Liv Golf Miami Playoffs - Cameron Smith VS Phil Mickelson #golf #livgolf #livgolfmiami

I sat down. Get in my hole tricky. They sometimes just make a little turn without the signal. Yeah, Bermuda Greens. There's grain in them. Fresh Bermuda Greens too. Yeah, Tiff Eagles, the grass. So that's beautiful. Statements have been sent early on from the champion golfer of the year, Cam Smith. He's one up against Phil Mickelson, what promises to be another lively press conference after play ends today. Yeah, and you can tune into that on our YouTube channel here website or also some of our social media outlets. It's a it was fun yesterday. Probably going to be just as much fun today. No one settles down as well. And place for right handers and left handers. Well, this is one hole. If he blocks it ever so slightly, he's wet. Final turn. He's got very, very safe. Stand up. Yes, just OK. No, it's not sitting down. It's one of those lies that club could turn over water on the left side. It's a tough layup. Just carried the water. It's almost certainly going to come out knuckly out of that stuff. Knuckly, it's not a word. It is now not going for the green, just trying to lay it up to a good yard. It just find the fairway. Again, but it's sitting up winds off different wind from the practice rounds. About 80 yards. Good life. Can't get anything on it from that Bermuda. There's a little reverse tear in the green. Chances aren't good. This one 4045 feet up a big slope. Lots of break on it. There's most his turn. To go, Cam Smith to win the 10th. Oh well, that was unexpected. OK, escapes with a half huge advantage for him because it takes so long to get a yardage to the hole from where he hit some of his drives. This looks pretty good. 3 AM. That's dedication. Here's your man. He was posing. They are going to be hard to read. This is it doesn't get much easier than this. In terms of it's uphill. Not much in it. Well, Phil could perhaps should have been two down after two, and they're all square after three against the champion golfer of the year. Cam Smith same club as the last hole. They'd love the same result. Third shot with an 8 iron into par five. How often do you see that? Admittedly, they were in the rough, not great lies off their tee shots, but this is another great looking one. Right over the flag. This could jump on him, but at least it's into the wind. Oh, he cut the legs under that one. Fine shot from that lie. For Phil, he's got fans all over the world. This man. How's that funny finish got a chance? Take a look at Phil Mickelson. The galleries that follow him everywhere and let out a mighty role. It should Sunday and then on the back 9, he he made putsy didn't even look at. Before we all went on all backstage and you know they were briefed. They were briefed. Is it you told him let your hair down? Have some fun with it and they surely did. Finally, someone someone actually listens to me, not you guys. It surprises me too pretty laid back guys. A little better lines and fills. Doesn't get on the other side of the Ridge. They can't decide who's away. Tossing for it. Just never turned. Cam to win the whole for punch. Yeah, but he doesn't want to do here is exactly what Arlo did do by talking Sarah into being his sweetheart over club. Massively overclocked. I think there's a boxing analogy there somewhere as well. Where'd that end up, Don? I I I I lost it. For Smith with a pitching which. He's mighty good. These shots. Dart. Well, the advanced billing for this match was that it was going to be a short game. Clinic line to delay that for as long as possible. Anyway, what's Phil got here? Got the best line I've ever seen in Bermuda. Yeah, no, he's not for that one. He's actually disappointed he didn't make it. What a horrible first day. That'll be for Sarah. Just a little trap shot here. You can see how far back he has that in his stances. Feet really close together. Holds the club face square, just pops it out. Oh, you're kidding, he can't believe it. Good pin for a lefty. And it looks good once again. Just a touch long. Oh, this is this is very poor off to the right. Oh wow. I had the right club. It just hit the wrong shot. Just on the green. It's turning in and just decided to turn left at the end. Sorry, relatively quick. You know, going down the grain there. That light green. Hangs it out there. It doesn't come back. I think I know why he's walking slowly everything so right now he is just relishing this. Solid swing there. Just over the bunker and that's in Mickelson territory right there. It's headed just left of the green. Just left of the green isn't good. If you hit it far enough, it'll be alright. Slight advantage to Mickelson. I think they'll both make three, but one of them could chip this. One of these in. There's the first three or two. That up and little stubby chip shot. Just slightly. Love the way he stares at the hole. That last look he stares for about three seconds. The most convincing follow through. He's fled this out left. His shot through me because he hit it so perfect. I don't know why that. I I was lucky enough to be there as well and talking to Gil about it. It was a beautiful golf course. Amazing to be part of the Olympics and a part of a women's and men's golf course like that. But yeah, it's under weeds now. It's not even a golf course anymore. Fly just to square those shoulders up. This goes all three matches within this head to head competition will be all square. And we'll see who comes out on top back to you guys in the booth. Troy guys, thank you very much indeed. For getting his caught up. With everything, Phil Mickelson has nine holes to play. He has a one hole lead over Captain Smith. Fabulous shot there. Yes, he can find shots there. He started exactly where he wanted when it doesn't turn as much as they thought. But this guy is laser focused, even though there's music and crowd all around him. Right to left. It should be. No, he's up early out of it. Level