About this episode
Richard Zokol discusses his experiences on the PGA Tour and the importance of mental mastery in sports and storytelling.

That lies perfectly for Canadian golfer Richard Zokol. A veteran of 412 PGA tournaments over three decades on tour from the early 1980s to 2000s, Zokol shares his application for mental mastery developed over time on the tenuous path of making a living on the links.
