TRANSCRIPTS
 

-Previously. -It's mano-a-mano. It's either put up or set up. -Look at this shot. -I'm not going down without a fight for my team. -Are you kidding me? -God! -Great job. -Yeah. -Are we ever gonna get a break here? -It's in the-- -What a terrible shot. -I skimmed down and, you know, not a

hit a golf shot and I didn't. -Team Straffan, you're off to the elimination challenge where Joe will have to decide who he will pick. -Joe is definitely taking me in. -Joe is [unk] by. -Julien has the most experienced playing on their team. -I don't know what he was thinking. -Joe! -That is gone. -Julien is safe and on to the next show. Disaster for Joe. -It just sucks taking somebody out from your own team, man. -A lot of good stuff happen out there. Besides, one of my stellar shots, which cost it for the team. -You feel like you should have been the one in the elimination? -I'm not saying I would have gone home. I'm not saying that. I just yeah-- I'm saying like I always-- I would have been able to like fight for my position. -5 stacks, baby. -5 bags of sand in the hand. -I think they're gonna be rattled. Nina feels guilty-- -She feels guilty-- -when Joe went home. -but the reason why-- why I said Nina is tripping 'coz her true game is coming out the last couple of days. -Hi Steph. -Hi guys. -Oh son of a-- -Oh Jesus Jerry. Look-- -You kidding me? -Here we go. -That wasn't a welcome that I wanted. -Hi Tom! -We thought we would give you the opportunity to experience a little bit more of Irish Golf. We are going to whisk you away-- -To the Portmarnock Hotel and Golf Links. -I love-- -Yeah! -I love it. -I love it. -Sweet. -And that's where you'll be competing tomorrow. -Nice. -Let's enjoy the night. We'll handle Portmarnock when we get there. -Yes sir! Cheers to that. Here we go. -K Club is right there. You can see it and we're going over here in Portmarnock. -We're going close to the ocean right? -Right on the ocean. -Yes. -And we got told this morning we got to pick a team captain, which is-- means that we are staying together as a team. -Yes. -Now, you-- Now, you can be nice to us again. -Yes. I'm very excited. -Now, Mallory can be nice to us again. -Whoever got picked captain, they're gonna be up for elimination, but they also had a chance of getting $5000. -It's time to select a captain. -She is going in and she's pulling her ball. -Do it. -And-- -Myself. -There's our captain. Nicole, high five. -Alright, high five. Yeah. -Go team. -Do you wanna be captain? -Yes. -Do it. -It's alright guys. -I think that's fair. We both got 5 bags of sand. -Yeah. I-- I wanna try to win myself a bag of sand. -Pulling up to the golf club was incredible. It looks like British Open all over. I mean, it's below 25, 30 already. -The view was breathtaking. -See the flags blowing. See pot bunkers and Mark was just looking his chops. -Pure golf. -This is a place you should visit one time before you kick the bucket or such. -The wind is blowing us north of the capital city, Dublin, to the coastline and to the Portmarnock Hotel and Golf Links where the action for this show is going to be taking place. -In this immunity challenge, the teams will play out from 9 different locations. And at each location, a player from both teams will square off in a head-to-head match. The player with the low score will win the match and pick up a point for their team. If they tie, they'll both earn half a point. -The first team to 5 points, they will be safe and on to their next show. The losing team, well, there's trouble ahead for them. They'll be heading to the elimination challenge where the captain will have to choose one of their teammates to face in a battle for survival. The teams are currently discussing between themselves the strategy for the immunity challenge. -We got Murph who grew up in this so that's gonna be a big help to us. And he's gonna teach us a little bit how to keep the ball under the wind today. -This one here, it just seem you like hit it 2 or 3 feet on it. She should run right through hole or down to the hole. -Which one are you comfort wise out today? -This is probably easier I'd say. You kinda end to the wind. -I like that one. -Hopefully try and keep Nina away from the shot that would determine if we win or lose. -Okay. Well, Nicole and Mallory have made their selections for this first of 9 locations and it's Andy versus