Sports lover , fitness advisor, athletics coach, Father of four , Olympian and Commonwealth Games Athlete, Cricket and AFL tragic and very poor golfer sadly!
@DickTelford@cameronmyers06 Thanks, Dick. Thatโs very kind of you. Your influence was a big part of my early years in Canberra, and I learned a lot from you. I have great memories of that era and feel fortunate to have been part of it.
Really enjoying watching Cam compete. Wishing him every success.
@AnthonyKim_Golf@X Fantastic lol ๐ Ak looking forward to seeing you in Adelaide next year. We love having you in Australia mate. You continue to be inspiration to many.
@Luke_Elvy Iโm a LIV fan being an Aussie but this isnโt really a LIV vs PGA debate.
Recreational golf is booming here.
Pro golf is awash with money yet still fragmented and fighting for attention.
The game has never been healthier. Whether professional golf is, remains an open question.
@arlowhite@JoelMBeall Hard to believe people can write this anti Liv stuff - seriously Joel Liv has been fantastic in Australia. Why the hate itโs global golf
@JeffSmithGolf ๐for a pathway forward Jeff. Iโve been to two Liv events in Australia and it was outstanding sporting experience. Your point on funding is absolutely correct- for some reason the level of vitriol is incredible.
@Luke_Elvy@Scam77 Interesting. The menโs 1500 world record is from 1998 - Hicham El Guerrouj 3.26.00 with the new spikes the closest has been Jacob Ingebrigtsen 3 26.73 in 2024
@Luke_Elvy@Scam77 Oly m/d in the 80s was built on mileage, instinct and hardness. Today itโs layered with physiology, sport science + tech. The Aust Institute of Sport was ahead of its time pioneering many of those ideas. Carbon-fibre shoes have been a game changer in running over the past decade.
