Ep 142 - From Tour Player to Top 100 Coach with Mike Malizia

JOIN THE TITLEIST GIVEAWAY HERE This week I’m joined by Mike Malizia, one of Golf Magazine’s Top 100 Teachers and the Director of Instruction at Admirals Cove in Jupiter, Florida. A former professional tour player, Mike has built an incredible reputation as both a coach and leader in the game. In this episode, we dive into Mike’s journey from playing professionally to becoming one of the game’s most respected instructors. We discuss: How he first fell in love with golf and his path to the professional tour The lessons from his playing career that shaped his coaching philosophy The mentors and coaches who influenced him along the way What he looks for when a new student comes to him for help How he balances technique with creativity and feel on the course The mental side of golf — confidence, pressure, and mindset training Advice for juniors who dream of playing on tour (and their parents too) The best piece of advice he’s ever received in life and golf Mike also reflects on the moments of failure that made him better, what separates good golfers from great ones, and what he would change about his own playing career if given the chance. If you want insights from one of the very best in the game, this episode is packed with wisdom for players, parents, and coaches alike.