Nina. You two have not been the best of friends so far in the competition. -I know that Nina wants to beat me pretty bad. -Andy is still a cocky guy and, you know, same guy he's gonna be always. -For a couple of days, we had a little beef going. -I think Andy's gotten on her nerves a little bit. She wanted to go up against Andy too. It was a great match-up for the first round there. -This one's a much shorter shot than the other two and it's down the breeze. -I have hit bad shots last few days and I shouldn't have and I wish I wouldn't have, but here's my chance. Stop, sit, sit. -Sit easy. -Alright. -Got in. -Got in. -Nina hit a fantastic bunker shot to start off. -It is exactly what I would have done coming out. -I chose to take that shot because I felt good about getting myself to a good start. -Nice shot. Go in. -Great shot. -Okay. -Great touch. -Great shot. Do it buddy! -I had a great bunker shot. -He's cocky and he knows that he's got game. -With this wind, they are really gonna have to concentrate on their putts. -I messed up in the last show and don't wanna lose. So, I'm just trying to think positively. -Good try. -Andy has a big opportunity now to take the full point and put Team Liffey on the board. -In these conditions, anything can happen. You can 3 putt from 6, 7 feet in a heartbeat. -Ooh! -He missed it. -Oh good. Okay, we can use just half this and get started. -Nina is gonna make her putt. I'll make my putt and I start off with a half. -Right in the back, Nins. Right in the back. -I was like what are you doing? What are you doing? -Put your head right. -Nina losing the immunity challenge for her team the other day when Joe got eliminated, I think that shaken her up a little bit. -Andy now for 3 and the win. -Yeah, this is her point. -Good job Andy! -Well done [unk] -There was an inner satisfaction and I can tell the emotion in Nina's face. -Clearly, I'm like the weakest link, you know, like I was gonna sit up the show. She's the next one that needs to go because she clearly doesn't have the game. -My mind's going kinda all over the place before the putt. I decided to ground my putter. -Next, we see him step off the ball. -I'm not sure if it's moving up. -I couldn't believe it. -Andy and Team Liffey have a point on the board. Team Straffan trail after the first bunker shot. -And again, as we continue throughout the 9 locations, whichever team reaches 5 points first will win the challenge. We move to the second location where the captains will go head to head. It's Mallory versus Nicole. -First team to 5 points wins. Our strategy was get up early. -I didn't wanna get too cute with it. You know, obviously, you don't wanna hit the lip. You think of all the crazy stuff you've seen in British Opens. Go! It's gotta roll out. -She like barely got out of the bunker, so I kinda was like okay we need to hit it a little harder. -That leaves some room open for Nicole. Team Straffan is 1 point behind. -Alright captain. -Save my ass again. Roll out. -Come on. -Go. -Come on. -Alright. I was a little flustered, but at the same time I was like what are you gonna do? -It's not gonna be easy to make putts in these conditions. It's hard to feel confident when, you know, you're taking it back and the wind is making your putter move. -Don't get too cute with this. Go get half. Going to move on. -Breeze. Go! -And Mallory still had 2 to 3 feet left. -It was gusting so bad. I was a little freaked out. Give it a good roll, but just don't blow it past. -Move. -She didn't like it right away. -Ends up further away than mine. You know, okay. -You can't control it so why get mad? -She has to make this at least to secure half a point for her team. -Good putt. -Hey girl. -Mine went in so after that I was like it's not that hard. -Mine's a must make to have the match. I can't let it distract me and then me do something stupid. -Atta girl. -Thanks. -That means that it's half a point for Straffan, one and a half points for Team Liffey after 2 locations. -We move to our third and final location from the bunkers and it will be Mark versus Julien. -I chose about 30 yards to the green and then pin it maybe on 15, so maybe a 45-yard bunker shot. -This is the kind of weather I grew up in Montreal where I come from. I love it. -I was expecting him to get that up and down. At this point, I'm just trying to get a putt to make a 2. -This is a much