Ian Poulter talks joining LIV Golf, Ryder Cup and turning pro off 4 hcap!

[@warrenbutson349]

What Poults did at Medinah will remain one of the greatest catalysts for winning the Ryder Cup ever, he single handedly deliverer belief to an entire team they could win. What a hero to Europe and pain in arse to USand we love him for it!!

[@bschott2384]

Tour/LIV status aside, Ian is and always has been a genuine and transparent human being. Great guy and at the end of the day, a Dad and really great personality. Well done gents!

[@JH_Golf_]

Hearing him speak about Liv was absolutely fascinating and it really opened my eyes to why it was so attractive to so many golfers. One of the best podcasts to date 👏👏

[@hoztravels2024]

Money, nothing but money. The rest is just filler

[@kingtaco1472]

I agree if you've ever booked a flight much less at the last minute it sucks. Then figuring out dinner schedules and such. It made more since coming from him than the bone head that screams only money.

[@chomskybhoy]

Not watched it yet but I’m guessing cash had something to do with it

[@nickupjohn8586]

Just loved that , always been a massive Ian Poulter fan , so honest and genuine. Good luck Rick .

[@kymlorincz2502]

I went to LIV Adelaide. It was my first ever golf event, and it was amazing! Being able to see some of the best players in the world come within 4 hrs of my hometown and play some top-quality golf up close and personal in an awesome relaxed atmosphere was unreal! I was also on the watering hole for Chase Koepkas hole in 1..... wow, just wow, memories that will stay with me for a lifetime! LIV brought to Australia what PGA never would.

[@amc5966]

Brilliant. The lads should be in the meetings between LIV and the PGA because they would certainly smooth the road forward! Ian came over brilliantly. Top man and very interesting listen.

[@andrewroberts4787]

How can anyone doubt Ian Poulter after everything he’s done for Europe in the Ryder Cup - they will definitely miss him - another great podcast 👍🏻

[@Mr.Ellison402]

Fantastic interview. Candid, funny and incredibly honest. I think the way you and Guy put your questions across really got Ian talking. Thank you!

[@korizen]

Best podcast ever!!! Thank you so much! Ian is a treat!!!😁

[@Googy1972]

You know what.. I was never a big Poulter fan, decent player but just couldn't "like him" like Darren Clark or Westwood. Never really heard him speak at length until today & I now find him engaging, likeable & a decent bloke. Very happy to have my mind changed. Great Interview...Great podcast

[@wayneignatowski2077]

Great interview! I must say that Ian broke my heart at Medinah! As I’m sure you can tell I am from the USA and live in Chicagoland. All is good! Thanks again for a great interview.

[@bazgreenall5437]

I have always been a poulter fan and that will never change, and that was by far the most enjoyable youtube video I've seen . Really enjoyed it Rick. More like that please. And I cant wait for your round with ian.

[@vevey75]

That was one of the most down to earth genuine interviews I have heard.

[@bernardhampson3472]

What an absolute pleasure listening to the legend

[@alanstewart878]

What a great watch it was fantastic to just listen to Ian Poulter talk and be honest and relaxed he is a great family man and I would love to go for a few beers with him I bet it would be a blast

[@sebdee7]

Wonderful Podcast, thank you, BUT… Guy - you can’t wear a hat in the clubhouse, been a member since 95 and learnt my lesson when thrown out one afternoon as a 15 year old by Alex Hay… proud to still call it my home club

[@markroberts3051]

This was never going to be anything other then absolutely tremendous, GOATS of golfing KZbin/podcasts for a reason, cannot wait for the match 👏 👏 ❤️ ⛳️

[@alankeegan9103]

One of the best podcast yous guys have done! Love listening to Ian

[@tonyreagan4553]

Ricks podcasts and KZbin are the best. Pouter is Always a team player , family man and a class act who loves competition. The insight on LIV was great , speaking on golf as a business and personalizing it with his kids makes him successful. Love to hear about his cars and racing but next time. Brutal when he beat the Americans for us , each time but he was absolutely the best in the Ryder cup and he should be a Captain and continue to battle.

