    A superb two part interview with the 1973 Masters winner. A great player and champion, but what comes across is a great gentleman who played golf at the highest level and is still a humble man. Why isn’t Tommy in the World Hall of Fame ?

  • Excellent podcast series

    What a great concept and so well executed. This is a wonderful contribution to the oral history of the game and will be a great resource for future golf enthusiasts and golf historians to access. Despite his excellent playing record, this series may well turn out to be Mr Devlin’s finest and most lasting contribution to the game of golf. Great work fellas.

  • Good Show

    Love the hosts. They are excellent. Don’t understand the uploads though. They re-upload old episodes again and again but some they never upload the second part. For instance where is the second part for the interview with Padraig Harrington? Overall grateful for this pod.

Donna Andrews - Part 1 (The Early Years)
Q: What aspects of your game needed the furthest development to compete on the LPGA Tour?
It was my short game. No questions asked. I tended to hit a lot of fairways and a lot of greens, so I didn't have to use my short game a lot.

Q: How was your experience competing on the boys' team in high school?
I was very well accepted. The guys loved having a girl on their team and I was either number one or two man just about every year.
