Golf Rehab Episode 7 - Josh Armstrong: PNG Open Winner & A Chat With His Mate

Send us a message, or your questions In this special episode of Golf Rehab, James sits down with his good mate Josh Armstrong, fresh off winning the PNG Open, and Pete gets to jump in with a few questions of his own. And because this is Golf Rehab, there’s plenty of banter along the way — including James giving Josh plenty of stick, Pete getting very interested in the stinger, and a few stories that probably wouldn't make it into a traditional golf interview. What starts as a chat between mates quickly turns into a look inside the reality of professional golf: from Josh growing up in Canberra and becoming Australia’s number one junior, to the Junior Presidents Cup, turning pro, travelling the Aussie circuit, and even sleeping in his car to get to tournaments. Josh talks us through the PNG Open win, including the wild back nine, the crucial moments on 15 and 17, THAT STINGER, and how breathwork helped him keep his head when the tournament was there to be won. We also get into his putting, his very specific five-degree-loft putter, playing alongside some of Australia’s biggest golfing names, and what winning the PNG Open means for the next few years of his career. A genuine chat with a good mate about the highs, lows, sacrifices and ridiculous moments that come with trying to make it as a professional golfer.