more difficult bunker shot than the first two. -Woah. -Great! -Good shot. -Thanks. God that wind. -I'm thrilled Mark's on my team today because he is by far the most experienced links player of anybody left. -45-yard bunker shot is not an easy bunker shot to hit, but I'm still confident. I'm still looking forward to hitting it. -That's gonna get-- -Go get up! -Doesn't even find the green leaves that short, so advantaged Julien. -That's-- That's not good. -Pretty bad. -Mark is not playing his best golf yet, but to me Mark is still day 1 Mark. He's still Captain Mark that messed up for us. -Right! -Great shot! -Right! -Good job. -You know what Murph? You've gotta take this on the chin, man, and roll your ball in. -Gently! Slow down! -Definitely an opening. I've got a nice-looking putt, so I'm thinking we're gonna tie this baby up. My mind is going kinda all over the place before the putt. I decided to ground my putter. Next thing we see him step off the ball. -I'm not sure if it's moving up. -Hit his club. -I couldn't believe. -Absolutely incredible. -Here. -Julien can make this, the immunity challenge will be tied at one and a half points each. -I decided to ground my putter. -Next thing we see him step off the ball. -I'm not sure if it's moving up. I think it moved a little forward. -Hit his club. -If you're sure it came to rest in another spot. -Mine moved just a little bit so-- -He called the rules official in and he said I hit the ball and the rules official said it's a 1-stroke penalty. -Oh my god! The golf gods out to get me. -All I know is my putter hit the golf ball so that's the stroke in my book. All of a sudden your focus kinda gets thrown off and you're more worried about the ball moving than you're about making the putt. -This putt is to secure half a point for his team. -Definitely had to refocus. You know, what happened before was just kinda dumb on my part and that's the bottom line. -Putt! -After having a 1-shot penalty, he drains it. -A good 3 and well 4 from Julien. -I know I have to make this putt. Even though he-- he's done what he's done, I have to leave all of that behind me. I have move on with my game. If I misstep, we're back tied again. -Putt Mark. -Yes. -There you go. -Go Mark. -Sorry Jules, not as bad looking, Jules. -Yeah. -I was just-- That's bad look brother. -What a waste of a good bunker shot and a good putt. -It's my own fault. That's not a tough break, you know. -Good putt. Good. -This sucks for Nicole that I did that. This gotta come out low [unk] we'll be alright. -The score after 3 locations is 2 to 1 in favor of Team Liffey. We now move back to our 4th location. We're gonna see 3 shots from the rough in the next stage of this immunity challenge. -Again, the first team to 5 points wins the immunity challenge. So, Team Liffey, if they're able to win all 3 of these next matches, they'll be safe and on to the next show. -There's definitely some frustration. -That point, you know, we're 1 down and that's because of me again. -First up will be Mark for Team Liffey and he's gonna be taking on Nicole from this first location. -This is a difficult shot, man. -50 miles an hour wind coming across the shore. There's 2 of pretty fun pin over a bunker. Try and use a little bit of experience. Get your ball on the green. Put a little bit of pressure back on her. -Get down! Right! Right! Sit! -Yeah. -Good job Mark. -It's unbelievable [unk] move. -It was good. -Always good like they do. -Even being 1 down, if we get half a few, a win was coming somewhere. I'm really good with little touchy shots. You could hit your mark and it can either respond as you would think it's supposed to or it won't, but I can't control what the ground does. -Beautiful shot. -Sit! Come on. -Beautiful shot. Great job. -There's no give up in any of us 3. So, I knew Nicole was gonna go in there trying to make that shot. -At least you see an end up close if it misses. I'm not gonna like hammer it past. -Mark is gonna be putting down the slope. And you know, if he hulls this, Team Liffey will have a 2-point lead and they'll only be 2 points away from the win. -One thing you're gonna do is raise it 5, 6 feet by and miss that one and now here we go again. Worst case scenario here. Give yourself a look, but don't make 4 from here. -And I tell you what, he did not leave himself a very easy putt for 3. -Murph, you donkey. You