The All-Round Champion logo appears.
Perdita says, TEN ELITE ATHLETES ARE COMPETING IN EACH OTHERS' SPORT FOR THE TITLE OF ALL-ROUND CHAMPION. PREVIOUSLY...
Fenella says, TO BE A SUCCESSFUL EQUESTRIAN YOU HAVE TO BE ONE WITH THE HORSE.
Haven says, I'M SO SCARED.
A boy is on a horse.
Fenella says, PULL HARD, PULL HARD.
The boy says, I'M TRYING!
Fenella says, YOU'RE NOT KICKING, COME ON.
Perdita says, THE COMPETITION SAW MANY OVERCOME THEIR FEARS.
[Cheering]
Felix rides a horse over a jump.
A girl calls, LET'S GO, FELIX.
Felix says, YES!
Perdita says, SOME WERE DISAPPOINTED...
A girl calls, PATTY, STOP!
A girl falls off a horse.
The other contestants watch and cry, OH!
Perdita says, BUT BRODIE, HAVEN AND SYDNEY STOOD TALL ON THE PODIUM.
[Driving instrumental music]
A podium is labelled “All-Round Champion.” The contestants are shown. Cayde is on a skateboard. Faith drives an all-terrain vehicle. Fenella rides a horse. Jasmine dives into a pool. Sydney does flips. Brodie is in a kayak. Michael does a high-dive into a pool. Daniel wakeboards. Haven golfs. Marshall is on a mountain bike.
The All-Round Champion logo appears.
A bus travels on a road.
Perdita says, IT'S THE START OF AND ALMOST TIME TO FIND OUT WHICH SPORT THEY'LL BE LEARNING THIS WEEK. 13-YEAR-OLD DIVER, MICHAEL, HAS HURT HIS ANKLE OVER THE WEEKEND.
A caption reads: Michael, Diving, 13.
Michael says, WELL, I WAS ON THE TRAMPOLINE AND I DIDN'T REALIZE, LIKE, HOW IT WASN'T AS BOUNCY AS I THOUGHT IT WAS, SO I CAME OUT EARLY AND I JUST ROLLED MY ANKLE. WELL, HONESTLY, I JUST HOPE IT'S NOT, LIKE, WAKEBOARDING BECAUSE... OR SKATEBOARDING, 'CAUSE I'D HAVE TO USE MY ANKLE A LOT.
Perdita says, SO, AFTER A COUPLE OF SPILLS DURING EQUESTRIAN SHOW JUMPING LAST WEEK, AND MICHAEL'S WEEKEND TUMBLE, I'M GUESSING THE ATHLETES ARE HOPING FOR SOMETHING LOW-IMPACT.
A caption reads: Brodie, Kayaking, 13
Brodie says, I'M HOPING THAT THIS WEEK IS KAYAKING AND I'M PRETTY THAT IT'S GOING TO BE KAYAKING.
[Music playing]
The contestants watch a screen on the bus.
Perdita says, GOOD MORNING, ATHLETES. THIS WEEK'S SPORT REQUIRES YOU TO DRIVE. BUT NOT A KART. SORRY, FAITH. YOU'LL NEED EXCEPTIONAL CONCENTRATION, PLENTY OF PATIENCE AND A SET OF CLUBS. IT'S GOLF! WHICH MEANS, HAVEN, YOU'RE THIS WEEK'S SPORTS LEADER. YOU'LL HAVE TO GET YOUR FELLOW ATHLETES COMPETITION READY IN JUST THREE DAYS. WE'LL START WITH THE BASICS. CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU UP THERE.
[Cheering & clapping]
A caption reads: Haven, Golf, 14
Haven says, YEAH, I'M EXCITED TO, LIKE, COACH THEM, BECAUSE I KNOW, LIKE, THEY HAVE POTENTIAL.
Haven looks around the bus.
Haven asks, WHO HAS GOLFED BEFORE?
Daniel says, I'M NOT VERY GOOD BUT I DO PLAY WITH MY DAD ONCE A WEEK SOMETIMES.
A caption reads: Daniel, Wakeboarding, 14
Daniel says, PEOPLE WERE SAYING THAT THEY DON'T PLAY GOLF A LOT, SO I THINK I HAVE A CHANCE AT PODIUMING.
A caption reads: Faith, Kart Racing, 14
Faith says, GOLF'S DEFINITELY A SPORT BUT I'VE NEVER THOUGHT OF IT AS A SPORT THAT I WOULD PLAY BECAUSE I MORE OF A, LIKE, HARDCORE, ADRENALINE-TYPE SPORTS.
Daniel says, ALRIGHT, CAN WE MAKE A RULE THAT BRODIE AND CAYDE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DRIVE THE GOLF CARTS?
Another contestant says, WAIT A SECOND, I DON'T TRUST YOU TWO WITH THE GOLF CARTS, THOUGH.
A caption reads: Fenella, Equestrian, 13
Fenella says, I THINK I COULD GET THE BALL IN THE HOLE. THAT'S... THE MAIN IDEA, I THINK?
[Chuckling]
[Music playing]
Haven is on a golf course. She tees up a ball and swings a club.
Haven says, I WAS SIX WHEN I GOT INTO GOLFING.
A caption reads: Jeff, Haven’s Coach
Jeff says, HAVEN IS A NATURAL ATHLETE. GOLF IS ONE OF THE MOST DIFFICULT SPORTS TO LEARN AND SHE JUST TOOK TO GOLF IMMEDIATELY. I COULD SHE WAS, UH, ABOVE AVERAGE FROM THE START AND I JUST CALL HER MY CHILD PRODIGY.
A caption reads: Shellie, Haven’s Mom
Shellie says, THE MOMENT THAT I REALIZED HAVEN WAS REALLY GOOD AT GOLF I DECIDED TO PUT HER IN TOURNAMENT PLAY - AND SHE KILLED IT.
A row of medals is on a table, with many trophies
Haven says, I'M COMPETITIVE. I HATE LOSING MORE THAN I LOVE WINNING.
Jeff says, SHE'S WON A WHOLE BUNCH OF TOURNAMENTS. NOW SHE'S TAKING IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL, SHE'S PLAYING A TOUR CALLED THE AMERICAN JUNIOR GOLF TOUR, WHICH IS THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF JUNIOR GOLF THAT YOU CAN PLAY.
Haven says, I WANNA PLAY ON THE LPGA TOUR.
Shellie says, AS A SINGLE MOM I WEAR A LOT OF HATS. I'M COACH, I'M MOM, I'M SOMETIMES DAD, I'M THE CONFIDANTE, I'M THE FINANCIER AND I'M THE CADDY.
Haven swings a golf club.
Haven says, I TRAIN FOUR TO SIX HOURS A DAY. I'M ALWAYS THINKING ABOUT HOW I CAN DO BETTER THAN I DID THE DAY BEFORE.
Jeff says, I MEAN, TALK ABOUT WORK ETHIC, NOT ONLY HER, BUT HER MOM, THEY'RE HERE
PRACTICING ALL THE TIME, WORKING ON HER GAME. THEY COME UP SUN-UP, SUNDOWN, HARD WORK IS THE BIGGEST ASSET SHE HAS. SHE COULD BE THE SERENA OF GOLF. THINK SHE'S GONNA WIN IT ALL AND BRING IT HOME.
[Music playing]
Text reads: Golf. The Basics
Perdita says, SO, NOW THAT THE ATHLETES KNOW THEY'RE GOING TO GOLF, IT'S TIME TO FIND OUT HOW THEY'LL BE GETTING A HANDLE ON THE BASICS. AND I THINK I HAVE A PRETTY GOOD SURPRISE IN STORE FOR THEM.
The contestants get off the bus.
A caption reads: Perdita Felicien. Olympian & World Champion Hurdler.
Perdita wears a light pink jacket over a grey shirt and dark leggings.
Perdita says, ATHLETES, WELCOME TO THE A.R.C. BATTING CAGES. YOU'RE HERE BECAUSE TO MASTER THE ART OF GOLF YOU NEED A FEW KEY INGREDIENTS. YOU NEED TO FOCUS ON A SINGLE BALL, YOUR TARGET, AND SOMEHOW FIND A WAY TO HAVE THOSE TWO MEET. HAVEN, THIS IS YOUR SPORT, YOU'RE THE EXPERT, WHY DO YOU LIKE THIS APPROACH?
Haven says, WELL, IT MAY BE A BIT DIFFERENT, BECAUSE THE BALL'S COMING AT YOU INSTEAD OF YOU GOING TO THE BALL, BUT IT'S GONNA HELP YOU WORK ON HAND-EYE COORDINATION AND IT'S GONNA HELP WITH THE MOTION WITH YOUR HIPS AND STAYING STRONG THROUGH THE SWING.
Perdita says, ALRIGHT, I LIKE THAT. I THINK WE ALL HAVE OUR WORK CUT OUT FOR US THIS MORNING, SO LET'S GET STARTED.
[Cheering & clapping]
[Music playing]
Children calling, YEAH, FAITH!
Marshall says, CHOKE UP ON THE BAT IF YOU NEED TO.
[Cheering]
Faith is in a batting cage, holding a baseball bat and wearing a helmet. She swings at a ball.
Marshall says, WATCH THE BALL HIT THE BAT.
Faith says, IT'S GONNA SCARE ME.
Marshall says, HANDS TOGETHER.
[Laughing]
Faith swings and hits a ball.
Faith says, WE'RE AT A BATTING CAGE, BUT I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHY.
Jasmine says, YOU GOT CONTACT!
[Cheering]
Haven says, YEAH, YOU WORK ON CONTACT, THEN SWING SPEED.
Michael swings the bat.
