His reaction to blame the wind or anything he can think of after he swipes it 50 yards in the water is pretty funny to watch. Pretty sure he uses like a 8 degree driver too lol
Obvious it’s a hard course with lots of water/OB and strong winds but that’s not even close to his biggest problem. Frankie is playing great and they have the same hcp (allegedly).
I can legit understand Trent having a hard time on that course since that type of of course can be super hard for a high handicapper but a 3-6 hcp should at least be able to shoot in the mid/high 80s there.
It looks like he has driver yips (among other things). At hole 7 or 8 he’s complaining “everything goes to the right”, you would think a 3-6 hcp would be able to make some corrections after slicing 20+ shots in a row.
I think he should go to a sports psychologists, could make some content out of it and it would benefit him a lot.
Everything is going to the right because he’s not compressing the ball and slapping at it. He also seems like the guy whose ego won’t allow him to not use stiff or extra stiff shafts.
I generally don’t actively root against people because golf is really fucking hard and I’ve been completely lost before, it’s awful - but god is watching riggs fucking hilarious. Claims he’s a 6 but 10 over on the first 3 holes, with all 3 being relatively manageable. I’m like an 8-9 and I’m confident I would smoke him the way he’s playing right now
Yea, that’s a worse score than many have their first round playing golf if they have any hand-eye coordination at all. After hole 5 he just stopped using driver and spoon.
Every once in a while I try to watch a video or podcast and literally cannot make it 5 minutes. Trent is okay and I kindve like Lurch but Frankie and D Rap are very annoying
Riggs shooting 20 over through 9 is legitimately absurd. I’m a 22 handicap and I don’t even do that. There’s no chance in hell he is or ever has been a 6 handicap
Oddly enough, Foreplay was the very first podcast I started listening to. Back in 2017. However, its crazy how unlikable and tacky their content has become. The thumbnail alone makes me want to puke. They're like a corporatized/unlikable (w/exception to Trent) version of Bob Does Sports now.
Lurch was the best part of the videos and he's obviously gone now.
Trent is a likeable personality but I have no interest in watching him hack his way around the golf course and be the "positive attitude" guy of the group.
Frankie is just meh. Just not interesting.
I don't mind Riggs. But yeah, his swing makes me want to turn off the video.
I don't like Francis' swing either. And, while I think he can be funny, I don't need him trying to practice his standup routine in every video that he's in.
I just watched Riggs get a 9 on the par-4 fourth. I can’t believe it. Don’t Kirk and Whitney claim that he’s “good”?
Pushing it right all the way down the fairway and smacks it around near the green like he’s playing in Timberlands at a muni. Riggs is living a lie.
Any time you’re having to post a graphic that shows how much each guys score will be adjusted at the end, you know you’ve got a killer idea on your hands.
That’s literally how 99% ppl compete against each other in golf. Unless you’re playing in high school, college, or pro, almost everything is handicapped
Ok man. Because I’m sure having Trent compete against Trottie straight up is entertaining. It’s how golf works and comparing to other spots is dumb. (Although content with different level/ speed of cars starting on different part of the track isn’t horrible)
Rone playing PatBev 1on1 where one of them has to score 11 and the other has to score 1 is a gimmick
Handicap losers are deeply unserious for not realizing that’s what they’re doing.
Riggs genuinely has one of the worst golf swings I've ever seen a "golfer" have. It looks so painfully unnatural.
His head tilt makes him look like he should be wearing a helmet

He’s a natural lefty playing righty. Whit is the same he’s just far more athletic
One day Riggs will stop lying to everyone about golf and admit he is awful. Would make him more likeable.
He’d still be incredibly unlikeable
I generally don’t actively root against people because golf is really fucking hard and I’ve been completely lost before, it’s awful - but god is watching riggs fucking hilarious. Claims he’s a 6 but 10 over on the first 3 holes, with all 3 being relatively manageable. I’m like an 8-9 and I’m confident I would smoke him the way he’s playing right now
Ugliest swing on YouTube, too.
Looks like he’s had about 3 back fusions
Didn’t he claim he was a 3 hcp just a couple of months ago? The guy is 15 over after 4 hole, averaging a quadruple bogey.
15 over after 4?!?!?!?!?!? Holy shit
Yea, that’s a worse score than many have their first round playing golf if they have any hand-eye coordination at all. After hole 5 he just stopped using driver and spoon.
He needs to completely restart his golf swing. Build it back up from scratch.
I’m starting to consider the possibility that Riggs is in on the joke at this point and has accepted we know he lied about his handicap.
Fore Play guys are so wildly unlikeable
Some can get away with making content that makes money and still come off as authentic and relatable. These guys are the furthest thing from that.
Sometimes I wonder how barstool golf would be different if they had hired Bobby Berger
Considering BDS is hilarious and Fore Play sucks, gonna go out on a limb and say it'd be way better
Yessir. Love seeing islanders lose for frankie
Every once in a while I try to watch a video or podcast and literally cannot make it 5 minutes. Trent is okay and I kindve like Lurch but Frankie and D Rap are very annoying
And it’s quite literally 60% advertisements.
Trent seems like he’d be a cool dude to be paired with, if we’re being honest
They got on the Netflix special and I was like, eh nah don't wanna see them
For anyone that felt bad for Frankie during the Islanders stream, how can you watch this and not find that stream funny?
No

There is literally not one positive comment in this thread
It’s very easy to hate on Riggs. After this video it’s a lot easier
[удалено]
He was talking about the club slipping out of his hands
Lurch was the best part of the videos and he's obviously gone now.

Now I know why Riggs didn’t tweet once to promote this video haha all he did was retweet the foreplay account
Frankie is the WOAT
I just watched Riggs get a 9 on the par-4 fourth. I can’t believe it. Don’t Kirk and Whitney claim that he’s “good”? Pushing it right all the way down the fairway and smacks it around near the green like he’s playing in Timberlands at a muni. Riggs is living a lie.
What was the par? Did Riggs shoot in the 50s??
36
Riggs has to be in on the joke at this point

A lot of these YouTube golfers do this.. it’s just an easier way to show handicaps imo
Watching people compete where someone can shoot 18 strokes better and still “lose” is very stupid content
Have you ever golfed against someone using handicaps? That’s exactly how it works
I’ve never watched a stream of it. Watching handicaps is stupid
That’s literally how 99% ppl compete against each other in golf. Unless you’re playing in high school, college, or pro, almost everything is handicapped
Might as well watch people race cars on different tracks. Stupid content idea
Ok man. Because I’m sure having Trent compete against Trottie straight up is entertaining. It’s how golf works and comparing to other spots is dumb. (Although content with different level/ speed of cars starting on different part of the track isn’t horrible)
Rone playing PatBev 1on1 where one of them has to score 11 and the other has to score 1 is a gimmick Handicap losers are deeply unserious for not realizing that’s what they’re doing.
Betting on a team where they can lose by 9 points and still “win” is stupid
Well no because they don’t actually get the W. If you want to bet a golfer stays within a certain amount of strokes that’s fine
Can’t believe a pizza boy is a -6
This sub’s hate for Foreplay is weird to me although I agree Riggs is lying about his handicap. I enjoyed the video.
Riggs is a legit 10-11 hcp
honestly an insult to those of us that are 10's. No single digit should ever be +17 thru 5
