From navigating the road in a trusty conversion van with an atlas at her side to staying with host families across the country, Donna shares a vivid portrait of what life was like as a young pro in the pre-GPS era.We explore the grind of rookie life, the lessons learned from traveling, qualifying, and adjusting to life on the LPGA Tour—and then we follow Donna as she breaks through for her first win at the 1993 Ping Cellular One Championship in Portland. She walks us shot-by-shot through that memorable week at Columbia Edgewater and relives the nerves, the fighter jets overhead, and the broken window that helped ease her tension en route to victory.Her momentum builds as she quickly validates her breakthrough with a second win in Tucson just months later, then rides that confidence into her career-defining triumph at the 1994 Nabisco Dinah Shore. Donna candidly recounts the drama of that Sunday showdown with Dame Laura Davies, the wrong club that nearly derailed her, and the clutch putt that sealed her first major title. And yes—she tells the story behind restarting the now-iconic tradition of jumping into Poppie's Pond.With warmth, humor, and deep insight, Donna reveals how her belief in herself evolved, how friendships and rivalries shaped her, and how the unique spirit of women's golf in the 1990s continues to resonate today.This episode is a must-listen for fans of the LPGA, major championship lore, and the timeless stories that define the game.Give Bruce & Mike some feedback via Text.Support the showFollow our show and/or leave a review/rating on: Our Website https://www.forethegoodofthegame.com/reviews/new/ Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fore-the-good-of-the-game/id1562581853 Spotify Podcasts https://open.spotify.com/show/0XSuVGjwQg6bm78COkIhZO?si=b4c9d47ea8b24b2d About "FORE the Good of the Game” is a golf podcast featuring interviews with World Golf Hall of Fame members, winners of major championships and other people of influence in and around the game of golf.

With her trademark blend of humor and humility, Donna offers insight into what set that generation apart and why records like Kathy Whitworth's may still stand the test of time.We revisit some of Donna's most meaningful victories, including her emotional win at the 1997 Welch's/Circle K Championship and a co-ed triumph alongside Mike Hulbert at the JC Penney Classic—where a cold-topped tee shot and an unexpected win over a young Tiger Woods made for an unforgettable memory.From fishing boat mishaps and casino lessons with Laura Davies to spirited karaoke bus rides through Japan, Donna shares lighthearted stories from overseas exhibitions that cemented lifelong friendships and revealed the camaraderie of life on tour. She also opens up about the difficult decision to step away from competitive golf, the life changes that prompted it, and her seamless transition into broadcasting and teaching.This episode offers a rich blend of laughter, candor, and perspective, as Donna reveals the highs and challenges of a professional golf career—and the importance of faith, family, and finding joy in the journey.

Will Doctor gives you the sharpest card for the John Deere Classic. -Reviewing Detroit -Discussing top 8 favs on odds board -2 matchups -2 t20's -3 outrights (33/1, 80/1, 80/1) -Sleeper, 3 FRP -2 lineups, scoring, best bet Will Doctor opens his podcast with enthusiasm over Aldrich Potgieter's dramatic win at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. At just 20 years old, Potgieter emerged victorious in a five-hole playoff against Max Gray Sherman and Chris Kirk. Doctor notes he had picked Potgieter pre-tournament at 125-1 odds, resulting in a monumental gain of 125.8 units that flipped his season from -72.9 to +52.8 units. Potgieter's rounds of 62-70-65-69 highlighted both brilliance and resilience, especially his Saturday bogey-free 65 that earned him a two-shot lead. Despite criticism that most birdies came on the front nine, Doctor praises his short game, particularly ranking fifth in strokes gained around the greens in round three and gaining over a stroke total in that category. Chris Kirk, a six-time PGA Tour winner, had a promising start with back-to-back 65s. Despite dealing with recent game struggles and nearly withdrawing from the U.S. Open, he performed well and missed chances to win with two putts inside 16 feet on 18, in both regulation and the playoff. Max Gray Sherman impressed with birdies on two of his final three holes to make the playoff, including a 35-foot birdie on 16. Though he missed several putts in the playoff, Sherman's calm demeanor and improved ball striking stood out, crediting his caddy Adam Barmer. Doctor sees Sherman as a strong future contender. Doctor critiques Twitter pundits who downplayed Potgieter's Saturday round and emphasizes the significance of the playoff diversity: a 20-year-old, 30-year-old, and 40-year-old competing. He applauds CBS's emotional broadcast moments, such as shots of the players' fathers during the finale. Other notable performances included Will Gordon saving his PGA Tour card, Monday qualifier Brett White making the cut, and rising stars like Michael Thorbjornsen and Jackson Suber getting in the mix. He recaps bets: Potgieter's win was the headline; Champ and Sherman top-20 picks also cashed. Picks that failed included Stephen Jaeger, who struggled with his worst driving week in 25 starts, and Lee Hodges, who fell from contention with a poor third round. As he pivots to the John Deere Classic, Doctor emphasizes traits needed at TPC Deer Run—bombers off the tee, sharp wedge play inside 125 yards, and strong putting on bentgrass. He notes the course has the ninth-widest fairways on Tour, making driving accuracy less critical but not to be ignored. He analyzes top players: passes on Ben Griffin due to fatigue, but likes Jason Day for a top-10 finish citing strong approach stats from 125-150 yards. He dismisses Denny McCarthy at 28-1 due to recurring poor third rounds, weak approach metrics, and no PGA wins. JT Poston is faded for weak iron stats despite being a past Deere champion. Si Woo Kim is heavily criticized—missed cuts, poor putting, and negative recent stats. Doctor proposes betting Jason Day over Si Woo Kim and two other Kim fade matchups. Doctor's top pick is Michael Thorbjornsen at 33-1, citing elite driving (2nd on tour), strong recent finishes, and solid putting. Thriston Lawrence is his second outright at 80-1, noting improved ball striking and three top finishes in recent events, including T12 at Oakmont. Cam Champ, also at 80-1, rounds out the outrights. Champ has been positive in all stat categories the last two weeks and historically played well at Deer Run. Other bets include Jackson Koivun over Quade Cummins, Jason Day top 10 (+225), Champ top 20 (+320), and Thorbjornsen top 20 (+137) as the best bet. Doctor offers three first-round top-10 picks: Thorbjornsen, Pearson Cootie, and Champ. He concludes with two DFS lineups and predicts the winning score at -23.

