Summary

John Feinstein was considered enemy number one to the Tiger Woods camp in the early days of Tiger's career, and he joins the show to describe his 4-hour dinner with Tiger and how it came to be via an unexpected encounter on the practice green at Augusta. John recently published a new novel called The Prodigy, which details the struggles of a teenage golfer deciding whether or not to turn pro as he contends at the Masters. Outside of the interview, we breakdown People's Golfer 2.0 Keegan Bradley's breakthrough win at the BMW, Justin Rose rising to no. 1 in the world, Tiger's blistering 62 complete thanks to #ScottySZN, Tony Finau rounding out the greatest Ryder Cup squad ever assembled, and if it's acceptable to root against American guys you don't like in Paris. Action packed. Come play with us!
