Podcasts about Bethpage

After transatlantic and transcontinental travel earlier, Andy and Brendan are ready for a true whiparound Friday episode to round out a chaotic week. Brendan! is back stateside and shares that he did not watch a movie on his flight back from Ireland, disappointing Andy as they chat about the big premiere of Happy Gilmore 2. Scottie Scheffler made it to New York with his "Open Championship trophy" in hand, just 24 hours after winning his fourth major, and was joined by Collin Morikawa, John Daly, and golf influencer Bryson DeChambeau, among other celebrities. Speaking of Bryson, he's had a big few days of quotes regarding the Ryder Cup and a potential matchup with Rory at Bethpage. Andy and Brendan then run through the Schedule for the Week, including the Sticky Note Open at TPC Sod Farm, Zinger calling the Senior Open with some friends from across the pond, and the U.S. Junior, where one participant was disqualified for a peculiar reason. There's a little bit of news regarding LIV as their flagship London event kicks off on Friday before this episode wraps with some Best Day Brewing Golf Advice.

Hour 4 opens with a tough look at a Border Patrol agent shot by a repeat illegal immigrant who was repeatedly released by New York sanctuary policies — a stark reminder of the real costs of weak immigration enforcement. Sports director Tom Ackerman breaks down the Cardinals' rocky season and the hopeful rebuild under new GM Heim Bloom, who's revamping the minor league system with smarter investments and promising prospects like Liam Doyle. Golf talk highlights Scottie Scheffler's dominant play and the upcoming Ryder Cup at Bethpage. Missouri Senator Adam Schnelting then plugs a Missouri Republican PAC golf fundraiser next Monday at Old Hickory in St. Charles County, encouraging conservatives to show up and support local GOP candidates with food, drinks, and friendly competition. A mix of hard truths, sports insight, and local GOP activism wraps up the hour.

Het clubkampioenschap strokeplay zit erop. Wisselend succes voor ons. Na de eerste hole stonden we gezamenlijk al +8. Paul had verrassend de zondag vrij en Martijn deed het goed. Peter was getuige van meerdere 11'en. Rogier piekte te vroeg met zijn win vrijdag op de herenmiddag.In Schotland was de voorbereiding op het The Open, nl. het Schots Open. Titelverdediger Bobby Mac had het niet, Scheffler had moeite met putten op broccoli, Rory kwam wel dichtbij maar Chris Gotterup won zijn 2e toernooi. De dames speelden weer een major, de Evian Masters. Met eagle, birdie en eagle op de (playoff) 18e hole won Grace Kim van ballstriker Thitikul. LIV was op Valderrama waar Jon in zijn 'thuiswedstrijd' net niet won en Talor Gooch weer op het niveau van 2023 was. Mouw won tenslotte de alternate, het Isco Championship.In de korte ronde: Wimbledon, Bethpage, de Tour, ons matchplay, Nelly Korda, Insta accounts om te volgen, Happy Gilmore, voorspellingen voor The Open voor ons JaarspelDe Raad de Speler is van Peter zijn favoriete The Open moment.0:00 - 16:04 Eigen golf16:04 - 39:33 Professioneel golf39:33 - 57:24 De Korte Ronde57:24 - 57:48 Raad de Speler

Martin & Des (and young Mike?) discuss the unusual conundrum that appears to affect the US Ryder Cup team selections for Bethpage. Will Keegan Bradley be a playing captain in September? Also we discuss the current state of PGA Tour/LIV negotiations as we are now 2+ years on from the infamous Framework Agreement.With the Open Championship only 10 days away we make our pre tournament predictions and there are certainly a couple of surprises in the ITFOG team's choices. Hope all our listeners thoroughly enjoy the Open Championship from the legendary Royal Portrush GC on the outstanding North Antrim coastline.Interact with the podcast via X @ITFOG_podcast, Instagram @ITFOG or BlueSky @ITFOG-podcast

Detroit Golf Club has become a power hitters paradise in recent years and the 2025 Rocket Classic was no different as the longest hitter on tour, 20-year-old Aldrich Potgieter took home the title in a playoff over Max Greyserman and Chris Kirk. Potgieter became one of the youngest winners in PGA Tour history and we may be seeing a star in the making. Tim was on the scene in Detroit a few years ago and gives some insight into the course and the tournament. Patrick Reed won LIV Dallas for his first LIV title and has stoked some talk about a possible Ryder Cup pick for Bethpage this year. Although it seems like a longshot, we will discuss the possibility on this episode. The Broadmoor offered a confusing challenge on the Champions Tour for the U.S. Senior Open as many in the field were befuddled by its greens. Padraig Harrington held off Stewart Cink for the victory, even after some controversy days earlier after a round with Roger Maltby. On the YouTube front, Riggs took on another hater and this guy may have been the most miserable person he has played yet as Riggs pounded him into submission at We-Ko-Pa.

