hurlston hall junior open putting competition winner with the trophy behind me to show um it's actually

yeah i've just seen it wait wait one sec everybody let me just get it for Ben. One sec. Wow. Oh, thank you. Wow, what an absolute great focus. Have a little look at that. So that was, well, first of all, I'm with Ben. Hi, Ben. Hey, guys. Happy Friday. Ben is the third tallest guy in the northwest of England. I am. So well done for that.

Junior Open World.

Yeah, so this was, yeah, but there's a caveat to this.

This, as it says, was 2002.

And you know what?

It would actually be almost 24 years, not days, 24 years ago to the day because I remember quite vividly, it'd been on the May bank holiday, and it was a junior open at Hurleston Hall, a golf course in Olmsk, an inland golf course, but not far from the South Porton-Ainsdales, the Burtdales, the hillsides, etc. And I was 11 years old, and there was an 18-hole junior open. I think there was also a nine-hole 18 hole junior open I think there's also nine

hole and then at the end there's a little putting competition and I think I played the nine

hole comp I was only small 11 years old and I rocked up to the putting competition and I remember

it like it was yesterday I had um what is a padding competition well it's what it says in the tin it was

a nine holes on the putting green a little scorecard and you see how many it takes you? It was with the little kids. And I don't know why I remember this so vividly. I got three, three puts, nice. Did you? Three, two puts, but three one puts. Wow. So I shot a level part 18 from memory serves me correct. now it 24 years ago there might be a little bit of um

in factual and it might be a bit wrong in some of that because it was a long long time ago

but that trophy is still here to this day then keep the scorecard no I wish I did I would have been

good so next time you give me a bit of cockiness a little bit of attitude a little bit of like

oh I beat you in a match just next time you give me a bit of cockiness, a little bit of attitude, a little bit of like, I'll beat you in a match.

Just remember who you are talking to. I will. And thank you for sharing. I mean, I don't have one. I don't have a trophy to show just yet. I was thinking, I'm thinking this on the weekend. Just like, God, it's hard to win golf in isn't it? Yes, it is very hard.

Hard to win golf, win some sort of...

You'll never win golf, you'll never beat golf.

You'll never win golf.

Like, people will be happy to know.

I don't think I've spoke about this yet, but I did not shoot 98.
