We've all been there. Should you give that three footer? Should you not? Should your opponent really be making you putt this? On this episode of Golf IQ, LKD and Sam Weinman explore the ins and outs of giving putts.
Today, I'm sharing a recap of my experience and learning lessons from participating in my first-ever Member-Member Tournament. In this episode, I take you inside my very first member-member tournament at Tampa Palms Golf & Country Club—a 63-hole gauntlet of match play, missteps, and mindset mastery. You'll hear firsthand stories of: hitting 12 fairways on day one (and what fell apart after that) navigating USGA match play rules I hadn't previously known the temptation to confront cheating—and how I chose to respond coaching my partner through his mental spiral mid-round laughing off bad shots to stay in the fight and how I learned to protect my energy from angry, frustrated playing partners If you're serious about developing mental toughness, emotional resiliency, and learning to perform under pressure, you'll take away more than a few insights from this candid tournament recap. I walk through what went well, what didn't, and the tangible mindset and skill improvements I'm now laser-focused on. And of course, I share how this entire experience translates beyond the course, too. This one's packed with real stories, practical lessons, and reminders to keep showing up, even when the conditions—and competition—get tough. Get your pencils ready and start listening.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Twitter: @parsoverbogeys Key Takeaways: Tournament Golf Exposes the Truth: The added pressure, emotion, and unpredictability of match play reveal where your mindset and game are truly at—and where they need to grow. Stay in the Fight—Always: Even after a bad shot or penalty, you're only one great swing away from turning the hole around. Never mentally check out. Control What You Can Control: You can't police every rule or correct every shady scorecard. What you can control is your attitude, effort, and energy. Your Emotional State Is Contagious: Whether it's your playing partner melting down or opponents bickering, you must protect your energy and stay anchored in your process. Audit Your Self-Talk and Body Language: The way you speak to yourself after a mistake either drains or fuels your next shot. Choose awareness over autopilot. Routine Is Your Reset Button: A consistent pre-shot routine was the anchor during high-pressure moments. When things go sideways, your routine keeps you grounded. Key Quotes: “You are not judge, jury, and executioner out there. Control your ball—and your response.” “Even when I hit a ball OB, I stayed in the fight. I didn't skip my routine. I didn't give up.” “Every missed shot is just an invitation to execute the next one better.” “Tournament golf just hits different—and I fucking loved it.” “You can't afford to leak energy worrying about things beyond your control.” “Pat's opponent lived rent-free in his head—and it cost him the round. Don't give away your power.” “I may not have played my best golf, but mentally, I showed up like a pro. And that's the foundation of what's coming next.” Time Stamps: 00:00: Introduction to Member Member Weekend 05:03: First Impressions and Initial Experiences 10:58: Learning the Rules of Match Play 15:01: Mental Resilience and Self-Talk 20:34: Tournament Golf: The Thrill of Competition 24:47: Navigating the Course Challenges 27:28: Lessons from Competitive Play 29:45: Staying Committed to the Process 32:14: Managing Emotions and Energy on the Course 35:49: The Importance of Team Dynamics 38:18: Reclaiming Your Power 40:05: Identifying Areas for Improvement 44:54: Reflecting on the Experience
The annual Golf Digest Company Match Play is BACK. LKD and Sam Weinman give an inside look at how even a company solely focused on golf can still have issues setting up matches. Most of our problems, however, are easily solved by using USGA handicaps. Now if we could only do something about scheduling ...