[@jamesmcintosh98]

Poulter is my childhood golf memory. Watching him as a child with my grandparents. Still one of my favorite player. Comes across as a great guy. Loved this podcast. One of my favorite

[@patrickwillard1261]

What a great interview. Thank you to all and especially Ian for his candour. Very refreshing to hear

[@ralphschiefer7576]

Great interview, and Poulter is class.

[@andrewwright380]

Poulter is a legend (& a great family man & golfer). His Ryder Cup heroics are unlikely to be surpassed.

[@berkshiregolfer]

Arguably the best podcast yet. Ian Poulter is as honest as they come and it was great to hear his take on things.

[@jpmorris8759]

Loved Ian, loved his views on how he plays the game. Thank you Rick and always Guy. Stay safe to all!!

[@kingtaco1472]

Its refreshing to hear you talk LIV with Ian. You certainly weren't this relaxed about your view on LIV when the topic first presented itself. Im glad you got to have a face to face conversation with him about the league.

[@tomstretton2627]

Amazing interview, love the openness.

[@WheelerRickRambles]

At 57 and playing golf since 7 (handicap was 2 at one time). I have on my calendar 5 weeks each yr - the 4 majors and the Players. Quite frankly, many of the other weeks I’d be fine just listening to these guys talk golf & how it happens, how its created…at that level. “Watching” more golf is not feeding my current fix!

[@matsholmberg1272]

Another wonderful episode. One of the wonderfullest so far!

[@ianryan606]

Wow, Ian Poulter what a great pod cast/video, I just love how he is so family orientated, and his out look on golf is great, love watching him play and his passion, the LIV golf program fits in to his family life. He comes across as very approachable and is honest and down to earth.

[@jonburgess1998]

Amazing! It's brilliant to watch someone you followed for years grow!

[@StG2k]

I just love this guy! Since 1999! Awesome player!

[@rallyeG604x4]

Enjoyed that from the postman!

[@KeithBurson437]

Brilliant podcast, best yet

[@DaringDan]

This is why I have so much respect for Justin Rose and Rickie Fowler. They were prime candidates for leaving for LIV when LIV started. Rick and Justin both seemed on the way out skill-wise. What'd they do? They stuck on TOUR, grinded through the playing woes. Justin won and Rick is back in the Top 20 and will be on the Ryder Cup Team again. Spectacular!

[@bowzer9731]

Awfully silly now tho turning down that free bag

[@DaringDan]

@@bowzer9731 Disagree because instead of going with money they don't need they went for proving something to themselves and they did it.

[@bowzer9731]

@@DaringDan they proved nothing other than what Phil explicitly said that the PGA Tour does not listen to the players and is run by hypocrites

[@ggkk6474]

Respect!!!!....who are you to make a comment on skill and how players want to make a living?....All players come to road blocks in golf Tiger,Jack,Hogan just to name a few and they work it out.The PGA tour is boring without the players who left for the LIV tour + legacy means nothing today, $$$$$$$$'s pay the bills.

[@DaringDan]

@@ggkk6474 I can offer my respect to whomever I want, homie.

[@garethnewstead6793]

That was so good, the guy is so likeable!

[@dougie6897]

Poults will make an unbelievable RYDER CUP captain…in the not too distant future I’ve absolutely no doubt… He’s the peoples champion and every European golf fan loves Ian 😀

[@sphgolf4167]

Great podcast gents, big fan of the postman who never fails to deliver. Look forward to the ten shot challenge. Kudos 👏

[@swieri2003]

If you are from the UK, or Europe, or Ireland like myself, and love Golf, and the Ryder cup, IP is a fkn legend, absolute baller

[@tonytomlin6089]

Hey Rick, Woburn is nowhere near Watford. It is closer to Milton Keynes, different county.

[@PeteKane]

How he plays team golf is remarkable😊 His passion, and determination, and is very effective in leading a team, you can only admire him I wish I had a guy on the US team like that . We have some good golfers on USA but nobody rallies a team like Ian He’ll go down in history as one of the greatest Ryder Cup players 💪⛳️ Good podcast

[@Golffreak1968]

Great podcast. I'm a fan off Ian. He is open and honest in his comments and answers. Can't wait to see the match between you two.

