Description

Jim sits down with Coach Ryan Hybl, the head coach of the University of Oklahoma Men's Golf team and recent inductee into the Golf Coaches Association of America Hall of Fame. Coach Hybl shares his journey through junior golf as a top ranked played, playing collegiately and starting coaching at the University of Georgia and eventually coming to Norman in 2009.


We discuss how he rebuilt the Sooners' program from the ground up, eventually leading to a NCAA Championship in 2017. Coach Hybl discusses his philosophy on player development, recruiting overlooked talent, and fostering a team-first culture. He highlights stories of standout players like Max McGreevy, Quade Cummins, and Chris Gotterup, emphasizing how belief, hard work, and leadership have shaped the program's sustained excellence.


In the Opening Tee Shot, Jim is joined by Justin Bardgett from the PGA Tour Pathways to discuss the recently announced changes to the PGA Tour University and Accelerated system, further strengthening the links between high-level college golf and playing professionally.


In Angle of Attack with Andrew Lewis, Andrew discusses techniques, strategies and mindset for managing tough conditions (turf, wind and temperature) that are typical in many parts of the country during the winter months.
