Why Is Change So Hard in Golf?
"And there's that slice/hook/chunk again!" We've all been there: working at the range to make a swing change, and then we see the old pattern emerge. Why is it so hard to make a change stick? In this episode, Mark, Lou, and Greg bring three very different perspectives (a coach, an avid am, and a professional) to this question. There may not be shortcuts, but there are ways to engage with a change that can accelerate your progress.

Is Team Europe Even Team Europe Anymore?
It's Ryder Cup week! In previous years, the Ryder Cup represented not just a clash of continents, but a clash of Tours: the PGA Tour and (what is now) the DP World Tour.

Is it just nostalgia to want a strong European Tour? Would Greg have left Australia if he could have played there for the same purses? Is the rivalry weaker with a Tour element?
