PGA Tour Profiles: Austin Eckroat

Author: Break 80 Podcast August 20, 2026 Duration: 57:40
PGA Tour profiles is back and this week we have two-time PGA Tour champion Austin Eckroat on the Break80 Podcast. Austin will go into winning on the PGA Tour, which he did twice in 2024 and what comes with that and the pressure coming down the stretch while winning on the PGA Tour. He will also get into some of the things he practices and even his home setup in Oklahoma that other professional golfers also hang out at. Austin was part of the fabled 2018 Oklahoma State national championship team that was full of current PGA Tour players like Viktor Hovland and others. He will talk college golf and what makes Oklahoma State such a special place in the college golf world. Subscribe to the Break80 Podcast on Apple, Spotify and YouTube for weekly golf content.

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.