on the golf courses of this caliber. Yeah, real issue cover the 15th. Oh my goodness. Put it on the way back. Is that it? Elevated just before pitch to within sort of 5 or 6 feet here. Phil now with his third of the first. Beautiful Nicholson flop. Do you have an advantage over the team that you face tomorrow? Who's had a buy into the semifinals? Well, I think it helps us. Phil knocks that one in. So no real answer for you there, Arlen. Yeah, no, we're basically we don't know now. We'll check with our weatherman Kevin Phil all square with 7 to play for the. Nicholson with driver. Some Saint Augustine over there. That one is tough, so he might be playing to the middle of the green. This is a tough pin 7 iron. It certainly is headed to the middle of the green drifting back in slightly. Front right section. No, look at that. Just advance it that far. Jerry drove from Orlando. Badly, and I still had jet lag. Look at this, look at this. Smith as we are doing now, this match matters. I think the most of the ones on the course. Well, they're all on the course, aren't they? With this club. No, it's left. I think it's going to be left rough. Yeah, that's it's time. The wind is blowing off the water there off the right. Oh goodness, wow, what a brave shot. That's going to be perfect, I think. It sure is. Tight line, probably most famously in the 91 Ryder Cup as we watch Phil second and third. In the singles on Sunday, Colin Montgomery came back from five down with five to play to half with Mark Calcavacchia. It's gotta knock this in tight. Most catches the whole twice. Yeah, forwards and backwards. Completely around the hall. Well done. Be enough to make it through to the semifinals of the disappointment. They're writ large over Harold Vardis face. Nicholson's tee shot away. Cam Smith already played on the fringe of the green. This match all square. The other two matches look like they're almost assuredly going to be one point each side. This point will decide. He's a little bit done in the performance open the club face a little bit. Oh I. It just was an awkward enough fly to where he tried to play something in between the flop and it. Phil Mickelson and they are all square to the things that I find really important in golf courses. And it's on site in the hotel. Yes, that's. Yes, I think so. Oh, this is a great tee shot, right? Yeah, and it's long. Cam at 5 Dom. Yeah, 142 yards. Mark Leishman's joined him on the side of the fairway here. And this is well left of the pin. Oh, it's bunker. Wow, big mistake. Leishman has already registered a points. No, there's an opening here with Cam in the bunker. He was shaking his head. Couldn't be a difficult bunker shot, but this is a touch right? Should hang on. That's good. That's what he said earlier as an interview. That was pretty saucy from Ian Poulter. The four races, the crushes, the fireballs and stinger await. I don't think any will be picking the Majestics now as we check back in on Cam and this match now will decide it because high Flyers Beesburger and Tringali have closed out punch team. One point each. All comes down to these two. Well, that's what you would expect from Cam Smith is a simple bunker shot. On the T at 6. Cam's already found the fairway in a good spot. Oh, and that's right down the middle too. It's no daylight in this match. It's so hard to call Dom, isn't it? There's a jet Morgan and Laurie cancer all square with four to play. Talk lead cleats by one to nothing, but the cliques are only one up in the foursomes with four to play his camp. Maybe a little long on a couple of occasions, but dead online. Choking down on it just a little. It's finality to this format. Neither of these guys have made any parts of this length. Go hard, right? Swing there. Miami. Oh boy. He's just chipping out sideways. Let's quickly send it down to Suan with the victorious smash team. So I don't think we'll get a pick, but we'll see what happens. Alright, well, congratulations guys. Have a great celebration, thanks. Thanks to our smash will not get a pick, of course. Yeah, technically they could, but it's highly unlikely. Advantage cam Smith so difficult. This looks pretty good. Unless you're Mickelson. He makes it look so easy. The one up with want to play. I was standing at the back of the green with his high flyers, teammates and their caddies. It is have to have a winner. I will play extra holes if they are necessary. One is just fine. Smoked it. Oh, but it stays in that rough. It's pretty high, it's right. It's gonna leave himself another long bunker shot. Really difficult to get that one online. That is his kind of driving iron point. They put a good swing on it too. Is it a little right? Go a bit too much stuff on it. Wind is howling now. Mickelson is going to give him the perfect line. Cameron Smith did not step in there. Phil Mickelson dug deeper Doral. The cam Smith prevails the team punch. To the semifinals. Got your team through to the next round also. Yeah, that was a. That was a bit of a brutal one today. I felt I felt as though I did everything I needed to do. Ball striking wise out there today and my partner just wasn't behaving. It's nice to see that one go right in the guts there, but still some work to do overnight, I think. Explain, I mean you want to make the championship this year. What was the tension coming down those last couple of holes? I mean, it's obviously I think it's a little bit different when you've got a couple of teammates hanging on to you wanting you to win as well. Just kind of ups the ante a little bit. And, you know, they're riding on your shoulders, you know, trying to trying to get you through. Who do you want tomorrow, DJ? I'll take anyone tomorrow. I feel as though I'm playing some really good golf at the moment. Obviously, I didn't have my best couple of weeks over overseas, but did some work last week and the game is feeling really good again. Well, congratulations. Good luck the rest of the week. Thank you.
