Special Masters Episode!!!!
Weir, Augusta, and Winning The Green Jacket
There are moments in golf that define a career — and then there are moments that define a country.
In this special Masters episode of Tough Lies, Colin and Richard sit down with Mike Weir to revisit one of the most iconic weeks in golf history — his unforgettable victory at Augusta National.
From the pressure of Sunday at the Masters to the shots that shaped the tournament, Weir takes us inside what it really feels like to win a green jacket. But beyond the highlights, this is a conversation about what it takes to handle the moment — the preparation, the mindset, and the ability to stay present when everything is on the line.
The discussion also turns to the current state of the game, including a candid reflection on Tiger Woods and his recent issues off the course — and a deeper question about where concern, accountability, and perspective should really lie when it comes to one of golf’s most iconic figures.
And in a uniquely Canadian moment, Weir shares what it was like to drop the puck at a Toronto Maple Leafs game while wearing the green jacket — a surreal intersection of sport, country, and legacy.
It’s a rare look inside Augusta through the eyes of a champion — and a reminder that the Masters isn’t just about great golf, it’s about how you respond when the moment finds you.
“Because the toughest lies in golf aren’t always on the course.”

What is Tough Lies ~ The Golfer's Podcast?
Tough Lies – The Golfer’s Podcast is where golf’s harder conversations finally get airtime.
Hosted by PGA Tour veteran Richard Zokol and marketing strategist Colin McDougall, Tough Lies goes beyond equipment launches and leaderboard chatter to explore the real issues shaping the modern game — from the mental side of competition and modern professional golf, to the narratives and assumptions shaping the game, questioned thoughtfully, critically, and constructively.
Each episode blends insider perspective with candid conversation, featuring stories from inside the ropes, lessons learned the hard way, and thoughtful takes on where the game is headed — and why.
This isn’t hot takes for clicks. It’s honest dialogue, grounded experience, and constructive debate — for golfers who love the game enough to question it.
If you’ve ever thought “someone should talk about this” while watching golf… this is that podcast.
