Episode 205: A New Spin On Augusta’s Magic

Gene Wojciechowski has been to the Masters more times than he can count. Now, after covering golf for ESPN for decades, he’s written his first golf novel. On the latest TGJ Podcast, Tom Coyne visits with Wojciechowski to talk All Carry —a story about a down-on-his-luck sportswriter who discovers a set of Jack Nicklaus's old clubs and suddenly finds himself playing in the Masters with the Golden Bear’s ability. Wojciechowski opens up about what drew him to write fiction after a lifetime covering the news of sports and why he believes golf's deeper magic lends itself to a great novel. He also reflects on covering Tiger, his favorite memories from Augusta, and how sports media has evolved over his career. Wojciechowski understands what makes golf special, and in this conversation, he shares why. The Golfer's Journal and this podcast are made possible by reader support.
