Back 9 Report Talks Thankfulness

Co-hosts Fred Altvater and Carlos Torres check-in once again to talk about anything and everything golf!

In this episode of Back 9 Report, they recap the recent tournaments on The Weekend Backspin, and bring you a different take on the recent news on The Par-5 News presented by United Golf Network.

This week’s news include Tiger Woods’ net worth and his being named as vice-captain for the Ryder Cup USA team; Patton Kizzire named Web.com Tour player of the Year; Dick’s Sporting Goods/Golf Galaxy year earnings improve; Paul Casey declines European Tour membership, but Russell Knox accepts it; Fox Sports airs a Jordan Spieth special on his US Open Win on Thanksgiving and finally the golf course at Rio de Janeiro for the Olympics is ready for play.

Our friend and European Guru, Kieran Clark, uses The Chip Shot this week to give his take on the European Tour’s Race to Dubai finals.

The Very Important Guest (VIG) of the Week, Tom Patri, is one of Golf Magazine’s Top 100 Teachers in America and has been a leading voice in golf instruction for more than 30 years. He talks basics for beginners and average golfers.

And on The Practice Range, Fred and Carlos discuss the things that they are thankful for in golf.
