In this episode, Julia and Kris catch up with Damien Cosby and Clark Pastrick from National Links Trust – a non-profit organization dedicated to positively impacting the Washington DC community and changing lives through affordable and accessible municipal golf. As management partner, Troon is proud to support National Links Trust in its focus to rehabilitate the municipal golf facilities in our nation’s capital: East Potomac Golf Links, Langston Golf Course, and Rock Creek Park Golf.

In this episode, Kris and co-host Tim Mahoney, Troon’s Global Director of Education and Coaching, interview Matt Fitzpatrick, 2022 U.S. Open champion and eight-time DP World Tour winner, and Dr. Sasho MacKenzie, Co-Founder of The Stack System and “Savant of Speed.” Regarded as golf’s foremost biomechanist, Dr. MacKenzie’s work and theories have driven a scientific, evidence-based revolution in golf instruction and movement training.

Joining Julia and Kris for this episode are Mike O'Neill, Executive VP of Cobbs Creek Foundation, and Meredith Foote, Executive Director of the TGR Learning Lab. Learn more about the Cobbs Creek Golf Campus currently under development in West Philadelphia, PA. Completed in phases over the next three years, the Cobbs Creek Golf Campus will serve the academic, athletic, and social-emotional needs of the youth of Philadelphia. The original Cobbs Creek Golf Course has been an important part of Philadelphia's history in its contribution to equal rights and encouraging diversity in the sport for more than 100 years, and now it is being transformed into a key component of a new model for introducing new players to the game, recreation, education, sustainability, and community.