[Laughing]
A contestant says, FOUL!
Marshall says, YEAH, LINE DRIVE, OKAY.
Michael says, OW, THAT HIT MY FOOT!
[Laughing]
Brodie hits a ball.
Marshall says, NICE!
Jasmine is in the batting cage.
The others call, JASMINE!
Jasmine says, JASMINE!
A boy says, LIFT YOUR ELBOW A LITTLE BIT.
Jasmine says, OW, THAT HIT MY HAND.
A ball bounces off the bat. A ball gets stuck in a fence.
Jasmine says, I DON'T KNOW, WHERE DID IT GO? OH.
Cayde says, I SUCK AT BASEBALL. I'M SCARED. I DON'T KNOW WHAT FORM
IS IN BASEBALL.
A girl calls, BACK ELBOW UP.
A caption reads: Cayde, Skateboarding, 13
Cayde says, NO, I NEVER PLAYED BASEBALL.
Haven says, JUST TRY TO HIT THE BALL, DON'T DO ANYTHING CRAZY.
Cayde swings and misses.
Haven says, THAT'S ALRIGHT, STAY FOCUSED.
Cayde hits a ball.
Haven says, THERE WE GO.
Cayde says, I HOPE I DO OKAY.
Perdita says, UGH, THAT WAS NICE CONTACT.
[Music playing]
Marshall swings and hits a ball.
Fenella is in the batting cage.
A girl says, OKAY! SHE'S GOING FOR IT.
Haven says, JUST FOCUS ON PLANTING YOUR FEET FOR YOUR STANCE AND TIGHTENING YOUR GRIP. PATIENCE IS KEY.
Marshall says, ARM UP AND IT'S DROPPING YOUR ELBOW, YEAH.
Sydney is in the batting cage.
Faith says, HIT IT.
Sydney misses the ball.
The others call, IT'S ALRIGHT, SYDNEY. IT'S OKAY, TRY AGAIN.
[Sydney laughing]
Sydney says, STOP IT!
[Cheering]
Perdita says, GOOD JOB! YOU GOT THIS. KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE BALL.
Fenella says, OOH, THAT HURT. THAT HURT A LOT.
A caption reads: Fenella, Equestrian, 15
Fenella says, AFTER BATTING MY WRIST GOT A LITTLE SORE, JUST AS I HAVE TO, LIKE, BE ABLE TO SUPPORT THE BAT WITH MY, LIKE, LOWER WRIST AND THAT WAS MY LEFT ONE.
Haven says, DON'T GIVE UP ON YOURSELF, COME ON.
Fenella says, MY ARM BRACE IS CURRENTLY AT MY DORM. I THOUGHT I PACKED IT BUT I FORGOT I DIDN'T. MY MOM'S GONNA BE SO MAD IF SHE SEES THIS.
Perdita says, FENELLA'S NOT THE ONLY ONE FEELING THE STRAIN OF THE BATTING CAGES. MICHAEL'S INJURED ANKLE IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE TROUBLESOME AS THE DAY GOES
ON.
A medic says, STILL NO PAIN?
Michael sits on a bench with his leg stretched out.
Michael says, I DON'T KNOW, IT'S NOT REALLY HURTING, IT'S JUST, LIKE, HURTING WHEN I DO A CERTAIN MOVEMENT. LIKE, I HAD TO TWIST MY ANKLE TO DO THE SWING. I DON'T KNOW, IT DOESN'T REALLY, LIKE, HURT AS MUCH AS IT JUST KIND OF, LIKE, BUGS ME, 'CAUSE MY MOVEMENT'S KIND OF RESTRICTED BECAUSE OF THE SWELLING.
The medic says, ALRIGHT, WELL... IT LOOKS A LITTLE LESS BLUE THAN IT WAS EARLIER, SO... I'VE GOT THIS HERE, SO KEEP THE ICE ON IT.
Michael says, THE MEDIC SAID THAT IT'S NOT BROKEN. I'M STILL JUST KIND OF NERVOUS. I THINK WE'RE JUST GONNA GO GET AN X-RAY.
Sydney and Jasmine carry Michael to the bus.
[Music playing]
The bus travels along a road. The sun sets.
Perdita says, IT'S THE FIRST DAY OF TRAINING AND THE ATHLETES RESORT TO WORK ON THEIR SWING. AFTER GETTING A FEEL FOR THE BASICS AT THE BATTING CAGES YESTERDAY, THE ATHLETES ARE ABOUT TO FIND OUT THAT GOLF MAY NEED A LITTLE MORE THOUGHT AND A LITTLE LESS ACTION. LUCKILY, GOLF EXPERT HAVEN IS HERE TO HELP THEM WITH THAT.
Haven says, AS LONG AS THEY LISTEN, THEY SHOULD BE FINE. I WANT THEM TO ASK QUESTIONS. I DON'T WANT THEM TO, LIKE HURT THEMSELVES OR ANYTHING TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THEY'RE DOING, 'CAUSE, LIKE, I KNOW SOMETIMES IF YOU MAKE THE WRONG MOVE, YOU COULD HURT YOURSELF.
A golf flag has the All-Round Champion logo on it.
Perdita stands next to Haven on a golf course.
Perdita says, ATHLETES, WELCOME TO THE FIRST DAY OF TRAINING. OKAY, HAVEN, AS COACH, WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN STORE FOR YOUR GOLFERS TODAY?
Haven says, TODAY WE'RE GONNA BE WORKING ON CHIPPING, DRIVING AND PUTTING AND WE'RE JUST GONNA BE TRYING TO GET A SWING AND WORK ON THE TECHNIQUE.
Perdita says, AS YOU KNOW, WE ALWAYS BRING IN THE BIG GUNS. ARE YOU READY TO MEET WHO'S GONNA BE COACHING ALONGSIDE HAVEN THIS WEEK?
All the contestants say, YEAH!
Perdita says, GREAT. THIS PRO GOLFER WON THE US WOMEN'S OPEN IN 2016. THAT SAME YEAR SHE REPORTED THE HIGHEST EARNINGS OF ANY AMERICAN PLAYER ON THE LPGA OFFICIAL MONEY LIST. ATHLETES, PLEASE GIVE AN ALL-ROUND WELCOME TO GOLFING SENSATION BRITTANY LANG.
Brittany wears a black golf dress, a white visor and sunglasses. She has long brown hair in a ponytail.
[Applauding]
Perdita says, HI, BRITTANY!
Brittany says, GREAT TO MEET YOU GUYS.
Perdita says, WELCOME!
[Cheering]
Brittany shakes hands with Haven.
Brittany says, HI, HAVEN.
Haven says, HI.
Brittany says, GREAT TO MEET YOU.
Haven says, NICE TO MEET YOU.
Brittany says, HI, GUYS.
The contestants say, HI!
Perdita says, BRITTANY, WE'RE SO EXCITED TO HAVE YOU. THIS IS A MENTAL GAME. FOR YOU, HOW BIG OF A FACTOR IS IT AND FOR THESE GUYS JUST STARTING OUT?
Brittany says, YES, GOLF IS VERY, VERY MENTAL. ESPECIALLY GREAT ATHLETES LIKE THIS, EVERYBODY HAS THAT PHYSICAL TALENT. GOLF IS, I WOULD SAY, AT LEAST 80 TO 90% MENTAL. WHAT YOU BELIEVE YOU CAN ACHIEVE, YOU WILL.
Haven says, MEETING BRITTANY WAS AMAZING. SHE-- SHE'S JUST SO INSPIRATIONAL. BRITTANY'S A ROLE MODEL THAT I JUST WANNA FOLLOW IN HER FOOTSTEPS.
Perdita says, ALRIGHT, THESE GUYS I KNOW ARE UP FOR A CHALLENGE, SO, HAVEN, I GUESS LET'S GET CHIPPING. READY?
[Clapping]
Perdita says, ALRIGHT, LET'S GO.
[Music playing]
Text reads: Golf. Chipping
A caption reads: Sydney, Gymnastics, 14
Sydney says, I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT IT IS, BUT I THINK WE'RE STARTING WITH CHIPPING?
Perdita says, CHIPPING IN GOLF IS A SHOT PLAYED CLOSE TO THE GREEN, USUALLY WITHIN A FEW YARDS OF THE PUTTING SURFACE. THE AIM IS TO CARRY THE BALL ONTO THE GREEN AND TO GET IT ROLLING TOWARDS THE HOLE.
Haven hits a ball with a golf club.
Brittany says, SO, AN IMPORTANT THING TO ALREADY NOTICE IS SHE HAS A GREAT SET-UP, WITH HER FEET TOGETHER AND HER WEIGHT ON HER LEFT, WHICH WILL ALLOW HER TO HIT A NICE, SOLID CONTACT. ALSO, NOTICE HOW SHE CONTINUES TO FOLLOW THROUGH. SHE DOESN'T STOP.
Perdita says, WITH THE DEMO OVER, IT'S TIME FOR THE ATHLETES TO GET SOME ONE-ON-ONE TIME WITH HAVEN.
Sydney holds a golf club.
Haven says, FOR CHIPPING, INSTEAD OF HAVING IT LIKE THIS, 'CAUSE YOU HAVE IT LIKE THAT FOR PUTTING, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE YOUR THUMB UNDER YOUR OTHER... THUMB. MAKE SURE YOU BEND YOUR KNEES.
Brittany says, YEAH, THAT'S A NICE SET-UP.
A ball goes rolling into rough grass.
Brittany says, THAT'S ALRIGHT. IT'S CLOSE TO THE HOLE.
Cayde holds a club.
Haven says, YOUR STANCE IS A BIT TOO WIDE. TAKE A LITTLE STEP WITH THIS FOOT.
