Love the 90s aesthetic of the broadcast. Honey-smooth voice overs and nicely integrated product placement for the region and the golf resort.
Everything was correct and better in the 80s and 90s
Well said Jax!
Agreed, I think this was how it's done
The product placement is not nicely integrated but I do love those voice overs
Well the country has gone completely down the toilet since then. Those days weren't too long off the gold standard and the fiat money scam hadn't taken full hold then.
I recently played that course.. it had some of the widest fairways I’ve ever played on a golf course.. if your wedge game is on it’s actually pretty easy to score well on it. I do have to say the views on the course are absolutely stunning!! And I saw quite a bit of wildlife and fish jumping in the waterways.
These 2 should have started an act. Miss this kind of competition.
JD is one awesome American. I play Freddy's old home course in Seattle often... he's no slouch either :-)
@31:45 Awesome chip in from JD
I don't understand... why does Couples HACK at the ball so aggressively?!? 😆
Not sure why they can’t do this now. Two player match with a wide open course. Social distancing would not be an issue.
13:13 what was that woman doing the devil sign for?
I did some investigation and found out that the guy who shouted out too early on Daly's swing was asked to leave. As he left the course grounds two men in suits put a black hood over his head and threw him into the back of a car. He was then tortured for two hours and given a bill for $50,000 to cover the Daly's loss of earnings. The guy however did survive the ordeal and now works for LIV golf as a paid spectator to shout out; "in the hole!"
Good work.
Take a shot every time you hear “Thanks John”
I blacked out after 9 holes...who won?
@@johnhays2915 LOL
🥴
And take a sip whenever you here. Nice shot John
I have alcohol poisoning. Thanks.
I'm actually in love with these. This was an exceptional program I'm so happy to be seeing for the first times now. Also, Freddy and JD just class acts.
They should do these again . Would love to see it.
I agree
Wouldnt be the same imo. These guys were just so much more endearing and likable than today's players.
JD and Freddy two of the most humble and great players of all time.
The competitiveness with the respect and compliments Freddie and John give make matches like this so awesome makes it so enjoyable to watch
This is exactly what we need right now
what a stunning golf course... I love watching the perfect divots they take.
"I can't hit this...I don't even know if it's my ball" is something I say every time I play. Freddie did a classy job of scolding the spectator there at the end of the round.
Hey SIR!…. You’re a little early… if you don’t mind us.
Not only do these two have among the best swings ever but I love their approaches. They play instinctively
Freddies strut and swagger is off the charts. similar to DJ
I feel more like bubba
@@ricardopanameno402 lol goofy as heck you mean?
Yes !
I was waiting on John to light up a 🚬... lol
Tee off time is 5:01
2nd 11:08

10th 37:20

I'd rather just relax and watch the program
Not sure why they can’t do this now. Two player match with a wide open course. Social distancing would not be an issue.
Bill Gates wants inside you
Here in NSW (a state of Australia), our courses were closed for 24 hours 6 weeks ago before the powers came to their senses. We've been playing groups of 2 ever since, no touching the flagstick, no bunker rakes, no smooching etc. Essential, especially for the older generation who really need both the physicality and socialisation golf offers. It's also really had an impact on the interest shown in golf with overbooking and swelling memberships. Who would've thought??
The distance on the fairway between Daly's drive and mine. Now, THAT'S social distancing.
@@johndickson9542 Damn - you must hit the ball a mile. Very impressive!
@@johndickson9542 SDW
Brings back such fond memories. Two of my favorite players of that era. Class acts both of them, complimenting and encouraging one another. Very nice to see again.
John was prob. hungover... he just needed a sixer and a pack of lights.
Fred Couples... the smoothest swing in golf.
best looking swing of all time imo
@@DMFChavez Agreed!
I might have to give a slight edge to Payne Stewart. Absolute butter. But Freddy's still got a gorgeous swing -- I love the way Augusta turns back the clock for him every year.
Agreeing with ALL the others who've agreed that Fred Couples swing is beautiful. As well I agree with "trdsf" comment that the great Payne Stewart's swing was so magnificent to watch. We miss Payne so much.
@@trdsf Can't wait for him to be in the top 20 again in the first round in November. Augusta just brings something back in that man doesn't it?
Now it takes a 10 million dollar guarantee each and a live prime time TV extravaganza to get top players to face off (over 12 holes). Sad what greed has done to everything. Edit: The winner of this takes home 100K runner up 50K LOL how times have changed.
