Rain, Legends, and Delays: Guy Cipriano Ranks Golf’s Most Memorable Scenarios

Welcome to a special edition of Mike and Matt. But today, we have Guy Cipriano with Golf Course Industry Magazine with us. Guy, how are you doing today? Great, Matt. I mean, we're at Cherry Hills Golf Club in Batavia, New York, getting ready to play in the New York GCSA POA outing. It's a crisp August twentieth day. Crisp in August twentieth, but it doing great. How can you not be? Oh, it's awesome to be out here. So we're gonna ask you or tell you five statements about, showing up to a golf course. You're gonna rank them from one being outstanding, five being that would be not good if it's if I see it. Am I showing up as a player, Matt, or am I showing up as somebody touring the golf course with the superintendent? You are gonna be a player. Oh. So if this is from a player's perspective, you show up to your your tee time and it's raining. Five. That totally sucks. Okay. You show up ten minutes early and the tee times are already running thirty minutes late. You know, that's a three or a four right there. It depends what the vibe is. Sometimes waiting to play could be the best part of the round if you're with the right people telling the right stories. Okay. Sunny, seventy seventy eight degrees, no wind. One. Okay. But I don't know your other scenarios. That that's what makes it so fun. You're getting ready to play and the fourth guy is late to the tee time, and he's a current PGA Tour player. Oh my god. That's a one. Right? Like, that would be awesome. I actually have an experience like that. Oh my god. Like, twenty years ago, when I was working in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, I was playing a golf course, Mark Twain golf course in Horseheads, New York by myself. And the guy who was in front of me me was slowed down and asked me, hey. Can I join you, or do I wanna join him? I'm like, sure. And we get through a hole. I'm like, this guy looks really familiar. And then I looked on his bag, and it was a central New York golf legend, Joey Sindelar. And I played the back nine at Mark Twain Golf Course with him just on a random, Tuesday when I was working in Williamsport, New York. Oh, that's awesome. Hey, Guy. Thanks for participating in our five questions. Thanks, Matt.
