    Sepp Straka: Growing Up in Austria + Wedge Setup That Might Shock You 🤯

    Sepp Straka joins Smylie Kaufman on The Smylie Show for a wide-ranging conversation on fatherhood, growing up between Austria and Georgia, competing alongside his twin brother Sam, and the path that took him from an under-the-radar junior to one of the best players in the world. Sepp talks about his time at Georgia, why that qualifying culture helped shape him, how he ended up with Srixon after college, and why his equipment setup immediately gave him confidence heading into Q-School. Later, Sepp gets into the real turning points in his PGA TOUR career: the early inconsistency, working with John Tillery, using TrackMan with more purpose, improving his wedge play and short game, and building a more complete process around practice. Then Charlie joins for Short-Sided to close things out with some lighter stories on food, Georgia guys, and dad life at home. ⛳️ Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more golf insight! 📺 Follow our socials @thesmylieshow Chapters0:00 Sepp on dad life and bedtime duties3:21 Sepp’s journey from Austria to Georgia5:59 How Georgia helped shape his game10:25 Representing Austria and Olympic memories14:31 Why Sepp signed with Srixon18:19 Q-School, pressure, and early tour life27:18 Why his game finally took off29:23 John Tillery, TrackMan, and better numbers30:20 Fixing the weak spots in his short game31:05 Wedge practice, process, and improvement45:23 Short-Sided with Charlie #golf #pgatour #augusta #masters #seppstraka #smylieshow #smyliekaufman #golfpicks #golfbetting #valero #texasopen #golfhighlights

    Emotional Win for Gary Woodland! + Reacting to Tiger Woods Accident

    Gary Woodland completes one of the most emotional wins of the season at the Texas Children’s Houston Open, and Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme break down both the meaning of the moment and the golf that got it done. They dive into the harrowing neurological trauma Woodland's been dealing with privately and publicly on his seven-year journey back to the winner's circle, the ball-speed and putting numbers that stood out, and what this win means for Gary - and a number of other players inside and outside the OWGR Top 50 - as we look ahead to the Masters. Smylie and Charlie then offer a reflection on arguably the biggest news in golf this week - Tiger Woods automobile accident which involved a set of charges from the Martin County Sheriff's Department, what it means in a golf context, and the societal reaction at large to one of the game's biggest figures.
