With Tiger Woods rumored to return and the 2026 TGL schedule now revealed, the question is—can the startup indoor golf league survive another season? In this week's episode of The Golf Podcast we break down the newly released 2026 TGL season schedule and what it means for fans, players, and the future of the league. With the schedule now official, all eyes are on the Easter eggs hinting at Tiger Woods' long-awaited return to competitive golf. We take a closer look at how much Tiger can realistically move the needle for TGL viewership and whether star power alone is enough to keep this league thriving. Beyond Tiger, we dig into the broadcast schedule itself—nine matches on ESPN, one on ABC, and a streamlined format designed to avoid last year's confusion—and what those programming choices signal about TGL's long-term vision. We'll also revisit the ratings from season one, the spike that came with Tiger's debut, and the mid-season slump that left many fans questioning whether TGL has staying power. From fan reactions on social media to the growing debate over whether team golf can truly build loyalty beyond Ryder Cup and Presidents Cup formats, we unpack it all. Is TGL the “future of golf” or simply another fun, prime-time way to watch the game we love?

Controversy is swirling around the Ryder Cup, and everyone wants to know the same thing — who's REALLY to blame? In this episode of The Golf Podcast we'll break down all the drama and controversy surrounding the latest Ryder Cup and ask the big question — who's really to blame? Keegan Bradley is already calling for a major rule change after the controversial “envelope rule” cost the U.S. team a crucial half-point, but is this just sour grapes or a legitimate issue the Ryder Cup needs to address before the next match? We'll also take a hard look at Bradley's captaincy decisions, from questionable pairings to sticking with struggling players like Collin Morikawa and Scottie Scheffler, and whether those choices ended up gifting Europe momentum. Beyond the captaincy, the fan behavior at Bethpage is also under the microscope after several incidents crossed the line, raising concerns about whether the home crowd actually hurt Team USA instead of helping them. And of course, we'll discuss the dominance of the European squad — one of the strongest teams ever assembled, with players like Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood leading the charge. From data-driven strategy missteps to unforced errors and the ongoing pay-to-play controversy, this episode dives into everything that went wrong for Team USA and what has to change before the next Ryder Cup.

The tension around this year's Ryder Cup is already boiling over — and it may be heading straight for another meltdown. In this week's episode of The Golf Podcast we'll dive into the growing drama building ahead of the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black. Things are already getting heated, with Bryson DeChambeau firing verbal shots and Rory McIlroy firing right back, setting the stage for what could be a fiery showdown at Bethpage. Rory has even warned that something is “inevitable” to happen in New York, drawing comparisons to the boiling point we saw in Rome two years ago. On top of that, the pay controversy is stealing headlines as Team USA players are now set to receive $500,000 each, while the European side continues to frame their effort as purely for pride and country. Luke Donald has already suggested that this change could backfire, especially if the New York crowd turns on the Americans should they underperform. Between chirping players, emotional captains, and the weight of national pride, this Ryder Cup is shaping up to be one of the most explosive in history. We'll break down the key quotes, the history fueling Rory vs. Bryson, and how the money debate could add even more fuel to the fire. Strap in—this Ryder Cup might just be headed for another meltdown.

This latest surprising shake-up has fans wondering: did LIV Golf cut ties with the very man who made it possible? In this episode of The Golf Podcast, we dive into one of the most surprising shake-ups in professional golf: Greg Norman has officially cut ties with LIV Golf. While Norman stepped down as CEO earlier this year, many assumed he would always hold some role as the league's figurehead. Instead, he's now completely out—raising big questions about what this means for LIV's future. We break down Norman's farewell statement, player reactions, and why some insiders believe his contentious style may have become more of a roadblock than an asset. Was Norman the ultimate disruptor who got LIV off the ground, only to stand in the way of its next phase? Or did the league do him a disservice after he put his reputation on the line to launch it? We explore whether this move clears the path for potential partnerships, renewed conversations with governing bodies, and even the possibility of softening tensions with the PGA Tour. Plus, we discuss what Norman's absence could mean for player recruiting, fan perception, and the league's long-term stability. Don't miss this deep dive into the shake-up that could redefine LIV Golf's future.

