Fred's impact sound is one of the sweetest sounds I've ever heard.

It probably is, but you know that the tv production is faking impact sounds 60-70% of the time, when there mics don't get near enough. Especially when they are filming putts 30-40y across the green, but also on full shots.

If only PGA tour highlights could be like this.
Played a round with Freddie 40 years ago at Jackson near Seattle and shot a respectable 77. Freddie had a 62 and missed a couple 10 footers. Quite the experience
Best swing in the game including the young guys….and he’s 63! Just look at these swings. So fluid, balanced, relaxed, and powerful
Was there today. The cup must have looked like it was the size of a basketball goal. He was amazing. So glad it was here in North Kackylacky that Fred will remember the round of his life....and thats saying something. Good on yea sir! Much to appreciate for a very long time.

Opps, another one of those Telegram scammers. Watch out. Yes, I noticed he is slender. Still the potbelly, but that is aging. Weren't for the loose slacks, you couldn't tell. He ages so gracefully. So Fred Couples.
Never get tired of watching Fred’s swing winning or losing. Unique
SMOOTH LIKE BUTTER 🐐🐐🐐
The guy should've been an artist with a touch like that....oh wait, he is. Best swing of all time. 🐐

1st thing he does is thank his caddie. Good drills, what a gent. What a swing. I just love the impact moment he has with a wedge. And the sound. So pure. Cheers Freddy!

Sam Snead, Seve and Freddy had the smoothest swings of my lifetime, absolutely effortless!
My all time favourite golfer. I still remember that back 9 at the 1992 Masters.
It's been a long wait for this win. Happy for Freddie. Hopefully this sparks him and he see's more wins this season and maybe even a run at the championship. Great golfer and equally good person.
Loved following him around the course during the BUICK CLASSIC every time he showed up. One of the most stand up guys on and off the tour. A true living legend.
We all love Fred, does his job with a smile and has done for decades. Thank you

Sweet swingin' Fred Couples ,could watch him all day .
What a legend, most beautiful swing in the game.
You looked like you did in the late 80's, so great to see my favourite player of all time do this. Congrats Fred, I met you years ago in Santa Barbara, I was coaching a blind golfer Brian MacLeod. Keep on shooting your age until you hit 70.
That round was absolutely ridiculous. He couldn’t miss with the putter
Fred is one of the most likable guys to ever play professional golf. I always rooted for him.
Freddy is a class act on and off the course. I’ve had the pleasure the chat with him off the course and he’s as nice a guy you’d ever want to be around.
Legend has it he's still there making birdies to this day...
Love to see Fred and Ernie in the same group. Will be a treat to all fans
So happy for you Freddie ❤️⛳️
7:25 ha! I see myself in the camera shot moving on with the Fred Couples crowd to the next hole.
Freddie has always been one of my favorites. What a great player and ambassador for golf.
Still my favourite swing of all time . Never changes his rhythm. And why should he! He had just one of those rounds that couldn’t do anything wrong . Congrats Freddy !
The smoothest golfer out there. Cheers!
I'll say, this was a spellbinding performance by Fred. And he stands up tall and barely bends his knees when he swings, which I guess is why he makes it look so easy.
Absolutely incredible! To shoot 60 at 63 years old? Amazing 🎉

After that par save from the collar any golfer knew it was “one of those rounds” and then the lucky bounces on consecutive approach shots on the back nine, which he birdied, just the icing on the cake. There’s something unexplainable about it, the golf gods give and the golf gods take. When they give, and you’re as good as Freddie - man is it amazing to watch

Since I started watching golf Fred has always been my favorite golfer. He played together with Davis Love those days. After all these years he is still the best golfer in my mind. I don't wear a glove too.
simply amazing ! I love that player. Golf seems so easy when you look at him !
Couples has the smoothest most casual swing in golf!
Fred always play great golf!So amazing rounding!
J’ai toujours admiré ton élan Fred. Tu es LA a raison pourquoi je joue au golf. Le plus beau compliment que j’ai reçu de ma vie de golfeur, c’est que mon élan ressemblait beaucoup au tien. Go and get’em Fred. Poetry in Motion.
Fred Couples is a legendary golfer... famous name when I'm still young and caddy at wack wack golf in the Philippines
This is just amazing. Fred and his swing! Just wow
This guy Fred, yea, he was one of three guys that I watched a LOT when I first fell in love with this game. He is SOOOOOO SMOOTH when he is ZONING!! Im 59 and I started playing in 1985, with a layoff between 2005-2020. I admired Fred Couples, Greg Norman, and Raymond Floyd. Ive met Lee Trevino, Fuzzy Zoeller, Tom Kite, and played in a tournament on a nearby course newly designed by Davis Love III. Its Anderson Creek Golf Course near Ft Bragg NC.
Incredible swing, incredible round of golf Well done Fred, and a swing to die for Best ever
I thought Fred had a bad back😂😂😂. Wow, so smuuuuth, effortless. Joy to watch. Congratulations Fred!!!!!
he makes it look so effortless. amazing.

Nothing like sitting down on your recliner With a smooth brandy and watching that buttery swing. Thanks BoomBoom
Masterpiece, that's Fred! He makes golfing so relaxing...
Greatest swing of all time
I can't find a "hat off" emoji... That's artistry on the absolute highest level... 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
How fantastic was that! So happy for Fred I met Fred Couples way back in 1992. I had just started playing but even then I could see he had the most majestic swing in golf and from then on he was my favourite player. There was no such thing as selfies back in those days but I got his autograph and I have the memory of course.

Freddie showed everyone how to play golf, simply. Hit it long. Hit it close. Make every putt. Easy peasy.
Now that was a joy to watch!
0:07 - "I would say the same thing with Fred, George, that if he gets his putter going..." It's rare to see such a perfect example of foreshadowing in the real world. Well done. Good to see Freddie win again. He was always my favourite in the men's game.
One of my FAVORITES of all time!!!!
The last word s to his caddy.........Good work kid! A class act.
