The PGA Championship tees off today at Oak Hill East in Rochester!


And if you were watching this event last year, then you got to see today’s guest, Justin Thomas, make an absolutely epic comeback. He came from seven strokes back to win in a playoff and notch his second win at a Major.


He’s an extraordinary player who knows the importance of managing his own mindset out on the course. 


That’s true for great golfers … and it’s just as true for great leaders.

  • How to manage your nerves in pressure-packed situations
  • Why a results-oriented approach to goal-setting can actually help you achieve more
  • The powerful advice Justin got from Tom Brady that helped him snap out of a funk
