This video and my Scottish trip gave my dad a tear in his eye. When you grow up in South Africa in uitenhage, you don't even think of playing the Old Course. You see them play the Open there, and you read history about it. But you never for a moment have even the start of a thought that you will ever play it. Never.
Not only are there visa issue for South Africans just to get to the UK, but 300 GBP for a round for a round of golf in an expensive European country is not in the realms of possibility. Thanks to this channel and sponsors like Takomo, and the playas who support the channel, I was able to do what neither my dad nor I thought was possible. I played the Old Course at St Andrews. Luckily i also was able to reinstate my family’s nationality that were lost during the war so i could travel as a Lithuanian. Otherwise this would not have happened
This is the pinnacle - as good as playing at pebble and the town of St Andrews is a place I could live forever. The St Andrews Golf green fees differ depending on which course, by they are quite cheap in comparison to the Old Course (less than $100). I played a couple of them with my friend J5. It was an honor to be able to play at the complex. Before the round, I did look at St Andrews Old course maps, and even walked the course 4 times. But I never actually looked at hole 11 or 12. I always turned around. To my detriment.

Glad you finally to play the Old Course. Thanks for bringing us along on your journey.
That german's bro driver shot and hitting 67. Golf is truly amazing.
The 'blink of a brown eye' had me in stitches 😂, scores don't matter when you're walking on the glorious fairways of St Andrews.
😂
I avoid them like blue hairs with bull rings did the same to me. Matteo Sannovobicci 😂😂
The play post bunker hole was fantastic. That took better play and composure than the front 9 tap in eagle making golf look easy. That's why you're the Baus Matty Boom Boom. Playa in chief, indeed! Awesome stuff!!!!
Hey there we are! Loving your first shot on the first tee. Blue sweaters :) Gonna crack a beer and watch this now.
Come for the golf, stay for the sound track!!
So happy i got to watch you make it to the Old Course. Great round with just one mean bunker. That rando german with the 67 would be an interesting round to watch too. I loved seeing everyones tee shot on the final 2 holes.
What a round! Thanks for sharing! It’s always great to watch you play!
Legendary. So much fun watching you savor this bucket list experience - and play damn well in the process! Love the bridge pics ❤
What a Rockster, I was there with you in spirit. What an awesome 16 minutes video, that was a great first experince at the home of golf!!
Waited a long time for this one. Great job and thanks for sharing. Old Course is on my bucket list. You have my word if I ever get in one of those bunkers I promise to get out sideways or even backwards and not risk it. Greetings from USA
Ah this is the one I have been waiting for. Great video. Kudos to you for showing us your quad. And your topped drives. For this 13 handicap in Canada, your great mental attitude (and the gorgeous courses) is why I watch your videos. Par over the last three holes? Epic. I think the greatest compliment I can give you is you seem like you would be a great guy with which to play a round.
Congratulations. The way you played the first, an Eagle and the way you finished on the home of golf, such amazing memories to take away.
Been waiting for this one Matty Boy!! Didn't disappoint 🎉
Played there myself on a winter ticket the last three years. Fantastic place, over the moon to beat my handicap there, even if it was a measly 90 gross score. I visited a bunker on the 12th too, hard not to! Plenty of bunkers in the rough too, which just adds insult to injury! Fantastic turf to play off, even in winter. Happy days.
Wadda round Matty waddaplaya. Had you down for scratch dudey but 1.4 is amazing for 20 rounds in Scotland 🏴 it’s cold wet and very windy. Well done Matt…
Loved watching this video! Such a cool experience to witness. Great round Baus!
Matt, what a fun video. Good, real-world golf @ the home of golf. Well played and quite entertaining. Thank you.
Happy for you Matty! Nice to see your game travels so well.
Best golf content on the tube, Scotland trip has been amazing ! Could feel the good vibes from the other side of the screen !
Congratulations Matty! You played a great round at the holy grail of golf. Well done PLAYA.
Totally awesome mate. You got a nice day too!! Really pleased you got to play it finally! Am thoroughly enjoying this trip!
Bloody fantastic stuff! Well done getting there, getting in, not crumbling on such an occasion.
Fantastic series! Glad you made it to the Old Course and for the most part, stuck to your strategy.
Great video loved it. Ironically have had exactly same experience at the old course on the simulator!!!
So glad to live in the time of Golf Sidekick. Well played on the Old Course bro.
Legend. Could watch this episode and your round at Pebble Beach on a loop, for days.
That's awesome Matt, you will never forget that round of golf. What a 4 at 17 👍
What an amazing experience and thank you for sharing it with us.
that was really great to watch! way to keep your head together when the wheels came off! that could have gotten so much worse! greets from canada!
Been waiting a long time for this. Great bridge picture. Cheers Matty!
Only just started and wanted to say come on Matty, you got this. Been waiting for this round a long time. Waddaplaya
Matty, my 4.7 handicap prediction is in shambles but you’re absolutely mashing the long irons off the tee, we love to see it. Although I will say hole 12 was hilarious and all to familiar. Jahh bless you Mr. Boom Boom and Godspeed
One day I hope to be able to take my 2 boys and play the old course. Love it Mattie!!
Congrats. I had thought 1.5, but you beat it in 0.1. Can't wait for more of your videos. I think this is one place to FOMO. Wish me luck balloting in June. OTW it's New/Castle/Jubilee for me
Congrats on a great round at the Old Course. This entire trip has been fun to follow.