It's a throwback audio episode with Brendan using his Airpods after finding himself in a travel delay. Nevertheless, Andy is on cloud nine over on Westy Island after Lee Westwood qualified for this month's Open Championship at Royal Portrush. The two reminisce about Westy's t-4 performance and stand-up morals at the 2019 Open before running through the rest of the 2025 qualifiers from overseas. They are particularly chuffed by Richard Teder, a 20-year-old from Estonia who holed out for eagle in a playoff to secure his spot at Portrush. Andy wonders if Dick Teder is the first player in a new generation of golfers - the Rory (Sabbatini) generation. LIV's 2026 schedule was leaked and the league won't make a stop in the United States until mid-May. Brendan and Andy run through the dates and the travel plans needed to play at majors throughout the world, such as going from Spain to Shinnecock Hills for the U.S. Open. From there, it's time for some lock-hammer-fire picks for the John Deere Classic at TPC Deere Run. The "Champion House" is back and is sure to be catnip for the entirety of the week. It's the strongest field in tournament history and there's no better example of that than Rickie Fowler returning to the Quad Cities for the first time since 2010. Andy shares a little 2010 time capsule to contextualize how long its been since Rickie played the Deere and gets Brendan to sing along to some Ke$ha on a Tuesday afternoon. In news, Adam Schupak reported that numerous PGA Tour legends are unhappy that they've been cut out of the new equity program coming as part of the PGA Tour Enterprises company. 36 former players will receive money based on a "career points" system that prioritized PGA Tour wins and starts, leaving European stars like Tony Jacklin and Nick Faldo on the outside looking in. They are, predictably, unhappy and voiced their displeasure to Golfweek, leading to a lengthy discussion from Andy and Brendan. Tune in to CBS Sports Network at Noon ET on Wednesday, July 2, for the Team Europe Wheel of Mules on "Eye on Golf with The Shotgun Start."

