Michael Campbell Reflects on Historic Career & Beating ‘Peak’ Tiger Woods

In this podcast, New Zealand golf legend Michael Campbell opens up like never before.

"Cambo" is one of the greatest golfers NZ has ever produced. His pinnacle was in 2005 when he beat Tiger Woods at the peak of his powers to win the US Open.

This podcast has plenty of incredible golf stories and we drop a lot of big names like Nicklaus, Norman, Daly and Fox. But this is so much more than a golf nostalgia conversation.

We talk about māori identity, mana, grief, family, humility, the cost of success, tall poppy culture, trust, and the strange limbo of achieving your life’s biggest goal , then having to figure out who you are afterwards.

This conversation is funny. It’s emotional. It’s honest. And it even has a story about a solo haka in front of Nelson Mandela!
