What a great production! I really miss this era from the late 70’s to the mid 90’s. Seve Ballesteros had no equal when he was in form. That was just it, Seve did not need to always be in form to win. It’s sad that he was unable to live to be a ripe old age to be able to enjoy the fruits of his labor. RIP, great man. You created an infinite amount of enjoyment for many, especially me.
Seve was the Elvis of Golf. He made golf more exciting, people scream and ran after him. Most naturally talented golfer ever. Never took a lesson. He was the most charismatic and handsome golfer ever. His smile enchanted the whole world - Europe USA Japan….
I have seen Tiger, Ernie, Faldo, Goosen, Monty etc….all play in the flesh…..yet, nothing compares the crowd and the general feeling when I saw Seve play a hole in a tournament
I saw him up close on the 2nd day of the Ryder Cup at The Belfry. 10th hole with the water. The difference from watching at home (which we did on days 1 & 3) was that you got the extraordinary atmosphere, one you could cut with a knife - the deep furrow on his brow, the steely eyes, sense of utter determination. You could actually feel it. As it happens, he went into the water on that occasion.
Great show. I practiced his bunker instructions today and it was instant success from previous no clue failure. He knew his stuff. Sad how it ended for him though, very sad. Should watch his end of life story.
I disagree with Seve on this matter. I am not interested on the best players who sell their souls (LIV golf example) I want to be inspired by human beings with high values.
