- During a trip, Erik Anders Lang makes an impromptu visit to Park City, Utah, to play a match with Tony Finau. Finau hosts Erik at his home club, the Promontory Club, where they play the daunting Painted Valley Golf Course. Painted Valley Golf Course was designed and completed in 2007 by Jack Nicklaus. This links-style golf course measures an incredible 8,098 yards and has a course record of 68. While recording a podcast, EAL and Tony agree to match play terms that give Erik one shot per hole for the duration of the round. Tune in to watch Erik and Tony go head-to-head on the front nine of a world-class golf course!

The fact that he walks over into the shit to help you with your decision on taking a drop or playing a shot back into the fairway says a lot about his character and respect towards you EAL! Tony is class
All he did was walk up a small patchy hill man...
@@BG-fh5me I mean I wouldn’t walk up a hill for EAL 😂
@@BG-fh5me lol I know right, over here making it sound like he demonstrated such decorum while in his mind he’s just being helpful and giving some input just like any person would when you’re golfing with them.
@@fredrickgarcia8917 well to be fair I don’t think just everyone you play with would do that. But yes he’s just being himself and his character is to be a friend to others
Tony is such a rounded man he is so humble
when you know where you come from you know to appreciate what you have
Ya, but Tony is a Trumpster so any good deeds are now undone.
@@StrangeBrewsings2 who cares bro. Politics don’t affect your everyday life. Shut up
@@StrangeBrewsings2 That is an EXTREMEMLY ignorant thing to say.
Beautiful course. Beautifully shot and edited. Well played my guy.
The divot tracer has me WEAK 😂
How is this not the most successful Golf channel on UA-cam?
As a New Yorker I feel like people from Utah are some of the nicest and most genuine out there.
Being a golfer in Utah Tony is a huge hero to everyone.
Tony Finau:
Description: Nice, calm, great golfer, hard-working, inspirational.
*What else could you want*
Tony is literally perfect for golf in all aspects. Great player and very humble.
Tony Finau is one of my favorite players on tour. A complete beast when swinging those clubs. An absolute gentleman in every interview/discussion I've ever seen. Excellent video RGC team!
My favorite pga pro and my favorite UA-camr playing? I can’t believe my eyes
Same here
Very motivational to hear about that 7 year journey Tony was on to reach the PGA Tour. Really inspiring for people to not give up in all areas of life if you believe in something worth fighting for.
What a great guy Tony is. Excellent watch.
Amazing dude probably my favourite video yet 😁
Thank you! The best part is, you still have the back nine to look forward to!
@@RandomGolfClubFilms yeahhhh can’t wait
New to golf. Best golf channel I’ve seen! Makes me want to play so much more. Music and videography is awesome.
Can't get enough of this.
Tony, if you're reading this - huge congrats on your win at the Northern Trust! i was pulling for you. knew you could do it 👍⛳😎
Tony is such a cool guy... his mindset, attitude & character is perfect for golf! Massive respect to his father for nurturing the love of golf!
I could feel the kid like admiration when you asked Tony what he would do on that shot out of the hazard. What a great experience.
I haven't even watched a minute of this yet and I can already tells its a banger! Love Tony Finau. Love EAL. What a combo.
Years back when Tony Finau had just come off the tv show The Big Break, I had the opportunity to meet him at a charity event where every group had the chance to try and out drive him on a par 4. He told us a great story on smoking a drive and another player ended up with tears in his eyes. He felt bad about the situation and decided to hit an iron against everyone else. We talked him into hitting his driver since we're big boys and it wouldn't hurt our feelings. He hit the ball so dang far! He's seemed like a great guy and even more now.
Erik, thanks for that shot at 25:00-it gives me hope for my game!
Erik...all your videos are fantastic....Tony is my new favorite PGA player...not only an awesome talent but an even better guy!!!!
What a person/player. Would love to see Tony win at Augusta this year.
It's amazing where Tony comes from. Grew up hitting balls into a mattress in his garage in Rose Park, Utah (one of the poorer areas in UT). Definitely not a country club kid.
And he played rose Park golf course to hone his skills. A true shithole. He said on tv that his favorite golf course was the Jordan River par 3 course. That's the first golf course i ever played. Also a shithole, but a good time.
@@danielbloedorn7983 yeah I went to rose park last week. Everything but the greens were terrible. For some reason the greens were Augusta level when I went lol.
@@meech37 yeah, the last time I played there the front 9 didn't even have fairways. It was all 3 inch grass. They should push the finau connection and doll that place up
@@danielbloedorn7983 it's unfortunate too because the windstorm we had here in SLC earlier this year leveled all the trees. The fairways were dirt. The course is going to need a lot of work/money but idk if SLC will spend that money on a course is rose park. Theyd rather spend it on the busy ones.
@@meech37 yeah it's sad seeing golf courses go south. Especially since it's the only thing that takes my mind off the sad state of the world
Tony is the man. How can you not root for such a great guy. Awesome episode.
This video was so well done. Didn’t ever want to fast forward, it was always engaging. Cuts between the golf/podcast. SO GREAT
Man, every time you go to Utah you get nothing but quality with quality people. Never leave. :)
I'd love to see a video of Tony just explaining his swing. It's so compact and sound. If I were teaching someone to golf, and wanted them to copy someone, it'd be him.
It's amazing where Tony comes from. Grew up hitting balls into a mattress in his garage in Rose Park, Utah (one of the poorer areas in UT). Definitely not a country club kid.
Tony is awesome and that might be the most beautiful setting for a golf course in the world.
Proud to be from Utah and have Tony represent!
Tony Finau just gained himself a new fan. Seems like a great guy all around.
Some of the best quality people I’ve found in our country hail from the great state of Utah. Tony included.
I just love the realness from the channel. Great group of guys
