‘I don’t think she knew’: Akshay Bhatia talks his big win and his Instagram girlfriend caddie


Listen Later

Akshay Bhatia, the teen phenom whose win with his girlfriend, Presleigh, caddieing for him became one of the biggest stories in golf this year, joins the ‘Be Right’ podcast (on his 20th birthday!) to reflect on his KFT win. Bhatia has some great stories on flying private with Phil Mickelson and practice rounds with Bryson DeChambeau, and of course, what it’s been like a few weeks after the biggest win of his career.

Listen to our conversation with Bhatia (8:35). We also give our best bets for Pebble Beach after a heartbreaking loss for the ‘Be Right’ boys with Will Zalatoris crushing all three of our hearts. But we’ll try to duplicate the success of our GolfDigest.com experts picks column, where Pat Mayo correctly picked Luke List (and he also had Zalatoris … what a week)!

Check our full analysis at GolfDigest.com, which is the best place to find picks from our leading collection of golf handicappers—including an anonymous caddie reporting live from Pebble Beach; Mayo, Brandon Gdula and Lee Alldrick and Rick Gehman, whose DFS article is also live at GolfDigest.com.