The new-look Rocket Classic is only a day away!

What does our crew think of his chances at taking to the team room and the tee box at Bethpage? Tune in to find out! The guys also take a look at the biggest storylines headed into the Open Championship at Royal Portrush, namely what we can expect from Rory McIlroy. A solid T-2 from Auston Kim at the KPMG Women's PGA Championship has her in the mix for the Solheim Cup this fall as well! Our crew discusses her performance at Frisco with her, as well as what this week holds as she partners up with Sei Young Kim at the Dow Championship on the LPGA Tour.

Auston Kim (17:23)

We begin this week on the Smylie Show with Smylie Kaufman & Charlie Hulme's reaction to a stunning comeback win for Keegan Bradley at the Travelers Championship! With Bradley set to captain the American side in the Ryder Cup this fall, Smylie and Charlie discuss what more Keegan needs to do in order to feel comfortable using a pick on himself as a playing captain - the first time since Arnold Palmer in 1963. SK and CH also delve into the flip side of Bradley's win - a devastating finish for Tommy Fleetwood as he continues to search for his first-ever PGA TOUR win. Smylie and Charlie are then joined by GOLF.com's James Colgan, who provides some insight on the TOUR's new CEO, Brian Rolapp. James delves into the work Rolapp did as the de facto No. 2 at the NFL, including landmark media deals that could inform the approach he'll take with the PGA TOUR.

Gholf: Die Amerikaner Keegan Bradley reken hy speel tans die beste gholf van sy loopbaan. Die kaptein van die Amerikaanse Ryder-bekerspan het die Travellers-kampioenskap met 15 onder baansyfer gewen. Tommy Fleetwood van Engeland en die Amerikaner Russell Henley was saam tweede op 14 onder, gevolg deur die Australiër Jason Day en Harris English van Amerika op 13 onder. Bradley sê daar word nog besluit of hy 'n spelende kaptein gaan wees op Bethpage:

Smylie Kaufman's NBC Sports teammates Kevin Kisner and Dan Hicks join the show fresh off their broadcast work at the U.S. Open to recap a truly unforgettable ending at Oakmont! Smylie and Kiz share their hole-by-hole, minute-by-minute observations as the Sunday action played out on the last nine, and we listen to Dan's iconic call of JJ Spaun's 65-foot major-winning putt. Smylie also plays it forward with Kevin and Dan, discussing the Ryder Cup implications of JJ's win, and whether Keegan Bradley will pick himself as a playing captain at Bethpage.

Andy and Brendan are in high spirits for this "Victory Wednesday" recording focused on the Canadian Open. The two discuss the results from "Golf's Longest Day" of U.S. Open qualifying. Amateurs lit some sites up, Cam Young advanced in a playoff, and Zac Blair found his way in at Springfield yet again. There's some LinkedIn chatter after "dental coach" Matt Vogt advanced to Oakmont from the Walla Walla, Washington site. Andy and Brendan ponder whether big-name players that failed to qualify at east-coast events should have flown out to the west coast to play different competition. The two then move to the RBC Canadian Open, where Luke Clanton will debut as a pro and Rory McIlroy re-emerged after his interesting week at Quail Hollow. Andy and Brendan discuss Rory's pre-tournament press conference and his comments about his driver failing testing at the PGA and the ensuing decision to not speak with the media after any tournament round. PJ pops in to preview the American Family Insurance Championship, a Champs Tour team event, before Brendan gives his "Event of the Week" to this week's DP World Tour stop in Amsterdam. In news, the Fireballs have a new signing and Scottie Scheffler is officially headed to Bethpage!

