No Soldier Left Behind // Billy Horschel Nov 28, 2023

Show notes

Our inaugural guest, Billy Horschel, makes a triumphant return in his annual conversation with the SDTM crew!
In this week's episode, we learn a lot about the Tomorrow Golf League, and the future of the league after they were forced to delay the launch due to an act of God.
As one of the PGA Tour's more outspoken players, Billy is never too shy to tell you just what he thinks or how he feels, and we love his honesty. While 2023 wasn't the best season he's had on TOUR, he does have a lot of irons in the fire off the course.
Billy and his wife, Britney, have a huge heart for charity, and just recently formed the The Horschel Family Foundation, which passionately invests in communities by partnering with organizations that inspire hope, provide healing, promote health and honor our soldiers.
We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed making it!
