157. Playing with My Mother at the Cali Crush Invitational with Alix Oct 24, 2024

Show notes

When my mom accepted the invitation to join us for the 2024 California Crush Invitational, I knew it would be an unforgettable experience. My sister Alix joins me today to reflect on Mom’s first-ever golf tournament experience and the lessons women golfers can take to heart through her example!

From Napa to Tampa, Mom’s unique challenges as a first-timer speak to the women out there who are thinking about taking the leap into their first tournament, but for one reason or another, they are holding back–whether due to a higher handicap index or otherwise.

With Mom being a casual golfer by nature, Alix and I never felt prouder witnessing her achieve her first birdie! She adapted beautifully to the formalities of an 18-hole match, thanks in no small part to the supportive environment we were immersed in throughout those two amazing days!

Of course, it wouldn’t be a conversation with Alix without a diversion into the latest golf fashion trends (can you say “wide-leg pants”?). After a quick discussion on said trends, Alix and I wrap things up by talking about the power of connecting with like-minded individuals who share our passion for women empowering women out on the course!

156. Inside the Golf Media World with Golf Channel's Blair O'Neal Oct 17, 2024

Show notes

I’m sitting down with the amazing Blair O’Neal. A TV personality, golfer, and model, Blair shares how she’s able to seamlessly balance a thriving career, motherhood, and her passion for golf!

Blair talks to us about raising two young boys while managing the demanding travel schedule that comes with a dual career in media and sports. She shares stories from her formative years at Arizona State University, her professional experiences on the LPGA Symetra Tour (then known as the LPGA Futures Tour), and her current work with Golf Channel and Golf Pass.

We’re also diving into the exclusive world of celebrity golf tournaments, and draw from our experiences regarding sharing personal life on social media. We weigh the balance between transparency and privacy as “influencers”, and how our choices as content creators affect audience engagement.

We also talk about the thrill of participating in events like the Hilton Grand VacationsTournament of Champions in Orlando, where celebrities and LPGA Tour players alike get to bond within a unique and pressure-free setting. Blair then shares her experiences playing alongside top athletes like Nelly Korda and Brooke Henderson.

Finally, Blair touches on her goals in the golf media industry, as well as practical tips on maintaining a healthy lifestyle as a high performer.

154. Things You Might Not Know About Running a Golf Club with Daryl and Derek Crawford Oct 08, 2024

Show notes

I’m sitting down with Daryl and Derek Crawford to learn just what it takes to run a golf club, drawing from their over four decades of experience! Known in the golf world as D&D, both identical twins have dedicated their lives to the sport for 40 years and counting! Today, Daryl works as the General Manager of Papago Golf Course in Phoenix, while Daryl serves as general manager at Coldwater Golf Club in the West Valley. In 2020, the brothers were presented with the Updegraff Award, which is given annually to a person who, “By his or her actions and accomplishments exemplify the Spirit of the Game.” Listen in as Daryl and Derek recall their shared love of golf from an early age–a journey that took them from forming a high school golf team to serving as tour representatives for PING and other programs at top courses worldwide. Asked what it takes to operate a successful golf course, the brothers tackle everything from day and membership rates to ball management, to the maintenance of practice areas, to maximizing tee times and revenue streams. To the Crawford brothers, impeccable service and a quality product can set a golf course apart, even in a competitive market. Finally, we’re talking about the evolving retail landscape within the industry, and how brands are racing to meet the needs of underrepresented groups in the world of amateur and professional golf!

152. Revisiting Tournament Play 15 Years Later with Justin Klemballa Sep 26, 2024

Show notes

I’m back with golf coach Justin Klambala, who's making his return to competitive golf after a hiatus since 2009. With his signature energy and passion for the sport that we’ve all come to know and love, he’s here to tell us all about his comeback and the lessons he’s learned along the way!

Justin kicks things off talking about the differences between outcome goals and process goals, and why our long-term success in any endeavor–golf or otherwise–depends on making more of the latter.
Drawing from his personal experience, Justin illustrates why keeping your focus on the present moment during tournament play is one of the best things you can do, and why obsessively checking your score ultimately makes little difference on your ability to win!
“All I can do is try to hit great shots,” Justin says. “If I do that, I’m stacking the odds in my favor and do my best. If my best beats everybody else that day, I win. If it doesn’t, it doesn’t!”
Finally, Justin shares why being your own cheerleader is a game-changer for building confidence, the self-talk secret that separates great golfers from average golfers, and his career goals moving forward.