The USPGA Championship from Quail Hollow is in the books and Scottie Scheffler again proved to be the best player in the field. Martin and Des hit the studio to discuss a whole range of storylines from Charlotte. Will Scottie complete the Grand Slam, who can challenge him if his B game was enough to win last week, was Rory's non conforming driver a factor, was Bryson unlucky, who has played their way into contention for Bethpage in September? We find plenty to talk about, even if the event itself was fairly pedestrian viewing until midway through the last round when Jon Rahm made it interesting until the "Green Mile".Interact with the podcast via our various social media portals, X @ITGOG_podcast, Instagram @ITFOG and BlueSky @ITFOG-podcast.

Martin and Des meet up to discuss the last couple of week's results but mainly to record their predictions for this week's USPGA Championship at Quail Hollow. Young Mike zooms in later to add his own predictions.A few answers but many more questions in this Ryder Cup year where European players are dominating on the PGA Tour. The next few weeks will be critical to the makeup of both teams at Bethpage.Interact with the podcast via X @ITFOG_podcast, Instagram @ITFOG or BlueSky @ITFOG-podcast

We start off the show discussing Russell Henley and his win at the API this past weekend. There are some other talking points that we get into based on storylines coming out of the event. JT being back in the top 10 gets us debating the most talented players in the game and how JT compares to them, even some of his good buddies. Collin Morikawa skipped out of any media interviews after loosing at Bay Hill and then doubles down by saying he doesn't owe anyone anything. It makes one of our hosts hot and we debate how the players should handle these situations, especially in the day and age of engaging more to grow the professional game. Jay Monahan had some newsworthy items in his press conference as it relates to pace of play and LIV golf. We then look into the Ryder Cup standings as we head into an important stretch before Bethpage. The show finishes with our picks and preview of The Players Championship.

Russell Henley wins at Bay Hill. Morikawa lets another slip away. Hong Kong breakdown. Sergio at Bethpage? LIV Singapore preview.Tiger ruptures achilles. Favorites at Sawgrass? 17th the island green...... Much More!!

Andy and Brendan went LIVE on YouTube immediately following the finish at Bay Hill and were fired up after a packed weekend of pro golf. Off the top, they discuss Russell Henley chasing down Collin Morikawa to win the Arnold Palmer Invitational, his first win in over 850 days. Andy and Brendan chat about Henley's current place among the game's top players, his Ryder Cup candidacy, and his tournament-winning chip-in on the 16th hole that NBC missed thanks to a Rolex commercial. They then move on to Collin Morikawa and his performance at Bay Hill. Morikawa was unable to close, blowing a three-shot lead on the back nine and is still searching for his first win since 2023. Other notes on API include Keegan Bradley's record-breaking Sunday, Michael Kim's rise up the OWGR ranks, and Sepp Straka's continued strong play. Next, Andy and Brendan give some props to Karl Vilips for his win at the Puerto Rico Open, becoming the first player to win on the PGA Tour in Sun Day Red apparel. From there, the two touch on the Blue Bay LPGA and the Joburg Open before a lengthy discussion about LIV Hong Kong. Sergio Garcia won the individual title and is continuing to push for a spot on a Team Europe at Bethpage. Phil Mickelson also showed some life, finishing in third place and bringing the HyFlyers to the podium for the first time ever. After some updates from PJ on the still-ongoing Dump in the Box Cologuard Classic, Andy and Brendan close this episode with some talk about player reaction to the proposed rollback as reported this week by Adam Schupak and a shoutout to Dustin Johnson.

Welcome to this week's edition of Next on the Tee! I hope your week has been filled with reasons to smile. If not, I'm sending some positive vibes your way and hoping to bring you a little mental relief over the next couple of hours. This week's episode, to quote Billy Joel, is in a New York State of Mind. All of my guests hail from New York, and we take a way-too-early look ahead to the Ryder Cup, including a discussion about Keegan Bradley with his former college coach at St. John's. Leading things off, our resident Director of Instruction, Tom Patri, joins me to dive into Ryder Cup predictions and early concerns. With the event set to take place at Bethpage State Park, a course that Tom grew up near, he'll give us insights on the layout and playing conditions. Plus, with six of the first seven winners on the PGA Tour this season being non-U.S. players, is it too soon to worry about Team USA's chances? Maybe it's time to start sending some positive energy out to them. Tom and I will break it all down in the first segment. Following TP, I have the privilege of welcoming back Frank Darby, former St. John's Men's Head Golf Coach and Co-Host of the On Course show on SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio. Frank, another New York native, has served as a rules official and has been involved in setting up tournaments at Bethpage, giving him firsthand knowledge of what players can expect at the Ryder Cup. And with Keegan Bradley—one of his former players—hoping to make the team as a player, Frank shares his perspective on if that's a good idea. We'll also get into Tiger Woods' potential move to the Champions Tour and what the PGA Tour should do about slow play. Frank is fantastic and has great golf insights!

