The Watering Hole

This week in Episode 135, we are joined by a very special guest; Rachel Drummond.

Rachel joins us from Dubai ahead of the 2026 LIV Golf season.

We chat her journey through golf, from the ups and downs of the game, playing professionally, caddying to coaching and in her current role on the LIV Golf broadcast team.

She shares plenty of stories from the range and gives us an insight into the day to day life on LIV Golf. We get Rachel's take on the current state of the game and some predictions for the future. Plus pies, AFL footballers and many many more hilarious moments.

Rachel had us in stitches throughout this episode and we can't wait to catch up with her in Adelaide for our chocolate and golf lessons!

A massive thank you to Rachel for joining the show, we know you will enjoy this as much as we did!!
