Matt Blois is a golf performance coach, club fitter, and YouTuber, who runs Golf Liberty in Toronto, Canada. After years of struggling with his mental health and seeking intensive treatment, Matt and his therapist have now launched the Preserve Foundation, a comprehensive mental health clinic offering funding to individuals in need of treatment. Matt shares how his relationship with golf changed through the height of his panic attacks — something that led him to keep a bottle of valium in his golf bag. Now, Matt is committed to providing support not only to golfers, but to everyone who needs it. 

In this session: golf in COVID, falling through the cracks, we love bad golf teams.

You know him as Jamie Tartt, you love him as Phil Dunster. Phil is an actor from Northampton, England, who joins the Group Golf Therapy couch from the city of Bristol, where his drama school alma mater is located. Phil is a new golfer, and uses sport as a means of healthy escape and connecting more deeply with friends. The Shrinks are *jazzed* to follow Phil’s golf journey, and were touched by his willingness to talk about the mental health of it all — particularly, how to find self-worth and identity when you don’t have work to fall back on.

When Ryan Barath was 13, he saw an interview where Phil Mickelson described a modulation he made to his 60-degree wedge, to make it better fit the golf course he was competing at that week. Ryan’s jaw hit the floor: “you can tinker with golf clubs?!” That immediately inspired a career path as a golf club fitter, builder, and writer focused on the many intricacies of golf equipment. Golf wasn’t always a constant for Ryan, though — one afternoon at his local muni, he decided to walk off the course. Now that he’s back, he’s engaging with the game on a deeper, more spiritual and emotionally vulnerable level.

In this session: being buried with a 5 iron, the trip to St Andrews.

Pat Corcoran shone bright early. As the manager of Chance the Rapper, Pat saw meteoric success in defining the cultural relevance of independent music. Now, Pat reflects on his twenties through the lens of his Higher Self — how his anxiety limited his ability to process his emotions. He has since shifted focus to managing an independent wine label, No Fine Print, and taking to the golf course to find moments of peace. 

In this session: reactions, re-parenting the window-front dog, emotional-support nicotine.

Bradford, Connor, and Drew met Alex Fourie at the 2023 US Adaptive Open at Pinehurst, and were instantly struck by his attitude, his composure, his outlook. At the age of seven, Alex was adopted from Ukraine and relocated to the US. On day 1 in America, he fished — on day 2, he golfed. Golf became a salve, always there with the sun poking through the trees. Now, along with competing in tournaments around the world, Alex and his foundation, Single Hand Golf, are giving golf to children with adaptive needs and raising funds for orphans in Ukraine. 

Visit singlehandgolf.com to join Alex and his team’s mission of getting golf in the lives of children with adaptive needs.

In this session: eating cardinal, EA Sports Tiger Woods, Nike Sasquatch.
