Tom Johnson: Coaching, Competition, and the Soul of Golf (Part 2)

This is Part 2 of our conversation with Tom Johnson. If you haven’t listened to Part 1 yet, it’s worth starting there.After sharing the story of his journey through professional golf and recovery, Tom turns to what he’s learned from the game since then. We talk about how his experience as a player shaped his philosophy as a teacher, why ego can be the biggest obstacle in improvement, and what separates golfers who actually get better from those who stay stuck.Along the way, Tom explains the lessons he learned from some of the game’s most respected instructors, the different ways players practice and compete, and why golf continues to challenge and shape him today.We close by asking Tom what the “soul of golf” means to him after everything he’s experienced in the game.Contact us: weekdaygolfpodcast@gmail.com Instagram: @weekdaygolfpodcastYouTube: @weekdaygolfpodcastTwitter/X: @weekdaygolfpodDesign by: Austin WooldridgeMusic provided by: ⁠https://www.classicals.de/mozart-figaro
