Jimmy Abdo joined the podcast to talk about his wild ride to the quarterfinals of the U.S. Amateur this year at the Olympic Club. Jimmy entered the tournament ranked 4,292nd in the world amateur golf rankings and made an impressive run to the round of 16, beating some highly ranked players in the process. The D3 player from Gustavus Adolphus College in Minnesota will recap how the matches went, what he learned from the process and what comes next for him.

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.