know, he did it again. Now, he's got another 4-putter. The first 2 was not enough. He had to go again. -Go Mark. -Putt Mark. -Putt Mark. -Nicole will finish her putt off. -To have the match. -Good putt. -Good. -It's two and a half, one and a half. As long as we're getting some kind of points, we're staying ahead. -I get along with Andy in doses I guess I would say. -Everybody was kind of talking about how hard it was and run it up and you can't stop it. They may not be able to, but I know I can stop a ball there. -As we continue throughout the 9 locations, whichever team reaches 5 points first will win the challenge. -Am I nervous? Yes. Do I hope that something pulls through? Yeah, but after Nina, we, you know, have everything so hopefully something great will happen. -Nina and I go to the next location. It's kinda behind a knoll from the rough and it's a blind shot. You can't see the pin. You kinda gonna have to go between 2 putt bunkers. -Nina has been struggling over the last couple of shows. She had a few loose shots. This will be a good time for her to redeem herself. -This is my chance like do something for your team or else, you know, that's 2 on you again. If you carry it all the way there, you have no chance at stopping it. Sit! And it lands right next to the hole and it ends up off the green. -I don't think she's ever played anything like this. -Did all you can do. -Okay. She's opened the door for me again. She did it last show by hitting it in the water. I'll just have to take advantage of it again. Run! -Mallory tried to play a little link shot and run it in there, which is the shot to play, but just didn't give it enough. And Nina has run down into a swell at the back of this green. She actually has the more difficult shot. -I'm thinking if I putt it, it might not get there 'coz I'd have to hit it pretty hard. I don't mind hitting my 60. I can get it to the checkup pretty quickly. -Alright, keep that wedge in your hand and you are not gonna get up and down. -She needs to hit this close and keep Team Straffan in this challenge. -That's not what I wanted. Just disaster. That's it in my hands pretty much. The first one I left short. I didn't wanna leave it short again. Sit! -She just completely just said here you go, take the match, and I'm just kind of going-- Well, let me just make it hard on myself. -I need to pull this together. I can still make this. -This putt to secure her team at least a half a point. -Sit down! How the fuck-- -She got blown right off it when she putted. You see that? -The wind moved her. -It blew-- It blew her right over. -Her confidence probably isn't too high on this putt so I'm thinking, you know, if I 2 putt, I'm gonna win this. -And she lost it low so she'll finish that up, so Mallory in for Team Liffey with 4 from this location. -Everybody else in this show right now is doing their job besides me. So clearly, I'm like the weakest link. -If she makes it, they have the match. Half a point goes to each team. If she misses, she loses another point for her team. -I don't need to really prove myself anything. It was more to prove to my team that I could play golf; otherwise, I wouldn't be here. -This seriously is fucking irritating. -What is going on? Yeah, so we now are 2 points down due to Nina. -Well, that's disaster. -Good shot in there. -It wasn't though. Too much putt. Why should she just [unk]? -She's basically giving points to the other team at this point. -And now, Team Liffey only one and a half points away from victory. -She's very frustrated. She keeps going uh! -All I can do is try to go out and beat Andy in the third part. -Andy, the final player for Team Liffey to go from the rough locations. This is a 114 yards, gotta go over the bush to win big time off the [unk]. -Everyone was kinda talking about how hard it was and run it up and you can't stop it. -Andy is very cocky. -They may not be able to, but I know I can stop the ball there. -I get along with Andy in doses I guess I would say. One thing Mark did was don't fight the wind today. So, my target was about 20, 25 yards left of the green. -Great shot! -Thanks. -That took some creativity. I'll give him credit. It was a good shot. -From there, 3 was gonna be a good score because 3 hasn't lost a hole yet. -Julien has the pressure on his shoulders right now. He's seeing down three and a half to one and a