Soly and Randy review the week highlighted by quotes from Rory on captaining the European Ryder Cup team and what he views as successfully growing the game. We also discuss the amateur reinstatement debate and the reported shakeups at PGA Tour HQ before breaking down Tommy’s win in India on the DP World Tour and Sei Young Kim’s win at the BMW Ladies Championship.
In part two (52:00), Randy is joined by Cody and Jordan for a look at the career and legacy of Se Ri Pak. We begin with the origins of golf in her native South Korea and her upbringing and introduction to the game. From there, we learn about the journey to the United States and the LPGA Tour, the pressures she felt from sponsors to compete against the best women in golf, and her major wins - highlighted by the 1998 US Women’s Open. We close with a look at Se Ri’s legacy in the game, particularly the generation of Asian women who have followed her road to success in major championships and the LPGA Tour.

1082: The Science of Putting with Dr. Sasho MacKenzie
Dr. Sasho Mackenzie returns to the pod for an eye opening discussion around all things putting with Soly, Neil and Cody. Sasho has developed a Stack Putting app as a companion to his speed training work and the research into rolling better putts led to a ton of questions from us around what differentiates good putters and bad putters, how different putter types and grips affect success, green reading mistakes, putting while looking at the hole instead of the ball, and a ton more.

1080: On The Ground At The Ryder Cup With Neil
Two weeks ago, we sent Neil to Bethpage to record his experience at the 2025 Ryder Cup. From the transportation headaches and practice rounds to the European fan celebrations after the final match concluded on Sunday evening, we did our best to paint an accurate and unfiltered picture of what it was like to have a front row seat to one of the most memorable events in golf.
