Our wide-ranging chat with Emmitt Smith includes some great golf stories, including an all-time experience playing with Payne Stewart at the old Bob Hope Classic. Smith, joining us on behalf of IHOP, tells us about his history of getting into golf, some of his favorite parts of the game, and much more. Plus, we give our best bets for the Zurich Classic of New Orleans.
We were joined by a true GOAT on this week’s episode: Emmitt Smith, the legendary running back and avid golfer. Smith played in a bunch of celebrity pro-ams back in the day, and he shares one from the Bob Hope Desert Classic where he played with Payne Stewart, just a few months before he passed away.
Enjoy our chat with the NFL icon … and listen on for our best bets for the Zurich Classic of New Orleans.
