My guest on this episode is Ross Steelman from Georgia Tech University. Ross is heading into the postseason with the Yellow Jackets looking to capture an ACC championship this weekend at the Country Club of North Carolina. Steelman is a Columbia, MO native and arrived at Georgia Tech after a successful run at Mizzou. We spoke shortly after the Linger Longer Invitational last month and we discussed his start in the game, how he approaches staying in the moment during tournaments.....and what waits for him after college. This is a highly entertaining episode. Not gonna lie, we had a bunch of fun and considering the fact that I am a Kansas guy and he is a Missouri guy......this really could have gone sideways fast.

Our eighth episode in the series takes us down The Road to Hoylake as we catch up with the two young men that squared off in the U.S. Amateur final at Pinehurst. Andy Ogletree was victorious over John Augenstein in the end, but both have made it to Hoylake as members of the U.S. Walker Cup team. We were fortunate enough to grab them both for a quick chat at the Newark airport before they hopped a flight to the UK. Thanks to the USGA for helping us get some time with John and Andy!
