Today, we interviewed the 2020 Phil Mickelson award winner, an All-American, and the winner of the 2021 Cougar Invitational.

Korn Ferry Tour Member, Ben Griffin has had a wild ride throughout his professional career. Early on in his career, the former Tar Heel bounced between the Mackenzie and Korn Ferry tours. After stints on these tours, he changed his career path becoming a loan officer in May of 2021. In this episode, he dives deep into his journey of quitting professional golf to become a loan officer then picking golf back up and qualifying for the Korn Ferry Tour (only 5 months removed) . A great story that needs to be heard. We thank him very much for his time. 

AJ Ott, the 2019 Southern Am Champion and former Colorado State Men's Golfer just turned pro after his stellar performance throughout his college career. We unpack his life as a professional golfer and dive into the nit and gritty parts of what it means to him to be a man who plays for a greater purpose than himself. Went through all 5 years he spent at CSU and got to hear from the perspective of the hometown kid what it meant to him to play there. Such a great listen.