[@TheKoreanStarrbuck]

And just like that, I became a Poulter fan.

[@ddeboy002]

good luck Ian. Really you'll need it.

[@rgiordano8224]

Enjoyed Ian. Likeable, great conversation.😊

[@sijones501]

Love how he fully admitted the money was nice. Just say it - I don’t judge ANY of them for taking the money - I disrespect the ones who’s refuse the acknowledge it!

[@brucmar]

Fantastic interview. Ian was great.

[@rob19-ini]

Not been a fan of Liv but to be fair just want everyone to get on with it now. Love how open and willing to discuss it he is. And generally seems a top guy. One of the better tour pro guests for sure. Gone up in my estimation a lot

[@markhinde6187]

Ian Poulter has class, enjoyed every minute of this post, thanks

[@mikeboler7508]

What a podcast. Listened in the car and ran into house to watch the video. Really enjoyed this podcast!

[@eddieclinton2796]

Brilliant podcast the Postman always delivers

[@jarrettmcgregor1001]

Great ivw R & G. I love Liv. The main reason is because i know who is playing week to week so I get to connect with them. And Poults is a bit of a hero of mine.

[@benmarnoch4111]

Really interesting to get a Liv player's honest view at last!

[@Hunter-zp5hd]

I’ve always enjoyed watching Ian Poulter. As an American watching the Ryder Cup he’s made me upset many times, but it’s all about the competition. I saw an interview with him at his home on the Golf Channel one time, and I liked the guy. He’s a down to earth dude. He’s a family man who loves his wife and kids. We all need to put that in perspective when judging others.

[@joemoss7734]

ive been a fan of his since he came on tour wearing loud pants… loved this. thanks guys

[@samalexander8408]

Rick, why do you reference Woburn GC near Watford? Only a couple of miles from Milton Keynes!!!

[@philipcarthy2977]

Fantastic interview, and great golf game between Rick and Ian.

Thank you

[@jeffreyewing1168]

Being an American, I was a huge Payne Steward fan. I have to admit Poltz is now my favorite golfer. He’s class personified, a fantastic family man. This was a great podcast, keep up the great work Rick, and Guy !!!

[@martinsparks6410]

Ian Poulter, you have changed my opinion of you, what a great guy just shows you that bad information should not be listened to. I was wrong ! great pod cast thankyou Mr Shiels and Guy !!

[@brett5991]

Poults is such a legend, such a humble guy. His social media is hilarious. Cant wait to see him back at a Ryder cup in any sort of capacity. Gutted to have never bumped in to him at woburn.

[@mikesnowden1054]

Glad Ian is enjoying the holiday (and even less opportunity to watch him!). I manage a 2 week holiday about once every 5 years including Xmas. And my dad was away working for 9 months+ a year, so I do know how important time spent with your kids is. However - real question - are players playing too much for the "best golf"? Koepka recovered on a LIV schedule. Should players have a schedule that maxes out as eg 40 matches a year? What's best, especially in a Ryder Cup year?

[@peterscuba]

Bit heavy on the family chat but LIV chat mainly from 1:04:00

[@Rick-C-117]

Thank you. I wasted so much time skipping and skipping ahead.

[@paultownsend7157]

What an absolute legend that man is! I would love to meet him and play a round. Great podcast guys - well done! Can't wait for Part 2 in Orlando!

[@samsmith3705]

What a legend and a great guy now release the video pls

[@peltzarino]

Went into this and the break 65 match pretty indifferent on Ian but after watching and listening to the podcast, I'm a big fan!! Well done Rick and Guy!

[@jackmccann370]

Loved every minute of that. Waiting for part 2 in Florida!

[@jtillison]

Thanks not asking how he can justify taking Saudi money. He did a great job of explaining why he enjoys LIV. What a great guy!

[@dannyh2152]

Great interview. I like Ian’s level of honesty.

