056: Greg Chalmers – Becoming the PGA Tour’s Best Putter; Playing on Tour for 20 Years

The Tournament Code

In this episode, we are joined by Greg Chalmers (@GregChalmersPGA). Greg was introduced to golf at a young age by his dad and he quickly became hooked. Greg's dedication to the sport led his father to support his passion, giving him five years to pursue golf before returning to college if things didn't work out. That was never necessary, as Greg eventually got status on the European Tour, then the PGA Tour, and has spent most of his career on Korn Ferry/Nationwide Tour and the PGA Tour.
