There’s a reason Fred Couples is one of the most popular golfers in the world. He’s a smooth-swinging, smooth-talking legend of the game who seems like a genuinely good hang. So our Dylan Dethier got a few minutes with Freddie and decided to do just that: hang. We figured you’d like to come along for the ride. From talking divots to texting Tiger to the origins of that smooth, smooth swing, here’s Warming Up with Fred Couples. Enjoy!

full disclosure - we were originally planning to do a full range session but we got Fred on a bad back day. he didn't want to push it with full swings but was still very game to hit some short-game shots, so we took things to the chipping green. it's a different feel than others in this series but I hope you guys dig it!

Fred Couples is a national treasure. He is the reason why I started to play golf as kid. I remember taping his rounds on VHS (yes ... VHS) and watching him over and over again. I can't imagine what it would be like to get to talk him for a little while.

@carlcampbell6827 2 месяца назад

I too love and admire Trevino. He was the reason I always wore a Top Flite hat. I hit Top Flite Z Balata balls that were real good for chipping and putting back in the day! I would love to hear what kind of balls guys hit years back; there were lots of good ones. I think of the old Maxfli A-10s which were hot; kind of scarry to put with.

Fred has a pad in Newport Beach at Deep Canyon and a winter place at the exclusive Madison Club in La Quinta. I walked along with Fred and Corey Pavin in their Pro debut at the Queen Mary open in Long Beach Calif. No ropes no crowds....players were friendly. Fred was carrying his Houston team golf bag.

@carlcampbell6827 2 месяца назад

It is weird how we remember phenomenal shots from years ago. At the Tiger Shoot Out at Sherwood in So CA. there was a steep hole with very elevated small green; it may have been a par 5 or long 4. Freddy drove the ball to the left edge of the fairway with a big tree guarding the green. I thought to myself "he won't be able to hit this green". He took out what looked like a long iron and hit a very high sweeping hook, around the tree that landed softly on the green near the flag! It was amazing standing by the green looking way down the fairway as the ball dropped.

Boom boom was always a player I idolized growing up, and his swing I worked to perfection during my hay day. Little cut, smooth power, strong follow through etc. it always killed me his back issues as I’m sure he’d have several majors if it were not for that back but what a cool guy and so much fun to listen to. Thanks for the great video, really like these. 👍

@Bbc3111 Месяц назад

You would not believe how competitive he is. He was playing with two friends in Vegas and from the first tee to the last green the back & forth never stopped. You could tell one guy in the group could really hit a ball and he would poke FC. So enjoyable to see and we were up close the entire time. They had a chipping contest every hole and this one friend won 17 of them. FC was wonderful taking pic with a small group of us after the round. A shoutout to him for the best golf entertainment Ive ever been around. Truly two very good friends he enjoyed.

Golf to me is all feel no mechanics, either your an Athlete or your not, next time your at a public course at the range, stop look around for a few minutes and you won't believe what your watching, lol lol we all come back for those 3 perfect shots every round,, Thank you for all the excitement throughout your career!

On the topic of the Ryder Cup, to hear Fred say the result was 'shocking,' is a surprise to me. If you look at how most of the top American tour players play, it's easy to understand why they struggle when the Ryder Cup is contested in Europe. The PGA Tour promotes a bomb and gouge style of play; hit it as far as you can off the tee, gouge a wedge out of the rough or fairway and shoot 3-5 under without much effort. The Euros set their courses up to discourage that and force the Americans to either play out of really difficult rough, or hit longer clubs into the greens, which is not their strength. Course setup vs. style of play is what kills the Americans, plain and simple!