[@johneden3810]

Another top podcast lads. Fingers crossed the powers that be move on, and all those Ryder Cup legends get to captain one day

[@stuartmitchell7287]

Looking forward to the match and Episode 2 of the interview when that happens. Ian Poulter comes across really great. I get his take on LIV and honest to say the big bag of cash was a driver.

[@MiaMo13213]

What a set up 👌 Good luck with the new channel Rick 👍🏻

[@Daniel189HLL]

Superb .Anyone who unsubbed because a Liv guy was on doesn’t understand money and sport in the slightest. Bravo Rick and Guy

[@calleblomquist8440]

[@danielrice7409]

Love Poulter and im American. Postman always delivers. He is great for golf and I concur he should be let back into Ryder cup eligibility. Great podcast.

[@andyh2287]

Great guy, what's not to like honest, straight, and not interested in politics, just golf and his family loved it 👍

[@MatthewC123]

Loved that, love Poulter but really need a part two at some point like you said so much more to cover specially ruder cup wise! That could be a episode in itself

[@andymeek]

Woburn isn't in Watford or near North West London, it is on the Bedfordshire/Buckinghamshire border. Down south is all the same to these northern folk.

[@ZackS_13]

The studio looks great. Definitely had to subscribe to see more content in it.

[@nickcauser727]

I’ve always liked Ian and to be honest; the only reason anyone didn’t was because they were influenced by the PGA Tour PR outlets following his move to LIV. Golf is golf at the end of the day and I’m glad the PGA and PIF merger means people can look back and realise how ridiculous the hatred/disliking of certain players was. Ian is a class act who gave his all on multiple tours and I’m glad people now realise he didn’t do anything wrong. Good luck to the man.

[@leeschaeffer3209]

I wasn’t influenced by the “PGA Tour PR outlets.” I was influenced by Ian Poulter himself. He, Westwood, Garcia: over-rated and over-the-hill guys chasing easy money before turning 50. And, the “merger” is not a done deal. Don’t be shocked if it doesn’t happen.

[@nickcauser727]

@@leeschaeffer3209 so you dislike him because he went to earn more money for doing less work? That’s what you’re saying? Interesting take…

[@jasonhutty]

Ive always been a massive Ian Poulter fan, but if you don't understand that LIV is detrimental to the game, you're perhaps missing the point yourself. Having large portions of professional golf owned by a private, for-profit group is a terrible outcome, whether it's PIF or the new PGA-Tour/PIF conglomerate.

[@seegarsmkr]

Can't wait for Part II love these!!

[@makakaiv]

I got to watch Ian play at the DC LIV event great down to earth man. Guy is spot on when saying you are up close and personal with the players. You can either follow your favorite player around, hang in one spot and watch everyone come by, or do the reverse walk the course and see everyone at different holes. One big plus you don’t have to sit around and wait for the player you want to watch, everyone is out playing at the same time.

[@patrickbeach5915]

I definitely missed the IJP tech trousers. I was lucky enough to be at Doral when they launched. I still have the white crocodile belt with the swarovski crystal logo belt buckle.

What a class act Ian Poulter is, could have watched another 3 hours of this. Such a shame he won't be at the Ryder cup this year and i believe Europe will miss him badly.

[@chadode9048]

You called it in the intro - Ian is not the person I expected. What a cool guy - genuine and fun to listen to. Great interview!

[@Chris_UES]

Couple of years ago I was at Liberty NJ when he was exiting a player on course bathroom… a fan took a picture as he emerged… Poulter “I hope that was worth the wait”

[@ladgolf6330]

Great pod. Poulter, Westy , Sergio etc have taken some pretty unwarranted stick, and even at times, abuse since joining LIV - so it's good to see Ian getting a good platform to put not only his point across, but to unveil his personality to those that don't really know what kind of guy he is.

[@Smiththebat]

It just goes to show that most people don’t really understand handicap systems and what they REALLY mean. They only really apply if you’re talking about someone’s HOME course that they play REGULARLY.

[@Quinnaaay]

Big props to Poults a true icon in the game
