Karl's 2nd Round Highlights from the S.A. Am Classic (4K)

[@pattydukes525]

he has grown so much since i first started watching. #teamkarl

[@KarlGolf]

Don't turn around or he grows another inch.

[@carolinasport1315]

What an inspiration to me. I shot a 42 on nine here in Georgia, USA in a high school match. I had two double bogeys, but I stayed calm to finish with 5 pars. Staying calm like Karl is the key to playing good golf!

[@KarlGolf]

That's so cool to hear. Have you seen Karl's HS matches on this channel from 2015?

[@dylanbeck6356]

3:40... “Apology... this drive was only 355 yards” haha

[@KarlGolf]

LOL. I also made the point of mentioning that if striped down the middle, it's 299 yards to clear the middle bunkers, and in doing so, Karl is landing on the back of those bunkers and adding a good 20 yards of run. There was also 10-15 yards of wind assist.

[@SuperiorHealthNC]

Thanks for this...been watching Karl for a while...he and Akshay are nice..hope Karl gets a sponsors exemption soon...both on pga tour before long!

[@KarlGolf]

Karl gets offered the exemptions, but we're not in this to see Karl get put under pressure like Akshay got. That expectation can adversely affect a young player. Karl's like the Tortoise in the tale of the Hare and the Tortoise. He still has enormous growth to achieve with a few years at Stanford playing NCAA golf.

[@Blueebe2]

Thanks for filming and posting this video. I really enjoy Karl's golf and your commentary. I'm a fan for life!! Greeting from Las Vegas...…...

[@KarlGolf]

Thank you. We appreciate it.

[@tat-is4of]

Really love these videos especially with all the different camera angles👍

[@KarlGolf]

We try to mix it up a bit for you guys. Nothing worse than the same angle every shot. Cheers

[@davidfrost6910]

Good to see Karl progressing and growing,

[@KarlGolf]

Thanks David.

[@all-americandad9780]

Would love to see Karl play in the U.S. Amateur at Pinehurst this year!!

[@KarlGolf]

He'll be there, because he's exempt due to his ranking. Cheers

[@all-americandad9780]

Awesome!!!

[@calle3057]

I would greatly appreciate if you could upload some training footage of Karl, such as an uncut range session. Great job with this vid, best of luck to Karl!

[@KarlGolf]

Just search KZbin for Karl Vilips training drills. Here's a complete session we did a few years ago. kzbin.info?search_query=karl+vilips+full+range+session, and Karl also did a 6-part series for Golfing World TV including this one for putting: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXPLmKxujZKcr7M

[@calle3057]

@@KarlGolf Oh thank you, missed that one!

[@Btayl618]

What's in the bag coming soon???

[@KarlGolf]

Already in the can. release should be in a week or so.

[@lukebeckman9500]

Keep it going Karl! Your a stud!

[@insidiiious4795]

Great putting as always karl. Keep it up

[@KarlGolf]

That's his new counter-balanced Taylormade Spyder which they especially for Karl.

[@Leo-eb1wl]

his swing reminds me a lot of jason day, he really covers the ball with his right side through impact.

[@KarlGolf]

A lot of people do mention that. Cheers.

[@Dediskated]

Great round! Keep it up kid

[@jackwilker5205]

Karl’s back and business, strictly business

[@KarlGolf]

LOL

[@timmcgrath3995]

He looks like he has a great short game. What are his Fairways hit and GiR stats generally like these days?

[@KarlGolf]

Good question. Karl can swing well in excess of 120mph and hit half his fairways, but we find that of he dials it back to 117, he'll average 12 of 14 fairways.

[@timmcgrath3995]

Wow! That's elite. How about his greens hit %?

[@courtneyfuller1056]

Karls overall game looking very compact!!

[@KarlGolf]

Thanks Courtney

[@gilbertquijas5540]

Swings looks really strong. When u coming to California

[@KarlGolf]

Hopefully for the US Open at Pebble Beach as Karl is through to the Sectional qualifier.

[@Dediskated]

Karl Vilips thats awesome!

[@rescueranger78]

How come you never show his bad holes? I’d like to see how he handles himself in difficult situations

[@KarlGolf]

Sure we could, but these are highlights. When the PGA Tour shows highlights it doesn't show the bogies either.