The smoothness of Fred’s swing is unbelievable. What am I witnessing
Fred's swing
You are witnessing rhythm and melody.......
The respect the players show for each other here is very commendable.
Why cant we have these vibes today. A crowd following the group. The kayaks in the water watching. In-between hole interviews. Two chill dudes golfing
John Daly: "Times have changed indeed":( 44:08
commerce killed modern golf in that way.
Let's just play golf and yak
Thank you PGA Tour for bringing to us these outstanding tournaments played years and years ago. It is wonderful to be able to watch them,, as well we must Thank RUclips for providing the website.
I prefer 90s PGA to the idiots now
I’m trying to think how many times I’ve watched this match. First time I caught it was in 2006...while I was recovering from dental surgery. Time flies!
The sound of Freddie's impact with full pitching wedge is majestic.
He was really underrated his whole career
@@oN3xShOtxkilLhe (and Daly) should have won more than they did. They had the talent for 5 or 6 majors each.
You have some golf in your ads
This proves that Joe LaCava had hair at one time ..
We all know Fred paid that guy to distract Daly, straight up Shooter McGavin style...
Haha on point he reminds me so much of shooter. The two of them is legit happy gilmore
I always thought shooter McGavin was based of Phil. Freddy was definitely inspiration for the dude in tin cup. Don Johnson's character
Couples a true Gentleman, he will keep the match close for respect of his challenger. I've seen him do this several times.
23 years later I'm enjoying this wonderful match between this 2 great golfers on a beautiful golf course with a lot of History....
their clothes are a lot more cooler than these days players with skinny and unmatching clothes
Ok gramps
Jack Whitaker was incomparable. In a class by himself.
There was no one better, loved his commentary on horse racing
Bob Rosburg too!
Jim McKay was pretty good back in the day. Frank Gifford actually called golf pretty well too.
Yes all classics. All had a rhythm like vin s. In baseball.
I could watch this exhibition of golf over & over.....just soooooo pure!!!! Two of my favorite golfers on a pristine facility in the American West. Does it get much better than that?!
Freddie and John is such a good combination.
I've played all three courses at Sun River Resort. The greens are like carpet. My first time there I was on the putting green and actually bent down to touch the grass to see if it was real. And then asked the starter and he assured me it was real and all the greens were that perfect. A golfer's dream coming from hot and humid Virginia and the pockmarked greens.
The starter was on the green??
35:31 ah f**k that was short
Gotta love Johnny boy forgetting he has a mic on lol
Think he said “thought that was short” not fk that was short
Big fan of both these two but man they should've won way more than they did. So much natural talent.
Daly should have at least 20 tour wins and 5 or 6 majors with his talent. Freddie should have 30-40 tour wins 5 or 6 majors too.
@@SN2903bingo, you nailed it. I could never get behind Couples for whatever reason
Couples dealt with back issues even back then or he could have accomplished the aforementioned.
Daly was just enjoying himself living his best life, just like he does today.
Daly gaming graphite iron shafts? That's interesting
That's a wrap! What a flop shot by Daly
I watched John Daly and Fizzy Zeller play an practice round and Riviera and John was joking with the crowd and Fuzzy asked him “are you going to play golf or joke around?” John teed his ball up on a Diet Coke can and hit is 300 yards down the middle and and responded “both”. 😂
shameless amount of commercials
For being such a big hitter, Daly's short game is so underrated! Amazing touch!
Would you like some Golf with your Ads?
All these investments went bankrupt when economy collapsed. . Proves easy peasy beats power game anyday....
43:10 what a golden clip
JD rocking some sumptuous old Oakley's
@46:16 best video shot ever
Ahh 1999 America. Men were still men. Sports were still full of gracious athletes with respect for one another. How far we have fallen since communists stepped on the gas on 9/11 just a couple of years later.
11:57 how tf do you get a 2-iron to land that soft 😭😭😭 dude is a beast..
Couples a true Gentleman, he will keep the match close for respect of his challenger. I've seen him do this several times.
The guy in the crowd was early, but it's up to John to step away and he knows that. He could have stepped away for 30 seconds.
Sometimes when you're set to go though you just have to activate. If someone "sets me off" I'll actually lock in harder to perform.
😂 23:50 is basically PEAK Fred Couples.
“Take a look at this lie- how ya get a lie this good? (*does a little laidback-type stretch) How far we got anyway. (*Hears yardage) Oh boy. Pitching wedge? (Flushes it)”
That’s a man who knows how lucky he is and is loving it/life.
