The Golf Guy Podcast -- Greg Nathan, President & CEO of the National Golf Foundation

Greg Nathan, after having been a competitive tennis player as a junior, decided in his early 20's that he wanted to have a career in golf. We talk with Greg about the remarkable journey he then pursued to reach this goal, and how through a combination of impressive persistence and some good fortune, he eventually got a job at the SI Golf Group and then subsequently joined the National Golf Foundation where he ultimately rose to being President & CEO. We then discuss what the NGF does and how it serves as the umbrella trade association for the entire golf industry, and cover various topics including the current state of the game, the role of non-green grass facilities in being an on-ramp for new golfers, the importance of the pro game and his thoughts on the future of the game.
