A lot of LPGA talk this week on the podcast. We discuss the Q-Series rules controversy and welcome in Stanford University grad Lauren Kim to talk about her successful play at the Q-Series.

She also outlines the joys of success in NCAA Golf, personal motivation from Tiger Woods, finding inspiration to keep going as a professional golfer, and how pros adapt to courses from week to week.

In the MailBag we share our take on why you might not want to have a 64-degree wedge in your bag, our favourite episodes of the season, destinations to play golf in Ontario, and we each build a used golf bag for $800.

Lots to talk about this week including the big 82nd PGA TOUR win by Tiger Woods at the ZOZO Championship, the new Bermuda Championship, and the continued chase to be a Presidents Cup pick by Canadians Corey Conners and Adam Hadwin.

Our feature interview with Andrew Jensen helps us explore the challenges of dealing with mental health issues while playing professional golf, and the in and outs of being a Golf YouTube Content Creator. It's a interesting and multi-faceted discussion.

The Birdie or Bogey segment sees us analyze the changing broadcast team at CBS Sports, the topic of wearing earbuds during practice, Annika Sorenstam breaking more barriers, and whether we think hoodies have a place in golf course fashion.

In the Mail Bag we talk about how to keep your game sharp through the winter, the best players we have ever teed it up with, and what professional golfers we would like to caddy for.
