Before his retirement from Golf Digest last month, Guy Yocom had one of the most unique jobs in golf. In his 36-year career, Yocom came to know virtually every great player in the modern game by way of extensive one-on-one interviews for the magazine. Yocom met with Ben Hogan in his Forth Worth office, stayed with Phil Mickelson in his first condo fresh out of college, and came to know firsthand Lee Trevino’s generosity and compassion. Along the way, Yocom not only produced some of Golf Digest’s most important interviews, he developed an appreciation for what these giants of the game were like as people, what motivated them, and how they compared to one another. In this episode of Local Knowledge, Dan Rapaport turns the tables on Yocom and asks the veteran golf journalist to share some of his favorite stories about the characters behind the headlines.