Send us a textHere's the question: Is the First Tech - DCU merger of behemoths a sign of mergers to come or it is an outlier, a one-off deal that arose because of unique circumstances and histories??Kirk Kordeleski, onetime CEO at Bethpage, itself a member of the behemoth club, and now a SERP expert  with PARC Street Partners, and he comes with strong opinions abut credit union mergers.But there's more on the  show including Kordeleski's musing about the longevity of the credit union tax exemption - and how important it is to the credit union business model.Kordeleski also ponders the probable future of NCUA in an era of slashing federal spending and federal employee body counts.Just about all the credit union hot buttons get  pressed in this show..And Kordeleski also addresses this question: if you are the CEO of a $10 billion credit union that just now merges with a $5 billion credit union should you ping the board the next day and ask for a 50% pay hike.Place your bets now:Is this RIP for NCUA?Is it say goodnight to the tax exemption?Are mergers the best way for a credit union to grow?Or is interna; growth the shrewder option?And should that CEO ask for the 50% pay boost?Listen up.Like what you are hearing?

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== DEVOCIÓN MATUTINA PARA JÓVENES 2025“HOY ES TENDENCIA”Narrado por: Daniel RamosDesde: Connecticut, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist Church===================|| www.drministries.org ||===================03 de Febrero¡Quita los adornos!«Si alguien se alegra, alégrense con él; si alguien está triste, acompáñenlo en su tristeza». Romanos 12: 15, NBVEl 3 de febrero de 2021, Sara Pascucci encontró una carta anónima en su buzón que la reprendía por mantener las decoraciones navideñas frente a su casa. El mensaje finalizaba con las palabras: -Quita ya las luces navideñas, ¡casi es San Valentín!-. Sara no se molestó; al contrario, se sintió herida, pues su padre, que vivía con ella, había fallecido el 15 de enero de ese mismo año, víctima de la COVID-19.El padre de Sara había puesto las decoraciones poco después del Día de Acción de Gracias. Tras su fallecimiento, Sara no había tenido la fuerza para quitarlas, por lo que la carta resultó ser un golpe doloroso para ella. Inmediatamente, compartió la carta en el grupo de madres de Facebook de su comunidad y comentó: Hemos estado muy atareados con los arreglos funerales y el proceso de luto. No, no hemos quitado los adornos de Navidad, pero te pedimos que seas amable con todos, pues uno nunca sabe por lo que el otro está pasando.De inmediato, el buzón de Facebook de Sara se llenó de mensajes de solidaridad. A su casa llegaron flores, canastas de alimentos y tarjetas, y se organizó una recolecta para ayudar con los gastos del funeral. Sin embargo, lo más sorprendente fue que muchos de sus vecinos volvieron a colocar sus decoraciones navideñas como muestra de empatía. Aunque la Navidad ya había pasado, a mediados de febrero las luces volvieron a brillar en la comunidad de Bethpage.En el versículo de hoy, Pablo nos recuerda que ser cristiano va más allá de la relación interna entre Dios y uno mismo. También implica ponerse en los zapatos de los demás, mostrando empatía, solidaridad y compasión. Incluso podría llevar a acciones tangibles, como redecorar la casa, para demostrar que compartes la tristeza y el dolor del prójimo. Dado que el segundo mandamiento más importante del cristianismo es amar al prójimo «como a ti mismo», la empatía nunca pasará de moda y siempre debería ser una tendencia en la vida de los cristianos. Hoy, observa a tu alrededor, quizás Dios te esté llamando a mostrar compasión hacia alguien. Puede que solo se necesite una palabra, o tal vez se requiera redecorar tu casa para expresar ese amor y apoyo. 

Harris English comes out on top at Torrey on a week marred by slow play and sickness among the field - plus JT takes tour members to task over a need for more cooperation with TV partners to improve the tour telecasts after some less-than-ideal ratings numbers from the AmEx.

