NLU Film Room: Ben vs. Soly at Royal Melbourne Composite Course
When Ben was crowned "best golfer at NLU" by KVV, Soly took that personally. Soly, sitting at a 0.2 handicap, challenged Ben, a +2.4, to a grudge match at the Composite Course at Royal Melbourne right after the 2023 Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship. Who really is the best golfer at NLU? Watch along with commentators Neil and TC to find out.

Film Room is a welcome sight during the absolute season of depression pro golf is going through. More please!
Brothers Schu are incomparable in the booth. Tremendous synergy.

Could listen to Neil and Tron narrate anything. They are great!
After talk of rollback, Rahm leaving for LIV and the blockbuster Talor Gooch trade to the #SmashGC, it's real nice to watch some good ole fashioned NLU film room content.

That’s exactly right. Have been questioning my own passion for the game lately and this was a friendly reminder that golf still rules.
Can we get a supercut of TC raving about the course? Dead serious. Love all the appreciation and expertise.

"One of the better Par (3,4,5)'s in all of golf"
That butterfly following the ball at 34:26 was something!
At what point does Soly, past his prime at the peak of NLU golf, with his newfound perspective and injury ailments, take the money and join #CleeksGC? People are asking!
Love these guys doing the commentary. Neil and TC are a great duo
Great content as always. I feel like I speak for the NLU community to ask about the elephant in the room; when is the next season of Tourist Sauce dropping?

I think the lack of a season this Fall can be attributed to Soly’s newfound *perspective* but that’s purely speculation. 🤞🏻for early Spring?
Honestly, we need more Neil & TC content. Even if it's just to narrate all Film Rooms moving forward. Neil & TC - 2024. I'm here for it lads.
Love that you can just hear the scar tissue the artist formerly known as The Kid has when discussing Soly's game
The most underrated part of any nlu video is the ambient music in the background

Always wish they would put the playlist in the comments but suspect it may be NLU original beats
Great film room, need more film rooms, tourist sauce and strapped, I can watch them all day.
More film room, please. Honestly, this is the content I enjoy most from y’all. That’s not to say that you don’t do a phenomenal job covering professional golf. The reality for most golfers is watching and caring about other amateurs, not pros.
The king is dead… long live the king… great content guys - PLEASE record more!!!!
Two Schusters, a shared set of AirPods and TC's haute couture garage. I like this version of the Film Room...
Feel like Soly pulled a Koepka, blaming slow play. Some say he was suggesting Ben was the Cantlay of the group
FINALLY! Been waiting forever on some competitive Filmroom-content!
Awesome video. And as a Melburnian so good to see you guys back in Oz at the Sandbelt at Royal Melb.
Great stuff, gentlemen! Makes me want to drive down to Santa Cruz right now and play Pasatiempo. Since a flight to Melbourne is out of the realm. Keep up the great work!
For a bucket list course you guys brought it to life. What a test of golf!
These videos are as good as it gets for golf fans!!!
Got to love a classic Film Room
More of this. Def would love a club championship. Your video content is great and the people need more
Chaps/Lads, I could watch these all day, so good and felt nervous for both! Imagine how good golf commentary would be with the Schusters on the mic
Fantastic commentary fellas. Hope there is another match in the future
Haven't seen Neil in a while! Love this duo behind the mic.
God please put out more videos... I can't watch the kids put out the same videos over and over anymore!
Awesome stuff. THIS is golf!
Awesome stuff by 2 Great Players !! Well Palyed Boys 🤙
Love it fellas!! Give me the Schustercast over the Manningcast all day!
Let’s go, been waiting on this.
so good. course looks incredible
Got out the popcorn for this one. Classic NLU
This was such a nice watch. It was edited so we’ll and it made such a nice quick fun view. This is my Manning cast. Carter cast
Been having some back tightness lately. Went to gym before round yesterday and thoroughly stretched. Went from my normal 7-10 yard draw to straight to just a touch of fade. Totally wrecked my round since Im trained to aim right of the flag 😂
Good one Ben ! Love the under the bush shots. Nice video guys.
Superb content NLU. Well done Ben on the new crown. Soly you’ve been a fantastic king and you fought gallantly. Lastly, as a local Melbourne sandbelt golf I would ordinarily say any footage of the grand old lady of Australian golf would outshine everything but the tremendous commentary from the brothers Schuster really made the girl work for her money.
So a Plus 2.4 USA HC is about a 8 HC in Australia.

