On this episode of the Grind, we talk with Mark Baldwin about the struggles during the first round of the Barracuda. We are also joined by the long-time social media director of the Korn Ferry Tour, Kevin Prise.

Mark discusses his round and whether it's more frustrating not to play well or to be playing well and not get anything out of it. And his plan going into tomorrow well off the cut line. We also talk about a couple of important moments in the round.

Kevin, a golf nerd like me, talks about his love for opposite-field events. He also talks about the worst hotel he has ever stayed.

Live from Barracuda: Justin Lower & Hagan Parkman Jul 13, 2022

Show notes

The Live podcast that wasn’t live. We planned to have a live video podcast, but it didn’t work, so we did the next best thing.

Justin Lower is one of my favorite people in golf. He was eating lunch in player dining when Mark asked if he would join us for a podcast. He, of course, did and, as always, had such great answers.

Last week at the Barbasol Championship, he was four off the cut line with just five holes to go. All he did was birdie four of the last five to make the cut on the number. He followed that up with a pair of 66s and the best finish of his PGA Tour career. He discussed with us what that finish could mean to his career. He also dropped some huge personal news.

We were also joined by Army veteran Hagan Parkman, who works on the social media team on the Korn Ferry Tour. She tells about her unusual path to loving the game of golf.

Please give it a listen!

Live from Barracuda: Chris Hoff Jul 11, 2022

Show notes

We have all sat down and watched a Tour event. Most of us never think for a second about the logistics and planning that go into it. The entire year was spent planning for four days. On this week's episode of "The Grind," we talk with Chris Hoff, the Tournament Director of the Barracuda Championship.

Hoff covered many topics, including, what defines a successful event, how a course is chosen, and what a perfect Sunday looks like. We also discussed how the Barracuda markets itself with the challenges of being an opposite-field event.

It all looks so simple on TV, but it's a culmination of a year of work—the inside info on the life of a tournament director.
