PGA Tour Star and Major Champion Collin Morikawa Captains an adidas Golf team as we take on a 4 person alternate shot format to tackle a Par 4 in San Diego.
Collin offers fantastic insights on his Ryder Cup partners as Connor Laubenstein and myself discuss alternate shot strategy with our two professionals.
Ladies European Tour Pro Annabel Dimmock explains the importance of knowing your partners game and how she enjoys pairing up with Team TaylorMade professional Charlie Hull.
Strategy and game management is discussed with amazing information available throughout to help with your own game.
A huge Thank You to adidas Golf for making this happen, great banter and a pleasure to have the guys out.

What’s up folks I formed a crew we’ve got our man Colin marau with us he is going to hit the t- shot Annabelle is going for the putt because she’s claiming injury W I’m arm lock and Claw and then you and I are going to fight over the second shot if it’s nasty
You’re hitting it if I like it I’m hitting it for okay right let us down there mate what are you seeing I don’t really know I think we’re just going to aim at the pin and hope it finds Fairway looks about right right try I think so mate little peeler off
The last tree yeah let’s see if we can hit a cut man of your capability oh hello sit sit hard please be seated oh yeah we’re fine yeah sweet yeah that was nice and all right well try I like The Confidence from the I’m not certain that’s absolutely fine we’ll
Get down there and have a look though I sawce okay mate and then we’ll see where it went it’s on grass okay perfect you keep telling us Connor I’ll get your bag it’s the only one left thanks mate I’ll carry this for you mate TR I
Even left you farther cuz it seemed like you didn’t want a wed shot so I didn’t fancy uh I’m going to say you got probably like a 9 iron in I like whiffed the drive I’m genuinely worried it’s not in play but it’s all right everyone else
Seems chill I mean landed movie Magic landed in the grass what’s the best scramble team is can any of you think of the best scramble team you’ve ever had I don’t I don’t know I’ve ever had really a official scramble teams do you know what I mean you don’t have a set
Scramble team no I don’t have my usual scramble goto I God I couldn’t tell you the last time I played a scramble well maybe scramble in like as you get away from that’s cuz you two are too Pro worldish as you get into the chill world everything seems to
Be scramble when you bring your mates out who are absolute at your home Club is it more of a scramble VI people can’t afford to hit that many shots yeah you just you know you get your mates who are just shocking and you still want them to
Be part of it they get to come out in the scramble they would still want to enjoy the game and experience it with you but oh you know what I did play a scramble at my bachelor party there you go yeah yeah I don’t remember much of it
But yes do do you remember who you playing partners with uh it was me my brother and uh another one of my old teammates it was a three on three or it’s four three on three I think how can you have a three on three scramble I
Thought it was a four man scramble well you can have a bonus shot would you play every third shot I think uh I mean we could scramble you play every shot we could petition you add scramble as a professional yeah I guess if should this is this is a this is an
Alter this is this is fourman alternate shot this is fourman alternate shot but if my Pit shot into the screen is shocking we’re going to change it to a scramble I like that or a shamble at the that was where I was going with this whole conversation
I thought we were playing like a four ball Better B we are but you’re just here for the putting claw master I’m hoping that is a gimme to be honestly it sit and chill but it should be really do you think there should be more professional alternate formats like
Alternate shots scramble best of two Etc it’s hard cuz like you to get world ranking points and to do all that stuff would be kind of a nightmare yeah um I mean you know we have the Zurg classic that I play in and it’s fun but it’s
Just it’s a lot for the week cuz it you could feel like you’re playing well and then your partner doesn’t play well and you’re going home after two days TR uh I’m not really seeing the ball but no I said that but maybe we’ve just come for
A 310 yard walk the tightest hole here to do this on we have got one of Annabelle Annabelle hold on a minute we have got one of the game’s best drivers with us I mean would dare I wouldn’t dare I would would not dare miss a
Fairway I wouldn’t do that to you but I feel like I definitely did so Colin let me ask you this mate I mean the Ridder cup Partners you surely when that draw comes out the feeling must be different level when you see some of the names you’ve had next to
Yourself um yeah I’m going to today this brilant it’s so fun and then you see you’re playing again um yeah know I you never know like especially I I’ve been playing a lot of alterate shot in the rer cups and presence cups and that’s kind of like that’s been my little Forte it’s
Been really fun cuz you really don’t know how anyone’s going to play like some guy could come out and just absolutely destroy it and you know you might be up in five Halles or you might be down in five Halles it’s kind of that’s what’s fun about ultr shot yeah we got a
