In this episode of Golfweek Amateur Tour – The Podcast, Tim Newman, Chris Rocha, and Roger tee up the laughs, drop some serious amateur golf rule knowledge, and spotlight the passion that fuels our golf community.We’re also heading to the beautiful Mission Inn Resort for the Howie in the Hills regional, where players took on the rare Florida hills and came out swinging—including former PGA Tour pro Dave Rummels, who staged an epic Champ Flight comeback with four birdies on the back nine.
