Is Nate Sexton Going to Retire Soon? | The Trevor Staub Show Episode 19
Nate Sexton joins The Trevor Staub Show to discuss his playing career, current season, and retirement prospects. In this episode, Sexton shares his thoughts on how he's rounding into form after a shaky start to the year, including finishes at the OTB and Portland Open tournaments. He attributes his early performances to shaking off rust from the offseason and adjusting to challenging course conditions with heavy winds and longer courses that play to other players' strengths rather than his own skill set. With bigger fields and more talented competitors, Sexton emphasizes the need for him to improve his game and putts. The conversation also touches on his experience commentating and commentary work, as well as his title win at the 2017 USDGC championship.
