Ep. 11 - Scott Macleod (Flagstick.com), Goodbye WGC, coaching in 2023, Matt's swing gets roasted
"He has a lot of different things going on." - Scott Macleod, on Matt's golf swing
Matt and Troy are taking a break this week as they venture into a darkness retreat in the New Mexico desert. So, Stefan invites former TeeTalk podcast co-host Scott Macleod from Flagstick.com to join him in this episode. Together, they chat about the last WGC event, debate whether the PGA Championship should go back to match play, discuss coaching golf in the social media age, and reveal their early top picks for The Masters. Lastly, Scott offers an in-depth analysis of Matt's golf swing, which will surely leave him self-conscious heading into the season.

"I believe Tom Hoge won the US Open last year or the year before." - Matt Costanzo
No interview this week, as there was simply too much to talk about from the Players. Matt, Troy, and Stefan get together to break down the tournament, judge who dresses the worst on the PGA Tour, did Tom Hoge win a major, how much they'd pay to play Sawgrass, and debate if Matt is a cancer in the Golf Friends locker room. Thank you for being a friend.
