  • Smylie is the man!

    Great show. I appreciate they keep it clean so I can listen in the car with the family on road trips.

    P.S. - We need some Smylie Show merch!

  • Love the golf talk. Hate the politics and college football.

    The golf insights are amazing and I love every minute of it. I don’t care about the dives into college football or the presidential stories.

  • End the “Over-Under”

    Guys, can we end the “over-under” talk? It’s so annoying. When fans watch golf, they’re not thinking “over-under”, they’re watching and thinking about golf shots.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

368: Tommy Fleetwood: Breakthrough Win At East Lake, Working With Butch Harmon, and Fatherhood
Q: What did the experience of the Open Championship at Burtdale teach you about handling nerves and expectations, given your hometown connection?
Fleetwood recalls nervousness on the first tee but emphasizes gratitude for the opportunity, plus the importance of staying present and enjoying the week while still competing at the highest level.
368: Tommy Fleetwood: Breakthrough Win At East Lake, Working With Butch Harmon, and Fatherhood
Q: Can you explain what those preparations look like on a practice week, especially with a condensed schedule and your work with Butch Harmon?
He describes a disciplined approach, focusing on core changes, maintaining his swing under pressure, and using simple drills that keep the swing in a good place rather than chasing perfect day-to-day results.
368: Tommy Fleetwood: Breakthrough Win At East Lake, Working With Butch Harmon, and Fatherhood
Q: So I think I want to start last year. You had that big win at East Lake. What were you feeling heading into those Sundays when you had the lead at Travelers, St. Jude, and beyond?
Fleetwood says excitement resided alongside nerves and doubt, but the overarching sentiment was opportunity and a sense that Sundays offered a stage to showcase what he'd learned about managing pressure and staying emotionally even.
356: Saturday at the Open Championship: Rory Responds To Bryson + Ryan Gerard Joins The Show!
Q: What is your winning score tomorrow and who's your pick to hoist the Claret Jug?
The hosts discuss Burns as the likely winner if he keeps his level; RG is projected to be in the mix with a potential playoff, while Burns at 13-under is a strong possibility.
350: John Peterson on Your Golf Tour (SPOILER), “Fore The People” YouTube Channel, + LSU Days with Smylie
Q: Do you think the next generation of players will naturally adapt to media and new formats as well as the older generation did?
Yes, because the media landscape has evolved, but the core challenge remains: presenting authentic golf in a way that engages audiences without losing the sport's integrity.
