Lesson Introduction
Rick and Bob are back again bringing you another sports lesson, and on this occasion we are heading to a golf course. Golf is a game with a long history and a tradition of strange words, and in this English teaching podcasts, you’ll learn how to talk about golf and sound like a pro. So, if you can’t impress your friends with your amazing golf swing, at least you’ll be able to impress them with your extensive golf
A: Good morning golf aficionados! My name is Rick Fields, and you guessed it, I am here with my main man, Bob Copeland.
B: Thank you, Rick! As you can see, ladies and gentleman, we are here in beautiful Pebble Beach where the top golfers in the world are trying to win the grand prize of one million dollars!
A: Whoa, that's a lot of cash! Let's go to the course and see how Tiger Woods is doing.
B: All right, were're here at the eighth hole. It's a par four, and has some very difficult hazards which many golfers find difficult to avoid. Although, I did see Jack Nicklaus hit a hole in one on this very same hole!
A: Tiger Woods is about to tee off, and let's see if he has the same luck as Jack. Tiger is asking his caddie for his driver and, he seems to be very nervous.
B: Oh no! Not a good swing at all! It's definitely not his day today. On the seventh hole he got a bogey and before that he barely made par. He will definitely not get a birdie on this shot.
A: It seems that his ball has flown somewhere deep in the trees. He is having a hard time finding it and even his caddie has climbed a tree to try and spot it.
B: Oh no! A bear! Run, Tiger, run! Somebody call animal control!