Live one I thought you were texting your coach there I’m looking How Far We’ve G it’s not even a phone it’s not even a phone he’s got I’m just trying to Google his uh partners and see how happy he was with him8 108 where you getting that
From I’m 145 yeah 146 I’m getting okay to the back there that’s all you that’s perfect try yeah I’m really happy with that I’m just not happy they not my golf clubs but we’ll see how here we go I’m happy with that I like the way he’s
Kicked it in the roof and giv me a shocking life no but if we’re playing you know scramble shamble alternate shot okay now I’m happy with the situation the yardage on your phone is that what you’re looking at this is giving me the yardage of a GPS of the go well mapped
Out of the golf course so 160 to the back probably 150 to the flag isn’t it this is handy little thing Sky Cy I’ll put I’ll get your phone number we’ll hook that up for you anille don’t worry you got any discount codes I probably
Can sort that out for I mean to be honest with you she doesn’t know that I know everyone in the game of Go she we can probably sort you out 150 what you reckon uh guys eight or nine touch in pretty cold it’s chillian to win that’s
What I’m saying not saying you’re not going to get there with a nine but giving exactly I’m waiting for Colin to say something he hasn’t said anything I know I was I was going to say nine like a little jumpy landed 10 short rolls up
Like well the first one was a rendus I mean I think the greens are kind of firm I don’t know if I can get there with this I got to be honest play the jumper hands a little forward listen to this boy hi face I think I’m
Going to leave you with a long putt here Connor I’m going hit a little ltime guys that’s what I want to do okay I got out voted that’s what I’m doing I got the putter out now Charli no pressure he’s worried about the jumper now I’m worried
About the jumper no no you teed it up I went easy on it mate oh it’s good below it’s not it’s miles away it’s 20t look at the man’s face disappointed with it you just you got scared you I did get scared yeah we yeah you left me some
Meat I knew that I’ve got the potting Master going next and the tap in Queen so it’s like I was okay with that why are we making the first PL why are we why are we tapping it in because you give me something to do I’m trying number one share the responsibility of
This whole Quest down this hole got it I didn’t want anyone to feel left out no you done well Annabelle any playing Partners in any major your team events that come to mind and what do you look for in a playing partner cuz Connor and I are talking about teaming up together
In this amateur event so we’re just checking each other out now if we like it well normally in the Aram codes I play with Charlie which is good we have a similar we’re both quite aggressive players I think it helps when you’re playing in a team like especially if
You’re doing your own score to play with someone that you hit similar yardages and things like that just it’s easier obviously on par 3s and things like that you can converse and like on clubs and things like that if look like what what is she saying what do you do what do you
Do if things aren’t going well in team situations are you the type of player that turns around and says Ah sorry about that or are you the sort of player that’s like hey you can’t apologize you don’t say sorry where’s your head are you looking at me I I’m asking you the
Question just Cu uh no you want you want a partner that’s like not afraid to step up and try and hit a shot I mean it I think when you play scared and you play shy as a partner like that’s when things go bad cuz team golf you never know how
It’s going going to turn out so you want someone that’s like willing to literally take on every shot and like pull it off you mess up you mess up it’s so it’s interesting because you said to me there you hit you I felt like you said I hit a
Scared shot yeah well I think I was I was throwing too many options in your head and uh so how do you get out of the flow of hitting a scared shot though well you just step up and hit it if you hit it if you hit it long you hit it
Long but like you know your gut was telling you eight that’s why you switch back to an eight um you think it took some guts of me to against I think because I said n and like that’s why that’s why you SW that’s why you swung
Softer I definitely had a bit of like in my head who am I to over roll Colin on a soft eight iron here which is crazy cuz I only been playing the game about 25 30 years I’ll get it guys I’ve actually got the correct equipment for this I have
This pitch for from now we got all right give him a read wow that that pitch mark looks really good tap it down you got a flat stick in your hand Annabelle you should be tapping that there we go it’s something for me to do
This is my job on the perfect I kind of like the flag shadow in there as a good uh feeding tool like we were talking about earlier try well like I said you got two good eyes on you what do they see definitely uphill I don’t see loads
Of right to left in there not not loads but in the hallway I think this is more important waight though isn’t it do you know what I mean o00 yeah quiet man say something what what would you do I don’t want to throw I don’t want to throw us
All off this she’s right it’s it’s just speed I think it breaks right at the end though can I just say back at the end yes can I just say Conor if you hit this and leave Annabelle with like a 5 foot part that might be quite funny I think
