Episode 42: Fun in Florida

Author: Break 80 Podcast February 28, 2023 Duration: 1:02:42
With a less than stellar field the Honda Classic still managed to produce a great finish with come great story lines.  Chris Kirk got back in the winner's circle for the first time in eight years after battles with depression and alcohol.  After near collapse, he hit a spectacular wedge shot in the playoff to beat journey man professional Eric Cole. LIV golf was back this week and things did not go to plan.  The CW ratings were abysmal and their LIV contract showed a lot of hypocrisy from big name players like Phil Mickelson.  We discuss some LIV issues and try to make sense of what they are doing currently. With the Florida swing happening and Bay Hill this week on the schedule, Tim and Jeff will talk about their trip to Florida.  For this week's Arnold Palmer Invitational, Tim will discuss Bay Hill. The picks segment is back this week as we try to get back to our winning ways making picks for the PGA picks from both Bay Hill and Puerto Rico. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Break80 Podcast is a weekly conversation with Stouds, Mike, and Tim, three friends who find as much to talk about in the game's margins as in its major championships. This isn't just a recap of tour scores; it's a deep dive into the personal stories, the memorable rounds, and the local characters that give golf its texture. You'll hear their own experiences on the course, the good shots and the bad breaks, all framed by a genuine curiosity about what makes the sport compelling. The show actively seeks out the people and places that don't always make the headlines but are essential to the game's heart. It's built on the idea that the pursuit of that magic number-breaking 80-is a universal struggle, a mix of technical challenge and personal narrative. Tuning into this podcast feels like pulling up a chair in the grill room after a round, where the discussion ranges from equipment quirks to course design, always with a focus on the camaraderie that keeps players coming back. The Break80 crew operates with the understanding that the difference between a 79 and an 80 is everything, a philosophy that colors every story they uncover and every topic they share with their listeners.