Soly's 14 over par round = Scratch
What a golf course!!!
You did it again! 👏👏🎬👏👏
Well done Ben, just gotta love the quality of these Film Room episodes. Whilst the course played great I’d love another Film Room when RM is at its best which it clearly wasn’t October 2023. Still the best I’ve played though.
Please more film rooms to give me hope for golf
Now that's some good golf there. Neither one overwhelmed the other and it was a great match.
love Film Rooms, some of best of YT.. also this is real golf and what 99.99% of golf is, leave the equipment alone
What an epic course.
Ben walking up to check the green on his 75 yard approach shot had Soly rattled to the bone.
I play Sandy Links across the road from RM every Sat, so privileged to play sandbelt golf, 4hr rounds and its great fun and tests all aspects of your game....and only for $62 AUD
RM looking a million, this was a fun watch. Top Flight commentary from the lads. Thank you for this gift. Gonna be using ‘biker gang’ from now on for sure.
That’s my boy!!!!!🎉
Really like the new tracer, zoom from the tee boxes
Was lucky enough to play the West course about a month ago and have to agree with Tron that 2-7 is right up there for best stretches in the world, so damn good
Great viewing
Wow what a course! Bloody hell must be so hard to play there.
The U boat indeed. I have a u510 1i and it can be funky at times (I'm an 11.9) but it's generally an absolute treat and is my into breeze club because my driver is still too spinny
This might be my favorite NLU vid of all time, however after the 75min WITB vid a few days ago I'm not sure it's even the best you've put out this week!
Glad they decided to go with the contrasting attire.
Anyone know where to find Neil's hat? Couldn't find it on Titleist or NLU website.
Loved this boys. Garage commentary was exceptional. Shame Soly hit it so poorly. I have lived in Melbourne all my life and watching brought back all the memories of playing pennant there over the years. Such a ripping track. Keep up the great content. Hopefully more from down under. ✌️
34:26 DJ’s gotta hire that butterfly to operate the drones
Gotta love the boys in the booth
DJ at the beginning of the year " If we get Ben completely uncorked idk if that's good for anybody's self esteem" spoke it into existence
Nice homage to the money round with the matching outfits
Refreshing to see some action back on the course! Another stellar job by the team! Also, anyone else catch that bird flying with the drone at 17:48? *Edit: TC caught a bird shot at **20:14*
Let’s go!
I feel for Soly, he loves the track so much but played under his expectations.
Film rooms continue to keep me interested in golf. Pro golf be damned.
Yeahhhhhhh let’s do this!
Could listen to TC talk golf courses all day
Sick
Amazing video as always guys! Do you guys think your matches would be more competitive and less of a pillow fight if you hired local caddies?
It was a Solid T18, Ben!
This is right up there with the Manning Cast
You guys really need to do another Tourist Sauce in Oz!!
Great content, thank you guys. If Ben could putt he would have Soley 4 & 3
1 is Strapped 2 is Tourist Sauce 3 is Filmroom, but Filmroom is moving up there for me.
32:50 awesome shots from good players and the golf course gave absolutely nothing back
Neil’s pronunciation of composite gets me every time
more film room please, especially 1v1's
I love listening to TC describe a hole, everyone is the best hole in golf, real “maybe the best hole in the country, but not the best hole on the course”
“I think Geoff Ogilvy used to live over there”😂😂
Man I get the same way with pace of play if I'm playing with someone that takes a extra minute in the cart or digging in the bag it gets in my head especially seeing the group you gaped in the fair way .
You guys really need to do another Tourist Sauce in Oz!
Neils Home Alone reference was gold
Is there anything better than matchplay? Good round boys
Can't wait for the rematch on Tourist Sauce Season 9
Soooo good. The only thing to make it better would be if they were hitting the ball 5 percent shorter.
G’Day Fellas, next time try the public course adjacent to RMGC …Sandy Links great layout, the greenkeeping is done done by RMGC.
As a guy who fights the long & lefts...this course and turf absolutely terrifies me.
TC before every hole “man this hole is awesome”

Soly's list of woes is pretty funny.
i need to know what hat Icarito is wearing from Titleist.. pls help a brother out.
This course is fucking sick
The fake bird on the drone flyover of #7 is cracking me up.
Is this the start of a bigger tourist sauce in Australia? I liked the 1st series in Aus but it was too short form
Really needed Big’s on course color commentary

I assume it's the new Titleist utility iron. Not sure on loft/shaft specs. I have an older one and it's an absolute rocket ship. Highly recomment.
Awesome course and appreciate the commentary. Especially TC not being a complete whiney hitch
21:40 some ball don’t lie action for Soly’s TIO relief
