Friends of Tiger, Episode 17: The Groupageddon

It’s night three of the U.S. Open extravaganza, and we’re back with the core crew of Jon McCarthy, Teddy Greenstein, Stephanie Wei, Michael Witmer, and ME. We’re one day away from finally getting some golf, and we’re talking course setup, USGA devilry, and the players we love. We also do a lightning round fantasy draft, and things get HEATED. And as always, we take unnecessary shots at Stephanie. The week rolls on, and we continue to gain in strength. The Groupageddon is upon us!

Friends of Tiger, Episode 15: The Groupening

We’re setting a new world record with podcast guests today at a whopping FIVE. Teddy Greenstein (Chicago Tribune), Ryan Ballengee (GolfNewsNet), Jon McCarthy (Toronto Sun), Stephanie Wei (WeiUnderPar), and I are jamming with the first of a bunch of U.S. Open podcasts from Chambers Bay this week. All I can say is that it gets chaotic, and fast. Possibly too chaotic. Like the U.S. Open, it’s nice to have once in a while, but you wouldn’t want it every week. In the midst of the insanity, we do discuss the U.S. Open, and there are some actual intelligent takes. Enjoy, my friends!

Friends of Tiger Episode 14: Sam Weinman of Golf Digest

It’s the Sam Weinman episode! Sam just wrote an excellent piece on Golf Digest about his struggles as a mediocre golfer, and his long obsession with swing thoughts. It makes for the perfect topic, because I, too, have fallen into the golf rabbit hole, and this hour is more than a little like therapy. We also look ahead to the Memorial and U.S. Open as summer begins and major season heats up. Check it out!
