What a great interview, Robert is such a humble guy who clearly made the very most of his talent with loads of hard work. Wishing him the very best of luck with his tour. Its nice seeing someone helping kids out with his experiences and knowledge 👌
Robert is a credit to his profession, one of the real nice guys. Great podcast.
Best interview ever, always admired how Robert has conducted himself, and his swing is pure.
I play with rocky at Ingestre park. Was on the range with him tonight. Good lad.
So If someone said Robert Rock to me before today, I knew he was a Golfer but couldnt tell you much more honestly. I seriously enjoyed this chat... my word what a great, humble, down to earth guy. If he was still playing today I would now go out of my way to watch him. What a nice genuine bloke. Fair play for grafting your way to a great golfing career Robert. Respect.
This is proper class! Instant fan of him now. Would love to see what a Robert Rock vs James Robinson match would look like 😍👀
As good as James is he isn't in the league of Robert Rock that would be a one sided affair I'm afraid.....both great players but Robert operates on a higher level than james
Robert is a great listen. The best mixture of talent, humility and class. So easy to see why he’s so well respected. The best episode you’ve put out so far. Well done team 👌
Agreed
One of your best guests…so good to listen to his reflections on his own career…more of this guys. Surely a 10 shot challenge coming!?
Robert is a shining example to everyone , sport business , life. He is an absolute world class athlete, proven winner yet he is so humble , class, warm, engaging! So many people with over stated arrogance could learn from this guy! Best episode so far . Well done Rick and Guy.🎉
How does this only have 81k views? This is one the best interviews.
One of my favorite episodes. Robert is a great guy and I think would be great as an analyst on TV.
This has to be at the top of the list of (in your own words) phenomenal! podcasts Rick. To hear the real story of golf and not just the icing on the cake was really moving and changes the way I for one will look at the golfers who make it their career. the honesty of Robert was refreshing to hear. Well done the team. More like this please! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Robert Rock has my favourite swing ever. PLEASE do a 10 challenge match with him
That was simply the best pod cast Rick has done .I've always like Robert as a golfer but he is such a marvelous bloke too,honest ,thought provoking, knowledgeable and inspiring. Well done Rick on getting Robert on
What an absolute gentleman great watch
I wish Robert all the success in whatever he does
Bumped into Rob this morning, congratulated him on the podcast and he genuinely didn't realise what a big deal it was. Very humble chap, still hits a decent golf shot too 🙂
I played with ‘Rocky’ in a Midland PGA event many years ago and was told how far he hit it, I remember thinking he wasn’t that long until a hole needed a bomb and OMG he hit it into another post code!! and went on to shoot mid 60’s with ease. Class player 👍👍👍👍👍
I play with him now at Ingestre. Was on the range with him tonight. Incredible golf swing. He’s got time for anyone. He went out with a 20hcp the other day. Asked him for a round. He’s in the US open & hrs got time for a 20hcp 😂😂
Up until watching the interview with Rick, I hadn’t seen or even heard of Robert Rock. What a gent up took up the game and mastered it through hard work and dedication. His stories and honesty are a breath of fresh air and far away from the current modern game and the intensity these top players have to survive. Great interview Rick.
Just finished the podcast on Spotify come here to leave a comment. What a great episode, just 3 golf enthusiasts having a chat. Enjoyed Rick and Robert having a lot in common and their experiences growing up in golf and Guys fascination with everything. Would love to see more of him on the channel, especially on the course. A Rick Shiels sponsored junior event would be a class shout too.
Wasn’t sure about committing this long to a podcast, so glad i did! So interesting.
Loved that but you cannot leave it there.
Need to see Rick v Robert.
Truly inspiring man.

What a genuine and humble chap Robert is, he deserves all the best for the future. Great interview.
Such a great interview, one of my favourites on the channel. Such an incredibly humble guy is Rock and he just has a great ability to share his story. Can't believe it was nearly 2 hours, time flew past!
Another brilliant job by Rick & Guy doing the interviewing. 👏
By far the best Podcast yet Guys!! Well done for getting Robert on! Wish you could have had another 4 hours chat with him! Great stuff!!
What a great interview, Robert is such a humble guy who achieved so much, what an inspiration. More interviews with people like him please 👏👏
I think this is my favourite Rick Shields video, what a great podcast
Superb interview, not your typical tour pro but if there was ever a pro that made the most of his talents through hard work and dedication, it is Robert Rock! My favourite Podcast yet, thank you
Really really enjoyed every minute of that podcast. Such a down to earth guy and great to here his story. It's not all glamour and riches.
