Ep35: Mark Allen: "This Guy Will be a Golf Superstar"

Another big show this week. Marko wants to discuss his new favourite player, Ludvig Aberg, who he describes as a 'machine'. Nick agrees that he is going to be a superstar and calls him a tall, strapping strong, ball striking machine. Mark reckons he’ll play in the the next US Masters, Nick believes he is the most exciting player since Rory McIllroy.

Speaking of Rory - we discuss Rory's height.

There's great golf swings, and then there is this one from Carl Yuan. Worth a look. Nick and Mark discuss.

Celebrations for the Fitzpatrick family in the Dunhill - what a tournament and what a result for the family. Mum might have outperformed Dad!

Mark discusses Charlie Woods swing, and how he is developing. Clearly an awesome pedigree, so how’s he doing? Nick and Mark discuss. Nick loves how Charlie is developing and calls him a ‘mini-me’ of Tiger, all the mannerisms are the same. Fascinating chat about how Tiger has worked with Charlie to teach him to play, and Nick tells the story of kicking balls with Charlie when he was about 8-years old.

Leading on to Nick and Mark discussing other father/sons in golf.

What about Lexi Thompson being invited to play the PGA tournament in Vegas. Mark and Nick love the experiment and reckon it's great for golf.

Shad Tuten. Very tough outcome for him, nearly had a tour card and missed out after what happened in Indiana. Nick and Mark discuss. Very tough for the young guy.

Nick runs through the PING global results, some rippers and some surprises from around the world. And how about Gabi Ruffels!! Brilliant!

Great voicemail from David Craig from Brisbane with a ripper Top 5 suggestion for Nick and Mark , which we’ll do next week on the show. David suggested Top 5 shots that players would love to redo. Great idea, and if you have a suggestion let us know - you can leave a voicemail or message us on socials.

Lots of great feedback this week. We love it, keep it coming.

So the Top 5 this week is from Mark, he looks at the "Top 5 Non Short Par 4 Fun Holes in Australia". Very specific. Any to add? Let us know.

And a ripping masterclass from Nick on nailing short putts.
