Devin BonebreakGUEST
Fred Couples is a great example.
Devin BonebreakGUEST
How old is Fred Couples? He's probably like mid 60s, but he's competing even in the Masters some years at Augusta, you know, and that's all age groups.
Devin BonebreakGUEST
And you'll still see him on the top of the leaderboard sometimes, which is really cool.

Gary CullenGUEST
if I'm being honest I'd I'd be saying the dad the two brothers but that's the obvious one but one that as a golfer Freddie Couples was the idol I just loved everything about him so I would I would definitely have him there Everyone would probably turn around and say Tiger Woods, and don't get me wrong, Tiger changed the whole golf scenario.
Gary CullenGUEST
But again, that's an obvious one.
Gary CullenGUEST
I would probably go with a footballer, Andy Gray.
ToddHOST
You never went to the Fred Meyer Challenge?
ChrisHOST
what i know i don't know why other than i mean it was like an exhibition match but it was still like you had the top players peter pulled it off somehow like you'd go up there some years late 90s or late 80s early 90s and you'd have fred couples pain stewart paul a zinger brad faxon i mean you'd have the guys

And then every person's mechanics are different.
Jason BukalaGUEST
Like Jim Furyk has won a gazillion dollars playing golf with the ugliest golf swing for a long time on the PGA Tour compared to Fred Couples.
Jason BukalaGUEST
You know what I mean? Does the ball go in the hole? So I think that my, what I've learned over the years is that with the effort and with the science that they have supporting the behind the scenes that you can fix
Mike FutaHOST
it.
Dan EdwardsHOST
A lot of people do it basically to stretch at this point and don't do it to try and refine.
Dan EdwardsHOST
Um, Back in the day, as I'm thinking through these things, I look at it through the lens of Freddie Couples, who never wants to see his data.
Dan EdwardsHOST
He's looking for a couple things, but he's an incredibly refined golfer.
Dan EdwardsHOST
It's a totally different conversation, but the point being, he's looking for a specific shape window.
Joe PassovHOST
I mean, he played college golf at Houston.
Joe PassovHOST
He and Fred Couples were roommates and best pals.
Joe PassovHOST
I mean, he is pure golf background to go into what he did.
Joe PassovHOST
And so his savvy, his awareness of greatness in golf, whether it's on the design of the golf course or its setting or understanding the role and place of big tournaments and major championships and such.
