27:30 Rose’s wedge shot from the rough on the 36th, with everything on the line, was AWESOME. One of the great pressure shots of recent memory.
Great job releasing the full round, it's something too many golf tournaments don't do. Much appreciated 👍
Gus Lascola My trip is still intact but it might not my not my not my trip but my back so late babe they took that trip
That's okay man. Our network are going bankrupt within a mouth anyway because no one is willing to pay for our streaming services. So, no need to thanks us.
Very nice highlights reel. Thank you so much for posting!
GOLF, the most humbling game there is! So brutal and yet so rewarding!
VERY well edited round of golf. Love this. wish all tournaments were like this!
On the 18th green (36th hole) Ruffels left "To Win The Championship" approach putt 3 feet short. The announcer he said "that's not done yet is it? She said "I don't think so" ..."There's no way that would be conceded"...other announcer she said "No way"... Then suddenly "Oh it is she does give it to her"..."WOW! that was quite the sportsman move." He said "You wouldn't have given her that?" She said "I don't know I doubt it."
On The next hole the 37th green Zhang's putt went by the hole by the same distance - about 3 feet and Ruffels remained silent and made Zhang putt it!
So now we see what happens in match play - It always comes back to bite you... on the 38th hole now Ruffels has a 3 footer to extend the match and guess what ... Zhang remembering... I'm sure... that she had to putt that 3 footer on the previous hole ... REMAINED SILENT...you saw the video ...the rest is history ... Congratulation Rose Zhang... Now both their names appear on the USGA Woman's Amateur Trophy.
Announcers girl lost. Very one sided commentary. Ryder Cup like.
I watched this match.....the announcers were all in for Ruffels and yet, THE BETTER PLAYER WON! Zhang gave Ruffels a sweet deal in regulations allowing her to pick up on a difficult 4' putt. So it went to sudden death, the best player won! and the announcers were clearly not happy!!!
Commentators not able to control their emotions should not be doing their jobs. Go seek other employment. Their job is to report facts, like it or not. To me, Ruffels is the better player all round but things didn't go her way, that's all. U win some, u lose some. Even great player like Lydia Ko has her bad days.
Zhang's short games are just stunning... She's going to be a big name in this game...
Rose such a grinder with absolute calm and sportsmanship. Hard work and time put in. When others took a little time out Rose just kept practicing and this is the result. Congrats Rose on the win you deserve.
What a match.
What a match.
Great match well played both girls a pleasure to watch talent like that 👏
Rose’s wedge shot from the rough on the 36th was AWESOME. One of the great pressure shots of recent memory.
Man, if we could only watch golf like this for real! Thanks
I’m glad to be able to comment, that was the best live golf match I’ve seen in years. Every phase of the game, astonishing given the stakes. I actually teared up after many shots because as life long hacker, I know how hard those shots were. The Gold Channel did very well, way better than ESPN. I wanted BOTH girls to win. A 3 peat vs a 17 yr old. Doesn’t get better than that. Tip of my cap to Ms. Zhang.
Can I get you a box of tissues Mark?
Really wish all tours had more match play events!
Match play is just so much less punishing for mistakes, I don't think it's a very good competitive format.
That 3rd shot wedge to within a foot after a ton of trouble on the 36th hole is one of the great clutch shots I’ve ever seen.
What a match ! Zhang’s short game is awesome!
Rose Zhang went blow for blow pound for pound... such a beast!.. she definitely has a super bright future ahead of her in the NCAA & LPGA!!!
Nice prediction 😊
Both players showed very good sportsmanship. Great win Rose.
What a wonderful match.
Great golf.
Great sportswomanship.💪👍

What a match!
hey la verdad excelente video lo disfrute ansioso de el proximo grabación me despido les envio besis muchas gracias
Zhangs wedge game is crazy😳🔥
Zhangs wedge game is crazy😳🔥
She's got a more shallow iron swing than most players, which might give her a larger window to make good contact. I might even try to swing a bit less steep after seeing that.
@@love.flower.chainsaw I like how she straighten her right legs on swing. I usually bend little bit
Great golf and match
I have watched this match a few times. The only real problem here is the unfortunate, noticeable, biased commentary by the commentators, on behalf of Gabriela. At least the girls did not have to hear all of this during the match. Well done ladies! Congratulations Zhang!
I was about to comment the same thing when I read your comment... totally biased!
I thought the same thing. If anything, I thought they would be biased to Rose who is the American and 9th in the world ranking. And that comment about hitting the draw to gain more yardage...
THEY WERE HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@plowe7981 it's NBC .....they hate anything "American."
it’s cuz they rather root for the non american white person than the American asian. if u think any other reason than u might be slow
Well played golf, enjoyed it!
Ruffels hits it 240 in the air every time. Incredible consistency.
did you mean carry? yep very consistent. but both of their distance about same
Mario Kang “in the air” and “carry” are the same thing
@@PoorGamer13 thats why i asked, did you mean carry?