Would like to see more podcasts like this in the future
What a genuine guy. No media training just honestly thinking and answering Ricky’s “why”. Respect.
I've watched dozens of Elite sportsman interviews, this genuinely is possibly the most interesting one I've watched to date. Brilliant Brilliant interview.
What a decent bloke. Lifted me watching that. All the best for your future endeavours Robert.
What a fantastic two hour podcast, i am so pleased you made this extended podcast, just to hear all the fantastic stories as a tour pro who fought until the end of his time. It was a great insight into how these tour pros go through mentally challenging decisions reference making ends meet.
Robert is a credit to himself and the sport, i love the honesty Robert states, you need to be selfish in many ways to become a tour pro but also love that he said i have been selfish for over 20 years and now it's time to pay back hence suporting his son in his dreams etc.
Best podcast i have listened to by far. Rick you are becoming the Parky of podcasts keep up the fantastic work you also bring great light and entertainment into the golfing world. Shout out to Guy and all the RS team 😊😊
Sappertapper golf ⛳️
good to see someone indoors without a cap on :)
Brilliant, I hope you have around with Robert, what a great human, humble, hard working, new what he wanted, worked hard and achieved, best interview yet
One of my first memories of golf, was carrying the scoreboard at the Celtic manor in the Welsh open. The group was Paul mcginely, Phil price and Robert rock. And I think it was on the 5th hole par 5 into the wind, Rob was the first player I had ever seen hit driver of the deck. My jaw hit the floor as he hit this low fizzing driver to about 10 foot. Fair to say I hit the course as soon as I could the try and replicate this. Failed massively but has to be one of the best shots I’ve ever seen live. Such a nice guy
I'm listening to this at work knowing I still have an overtime day tomorrow to work. I'm' already at 96 hrs and the rest of the day left to work, too. At 58:25 I had to pause the show and pull myself together. Spot on and the fact he admitted that made Mr. Rock my favorite person in golf, not my favorite player. Much more valuable. Best show I've ever heard.
Met Rob at the London Club a few years ago on the putting green, he spent 10 mins chatting and giving a few tips, absolute top guy.
That is one of the best interviews with a sportsman I have probably ever seen. The almost two hours flew by and I didn't want it to end. I have always admired Robert's golf swing and have not heard him speak much before (nor did I know that he was so unhappy with his putting). He is such a humble and likeable bloke and was very candid and insightful in his answers. But for goodness sake, get the man a decent seat, as he looked as uncomfortable as hell at times on that stool - it reminded me of the joke interview Renato Laranja did with Bas Rutten where he had put books under his seat cushion.
The most informative insight into a pro golfers life I’ve ever seen. Very honest and very likeable guy. First class 🎉interview!
Absolute sensational podcast.. just putting it out there Rick and Robert break 75 in Baltray .. at this time of the year you could probably recreate the conditions with the classic Irish weather .. Robert such a gent of a lad and soooo humble
Literally the best podcast episode ever!
That was so good , brilliant podcast , Robert Rock seems a great guy 👍
An amazing interview, as a new fan to golf loved hearing and learning so much!
Modest hard working guy. Great podcast. Look forward to Rick and Robert playing in Ireland!
Only golfer without a stupid cap.. always followed this top fella.
Faldo
What a fascinating interview, learnt so much about Robert and great to hear about his introduction into golf and starting on tour. Watched many many of the high profile guests and this is probably one of the best
That had to be the most "jaw dropping" podcast episode I think you've done. What a story!! Fantastic loved it and I will share.
What a truly nice bloke. I had followed Robert's career but never knew the back story. This is the antidote to the money obsession which currently pervades golf and its media coverage. Also brilliant to learn of his commitment to bringing kids into the game. As one who is involved in this in a minor way I know how incredibly important this is.
Golf has definitley changed. I have just taken it up again in my 50th year having given up at 25 yo. I started because my father played and wanted me to at 8 yo. I loved playing, but hated everything else about being a member of a club. My first trip back to a club recently, just to use the driving range, I was actually nervous like I was every time I went as a youngster because of all the stuffy, pompous attitudes I was used to from the past as a junior member of a club. I fully expected to be shouted at and barred for changing my shoes in the car park. From watching Rick and Guy, then the Golf Girls and all the other great Golf YTubers, I have rediscovered my love of the game and love the lighter, more relaxed nature of social Golf these days. Thanks for being part of that.
Oh, and as a gear head, I LOVE all the new technology available to the modern golfer.
What a great interview and such a nice bloke. Keep up the good work.
