My Favourite Golf Podcasts

My Favourite Golf Podcasts is a short golf blog post that looks at a list of my all-time favourite Golf podcasts from around the world. As a PGA Fellow Professional, I appreciate a mix of high-level instruction and deep-dive analysis into the pro game. Whether you’re looking for tournament previews, stories, or equipment reviews, here are the most popular and highly-regarded golf podcasts for 2026. The Heavy Hitters These shows dominate the charts by blending humour with deep access to Tour players and industry insiders. No Laying Up: Widely considered the gold standard for pro-golf coverage. They offer a “fan-first” perspective but with high-level intelligence on the PGA Tour, LIV, and DP World Tour. Fore Play (Barstool Sports): Hosted by Riggs and Trent, this is the most popular “common man” podcast. It’s lighthearted and focused on golf culture, often featuring big-name player interviews. The Shotgun Start: Co-hosted by Andy Johnson (The Fried Egg) and Brendan Porath. It’s famous for its wit and “deep-dive” nerdery on the more obscure but fascinating parts of the pro schedule. Subpar: Hosted by former PGA Tour pro Colt Knost and Drew Stoltz. Their chemistry and “locker room” style interviews with players are some of the best in the business. Instructional & Coaching Focus These are likely the most relevant for professional development and staying on top of modern coaching trends. On The Mark: Mark Immelman is one of the best in the business. He interviews top instructors, players, and performance experts. It is a must-listen for anyone interested in the technical and mental side of the game. The Rick Shiels Golf Show: While Rick is a massive YouTube personality, his podcast (co-hosted by Guy Charnock) is excellent for gear reviews, industry news, and coaching anecdotes. Hack It Out Golf: Featuring Mark Crossfield, Lou Stagner, and Greg Chalmers. This is a fantastic resource for data-driven insights (via Stagner) and “real-world” coaching banter. The Sweet Spot: Hosted by Adam Young and Jon Sherman. This focuses heavily on the mental game and practice structures—great for picking up tips to pass on to students. Architecture & Deep Lore The Fried Egg Golf Podcast: The premier choice for those interested in course architecture and design. Andy Johnson’s episodes often feature architects discussing the “why” behind famous layouts. The Golfer’s Journal Podcast: A more “literary” approach to the game. It focuses on the storytelling and soul of golf rather than scores and leaderboards. UK & European Focus These provide excellent context for the DP World Tour and British club life. Sky Sports Golf Podcast: Hosted by Jamie Weir and Josh Antmann. Perfect for staying up to date with the weekly news across all tours with a British slant. The Bunkered Podcast: The leading podcast from the Scottish-based magazine, covering everything from the home of golf, with great guest interviews. Life On Tour: The official DP World Tour podcast, offering inside stories from the European circuit. The Chipping Forecast: Andrew Cotter, Eddie Pepperell and Iain Carter are telling stories about the world of golf. What are your thoughts about My Favourite Golf Podcasts?