Cayde says, UH, IT'D BE A COOL SPORT TO GET BETTER AT BECAUSE PRETTY MUCH EVERYBODY DOES IT. MY PARENTS ALWAYS LOVE GOLFING, SO IF I COULD JUST GO OUT AND ACTUALLY KNOW HOW TO DO GOLF CORRECTLY IT'D BE PRETTY FUN.
Haven says, NO, YOU DON'T WANNA BE ON YOUR BACK FOOT, 'CAUSE THEN IT'S NOT GONNA
HAVE DIRECT CONTACT. YOU WANNA BE ON YOUR FRONT FOOT.
Cayde swings and hits the ball.
Cayde says, THAT WAS HARD.
Brittany says, THAT'S ALRIGHT. DO YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE IN YOUR SET-UP?
Jasmine says, YEAH, KINDA.
Brittany says, OKAY. GOOD ONE. ALWAYS MAKE SURE YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE HOLE.
Haven says, YEAH, TRY TO FIND, LIKE, A LANDING SPOT. THERE'S, LIKE, A CLOCK WITH YOUR SWING. THREE...
Jasmine says, THREE...
Haven says, SIX, NINE. FOR THIS ONE, YOU WANT IT, LIKE, 4:30 TO, LIKE...
Brittany says, THAT'S A GREAT WAY TO LEARN, WITH A CLOCK.
A caption reads: Brittany Lang. US Women’s Open Champion
Brittany says, HAVEN IS DOING EXCELLENT AS A COACH. SHE'S A COOL GIRL, SHE KNOWS HER STUFF, UM, I'VE LEARNED A FEW THINGS FROM HER. IT'S GOOD TO MOVE THE HANDS, LIKE, A WAGGLE, 'CAUSE IT'LL HELP YOU LOOSEN YOUR WRISTS.
Haven says, REMEMBER, SHE SAID WAGGLE. SO, LIKE YOUR WRISTS AREN'T STIFF.
A caption reads: Faith, Kart Racing, 14
Faith says, RIGHT NOW WE'RE DOING CHIPPING AND IT'S KINDA HARD. I HAVEN'T MASTERED IT COMPLETELY. GOLF IS DEFINITELY A VERY LOW, SLOW-PACED SPORT AND I HAVE TO GET USED TO IT. I'M USED TO ALL THE ADRENALINE AND JUST WIND IN MY FACE. BUT IT'S HOT, THE AIR IS STILL, AND IT'S TAKING A LONG TIME.
Faith hits a ball.
Brittany says, THERE YOU GO.
Faith says, I HIT IT.
Haven says, JUST MAKE SURE YOU BRUSH THE GRASS AND KEEP YOUR KNEES BENT.
Fenella swings.
Brittany says, GOOD JOB.
Haven says, IT'S ALRIGHT.
Perdita says, ALSO FEELING THE HEAT IS 13-YEAR-OLD EQUESTRIAN, FENELLA.
A caption reads: Fenella, Equestrian, 13
Fenella says, IT IS SO HOT OUT. I... LIKE, I'M NOT SURE IF I CAN FUNCTION COMPLETELY.
Perdita says, AFTER STRAINING AN OLD INJURY DURING YESTERDAY'S BASIC TRAINING, SHE'S BEEN FORCED TO WEAR HER ARM BRACE.
Fenella says, I JUST WANTED TO TAKE THIS BRACE OFF, BUT I COULDN'T BECAUSE I KNOW IT WOULD HURT MY ARM EVEN MORE.
Fenella hits a ball.
Brittany and Haven say, THERE YOU GO.
Fenella says, I HAVE TO OVERCOME THIS WITHOUT GETTING ANXIOUS OR MAD OR STRESSED OR ANY OF THESE THINGS. I JUST GOTTA BREATHE... AND WORK WITH WHAT I'VE GOT.
Brodie swings.
Brittany says, BRODIE'S GOT THIS DOWN.
Haven says, YEAH.
Brittany says, REALLY NICE.
A caption reads: Brodie, Kayaking, 15
Brodie says, I JUST FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE SHOOTING, LIKE, LEFT-HANDED, EVEN THOUGH I'M RIGHT-HANDED.
Brittany says, OKAY, LET'S SEE EVERYBODY TRY A FEW MORE EACH.
[Music playing]
Singing, I'M IN THE SUN, OH-H-H, YOU KNOW I'M IN THE SUN I'M IN CONTROL
Text reads: Golf. Driving
Haven swings a club.
Perdita says, NEXT UP, IT'S DRIVING. THIS IS A LONG-DISTANCE SHOT, PLAYED FROM THE TEE BOX. THE AIM IS TO MOVE THE BALL AS FAR AS POSSIBLE DOWN THE FAIRWAY TOWARDS THE GREEN. OUR ATHLETES OUR ABOUT TO FIND OUT THAT HAVEN IS... PRETTY GOOD AT IT.
Brittany says, WOO!
The contestants say, THAT'S FAR. SHE'S, LIKE, ONE OF THE BEST IN THE WORLD.
A caption reads: Marshall, BMX, 12
Marshall says, MY RESPECT FOR HAVEN AS AN ATHLETE HAS DEFINITELY RISEN. SHE IS AMAZING AT WHAT SHE DOES AND YOU CAN TELL THAT SHE PUTS HOURS AND HOURS INTO IT.
Brittany says, WOO!
The other contestants say, THAT'S-- IT'S GONE. I CAN'T SEE IT.
Brittany says, THAT'S BECAUSE IT'S REALLY, REALLY FAR.
Haven asks, HOW MUCH WAS THAT?
Brittany says, SHE PROBABLY HIT THAT 250? 260? HAVEN IS VERY STRONG AND VERY ATHLETIC, WHICH IS GREAT TO SEE. SHE HAS A FANTASTIC SWING, VERY SOUND, VERY PURE.
SHE'S STRONG. IF YOU NOTICE HAVEN, SHE HAS A NICE, WIDE STANCE, WHICH GIVES YOU A LOT OF POWER. SHE'S GETTING AIMED EXACTLY TO HER TARGET DOWN THE FAIRWAY HERE. AND A GREAT GOLF SWING AND JUST... SMACKS IT. THAT'S AWESOME.
Daniel says, WHENEVER I WATCHED HAVEN DRIVE IT WAS CRAZY. LIKE, EVERYTHING SEEMED SO PERFECT, BUT EASY.
Daniel puts a ball on a tee.
Haven says, AND YOU'RE GONNA WANT IT, LIKE, HAVE THE BALL COVERED BY THE DRIVER.
Daniel hits the ball with a club.
Brittany says, THAT'S A NICE GOLF SWING. HAVE YOU PLAYED BEFORE?
Daniel says, MM-HM.
Brittany says, YOU'RE HITTING BEHIND IT AND YOU'RE STAYING BACK, THAT'S WHY IT'S GOING SO HIGH.
Daniel says, OKAY.
Brittany says, SO, THE BEST THING FOR YOU TO DO IS TO STAY... ALMOST LIKE THE SAME
AS CHIPPING.
Daniel swings the club.
Daniel says, SO, AS I'M SWINGING FORWARD, TRANSFER MY WEIGHT WITH—
Haven says, YEAH, TRANSFER THE WEIGHT—
Brittany says, TOWARDS THE TARGET. OH, AWESOME.
Daniel hits the ball.
Haven says, GOOD SHOT.
Brittany says, YOU JUST AIMED RIGHT THERE, THAT'S ALL.
[Music playing]
Singing, JUST CAN'T STOP
Daniel bounces the ball on a putter.
Perdita says, ONE PERSON WHO'S NOT FINDING GOLF TO BE A WALK IN THE PARK IS DIVER, MICHAEL. HIS INJURY WAS AGGRAVATING HIM IN YESTERDAY'S BATTING CAGES AND THE PROBLEM HASN'T GONE AWAY.
Michael wears a walking cast on his foot.
Michael says, LAST NIGHT, MY FOOT WAS STILL SWOLLEN, SO WE WENT TO THE HOSPITAL TO GET AN X-RAY. THE DOCTORS THINK THAT IT'S SPRAINED, BUT JUST TO BE SAFE THEY'RE TREATING IT AS A SMALL BREAK.
Michael hits a ball.
Brittany says, ALRIGHT, THERE YOU GO.
[Michael sighing]
Brittany says, THAT'S ALRIGHT.
Michael says, UH, MY BOOT'S REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE TO WEAR BECAUSE, LIKE, ONE LEG IS HIGHER THAN THE OTHER AND IT'S KIND OF, LIKE, THROWING OFF MY BALANCE.
[Groaning]
Haven says, I FEEL LIKE YOU'RE A BIT STIFF. LIKE, DO A WAGGLE.
Brittany says, YEAH, LOOSEN UP A LITTLE BIT.
A caption reads: Jasmine, Swimming, 14
Jasmine says, SO, WITH DRIVING, SITTING ON THE CHAIRS, I WAS ACTUALLY QUITE SCARED TO THINK I'M PROBABLY GONNA MISS THE BALL EVERY TIME.
Haven adjusts Jasmine’s hold on a club.
Haven says, ARM STRAIGHT, YEAH. YOU WANNA MAKE AN L. THESE ARE THE LETTERS YOU NEED TO MAKE. YOU NEED TO GO FROM Y, L, AND THEN FINISH WITH THE O.
Jasmine hits a ball.
Brittany says, THERE YOU GO! GREAT SHOT.
[Jasmine cheering]
Jasmine says, DID I ACTUALLY DO THAT?!
Brittany says, THAT-- THAT'S ALMOST 100 YARDS. THAT IS AWESOME.
Jasmine says, I'M QUITE HAPPY. IT'S JUST, DRIVING IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS WHERE IF YOU GET IT DONE ONCE YOU CAN DO IT AGAIN.
Marshall hits a ball.
Brittany says, OOH, NICE! YOU PROBABLY HIT THAT 100 YARDS.
Cayde holds a club.
Cayde asks, OKAY, SHOULD I JUST GO FOR IT?
Brittany says, YEAH, GO FOR IT. SMACK IT. OOH! GREAT SHOT! HE'S NOT VERY BIG, BUT HE HITS IT A LONG WAY. WHICH, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE BIG TO HIT THE BALL FAR.