Overall it’s quite straight I could see he just it definitely breaks this way leave you with five feet yeah please don’t please don’t make it interesting like I’m starting this left of the hole but yeah that’s when when when Chris said obviously right to left I was like
Oh I do not yeah I’m starting at left with the hole I think uh 2/3 is going to be fairly straight like it might move 3 in left and then the rest will snap back right feel it I’m going to trust you yeah yeah try didn’t trust me so
Someone’s got to that’s why we’re here we’re left with this partt someone’s got to I’m going for the late tour pull go go it’s pretty good it’s not bad all I mean ideally I’d like to be slightly closer has anyone got a marker or am I
It’s not so official is it would you want to mark it you can do it there’s a mark you do that it’s a lovely Mark beautiful lipo yeah talk about your routine is this what you do in a tournament uh whenever the parts yeah I mean something like
This I always looking at it from the other side then you go from the bottom end as well yeah I like to see obviously where I think it’s the straight part so like right here I see it falling in the hole probably from like just there yeah
So I kind of work my read back from that I’m not like an aim point or I’m just like see it feel it go okay and then tell us with the caddies do you have to train your caddies to read greens the same way you do how does that convers
It’s very personal cuz it’s like I don’t know sometimes I’m feeling like a firm part sometimes I’m feeling a dead weight it just depends so it’s hard I find personally it’s hard for someone else to tell me the read do you know what I mean cuz they’re not feeling what I’m feeling
What about you Cole yeah I uh if I rely on JJ M too much then it’s a it’s a bad putting week I know for sure cuz I don’t know what it’s going but like she she’s absolutely right like you no one knows how you’re going to hit the putt you
Have to be able to feel that and be able to adjust per the greens right do you two know that you’re stood the man in the middle of you two was ranked the greatest caddy in the Boston area on Shante you were in the Boston area read
The what are you doing I’m not going to tell you what to do Boston bman you get in there and tell us what’s going on wait what do you mean in the Boston area you get this title you’re in the caddy greatness right here B State I want to
Know I want to know how this how this title came to be uh Dynamic pricing Dynamic pricing how do you think he’s living in New York got be a ball to live in New York I mean you do commit to it yeah do you do
You not play with the line no uh no I use the I use the tailor mid so I put a blue mark on the tailor made and then I roughly line it up R but it’s yeah it’s got to just be in the general roughly
Line up it’s got to be in the general area that’s the take of the day oh that would do general area all right there some heat on here well yeah there is she’s been biging up the claw claw and arm lock I love it yeah I love it have
You tried that yet Cole youve tried everything else no no no I haven’t I haven’t gone I haven’t gone that far CO’s got tap I’ll finish it up get the driver out that was my fault I put Char in the rough okay well done great bogy guys well done team well done I
Told you it should have been a scramble this is our practice you% left pocket Mark not stealing anything from me girl what is it take a lot to steal from someone from Liverpool TI as anything these worth is this worth a lot is that why or emal worth a lot to me
Baby you know all Liverpool surely don’t yeah oh yeah you want know the story so the silver ones you can only get for winning the junior Club Championship and they’re obviously this size and then the gold ones long time gold ones gold ones are bigger I got two of the gold ones
But they don’t work you not many use them as markers but I use them as markers I love that so the club secretary I no wonder why you’re so precious I get it now in about 1998 97 the club secretary who was group Captain military secretary came out and played
Goal for me every Tuesday night because I was a budding Young Junior in the Royal Liverpool area and we get on the first green and you might get this having the bit that you definitely will get this so you know he’s a group Captain know all this get on the first
Screen you’re not meant to be marking your golf ball this and obviously I throw that down and mark the ball and he looks at it and he’s like why are you using a club medal to mark your ball and I’m like CU I’m going to win the junior
Championship next year as well so I’ll have two so this one doesn’t matter and I won the next oh my God exactly you’re good exactly so there you go we’re standing here with the greatest team I could assemble I have the best caddy in Boston area giving me mental therapy
Through the whole thing the finest driver in golf who missed the Fairway and then flipping claw Master here who missed the tapping but whatever that’s how golf goes I didn’t hear you say anything about your performance I a great shot just perfect middle of the green he put me under pressure I col
Mara stood next in my shadow I was nervous telling me I had the wrong Club I went against middling performances were in it together exactly anyway yeah it was great tune in there you go thank you to Adidas for making this happen check everything out down in that
