From Rock Bottom to Remarkable: Leigh Steinberg on The Comeback & Giving Back, Scott Hamilton on Resilience & Never Giving Up, John Inman on Golf & the Changing Landscape of Sports & the PGA Tour

This week on Next on the Tee, three champions join me to share stories that go far beyond sports. Legendary sports agent Leigh Steinberg, 1984 NCAA Champion John Inman, and Olympic Gold Medalist Scott Hamilton open up about overcoming adversity, leadership, perseverance, and the lessons they've learned at the highest levels of competition. Leigh Steinberg takes us inside his remarkable journey from representing some of the biggest names in sports to battling alcoholism, losing everything, and fighting his way back. We discuss his inspiring new book, The Comeback: A Playbook for Turning Life's Setbacks Into Victories, the heartfelt foreword written by Troy Aikman, the importance of giving back, the changing landscape of college athletics, NIL, sports gambling, and what true success really means. John Inman returns to share his thoughtful perspective on today's college sports environment, whether NIL has shifted the balance too far toward athletes, the growing influence of gambling across sports, and why fan behavior is becoming a concern in professional golf. He also reflects on his unforgettable years at the University of North Carolina during one of the greatest championship eras in college athletics. Then, Olympic legend Scott Hamilton joins me for one of the most inspiring conversations we've ever had. Scott looks back on carrying the American flag during the 1980 Winter Olympics, shares behind-the-scenes stories from Lake Placid and his friendship with legendary skier Ingemar Stenmark, discusses covering his 10th Winter Olympics for NBC, and explains why one simple message has become his philosophy for living a joyful life: our possessions are just "garbage"—it's our relationships, experiences, and gratitude that truly matter. Whether you're passionate about golf, sports, leadership, personal growth, or simply need a reminder that setbacks don't define your future, this episode delivers unforgettable stories, practical wisdom, and a healthy dose of Vitamin G—gratitude. #GolfPodcast #Golf #GolfLife #GolfTips #GolfInstruction #GolfCommunity #Golfers #PGA #PGATour #GolfLegends #GolfHistory #MentalGame #SportsPodcast #Podcast #Leadership #Resilience #Comeback #NeverGiveUp #PersonalGrowth #Motivation #Inspiration #SuccessMindset #LeighSteinberg #ScottHamilton #JohnInman #TroyAikman #Olympics #OlympicChampion #FigureSkating #CollegeSports #NIL #SportsBusiness #SportsLeadership #SportsAgent #SportsGambling #NorthCarolinaGolf #ChampionMindset #PeakPerformance #WinningMindset #VitaminG #Gratitude #NextOnTheTee