EVERYTHING FIRES WHEN HE HITS, 'CAUSE HE'S ATHLETIC, WHICH IS REALLY COOL TO SEE. THAT WENT VERY FAR. AWESOME, CAYDE.
Marshall says, MY MAIN COMPETITORS ARE DEFINITELY CAYDE AND DANIEL. UM, BOTH OF THEM LOOKED VERY, VERY STRONG IN, UM, AT LEAST THE DRIVING SECTION.
Perdita says, BUT IN SPITE OF MARSHALL'S EARLY PREDICTIONS, IT'S PRETTY APPARENT THAT KEEPING CONSISTENT IN GOLF IS GOING TO BE A CHALLENGE.
Cayde swings.
Cayde says, OOH!
Haven says, IT'S ALRIGHT, YOU JUST HIT THE TEE.
Fenella holds a club.
Fenella says, I THINK I'M GONNA MISS IT.
Brittany says, says, WELL, IF YOU THINK YOU'RE GONNA MISS IT YOU'RE GONNA MISS IT.
DON'T FORGET TO LOOK AT THE BALL.
Contestants swing at balls.
[Laughing]
[Giggling]
Fenella says, I DON'T KNOW WHY—
Brittany says, THAT ONE WENT ONE FOOT.
Jasmine says, OH, I MISSED THAT.
Brittany says, THAT'S OKAY.
Marshall says, OH MY GOSH, I MISSED IT.
Haven says, IT'S ALRIGHT, SLOW DOWN.
[Music playing]
Daniel says, YO, FOUR FEET?
[Crowd clapping & cheering]
[Music playing]
Fenella says, I DEFINITELY SURPRISED MYSELF TODAY AS I STARTED OFF NOT ENTIRELY ABLE TO DO ALL THE THINGS. ESPECIALLY WITH DRIVING, I KEPT MISSING THE, UH, THE BALL AND TEE
AND THEN TOWARDS THE END OF THE DAY I... ENDED UP GETTING SO GOOD AT IT.
Perdita asks, BRITTANY, HAVE YOU MADE GOLFERS OUT OF THEM?
Daniel swings.
Brittany says, LOOK AT THIS GUY. SMACKING IT.
Perdita says, OH, DANIEL, WAS THAT YOU?
Brittany says, JASMINE HIT ONE 125 YARDS.
Perdita says, WHAT?
Jasmine says, I ALSO GOT CHIPPING DOWN AT LUNCH.
Brittany says, SHE'S GOT THE WORK ETHIC DOWN.
Text reds: Golf. Putting
Perdita says, PUTTING IS A STROKE MADE ON THE GREEN THAT CAUSES THE BALL TO ROLL INTO THE HOLE. THE KEY SKILL HERE IS DISTANCE CONTROL NOT HITTING IT. AND GUESS WHAT, ATHLETES? YEAH, HAVEN'S PRETTY GOOD AT THIS TOO.
Haven stands with Michael. They both hold clubs.
Haven says, STICK YOUR ARMS OUT LIKE THIS. PUSH IT INTO YOUR RIBS AND GO DOWN. YOU HAVE [INDISTINCT] CONTROL WITH SPEED...
Michael says, YEAH.
Haven says, ...SO, THAT'S WHAT YOU GUYS REALLY NEED TO WORK ON.
Jasmine hits a ball.
Haven says, OKAY, NOT THAT HARD. OKAY.
Jasmine says, TOO HARD.
Michael puts a ball. It goes over the hole.
Michael says, OH!
Haven says, JUST RIMMED OUT. THAT'S ALRIGHT, THOUGH.
Michael says, THAT MUST SUCK IF YOU DO THAT IN, LIKE, A COMPETITION.
Haven says, I'VE DONE THAT MANY TIMES.
[Music playing]
Marshall putts the ball into the hole.
Haven says, SEE?
Marshall says, MAYBE I SHOULD TRY LISTENING TO PEOPLE. MAYBE THAT WOULD WORK.
Haven says, SLOW DOWN. JUST SLOW DOWN, 'CAUSE I SEE YOU, LIKE, JUST RUSHING AND I DON'T WANT YOU TO FRUSTRATE YOURSELF EVEN MORE.
Marshall says, SHE'S BLOSSOMING AS A COACH RIGHT NOW, UM, SHE'S DOING VERY WELL,
VERY RELATABLE. I HAVEN'T SAID THIS YET, BUT SHE IS AMAZING. SHE IS AMAZING AT WHAT SHE DOES.
[Music playing]
Faith putts.
Haven says, THIS IS GONNA BE A HARD PUTT 'CAUSE THIS IS A REALLY HARD BREAK.
Perdita says, THE BREAK IS THE AMOUNT A PUTT MOVES FROM SIDE TO SIDE ON THE GREEN AND CAN BE AFFECTED BY THE SLOPE OF THE GRASS ON THE GREEN.
Brittany says, FOR INSTANCE, LIKE, IF YOU WERE TO POUR A BUCKET OF WATER ON THIS GREEN WHICH WAY WOULD IT GO?
Brodie says, THAT WAY.
Brittany says, OKAY, PERFECT. SO, THAT MEANS YOUR BALL'S GONNA BREAK THAT WAY.
A caption reads: Brodie, Kayaking, 15
Brodie says, A LOT OF TECHNIQUE IS IN WITH THIS SPORT. LIKE, YOU DON'T NEED EXPLOSIVE POWER, YOU JUST NEED TO HIT THE BALL IN THE RIGHT SPOT AND IT'LL GO WHERE YOU WANT IT.
Brittany says, SO, ONE OTHER THING TOO I'M GONNA SHOW YOU... I'M GONNA SHOW YOU
THE LINE ON THE BALL.
Haven bends down and picks up a ball.
Haven says, ALSO, THERE'S THESE LINES ON THE BALL WHERE YOU CAN AIM IT TO A CERTAIN AREA.
Brittany says, SO, YOU NEED TO USE THIS LINE, 'CAUSE YOU'RE AIMING NOT WELL. SO, SET UP TO THAT LINE NOW. GOOD JOB, GIRL.
Jasmine says, OKAY. YEAH, THAT IS EASIER WITH, KIND OF, THE LINING.
Brittany says, IT IS. IT WILL HELP YOU.
Sydney putts.
Brittany says, THAT'S A GOOD STROKE. GOOD JOB, GIRL. THAT'S AWESOME. I THINK SYDNEY HAS THIS DOWN.
A caption reads: Sydney, Gymnastics, 14
Sydney says, I THINK THAT PUTTING IS DEFINITELY MY STRENGTH AND I GOT A BUNCH OF THE BALLS IN THE HOLE, SO I THINK THAT I'M REALLY GOOD AT PUTTING.
Fenella putts.
Brittany and Perdita face the contestants.
Brittany says, OKAY, GOOD JOB WITH THE PUTTING, GUYS. GOOD PROGRESS. NOW, WE'RE GONNA DO A LITTLE BIT OF A MENTAL TEST.
Perdita says, EACH OF YOU IS GONNA GET A CHANCE TO PUTT AND THE REST OF US ARE GOING TO DISTRACT YOU. MARSHALL, YOU'RE UP FIRST. LET'S GET TO DISTRACTING.
[Tambourine rattling]
The other contestants yell and shake maracas.
Perdita says, THIS GAME IS ALL ABOUT MENTAL STRENGTH AND THIS CHALLENGE IS ABOUT
GETTING THE ATHLETES TO CONCENTRATE ON EVERY SHOT, NO MATTER WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE BACKGROUND.
[Cacophony of yelling]
Contestants try to putt.
[Shouting]
Cayde says, THAT LOOKS HARD.
Brittany says, LIFT YOUR HANDS! WOO! GOOD JOB, BUDDY! GOOD JOB, CAYDE.
Cayde dances.
Perdita, Haven and Brittany face the other contestants.
Perdita says, THAT'S THE END OF TRAINING FOR TODAY. I THINK I CAN SLOWLY SEE THE TRANSFORMATION, BUT I'M NOT EXACTLY THE EXPERT HERE. HAVEN, SOLID FIRST DAY? WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Haven says, YEAH, I THINK YOU GUYS DID PRETTY WELL FOR YOUR FIRST DAY. I'M-- I MEAN, YOU WERE LISTENING TODAY.
Perdita says, ALRIGHT, BRITTANY, WHAT DO YOU THINK? DO YOU LIKE WHAT YOU SEE TODAY?
Brittany says, I DO. I ENJOYED WORKING WITH HAVEN, SHE'S EXACTLY RIGHT. I LIKED WHAT I SAW, I LOVED THE DRIVING AND I THINK EVERYBODY IS GETTING BETTER.
Perdita says, TOMORROW'S GOING TO BE MORE CHALLENGING, SO GO HOME, GET SOME SLEEP, BE READY TO GOLF BRIGHT AND EARLY.
[Cheering]
Marshall says, TODAY WAS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE DAYS SO FAR. EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE TO STAY FOCUSED, IT'S NOT AS GRUELLING ON YOUR BODY.
Perdita says, BUT FOR AT LEAST ONE OF OUR ATHLETES, GOLF HAS BEEN A REAL PHYSICAL CHALLENGE.
Haven says, MICHAEL'S IN A BOOT RIGHT NOW AND HE'S A LITTLE UPSET AND DISAPPOINTED.
Michael sits with a laptop computer.
Perdita says, SO, MICHAEL CALLS HIS MOM IN CALIFORNIA FOR A LITTLE MORE ENCOURAGEMENT.
Michael’s Mom is on the computer screen.
Mom asks, HOW YOU DOING?
Michael says, PRETTY GOOD.
A caption reads: Alicia, Michael’s Mom
Alicia asks, HOW WAS GETTING USED TO THE BOOT TODAY?
Michael says, IT WAS KIND OF DIFFICULT AT FIRST, BUT THEN I GOT USED TO IT.
Alicia says, I COULD UNDERSTAND HOW DIFFICULT THAT IS FOR YOU. I HAVE A FEELING SINCE YOU CAN-- YOU CAN DIVE OFF 10-METRE WHEN YOU'RE SICK, I THINK YOU CAN HANDLE THIS, YOU KNOW?

