Links Golf Is Hard | The Open | Open Moments

[@robinaboy]

I fricken love these “pros hitting bad shots” videos.

[@matthewstuart2054]

Makes me feel better about my game

[@grahambeyer1]

Me too except every 4th shot of mine looks like that😆

[@stephenreeds3632]

I've played one links course in my life. Hit 3 freeways all round and lost 4 balls on one hole. The worst experience. Never ever again.

[@HRHooChicken]

I miss Peter Allis so much. The Open will never be the same

[@jaknap1]

I watch this video before every round I play. It’s a great motivator.

[@alexdonaldson4675]

Hit the big ball first 🌍 love that one

[@Pulse2AM]

Those are good shots for my group.

[@allahalibaba9063]

I love it...Thank You for this...Pros are mere mortals also.....

[@Guitarpick1770]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video 👍🏽

[@stuartyaxley6689]

Links golf made me sell my first set of clubs and take a 3 Yr break from the evil sport we all love

[@fenixrising75]

This was strangely calming to watch.

[@ysgol3]

I played links golf for decades and recently gave it up before it killed me! GREAT video - hilarious - thanks mainly to our beloved Peter of course.

[@mvubu6823]

So many pros wouldn't break 80 and 90 without the ball spotters out there

[@propjoe1060]

Lovely to watch these clips, just to hear the great Peter Alliss on commentary. Sadly missed.

[@CB-ig9ug]

Played 83 there. Love it!

[@paulhenshaw3103]

All these shots combined made up a typical round for me

[@StimParavane]

Lol!

[@aldenaudricmatondo5800]

As someone who isn’t that good at golf yet it’s nice to know that even the pros make mistakes sometimes

[@TherymasterWidnes]

Oh the irony, Jean Van De Veld commentating on Justin Roses' club selection!

[@johnlawler6476]

Peter Allis will always be the iconic voice of golf

[@bg-fl5kr]

Not really, old hand

[@G.5.B.H.M]

@@bg-fl5kr Spot the snowflake. And before you say it, yes, I'm a boomer 👍

[@richardw64]

You all have my sympathies. The guy at the end had the right attitude, unlike me.

[@antjohn1397]

Some of them I’d be happy with😺

[@glumbum6]

14:00 Oh we know what happened. Tired Phil tried to hold a short iron against the wind, flipped his wrists into a brutal double-cross. My fat ass hits this shot every weekend in perfect Florida conditions.

[@yukoncorneliusthelegendhim9751]

that's not a doublecross dude. he released it too aggressively and closed the face more than he intended. simple. his alignment was fine. he was trying to hit a low draw under the wind and overcooked it.

[@eliasgolf2024]

if a ball goes clearly out of bounds and the camera catches it, can a fan pick it up and keep it?

[@cb4023]

Haaaaaaaaaa! Now you know how we feel!

[@propjoe1060]

"That was a dreadful shot. Goodness knows what happened there." - Peter Alliss.

[@luckyscrote]

1:25 Bubba went a bit off track there

[@b.chaline4394]

11:25 Now that's pretty rich from my man Van de Velde, criticizing his club selection at the Open xD

[@semperfidelis8386]

these guys are pros? Look like me out there

[@James_Cy]

The only sport in the world where the pros look like complete noobs sometimes.

[@yukoncorneliusthelegendhim9751]

@@James_Cy i wouldn't say the only sport. guys choke free throws in basketball all the time, baseball players over and under throw routine easy base outs, hockey players slip and fall all over themselves when they try to implement edge work and it fails and when a team isnt jelling it can look like amateur hour out there, f1 drivers put down too much throttle out of a turn and spin the car out or hit a curb and lose control and crash the car. the list goes on. all of these are rookie mistakes that happen frequently to the best in the world in their respective sport. just gotta watch.

[@alexanderjefferies7740]

I’m gonna say it: the rough at the Open Championship is just as awful if not worse as it is at the US Open despite the fact that pros still go under par.

[@jadesmith6823]

The good Old Lucy Locket 😂

[@matthewstuart2054]

Links golf looks like torture

[@grahambeyer1]

Hit the big ball first.. 🤣🤣🤣good one

[@yukoncorneliusthelegendhim9751]

you hate to see it, but you also love to see it at the same time :)

[@ewanmacfarlane9195]

The fact this tournament isnt free to view in the country its played is a disgrace. The R and A should be ashamed.

[@johnklaus9111]

The only challenge i see in links golf is wind.. Outside of that, it’s a penchant for internal ob... What’s the best way to force high Scores? A... replace red stakes with white stakes....

[@jordanwivell9201]

lucy locket in the socket wtf does that mean? lol

[@marcusmonaghan9525]

A Lucy locket. AKA a socket. Like cockney rhyming

[@drvs2262]

It’s an expression for a shank/hosel rocket.

[@nathanavery4681]

lucy locket in the socket you've just launched a hosel rocket

[@HRHooChicken]

a shank

[@Crayma800]

Makes you feel not as bad when you fuck up your own shots locally 😁

[@robertedwards3551]

Finds you out in ways a USGA set up doesn't.

[@obarmelo]

I don't see Tiger in here.

[@BatMan-oe2gh]

Look again, he has one in there. But just one.

[@fenixrising75]

He hit a drop-kick 3 wood on the 18th tee at St. Andrews & missed out of bounds left by 2 yards at 8.28.

[@Karboooo]

0:35 jesus mate youre a pro get a grip

[@touristguy87]

...man, I guarantee that I could play those shots better than that.

The european commentators are from the stone age

[@MC-nb6jx]

If you say so🙄🙄

[@sandersson2813]

Have the heard the US ones? Theyre fucking awful. Cant pronounce any names and do nothing but state the obvious.

[@robertedwards3551]

So's Britain 😀

[@MC-nb6jx]

@@robertedwards3551 … Nah we’re further back than that😉😉🤣🤣

[@G.5.B.H.M]

That's as maybe, but still way better than any nauseating yank commentating. 🤢

[@golfbbqandwatches]

What ever happened to JB Holmes..?? Slowest player on any tour, good riddance to him!

[@lachd2261]

Why did I just watch 15 minutes of crap golf

[@MC-nb6jx]

There is absolutely nothing hard about any of those shots, I play them all the time🙄🙄 The best bit of commentary by far was a certain “Frenchman” questioning club selection from one of the players😳😳🤣🤣