half. They need to make a move right now. -I knew I had to deliver a good shot at least something on the green. Give myself a chance for 2. -Come on Jules. -And this one needs to get up, has to get up. -I've come extremely close to quitting golf several times. Just the perseverance that it takes to keep going, it's just so hard. I'm just excited that my passion for the game is kinda already coming back like I'm excited to practice and I'm excited to get back into it and, you know, that's a long way from where I was even a month or two ago. It's kind of a life changer in a way. -Andy in prime position. Julien has to respond with something special. -His team down three and a half to one and a half. They need to make a move right now. -I knew I had to deliver a good shot at least something on the green, give myself a chance for a 2. -This one needs to get up, has to get up. -Oh. -That was shocking 'coz Julien has been hitting it good. -Julien has to win this hole just 'coz we're down by so many. -My ball is like a foot in the bunker. I got this downhill lie, so I'm in there. I'm like this in the bunker. I got my face wide open. Sit. -Great shot! -Nice Jules. -Thanks. -Definitely put some pressure on Andy at least to hit a good first putt. I was trying to cozy it up in there. Tap in for 3 and make-- make another big putt. -Sit up! -Drop, Drop. -Oh! Nice job! -Great shot! -Great putt Andy! -So Andy with the win. That's a point. Team Liffey is just half a point away from winning the immunity challenge. -Making that putt. That was dagger. That's why I play golf. -Alright. -We need to beat them on the next 3 holes outright. We can't have it. We have to win. -The 3 fairway shots for the last part of the immunity challenge were from the center of the fairway from 35 yards, 75 yards, and a 115 yards. -This is the first match-up from the fairway locations and it is the team captains that are gonna be squaring off. -I just kinda wanted to earn the $5,000 for myself and end it with me. -At that point, my mind was already in the change of being like we're going to elimination because Nina was after me and we already saw how [unk] to win. I mean, she was gonna screw me over either way. -Sit, sit, sit. -Sit! -Sit. -Alright. -All I have to do is take her out. What the best option is to get it as close to the hole as possible. -If Nicole makes 2, great. She deserves it. -You know, I'm thinking make it 3 and we're done. Sit. Sit! Sit. -That's not exactly what you wanted to do. -If Nicole can squeak this out, I think you got yourself a rematch. -Uh, Oh god, I know. Like that. -Like that-- -I want it bad. Growing up with my dad as a caddy, you know, I read greens well. Putting is my game. -Mallory for the win. -Slow down. -[unk]. -She still has some work left. -Again? Like what are you 'doin? I guess I just really wanted to test my putting in this thing. -I knew Nicole is gonna go in there trying to get up and down in 2 'coz 2 is a pretty good score today. -I figured if I made 1 it was good to kinda shove it down through a little bit. -And Mallory gives a big sigh of relief. -Hey, Nicole in with 3. All Mallory needs to do is hold this putt and her team wins the immunity challenge and they'll be safe and on to the next show. -This putt that I have is worth $5,000. It's worth not going to elimination again and I'm just thinking-- I mean, I'll just be confident, knock it in. -One down. -Good girl. -Good putt. -Get it done. -That means that Team Straffan, they will be heading to the elimination challenge and 1 of the 3 will be going home. -Don't be the hero just be aggressive and smart. -Oh geez. Down. -[unk]. -What? -In this elimination challenge, 2 players from Team Straffan will be undergoing a serious test of links golf. And at the end, one of them will be going home. -Well, in this final challenge, the players will have to battle this brutal wind on the 8th and 18th holes here on the Portmarnock Hotel and Golf Links. Now, in the end, the player with the high score will be eliminated from Big Break Ireland. -I have more control over the situation now than I did earlier. -This time I'm a 100% sure Nicole is picking me. And if I do get kicked off, I deserve it. -Nina should go home before I did and I, you know, was totally fine with being the one who sent her there. I'm gonna play against Nina. -It's my turn. I haven't, you know, played