On this episode we have award winning sports commentator Tony Husband, Apple TV MLS Season Pass Match Play-by-Play Announcer back on the show, but this time we talk about the match this week against San Diego FC. IG: @tony_husbandX: @TonyHusband
Fantastic win from Warrnambool's favourite son Marc Leishman in Florida at the weekend, and we begin today's show chatting about the win....Marc becomes the third Aussie to win a tournament in the last couple of weeks, following Min Woo and Steve Allen. Mark loves the 'drive, chip, and putt' competition and thinks there should be more of them prior to tournaments.We discuss the elephant in the room, will we get the world feed for The Masters. Neither Nick or Mark has been able to get clarity. They're hopeful that we get Jim Nance and the traditional team. We discuss how wonderful Jim Nance is, and how long he has left commentating. Mark raises the LIV commentators. Nick and Mark feel that the LIV commentators get too excited too early in the tournaments.Nick says the Fedex Cup should be Matchplay, Mark says the 'handicap system reeks of someone who does not understand golf', and wants more matchplay in golf. We've had our Masters preview pod, but we can't help but talk about Augusta again. Mark asks Nick about the creek on 13, Nick explains how he approached it and why, plus which holes suit lefties and which suit righties.In a prelude to Nicks Top 5 'unwatchable golfers', despite his winning form, Nick and Mark comment that Brian Harman or, as we prefer to call him, Ricky, is a great putter with great power, but an 'unwatchable golfer'.Following some anonymous feedback to Mark, we discuss the prices clubs charge at members courses, specifically guest fees. What is causing it, is it too much? Mark would you like you to send in what your clubs member/guest fee structure is. Whilst we're talking complaints. Mark reckons Nick and Third Man have been taking advantage of his generosity, and he has a crack at both of them on the pod. Harsh.Plenty of feedback, lots on the aim point comments from last week, including a couple of whacks - and one wolfpacker calls Nick and Mark 'a couple of old grandpas'. Clearly they're wrong, neither have grandchildren. And wolfpacker Tom from California has sent in his swing for Nick and Mark to review.PING global. Big news. After last weeks excellent trumpet playing by Anthony from Woodlands, our lawyer Denis Denutto has reviewed the legalities around Timmy Trumpet. We may end up in court. So Nick has found a new, legal PING global results intro which he plays. Oh, and gives heaps of results. No masterclass this week, but thanks to Frank and the team at watchMynumbers it returns next week.We do the show from Titleist and FootJoy HQ, thanks to our great partners:Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best.

CLUBLAND STORIES March: Mixed Gender Match Play, a gate on the course boundary, determining the reference point, accidentally substituting golf balls, and marking a ball - THE GRQ PODCAST EP135We are back with Episode 135 of the GolfRules Questions Podcast, and this week it is our favourite episode of the month, Clubland Stories. DK has a hypothetical question about a mixed gender match, whilst pedanticus is a little too penaltycus over a pitch mark. Then we have the nerd and bill tell us about some more golf shop stuff ups. We also have another audio question sent in by Dear John, and this time he gives us the answer, just in case.So whether you are cooking rice, or melting gold, please enjoy this episode of the golfrules questions podcast.GRQOTW 134: In stroke play, a marker enters the scores in the wrong boxes on the scorecard, can they correct it after they have returned the scorecard, or is it too late? It is too late. Whilst the hole numbers could be changed prior to the scorecard being returned, it is too late if this is not done before the scorecard has been returned.If a marker signs in the player's spot, and the player signs in the marker's spot, and the scorecard is returned, is that also too late to correct it, or does it even need to be corrected?It does not even need to be corrected. As long as their are two signatures on the scorecard, it will be accepted.GRQOTW135: A player's ball, played from the putting green, is deflected into the hole by another player's caddie, who accidentally walked across the line of play. The original ball, or another ball, must be replaced on its orginal spot and the stroke must be replayed.GOLFRULES QUESTIONS MERCHANDISEGet yourself a Roo&Coo polo: https://golfrulesquestions.myspreadshop.com/.DO YOU HAVE A RULES OF GOLF QUESTION:Email - golfrules.questions@gmail.comWANT TO TEST YOUR RULES OF GOLF KNOWLEDGE?Head to: www.golfrulesquestions.comWANT A QUICK GOLF RULES REFERENCEHead to Instagram: @golfrules_questions (https://www.instagram.com/golfrules_questions/?hl=en)OR JOIN THE FACEBOOK COMMUNITYhttps://www.facebook.com/golfrulesquestionsLISTEN TO THE GRQ PODCAST ON APPLE OR SPOTIFYClick here: https://anchor.fm/golfrules-questionsSUBSCRIBE to GOLFRULES QUESTIONS https://bit.ly/2I8KrVH for all your golf rules#golfrules #GolfRulesQuestions #blakey
