9 Holes, 9 Questions – Golf Saved My Life is a podcast where we treat nine questions like nine holes and play through someone’s story in golf.

Holes 1–3: golfing origins – first memories, early obsession, and the moment the game hooked them.

Holes 4–6: their game now – handicap, practice, gear, and the best/worst holes they’ve ever played.

Holes 7–9: mindset and life – pressure, mental health, and where they want golf to take them next.

Hosted by Sam from Golf Saved My Life, this show is about more than scorecards – it’s about how golf can test you, shape you, and sometimes save you.

    Episode 23: James Rooney Golf on Coaching, Competing and Finding His Way Back to Golf
    2026/07/14

    In Episode 23 of Nine Holes, Nine Questions, I’m joined by PGA golf coach and competitive golfer James Rooney.

    James shares his journey from growing up around golf in Scotland, heading to America to play college golf, stepping away from the game after burnout, and eventually finding his way back through coaching and competing.

    We talk about the reality of mini tour golf, the financial challenges of chasing professional golf, why coaching and playing do not always naturally translate, and what amateur golfers can do to practise more effectively.

    James also opens up about burnout, high-functioning depression, anxiety, therapy, changing career paths, fatherhood, and why golf became a sanctuary during a difficult period in his life.

    This episode is packed with insight for amateur golfers, golf content creators, anyone thinking about lessons, and anyone interested in the real side of coaching, competing and chasing improvement in golf.

  • Episode 22: Ally from Chasing Pars – From Hating Golf to Building a Golf Community

    Episode 22: Ally from Chasing Pars – From Hating Golf to Building a Golf Community
    2026/07/07

    In Episode 22 of Nine Holes, Nine Questions, I’m joined by Ally from Chasing Pars.


    Ally has been podcasting for around 15 years, starting in football before moving into the golf space with Out Here Chasing Pars. In this episode, we talk about how he went from thinking golf was an old man’s game to becoming completely hooked after lockdown.


    We discuss golf, podcasting, the UK golf creator community, fitness, weight loss, competitiveness, mental health, family, and why the stories behind normal golfers can be just as powerful as the biggest names in the game.


    Ally opens up about going from 23 stone to changing his lifestyle, using fitness and running as part of his routine, finding golf after football, and how conversations on the golf course can sometimes feel like free therapy.


    This episode is about much more than chasing pars. It’s about finding something that gives you purpose, connection, competition and community.


    Listen to Out Here Chasing Pars for more golf conversations from across the golf community.

  • Episode 21: Andy from 28to8Golf on Chasing an 8 Handicap

    Episode 21: Andy from 28to8Golf on Chasing an 8 Handicap
    2026/06/30

    In Episode 21 of Nine Holes, Nine Questions, I’m joined by Andy from 28to8Golf.

    Andy started his page to document his journey from a 28 handicap towards his goal of reaching 8, and in this episode we talk about the reality of trying to get better at golf as a normal amateur golfer.

    We discuss handicap goals, playing links golf at St Anne’s Old Links, why golf becomes so addictive, the importance of practice and data, tinkering with equipment, playing top courses, and sharing the game with his son.

    Andy also talks about being part of Ginger Golf’s world record attempt, helping behind the scenes, and how the golf community opened doors, created friendships and changed his experience of the game.

    This is a great episode for anyone chasing a lower handicap, trying to improve their golf, or simply obsessed with the journey of getting better.
