On this edition of "The 19th Hole Golf Show," defending KitchenAid Senior PGA champion Rocco Mediate joins us to talk about:

  • his title defense
  • overcoming serious injury and how his experience informs his views on modern players and the modern swing
  • his relationship with fellow western Pennsylvanian Arnold Palmer
  • how his friendship with President Donald Trump developed
  • why he's enjoying golf now more than ever

We also start the show by talking about Jason Day's revelations about his mother's cancer diagnosis and why it's a lesson that we sometimes are too quick to draw to conclusions.
