Welcome back to the Haggerdale Golf Podcast. It's just being Lou tonight, and we've got three questions based around some interesting topics, which should get you all thinking. Welcome, Lou. Nice to have you back from your little jaun's away. Yeah, question one is, where's the Greggie? I miss him. I haven't seen him in a while, and I'm going, I'm having the heby-jeeby jitters right now with no Gregi and my wife.

Yeah, yeah, it'll get back to normal soon. There's a lot of busyness going on at the moment.

Unfortunately. Yeah. So first question, and I saw you tweet about this actually. I think you were being serious.

But so there's rumors is there that the match play,

that the tall championships might include some more match play at the end of it.

Is that what this is built around?

Because I think I saw you post some tweet saying that you want everyone to do

100 rounds over a million years or what.

Yeah.

Explain to me what, what this is about and what you were saying reference

if there should be match play at the tour championships or not yeah there was um a press conference

with uh the new pGA tour commissioner brian rolap and one of the things that he talked about

was potentially introducing match play somehow in the playoffs.

No real details yet, but kind of throwing it out there. And there's some people that like that

and they're excited by match play. I am not one of those people. I wouldn't want match play to

decide the tour championship at the end of the season.

There's just too much golf has way too much variance in it, way too much up and down.

And there's, I would just wouldn't want matchplay, 18 holes of match play one-on-one to decide something, especially when, you know, you can

have players, you know, you just have the luck of the draw, and you go out there and you shoot 73,

and your opponent shoots 74, and you move on, and then there's another match where somebody

shoots 66, and the other person shoots shoots 67 and the 67 goes home.

And that can definitely happen in matchplay.
