from Next on the Tee: Where Golf Legends Live & Your Game Gets Better · host Chris Mascaro
Mark and I walk through is amazing career on this segment of the show. We talk about his junior golf days playing against Jack Nicklaus II and his relationship with the Nicklaus family, his time at the University of Florida in the late 70s, all the way up to his time on the Champions Tour. Hear about how he earned his Tour card going through Q-School multiple times, his first win at the 1986 Southwest Golf Classic, his memories of the '86 Masters, the heartbreak of Sandy Lyle's birdie on the last hole to beat him in the 1988 Masters, to this thrilling win at the 1989 Open Championship in a playoff over Greg Norman, and Wayne Grady, and why he wore bacon theme pants during his 2015 victory at the Principal Charity Classic.
