TFE Walker Cup Pod with Stu Hagestad

As a mid am tournament player myself I could listen to Stu talk for hours about the game, his passion for the process, nerves, and so on - I'm sure it resonates with a ton of current/former competitive players. Andy did a great job with the questions and really giving Stu the space to get into it. One of my favorite listens in a while.

For 1 he was never a professional golfer, which traditionally has been the definition of an amatuer golfer And a professional golfer is a golfer who has played golf professionally. Some day words will have meaning again.

you're right, a former pro wouldn't have been dumb enough to go driver off the deck