Send us a textThe boundary between legendary golf courses and their price tags becomes crystal clear when exploring the contrast between Shadow Creek's meticulously crafted experience and Royal Hawaiian's wild jungle offering.Joe and Jeremy take us along for an extraordinary evening under the lights at Shadow Creek, a rare opportunity that transformed an already premium experience into something magical. Their detailed account captures the surreal feeling of playing a course where each putt seems to roll endlessly toward the hole, where caddie reads are uncannily accurate, and where going barefoot on the second nine elevated the experience to spiritual levels. In their words, "It felt like we went on a golf trip," despite being in their home city of Las Vegas—perhaps the highest praise possible for a single round of golf.Meanwhile, Matt shares his contrasting experience at Royal Hawaiian Golf Club on Oahu, where breathtaking jungle scenery and creative shot opportunities were unfortunately paired with disappointing course conditions. The front nine, carved into a dramatic valley surrounded by 200-foot-tall trees, presents unique challenges that require shots to bend around massive jungle obstacles. Yet despite the stunning setting, the patchy greens and inconsistent fairways left much to be desired. "If the conditions were good, it would be an $800 course that would be packed," Matt concludes, highlighting the perpetual tension between beauty and playability.The episode also celebrates Dan's recent tournament successes, explores the crew's fascination with vintage PGA Tour trading cards, and offers candid thoughts on Hawaiian travel challenges. Throughout, the question lingers: what makes a golf experience truly worth the price? Shadow Creek seems to have answered that question definitively for our hosts.Join us every Tuesday at 8:30 PM Pacific for more honest golf talk, course reviews, and the camaraderie that makes this game special. If you're contemplating your next bucket-list golf adventure, this episode offers valuable perspective on what truly matters when selecting your destination.We hope you enjoy this week's episode, and if you do, please consider leaving us a review on either Spotify or iTunes.

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.

Throughout the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, some of golf's most legendary names strolled and dominated the fairways. Superstars like Gene Sarazen, Walter Hagen, Byron Nelson, Ben Hogan, and Sam Snead. These were the stars golf fans came out to see play. They were the golfers who grabbed the headlines. But there were others, less known stars, who also won their share of tournaments. Stars like Henry Picard, Horton Smith, and Tommy Armour. And then there was Paul Runyan. Certainly not an imposing figure standing at 5-foot-7, 130 pounds. But he was also one of the game's most dominant figures, especially during the 1930s. Known as Little Poison for his "deadly" short game, Runyan is one of only six golfers to ever win nine tournaments in one year, and the first to ever win more than eight in one season. In 1933, Runyan won nine times. Overall, he posted 29 wins, 28 during the 1930s. His two biggest wins came in the PGA Championship. In 1934, Runyan, when the PGA was still a match-play event, Runyan captured his first Major by downing Craig Wood on the 38th hole of play, 1-up. But it was his 1938 win at the PGA Championship that stunned the world of golf when he crushed Snead 8 and 7 in the most lopsided final round in the history of the PGA. On this episode of Sports' Forgotten Heroes, I take a look back at the wonderful, Hal of Fame career of one of golf's forgotten heroes, Paul Runyan.Mentioned in this episode:Sports History Network Theme SongThis theme song was produced by Ron "Tyke" Oliver of Music Meets Sportz https://sites.google.com/view/sportsfanztastic?usp=sharing

Not everything's the same, but the fundamentals are." "I think it's just the way I'm wired and it's what I love about the job is just always trying to find ways to get better.

It wasn't without its hiccups. I mean, everybody invested a lot of time and probably some of them to the detriment of their personal life, the sacrifice that was put forth to put this tournament on. Which happens every week on the PGA Tour."

Andy and Brendan! celebrate a Victory Monday thanks to Aldrich Potgieter outlasting Max Greyserman in a five-hole playoff at the Rocket Classic in Detroit.

It's been a dream couple of months for Ryan Fox. In May, the Kiwi golfer won the Myrtle Beach Classic, claiming his first PGA Tour win. From there he made the cut for the PGA Championship, won his second Tour event at the Canadian Open, before making the cut for the US Open. He'll soon be heading to the UK for the Scottish Open and Open Championship, taking a week's break ahead of the tournament. “It's been a crazy couple of months,” Fox told Mike Hosking. “Going from trying to figure out where we're gonna play gold, or where I was going to play golf next year, where we're going to live as a family, to, yeah, being on the PGA Tour for a few more years now, and having a couple of wins and playing my way into the big events.” He says he's still trying to come to terms with it all, but it's what he's always dreamed of doing. “It's pretty cool.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Are you wasting time working on swing tips that don't matter? In this episode, Mike Granato & Shaun Webb expose the 3 most overrated golf swing concepts that are holding back your game. From early extension to bowed wrists and “handle dragging,” we break down what really matters in the golf swing—and what's just noise.Sean and Mike hit the range of bad advice that's everywhere on Instagram, YouTube, and even from your well-meaning 20-handicap buddy. You'll learn why “fixing” early extension in your downswing is a fool's errand, how thrust and tilt get confused, and why most golfers are practicing all wrong.We pull back the curtain on why pros extend right away, why amateur swings fall apart, and the two things you NEED to fix before trying any Instagram swing hack. This is raw, no-BS insight you won't get from swing tip reels.➡️ Whether you're chasing distance, consistency, or just trying to stop topping the ball, this is a must-listen if you're serious about improving your swing.
