Sir nick faldo my golfing hero.. only for you I would have never taken up golf in the early 80s..I got to see you at royal Birkdale on the practice days and at the comp.you were brilliant..and seve you will always be in everybody's hearts what a pair of brilliant Down to earth gentlemen with the up most respect for each other...
We miss Seve very much. I, as a countryman fellow of Seve from Santander, have to say that I am very proud that a golf legend like Nick Faldo, gets so emotional when he talks about him.
As a young poor kid I didn't play golf, but I saw Seve on the TV and thought he was someone special, just from his joy of the game and respect for others (and others respect for him)
He was an hero to me.. I am old enough to have watched his early career. I loved his energy and fearless style. He lifted British and European golf out of the mire. He gave belief were there was none, leading by example. A true legend and sadly missed.
I think Seve was probably the most liked and respected person that has ever lived. He had his flaws, but his charisma just shone like a beacon. He was my idol and in a different league to anyone else. Nick Faldo is a legend in his own right, but compared to Seve, even Nick knows he is not in the same league.
100% agree. My idol too. I got emotional creating the piece for upload. They say it about a lot of people, but there truly will never be anyone quite like Seve.
Faldo was seen as ice cold, as you say he probably felt he had to be this way. But you saw the human side in 95. Only Seve could make him feel and react this way in public!!
@@Bluearmy76 Yes - and so many who were not in his league - nowhere even near it - tried to undermine him and her rose beautifully above it - I'm thinking especially of the horrendous Mark James, (definitely the worst Ryder Cup captain ever BTW) and his horrible public attitude to Faldo in 1999.
@@ysgol3Mark James is just a jealous, bitter individual who should never have been anywhere near the Ryder Cup captaincy. His mate Torrance is another one. Jealous, because when they would be on the piss during their tour days, Faldo stayed aloof working on his game and became a multiple major champion while they remained also-rans
I suspect part of the reason Nick was so aloof was due to the miserable treatment he received at the hands of the British tabloids. Being a sensitive person one way to deal with that is to just shut out everything and just go internal.
@@TheYorkie72 Hi, sorry for the delayed reply (!), yes spot on! I particularly detest Torrance. An elderly friend of mine - a real old-style gentleman - was following Torrance in the British Senior Open a few years ago. On a par 5, Torrance hit a hybrid to just off the green. 'Good shot' said my friend. Lovely Sam turned to him and snarled 'That might be a good shot by your f****** standards but it isn't by mine'.
@slipio Two great champions who were so one track minded on winning that it often came across as aloof or arrogant. When their game and maybe a little desire had gone we saw the real people inside..I guess that's what makes a winner.
I know that Faldo´s emotions are completely sincere, but I do not like this type of cold journalists...she failed to name the year, the course, tapping Faldo´s back in a fake way to pretend she is supportive and she only wanted to steal tears in a very delicate moment just for audience.
Seve and Faldo. The two greatest European golfers of the modern era and rivals for so many years but with huge respect for each other.

Faldo... indeed a great champion 🏆 as seve also acknowledged..@19 Year old together.. didn't know
Everytime I see this just tears me to pieces ❤❤❤
2 absolute legends, thank you for the memories

Nick always looked so robotic playing, the English reserve I suppose. To see him crying at Seve's funeral was a real eye-opener for me.
Amazing video. Thank you for uploading it.
You are welcome and thank you. My little tribute to two amazing sports men.
You see - the real Nick Faldo is a deeply sensitive and emotional man, he had to hide that to become the great champion he is.

Agree mate,,,” what a moment , what a moment “ silly cow
@@Sandylaner63 Yes, what a moment to be quiet...
That woman commentator is as shallow as a kids bath tub.
The emotional range of a brick.
Seve didn't like Faldo, not many tour golfers liked Faldo, and nothing's changed
Stop lying
@@lloyd_r Ask Faldo's Ryder Cup team, they detested him, ask Sergio
