TRANSCRIPT:

"And then there's Charles.

And Charles, let me tell you, Charles is on the different-- his scoring system is unbelievable. He is, uh, he's got it from somewhere. I dunno how he's got it. But, um, he's over there. He's in the trees. He's hit the, he's hit the ball backwards. He's on the green, he's four-putted. He's in, he is got a bogey.

[chibrary notes:

four-putted - used the putter (a specific club you use near the hole) four times. considered a humiliating amount to men with money

bogey - finish a hole one stroke (hit) over par

par - number of strokes an "elite" player should normally need to complete that particular hole]

And you're like, so, Charles, hang on there a minute. Let me just backtrack a bit and count what you just did. Um, and so there he is and he's, he's, he's somehow scoring similar to me.

Uh, we, we were playing actually last week and um, we weren't allowed to be a group of four because of, cause of the speed of play. So Lando and Charles were were playing. And I was with my friend Nick. I just, I couldn't believe it cause I was, I was watching the guy, I was behind him.

I was, we were, we were watching the shots they were doing. They were zig-zagging his way down the tower. Warming up his tires, the full buggy must ran out of battery by the end of it. And, and the score, he comes back, he shouts after he's putted, you know, bogey. And so we were writing it down and I'm just like, there's just no way. The guys, the guys. So, so I was like, all right, the last 15 holes were, we're away from the clubhouse. We can join back up as a four. And uh, and funny enough, he wasn't scoring very well.

Just a bad hole, right?

Just a bad three holes mate. You should have seen the last 15."
