The Tie Podcast

The shots, the commentary, the quality of the golf, the golf courses, there's a lot to get used to with LIV that is very different than what we've been seeing in golf coverage for quite some time so we are here today to get into our thoughts on what this product has been so far.

Of course, we start with the DERT, and then we roll right into the LIV action.

The Tie Guys are headed to the President's Cup in Charlotte this week so if you are headed there as well, get in touch with us at the links below so we can connect!

Cheers,

Matt Ginella has covered golf for 25 years. For someone who collects once in a lifetime golf experiences more often than you get your oil changed, the stories to show the world are endless. But the content- though it lived in his mind-  was scraped into short segments that couldn't possibly tell the full story.

It was after nearly 5 years of frustration that he began working towards owning the content he and his talented team worked so hard on producing. The result was something called The Fire Pit Collective.

During the episode we discuss the full story of how it came to be. Including the departure from Golf Channel, a move out to California, and assembling a lethal team of creatives with the goal of providing them freedom to... create.

We also discuss how golf has proven that it can be a community asset. Although few and far between, it's an important point to highlight as we move towards scaling these concepts as far as they will go.

As always, we appreciate you choosing to spend your time here with us. This time, to discover Matt's tie to the game.

Cheers,

Today we tackle a topic that any and all golf fans are going to have an opinion on and passion for... the MOST electric golfers to watch. Those guys that really get the juices flowing and make us super fired up to watch, regardless of the stage.

This conversation is partially sparked by the current state of the game where there is an existential question of how do we make gold more enjoyable to consume and who are the guys that ultimately are going to make us most excited to continue to tune into to watch this game we all love, regardless of where that may be!

As always, we so appreciate your support for The Tie and hope you all are enjoying the pod.

Cheers,

Well, that got a little out of hand... 

TC is back to talk about how many majors do players really have? Is a Masters truly only worth 1 major? What about an Open Championship at the Old Course? A bland PGA Championship? Surely these can't all be worth the same value.

Check out this rather lengthy chat to find out how many majors certain players truly own and feel free to reach out with your opinions on the matter!

College golf season  is upon us and we're here to get your engines firing!

5 teams and 5 players for each of us who we think could be match play contenders on the team side or all americans on the individual side. There are so many great players and teams out there that I would be remiss to not mention that these are just 10 teams and players that we are looking at to have great seasons. So much talent out there.

we start with the DERT and then at the end of the episode we hit a littleee bit of LIV chat, because, you know, we have to.

Much love everybody! Appreciate you all listening as always!

Cheers,

Today we are joined by 2 great guests to break down the action from Ridgewood. What an unbelievable US Amateur that was! Hats off to Sam Bennett for the win and some incredible play from many others as well. One of the guys who made a great run at it this week is our guest for part 2 of today's episode, Derek Hitchner. Derek hails from Minnesota and is about to start his 5th year at Pepperdine. Derek took it all the way to the semis of the US Am this week which was super fun to watch and will open a lot of doors for him down the road. 

Before Derek, we are joined by Steve Burkowski from Golf Channel to glean a bit of knowledge from him on what its like to cover the US Amateur and why he loves amateur and collegiate golf so much. Steve's passion is infectious and really proves to us why we do what we do.

Thank you all so much for your support of the summer amateur series. We want to especially thank our friends at BDraddy for their support of the series and we look forward to more good stuff between The Tie and BDraddy in the coming weeks and months. 

Full speed ahead for the rest of the year here at The Tie! Hang with us for a lot to come!

Cheers,

Trever Dormer has traveled all over the world to build golf courses. Many days, home has been St. Lucia, or Thailand,  or Nova Scotia. But even if every location was as great as these, Kimberly, BC is best because it's really home.

Purcell Golf lies in the Kootenays right by the St. Mary's river. When plans for the PIE (Purcell International Education) began in 2020, a school campus was to be built on a portion of the existing 18-hole golf course.

After negotiations, Kimberly Golf Club- now Purcell Golf-was invested in and is here to stay.  The club needed  someone to turn the community asset into a centerpiece for the town itself. It was obvious the man for the job was Trevor  Dormer.

Enjoy the conversation between me and a Father/Husband/Shaper/Architect building golf in his hometown, for his hometown. It's a good one.

The US Amateur will be split into two parts for our final piece of The Tie Summer Amateur series and in this first rendition we have Brentley Romine join us to provide color from on the ground of what he is seeing out at Ridgewood this week.

The Quarterfinals is where this thing starts to get real. The finish line is in sight and the pressure is cranked up that much more. We've got a fun group of golfers still in the game so it will be exciting to see who is able to outlast the last three rounds of match play.

Join us next week for our final episode of the summer amateur series as we will have on a player who took it deep in match play as well as another member of the media!

Cheers,
