 “I am incredibly excited to join the 5 Clubs team,” said Carpenter.  “And I’m just as excited to give another voice to college golf through the conversations I want to have with other college players, coaches, administrators and really anyone who college golf has made an impact on their lives.  I can’t wait to get started.”

 The addition of Carpenter makes her the fourth contributor to join the 5 Clubs platform.  Co-Founder Gary Williams launched 5 Clubs, and his podcast, in September of 2021 with 6-time major winner Phil Mickelson as his first guest.  ESPN’s Jay Bilas and renowned golf course designer Gil Hanse joined 5 Clubs in January and launched their first podcasts earlier this month.

 “One of the goals of the 5 Clubs platform is to be part of multiple on-going golf conversations and college golf plays a very important role in the game,” said Williams.  “And we think Emma will bring a lot to the table and most importantly she is a voice within the college space now so her conversations will resonate with others who follow the college game.  We are incredibly excited to add her to our growing roster and can’t wait to see the types of conversations she brings to life.”

 Carpenter sat down for a conversation with Williams recently to talk more about her upcoming podcast and what started her love of golf.
