What is up? I'm Brian Scott Rippey. Thanks for tuning into another edition of the Rippey Rights podcast.

Got a little bit of a different show for you today. We have on Steve Wilmot. Who is Steve

Wilmot? Steve is the tournament director for the RBC Heritage, the PGA Tour event at Harbortown

the week after the Masters. One of the most signature and longstanding events on the PGA

tour. Steve is not an Ole Miss alum, but Steve has a daughter who is currently a student

at Ole Miss, had never been to Oxford before, before his child decided to go there and has just

fallen in love with Oxford and Ole Miss and is very clearly involved because he's another one of

the incredible guests that Denson Hollis has sent me as part of the tremendous partnership that I'm eternally

grateful for with him and Javon Patterson on sending me just incredible people with connections

and who love Ole Miss and have interesting stories, whether it be athletes or just interesting

stories in life. And so I talked to Steve about what it means to be a tournament director

on the PGA tour.

What makes that a 365 day a year job?

The access he's gotten to the inner workings of the PGA tour in a time of definite uncertainty.

Live golf.

He sat on the policy board of the PGA tour for a brief minute.

Just a really fascinating interview,

particularly if you enjoy professional golf. Steve is one of the nicest people I've ever had the

pleasure of, I guess, kind of meeting. He was, we met via Zoom, but could not have been more

gracious with this time, and I really enjoyed this conversation. I think you will too.