The never-ending golf news cycle leads to a jam-packed Friday episode as Andy and Brendan unpack a week's worth of stories and rumors heading into the weekend. TGL sent out some team-themed email blasts on Thursday afternoon, so this episode begins with more chatter about the screen golf league and its many marketing campaigns. Brendan and Andy read these team descriptions and discuss how a casual golf viewer might react upon reading that the Atlanta Drive represent the 365/24/7 nature of their city. In outdoor golf news, the Farmers Insurance Open had more withdrawals on Wednesday before play began for the week, with big names such as Will Zalatoris and Gary Woodland bowing out. The tournament is ongoing without a full field despite constant cries about players needing more opportunities to play on the PGA Tour. From there, Brendan and Andy discuss Eamon Lynch's interview with former PGA of America CEO Seth Waugh that was teased on the Wednesday episode earlier this week. First, Waugh is taking credit for Keegan Bradley's appointment as Ryder Cup captain for Bethpage and went into detail about how that choice came to be. Waugh also discussed the new PGA Tour Enterprises corporation and how that's changed the business of golf, wondering if the PGA of America would one day sell the Ryder Cup off. At the PGA Show this week, Adam Schupak sat down with current PGA of America CEO Derek Sprague, who made comments expressing some hesitancy with the proposed rollback starting in 2028. Andy and Brendan discuss what would happen if the rollback was further delayed or even cancelled and how that would impact the game on all levels. In less consequential news about the future of the game, Jordan Spieth committed to the AT&T Pebble Beach, presumably entering via a sponsor exemption, and The Open Championship will return to St Andrews in 2027. PJ chimes in to tell Andy that "Sticks Boy" Noah Kahan is now an investor in the Ballfrogs, which leads the show down a rabbit hole of ranking pop stars. This beefy Friday episode ends with one golf advice email about an upcoming golf trip impacted by a lifelong phobia.

For our second edition of NLU Special Projects, we continue to look at the unbelievable difficulty of booking tee times at certain public golf courses as we head to Long Island and Bethpage State Park - the host of this year's Ryder Cup as well as the 2002 & 2009 US Opens and the 2019 PGA Championship.

Sepp Straka wins at Mr. Dye's Stadium Course in La Quinta with JT coming in second by two shots. We talk all things Amex, some notable WDs, the Genesis moving from Riv due to the LA fires, Tyrrell winning in Dubai, Hovland's quotes, and the DP World Tour's viral social video from earlier this week.

