This week's guest is at the top of his field in the game of golf. Eric Eshleman is very well well known as a teaching professional for PGA Tour players such as Graeme McDowell, Patton Kizzire, Smylie Kaufman, and Paul Dunne. Even former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, an avid golfer, turns to Eshleman for all of her golf swing needs.
But earlier this year, Eshleman, the director of golf at the Country Club of Birmingham, received an award that solidified him at the top. He was named the recipient of the 2019 PGA Golf Professional of the Year Award. This award is the highest annual honor given to a PGA of America Professional.
