The mics are hot and the takes are hotter on this week’s Tales From The Tips.

DA and 15-year Tour Caddy Mick Middlemo bounce from the rink to the range, celebrating big hockey wins before diving headfirst into everything happening across the PGA Tour, the DP World Tour, and the women’s game. From player breakdowns and comeback stories to bold predictions for The Masters Tournament, nothing is off limits.

Expect sharp analysis, locker-room laughs, and a few classic DA rants about national pride, golf traditions, and protecting the integrity of the game we all love. It’s equal parts insight and inside-the-ropes storytelling — like riding the cart with your funniest (and most opinionated) golf buddies.

If you love birdies, bold takes, and behind-the-scenes Tour life, this episode is a must-listen.

This week on Tales From The Tips, DA and 15-year Tour Caddy Mick Middlemo are firing absolute darts — breaking down comebacks, collapses, and the controlled chaos that is pro golf.

We’re talking the wild return of Anthony Kim, why surviving the PGA Tour feels like a weekly bar fight with yardage books, and the magic (and misery) of Pebble Beach Golf Links. Then the gloves come off over Riviera Country Club — classic gem or straight-up bully?

Plus:
🐅 Is Tiger Woods gearing up for one more run at Masters Tournament?

🔥 Is Justin Thomas officially back in “don’t-bet-against-him” mode?

🌍 And what does Olympic golf actually mean for the game?

It’s insider caddie stories, tour-life truths, hot takes, and the kind of laugh-out-loud banter you only get from two guys who’ve lived inside the ropes. Whether you’re a 20-handicap, a scratch stick, or just here for the chaos, this episode delivers.

In this episode of Tales From The Tips, DA and 15-year Tour Caddy Mick Middlemo welcome Chris Fortney for a sharp, funny, and brutally honest trip through the week in golf—equal parts insider intel and “how did that just happen?” moments.

Fresh off the floor of the PGA Show, the guys unpack the newest gear, training tech, and gadgets that promise to fix your slice (but probably can’t fix your swing thoughts). Then they break down Hideki Matsuyama at the Waste Management Phoenix Open—including the tough Sunday slide that turned a contender’s week into a reminder that closing on Tour is a whole different animal.

As always, Mick brings the caddie perspective you won’t hear anywhere else: what really happens under pressure, how decisions get made when the heat’s on, and why one wrong number can wreck four days of great golf. The crew debates what separates a “great player” from a true superstar, why the The Players Championship feels like a major, and how even legends get exposed at Pebble Beach Golf Links.

They also dive into the changing business of the sport—NIL deals, early spotlight pressure, and what it means for young talents like Charlie Woods, growing up with the last name of Tiger Woods.

It’s laughs, locker-room stories, smart strategy, and just enough chaos to feel like you’re riding in the cart with us.
