WELCOME to the second major of the year! The majors have become better and better in this complex golf landscape and even the PGA is no exception. Getting all the best players together and at the events that the players care about the most has become such a treat and this week trusts to continue that trend. Today, we're chatting about our "What ifs" for the PGA Championship. The scenarios that would make this week really hum and provide both golf and off the course intrigue. You can expect: - Who to watch out for this week. - What we may see from the LIV players vs. PGA Tour players. - Some of the off the course antics that would be fun this week.

The Tree Farm. We've given this one plenty of love in comparisons to other courses, but have yet to talk about it purely as its own review. Today that changes.

Regionals, the final right of passage regardless of who you are. Whether we are talking about a team that has 9 wins on the year or a team that barely snuck into the top 75, everyone has to go to one of the 6 regional sites and finish in the top 5 if they want to make a trip to the national championship. Brentley Romine is here with us a one of the top voices and knowledge bases in the college golf world to break down the season that has led us here, each of the 6 regionals, and plenty of color on what to expect. In today's episode, you can expect: - Who is going where and what is the importance of location. - Who will definitely be at the National Championship, who has a chance to make it, and what can we expect from the individual race at each location? - Why is it that this is the most nervy event of the year whether you are the 1 seed or the 14 seed at any regional.

Jackson Van Paris is a junior on the Vanderbilt Men's Golf Team and has been enjoying a ton of success in the last year. Climbing into the top 15 of the amateur ranks haas been a product of a win at the 2023 Sunnehanna Amateur, a top 10 in a PGA Tour event, and a lot of great golf along the way. While this may look like a huge shift, JVP has been getting the better the whole way through, a lot of which he credits to Vanderbilt coach Scott Limbaugh, as well as his roommate, Gordon Sargent. In today's episode, you can expect: - How Jackson has used Gordon as an example rather than a weight by comparison. - The culture of Vanderbilt Men's Golf and how Scott Limbaugh coaches them. - His plans post graduation and what he loves about competitive golf.

Most of us have one or both of the 2 key problems when it comes to practice: finding time to practice, and knowing how to use that time when we do find it. While we unfortunately cannot be of assistance in opening up time in your schedule to hit the range, short game area, or putting green, we can give you a boost when it comes to putting that precious time to its best use. Tune in to find out how! In today's episode, you can expect: - How we structure our limited time to practice. - The difference between fundamental, structured, and creative practice. - How to balance the 3 types of practice based on your skill level and ability to practice the game.

Golf, like anything has a lifecycle to it. You learn the game, you spend a long long time honing the game, and as an extension of that, you hopefully play the game for life. While you wouldn't play the same set of clubs your entire golfing life, you probably won't stick to the same course either. There are certain "beginner friendly" courses that may be particularly good for learning the game. Certain places really help a developing or perhaps advanced golfer hone their game, and certain courses are well cut out to play for a lifetime. In today's episode, you can expect: - Background on what makes for a course in each bucket. - The importance of this "architectural lifecycle" for a golfer. - Our picks in each of these 3 buckets.

Mike Koprowski and Kyle Franz have been working together on a project just outside of Columbia, South Carolina inspired by Pinehurst No. 2 and Old Town Club.

Now also for the second time, we get an update from Mike on all that has transpired on site since late 2023. Learn more about how the Broomsedge team is embracing the UK model here:  https://us18.campaign-archive.com/?u=84a122f92ec0daa39210e64d1&id=d7abaaf851 Hope you all enjoy this conversation.  Thanks for the support as always!  Cheers,  - The Tie Guys Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.thetiepodcast.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/thetiepodcast/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://mobile.twitter.com/thetiepodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ GoodWalk Coffee:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://goodwalkcoffee.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  CODE: thetie for 20% off  BDraddy: bdraddy.com  CODE: thetie25 for 25% off