[@InterDimensionalObserver]

Karl Vilips True

[@rescueranger78]

Not always true, if tiger or Phil or DJ makes a big number the pga tour always post it everywhere they can often with a headline of ‘golf is hard’ lol

[@foregardens9776]

Who’s here before karl’s world no. 1

[@rufusjenkins5637]

u got this man doin calf raises?

[@KarlGolf]

It's a genetic predisposition.

[@gamerman7243]

what is Karl's weight and height approximately? Great video!

[@KarlGolf]

Height is 5'11" and weight? No idea.

[@grantburback7188]

What’s in the bag?

[@KarlGolf]

Next week.

[@seanmechling5760]

Do a 2019 what’s in the bag!

[@KarlGolf]

It's already in the can as we recorded a lot while Karl was here for his Spring Break. Gotta get this tournament video out first though before we release that.

[@seanmechling5760]

Ok. Good deal!

[@joakimsorberg1021]

Start using protracer, but your golfplay is amazing

[@KarlGolf]

I use a PC and have had trouble finding a download suitable for it.

[@joakimsorberg1021]

@@KarlGolf Nice, my handicap is 8.0. I have played golf for 3 years. Do you have any tips for my upcoming tournaments? You maybe know one of the members from my practice group: Ludvig Eriksson?

[@Medrewsa]

Love to see the progress over the years, get rid of those couple bogies and he could be like Akshay pretty soon

[@KarlGolf]

We're not overly fussed about the bogies. The coach at Stanford will sort that out pretty quickly as they have access to sports shrinks which we can't yet afford. Most fans don't realize that we don't have the funds for a well recognized coach, let alone 3 of them.

[@Medrewsa]

@@KarlGolf Absolutely, definitely not meaning to bash Karl or you for making a few mistakes on the course here and there. Every score has a story, that's for sure. And if Karl has made it this far without a well recognized coach, etc. I already know he'll be a powerhouse with those resources once they're available to him. Been keeping up with y'all for years now, since I was starting high school and now I'm almost in my third year of college. Love to see the dedication both of you have put into this. Keep it up!

[@lukemosley6762]

How old is Karl and has he got a college scholarship

[@ethanroberts3874]

Luke Mosley he’s going to Stanford

[@KarlGolf]

Karl's 17 and has a full ride to Stanford.

[@H0VA]

It is not easy to play a round of golf in Australia even on a sunny day! That wind can be a real determining factor.

[@KarlGolf]

Best to play in the mornings with the birds. there's usually not a breath of wind at 7am.

[@Randsurfer]

There needs to be an arm-wrestle rematch with Gabriel. This time Karl looks like he'll fling Gabe out of the cart barn.

[@KarlGolf]

Good Lord. Karl would snap Gabe's arm off. LOL

[@Randsurfer]

@@KarlGolf Ha ha. Please let Gabe see this ^^

[@Jim_Harwood]

A Lee Westwood kind of swing action

[@joshcolbert5613]

C'mon Dad feed us more were hungry over here!

[@KarlGolf]

Open up kids....

[@Randsurfer]

First hole of the video (Hole 8)... approach shot... How does he stop the ball like that hitting from that terrible lie? I want that skill so badly.

[@KarlGolf]

Just lucky, right?

[@Randsurfer]

@@KarlGolf Doubt it. Hope you're well, Paul.

[@jakeleonard1117]

Once Karl learns to not make 7 bogies a round or have 3 doubles in there he will be nearly unbeatable

[@KarlGolf]

He learnt from Phil the Thrill.

[@jordanjohnston506]

dewy you ween

[@JadenWard]

DADDUY

[@braedendonohoe893]

too bad you had to pay for balls tho haha

[@KarlGolf]

What a numpty policy that was. Last year's entry fee was $120 and it went up to $200 this year, so as a bare minimum, the players were expecting that the range balls would be included. it's not about the money grab, but the fact that comparable tournaments include the range balls. No problems for Karl however, as we simply asked the Grange Golf Course located next door if Karl could practice there and they were incredibly generous. That said, the course was in superb condition.
