Ep 192 - Rich Beem: The Major Winner Who Did It His Own Way

In this episode, we sit down with Rich Beem — major champion, fan favourite, and one of the most honest voices in golf. Rich takes us inside his incredible win at the 2002 PGA Championship, going toe-to-toe with Tiger Woods down the stretch, and what it really felt like to close out one of the biggest events in the game. Brent actually became a fan of Rich after reading about his journey 20+ years ago — drawn to his personality, honesty, and the very different path he took compared to the modern, ultra-structured Tour player. We dive into that side of his career — the lifestyle, the lack of structure at times, and how it all played a role in both his success and inconsistency. This is a raw and honest conversation about:

• What it actually takes to win at the highest level
• The reality of life on Tour (that most people never see)
• Whether he left anything on the table
• And what he would do differently if he had his time again

For junior golfers, parents, and anyone chasing improvement — this episode is full of perspective, lessons, and a few stories you won’t hear anywhere else.