(00:00) Golf, March Madness, and Match Play This chapter kicks off with a lively discussion about March Madness, with hopes and bets on whether the Indiana Hoosiers will make it past the bubble stage. There's some light-hearted banter about the need for better coaching and players for Indiana, reminiscing about their past glory days. The conversation then shifts to a humorous anecdote from the Approach Shot podcast featuring Michael Floyd, a former NFL player, who claims to hit his driver 400 yards. We explore the intricacies of such claims, touching on the challenges of controlling high-speed drives and the importance of precise club face positioning. Additionally, the chapter briefly mentions the specialized equipment used in long drive competitions, highlighting how they are designed to minimize spin for maximum distance. (13:06) Mental Strategy in Match Play Golf This chapter explores the psychological strategies employed in match play golf, emphasizing the importance of playing the opponent rather than just the course. We discuss various tactics such as creating pressure by not conceding putts, leveraging the advantage of being the first to reach the green, and using the mental state of the opponent to one's benefit. The conversation touches on the subtle art of maintaining a mental edge through seemingly simple actions, like practicing a putt after it's been conceded, to build confidence and unsettle the opponent. Additionally, we highlight the balance between mental games and pure skill, ultimately asserting that good golf skills are irreplaceable. This insightful discussion offers a glimpse into the mind games that complement the physical aspect of golf, with an understanding that both play crucial roles in winning matches. (21:45) The Beauty of Match Play Golf This chapter explores the engaging and competitive world of match play golf, emphasizing its unique appeal, especially during adverse weather conditions where winning a hole is all that matters. We discuss the prominence of match play in the Ryder Cup and its commonality in Europe, where four-ball matches are the norm, and how playing with uneven groups can be challenging. The conversation also touches on cultural experiences, such as playing golf in Scotland, and highlights the enjoyment of adapting to the local customs, including forming a "four ball" and joining other players for a round. Alongside the golf discussion, there's a light-hearted reflection on the host's relocation to Indian Wells, California, the diverse community there, and a nostalgic mention of attending a Styx concert, contrasting the youthful vibe of the Coachella music festival. (34:43) Navigating the Challenges of Alternate Shot This chapter takes us through the dynamics and challenges of playing alternate shot format in golf, highlighting the importance of camaraderie and mutual understanding between partners. We explore the mental pressures unique to this format, emphasizing the added emotional burden of playing not just for oneself, but also to avoid disappointing a partner. The conversation touches on how golf is as much a mental game as it is physical, often bringing about emotional responses, particularly in high-stakes settings like junior tournaments. We discuss the importance of focusing on personal achievements rather than solely on competitive outcomes, acknowledging that individual progress can be overshadowed by the broader competitive context. Additionally, we reflect on the intricacies of golf handicaps and the potential misunderstandings they can create, underscoring the need for a balanced perspective on personal performance in the sport. (44:05) Exploring Match Play Golf Variations This chapter focuses on the exciting ways to enhance your golf experience through different game formats. We explore the benefits of incorporating match play into your routine, emphasizing how it encourages strategic thinking and personal growth. Additionally, we discuss the intriguing concept of playing worst ball, where you tackle challenges by playing your least favorable shots. By alternating between worst ball and best ball on different holes, you can create a dynamic and engaging game, almost like a personal scramble. These variations promise to bring fun and improvement to your golf outings.

Wisconsin.Golf's Rob Hernandez talks with Marquette men's golf coach Steve Bailey on his team's outlook this spring.
