  • 200. THE TOUGHEST EVENT IN GOLF
    Aug 14 2025
    https://www.siegergolf.com/online-courses This week, we delve into Tommy Fleetwood's latest heartbreaker at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Despite holding a five-shot lead midway and a two-stroke advantage with five holes remaining, Fleetwood faltered late, finishing tied for third. This marks his 46th top-10 finish without a PGA Tour win, a record dating back to 1983 . What can he do to fix this scenario, Robin discusses. Yet, there's a silver lining: Fleetwood has secured his spot on Team Europe for the upcoming Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, joining Justin Rose and Rory McIlroy . As we preview the September showdown, we assess Europe's prospects of clinching a rare away victory and examine the dynamics within Team USA under player-captain Keegan Bradley. Stay tuned as we explore the narratives shaping golf's most intense competition. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • 199. WHAT MAKES SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER TICK?
    Jul 31 2025
    Welcome back to The Golfing Mind, the podcast that explores the inner game of golf—where performance begins between the ears, not just between the fairways. This week, we're diving deep into the mindset of the man who’s dominating the game like few others have in recent years—Scottie Scheffler. Calm, consistent, and quietly competitive, Scheffler isn’t just winning tournaments—he’s redefining what mental toughness on the golf course looks like. So what makes him tick? What’s going on behind that steady demeanour and unshakeable rhythm? In this episode, I’ll unpack the psychological traits, routines, and mental habits that set Scheffler apart—and more importantly, I’ll share how you can apply some of those same mental tools to improve your own game, whether you're playing in a Major Championship or simply trying to beat your friends. Let’s get into it—because if golf is a game of inches, most of them are in your head. https://www.siegergolf.com/ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Jul 10 2025
    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.