up to my potential. -I pick Nina because she didn't perform today. -I've hit some bad shots, you know, under pressure. I need to step up. -So, it is the best choice, you know, kinda easy into being in an elimination. -I wanted to play against Nicole, so here's my chance. It's a huge challenge for me personally because starting golf at 17 and playing against all these girls that were bred into playing golf, I've always been super determined to beat those girls. -Good shot. -Thanks. -Being a link-style course and with the wind blowing so hard, it was just safe to just kind of hit a shot down there. I just went into it with a very safe mindset. Just no mistakes. -Good ball. -Come on. -I was rooting for Nina because Nicole's gonna play on the LPGA Tour some day and for Nina to get on tour, she's gonna need a little experience. -I have no doubt-- I didn't wanna question myself. Straight down the wind. Aim right at the pin and you just hope the right club is in your hand because the wind is pushing so hard. -It's an absolute cracker of a golf. -[unk] Keep going, keep going. -Wow! -Great shot Nina! -Wow! What a shot. -That's as good as it gets there. -In those kind of conditions, you know, under elimination pressure, I stepped up and I hit a great shot. -I was not paying attention to her at all. Competitors, they don't really look at them and judge them or have time for them. -Nicole has a 118 yards to go and this is straight down the breeze. -Don't be the hero. Just be aggressive and smart. -Oh Jesus. -Down. -Get a bite. -That's gotta bite and-- -Sit! -Uh-oh. -She is not gonna like that. -Serious trouble. -The champion of Big Break Ireland will earn $50,000 in cash. They will also tee it up against the best players in the world. If a woman wins, she will compete in the 2012 Kia Classic and return to the Emerald Isle for the 2012 Ladies Irish Open. If a man wins, he will travel to Morocco for the 2012 Hassan II Golf Trophee then come back to Ireland for 2012 Irish Open. In addition, the champion will receive a 10,000-dollar shopping spree courtesy of Dick Sporting Goods, a vacation for 2 to the amazing West of Ireland courtesy of Tourism Ireland, which includes 3 nights at Ashford Castle, 3 nights at Doonbeg Golf Resort, 5 rounds of spectacular golf, and a courtesy car from Dunleer Car Rattles, $10,000 worth of travel to anywhere in the world thanks to United Airlines. Finally, the winner will be offered an endorsement contract with Adams Golf, which includes $10,000. -Golf is very serious for me and I'm very competitive. Go out there and be as cocky as you need to be because it doesn't matter how other people think or, you know, feel about you. It's whatever makes you perform to your best. -I do think I can win. I have the talent. I can execute any shot that I want. I-- I just say this is what we need, Nicole. Do it. -In this elimination challenge, Nina and Nicole are playing the first of a 2-hole match. Nina has only 8 feet left for birdie, but Nicole has just hit her second shot over the green. -My one first like real bad shot and I was like--, you know. It kinda stung. Wow, advantage me. -Nicole is a long way through this 8th green and this is the one place that you cannot go on this hole. -Oh! It was disgusting looking. -Nicole needs a little bit of [unk] -That's a-- That's a cabbage lie right there. -Just getting it out of it was gonna a success. Be smart. The last thing you wanna do is hit like a hero shot and screw yourself even harder. -Oh. Go! Go! -The advantage really goes to Nina right now. -That could have been me. Everybody is thinking that should be me hitting bad shots. -[unk] are off now ladies and gentlemen. -I was a little flustered, but at the same time I was like try and make your putt. -Go! Go! -Nicole coming up shy so she's gonna have that left for her bogey. Nina has the chance here to go at least 2 shots ahead. -Nina clubs the door right here right now. -If she continues to putt today how she's been putting, we possibly could tie. -She moves that in, Nicole's putt gets way longer. -Ooh. -I need to make sure I'm confident. You know, it's 1 putt. 1 putt is gonna change this game. -Great putt! -Wow! -Wow! -What a putt from-- -Great birdie. -Nina. -Yeah, what a 3. -What? -Wow! Did she just do that? -What changed? What all of a sudden made you miss a 3-footer to like the old to make like an 8 footer. -If