Tourist Sauce S9 - Who will be the golf daddy?

“Oh hell yeah” I say as I’ve been nursing an injury for two years.

Edit to update:

@Soly was in the clear. Fair play.

Other thoughts from the episode:

  • The golf was good. One of my favorite matches in TS history
  • RM West looks like a blast. Surprised me how much I enjoyed it without knowing a ton about it going in.
  • Soly’s socks. What are we doing there, bud? Not good.
  • The subtlety of the music really worked for me this episode. I always love the playlists but enjoyed the instrumental pieces. I thought they complimented the classiness of the course and let the course be the vocals.

+1 to all of this, especially the music. Masterfully done @djpie and Mrs. Pie!

Random theory while watching last night……are the clocks ticking at the beginning of each episode a tip of the cap to the opening scene of Back to the Future since they are back to where it all started in Australia? #1.21gigawatts

@Soly please, I beg of you, do NOT listen to the haters and losers (of which there are many).

The socks were fine.

Would love a separate video that was just “Soly & TC: Every shot at Royal Melbourne West”.

No music, no commentary, minimal production, just the two guys and their self-talk & in-group chatter.

I didnt think they were bad.

Royal Melbourne Unplugged. Interesting.

Soly and TC’s best ball score would have been LOW! Best golf played in TS history at maybe the best golf course in TS history. A+

Bravo on the episode. An all time golden hour at maybe the best course in the world. Combination of music, light and shots I think elevated the experience and made watching feel like how it felt to play RM West.

Also glad to see the deep dive on 3. A fantastic golf hole that I think about a lot.

Special place!

I think @Soly is in the clear. X-Ray just came back of the back injury and it turns out the topical substance was used for animal treatment.

Part way through

No talk of the drop on 5 from Soly? Don’t see that dirt marked as GUR…. :wink:

We should have been on Soly the whole time as a horse for the course

it looked like it settled into a sprinkler head/drain cover of some sort (at least I remember thinking that when the ball settled).

Unsure if the two club lengths got him to the grass or if there was additional scummiess afoot

all said and done, this may well have been my favorite ep of the season so far. RM West is just so fucking pretty, the golf was sick the MCG was sick and just all in all, so fucking good.
I think after every episode I say something to the effect of “I just cannot get over how much I love how cinematic they are with these [vs any of the other content creators who just show every shot and scores and whatnot]” TS is tough to beat.

Will Soly’s Rapigel usage tarnish his Tourist Sauce legacy, similar to Vijay’s deer antler spray use?

This, and more when we return to First Take!

It’s a question that needs to be asked. Is this like when that reporter saw the bottle of androstenedione in McGuire’s locker?

It looked like the ball may have settled on a sprinkler head within that bare patch.

I honestly looked at those and thought, “Hey those are kind of nice. Wonder where I can get a pair.” But I also prefer the low cut socks - I thought maybe there was a regulation at the course, but Tron was wearing the no peek style socks, so it’s just personal choice.

Either way, find a new slant, as someone might say.
