About this episode
This episode is a little different — and that’s exactly why I wanted to do it.Today I’m joined by Jimmy Emanuel, a golf journalist, commentator, and podcaster who’s worked across Golf Australia magazines and spent years talking with some of Australia’s best golfers.Rather than coaching swing mechanics or tour prep, this conversation pulls back the curtain on how golf stories are told — and what players, parents, and coaches can learn from the media side of the game. We talk about:How Jimmy got into golf journalism and commentaryWhat he’s learned from interviewing elite Australian golfersWhat separates players who “make it” from those who don’t — from a journalist’s perspectiveHow golf media has changed with podcasts, social media, and digital platformsHow junior golfers and parents should think about media, storytelling, and the bigger golf ecosystemThe realities (and misconceptions) of working in golf mediaThis is a behind-the-scenes look at the game from someone who doesn’t coach or play professionally — but has seen the sport from angles most golfers never experience. If you’re a junior golfer, parent, coach, or just someone curious about how golf really works beyond the ropes, this episode will give you a fresh perspective.Follow Jimmy Click HereWe thank Titleist - The number 1 brand in golf for their continued support of the YGP Podcast!?
