23 - Chandler Withington on Archive 22 and Hazeltine National

In this episode of the Driven Golf Podcast, host Jim Colton interviews Chandler Withington (@chandlerwithington), a longtime head professional at Hazeltine National and founder of Archive 22. Withington shares his inspiring path from his early days in golf to his career as a PGA professional at Seminole, Merion, and eventually at Hazeltine (site of the 2024 U.S. Amateur). Listeners will gain insight into the importance of family and faith in Withington's life, his transition from golf to his artistic venture, and his dedication to preserving golf history through his hand-drawn artwork at Archive 22. Withington’s anecdotes about significant moments, such as working with Davis Love III during the Ryder Cup, emphasize the impact of mentorship and the lasting relationships formed in the golf community. In Angle of Attack with Andrew Lewis (1:11:55), Andrew & Jim discuss the concept of ball control and having a swing blueprint as being a key differentiating factor between golfers averaging 74 and those averaging 72.
