Faldo shot 67 on a rock hard, difficult course that day. One of his finest ever rounds.
2nd shot to the 11th had a beautiful sound on contact. Perfect wedge shot. 2:20
Faldo was sometimes an idiot as a person – but as a golfer he sometimes reached greatness. Final round of the 1996 Masters is one of the finest rounds in the history of the tournament – but people only remember Normans collapse that day.
Faldo played some of the best golf i’ve ever seen on a sunday in a major, yet everyone only remembers him for 18 straight pars.
@5:20. The guy in the red shirt is not actually sitting on a chair.
Nick, “Mr. Smoothswing,” Faldo.
dang my car was new that year.. feels like its super old now
I don`t speak a word of Japanese, but these two guys are making more sense to me, than Sam Torrance ever did when he commentated on the BBC.
@3:48 – fucking disco. how to hit a 2 iron in a major….
faldo was the only guy in the field to shoot under par on the weekend
the 90’s were fuckin awesome
True, I got carried away. My mistake.
Norman’s final round was 78. Granted – not a good round, but not “in the 80s”
Reminds me of Match Racing with Yachts, “Norman” sailed away from us on day 1, keeping the hammer down he put many miles on us, day two he kept the foot down too long,, blew out his sails and we quietly sailed past to finish first.
Slanty eyed cunts
This Japanese commentary’s brilliant, even though I can’t translate a single word of it! 🙂
Norman’s meltdown largely overshadows Faldo’s performance. After all, the great sensation comes from an epic failure rather than quiet success. We see in this clip Faldo’s consistency. While there were no Eagles, dramatic chip-ins, or pin point approach shots, Faldo hit greens, 2-putted and got up and down when he had to. This greatly emphasizes the value of steady golf. While Norman set a record in his first round, he matched that volatility on the other end by shooting in the 80s that Sunday.
To quote Peter Alliss……”Thats the way champions do it.” Magnificent Nick, MAGNIFICENT!!!!
