2013 Sr. Open Champion Mark Wiebe and Actor Turned ESPN Radio Host Matthew Laurance Join Me...

On this edition of Next on the Tee my guests are: 2013 Sr. Open Champion Mark Wiebe and Actor turned ESPN Radio Host Matthew Laurance join me. 

Mark is a wonderful instructor now, and he and I talked about his coaching style, whether he is a Trackman coaching by the number guy or if he is old school looking at a player’s swing path and ball flight. I got his thoughts on coaching junior players and how he keeps them engaged in a world of short attention spans and the need for instant gratification. We also talked about his playing days on Tour competing against some of the greatest players of all-time like Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson and guys who were in the primes back in the 80’s & 90’s plus what his “welcome to the PGA Tour kid” moment was.

Matthew is a fantastic actor who starred in movies like Eddie & The Cruisers and Steets of Fire plus TV shows like Saturday Night Live, Beverly Hills 90210, Duet, and 30 Something. We talked a little bit about some of the roles he played plus if there’s a chance that there will be an Eddie & The Cruisers 3. I got Matthew’s thoughts about the 2018 Barbasol Championship which is being moved to Lexington, Kentucky where he lives now. We also talked about his home course, Kearney Hill and the Pete Dye course up at the French Lick Resort….plus a whole lot more.
