In this episode of Locally on the Links, host Rich Roth welcomes back former PGA Tour professional and current Senior PGA Tour pro Dick Mast. As the calendar turns to March, the duo dives into the biggest storylines in professional golf and offers essential advice for local players heading back to the course this spring
Tiger’s Masters Outlook: Dick discusses Tiger Woods’ potential return at Augusta. While walking the undulating terrain remains the biggest challenge for Tiger's leg, Mast suggests a Senior Tour (PGA Tour Champions) event would be the perfect competitive "warm-up" for the legend.
The Dominance of Scottie Scheffler: The guys compare Scheffler’s current run of consistency to Tiger’s prime. Mast highlights Scheffler’s mental toughness and "winner" DNA as the reason he remains the man to beat at the upcoming Masters.
Tour Transitions: A look at players like Brooks Koepka and Phil Mickelson, and the shifting landscape between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf.
As winter transitions into spring, Dick Mast provides a roadmap for shaking off the rust:
Short Game First: Start your season by hitting 30-yard wedge shots. This builds rhythm, timing, and hand coordination that eventually translates to your driver.
The "Bounce" Factor: Learn why course conditions matter for your equipment. Mast explains why you need more bounce on your wedges for soft, wet spring turf and less bounce for firm summer conditions.
Stretching & Basics: Before swinging for the fences, Mast recommends a "tune-up" with a teaching pro to review the fundamentals: grip, stance, and alignment.
