The Edge

With Andy coaching in the NCAA Regionals, it gave us a chance to go back into our archives. We taped an interview with a woman we’ve known for a long time.

Andia Winslow played golf at Yale…then played professionally, including on the LPGA Tour. Since then, she has been a golf teacher, personal trainer…activist…and now, an actor.

She was named VoiceOver artist of the year in 2021. She has an Emmy, and her latest project is narrating the Brittney Griner book, Coming Home.

Scott flies solo this week, talking about why Nelly Korda and Scottie Scheffler continue their domination of the game.

Then, Clay Myers joins The Edge. He is currently the head golf professional at The Park at West Palm. Clay made a name in golf as a competitor on The Big Break. So when Barack Obama visited The Park last week, he said hello to "Big Break Clay".

We will hear more from Clay about:

• Why he started playing as a kid in Memphis
• His favorite part of playing golf
• Why professional touring golf didn't fit with why he loves the game
• What Barack Obama watched during the pandemic

Plus, can Clay beat the standard that Andy set in the Bars Exam?

Summary

Scott & Andy analyze the tactics of the contenders down the stretch on Masters Sunday, and the importance of making smart decisions on the challenging Augusta National course. The conversation also touches on the role of luck in golf and the mental aspect of the game.

Charlie Rymer (Westwood One) then joins to discuss Scottie Scheffler's dominant win at the Masters and the qualities of a killer golfer. They also talk about the importance of matching your swing with your personality. The conversation then shifts to the use of technology in golf, with Charlie expressing his skepticism about launch monitors and the importance of learning to watch the ball fly. Charlie also emphasizes the need to decouple the notion that great golf has to be extremely difficult and highlights the various ways people can enjoy and contribute to the game of golf.

The hosts conclude this week's Bars Exam...an ode to the joy of fancy butter.

Sound Bites

"Golf's a compromise between what your ego wants you to do, what experience tells you to do, and what your nerves allow you to do."

"As he was walking up to eight green, he said, this is my tournament. Boys, y'all just stand aside."

"You gotta be authentic to your personality and everything's gotta line up or your weaknesses will really come through."

"The best ball flight monitor is the ball."

Our journey continues with special guest Notah Begay III.

To start, we dive into the announcement from Stanford star Rachel Heck that she will forego a professional career. What goes into a decision like that? Andy and Scott discuss.

(09:18) Then, we spend some time with 4-time PGA TOUR winner Notah Begay III. He tells you why the modern game is too reliant on data, why he doesn't like the swing that won him 4 titles, and the work that winners need to do for victory. And Tiger Woods gets mentioned in a unique golf trivia question. This is a very detailed golf conversation. Stay with it, because the wisdom oozes from this chat.

(33:30) Bars Exam: We dive into the West Coast to give Andy his weekly hip-hop test.
