Matt Welter, Founder of Dormy House, joins Rob Thomas on the Club + Resort Talks podcast to discuss the introduction of a housing solution. Dormy House is a unique business that's focused on creating affordable housing solutions for club and resort employees, especially those in rural and remote areas where inventory is low and people may be priced out of the market. The founder is a real estate developer and former caddie and it was his experience as a caddie, with lengthy commutes and limited housing options near the courses where he worked, that inspired him to find a solution for workforce housing. He works with the team at Bandon Dunes and has already developed two buildings onsite for its employees. Also on this episode of the Club + Resort Talks podcast … The Saddlebrook Resort in Pasco County, Fla., is set for a sweeping transformation, thanks to a $72.5 million loan secured by its developers, Mast Capital and Amzak Capital Management.

The redevelopment plan will encompass a complete redesign of the resort's guestroom suites, lobby, meeting spaces, pool and outdoor areas, golf courses, and food and beverage facilities. Additional upgrades include significant enhancements to the resort's landscaping, sports facilities, and lifestyle amenities. Meadowbrook Golf Course in Lubbock, Texas, is preparing for a new chapter in its nearly century-long history. Established in the 1930s, the course has been a cornerstone of the local golfing community. Now under the management of Orion Golf, Meadowbrook is set to receive comprehensive upgrades aimed at revitalizing its facilities and programs. The new management plans to enhance the course's playability, amenities, and overall accessibility for the Lubbock community. Improvements will include new kitchen equipment, an expanded food menu, clubhouse renovations, and the introduction of golf leagues and clinics. These upgrades are designed to create a consistent, high-quality experience that caters to a broad range of golfers and visitors.

Plus: Dan's European vacation; Riggs embarks on a Bandon Dunes trip; Frankie plays Mat Barzal; The PGA Tour announces the Creator Classic; and golf in the Paris Olympics kicks off this week.You can find every episode of this show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or YouTube.

Four months into the 2024 pro golf season, Andy and Joseph sit down to discuss the professional golfers whose stocks have gone up and down the most so far this year. First, though, they talk about what they are IN and OUT on this week, including reflections from a visit to Bandon Dunes and a bizarre ruling on the DP World Tour. Then they go through the golfers whose stocks have risen and fallen the most in 2024 and how the best players in the world stack up today. The episode closes with Recommendations.

Taylor Pendrith birdies the 72nd hole to win the Byron Nelson at TPC Craig Ranch while Ben Kohles bogeys the final hole to miss a potential playoff. Meanwhile at LIV Singapore (24:00), Brooks and Ripper GC win while TC's Cleeks made their first podium appearance of the year. We break down both events and a few other news and notes from the world of pro golf, Soly's trip to Bandon Dunes (53:00) before opening up the listener/reader mailbag to answer your questions (1:04:30).

This is an episode that is almost entirely about nothing. But it's a fun Fri Day show, that begins with an amusing story from Andy about someone needing an “introduction caddie” in the bar at Bandon Dunes. Then they get to the debut of Sun Day Red products, which prompts questions about expensive ball markers and the word “iconic.” They get to more scuttlebutt about the internal battles for PGA Tour board seats, which continues to appear dysfunctional and exhausting. This week's Cutthroat Corner nominee is revealed for THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson, where there were some options. They discover the Tour is leveraging the immense power of AI for good, namely creating gambling content on ho-hum fringe pros. The return of Maxfli is also hailed. They close it with some SGS Golf Advice that leads to a lengthy digression on ending the hoopla, celebration, and discussion around holes-in-one.

In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy Lack is joined by Coby DuBose to break down all things Houston Open, Coby's hometown event. Andy and Coby dive into Memorial Park, a golf course that Coby is incredibly familiar with, what the over-seed means for course conditions, and of course, debate the chances that Scottie Scheffler wins and the merit of him as a DFS play. In the second half of the episode, Andy and Coby review their weekend at Streamsong, discussing the resort as a whole, their favorite holes, the food, & how it stacks up to Bandon Dunes.

On May 2, Bandon Dunes' latest par-3 course, Bandon Shorty's, will open during the resort's 25th-anniversary celebration. In this episode, Garrett sits down at Bandon Dunes with one of the designers of Shorty's, Keith Cutten, a partner in the firm Whitman, Axland & Cutten. Garrett and Keith discuss the origins of WAC, the renowned skills of his co-designers Rod Whitman and Dave Axland, the goals and process behind the Shorty's project, and the joys and difficulties of designing short courses in general. In the second half of the pod, Garrett and Keith dig into the fascinating ideas of Keith's book The Evolution of Golf Course Design. His basic argument is that the broader trends in society and culture have influenced the golf architecture of each era in ways that haven't been thoroughly investigated. Garrett loves discussing this kind of stuff, so he and Keith really get after it here.

In this throwback podcast on the history of Bandon Dunes, part 2 picks up on May 1st, 1999 on the eve of Bandon Dunes opening for business. I'm not even sure Mike Keiser could've dreamed something as big as what Bandon has become. We hear from Bandon's original caddy master, Shoe, and the local barber, Mick Peters, who has hit the first tee shot on every course at Bandon, as well as reflections from Mike Keiser, David Kidd, Josh Lesnik, Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw as we also celebrate the opening of the Sheep Ranch, their third course on property.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