Keegan Bradley is making sure Team USA doesn't repeat the costly Ryder Cup mistake that's haunted them in the past with a bold move that could be the game-changer they need to take back the Cup. In this episode of The Golf Podcast we break down how Keegan Bradley is rewriting the Ryder Cup 2025 playbook at Bethpage Black. After Team USA was criticized in Rome for their “disgraceful preparation” and taking five weeks of rest before the matches, Bradley is making sure history doesn't repeat itself. He's sending nearly the entire U.S. Ryder Cup team to compete in the Procore Championship to stay sharp and avoid the dreaded rust versus rest debate. On top of that, the team has rented a massive team house in Napa with a dedicated Ryder Cup–style team room designed to build camaraderie, chemistry, and unity ahead of one of the most hostile Ryder Cup environments ever. Meanwhile, Rory McIlroy and Team Europe arrive with momentum, depth, and experience, calling themselves more accomplished than the group that won in 2023. With legends like Ian Poulter urging them to embrace the “cauldron” of the New York crowd, Europe is ready for the challenge. We dive into whether Bradley's bold strategy of playing the Procore, building team chemistry, and keeping players in form could finally give Team USA the edge they need to win back the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black.

If you've ever wondered how the heck to find a legit golf instructor (and not just some YouTube-taught swing whisperer on the driving range), this is the episode for you.Too many golfers waste years (and thousands of dollars) working with instructors who don't actually change their swing — they just slap a Band-Aid on the shanks and hope for the best. In this episode, Mike Granato & Shaun Webb break down how to find a real swing coach who understands both the art and the science of instruction — including what to look for, what to avoid, and the types of “teachers” that do more harm than good.We unpack the difference between resort triage lessons and true swing transformation, the value of coaches who adapt with tech and data (3D motion, force plates, etc.), and how to spot the red flags — like "method teachers" who teach everyone the same cookie-cutter swing, or social media coaches who have never taught in the real world.You'll walk away with a filter system that makes your search way easier — and ensures you're not jumping teacher to teacher, wasting time and regressing. Because once you find your coach, you commit.✅ Learn what separates top-tier instructors from the fakes ✅ Why 3D motion, force plates, and experience matter ✅ How swing patterns, mobility, and individuality affect coaching ✅ When to commit and stop jumping from teacher to teacher ✅ How to use YouTube strategically to vet coaches in advanceWant to take your swing to the next level? It starts with finding the right guide.

After a two-month hiatus, Geoff Shackelford and Lawrence Donegan return with a look at the forthcoming Walker Cup at Cypress Point Club and Ryder Cup at the end of the month.

Keegan Bradley just revealed his Ryder Cup picks—and fans can't believe he left himself off the team...but was it the right choice? In this episode of The Golf Podcast we'll break down what might be the most talked-about Ryder Cup captain's picks in years. Keegan Bradley has officially revealed his U.S. team for Bethpage Black—and in a shocking twist, he left himself off the roster. We dive into the big question: did Keegan fold under the pressure of being both captain and player, or was this an unselfish move to give Team USA the best chance to win? You'll hear our thoughts on legends like Tom Watson saying a playing captain “just can't be done,” Rory's take from the European side, and Keegan's own words from the press conference. We also go pick-by-pick through the roster, debating who was snubbed, who might have been a safer choice, and whether names like Collin Morikawa, Cameron Young, and Sam Burns were really the best options. Could Keegan himself have been the hotter hand heading into the event? And how will rookies like Ben Griffin handle the Ryder Cup spotlight? With the U.S. desperate to avoid another home loss, every decision matters. Join us as we analyze the roster, weigh the risks, and ask if Bradley's bold call will pay off—or haunt Team USA.
