Joel Beall, a senior writer for Golf Digest and author of "Playing Dirty: Rediscovering Golf’s Soul in Scotland in an Age of Sportswashing," offers insights on golf’s civil war, the value of accessibility, and the everyday joys the game brings to individuals and communities alike. This week’s episode was a delightful chat for co-hosts Matt and The Professor. They explore the multifaceted and often hypocritical golf world with Joel, sharing their personal passions, as well as the cultural differences between American and Scottish golf, and, of course, offer some timely insights for the upcoming Ryder Cup. They examine the importance of community in golf, the impact of leadership decisions in the professional game, and the sport's future amid all these changing dynamics.
