Dedication and camaraderie continue to define the Golfweek Amateur Tour, and this week’s episode brings those values front and center.

Tim Newman and Chris Rocha spotlight July Player of the Month, Dan Hubbard, whose commitment to the Louisiana North Tour goes far beyond his own game. Driving 4–7 hours from Texas to compete, Dan not only plays but also pours into the community, knowing every member by name, hosting pre-tournament “Pick ’Em” podcasts with his partner Trey, and creating a family-like atmosphere that elevates the entire tour.

We also dive into the story of 1st Lieutenant Marshall Daniel of the El Paso/Las Cruces Tour. A West Point graduate and active Army officer, Marshall’s balance of military service and golf excellence is nothing short of inspiring. Fresh off rounds of 66–68, he shares how discipline, course management, and passion fuel his competitive edge.

As the regular season nears its close, tour directors nationwide are nominating players whose commitment extends beyond the scorecard; driving hours to events, uplifting fellow competitors, and embodying what makes this golf community so unique. With the National Championship in Hilton Head fast approaching this October, the countdown is officially on!

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• The incredible dedication of Dan Hubbard and how his efforts shaped the Louisiana North Tour
• Why camaraderie often matters more than course quality
• Marshall Daniel’s military discipline and championship-level golf performances
• Stories from across the country of members going above and beyond for their local tours
