This week on Beyond The Fairway, Will and Doug pull up fresh from their first trip to the Masters—and trust us, the experience did not disappoint. From Amen Corner to the concessions to those infamous no-phone rules, we’re giving you the real behind Augusta’s mystique. 👀

Then we dive into our exclusive look at the Jordan Brand Golf collection—and yes, it’s clean. We break down the new gear, the sneaker crossover moment, and what Jordan’s golf legacy could mean for the culture.

We also chop it up about our golf bucket list courses (let us know yours in the comments!) and debate the next big storyline heading into the 2025 PGA Championship after JT’s comeback win following Rory’s dub. Is golf about to catch fire this season?
