About this episode

Steven Alker discusses his golf career and key strategies for success in his 50s.

In this episode of Hack It Out Golf, Mark, Greg, and Lou welcome Champions Tour star Steven Alker. They explore his journey from New Zealand amateur golf through the Canada, European, Korn Ferry, and PGA Tours, to his remarkable Champions Tour career: 11 wins, a perfect 104/104 cuts made, and 76 top-10s in just 104 events. Steven shares the key shifts in his game: smarter (not harder) preparation, mental freshness, energy conservation, a simple technical blueprint with strong face stability, and giving himself freedom to enjoy golf with less self-pressure in his 50s. A great listen on career longevity and unlocking peak performance later in life.
