pWotD Episode 2904: Grand Slam (golf) Welcome to Popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 319,048 views on Monday, 14 April 2025 our article of the day is Grand Slam (golf).In golf, winning all of golf's major championships in the same calendar year constitutes the Grand Slam. In the amateur era, this feat was achieved in 1930 when Bobby Jones won the four major tournaments of that era open to amateurs: the The Amateur Championship, the Open Championship, the United States Open, and the United States Amateur. Modern variations include a Career Grand Slam, which involves winning all of the major tournaments within a player's career. Six golfers have accomplished this: Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, and Rory McIlroy. There is also the Tiger Slam, achieved by winning four consecutive major titles but not in the same calendar year; this variation is named after Woods, the only player to accomplish the feat.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:46 UTC on Tuesday, 15 April 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Grand Slam (golf) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Ivy.

Our guest today is Nadene Gole. Nadene is the world number one ranked senior woman amateur, a position she has held since February 2023 after only commencing playing senior women's amateur events in late 2022.

Henry Shimp played his college golf at Stanford where he won the 2019 national championship. His life is a bit different after graduating in 2022. He's in the real world, working, traveling, and battling injuries, but he still plays golf at a high level. He qualified for his sixth US Amateur championship this summer. We talk about a bunch of topics: his qualifying mindset, the long two days (and 38 holes) at Wild Horse in Nebraska in July, playing in the Amateur Championship at Royal Lytham and St. Annes, his experience at Stanford, how college golf has changed, and we end with a good 15 minutes on golf courses Shimp has enjoyed playing recently.

Golf. Hard to believe there are other sports played here in The Valley as everywhere you look is a golf course. But one organization in particular is celebrating 100 years this year, the AZ Golf Association. The AZ Golf Association serves as the official governing body of amateur golf in Arizona. What started as a small group of golfers who got together to run the annual Amateur Championship has grown to an association of more than 700 men's and women's clubs, serving nearly 80,000 individual members. Today, the AGA is a volunteer-based organization directed by amateur golfers promoting the game of golf and providing valuable benefits and services to its members. This week I have Chris Montgomery who is the Dir of Marketing & Partnerships at AGA. Hopefully I can learn a thing or two about the game. We also have two of our favorites, Jeremy Mueller of State Farm Insurane and Dr. Rob DiVito of AZ Center for Laser Dentistry.