Aaaand we're back for 2025. How you doing? Good break? You look relaxed. Have you done something with your hair? Very nice.But back to the pod. We're live from Titleist and Footjoy HQ, where we'll be pretty much most weeks from now, very exciting. And we welcome Titleist and Footjoy as new major partners of Talk Birdie To Me, along with our long-term partners watchMynumbers, PING and the Golf Clearance Outlet. And another new partner Betr, who will have some special offers for Talk Birdie listeners in coming weeks.Onto the pod....Mark has had far too much time on his hands to think about the Australian Open and he barely lets Nick or Dan get a 'happy new year' in before he launches off on the Australian Open 2025, the format and the timing. He asks 'what is going on at Golf Australia' and reiterates that the 'experiment' is surely over. If Nick and Mark had their way there would be either no Open in 2025, moving to February 2026, or hold one late this year and a second almost right away in February. We discuss the comments from Cam Smith and Matt Jones last week. Mark suggests March 1 is a good deadline to have clarity from Golf Australia.We chat about the TGL, Nick loves the venue, and he talks about the best driving range he ever saw in the US. Last week LIV golfer Eugenio López-Chacarra had a red hot crack at LIV for not delivering to him what they said they would. We discuss. Tissues at the ready, and small violins, it's very sad.Nick talks about a possible format change for the PGA Tour Championship, he outlines his proposed format, and Mark counter-proposes his. We discuss matchplay vs strokeplay, which leads to a chat about the Australian Amateur event this week.Nick names the Tour Pro who has 'the worst grip on tour', and talks to rumours that he has been adjusting his swing in the offseason.We have big news for Talk Birdie To Me....which we chat about just prior to the Turn. Exciting!Following the TGL chat, we find out what songs Nick and Mark would choose to walk out to. There may be a singalong. Nick's Top 5 things he'd like to see in 2025 is a cracker. Being the first pod of 2025, not a lot of feedback, but we've got some. Nick's PING Global results leads to Mark calling Hideki Matsuyama's 35-under performance 'B-Grade'. Surely not!Unfortunately, we end the pod on a disappointing note as Mark tells a joke. Apologies.We're coming from Titleist and Footjoy HQ, and we're here thanks to our great partners:The watchMynumbers app, play smarter and use your data.

Understanding how to play Multi-Match is where the fun begins. The jackpot for a fun in-state game is best explained by John Martin of The Maryland Lottery as 2025 has begun with some big jackpots, new games and local winners. The post John Martin of Maryland Lottery discusses million dollar Multi-Match play and big winner to start the year first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.
Andy and Brendan are back to recap the first PGA Tour event of 2025, a Hideki Matsuyama win at The Sentry. Andy is fired up about the a Bears win in Green Bay to end the NFL season and Brendan now has a playoff game to look forward to with the Commanders on Sunday Night Football next week. The golf talk begins with a look at Hideki's performance in his season-opening win, as he set the PGA Tour scoring record at a final tally of -35 for the week. Andy ponders whether Hideki's a Hall of Famer and the two try to slot him into a tier among the biggest names in pro golf. Kapalua takes some shots for producing yet another birdiefest, with chatter that they could be making the course into a par 72 for next year's event. Andy and Brendan then discuss Collin Morikawa's runner up finish and wonder why he has not tried to add speed to his swing like so many of his counterparts. In news, the Tour Championship may move to a match-play format, something Andy has been calling for for years. Peppy Peter and Adam Scott aren't sold on the idea, and Brendan shares some quotes from the two about other potential formats for the last event of the year. There's some optimism about the TGL debut on Tuesday night, as Ludvig will represent The Bay against Xander and NYGC on ESPN for the first-ever match. Andy and Brendan debate whether TGL will work, what "working" looks like in this sense, and applaud the amount of content surrounding the league's launch so far. Finally, this episode ends with a Sports Minute celebrating the merciful end of an awful NFL season for the Bears, Browns, and Jets.
Join us for another episode of The Smylie Show, as Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme break down the record-setting week that saw Hideki Matsuyama smash the 72-hole PGA TOUR scoring record at the Sentry. From incredible wedge play to a successful debut for his center-shafted putter, we take a dive into the factors behind Hideki's dominance at Kapalua - including favorable conditions that yielded low scores across the board. Plus, get insights into Collin Morikawa's runner-up finish, and some new routines that are key to his iron play.The guys also dive into equipment changes across the Tour, including Max Homa's move to Cobra/Puma/Lululemon, and buzz around some new equipment put into play this week.

After the conclusion of another team match play event, Andy Johnson is joined by Shane Bacon to discuss the place of match play in the professional game. The two recap last week's Presidents Cup, evaluating the format and what changes need to be made in order to improve the event. They then turn to the concept of match play as a whole, advocating for more match play events in the professional game. They highlight the format of match play forcing players to become more aggressive throughout a round, often making for more compelling television than a 72-hole stroke play event. Andy and Shane brainstorm ideas for potential match play tournaments, such as a mixed-gender event with the PGA Tour and LPGA Tour, a professional event based on college alumni, and more.
