Interview with Dave Vayda & Caleb Smith + WAG Tour Final, AMA Events and more!

Tom and Pat kick off the show with a look at the WMF's World Adventure Golf (WAG) Tour final, which sets the stage for our interviewees (3:50). With the AMA (and minigolf in general) season now in full gear they looked at two recent tournaments in NJ and MN (15:24) and then ran through a bunch of US and international results (28:15).

After all the updates, it was time to bring on Dave Vayda and Caleb Smith from Connecticut who made the WAG Tour final based on their placement in the Matterhorn International Pro-Am in 2023 (36:50). Pat has been working with both as they prepped for the final and the interview was just after they returned form the Czech Republic. For both, it was their first international competition. They chatted about the difficulty of the tournament, the amazing atmosphere around the tournament by players and organizers and just the overall experience of the trip.
