About this episode
In the powerful conclusion to our four-part conversation with two-time major champion Jane Geddes, we explore the remarkable evolution of a player who redefined what life after golf can look like. From the fairways to the front office, Jane’s post-playing journey is as bold and fascinating as her competitive career. Jane shares how she pivoted from the LPGA Tour to academia, earning a law degree and quickly transitioning into a leadership role within the LPGA’s executive team. She offers behind-the-scenes insight into her work with commissioners Carolyn Bivens and Mike Whan, including her integral role in bringing golf back to the Olympics and championing gender equity within the sport. But perhaps most surprising is her bold leap into the world of professional wrestling, taking on a high-profile executive role at WWE. Jane recounts the challenges of stepping into a new culture, leading talent relations, and even appearing on the hit reality series Total Divas . Her candor and humor shine as she reflects on those chaotic, unforgettable years. We then follow Jane back into the golf world, where she played key roles in the LPGA Amateur program and the Legends Tour, always striving to create meaningful opportunities for women in the game. Jane closes the episode with reflections on legacy, purpose, and the life lessons she’s learned both inside and outside the ropes. This finale is a testament to resilience, reinvention, and the enduring spirit of a true champion. Jane Geddes’ journey is not only unique in the world of professional golf—it’s one that continues to inspire. 🎙️ FORE the Good of the Game is proud to preserve and share the stories of golf’s most influential figures.
