In this episode of Wicked Smart Golf, I'm joined by professional golfer Chris Petefish, who's climbed inside the top 300 in the world and knows firsthand how tough the journey really is.

We dive into his path from being a top high school recruit to playing at Georgia Tech, then grinding it out on mini tours and the Korn Ferry Tour. Chris shares what it's really like chasing status, including coming up short by a single shot multiple times and battling through injuries at the worst possible moments.

This is a great episode on what it actually takes to make it in professional golf—mentally, physically, and strategically.

What You'll Learn in This Episode

The reality of Q-School and why it's one of the toughest environments in golf
How Chris shifted from relying on talent to using stats, data, and strategy
The importance of mental game training (meditation, routines, and staying present)
Why strokes gained and tracking stats can completely change your expectations
Course management lessons—stop forcing birdies and start eliminating mistakes
