| 0:00.0 | I don't think I've ever been disqualified from a competition that I can remember. Lou, have you ever been disqualified from a competition? Yes, I was disqualified from a competition. Really? Yes, I was disqualified. Quickly, like 30 seconds? Why? What do you do? Just real quick. I ran out of golf balls. R-I-B, ran out of balls. I ran out of golf balls. I started with three in the bag. Oh, that's optimisticly started the three. Yeah, I mistakenly started with three in the bag. That's optimism right there. Yeah. With three balls in the bag. Yeah, they used to do that at St. Melian. When the event was at St. Melian on the deep, on the European tour, |
| 0:41.2 | it's a really tight course down here. He had the event there. And you would often have someone who's run out of balls in the third comments, meaning I'm 10 over and I'm out of it. Yeah, |