Haven is on the bus.
Haven says, BRODIE, YOU DID REALLY WELL, 'CAUSE, LIKE, NONE OF US KNEW THAT YOU WERE A LEFTY. LIKE, THAT WAS KIND OF A CHALLENGE AND THEN, LIKE, NONE OF US ARE LEFTIES, SO IT'S GONNA BE HARD TO TEACH A LEFTY.

Perdita asks, YEAH?
Haven says, I THINK THEY CAN DO IT.
Cayde says, WAIT, WHY DOES IT START TODAY?
Brittany says, THEY WERE PRETTY SHOCKED TO GET THAT CURVEBALL ABOUT HAVING THE COMPETITION NOW, BUT I THINK THEY'RE GONNA DO FINE. I THINK THEY'RE A LITTLE SCARED RIGHT NOW, BUT, YOU KNOW, I THINK THEY'VE LEARNED EVERYTHING THEY NEED TO DO AND WE NEED TO JUST JUMP IN THERE.

Perdita says, ATHLETES, WELCOME TO THE A.R.C. BATTING CAGES. YOU'RE HERE BECAUSE TO MASTER THE ART OF GOLF YOU NEED A FEW KEY INGREDIENTS. YOU NEED TO FOCUS ON A SINGLE BALL, YOUR TARGET, AND SOMEHOW FIND A WAY TO HAVE THOSE TWO MEET. HAVEN, THIS IS YOUR SPORT, YOU'RE THE EXPERT, WHY DO YOU LIKE THIS APPROACH?
Haven says, WELL, IT MAY BE A BIT DIFFERENT, BECAUSE THE BALL'S COMING AT YOU INSTEAD OF YOU GOING TO THE BALL, BUT IT'S GONNA HELP YOU WORK ON HAND-EYE COORDINATION AND IT'S GONNA HELP WITH THE MOTION WITH YOUR HIPS AND STAYING STRONG THROUGH THE SWING.
Perdita says, ALRIGHT, I LIKE THAT. I THINK WE ALL HAVE OUR WORK CUT OUT FOR US THIS MORNING, SO LET'S GET STARTED.
[Cheering & clapping]