Great round! Thanks for the great vlogs in Scotland!
I cannot wait for April. I will be plaiyng 5 of these courses including the Old and Kingsbarns. Been anxioiusly waiting for this video.
Special round of golf around a special course. Congrats Matty.
Dude, that’s bad ass. Been waiting for this one. Congrats.
Matt you are a legend man. brown eye and blue/bullring was genius. Too funny. Great content. Very entertaining at St Andrews.
Great video. Glad you experienced the crazy greens.
Wow 160 to the whole and yo hit a PW - amazing! there's no way I'll ever be able to do that. Your iron play is far, far better than anyone I've ever played with.
Loved the opening subtitle for the starter, "in scottish ", great video , glad you enjoyed Scotland (I'm in Perth, Scotland, just up the road from St Andrews)
Amazing stuff Matty Boom Boom! Thanks so much for sharing your journey with us. And apparently, it's not just God who can hit a 1 iron!
You made it to the Old Course. How cool. Great job !
Great journey to watch, what a playa
Great round PICachu! Lithuania will be proud. I hope to play there soon. Merry Christmas!
Oh man that was awesome, glad you made this happen!
the way of the playa is consuming me - thank you Matty!
Loved it. Played the old course as a 16 year old assistant professional. Bogies 1,17 and 18 the rest just battered me! One day gonna go back, can be sure will be watching this video again and again. Went in one fairway bunker that I didn’t know was there till I fell in it 😂😂😂😂
Great start boss man on the first hole!! 💪💪
Very Impressive Matti !! It was very enjoyable watching you play .
Bloody love your attitude Bro 😎
Great round Matt. Looks absolutely fantastic to play there!!
Cool experience and well done, Matty Boomboom!
Wadda round Mattyboomboom. More I watch your channel the more I realise how ridiculous your long iron game is, couple of those 180-220 shots were salacious. Keep going big boy
Picked the right day to check in on this channel ❤
Christmas came early 🎉 thank u playa. For everything.
Really enjoyed watching your quest
Been waiting on this video. Great opening hole.
Awesome round Matty 👏
Yes! It’s here! And love the title. Breaking 75 👍🏻😁
glad you're back, playa
Matty, weather cooperated beautifully and ya shot a 3 under at the Old Course. I'd say that's a top 5 day. Way to go, Baus.
It's here! The legendary course has meet it's more legendary match. I'm super confidential this'll put your handy at 1.0. Go Mr.BoomBoom.
awesome been waiting for this one
Nice round Mattie! Tried to imagine what you were thinking.... wadda life
Been waiting on this one Matty Ice. Fantastic.
Great video Matty. That Cam Who putt was INSANE.
Loved the series can’t wait till you take on Birkdale and the other open courses
1.4 !!!! Just like I said 🎉 🎉 🎉
Winner 🏆 🏆 🍗 🍽️
GREAT STUFF MATT 👍👍
what a legend 👏👏
Awesome sauce Matty! So I seem to make similar mistakes in bunkers. After lecturing you abt resetting the pre shot routine. Yeesh 12 on a part 3. I hang my head in shame.
YOU MADE IT!!!! WELL DONE SIR!!!
Good round mattiboomboom, I really enjoyed watching you play it.
Superb golfing, Matt! Whaddaplaya
Damn bro. Good shizz!!! Fun to watch 🤘🏼
Been loving this adventure through Scotland and looking forward to this round at the old course. To get an eagle on this round, is absolutely fanstic.
Congrats on the great score there!
Well done Matt!
Splendid!
I love the birdie tune!
Well played Bro - glad you enjoyed it despite the one bad hole spoiling an otherwise exemplary round!
I can’t believe they let you film it. WaddaLegend!
Actually at st Andrews and much of Scotland no one gives a flying scheisse about much. Except like muirfield and Royal Aberdeen. Plus St Andrews is actually a public park or something so they really can’t tell you not to. It’s amazing
My Niece when to school there at St Andrews(from the USA) and I was supposed to play there with my Brother but Covid killed it. Great to see how it plays. Thanks for the Video
My initial prediction of 0.7 looks like it has a great shot of coming true! great round playa
Great play! congrats...1.2 😀
WHAT A ROUND FROM THE P.I.C. great video Matty BoomBoom
Congratulations Matty! What an honour to play there
Old course off the black tees. The slope must be heavy there so handicap index must increase. Never fancied a 1 iron, i play a 2 iron but with old school loft (19°) fits my gaps though. You played well in the main, although that bunker so close to the wall with a pw you was asking for trouble and you got it. Enjoyed your vlog thanks for posting
What a cool series. Very jelly.
Mann Matt what an awesome round and you beasted it. 💪🏻😎🤘🏻
Some tour mate. I live here & haven't played many of these gems.
Bit out my budget, well played!
Heartbreaking watching that bunker shot. I was getting flashbacks! Glad it only took two more to get out
Wadda round! I love it when the birdie music plays on the 1st hole. My latest guess is now 1.8.
Outstanding putting. That 6i is so reliable for you. Also, one of your better soundtracks. Be well!
Finally bro. Can't wait to watch
Love it bro, Augusta next!
Excellent playa!
this made me so happy 😁
