they use Salim. He can't be hammered a whole 18 holes right???

Also for the love of god, no more Duke Dave.

he's been hammered the entire tournament so signs point to him being hammered again at pretty likely odds. However, if I'm on his team and playing for that much money I do everything I can to have him chill out on the booze. He could barely stand up the last two matches he's played.

The 18 hole match is that same day. And he’s already gone. He can’t stop from talking. Bet it becomes a problem for Riggs later.

This has to be Duke’s last one. The schtick is old. He can’t apparently swing normal and hit it well.

SPOILERS (But I would think anyone reading this would know there are spoilers by now)




On the 2nd hole Rufflels should have broken the Duke's chipper over his knee like Romeo did to Tin Cup with his driver. No way Duke should have been chipping that ball from the short grass. That one bladed chip cost them any chance they had. At worst they make bogey if he putts it but instead they made triple pretty much right out of the chute.

True, if Marissa would have hit a couple of greens in the same zip code of the flag stick they could have covered for Duke a little. She couldn't even lag putt close enough to give Duke tap ins.

Micah blows a chip on the last hole 15 feet past the hole and his team makes bogey and goes home. Meanwhile, his team mate from earlier matches that he was so certain sucked donkey balls, Bobby Ray, is dancing in the Finals.



Red team caught huge breaks that episode. First Whitney's bad tee shot in the playoff bounces down the hill and into a playable spot. Then in the alt shot format, I believe it was another Whitney shot that bounced out of a fairway bunker. Another Fat Perez drive was heading for a fairway bunker and it rolled off the edge and right back into the fairway. They were very fortunate.
