    EP 135: How Clark Won the BMW — Breaking Down a Champion's Swing

    This week on the pod, we're breaking down one of the gutsiest closes we've seen all year — Wyndham Clark held off Rory McIlroy at the BMW Championship, giving back a five-shot lead before closing with three straight birdies to win by three. Third win of his season, plus the U.S. Open, and he's punched his ticket to the Presidents Cup team.  From there, we're kicking off a brand new segment: Emulate or Admire. Each week we'll break down a PGA Tour victor's swing — not to copy it move-for-move, but to pull out the pieces worth studying and why they work. First up: Wyndham Clark. We're getting into his tempo, his lower-body sequencing, and what let him repeat his swing under pressure even after a rocky start Sunday — because that's the biomechanics story here as much as it is the golf story. Plus — a quick shoutout to Scott Jamieson's win at the Nexo Championship, his first DP World Tour title in almost 14 years, and closer to home, the U18 Australian women's water polo team who beat Spain in the final to become world champions — way to go Team Cooke! As always, it all comes back to this: golf improvement is tied to how you move. Own Your SSWING.

    EP 133: A Quick Round Is A Good Round

    This week on Pivot The Path, we're coming off a wild final round at the Wyndham Championship — the last stop before the FedEx Cup Playoffs field gets locked in.  Michael Brennan once again proved his nerve under pressure, with a final round -6, including 5 consecutive birdies to hold off a strong, albeit, up and down round from Beau Hossler - searching for his maiden victory. As a family business, we sincerely find joy in Mum and Dad being the first to congratulate their son with the powerful words, “We’re going to the Masters”. Trophies and checks are nice - a strong family unit is key!! On the flip side, Brooks Koepka walked off Sedgefield admitting he has no confidence over the ball right now. Same sport, same pressure, two completely different results. That contrast is exactly where we're headed this week: A quick round is a good round. The research backs up what we preach at SSWING: the best players commit to their pre-shot in 10-15 seconds increments. No hovering, no second-guessing. Under pressure, golfers tend to start overthinking their mechanics instead of trusting them — and that's when things fall apart. Speed isn't about rushing. It's about not giving doubt a seat at the table.

    EP 132: It's Not How Far, It's How Precise

    Michael Thorbjornsen finally broke through in Detroit — a bogey-free, career-low 63 to win his first PGA Tour title at the last-ever Rocket Classic, running down third-round leader Davis Riley. His words after the win say it all: "It doesn't matter how far you hit it. It matters if you can hit certain numbers and certain shots." Scott's been saying it for years — Michael just proved it on a Sunday leaderboard. That's this week's whole pivot — distance is a byproduct, precision is a skill you actually have to train. Shiho Kuwaki wins her first LPGA title — and it's a major — outlasting Esther Henseleit in a playoff at the AIG Women's Open, adapting her shot shape entirely to the links conditions at Royal Lytham & St. Annes. And on the Korn Ferry Tour, Derek Hitchner survives a wild five-man playoff to win the Utah Championship — his first career title in his 18th start, after calling his own season a total struggle up to that point.

    EP 131: Dominate. Trust. Confidence.

    A 21-year-old in just his third pro start went at two par-5s down the stretch — including a 233-yard approach with the lead on the line — and beat World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler by three. Written on Jackson Koivun's glove that week: Dominate. Trust. Confidence. Three words that turned out to be the whole story. This week, Scott breaks down Koivun's stunning 3M Open win and Lucas Herbert's dominant 30-under week on LIV, and pulls apart what those three words actually mean in that order — dominance as the result, confidence as what shows up on the surface, and trust as the swing underneath both that makes them possible. We get into what separates "going for it" from "managing a miss," why Scheffler's bounce-back numbers tell a different story this season, and what it takes to build a move you trust enough to play aggressive golf without fear. Plus, this week's Own Your SSWING insight on building that trust into your own game.

    EP 129: Attack Your Game. Don't Wait For It To Happen.

    There's a reason pressure feels different for 220 million Brazilians hoping their team advances in the World Cup than it does for 5.5 million Norwegians who are just thrilled to be on the pitch. Pressure isn't the same for everyone — and this week on the PGA Tour, we watched that exact dynamic play out on a golf course. Chris Gotterup teed off six groups back at the John Deere Classic with basically nothing to lose. He went bogey-free for a 62 and walked away with the trophy. Meanwhile, the two guys who'd carried the lead all week — Lucas Glover and Lee Hodges — played it safe, made pars, and watched the win slip away. Same golf course. Same conditions. Completely different pressure, completely different swings. Then it's this week's Improvement Pivot Point — why protecting a lead physically changes your motion before your brain even registers you're nervous, and what that means for your own game the next time you're standing over a putt that matters. The fix? Stop protecting. Attack it instead. Own Your SSWING.

    EP 128: Precision in Practice, Trust on the Course

    Precision in practice. Trust on the course. That's the theme this week — and Viktor Hovland just proved it in the most dramatic way possible. Episode 128 is here, and Scott's breaking down one of the wildest weekends we've seen in a while. The Travelers Championship — the last $20M Signature Event of the year — couldn't even finish on Sunday. Scheffler and Hovland finished tied at 21-under after an 83-minute rain delay blew the whole thing wide open, with Hovland roaring back with three straight birdies to force a Monday playoff. He closed it out on No. 18 the next morning — his first win since last year's Valspar — and we've got the full story of how he got there. Over on the LPGA side, the KPMG Women's PGA Championship at Hazeltine brought its own Sunday drama, with Haeran Ryu holding off a hard-charging field and Nelly Korda chasing a third straight major. And on the DP World Tour, Eugenio Chacarra birdied the 72nd hole to steal the KLM Open by a single shot. Different tours, same story all week: the player who trusted their game in the clutch walked away with the trophy. That's exactly what this week's improvement segment is about — precision in practice is what lets you trust it when you play. Hovland didn't claw his way back by gritting his teeth and trying harder. He bogeyed four of his first ten holes, used that rain delay to reset, and came out firing three straight birdies — because the mechanics were already in there.  That's not luck, that's reps. That's what it means to Own Your SSWING —Scott breaks down what that means for your own game, and why what you do between rounds is what shows up when it counts.
