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.
Yeah the Duke is awful but imo they did not do a good enough job coaching him. The only goal they should have had was not letting something like that happen. Accept bogies do not let him blade it over the green make sure he keeps the ball in play on tee shots. Marissa didn’t have her best either but I do believe she is the best #2 player out there.
ETA I do think 18hcp should be the max they allow out there. We don’t need 64 scratch golfers but we do need some general ability to avoid being totally screwed like they were. It would have taken an all time performance from ruffles and Marissa
ETA Bobby Ray went from pretty awful in his very first match to extremely good. He took a lot of shite but his game has been really good. Riggs also had a really good round

Yeah I think what would bothers me most about him if I were playing with him is he doesn’t even take this seriously. He’s just there to smoke darts and act/look like an idiot. That had to be the peak of annoying for the real golfers in the tournament. I NEVER see Ruffles annoyed with anyone but you could see it all over his face the entire match, “I’m playing for over a million dollars and I got stuck with this fricking clown”

Ruffles didn’t coach duke enough. Duke shouldn’t be trying to carry a trap on a par 5. Duke should always putt near the green
The goal is limit damage not expect a golf shot
Without the triple bogey they are in it

I am not sure Bobby Ray has liked a single one of his shots the entire tournament. Every time he hits he makes some comment on what he did wrong.

I also think they should have gone with a different format than alt shot for the 3v3v3v3 considering the final is also alt shot. There was an opportunity to do something more unique with the format.
When it was 4v4v4v4, instead of teams, it could have been tiers. The 1s play each other 2s, 3s, 4s. Eliminate one from each group and then go to 3v3v3v3. That solves most of their issues with a really bad player and also makes everyone earn a spot.

Bobby Ray is definitely one of those guys who thinks too highly of himself. he was much more likable the last couple episodes. his game isn't that great for the way he behaves though.
the Duke needs to fricking go. Ruff got screwed on that exchange.

This is a great idea. Could've kept some really good folks around and the duke is out.
I still think ruff just misplayed that heavily. Marissa pressured herself because of it.
You can tell its probably been forever since Ruff played with 120 type player or he would've engaged differently.

Yeah Salim/Duke nearly ruined that episode and Salim clearly has a problem.
I still cannot believe the Dukes putting stroke. Purposefully pushes it 45 degrees towards like 2:00. He’s just not good enough to be on any of these teams in Alt Shot.
Ruffels has the patience of a blessed saint. Even Marissa sabotaged white team today.

Ruff got absolutely screwed, Marissa is good (didn't play well that episode) but she also is a short driver relative to the rest of the field. Ruff was absolutely in the right to ask for someone else to help off the tee. Duke couldn't even reach the fairway on his best drive on the last hole. Ruff handled the whole thing with class though.
To me, Riggs and Bobby the last few episodes have had a bit of a redemption arc. Both playing way better than the first episode or two.
Hope Fat Perez and co win but don't see a world the whole story hasn't been painting a Big John win this whole time.

This is stupid as frick, he’s 24 years and he’s essentially on vacation and getting drunk, doesn’t mean he has a problem. 24yr old gets drunk on the golf course with his friends!!!! The horror!!!! Yes they are playing for $1.3 million but he isn’t a good golfer and him being sober isn’t really going to impact his role on his team, plus shite he’s in the finals and has played great, so maybe you’re just a bitch and he’s the man. Also all those Nelk guys are rich, not sure how much money Salim has but Kyle Foregaurd is worth like $30million. I’m not saying $1.3 mill isn’t a lot of money but it’s not life changing money for him.

I actually felt bad for the Duke, he got put in an impossible situation there. He’s a terrible golfer and he’s supposed to try and play with two ex professionals on his team? Never stood a chance. Also he posted this apology on his instagram which surprised me. He doesn’t seem like a heartfelt type of guy

This definitely makes me feel bad for the guy, he is getting flamed across the internet. Dave probably didn't think he would make it that far lol

Acting like it’s normal for someone to take a shot on the course for every decent wedge shot or 2-foot putt made is a wild stance. He’s absolutely out of control.

Btw, apparently Salim is working on his substance abuse problems. So I guess he’s a bitch now too.

The Ruffles/Marissa/Duke team could have advanced if Marissa hit any decent shots. I guess she felt the pressure of having to put Duke in a safe spot but on the triple bogey she missed the green on a short par 3. Then she had a 25 foot putt and left the Duke a 5 footer. On short par 4 when her team still had a chance, she chunks a 65 yard pitch shot and the ball rolled back off the green. On paper she may have been the best #2 but she played poorly when with a good 9 holes by her they could have advanced. The other teams had plenty of bogeys as well.

He went 90 days sober just to see that he could do it, that’s not really working on substance abuse issues. It’s proving that you aren’t an alcoholic.
And sorry, I’m just not gonna act all shocked about a 24-year-old Internet millionaire getting drunk on a golf course. A ton of these dudes were drinking. Big John was drinking all day and smoking pot and everyone loves him. Salim just took it too far and didn’t understand where the line was, it doesn’t make him an alcoholic.

This was the difference, and it was 46yds. If she sticks that to a few feet and they make birdie they advance. That’s not on The Duke

You don’t find the timing just a bit odd? That he just so happened to “see if he can prove this to himself” after a stressful event was filmed of him acting embarrassing in relation to his alcohol consumption? But he does not have issues…
Meanwhile, you can tell he’s apologetic to his team in the video.

Salim definitely took it too far. i get being 24 years old, but this isn't a boys trip

The timing isn’t odd, he knew the video was coming out and he was a drunk slob in it so he got out in front of it and went sober for 90 days.
I’m not arguing that he wasn’t piss drunk the whole time. I’m saying that he’s 24 and one weekend of drinking too much and acting a fool doesn’t make him an alcoholic or mean he has a problem