Mario Kang yes
Rose's approaching shots were awesome. It gave her big advantage in putting. Big congrtas!
Had no idea Zhang was 17 until the announcer said it when she won. Wow! She's got a bright future ahead of her, same with Gruffels.
Gruffels!!! LOL
@@3rdgroove Ruffels, I mean Ruffels! xD
The best comment. Both have great future ahead, Gabi will win soon while Zhang will win more frequently after her graduation & full-time on course. I don't blame Zhang for pursuing her academics as that's her dream of finishing with a degree. In fact, I salute her - knowledge over wealth.
Is it just me or was the female commenter give much higher praise to other girl.
If you already know who I am referring to without saying who she was praising, point proven
27:33 wow 🤩 What a shot!!!
To say that the LGPA continues to have bright future is the largest of understatements. Zhang, for all of 17 is going to be a powehouse.
Lol

@@kenkun7541 lol
We shall see. Heard a lot of so called "predictions " about players that never came to fruition. She is awfully good.
Thank you.i
buenas la verdad imprecionante video lo disfrute necesito el nuevo material me retiro les mando besitos gracias
Wow what a match!
nice shot. ♡
What a showcase for ladies golf 🙌🙌🐬. Nothing to choose between Gabi (who only took up the game recently) and Rose, but the future is secure.
Wow what a match and to bad to lose that way but still great match ! Future star there 👍👍
Nice video very nice. Sawadee 🤠
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the 4 ft concession by Zhang that kept the match tied, and 2 holes later Ruffels refused to concede an identical putt. Well karma happened on that last hole.
I don’t concede even a 2 footer if it’s a downhill putt. Conceding a 4 footer is a mistake and talking about karma about not conceding a putt in such a competitive match is just plain absurd.
@@jacobelx5841well put
Wow!!
They make golf seem so easy.
buenas la verdad re lindo video me gusto espero el proximo grabación me retiro les dejo kisses gracias
These young women are getting a life's experience...playing a golf course steeped in legend...
Heart breaking loss but both have big futures in the game.
Watching Rose's game is absolute pleasure. She's so calm and meticulous.
2 champs, what a match...
These ladies sure find the fairway often. You love to see it.
Rose Zhang has really a good attitude .. she was so so generous on giving gimme to her opponent on that putt ...Rose deserves to win this time .. both players will be top players of the future
Zhang give her opponent a break two holes back, her generosity paid back with good
Congrats to Rose and condolences for Gabby, it is sad to lose in that fashion
@@howiedahlen1577 it was hard not rooting for both of these gals... they will both make great additions to the LPGA when they decide to turn pro.
Wow wow wow
Statistically rose is the best player in history at this stage of her career. Includes men too
Calm down
Thing I like about watch these girls play is there accuracy is great but you can see the ball flights.
“This is such a clever shot, drawing it in from right to left to get a little extra distance, not often you see that?” Uhhhhh what?! Not often you see that....
Dude I literally said the exact same like what?
I think her normal shot is a fade, so he was saying it was smart for her to use a shorter club but draw it to get more distance out of it and make it work
Well done Zhang , bad luck gabby👍🏌️♀️⛳️
should kept the flag in. Zhang is next LPGA #1.
Rose has nerves of Steel and and it was nice of her to give Gabriela that long gimme.
Woooow. Never know it's that big back there.
1:41 cruel I
32:34 cruel II
Good thing you don't have to win by 2, they might still be playing.
let's go Rose!
Zhang is from IRVINE AND I AM FROM IRVINE LETS GOOO
Bad luck Ruffels! 🇦🇺 Great golf from both of you!
Even though gabi lost she has a bright future ahead of her excellent player 👏
You really think so? How did you come up with that? Her competitor is only 17 and already has a win against her and Still growing into her big body
@@vayboualy377 um do you have eyes? If you say she isn't good then idk what you're watching. She lost because she missed an unlucky putt at the end
Gavin Cifuentes I read it wrong because you had a run on sentence with a missing punctuation. I thought you meant she had a bright future ahead of her playing partner.
@@vayboualy377 oh sorry didn't know this was a english exam. No problem
Gavin Cifuentes
No problem. That was why I misread it. And btw, it’s “*an English exam”
The better golfer won. I would’ve had a heart attack by then playing two rounds. These young women are machines.
Rose gamed her by giving the putt on 36th hole...great match
Zhang is a wedge expert, wow
We just watched it on FOX Sports.... probably the best match this year. beautiful course too..... From what university these ladies golfers came from?
The Golf Outlet 88 , Ruffles is on the USC team. Zhang is only 17 and I don’t know if she has declared or not,
@@MarkSmith-js2pu 17? teens grow up so fast now.... and they played like pros....
Pedeshtrian thanks man
Well that was rough to watch.
Well that was rough to watch.
Tight match. Someone had to make a mistake sooner or later. That's golf.
Cringing at the commentary. Sounds like they’ve never played golf, and they seem to hate zhang.
Way too many commercials...
