Only 9 holes playing right now at east lake. Saw interviews with multiple pros saying they would be surprised if anyone breaks 45. I think we are going to have multiple players be far lower than that

Tee times (all times ET)
4:12 p.m.: George Bryan IV, Wesley Bryan, Gabby GolfGirl, Tyler Toney
4:24 p.m.: Garrett Clark, Brad Dalke, Mason Nutt, Paige Spiranac
4:36 p.m.: Aimee Cho, Fat Perez, Roger Steele, Sean Walsh
4:48 p.m.: Mac Boucher, Peter Finch, Luke Kwon, Micah Morris

I agree. There are several players who have played pro events or former high level college players. The aren't weekend scratch golfers for the most part.

Grant is who I would like to see the most. For a guy that played low level college golf he’s legit

Im curious because I don't watch them, but do a lot of golfers put a lot of stock into these creators ?

I've seen some of Shiels tournament scores and they weren't impressive ?

I understand the the good looking girls content and that some of the creators make a good living off of their content.

I don't watch the instructors on the Golf Channel either. I have enough demons running through my head about the crazy game.

I don't think people "put stock" in them except for a select few but they make good entertaining videos that are enjoyable to watch unless your over the age of ~45 then probably wouldn't get much entertainment value out of it.

Sorta. The shirts I buy from the Good Guys have been the most comfortable ones I’ve ever worn.

The Good Good videos run the range from bleh to hilarious. Sharf’s hole in ones on par 4’s are just insane. Yes, he’s made 2 of those. If you ask me they’re the only ones really worth watching for pure entertainment.

The left handed challenge in particular is just turn off your cares about what you shoot and wonder how in the hell a guy can hit a ball backwards.

I’m 62 and I rarely miss one of the Good Good videos.

They are easily the most entertaining of the bunch if you ask me.

I don’t really watch the guys who are exclusively creators. But I do enjoy watching the Bryan brothers, Peter finch, etc who are still playing really competitive events. Guys like shiels and good good don’t do alot for me.

It all depends what you want to take from it.

I think this should humble the pros a little. Rory said nobody would break 40. Xander said nobody would break 45

They whiffed big time

The whole “pro setups would have scratch golfers struggling to break 90” is on full display in court right now and the verdict looks rough

I’ll give Phil a lot of credit here. He was playing with Grant recently and said these days there are tons of random amateurs out there that could fire low rounds on tour. He said the modern scratch country club golfers is wildly different with the younger generation
