Top Instructors Tom Patri & Nick Bradley plus Tour Championship with Executive Direct Allison Fillmore, and former Tour Player and now wonderful TV Show Host Charlie Rymer all join me.
Tom Patri shares his insights on the Covid vaccination issue, dealing with pressure at the Tour level, Bryson calling out his equipment, Jay Monahan stepping in to end Brooks & Bryson taking jabs at each other, and the potential issues within the US Ryder Cup team.
Allison Fillmore takes us inside the Tour Championship. We hear about what it's like putting together an event of this magnitude, what you can expect when you walk through the gates, the awesome responsibility it is to manage an event on the home course of Bobby Jones, and how they give back to the community.
Nick Bradley talks about taking Justin Rose from #125 to #5 in the World Golf Rankings, the importance of visualization in your career and the next shot plus, what stoicism is and why it's important.
Charlie Rymer was on the ground of Augusta National for the final round of the 1986 Masters. He shares that story and the feel it had. We also hear about his interviews with our friend from The Golf Channel Damon Hack, who were the most intense interviews he's ever had, what's going on at The McLemore Club, the Myrtle Beach courses that we need to play, and how he was able to not allow all those conversations with the Top Instructors in the game to not mess up his swing.

Meet the Host
I have a passion for game that started when I was 12 years old playing golf in the evenings with my father. I took lessons from a gentleman named Ken Friend at Tides Golf Club in Seminole, Florida and I have loved the game ever since. I grew up idolizing Jack Nicklaus. The '75 & '86 Masters remain two of my favorite sports memories.
Augusta National is my favorite place on the planet. Attending The Masters tournament is one of the highlights of every year since 2001. I cherish walking those hallowed grounds. It gives me a feeling of wonder and excitement that has become a part of me and I never want it to leave.
I was born in Pittsburgh and the Steelers, Penguins, and Pirates are in my DNA. I also lived outside of Boston for several years and spending time at Fenway Park and the Boston Garden, infused my soul with the Red Sox and Celtics.
Tranquil late afternoon rounds of golf with my father and son some of my happiest moments. My annual golf trip with my buddies is always another highlight of the golf year. I also enjoy going to our local PGA Tour SuperStore and testing out new equipment with my son; it's one of our favorite things to do together.