(00:01) Golf Course Tee Time Tradition This chapter explores the importance of distance in golf, featuring insights from long drive champion Michael Michaelides. Michael shares his experience working at Bethpage, highlighting the unique tradition of golfers arriving the night before to secure tee times. He recounts the intimidating presence of his former boss, Dick Smith, and explains the logistics of securing a spot at Bethpage, from early morning shifts to the allocation of bakery tickets. The conversation emphasizes the enduring customs at Bethpage, including the requirement to walk the course and the limited availability of phone reservations. Michael's anecdotes offer a fascinating glimpse into the culture and history of one of golf's iconic locations. (13:46) Navigating the Challenging Golf Course This chapter explores the concept of truly enjoying a golf course and getting one's money's worth. We discuss how struggling through a tough course, losing numerous golf balls, and hacking out of rough areas may not equate to fun or value for some players. Instead, playing from the appropriate tees and focusing on personal achievements, like making pars or birdies, can offer a more rewarding experience. We also touch on the physical challenges of certain courses, specifically a tough 490-yard uphill hole known as "Cardiac Hill," and the importance of maintaining composure under such strenuous conditions. Lastly, we highlight the evolution of caddie programs at golf courses, enhancing the playing experience, and share personal preferences for carrying lighter bags to navigate difficult terrains. (23:11) Maximizing Golf Swing Power and Velocity This chapter addresses the complexities behind achieving optimal ball velocity in both baseball and golf. We explore the surprising phenomenon where attempting to throw or swing harder can actually reduce velocity. The conversation delves into the mechanics of using ground force effectively, the importance of attack angles, and the nuances of pressure shifts in the downswing. We compare the techniques of long drivers to regular golfers, highlighting how different body movements and equipment choices affect performance. Additionally, we discuss the physical demands and potential impacts on the body, offering insights into how long drivers manage to sustain their high-speed swings without incurring significant injuries. (32:06) Impact Bag Training for Golfers This chapter focuses on an impactful training drill shared by Sean "The Beast" Fister, a three-time world champion. We explore the mechanics and potential risks of the drill, which involves using a heavy aluminum bat and a heavy bag to ensure proper impact alignments and force transfer. Despite the intensity and risk of injury, the drill is highly effective for stress relief and skill enhancement. Jeff Smith then discusses an innovative adaptation to make the drill safer: using an inflatable ball inside an impact bag shell, allowing golfers to practice with reduced risk while still improving their impact force and alignment. This adaptation highlights a safer yet effective way to enhance golfing techniques without causing injury. (36:38) Impact Bag and Sponge Training This chapter explores the innovative techniques and adjustments I made to improve the application of force in golf swings. We discuss how I experimented with different materials like a deflated volleyball and car wash sponges to create a lightweight, yet effective, impact training tool. By tweaking the weight and positioning of these sponges, I found a way to help golfers feel the right amount of resistance at the moment of impact, enhancing their ball speed and overall performance. Additionally, I share insights from a memorable interaction with Sean, highlighting the importance of finding the right training aids to achieve the desired results in golf. (40:22) The Evolution of Golf Teaching This chapter focuses on the journey of an experienced teacher who transitioned from traditional methods of golf instruction to more dynamic, purpose-based drills. He recounts a meeting with an influential figure who provided guidance and support, emphasizing the value of mentorship. The discussion touches on the contrast between the rigid, line-drawing approach he initially encountered and his own athletic background, which informed his preference for a more fluid and dynamic style of coaching. He reflects on the evolution of golf instruction and coaching, highlighting how modern techniques now recognize golfers as athletes, utilizing drills that are more in tune with natural body movements and timing. This approach, he argues, is more effective and resonates better with students, contributing to their continuous improvement. (43:27) Long Drive Techniques and Tips This chapter explores the importance of safety in training techniques, emphasizing the use of sponges to prevent injuries. We discuss how certain methods, like using an aluminum bat on a heavy bag, may not be suitable for everyone and should be approached with caution. Additionally, we touch on the relationship between skills in long drive competitions and overall golf proficiency, highlighting how a background in golf can enhance performance in long drive events. Lastly, we encourage listeners to learn from experienced professionals to improve their own golf game.

Keegan Bradley joins the show (10:24) to discuss being named U.S. Ryder Cup captain for next year's battle at Bethpage.

Then we talk: the Presidents Cup vs the Ryder Cup; Spieth, JT, and Rory's interesting careers; Tropical Storm Debby's impact; and do Closest To The Pin.You can find every episode of this show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or YouTube.

We talk about the importance of alignment in golf, how subtle changes can lead to significant improvements, and the psychological aspects of trusting one's new alignment under pressure. James shares his approach to helping golfers correct their aim and alignment, emphasizing that understanding shot shape and target placement can often resolve issues without drastic swing changes. (23:32) Golf Course Conversations This chapter takes us to Harbor Links Golf Course in Port Washington, New York, where we explore the bustling golf scene between Bethpage and Manhattan. We discuss the high demand for lessons at Harbor Links, where James, the instructor, is fully booked, especially during the summer. We touch on the logistical challenges and conveniences for New Yorkers traveling with golf clubs and the competitive environment among top golf instructors in the area. Additionally, we share anecdotes about the unique aspects of living in New York, including the high cost of parking in Manhattan and the ease of accessing golf courses via public transportation. Finally, we humorously reflect on the difference in lifestyle and traffic between New York and other regions like South Florida and the Midwest. (38:13) Positive Impact of Golf Coaches This chapter focuses on the influential role of coaches in shaping young athletes, particularly in golf. James Hong shares his insights on how instilling self-confidence and a sense of personal value in young players can have a lasting impact on their lives and careers. He recounts stories of former students who have achieved great success, both in sports and other fields, emphasizing the importance of recognizing their progress and efforts. We also touch on the broader challenges golfers face, such as the difficulty of breaking 90, and the pitfalls of seeking improvement through generic online advice. The importance of personalized coaching and the fulfillment that comes from seeing students succeed is highlighted throughout.

Will it be a good pick? They also discuss Xander Schauffele's quotes that Keegan needs to cut down on the mandatory dinners. They eventual get to the schedule for the week, which starts with an In-Out-Alternate for the newly-named Kentucky event that will remain the Barbasol here.
