The Auston Kim Series - Part 1

Asia's Major Delivers Another Big Name Winner

Hannah Green wins the HSBC Women's World Championship for her first victory in almost 500 days. Green came out on top of a stacked field in Singapore and plotted her way around a difficult Sentosa Golf Club. Meg and Matthew talk about why she flies under the radar despite her loaded resume and praise the current form of Aussie women's golf. They also discuss Auston Kim, a recurring guest on The Mixed Bag this year, and her impressive second place finish. A look ahead at the Blue Bay LPGA comes next, and the episode wraps with a discussion on non-Jeeno storylines at the majors.

A Homecoming Win for the Best Player in the World

Jeeno Thitikul came home to Thailand and delivered a win in front of friends, family, and thousands of diehard fans. Meg and Matthew chat with Sophie Walker of Sky Sports about following Jeeno all four days at the Honda LPGA Thailand. Sophie talks about Jeeno's sensible play, how she managed the demands of a pressure packed week, and what this win could mean for the quest for her first major. Sophie will be onsite at this week's HSBC Women's World Championship in Singapore, and the trio wraps the episode with a preview of "Asia's Major."

All Things Lorena Ochoa

Kevin Van Valkenburg joins Matthew and Meg to take us deep into the career of Hall of Famer Lorena Ochoa. From her humble beginnings in Guadalajara to her major breakthrough at St. Andrews, Ochoa left her mark on the sport and continues to impact thousands in Mexico. Reminiscing about one of the most loved players in Tour history gave us all a better appreciation for her accomplishments. Before Kevin joins the episode, Matthew and Meg recap Charley's victory in Riyadh and preview this week's action in Thailand.

A Prestige Episode Recorded in an Optimal Podcast Environment

Nelly Korda has won the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions. Somehow, someway, that's not the story of the LPGA's season opener. Meg and Matthew discuss Nelly's winless streak ending, and spend plenty of time talking about what makes an "optimal competitive environment", Lake Nona and its "prestige shape", and all other sorts of nonsense that made up a weekend to forget. On the back half of the episode, they answer a variety of listener questions about the new season, their favorite swings, and much more.
