My guest on this episode is Jacob Modleski, who is finishing up an impressive freshman season at Notre Dame.  He picked up a win this spring at the Johnnie-O Collegiate at Sea Island, but his big breakout was in January at the Jones Cup Invitational.  Winning that tournament has opened all kinds of doors for Jacob, and I'm sure that I will be seeing quite a bit of him this summer at some of the biggest tournaments in amateur golf.

Carter Pitcairn - The Kid who Caddied The Masters

My guest on this episode is Neal Shipley, the Low Amateur at the 2024 Masters.  

This episode is all about the Masters, his experience playing with Tiger, the infamous side glance in Butler Cabin, and was there a note from Tiger?  There wasn't....but if there was....what would it have said?  Hmmm....
