This week we sit down for a highly entertaining interview with Jeff and Todd Bishop, co-founders of Halifax’s own Dormie Workshop. Dormie designs and builds premium leather headcovers along with many other golf and travel products that have gained a ton of attention in the golf world. This spring, they were recognized as Golf Digest’s Editor’s Choice for best leather headcover. Jeff and Todd share their story of how they got started, their background and take us through some exciting announcements for their future.

Definitely give the guys at Dormie a follow at @dormieworkshop and check out their full product line at dormieworkshop.ca.

Before the interview we also run through the week’s headlines, including Brooke Henderson locking up her 10th career LPGA Tour victory at the Hugel-Air Premia LA Open. In other Canadian news, after an incredible year on the Korn Ferry Tour, Taylor Pendrith has officially locked up his Tour card for the 2022 season. We also get into the newly announced Player Impact Program and discuss if we think it’s right to further reward the Tour’s biggest stars.

We are thrilled to welcome back to the show Brigitte Thibault, who will be returning to Augusta, Georgia this week to compete at the Augusta National Women’s Amatuer. Brigitte is now a senior at Fresno State where she competes for the Bulldogs Women’s Golf team. Brigitte has seen great success competing in California, where she currently holds the title as Mountain West Conference individual champion and is also a member of Team Canada’s National Amateur squad. In her interview Brigitte discusses what it’s like competing at a high level, how she prepares not only on the course, but on the mental side, and what she’s expecting heading back to Augusta.

You can keep up with Brigitte on Instagram (@bri.thib) and Twitter (@bri_thib) to track her progress at the ANWA as well as the rest of her collegiate season.

Before talking to Brigitte, we also cover headlines from the WGC Dell Technologies Match Play, Kia Classic, Corales Puntacana Resort & Club Championship, as well as recap the great weekend for Canadian golfers.

We are back this week with yet another interview that highlights a great, Canadian entrepreneur. This time, we sit down with Josh Haywood, founder of Haywood Golf. Founded in 2018, Haywood Golf operates out of Vancouver and is a club manufacturer that offers high quality, affordable irons and wedges. Josh takes us through his story, motivation for starting the company, and walks us through some of Haywood’s offerings.

Lots to get to this week as Brent and John take the reins and recap another exciting week of golf at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Lots of talk about winner Bryson DeChambeau as well as a fantastic tournament from Canadian Corey Conners. They also run down some other notable performances from Jordan Spieth and Lee Westwood, among others.

After the recap, we get to an interview with Mackenzie Knowles, owner of Ada’s Golf Boutique, which just launched this week. The shop is a curated collection of women’s golf apparel that aims to address a major gap in the marketplace for women who typically need to deal with expensive prices and very limited selection at the major retailers.

To learn more about Mack’s project and browse the spring collection, visit goshopada.com. You can also check them out on Facebook or Instagram (@goshopada) for updates.

Finally, turning the calendar to March signifies the arrival of the PGA Tour’s crown jewel, THE PLAYERS (all caps) Championship. This also marks the one year anniversary of the Tour’s initial shutdown and the official arrival of the COVID-19 Pandemic to the world of golf in North America. Brent and John break down the stacked field and give us their picks for who will take home the massive $2.7 million winner’s cheque.

After getting a bit distracted last week by Patrick Reed’s most recent cheating incident, we are back once again to give our rundown of new product launches and gear announcements for 2021. Though this is very top-line, we cover some of the major releases from the big club manufacturers, including TaylorMade, Titleist, Callaway and Cobra Golf. If you’re considering upgrading your bag this year, this is a great place to start!

We also spend the first half of the episode discussing Brook’s win at the Waste Management Phoenix Open, whether or not we can consider Jordan Spieth “back,” as well as some initial reactions to the joint Distance Insights Report from the USGA and R&A.

With further proof that the universe doesn’t care about karma, Patrick Reed has taken home his 9th PGA Tour victory this week at the Farmers Insurance Open. However, the win doesn’t come without controversy. Reed benefitted from a highly-scrutinized move during his 3rd round in which he took relief from an “embedded” lie. This week, the guys break down the incident itself and discuss its implications for the tour and how incidents like this can be avoided in the future.

After a lengthy conversation, we talk about the upcoming Waste Management Phoenix Open and make our picks for the week. With only 5,000 spectators allowed on the grounds each day, the event will look significantly different than it has in the past; most notably on its famed Hole #16 that typically sees a raucous crowd of 20,000 on that hole alone.

If you need to brush off all of the Patrick Reed-induced negativity, check out this video featuring Gary Woodland and Amy Bockerstette from the 2019 WM Open. Yes, it’s unadulterated PGA Tour propaganda and yes, you will probably see it multiple times over the next few days (especially if Gary is in contention). But good luck not smiling anyway.

Happy New Year, everyone! Thanks for coming back to Ready Golf!

We can finally put 2020 behind us and have (some) sense of optimism as we turn the calendar page into the new year. With that, there are a few headlines that we catch up on from the past couple of weeks, including:

• Mike Whan steps down as commissioner of the LPGA Tour

• SCOREGolf jointly purchased by Torstar Corporation and Golf Town

• First reactions to the highly anticipated HBO documentary, Tiger

• New signings and gear roundup

We also spend this week talking about the first leg of the Hawaiian Swing, the Sentry Tournament of Champions, and Harris English’s first victory since 2013. We also discuss some other notables from the week and an unfortunate indiscretion by Justin Thomas.

Finally, we round out the episode with some hot takes and predictions for the 2021 year.
