    2025/07/10
    Welcome to this week’s Golfing Mind. In this special episode, “THE OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP PREVIEW 2025,” we’re turning our focus to the upcoming Open Championship at Royal Portrush, set for July 17–20. Whether you’re a casual fan or a serious bettor, we’ve got you covered with an expert breakdown of course conditions, player form, and our keenly awaited picks. We’ll begin by mapping out Portrush’s signature challenges—the heaving dunes, strategic bunkers, and seaside wind patterns that demand precision off the tee and creativity around the greens. Next, we’ll analyze this year’s top contenders—our updated top‑10 list including Scheffler, McIlroy, Rahm, defending champ Schauffele, and surprise sleepers like Hovland—with fresh angle predictions based on recent stats and Open history. Joined from Salisbury, NC, by Matt Barr and from Atlanta, Georgia with Bob Ross, we delve deep and share our thoughts and observations. So grab your earbuds, settle in, and let’s tune our mental “mindware” to the rhythm of Royal Portrush—because championship week is here, and the Golfing Mind is primed to unlock it all. https://www.siegergolf.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

    197. WHY EXACTLY DO YOU PLAY GOLF ANYWAY?
    2025/07/03
    https://www.siegergolf.com/ Welcome to this week’s episode of The Golfing Mind, titled “Why Exactly Do You Play Golf Anyway?” Today, we’re diving deep into the heart and soul of what drives us to pick up those clubs time and time again. Is it pure enjoyment—the simple thrill of watching that ball soar, the fresh breeze on the course, and that satisfying click of a perfect swing? Absolutely. But golf is so much richer than that. For many of us, golf gives purpose: a challenge to master ourselves, a journey toward personal growth with every swing and every round. Each shot is a mini-mission, each hole a quest. It’s this pursuit of improvement—against the course, conditions, and even our own tendencies—that gives golf its powerful sense of purpose. And let’s not forget the spirit of competitiveness. Some of us thrive on healthy rivalries: with our buddies on weekends, with ourselves in our best score, or even against a course that refuses to yield an easy round. That element of competition sharpens our minds and fuels that exhilarating love-hate relationship with par. Finally, it’s all about fun. The laughter on the green, the stories shared on the 19th hole, the camaraderie that builds over bogeys and birdies alike—it’s these light-hearted moments that turn a golf outing into a cherished memory. Join me as we explore how enjoyment, purpose, competitiveness, and pure fun blend together to answer the ultimate question: why do we play golf anyway? Learn more about your ad choices.

    192. HOW TO REIGNITE YOUR LOVE FOR GOLF
    2025/05/29
    https://www.siegergolf.com/first-lesson-free-page Sadly, too often we fall out of love with golf. There are various reasons for this, which, if we are aware of them, perhaps we can avoid them taking hold and causing us to sentence our golf clubs to a lifetime of dust collection in the basement. Many professionals, upon retirement, never play golf again; it was their job, their place of work, and they retired from work to pursue other activities, which makes perfect sense. But for the regular amateur to give up a game they once loved is something that need not be permanent. In today's podcast, we explore the reasons people fall out of love with the game and offer several suggestions and strategies to rekindle that love affair. https://www.siegergolf.com/first-lesson-free-page Learn more about your ad choices.
