In Part 2 of Season 13, Episode 5, we sharpen the most important club in your bag — your mind.

Dr. Bob Winters, “The Confidence Doctor,” returns with a powerful lesson on patience, resilience, and mental toughness in golf. This month’s Dr. Bob-ism says it all: “Patience is confidence waiting to happen.” We dive into how emotional control, persistence, and belief directly impact your scores — especially when the round starts going sideways. If you’re looking to lower scores through better golf psychology and course management, this segment is for you.

Then Dave Stockton Jr. makes his long-overdue return to the show. We talk about the legendary Stockton family’s influence on the game, Ryder Cup success, and why their winning mindset could be exactly what Team USA needs next time around. Dave also shares stories from recent rounds at some incredible West Coast golf courses, including time spent at Goathill Park, the oceanside public course co-owned by Bill Murray, plus hanging out with Dodgers and Padres legend Steve Garvey.

From mental game mastery to Ryder Cup strategy and hidden gem golf courses, this episode blends instruction, insight, and great stories from inside the game.

Thank you for pressing play and being part of the journey.

Scott McCarron and Juli Inkster join me for an unforgettable episode filled with major championship stories, Solheim Cup drama, and insight into the future of professional golf.

We also revisit the Miracle on Ice and another iconic Winter Olympic moment.

World Golf Hall of Famer Juli Inkster reflects on winning the 1986 Mixed Team Championship with our friend Tom Purtzer, her 17-win college career at San Jose State, her first LPGA win as a rookie, and her emotional 1999 U.S. Women’s Open victory at age 38. Plus, an incredible Solheim Cup comeback story from 2015 and her legacy at San Jose State.

On this edition of Next on the Tee, we blend game improvement with big-time sports conversation.

Leading things off is LPGA Class A Teaching Professional and Top 50 LPGA Instructor Debbie O’Connell. Debbie shares insights from her upcoming Conquer Your Golf Mind session and explains how mastering your mindset can transform not just your golf game—but your life. We dive into practical tips you can take straight to the course, including how to gain confidence in greenside bunkers, eliminate negative self-talk, stop labeling clubs as “can't hit it,” and create more power through better body rotation. She also walks us through the importance of forward shaft lean at impact, and what she’s building with her Business Golf Live venture.

Then we switch gears with Boston Globe columnist and acclaimed sports journalist Chad Finn. We kick things off with a look back at the 1980 “Miracle on Ice” and where it ranks among the greatest moments in sports history before breaking down the Super Bowl, Drake Maye’s performance and mindset, and the Patriots’ future under Mike Vrabel. From there, we head to Red Sox spring training to discuss offseason moves, roster decisions, Roman Anthony’s rising expectations, and whether Boston has done enough to compete in the AL East. Chad also shares insights from his outstanding books chronicling the Boston Celtics from 1946 to the present and more than a century of Red Sox history.

It’s a full episode packed with instruction, perspective, and stories from two outstanding guests.

Settle in and enjoy.
