What was Bobby Jones really like away from the golf course? What were his final words to his family? And what does it take to keep chasing your PGA Tour dreams when success seems years away?
This week on Next on the Tee, Dr. Bob Jones IV, grandson of the legendary Bobby Jones, shares intimate family stories about one of golf’s greatest icons. We explore his grandfather’s humility, his early struggles with his temper, the role faith played in his life, and the extraordinary grace he displayed during his final years. Doc also shares powerful perspectives on gratitude, forgiveness, letting go of control, and the life lessons golf teaches us.
Then, former PGA Tour pro Barry Cheesman takes us on his remarkable journey from professional baseball in the Cardinals, Angels, and Yankees organizations to competing on the PGA Tour. Barry reflects on surviving Q-School, the challenges of professional golf, and the perseverance required to win twice on what’s now the Korn Ferry Tour…with seven years between victories. Now a golf instructor and high school coach, Barry also shares practical playing tips to help you build confidence, improve consistency, and shoot lower scores.
Two remarkable journeys. Unforgettable stories. Valuable golf lessons.
It’s everything we love about the game on Next on the Tee…where golf legends live and your game gets better.
