Ep157: 'It (Watching Tiger) Was a Moment in History', and the Course Mark Allen says was 'So Bad, the Players Refused to Come'

In the main pod earlier in the week we read a message from Tour Pro and wolfpacker Paul Moloney who had heard Mark talking about being blown away by seeing a 21-year old Tiger Woods could do when he played the 1996 Australian Open. Paul played with Tiger in part of that tournament, and whilst we couldn't get hold of him in the main pod (something about being in a meeting, we reckon he call screened us) we got him to buzz through today.Paul tells us about playing with Tiger and watching him close up, saying in reference to Tiger's Club Head speed that 'it was quite incredible'. He talks through some of Tiger's club selections and how they were different to the other players, and how he felt that watching Tiger in that tournament felt like it was a moment in history. And we find out what Paul is up to these days post his career as a Tour Pro.Then onto some comments and feedback. Wolfpacker Matthew has messaged to let us know that he is listening in Spain, and has just finished playing Club Golf D'Or. Sheez Matthew, way to make us very envious!Adrian has a question about the Australian Masters.Voicemail comes in from Anthony who asks about pathways for young players, Mark tells us a story about Max Charles and Ludvig Åberg at Texas Tech.And wolfpacker Geoff, who is from Melbourne but is presently travelling in the US with his wife, has sent some rake photos in from Idaho that he reckons should end the rakepod discussion for good.We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:Hostplus, Talk Birdie To Me's official retirement partnerBMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;The Find My Player app - follow every player on every tour;And Southern Golf Club.
