08/08/12 The Golf Insiders - a podcast by The Golf Insiders

Holly G is joined in the studio by Michael Jamison, International Network of Golf, Sean Gorgone, PGA Class A Pro.

Todd Lewis, the Golf Channel, calls in from S.C. to talk about the PGA Championship and the changes to the grass and the wind that surrounds the course and how it affects the play. Todd also comments that this is the longest golf course. Holly asks Todd who he thinks will do well at the event and how the play of some of the players play of lately will affect them.

Mike Jamison talks with Todd about the fact that players are ready to play once they leave the Web.com Tour, like Keegan Bradley is doing. Todd also mentions that Tiger is not as formidable as he has been in the past where players didn't think they could beat him. Todd also mentions a heated debate segment upcoming on the Golf Channel about the status of Anchoring the Putter.

Jeff Shain, Orlando Sentinel, calls in from S.C and updates everyone on the weather and how much rain has been falling in the area and how it may affect the tournament. Jeff discusses Tiger's putting and how it is improving of late. Holly and Jeff review Furyk's collapse and failure to close the deal at the Bridgestone Invitational where Keegan Bradley walked away with the tournament title. Jeff feels like Dustin Johnson to win the PGA Championship.

Dr Bob Winters, calls in and talks about what it takes to get in the right state of mind to play golf. Bob mentions that it is 72 holes of golf and nothing is over until the end of the tournament. You have to keep playing until the game is over and you can't really try to protect the green. Jim Furyk shot a 69 but Bradley shot a 64 to win.

Sean asks Dr. Bob about Tiger. Dr. Bob feels that Tiger needs to take it one play at a time and go back to his basic mental fundamentals. That is how he won so many championships and if he wants to beat Jack's record, Tiger needs to go back to the mental basics and he can do it. Dr. Bob Winters is teaching out of the David Leadbetter Academy and can be reached online at www.DrBobWinters.com.

Bob Harig, ESPN.com, calls in to talk to the team about the weather at Kiawah Island Resort (Ocean), Kiawah Island, South Carolina. Bob discusses the player's take on the golf course there and how most have been very complimentary so far about the cours. Bob feels that may change depending upon the weather as the tournament gets underway.

Holly asks Bob if there is someone flying under the radar who might step to the front and win the PGA Championship? So much parody on the Tour of late.
