Show by Fringe Coverage
The road to the LPGA is anything but easy. Behind every future star is a grind of tight budgets, endless travel and the pressure of chasing a life-changing opportunity. But what does that journey really look like, and what does it take to run the tour that serves as the final stepping stone? This week on Fringe Coverage, we sit down with Jody Brothers, head of the Epson Tour, to go behind the scenes of women's golf's developmental tour. After nearly 16 years with the PGA Tour, Jody shares his perspective on the economics of running the Epson Tour, the financial realities facing players, and the unique identity of a tour tasked with developing the next generation of LPGA stars. We also get into the challenges of growing the tour, what makes the Epson Tour different, and how it can continue to create meaningful opportunities for players chasing their LPGA dreams. It's a look at the grind, the business and the future of the Epson Tour with Jody Brothers. Follow us on Instagram @FringeCoveragePod Like the pod? Leave a review wherever you get your podcasts!