Played this twice earlier in the week. Such a beautiful and very difficult course!
Looks like a monster
Bend, Oregon: now home of the last Blockbuster Video on the planet
haha they still have it?!
Not anymore :(
3:50 Gee, I didn't realize Al Gore was such a big golf fan. Ya think he was worried about those snow caps on the peaks behind him; that they might melt enough to threaten the fairways and greens with a wash out for the event?
I could watch Freddy till the cows come home. Though I earned a fortune when JD won The Open at St Andrews! 66/1 and I stuck tonnes on. Were you friends a tad upset? They were livid. I remember the great Peter Alliss stating that Freddy had the ‘disposition of a black lab’. So true
Like you need any more money. Is an hours golf without advertising too much to ask?
freddy has the best damn swing ever..
Humble Freddie and Just let me play Daly.............
That comment by the spectator sucked… the obviously has no clue about etiquette…
That A hole that messed up Johns concentration. I hope he’s bothered by his actions still today
both players are cool but in complete opposite ways
wasn't sure if I came to watch golf or ads..
What class. That idjit spectator has lots of kids at the tournaments aired these days. Mashed potatoes, light the candle etc. Those days were class
Freddy is the Modern Day Julius Boros with his swing tempo. As kids we remarked that Boros fell asleep at the top of his Back swing.
So this is what they had before Capital One's The Match.
Nowadays there are more people camping in tents in Portland than there are in Sunriver or all of central Oregon.
These should be match play anyway
The shot responses from these two are priceless
😂😂😂 it’s great
Thanks john
As a golf nut l would love to see this come back. Like D.J. vs Koepka are Finau vs Rory and ⛳
Freddy’s silky smooth swing..and JDs brilliant short game….awesome.
What wedges would have big Jon been playing in those days? That flop shot was sweet.
Looks like a 58 degree
If Ernie Els is "The Big Easy"... Fred Couples is "The Seattle Smoothy".
If there's ever another Caddyshack movie, Fred's incessant self-disparaging comment has to be in there: 190 out, 7-iron, "Oh, get down ball". The only time I say that is out of a greenside bunker.
Careful guys, there's a golf match in your add.
Freddie has one of the most sweet smooth accurate tee shots I have ever seen.Both golfers have incredible athletic talent.And both are socially charming men.
He sure has, butter
Freddy seems like he'd be a great dentist.
At least John didn't pull a Pete Weber.😃
Big JD, flashes of brilliance but can't match Freddie in total cruise control. Never breaks sweat.
Would have been a close match if they had played in 1995.
The best televised golf series ever. Not just for the golf either, great travelogue content too.
two of the coolest dudes in the history of golf
they're being so kind to eachother
How we should all treat each other! Even our enemies 🙏
As true Gentlemen are.
56:45 might be the best swing I’ve ever seen. Fred was too smooth with his tempo!
I’m sure that guy that interrupted JD at the end still thinks about what he did... he should #dickmove
I wonder why Couples has such problems with his back...his swing is so smooth.
His long back swing, arms high, may have something to do with it. It really puts a load on the lower back getting back down to hitting position. When he's swinging well, like in this match, not so much a problem, but when his timing is off, he'd be prone to lower back injury/muscle strain.
Watching these old videos you start to realize how much freedom we've lost.........
It's insane
Crazy to think about… worlds gone mad.
Indeed. Not so loud, the bots and trolls will go after all of us for daring to think of a free nation.
@jowaest17
And you have no idea how much worse it’s going to get by 2023!!!
???? What freedom 😂😂😂
These were my favourite golfers when I was a younger fella.
Can you imagine Daly in his prime with the new technology in clubs and golf balls?
Hed still be the same. Nichlaus hit 290 average with wooden head. John just didnt have the head.
One of my two favorite players ever, John is a real dude and Freddy a real gentleman
I had to laugh. John picks the ball then "Shhh*t....Uh-oh". 25:58
I’d love it if we could see Arnie vs Jack in 2001 at King and the Bear.
1962 Byron Nelson match or 1963 Sam Snead match, you had a whole different classy crowds. Just enjoying golf and not trying to be part of the show. This so called cheering.. It's ridiculous. My favorite thing about this covid thing is not having galleries. I detests all the shouting. It really hurt John Daly here.
Daly with a 7 iron 200 yards
Couples with a 5 iron 200 yards. Lol. Crazy
Kyle Berkshire- 9 iron from 200 yards out..🤯