ON.
A medic says, STILL NO PAIN?
Michael sits on a bench with his leg stretched out.
Michael says, I DON'T KNOW, IT'S NOT REALLY HURTING, IT'S JUST, LIKE, HURTING WHEN I DO A CERTAIN MOVEMENT. LIKE, I HAD TO TWIST MY ANKLE TO DO THE SWING. I DON'T KNOW, IT DOESN'T REALLY, LIKE, HURT AS MUCH AS IT JUST KIND OF, LIKE, BUGS ME, 'CAUSE MY MOVEMENT'S KIND OF RESTRICTED BECAUSE OF THE SWELLING.
The medic says, ALRIGHT, WELL... IT LOOKS A LITTLE LESS BLUE THAN IT WAS EARLIER, SO... I'VE GOT THIS HERE, SO KEEP THE ICE ON IT.
Michael says, THE MEDIC SAID THAT IT'S NOT BROKEN. I'M STILL JUST KIND OF NERVOUS. I THINK WE'RE JUST GONNA GO GET AN X-RAY.

AFTER GETTING A FEEL FOR THE BASICS AT THE BATTING CAGES YESTERDAY, THE ATHLETES ARE ABOUT TO FIND OUT THAT GOLF MAY NEED A LITTLE MORE THOUGHT AND A LITTLE LESS ACTION. LUCKILY, GOLF EXPERT HAVEN IS HERE TO HELP THEM WITH THAT.
Haven says, AS LONG AS THEY LISTEN, THEY SHOULD BE FINE. I WANT THEM TO ASK QUESTIONS. I DON'T WANT THEM TO, LIKE HURT THEMSELVES OR ANYTHING TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THEY'RE DOING, 'CAUSE, LIKE, I KNOW SOMETIMES IF YOU MAKE THE WRONG MOVE, YOU COULD HURT YOURSELF.
A golf flag has the All-Round Champion logo on it.
Perdita stands next to Haven on a golf course.
Perdita says, ATHLETES, WELCOME TO THE FIRST DAY OF TRAINING. OKAY, HAVEN, AS COACH, WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN STORE FOR YOUR GOLFERS TODAY?

Brittany says, YES, GOLF IS VERY, VERY MENTAL. ESPECIALLY GREAT ATHLETES LIKE THIS, EVERYBODY HAS THAT PHYSICAL TALENT. GOLF IS, I WOULD SAY, AT LEAST 80 TO 90% MENTAL. WHAT YOU BELIEVE YOU CAN ACHIEVE, YOU WILL.
Haven says, MEETING BRITTANY WAS AMAZING. SHE-- SHE'S JUST SO INSPIRATIONAL. BRITTANY'S A ROLE MODEL THAT I JUST WANNA FOLLOW IN HER FOOTSTEPS.

Sydney says, I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT IT IS, BUT I THINK WE'RE STARTING WITH CHIPPING?
Perdita says, CHIPPING IN GOLF IS A SHOT PLAYED CLOSE TO THE GREEN, USUALLY WITHIN A FEW YARDS OF THE PUTTING SURFACE. THE AIM IS TO CARRY THE BALL ONTO THE GREEN AND TO GET IT ROLLING TOWARDS THE HOLE.
Haven hits a ball with a golf club.
Brittany says, SO, AN IMPORTANT THING TO ALREADY NOTICE IS SHE HAS A GREAT SET-UP, WITH HER FEET TOGETHER AND HER WEIGHT ON HER LEFT, WHICH WILL ALLOW HER TO HIT A NICE, SOLID CONTACT. ALSO, NOTICE HOW SHE CONTINUES TO FOLLOW THROUGH. SHE DOESN'T STOP.
Perdita says, WITH THE DEMO OVER, IT'S TIME FOR THE ATHLETES TO GET SOME ONE-ON-ONE TIME WITH HAVEN.
Sydney holds a golf club.
Haven says, FOR CHIPPING, INSTEAD OF HAVING IT LIKE THIS, 'CAUSE YOU HAVE IT LIKE THAT FOR PUTTING, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE YOUR THUMB UNDER YOUR OTHER... THUMB. MAKE SURE YOU BEND YOUR KNEES.
Brittany says, YEAH, THAT'S A NICE SET-UP.
A ball goes rolling into rough grass.
Brittany says, THAT'S ALRIGHT. IT'S CLOSE TO THE HOLE.
Cayde holds a club.
Haven says, YOUR STANCE IS A BIT TOO WIDE. TAKE A LITTLE STEP WITH THIS FOOT.
Cayde says, UH, IT'D BE A COOL SPORT TO GET BETTER AT BECAUSE PRETTY MUCH EVERYBODY DOES IT. MY PARENTS ALWAYS LOVE GOLFING, SO IF I COULD JUST GO OUT AND ACTUALLY KNOW HOW TO DO GOLF CORRECTLY IT'D BE PRETTY FUN.
Haven says, NO, YOU DON'T WANNA BE ON YOUR BACK FOOT, 'CAUSE THEN IT'S NOT GONNA
HAVE DIRECT CONTACT. YOU WANNA BE ON YOUR FRONT FOOT.
Cayde swings and hits the ball.
Cayde says, THAT WAS HARD.
Brittany says, THAT'S ALRIGHT. DO YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE IN YOUR SET-UP?
Jasmine says, YEAH, KINDA.
Brittany says, OKAY. GOOD ONE. ALWAYS MAKE SURE YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE HOLE.
Haven says, YEAH, TRY TO FIND, LIKE, A LANDING SPOT. THERE'S, LIKE, A CLOCK WITH YOUR SWING. THREE...
Jasmine says, THREE...
Haven says, SIX, NINE. FOR THIS ONE, YOU WANT IT, LIKE, 4:30 TO, LIKE...

