 In Part 2 of our conversation with Mike Blackham, Golf and Politics dives deep into Mike’s recent golf adventure through England’s elite courses, from his beloved Sunningdale to iconic tracks like Royal St. George's, St. George's Hill, and St. Enodoc. Mike and Rob break down why England’s diverse golf scene—featuring both heathland and links courses—might just be the most underrated golf destination on the planet. They discuss the difference between England, Scotland, and Ireland trips, share crazy travel stories (including Rob’s 27 hours solo in an English rental car), and explain why London’s heathland golf offers Pine Valley-level quality without the usual American price tag. The episode also touches on Japanese golf culture, B-side hidden gem courses, and includes a rapid-fire "10-round split" segment comparing some of the greatest golf courses in the U.S., UK, Japan, and beyond. Mike closes with his dream foursome—featuring Mitt Romney, Steph Curry, and Tiger Woods—and offers insight into the kind of leadership he believes America needs. In This Episode: Recapping 8 days of nonstop golf across England’s top courses Why Heathland golf rivals Pine Valley for architecture and pure fun The difference between A-side vs. B-side courses (and why the B-sides often surprise) Tips for planning an affordable golf trip to England that beats Bandon and Pebble How UK golf culture differs from the U.S. in access, conditioning & cost Personal favorites: Sunningdale Old & New, St. George’s Hill, Royal St. George’s, and more Secret planning tips for Americans building their first UK golf itinerary Get the full video version: https://www.youtube.com/@GolfandPolitics Join the email list to be notified about the latest episodes: https://golfandpolitics.com Learn more about your ad choices.
