I had an absolute blast at the LPGA’s 2024 Ford Championship at Seville Golf and Country!
There, I had the opportunity to sit down with three amazing women: players Bailey Tardy and Lauren Coughlin share two inspiring stories of resilience, while Tournament Director Emily Podzlinski gives us the lowdown on the ins-and-outs of running a golf championship.
Listen in as Bailey and Lauren reflect on their comebacks from the edge of quitting to securing their coveted LPGA tour cards. Chock-full of raw anecdotes around mini-tour hardships and last-ditch victories, their stories mirror the resilience and passion that define success in the world of professional golf.
Then there’s Emily Podzlinski, who unveils the meticulous juggling act that goes on behind the curtain of an LPGA tournament. We dive into the mental and physical rigors of the sport, including the profound impact a recent win can have on a player's routine and mindset. We also talk tournament preparation, nurturing a productive dynamic with your caddy, course management, spectator flow, and much more.
