## Resource

Our new podcast features a conversation with Hazeltine National superintendent Chris Tritabaugh, who joins us to discuss how his approach to golf course maintenance has evolved over time – including his approach to organic matter testing, sand topdressing and fairway irrigation. We also explore the key priorities that guide his day-to-day decision-making, get his thoughts on building a strong team culture and advice for early-career superintendents. From pursuing excellence over perfection to prepping for a busy championship schedule at Hazeltine, it’s a great conversation.
