The Loop

This is The Loop, a refreshing mix of everything you love to talk about around golf, with the only rule that you don’t take yourself or the game too seriously. Each week hosts Christopher Powers, Alex Myers, and Steve Hennessey, along with special guests from across the sports and entertainment worlds, will touch on what’s going in the game, who they’re putting money on, and whatever else comes up along the way.

Charles Barkley’s swing coach on fixing his game Nov 15, 2022

Show notes

Former tour winner turned teaching pro Stan Utley joins this week’s episode of the podcast and reveals how he was able to pull off the impossible - fixing Charles Barkley’s golf swing. Utley, once known as a short game and putting guru, is now best known for repairing the Round Mound of Rebound’s hitch, which has gained him all sorts of cred in the teaching pro streets. He’s also worked with the likes of Jay Haas, Rocco Mediate, and Sergio Garcia, who Utley believes is a far better putter than he’s been given credit for in his career. Alex and Steve also recap a huge hit on Tony Finau at the Houston Open, and we make our RSM and NFL picks.