Tony is such a good human being. Such a good dude. Also, I wish you’d show each and every shot/putt! Would be cool to get the whole round
A big shout out to Tony Finau.....a great win today at THE NORTHERN TRUST 2021. So happy for him, such a great competitor and great guy to watch play golf with his sweet swing. Keep it up Tony and win the FedEX Cup.....
@17:00 when the shot tracer and Tony blend together *smacks lips* great editing on this video
I came here to say this - so satisfying
EAL living our dreams for us
Please post more videos like this!
A lot of media personnel try to get players to be something or someone they're not, but with EAL it seems as though they're always comfortable enough to be themselves. Kudos to you Erik.
Not sure how you can top this series with Tony Finau...but keep the content coming!
It would be awesome to see him break the course record. Can’t wait for the back 9!
What a joy of a post. BTW, thanks for the Spielberg-like production of this thing....the sound was rich. My ears hurt so much from all the Zoom sounds of everything nowdays, even in Networks the sound is crap sometimes. Tony is just a special athlete, humble...heck, anyone that basically starts their pro career on Big Break and then ends up on the PGA Tour and walking down the fairway with Tiger...just awesome. TU!!
The only golf channel where i'm okay with the actual playing of golf not being the main focus! Great video!
Your vibe is genuine and relaxed enough to create the ideal environment for your guests to kick back and reveal their true character. Keep it up, we love it!
This course is beautiful
This was awesome, I love hearing about Tony's struggles to be a professional golfer. 7 yrs of hard grind shows the determination he had. Thanks EAL
It was so nice that you played with Tony Finua one of my favorite golfers 🏌️♂️.
Genius interviewer...perfect content on a super nuanced game.
Love watching this video..Good to see Tony is still a very nice and accessible guy. Walked up with him back in 2007 on the Pro Am of the KLM open at Kennemer Golf & Country Club. Remember that he was hitting the balls 50-100 yards further then where the (ball) spotters were standing :)
Finau is super chill! He deserves more credit as a player.. Who remembers watching tony on the big break back in the day???
What a lovely guy. Nice film. Thanks.
My favorite golfer! Tony!
Tony Finau the realest dude. Great stuff EAL
RGC are just in a totally different level of Media, the delivery of information from EAL is just different level, this guy should be on mainstream doing this.
EAL, thanks for showing Utah golf in such a great light. It was awesome to meet you at Bonneville, and as a die hard golfer from Utah, know that we appreciate the love you have shown to our state through the bonding and incredible game of golf.
So cool! Tony got his second PGA win today! Class act! Nice video1
"You start hanging out with Tony too long, think you're invincible, and you end up taking lines you shouldn't have taken!" Also applies to hanging out with Dustin Johnson.
Zing!
Or you block it and act as if you thought you had the firepower to go with one of the longest guys in the game. Cmon man. EAL thinks he’s got game. Donald Chump
@@d-wreckb-check1691 Oh God forbid he attempt it. If he's paying for a draw he could have carried. Also, President Trump would own you on the course.
@@eagledetection4451 like you’d know lol
👃
Good company in a golf round is so much fun ! All the time !
What a Class Act don't come much better than this guy keep up the great work my friend many more tournaments you will win
Erik you are a huge asset to the golf community. Great vid as per usual
I always route for Tony when he is on top of the leaderboard!! I hope he gets in the winners circle again and more often!! I hope he wins the Masters sounds like that would mean a lot for him!! That course looks nice and I am sure it was funny to play a round with Tony!! Great video Erik!!
The podcast coupled with the content is why you set the standard for golf vlogs anywhere. Exceptional stuff guys
Played the nic multiple times ...saw mike weir last time I was there he gave me som chipping times it was awesome. Glad tony is putting it out there that this course is the toughest in Utah (because it is) can tell just watching the video it’s very very tamed down in October
Finau family smile .. amazing
Really enjoyed this video. Tony is one of my favorites on the PGA tour.
I remember watching Tony on Big Break and I’ve been rooting for him ever since. Not only is he a great golfer but he’s a true gentleman n family man. I root for him every time he tees is up. I want to see him win a major soon😊⛳️
Tony is freaking Awesome!!! I really liked him on Big Break(YES...He was on that TV show!) He was so chill and didn't take anything too seriously. Hearing his story, it make perfect sense. I liked him before, but after this I think I've become a true FAN. Inspirational guy. Now I need to check out his Podcast... THANKS!!!
I love these vlogs. Need them even. Especially now that golf season is basically finished
At least we will have the Masters soon!
Erik and Tony. Legends doing what they do. Glad the Covid stayed away from one of you. Can't wait to see this.
Tony might be the most comfortable person to be around in all of professional golf, what a guy.
I would love to golf with Tony. The guy is so cool and nice. He was raised by a great family.
love the videos

what an amazing journey i remember watching 3 years ago on skratch EAL, now golfing with TF. how freaking cool! dreamjob
Now that's a quality human being. Such a humble, cool dude. Also like the combination of golf and podcast, especially with a guy like Tony, who seems like a great interview. Great job EAL!

Playing with Tony, on that course? Life doesn’t get better than this.
Thank you for bringing an insight into Tony Finau, in UK we do not get a chance to get to know how much of well rounded great human being he is!!! Definitely a new addition to my favourite tour players to follow
Tony is the guy everyone should aspire to be, or have as a friend.
Stunning cinematography. Great episode
Really enjoyed watching this.
How can you not be a Tony Finau fan?
Tony is truly a humble person. That is why he is one of my favorite golfer and person. I’m rooting for his next tour win and major win.
What an amazing guy Tony! Awesome video :)
Great video, great mix of podcast + golf, and awesome competition.
What a great video & a true legend.
Love the production and editing of the video, let alone the content
