What does it take to go from hitting worn-out golf balls in Fiji to winning The Masters and becoming World #1? In this episode, we sit down with PGA Hall of Famer and legend Vijay Singh to hear how the game of golf—and the road to greatness—has changed over the years. From self-taught swings and practicing without cameras to his thoughts on LIV vs PGA, Vijay shares what the game looked like before the money and tech took over. Golf lovers, competitors, and homeowners alike will take something from this conversation about grit, focus, and what it means to stay committed when no one’s watching. “The only way to stay ahead is to stay ready.” — Quinton Harris Connect with us: Youtube: /@whatsyour1more Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/whats-your-1-more/id1647180355
