Episode 85 – Anthony Kim’s INSANE Comeback + Presidents Who Loved Golf


Listen Later

This week, we start with one of the wildest comeback stories in modern sports. Anthony Kim — after disappearing for a decade, battling addiction, injury, and mental health — shoots 63 in Australia and beats Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau. For a guy who didn’t even own clubs for 10 years, it was electric. Not just a golf story — a life story.

We also break down:

  • Scottie Scheffler’s absurd consistency and why he’s not flashy… just relentless.
    • Pebble Beach looking incredible — and the bigger question of whether modern equipment is making historic courses obsolete.
      • LIV drawing 115,000 fans in Australia and what that means for the future of pro golf.
        • And whether the PGA Championship is quietly losing relevance.
        • Then we pivot to presidential golf history.

          From Woodrow Wilson playing 1,000 rounds, to Eisenhower practically living at Augusta National… to JFK’s talent, LBJ using golf to pass legislation, Nixon quitting for optics, Clinton rebuilding the White House putting green, Obama’s smack talk, and Trump’s serious game. Golf has always been a great tool fr connecting with others.

          If you love the game beyond just the leaderboard, this one’s for you.