Brittany says, HAVEN IS DOING EXCELLENT AS A COACH. SHE'S A COOL GIRL, SHE KNOWS HER STUFF, UM, I'VE LEARNED A FEW THINGS FROM HER. IT'S GOOD TO MOVE THE HANDS, LIKE, A WAGGLE, 'CAUSE IT'LL HELP YOU LOOSEN YOUR WRISTS.
Haven says, REMEMBER, SHE SAID WAGGLE. SO, LIKE YOUR WRISTS AREN'T STIFF.
A caption reads: Faith, Kart Racing, 14
Faith says, RIGHT NOW WE'RE DOING CHIPPING AND IT'S KINDA HARD. I HAVEN'T MASTERED IT COMPLETELY. GOLF IS DEFINITELY A VERY LOW, SLOW-PACED SPORT AND I HAVE TO GET USED TO IT. I'M USED TO ALL THE ADRENALINE AND JUST WIND IN MY FACE. BUT IT'S HOT, THE AIR IS STILL, AND IT'S TAKING A LONG TIME.
Faith hits a ball.
Brittany says, THERE YOU GO.
Faith says, I HIT IT.
Haven says, JUST MAKE SURE YOU BRUSH THE GRASS AND KEEP YOUR KNEES BENT.

Perdita says, AFTER STRAINING AN OLD INJURY DURING YESTERDAY'S BASIC TRAINING, SHE'S BEEN FORCED TO WEAR HER ARM BRACE.
Fenella says, I JUST WANTED TO TAKE THIS BRACE OFF, BUT I COULDN'T BECAUSE I KNOW IT WOULD HURT MY ARM EVEN MORE.
Fenella hits a ball.
Brittany and Haven say, THERE YOU GO.
Fenella says, I HAVE TO OVERCOME THIS WITHOUT GETTING ANXIOUS OR MAD OR STRESSED OR ANY OF THESE THINGS. I JUST GOTTA BREATHE... AND WORK WITH WHAT I'VE GOT.
Brodie swings.
Brittany says, BRODIE'S GOT THIS DOWN.
Haven says, YEAH.
Brittany says, REALLY NICE.
A caption reads: Brodie, Kayaking, 15

Brittany says, WOO!
The contestants say, THAT'S FAR. SHE'S, LIKE, ONE OF THE BEST IN THE WORLD.

Brittany says, WOO!
The other contestants say, THAT'S-- IT'S GONE. I CAN'T SEE IT.
Brittany says, THAT'S BECAUSE IT'S REALLY, REALLY FAR.
Haven asks, HOW MUCH WAS THAT?
Brittany says, SHE PROBABLY HIT THAT 250? 260? HAVEN IS VERY STRONG AND VERY ATHLETIC, WHICH IS GREAT TO SEE. SHE HAS A FANTASTIC SWING, VERY SOUND, VERY PURE.
SHE'S STRONG. IF YOU NOTICE HAVEN, SHE HAS A NICE, WIDE STANCE, WHICH GIVES YOU A LOT OF POWER. SHE'S GETTING AIMED EXACTLY TO HER TARGET DOWN THE FAIRWAY HERE. AND A GREAT GOLF SWING AND JUST... SMACKS IT. THAT'S AWESOME.
Daniel says, WHENEVER I WATCHED HAVEN DRIVE IT WAS CRAZY. LIKE, EVERYTHING SEEMED SO PERFECT, BUT EASY.
Daniel puts a ball on a tee.
Haven says, AND YOU'RE GONNA WANT IT, LIKE, HAVE THE BALL COVERED BY THE DRIVER.
Daniel hits the ball with a club.
Brittany says, THAT'S A NICE GOLF SWING. HAVE YOU PLAYED BEFORE?
Daniel says, MM-HM.
Brittany says, YOU'RE HITTING BEHIND IT AND YOU'RE STAYING BACK, THAT'S WHY IT'S GOING SO HIGH.
Daniel says, OKAY.
Brittany says, SO, THE BEST THING FOR YOU TO DO IS TO STAY... ALMOST LIKE THE SAME
AS CHIPPING.
Daniel swings the club.
Daniel says, SO, AS I'M SWINGING FORWARD, TRANSFER MY WEIGHT WITH—
Haven says, YEAH, TRANSFER THE WEIGHT—
Brittany says, TOWARDS THE TARGET. OH, AWESOME.

Singing, JUST CAN'T STOP
Daniel bounces the ball on a putter.
Perdita says, ONE PERSON WHO'S NOT FINDING GOLF TO BE A WALK IN THE PARK IS DIVER, MICHAEL. HIS INJURY WAS AGGRAVATING HIM IN YESTERDAY'S BATTING CAGES AND THE PROBLEM HASN'T GONE AWAY.
Michael wears a walking cast on his foot.
Michael says, LAST NIGHT, MY FOOT WAS STILL SWOLLEN, SO WE WENT TO THE HOSPITAL TO GET AN X-RAY. THE DOCTORS THINK THAT IT'S SPRAINED, BUT JUST TO BE SAFE THEY'RE TREATING IT AS A SMALL BREAK.
Michael hits a ball.
Brittany says, ALRIGHT, THERE YOU GO.
[Michael sighing]
Brittany says, THAT'S ALRIGHT.
Michael says, UH, MY BOOT'S REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE TO WEAR BECAUSE, LIKE, ONE LEG IS HIGHER THAN THE OTHER AND IT'S KIND OF, LIKE, THROWING OFF MY BALANCE.
[Groaning]
Haven says, I FEEL LIKE YOU'RE A BIT STIFF. LIKE, DO A WAGGLE.
Brittany says, YEAH, LOOSEN UP A LITTLE BIT.

Jasmine hits a ball.
Brittany says, THERE YOU GO! GREAT SHOT.
[Jasmine cheering]
Jasmine says, DID I ACTUALLY DO THAT?!
Brittany says, THAT-- THAT'S ALMOST 100 YARDS. THAT IS AWESOME.
Jasmine says, I'M QUITE HAPPY. IT'S JUST, DRIVING IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS WHERE IF YOU GET IT DONE ONCE YOU CAN DO IT AGAIN.
Marshall hits a ball.
Brittany says, OOH, NICE! YOU PROBABLY HIT THAT 100 YARDS.
Cayde holds a club.
Cayde asks, OKAY, SHOULD I JUST GO FOR IT?
Brittany says, YEAH, GO FOR IT. SMACK IT. OOH! GREAT SHOT! HE'S NOT VERY BIG, BUT HE HITS IT A LONG WAY. WHICH, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE BIG TO HIT THE BALL FAR.
EVERYTHING FIRES WHEN HE HITS, 'CAUSE HE'S ATHLETIC, WHICH IS REALLY COOL TO SEE. THAT WENT VERY FAR. AWESOME, CAYDE.
Marshall says, MY MAIN COMPETITORS ARE DEFINITELY CAYDE AND DANIEL. UM, BOTH OF THEM LOOKED VERY, VERY STRONG IN, UM, AT LEAST THE DRIVING SECTION.
Perdita says, BUT IN SPITE OF MARSHALL'S EARLY PREDICTIONS, IT'S PRETTY APPARENT THAT KEEPING CONSISTENT IN GOLF IS GOING TO BE A CHALLENGE.

