In this special episode of Course Language, thanks to Callaway, we're joined by 4-time US PGA Tour winner and back-to-back Australian Open champion, Aaron Baddeley.

At (13:52) Aaron opens up on how life as a professional golfer changes once marriage and kids come into the picture, before reflecting on leading the US Open in 2007 alongside Tiger in the final group at Oakmont, and just how good Tiger was to play with in the same group (15:55).

At (21:30) Badds discusses what motivates him now at 45, what it meant to play in the Presidents Cup at Royal Melbourne in 2011 (22:34), and shares his thoughts on the current professional golf landscape (25:04). At (31:15) he explains the difficulties of getting back to play an Australian summer, before giving us an insight into how he has remained one of the best putters on the US Tour for so long — including some simple tips for our listeners to become better putters (32:30) — and the mentors who shaped him along the way (35:27).

At (37:50) Badds finishes with a Quick 9, answering nine rapid-fire questions on what shaped his golfing life.
