00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 3: very well, but I do hit it. Me and me

37
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 3: and Olivia's grandfather we played golf quite often. You know,

38
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 3: we're actually in We traveled to the territorym in the

39
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 3: caravan and the caravan park and we used to go

40
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 3: play golf. And Olivia was always playing with our golf clubs,

41
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 3: you know. And then this was two years ago, so

42
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 3: I was just on four, and so we got the

43
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 3: hacks are out and cut her down a golf club

44
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 3: and put a grip on it and she hit a

45
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 3: ball and we just went, wow, let's do that again.

46
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 3: And then she's hit it again and again. Then we

47
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 3: seek some professional coaching Parmers and golf Club and she's

48
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,400

61
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,880

62
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 1: So not only the Australian champion, but can also beat

00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: your dad dad?

64
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 2: What's that like being beaten by your daughter? Are you

00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 2: quite proud?

00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 1: I am?

67
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely. You know it's I always said that the

68
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 3: day one of my kids beat me at golf's ire retiring.

69
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 3: I don't think I retired this earlier, but I guess

70
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 3: it's come around pretty soon.

71
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 2: Were you expecting it to be a six year old daughter? No,

72
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 2: not at all.

73
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 3: You know when when she first started.

74
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 2: You know, you can see the potential.

75
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, and a lot of kids go out there and

76
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 3: play golf, and yeah, Olivia is just there's got to

77
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 3: be some sort of natural talent. Yeah, you know, your

78
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 3: golf swing and that sort of stuff. And she has

79
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 3: that natural hand eye coordination which is fantastic. And yeah,

80
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 3: so to say that my daughter beats me is a

81
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 3: proud statement. You know, I don't like saying that I

82
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 3: lose very often, but to her it's pretty good.

83
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 2: It's a funny thing, isn't it.

84
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 1: You think you'll be disappointed when your kids can beat

85
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: you with something, but it's actually really nice.

86
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,280
