Podcast & Lectures by Chris Brook

The Players’ Room Golf Podcast for Golfers

Three decades of coaching thinking, recorded for golfers: how to read the shot in front of you, why the swing you find on the range goes missing on the course, and how to play when the score starts to matter. Join for the full library, or buy single episodes as you need them.

01Four channels of coaching thinking

The thinking behind better golf, in your ears

Every episode takes one problem golfers bring into the studio and gives it the time a lesson rarely allows. The library is built around four areas, drawn from the books and from three decades of work with players.

CHANNEL · SHORT GAME

Read the shot first

How to read the lie, picture how the ball will come out and choose the shot the lie allows, before you pull a club.

CHANNEL · PRACTICE

Practice that turns up on the course

Why the swing you find on the range goes missing at the first tee, and how to practise so it doesn’t.

CHANNEL · PRESSURE

Getting out of your own way

Expectation, tension and the story you tell yourself on the first tee, and how to stop them costing you shots.

CHANNEL · YOUR SWING

Your swing in plain words

What the numbers from a lesson actually mean, and the one or two that are worth caring about in your game.

Podcast or lecture? Podcasts are audio you can listen to anywhere. Lectures come with the slides, so they’re best followed at a desk. Every episode in the list below is marked so you know which you’re getting.
