In this episode I'm joined by, Bruce Devlin, Tom Purtzer, Bob Estes, & Tom Patri Join Me...
Tom Patri and I discuss the players that continue to stream over to LIV Golf plus his reaction to what we say at the Tour Championship, was Rory's win bigger for him or for the PGA Tour, the surprise crowd reaction to Cam Smith, and a gotcha playing lesson for what not to do as we all chase more clubhead speed.
Tom Purtzer shares his thoughts on LIV Golf. We go back in his playing career and hear what it was like being paired with Jack Nicklaus in the final round of the 1977 Tournament of Champions, and his memories of Tom Weiskopf.
Bob Estes is one of the best players in the history of both the University of Texas and the State of Texas. We talk about his 6 wins during his college days. We also talk about the year he's having out on the Champions Tour, and his thoughts on LIV Golf as well. We also learn what made him one of the top putters on Tour.
Bruce Devlin and I walk through his great career. You'll hear how he got started in the game, winning the 1959 Australian Amateur Championship, his 19 wins on the Australian/New Zealand circuit, playing against Arnold Palmer in the 1964 Masters, being tied with Roberto De Vincenzo going to the back 9 of the 1968 Masters, beating Billy Casper at the 1966 Carling World Open, teaming with David Graham to win the 1970 World Cup matches, being inducted into the Texas Golf Hall of Fame, and the podcast he's doing now with Mike Gonzalez called "Fore The Good of the Game.
