It's been long overdue to have Kate Smith on the podcast so we are happy to report she is in fact this week's guest! Kate talks about her great season Epson Tour, what flipped from her rookie year to this level of consistent play, and what she will do to prep for Q-School later this year. Then, Kate and Shane talk about how they got into business together and started Ground Under Repair. Kate talks about the balance between owning a business and playing high-level professional golf and how fun it is to get to do both.  They get into Kate's golf upbringing and growing up in a golf family and what it was like leading the Augusta National Women's Amateur after the opening round in 2021.  Kate is the best and we were so pumped to have her on. ____ Ground Under Repair Design: https://gurdesigns.com/ The new PING Proving Grounds Podcast: https://omny.fm/shows/ping-proving-grounds/playlists/podcast   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