I'd rather watch Gabi than the tour men. One of the best swings in golf
She has a very good swing, repeatable. I wonder though that she drops her posture in the backswing and then slightly stands up in downswing. Well it works for sure!
@@peterhammer6915 Many players do that. It's not a fault.
@@3rdgroove nope. Its definitely better to keep posture or even get lower in downswing, not the other way around
@@peterhammer6915 Why is it better? I'm just saying that many good players do one or the other.
Some keep a straight back - they keep the head at the same height. Some flex their spine on the back swing - they go down and slightly forward with their heads.
I prefer the latter as it is more dynamic and creates more speed. But both ways can produce excellent golf.
@@3rdgroove you can definitely create more speed when using the ground properly. I always like to watch Rory swing. He keeps his spine tilt in the backswing and goes really down in the downswing to create more pressure. All long hitting and top men have one thing in common. They all create more tilt in the first part of the downswing, their heads drop significantly in lower. But I really like the swing of Ruffels, it looks to be working well and it looks very repeatable. Was just wondering why she drops down so much and starts the downswing by "standing up" slightly.
Is this a playoff or they started the day together because they were close in score?
it's a match play tournament, and these two were in the final match
@@1sebschab1 Thank You.
Rose Zhang , congratulations
The Cady for Zhang, is too much told her
what to do , let her to golf her ways, good for
her future at pro, LPGA without someone
babysitting her. 👍🏌️♂️💖 LA
It's her dad and she is just 17. But I agree. This will probably change when she gets to college.
Benny Frank the 3rd IF she goes to college; her game is ready for the LPGA right now....start making bank you can always go back to college and get a degree, or do the one and done thing, that would be my advice to her if I were her agent
@@10scoach33 Hard to tell from the outside but I think that neither her game nor her personality is ready to be a world-beater on the LPGA. And why should she? She should enjoy HS and college life, a free education and getting better at golf!
Benny Frank the 3rd yeah and what happens if she injures herself in a year and won’t be able to play, at least she’ll hav income coming in from sponsorship deals, if she gets hurt playing college golf she’s all done she gets nothing!!!!!!
LPGA has been non-existent for the last 3-4 years. I can't remember the last major shown on TV. I was at the US Open 2016 in Sahalee, but LPGA seems to has faded from any TV coverage! WTF?
I love Ruffels!
Mightve gotten that putt conceded but after that unsportsmanlike 37th hole Rose was like putt it u Aussie b...I'll tell ya where this comes from...in amateur golf u simply dont want to win a great match bc ur opponent lips out a short putt hence y Rose gave her that missable high pressure short putt on the 36th showing true class only to get slapped in the face on the 37th...now in the pros where its a pure money game f it they dont concede shit unless its ryder or presidents where theres no money involved
Does Gabriela have ridges?
You gotta smile more Rose. You are not a pro yet. Enjoy while you can...
13:17 Ruffels walking during Rose's putter backswing is crazy
The lady commentator seems to be biased slightly
I heard it was a snooze fest out there. 30 min.. how many shots they show? 12 ?
Golf: easy to play,powerful to master
Rose gave her the putt at 36th and didn't get the 'give' back on about the same length of putt the next hole. So.. no more gimme last hole lol.
PlanB it’s called Match Play, I didn’t like it either, but I think Zhang her right there
She is so amusing.
Do they tee off from the white tees? The LPGA is like the blue tee's?
Rose Zhang rips. She’s cute and she is amazing wedge player wow.
Yes I like her wedge swing. very incredible
Great job Zhang!
USA USA USA

USA USA USA!
Get in the hole!
From a fellow Aussie, go RUFFLES
Anyone else rage when Gabriela missed that putt? I broke my tv and shattered my pelvis.
She's only seventeen...
Hmmm the mind games got to Ruffels. She should have conceded that putt. Maybe she felt bad for not and subconsciously missed the last putt.
I certainly buy into the value of being able to hit my clubs a reasonable distance. fortunately after playing this game at a reasonable level for 35 years, I have managed to retain decent speed and length throughout my bag. However, the last few videos I have seen from you are completely fixated on the fact that Savannah can hit a 7 iron 180 yards. There is NO value whatsoever in being able to hit a 7 iron 180 yards with jacked lofts and a spin rate that is too low to get control. As soon as I see anyone testing a 7 iron with less than around 5500 - 6000RPM spin, I question the relevance of being able to hit a 7 iron that far. I noticed your spin on the 180y 7i was just over 5000RPM. Personally I like to see my 7 iron spin closer to 6500RPM and even 7000 and my distance in and around 170 yards at 90 - 93mph clubhead speed.
Fixation on being able to hit it that long without showing ALL the relevant data is worthless especially when the rest of the information you give about the swing and your approach is so very very good.
Of all these televised shots, I can't recall a putt made from a substantial length by either player.
rosey posey
Ruffles missed about six of those putts during the match
Rose is going to have to get her father out of the pictures sooner or later but I hope she doesn't make a mistake getting these damn swing coaches that screw up their whole future
Way better than the WNBA 😜