Nina hit bad golf shots, that doesn't mean she's not confident and poised. -She was due. I was due. She owed it to me. -Good job Nicole! -Great putt! -Good putt! -Good putt Nicole! -So I'm 2 strokes up going into this last hole. It's a good feeling. -[unk] a putt all of a sudden. -And we will head to the 18th, the closing hole of Portmarnock Hotel and Golf Links where one of these 2 players will be eliminated. -I'm playing almost the best player on LPGA, LPGA Tour and I can go in there and compete against here and actually give her a run for her money. -Nicole has to hope that Nina makes a big mistake and she could because there are some pretty deadly bunkers on this 18th hole. -Playing directly into the wind. -Run. Run. Hitting in the middle, that just kind of like turned the knife a little. Yeah. -I'm gonna come back for a minute. I'm gonna get a birdie. It's not over. -She could get a kick here. -Big drive. It needs to just run a little further. It's okay. No problems. -We're not avoiding each other, but you feel the tension. It's all business. We're here to compete against each other. -She looked a lot more calm and confident. -During the immunity challenge, I think that's what really kinda gave me a taste of what needed to be done to play well on the link course. -The wind big time off the left and there is trouble down the right. If she loses this ball right, she could find some heavy rough. -Nicole needed Nina to hit a bad golf shot. -Right at it. -Money. -Right at it. -Look at this. -Great shot. -Over. -Great-- -Ball game. -That's there. -Wow. -Very good shot. -She hits it right up there to 10 feet like it's no big deal. -I know she's pretty pissed and I'm sure she's thinking, you know, where has this player been the last couple of days. -You have to expect that Nina is gonna 2 putt. -All out? -She's gonna be thinking it man. -Yup. -You know her. She won't be backing down any minute. -If you can get a really good shot out, you know, maybe we can make something happen. -Good shot. -Good shot. -Good shot Nic. -Back to back shocker elimination challenge episodes. -She has more experience than I do. She's been in tougher conditions than I have. -If I jarred it, it would rattle back how horrible her putting was earlier and we could go into a play-off. -She probably just wanted to can it just for a 3. -I don't wanna feel like I didn't give it a chance. I said you better make this touch the hole. -Hit it! -Yes. -Ooh! -The edge. -The hole is it? -She was thinking-- -It was almost a slam dunk. -It was a great putt and, you know, what can you do? -So, this for the win. -I wanna drain this. No, I don't wanna give it away and, you know, make her think she had a chance. I'll just kinda send her a silent message. -Hang in there. -Surprised to see Nicole go. -Best feeling ever. I mean take somebody so strong out of the competition. -So, Nina Rodriguez is safe and on to the next show. Nicole Smith is eliminated in Big Break Ireland. -The putter turned on. -Wrong timing. -It was more of a bitter-- like a little stab like-- You know, you decide to show up now. -I'm pissed off that she 3 jacked 2 putts. -She sabotaged [unk] can kick my ass. -How do you jack up 2 putts that bad and then come out and do what you just did? -I've been a fighter my whole life so it's like call me out and I'm gonna show who's boss. -Do I think she got lucky? Yeah. I mean, she got really lucky. -Hopefully, this doesn't leave any bitter taste in your mouth, but if I know her-- if she's anything like me, which she is, it'll take a while. -You alright? -[unk] -I came on to be able to be in a moment in a shot and have it all count on that. And you know, sadly it didn't work in 1 and it was the shot that, you know, sent me home. I still got to feel what it was like to have everything ride on 1 shot. You don't get those moments that much. Everything is always learning experience. -Today is gonna be about survival. -Gust up to 70 miles an hour. -There is no light up. It was just constant wind. -You can't make any mistakes. -I had just gotten the luckiest break on the Big Break. -Hit it. -Are you kidding me? -This is my house. This is where I live [unk] I'm not the one going, right buddy? -Never been put through the mental and emotional grind that I have been on this Big Break. -Andy is just-- -I think he's actually scared. -Bok. Chicken. Bok-bok.