Cayde says, OOH!
Haven says, IT'S ALRIGHT, YOU JUST HIT THE TEE.

Fenella says, I DEFINITELY SURPRISED MYSELF TODAY AS I STARTED OFF NOT ENTIRELY ABLE TO DO ALL THE THINGS. ESPECIALLY WITH DRIVING, I KEPT MISSING THE, UH, THE BALL AND TEE
AND THEN TOWARDS THE END OF THE DAY I... ENDED UP GETTING SO GOOD AT IT.

Brittany says, SHE'S GOT THE WORK ETHIC DOWN.
Text reds: Golf. Putting
Perdita says, PUTTING IS A STROKE MADE ON THE GREEN THAT CAUSES THE BALL TO ROLL INTO THE HOLE. THE KEY SKILL HERE IS DISTANCE CONTROL NOT HITTING IT. AND GUESS WHAT, ATHLETES? YEAH, HAVEN'S PRETTY GOOD AT THIS TOO.
Haven stands with Michael. They both hold clubs.

Marshall putts the ball into the hole.
Haven says, SEE?
Marshall says, MAYBE I SHOULD TRY LISTENING TO PEOPLE. MAYBE THAT WOULD WORK.

Marshall says, SHE'S BLOSSOMING AS A COACH RIGHT NOW, UM, SHE'S DOING VERY WELL,
VERY RELATABLE. I HAVEN'T SAID THIS YET, BUT SHE IS AMAZING. SHE IS AMAZING AT WHAT SHE DOES.
[Music playing]
Faith putts.
Haven says, THIS IS GONNA BE A HARD PUTT 'CAUSE THIS IS A REALLY HARD BREAK.
Perdita says, THE BREAK IS THE AMOUNT A PUTT MOVES FROM SIDE TO SIDE ON THE GREEN AND CAN BE AFFECTED BY THE SLOPE OF THE GRASS ON THE GREEN.
Brittany says, FOR INSTANCE, LIKE, IF YOU WERE TO POUR A BUCKET OF WATER ON THIS GREEN WHICH WAY WOULD IT GO?
Brodie says, THAT WAY.
Brittany says, OKAY, PERFECT. SO, THAT MEANS YOUR BALL'S GONNA BREAK THAT WAY.
A caption reads: Brodie, Kayaking, 15
Brodie says, A LOT OF TECHNIQUE IS IN WITH THIS SPORT. LIKE, YOU DON'T NEED EXPLOSIVE POWER, YOU JUST NEED TO HIT THE BALL IN THE RIGHT SPOT AND IT'LL GO WHERE YOU WANT IT.
Brittany says, SO, ONE OTHER THING TOO I'M GONNA SHOW YOU... I'M GONNA SHOW YOU
THE LINE ON THE BALL.
Haven bends down and picks up a ball.
Haven says, ALSO, THERE'S THESE LINES ON THE BALL WHERE YOU CAN AIM IT TO A CERTAIN AREA.
Brittany says, SO, YOU NEED TO USE THIS LINE, 'CAUSE YOU'RE AIMING NOT WELL. SO, SET UP TO THAT LINE NOW. GOOD JOB, GIRL.
Jasmine says, OKAY. YEAH, THAT IS EASIER WITH, KIND OF, THE LINING.
Brittany says, IT IS. IT WILL HELP YOU.

[Tambourine rattling]
The other contestants yell and shake maracas.
Perdita says, THIS GAME IS ALL ABOUT MENTAL STRENGTH AND THIS CHALLENGE IS ABOUT
GETTING THE ATHLETES TO CONCENTRATE ON EVERY SHOT, NO MATTER WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE BACKGROUND.

Haven says, YEAH, I THINK YOU GUYS DID PRETTY WELL FOR YOUR FIRST DAY. I'M-- I MEAN, YOU WERE LISTENING TODAY.
Perdita says, ALRIGHT, BRITTANY, WHAT DO YOU THINK? DO YOU LIKE WHAT YOU SEE TODAY?
Brittany says, I DO. I ENJOYED WORKING WITH HAVEN, SHE'S EXACTLY RIGHT. I LIKED WHAT I SAW, I LOVED THE DRIVING AND I THINK EVERYBODY IS GETTING BETTER.
Perdita says, TOMORROW'S GOING TO BE MORE CHALLENGING, SO GO HOME, GET SOME SLEEP, BE READY TO GOLF BRIGHT AND EARLY.
[Cheering]
Marshall says, TODAY WAS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE DAYS SO FAR. EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE TO STAY FOCUSED, IT'S NOT AS GRUELLING ON YOUR BODY.
Perdita says, BUT FOR AT LEAST ONE OF OUR ATHLETES, GOLF HAS BEEN A REAL PHYSICAL CHALLENGE.
Haven says, MICHAEL'S IN A BOOT RIGHT NOW AND HE'S A LITTLE UPSET AND DISAPPOINTED.
Michael sits with a laptop computer.
Perdita says, SO, MICHAEL CALLS HIS MOM IN CALIFORNIA FOR A LITTLE MORE ENCOURAGEMENT.
Michael’s Mom is on the computer screen.
Mom asks, HOW YOU DOING?
Michael says, PRETTY GOOD.
A caption reads: Alicia, Michael’s Mom
Alicia asks, HOW WAS GETTING USED TO THE BOOT TODAY?
Michael says, IT WAS KIND OF DIFFICULT AT FIRST, BUT THEN I GOT USED TO IT.
Alicia says, I COULD UNDERSTAND HOW DIFFICULT THAT IS FOR YOU. I HAVE A FEELING SINCE YOU CAN-- YOU CAN DIVE OFF 10-METRE WHEN YOU'RE SICK, I THINK YOU CAN HANDLE THIS, YOU KNOW? BUT YOU KNOW WHAT, BABE? I AM SUPER PROUD OF YOU. YOU WERE AT THE HOSPITAL UNTIL SUPER LATE, YOU DIDN'T GET A LOT OF SLEEP. I'M JUST SO PROUD OF YOUR ATTITUDE.
Michael says, THANKS.
Alicia says, IF YOU KEEP UP THAT KIND OF AN ATTITUDE, I KNOW YOU'RE GONNA DO
FABULOUS.
[Music playing]

Haven says, I WANT EVERYONE TO DO EQUALLY WELL, SO I'M GONNA TELL THEM ALL THE SAME THING, I'M GONNA LET THEM KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING WRONG, BUT IT'S UP TO THEM, MAINLY, LIKE, JUST TO DO IT THEMSELVES 'CAUSE I CAN'T SWING THE CLUB FOR THEM.
Haven is on the bus.
Haven says, BRODIE, YOU DID REALLY WELL, 'CAUSE, LIKE, NONE OF US KNEW THAT YOU WERE A LEFTY. LIKE, THAT WAS KIND OF A CHALLENGE AND THEN, LIKE, NONE OF US ARE LEFTIES, SO IT'S GONNA BE HARD TO TEACH A LEFTY.
Cayde asks, SO, HOW MUCH DO YOU TRAIN A DAY?
Haven says, UM, DURING THE SUMMER I TRAIN SIX HOURS A DAY... EVERY DAY. AND THEN ON THE WEEKENDS I TRAIN SIX.
[Music playing]
The children get off the bus.
Perdita says, FOR TODAY'S TRAINING SESSIONS, HAVEN AND BRITTANY WANNA SEE THE ATHLETES APPLY THE SKILLS THEY LEARNED YESTERDAY TO PLAY AN ACTUAL HOLE OF GOLF. SO, YOUR COACHES HAVEN AND BRITTANY SAID YESTERDAY WAS A BRILLIANT FIRST DAY, BUT TODAY IS ALL ABOUT BUILDING ON THE SKILLS THAT YOU ALREADY KNOW SO THAT YOU'RE READY FOR WHATEVER THE COMPETITION THROWS YOUR WAY.
