We also talk about the new era of golf media: the fragmentation of content, why it’s a net positive, and how creators are changing storytelling around major events. Roger reflects on the 2025 Ryder Cup, then shares big hopes for the Presidents Cup in Chicago—a chance for a true “redemption story,” stronger team energy, and a global spotlight on the city (and the newly redesigned Medinah Country Club).
Finally, Roger highlights his work making golf more inclusive in Chicago along with KemperSports, and calls out the local courses that matter most—plus his personal philosophy on competition, curiosity, and improving while balancing parenthood.