Class interview love every minute 👏
Really great podcast! Such a genuine guy. Well done guys!
What an absolutely pleasure listening to this podcast thanks Rick and Guy for giving us an insight on Robert Rock career.
Such a great interview !!
Best interview by far upto now on your channel. What a great player Robert was/is and what a lovely fascinating character. He was always one of the coolest best dressed guys on tour and has the a wonderful pretty golf swing. Thoroughly enjoyed this.
What a great story. I watched a lot of European golf on the Golf Channel over the years early in the morning here in Wisconsin. So many interesting stories that need to be told. Keep the stories coming!!
Great interview! One of your best podcasts.
More more more of this type of podcast longer format more in depth didn't felt rushed like the hour long usual podcast
Great story I really felt I was taken along his journey over 20 yrs
Keep up the good work
My goodness was this interesting and fun to listen/watch. A+ material and what a story. Well done Rick and Guy.
Long chat, but awesome ... never boring. Only thing missing was a fireplace and a couple of pints.
Great interview Robert Rock is such a wonderful interviewee and you guys just understand him so well perfect podcast
This was an awesome podcast and love how humble Robert is even after being an accomplished tour pro. Well done
Great video guys. That was a great chat with a real modest humble guy. I watched Robert play Open at Royal Troon amd he was a proper gent....chatted to fans and was engaging.
Good luck in everything you do in future Robert....the tour should find a way to use you. ⛳️⛳️
That was the best podcast to date.. Robert Rock is an absolute legend amazing guest
Magic interview. Robert, what a great guy you are. Loved that.
Brilliant to have Robert on. Loved watching him play and remember his victory over Tiger well. Phenomenal Bouffant as well.
This was a great talk with a very grounded guy. Really chilled me out. 👍
Robert is all of us, just grafting away. He's one of the few success stories. Top bloke, top interview.
Cheers 🍻 Great interview!!!
Great podcast this one! Excellent insight and a really nice bloke.
Fantastic interview and what a great insight into the road to becoming a professional golfer. Absolutely brilliant podcast.
What a great chat, thanks really enjoyed that
What a fabulous interview! This is quality content, and RR seems like a top bloke
This was good to watch, my favourite part was when Rick adjusted Rob’s mic and guy shook his head
Brilliant interview! Loved it
Always loved RRs demeanour on the course, but this was class. What a bloke!
A superb podcast, just top, top quality. Robert is such a humble, engaging and likeable human being.....well done Rick and Guy. Absolutely captivating!
What a genuine nice guy. I thought nearly two hours was a long podcast, but I could have listened to more of his stories 👍
Outstanding one of the best podcasts ever, Robert is such a class act. I'm sure there's at least another podcast in him with stories from the tour. Has to be featured in a 10 shot challenge asap
Best Podcast you have made , great interview
Wish I had his swing! What a great chat with a lovely man who articulated the journey so well.
Class.... so insightful. Proper golfer of the generation that I grew up watching.
Brilliant chat,that's what it felt like,Robert is very personable,I wish him well,especially with the junior golf initiative.
Great interview....that was cool...
Really enjoyed that Rick. Great podcast.
Great podd! Robert realy made the time fly in this episode.
May just be the best guest you've had on the pod. Interesting listen to a top class professional.
Fabulous interview - really humble guy and a great guest
More Robert Rock . This was you're best content. EVER!
Fascinating interview. What a guy. Thanks
The one thing I’ve learned from watching this two hour podcast is I will never purchase a thing from Hertz or State Farm due to their obnoxious ads.
In all seriousness, what a great interview. I didn’t think I’d actually watch the full thing due to the length, but what a compelling interview listening to this Everyman talk about how he went from a kid swinging old clubs in a park to beating arguably the greatest player who ever lived.
Probably the best Rick Shiels podcast. Really excellent
Really enjoyed this, top man.
Wow that was a brilliant interview by far the best upto now ...
Incredible interview Robert is pure class thanks for this
great episode guys, well done! what a lovely guy. Would love to see him play a round with you. Robert gives me hope that one day I might be good at golf lol
Fantastic that mate, great guy do more like this, brilliant 👍
Great listen. Very interesting story of a really grounded bloke. Thanks
Really enjoyed it. Thank you
What a relaxed, informative, interesting and genuinely enjoyable interview. Can't say I knew much about Robert before this as I'm more of a golf player than a golf enthusiast, but if a tour pro can make a 13 on a hole then it gives hope to all of us! Keep up the good work Team RS.
Lovely interview. So cool to get the story on a less well known players experiences
