Sir Nick Faldo is the grandpa stories all us golfers wish we could hear growing up.
Sir Nick sure can tell some great stories. It would bring anybody such joy to have those experiences....and it brings us great joy to hear about them even years later.
Notice that Eric, just watches and listens...he lets Nick quietly end his short story, and then he asks another, and watches and listens again. That's the real treat.
These interviews with Sir Nick are brilliant. He is so generous sharing his story and even some struggles along the way. Fantastic!
Great interview, you guys really let him talk properly with no interruptions. That's how to get great stories.
totally agree, great interview
The recall Nick has of specific shots, holes, position of he and competitors is stunning. Just like Jack and Tiger.
A national icon....could listen to him all day. Best long iron player ive ever seen.....one of the greats
This is a storytelling masterclass!
This was so cool 😎 for Sir Nick to share all those honest & in depth memories with us. He was my idol growing up as a golfing youngster in New Zealand.
Loved this guy's , Our Legend Sir Nick 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧⛳👍
Such a good interview. I went back and watched the end of Nick's first Masters. Amazing tension.
This is key. An exceptional athlete.
The Athlete that goes really far are not a fair dot change even when they are both winning and feeling comfortable. They are prepared to make an adjustment even though adjusting is going to be detrimental. Taking them into an unfamiliar, uncomfortable motion.
It’s so rare there so not a single word for it.
Faldo's golfing success sits neatly in an era between Nicklaus and Woods and in between the 'old' equipment and the onset of the new drivers and golf balls that have transformed the game, especially at a professional level from the more tactical, positional game that he played to the long, power game of today's pros. I wonder would he still put a premium on hitting fairways if he were playing at that top level now, or would he be doing everything he could to go for power and length like a De Chambeau or Fitzpatrick?
Literally.... Faldo wins the 96 Masters, Tiger wins 97 Masters.
@@The-OC Yes and in '97 when Faldo put the green jacket on Woods, at the time it was seen as a new and different approach to the game. More than a changing of the guard, Tiger played the game in a different way that was more exciting to fans and spectators, especially casual fans. The golf course at the Masters had to lengthened to accommodate this.
Loved this - Bring us more heroes please!!
I love Nick. I Have loved Nick ( Sir Nick) since I saw him on TV in the late seventies with his willowy, legs driven, reverse C high hand swing., His Swing for Life book was a kind of bible for me for years. ( It probably taught good and bad habits-go to pro, guys, you can't really learn from a book or vids!) It goes on. He is a bit of hero of mine. Finally walked the course with him at the British Masters last year.It was like heaven for a fanboy like me-except he played absolute rubbish!! I still cheered him on when others didnt!! This video is good. Nick, in spite of all that braoadcasting is still NOT a good speaker; he just struggles to string ideas together or tell a decent story, but hey, he is golfer not a raconteur! But if you are as mad a bout Nick as i am then there is some GOLD in this video. There are some things about the swing change, ( which is my main reason to love him) that i have never heard before. Well worth watching for that alone. Watching him talk about he figured it all out with the crank in the right wrist is just fascinating! And there is a nice bit about "tipping" the course, which i have not really heard before in quite this way. Brilliant.
I love Nick, but I doubt there are too many players in the world that could have ever committed to a change like that, AND become that much better on the other side. It's really quite remarkable, yet imagine Ledbetter running into Trevino with those swing mehcanics? No way. Another thing, boy did he throw us all off with his demeanor on the golf course...so reserved, so stoic. Then this new Nick, or the Nick that was always hiding inside...animated, entertaining, and may I say, a bit of a jokester even.
The French Open story is from '92, which he lost with a final round 74 to Miguel Martin. The Irish Open was a few weeks prior, where he narrowly got the win in a play-off to the late Wayne Westner. The press were getting on his case for struggling in recent final rounds which added to the final round pressure of the Open that summer - hence the reference to the press in his winners speech.
What a story!
Golfing God❤
When Jack's playing Titleist 4, you change ha
Whst a player jeeeez ..❤
Not been mean in any way.but has anyone seen the footage of nick in tears after getting fined for slow play I think it was ,shows how much he loved the game .
Has there ever been a sportsman, not even a golfer, who ever worked as hard? To extract every little bit from their potential?….
Nick picks up a club at age 13. 8 yrs later he beats Jack Nicholson in Ryder Cup.
He didn’t have the advantage of all the stats that modern golfers have. Sergio Garcia may have won more Ryder Cup points but he never faced the competition that Faldo did. Some stats don’t always tell the whole story.
Icon
Fantastic golfer.. but not the most popular with his peers..
If nick did not change his swing , he may not have won all those majors , but I think he more than likely would still be playing on the senior tour - body swingers generally don’t have longevity
Very stupid comment. You play golf at this level its a selfish game. It is all about you. That is golf. It’s not tennis where you have an opponent. It’s you the ball against the field!
Very rude self centred man........
Everyone who played on tour with him would agree.............
Most Champions are and have to be, to be successful
Oh you're so naughy 😅
Golf is a selfish sport when you [lay at this level
No never played with him nor would I bet have you. As a matter of fact you comment as if you know him personally and all those who played with him which I also doubt. Do you even play golf and have you e we competed in a tournament? I kinda guess not but don’t know so won’t act like I know you as you do with Faldo and “everyone who played with him…..
